How to arrange albums in alphabetical order?

iTunes was bad enough before; I had to work hard to get my music sorted on it. Now the updated programme is utterly dreadful. Albums are not listed alphabetically any more, and I can't see the individual pieces of music within an album. Can someone tell me how to get albums listed alphabetically, for a start?

Thank you for bringing this up and for the useful info - I have found the updated iTunes incredibly muddling. Why, if they were going to change it, didn't they improve it instead of make it less useable?
I have over 4000 'songs' and most are classical, and I, too, spent years cataloguing them with composer name, conductor, orchestra, etc. so that iTunes could sort them in a way that was useful to me and easy to find. Now, the grid with albums is not in any particular order at all - how do you find something like that?
What I find to be the biggest problem of all in the update: you can no longer search for a particular 'song' by a word in title, album title, composer/artist, etc. just by typing it in the search box and searching all of your tracks - that list is no longer there. As far as I can make out, you can only search through particular playlists. If anyone has any information about this, I would be so grateful! - Thanks.
(p.s. - I know that this section is iTunes for Windows, but I have a Mac and I have not found the answer to my question anywhere)

I wish to put my photo albums in alphabetical order. Advice was to right click on pane at left. I do not have a left pane on my i-pad and only have touch screen,what do I "right click" with and how do I get a "left pane" in my Photos folder?

I would like to put my i-pad photo albums into alphabetical order. The advice received previously was to "right click" on an album in the left pane. I do not have a left pane in my photos folder, how would I get this? Also I only have touch screen so what would I "right click" with? thank you

I don't have iPhoto on my iPad, so I can't help with that, but you must have looked at advice for a Mac computer? Maybe browse the iPhoto for iOS forum?

Albums in alphabetical order

is it possible to organize the mobileme albums in alphabetical order in iPhoto?

No, not automatically. You an move them manually and then republish and that should rearrange the order online.
Unfortunately we can't sort the MMe gallery albums like we can regular iPhoto albums.

So no matter what order you add or put things into the object it will only return them in alphabetical order.

No, you will either have to create a comparator, a sorter, or write the compareTo in such a way that it sorts your data by your wanted fields.
So, given the class Student, you probably want something like this:
public class Student implements Comparable<Student> {
     public int compareTo(Student s) {
          if (getLastName().compareTo(s.getLastName()) != 0)
               return getLastName().compareTo(s.getLastName();
          if (getFirstName().compareTo(s.getFirstName()) != 0)
               return getFirstName().compareTo(s.getFirstName();
          return 0;
}After that, you may sort your list of students with Collections.sort(myListOfStudents);
Alternatively, you may do it like this:
Collections.sort(myListOfTypeSomething, new Comparator<Something>() {
     public int compare(o1, o2) {
          return o1.getAlphaSomething().compareTo(o2.getAlphaSomething());
     });

How to arrange albums in CoverFlow of Classic

somebody tell me how to arrange albums in ipod classic's coverflow mode followed by the name of each album, rather than the name of each artist. This is REALLY troublesome when a album has multiple artists. Many thanks

Can't be done. It has been the subject of much discussion here in the forum.

I've tried everything I can think of to get my Iphone 4S to play albums like an Ipod does. All it ever does is play the songs but not the albums in alphabetical order. I used to think I was reasonably intelligent until I butted heads with this phone.

Yes i've tried all of that. I've turned it all the way on and off and erased all of my music and put it back on and nothing works. And with the breaking up CDs and putting into compilation categories i have already fixed all of that stuff. It's fine it just doesn't show up in the list of artists. I can find the album in the songs category and the albums category it's just it doesn't show tha name of the artist. All of the other albums that i downloaded before i updated my itunes to th most recent update are fine. It's just the two that i downloaded afterwards. Thanks for trying though.

How to organize photos in alphabetical order?

Normally it was't a problem to show photos on apple tv in an alphabetical order...today it seems, that apple tv organze it just by date of photography. does somebody knows how to solve this problem???

To be honest, I've forgotten whether the photos are ordered alphabetically or by date.
I usually put photos in an album and sort them by Date (iPhoto > View > Sort by) and then arrange them in the order I want (more often than not that's the same order as by date, but not always) which then changes the Sort by option to 'Manually'.
Once they are in the order I want them, I batch change (iPhoto > Photos > Batch Change) both the title and the date (the date only if I have re-ordered them myself). The title I will set to say 'John's 5th Birthday' and iPhoto will append 001, 002 etc in the order I have set them manually. Batch changing the date will also put them chronologically into the order I have chosen.
If I change the date on an album of photos, I tend to set it appropriately. Sometimes it may just be one or two photos that need changing, if for example someone else has given you a couple and the date on their camera is slightly out from yours. Other times I might be quicker just changing them all, so the 30 photos from John's birthday started at noon on February 1 and finished at 3.00 pm will be set to noon on February 1 with each photo adding 6 minutes.
So for me it doesn't matter whether photos are sorted alphabetically by title or chronologically by date, they always appear in the order I want them.

How to import images in alphabetical order???

How may I import images in alphabetical order? I have a stack of images that I have renamed so that they are in alphabetical order. However, when I import these ~100 images into iPhoto, it sorts them in some other order (perhaps, although I am not sure, by time taken). If iPhoto does not allow one to import alphabetically (although I sure hope it does, since this would be very convenient), any ideas how I may modify the image taken time so that I can get this set imported in the order that I need?
Thank you very much!

What print service are you using? Is it an online print service? Or an iPhoto plug-in? To upload to a website you should export the photos (a Desktop folder is convenient) and choose the exports for the upload.
If you are using the Finder to see a list of files, the Finder always lists them in alpha-numeric order. To get a list of photos to export to your Desktop (for uploading) and preserve your order, try this: create an Album, sort them the way you want, then Export to a Desktop folder. In the Export dialog, choose "use Album name" as the filename option. This will preserve your order upon export and name the files "Album name - 01.jpg, Album name - 02.jpg, ..., Album name - 99.jpg." It only works with 99 or fewer photos in the album, so for more photos create another album.

How to get songs into alphabetical order (iPhone 4)

Hi all, ive currently switched from a 3GS to an iPhone 4, but however my i click the Music app, and click 'Songs' tab, there is no alphabetical order? (Below in the picture) Its just done by ABC etc. But no in that little tab where on the right it shows the alphabet and for example you click 'M' and it takes you to your songs that start with 'M'.
From this:
To this:
So how do i get it to display with alphabetical and with the tab where you can click a letter and it takes you to songs starting with that letter you choose?

Hey peter2009,
You may want to manually input the metadata for the songs. To do so, highlight the songs that you would like to group in an album > Right-click > Get Info (Be careful, you only want to edit the Album information).
For more information, see the following resource:

How to switch from reverse alphabetical order?

Please forgive a newbie question: when I open a list view of my hard drives in Finder, the names of the folders are listed in reverse alphabetical order, with the Z's on top, and the A's on the bottom. How can I change it so that it displays the A's on top and the Z's on bottom, whenever I open the view? Thanks in advance.

Click the "Name" bar, so the small triangle faces up again.
You know you can also sort by Date Modified, etc, just click on the column's topbar.
