How to change the order on my photos within a file?

When I sync my phone and it downloads a photo folder, no matter how I organize the photos in the folder they ends up on my phone in the order the photo was taken. I would like to organize my photos in the order I would like. Can you advise please.

Incidentally, these were the instructions that I originally followed to try to change my user name:
1. Enable the root user.
2. Log in as root.
3. Navigate to the /Users folder.
4. Select the Home folder with the short name you want to change, and rename it just like you would rename any folder. Keep in mind that the shortname must be all lowercase, with no spaces, and only contain letters.
5. Use the Accounts pane in System Preferences to create a new user with the short name that you used in the previous step.
6. Click OK when "A folder in the Users folder already has the name 'short name'. Would you like to use that folder as the Home folder for this user account?" Note: This will correct the ownership of all files in the Home folder, and avoid permissions issues with the contents.
--> this is the part when things went wonky. I was never able to create the new user with the old shortname - I didn't even get the dialog box in step 6, it just gave me a red arrow and kept telling me that shortname was already being used, I didn't even have the option to use it for the new account.
7. Choose Log Out from the Apple menu.
8. Log in as the newly created user. You should be able to access all of your original files (on the desktop, in Documents, and in the other folders of this Home).
9. After verifying that your data is as expected, you can delete the original user account via the Accounts pane of System Preferences.
10. Disable the root user.
I think I'm just going to leave things alone though. It's not a big enough deal to merit all this trouble! Thanks for all the help though! I really appreciate it.

  • How to change the order of albums iOS 8?

    I recently upgraded from an iPhone 5 to a 6 Plus. Everything is fine except for the fact that some of my music is in the wrong order. There are some groups that released multiple albums in the same year, and I would like them to be in the order of when they were released. On my 5 I was able to put them in the right order by going on a computer, changing the sorting, then update iTunes Match to have it change on my phone as well. (example; group came out with album "1" and "2" same year and it defaults to "2" first, then "1." I was able to change it on the iPhone 5 to be in the right order by changing how they are sorted from my computer but that doesn't work on the 6 Plus.) I would like to order it where it goes top to bottom, with the newest on top going down. How would I do this?
    Thanks

    Hi Jason,
    How to change the order of tables within sheets
    Make a table active by clicking in it once to select that table, then drag it by the 'bullseye' (top left, I have placed a red circle to show the bullseye):
    After dragging the table down:
    Table 1 is now below Table 2.
    The blue line is an Alignment Guide
    Two types of Guide:
    1. Menu > View >Show Rulers. Drag Alignment Guides from a ruler to where you want them.
    2. Menu > Numbers > Preferences > Rulers > Alignment Guides. Turn on (tick) both guides. That allows you to align objects with *each other* (as well as with the ruler guides). These guides help to align objects left, middle, right, top, bottom.
    Alignment Guides do not show unless you are moving an object.
    to drag/move table to another sheet in the one file
    Not possible in Numbers 3. The Sheets Pane has gone. Instead, select the entire table (click once in the table to make it active, then click on the bullseye). Copy (or Cut if you are brave). Go to another Sheet and Paste.
    Also can you change the size of sheet tab width on tab toolbar, so I can see more sheets at once??
    No. Let's hope this will be added in future updates. However, you can drag a Sheet tab left or right to reorder them.
    Another tip: each Sheet tab shows the contents of that Sheet, with some options such as Duplicate and Delete:
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • How to change the order of users in appearance of login screen?

    Hello!
    Because we often switch to a user,
    which is listed last in login screen,
    we want move them to the second place.
    How to change the order of users in appearance of login screen?
    Thank you for a tip
    Erhy

    The order users show up on the login screen is the way they are ordered under the
    C:/Users directory. This is usually alphabetical, AFAIK there is no other way to change the order other than to change the username to something that starts with a letter that will be higher alphabetically.

  • How to change the order of the fields in the queryoutputnode in OVS.

    How to change the order of the fields in the queryoutputnode in OVS.

    The actual requirment is to re-arrange the elements of the queryoutput node, to look more organised
    say for ex.
    Seq 1:
    c code                            company name                          g/l ac                g/l ac description  
    Seq2 :
    g/l ac description             c code                                       g/l ac                company name  
    Seq 1 way of representation is more organised that Seq2. How can we achieve this re-arranging of ordering in the queryoutputnode.

  • How can I change the order in which photos are presented on an Apple TV?

    I am showing photos on my Apple TV via my Apple MacBook, iTunes and Home Sharing.
    That all works nicely for me, except that I wish to change the order in which a few photos
    are being presented.  How can I change the presentation order on the Apple TV?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You'll need to change the order in iPhoto. Open the album you wish to re-order, manually sort them to the order you want, then use the time and date and batch change options as applicable from the photos menu to retag your photos.

  • How to change the order of photos?

    When uploading pictures from a pc through iTunes it mixes up the order of the pictures ( although they were created one after another with continous numbers in the name of the files) . And in iPad you do not have the ability to change the order of the pictures for a slideshow , or to move the pictures within the album... Why? Is there a way to control that?

    From the Library Module you can change the sort order.
    Here is a screen shot:

  • How to change the order of pictures on Apple TV

    The pictures shown on the TV are not in date/time or file number order.  How do you change the order of the pictures on the screen?

    I have struggled with this last year. The sort order of pictures is different in iPhoto, iPad, Apple TV. There are some tricks to get the desired order, but I never managed to get this consistent. The Apple TV has no option for sorting unfortunately.
    Maybe things are better now, but I have given up on showing photos using iTunes.
    Nowadays I am streaming photos from my NAS and I can show them in any order I want.

  • How to change the order of the albums?

    how can i change the order of the albums from oldest to newest to a different order?

    First off I'll say that iPhoto for iOS and iPhoto on your Mac are different applications. They have similar features but the are different in many ways.
    On the iPad you cannot change the order of photo albums in iPhoto for iOS. You can change the order of albums in the Photo app but these changes will not come through in iPhoto for iOS. IPhoto for iOS will also rearrange photos within albums so that the order in iPhoto for iOS is different from the order in the Photos app. There's no way to change this.
    iPhoto on your Mac is a much more powerful application when it comes to organizing photos and albums.

  • Report Painter: How to change the order of lines in selection screen

    Dear Gurus on Report Painter,
    how can I change the order of the lines (where the values for the variable selection of my cost center report are entered) in the selection screen of a report painter report? The Selection screen looks awful.
    Is there also a possibility to add another description to each line of the selection screen?
    Thank you very much for your advice.
    Best regards Timo

    I am afraid you have much choice in choosing the order of the selection parameters. However, with the developer's access you may.
    This is how!
    Step 1: If it is a standard report, copy to your own report. and assign it to a report group. and execute.
    Step 2: When you execute, and the selection appears, go to systems>status and here , copy the program name (it may look something like GP46LP6VEDORBSA2IHWYSR4TL58020)
    Step3: Go to SE38 and enter the above derived program name with a view to re-arrange the line withing the program, with reference to selection parameters. 
    For example: I have a selection screen in the following order:
      Controlling area            
      Fiscal Year                 
      From period                 
      To period                   
      Plan version                                                                               
    Cost center group           
      Or value(s)                 
      Cost element group          
      Or value(s)                 
    The corresponding program that drives this order is in the program and would look like this,
    SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK VALUE_SELECTION
                     WITH FRAME TITLE TEXT-003.
    <b> PARAMETERS: $1KOKRE  LIKE CCR1S-KOKRS .
      PARAMETERS: %1KOKRE  LIKE CCR1S-KOKRS MODIF ID IN4.</b>
    <b><i> for controlling area</i></b>
      PARAMETERS: $1GJAHR  LIKE COSP-GJAHR .
      PARAMETERS: %1GJAHR  LIKE COSP-GJAHR MODIF ID IN4.
    <b><i> for fiscal year</i></b>
      PARAMETERS: $1PERIV  LIKE COSP-PERBL .
      PARAMETERS: %1PERIV  LIKE COSP-PERBL MODIF ID IN4.
    <b><i> for period from</i></b>
      PARAMETERS: $1PERIB  LIKE COSP-PERBL .
      PARAMETERS: %1PERIB  LIKE COSP-PERBL MODIF ID IN4.
    <b><i> for period to</i></b>
    etc.
      PARAMETERS: $1VERP   LIKE COSP-VERSN .
      PARAMETERS: %1VERP   LIKE COSP-VERSN MODIF ID IN4.
      PARAMETERS: $1VALUTP LIKE CCR1S-VALUTYP MODIF ID IN4 .
      PARAMETERS: %1VALUTP LIKE CCR1S-VALUTYP MODIF ID IN4.
    SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK VALUE_SELECTION.
    ......... set variables ..............................................
    SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK SET_SELECTION
                     WITH FRAME TITLE TEXT-004.
      PARAMETERS: $1KOSET  LIKE RKSB1-KSGRU.
      PARAMETERS: %1KOSET  LIKE RGSBS-SETNR MODIF ID IN5.
      SELECT-OPTIONS _1KOSET  FOR CCR1S-KOSTL .
      PARAMETERS: $1KSTAR  LIKE RKSB1-KAGRU.
      PARAMETERS: %1KSTAR  LIKE RGSBS-SETNR MODIF ID IN5.
      SELECT-OPTIONS _1KSTAR  FOR CCR1Z-KSTAR .
    SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK SET_SELECTION.<i></i><b></b>
    If you want fiscal year to appear first, you try just copying the coding relating to fiscal year just above the coding for Controlling area.
    Extend the same logic for what you may want to get.

  • How to change the order of the tabs in featured news?

    Hi,
      I use the 'Featured News' widget on my company website and it has 10 tabs. The newest item is at the top but when I add a new tab it goes to the bottom and I can find no way of changing the order of the tabs so that everytime I add new news I have to copy each tab and it's content down one place in order to get an empty tab at the top to put the new news item in. This takes an unneccesssarily long period of time. Can someone please let me know if there is an easy way to change the order of the tabs?
      Thanks very much ;0)
            Justine

    Just click on the title tab until it is isolated (one click before the text is highlighted) and move the tab to the position you want.
    Thanks for your reply. I've done this in the past but found that the position of the tab in terms of it's place in the hierachy doesn't change so if I move the top tab down one, the way you've described and then upload the page I find that the second tab down (which was the first previously) displays first. How can I change the 'position of the tabs interms of their hierachy in the widget?
      Thanks again

  • How to change the order of columns in a speadsheet?

    It seems this would be completely straight-forward. However I can find nothing in help to tell me how to do this. I am using a spreadsheet for data so want to be able to rearrange in the order of the columns. How does one do this?
    Thanks.
    John

    I don't want to move or sort the data. What I want
    to do is change the order of the columns. I have
    columns A through P. I want to move columns M, N,
    O, and P to come after A and B so I can see the
    information in these 6 columns in one glance.
    How does one do that?
    One doesn't, but there are altenatives.
    1.
    Select columns C..L by clicking and dragging across the column headers.
    Go Format (menu) > Column width.
    Set the width to 0 (zero) and click OK.
    This hides columns C..L, showing A, B, M, N, O, P...
    You can still enter data into cells in columns C..L by clicking on a cell in column B, then pressing tab to move through the hidden columns.
    To restore the display, select columns B..M then reset the column width to a visible value (the current width of column B will be the default).
    2.
    Copy the values in columns A, B, M, N, O, and P into a set of contiguous columns. Set a New View to show these columns in a separate window.
    Example:
    Go Window > New View
    Drag the new window that opens up and left to cover the initial window.
    In AA1, enter =A1
    Select AA1..AB1 then Fill right (command-R)
    In AC1, enter =M1
    Select AC1..AF1 then Fill right
    Select AA1..AFn where n is the last row in which you have data then Fill down (command-D)
    This copies the contents of the cells you want to view together into a set of cells that are together. You can view them by going to the Window menu and switching between the two views of the same spreadsheet. Or you can skip the step of creating a second View, and scroll from one location in the sheet to the other.
    The usual caveat applies: Anytime you're making extensive changes to a document, work with a COPY and keep the original as a backup you can revert to should a misstep along the way result in data loss.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • How to change the order of entries on the podcast or blog pages?

    Hi,
    I tried to move entries in the entry area on the podcast page to change the existing order but it seems they stay in the way they were created. Is there any opportunity to change the order of entries after they were created?
    Thank you,

    I'm having the same problem. How do I do this? I just
    hit delete entries. So the blog doesn't show up on
