HT201317 Album Photo Order Changes when Posted to Photostream

Okay, I really liked the old iWeb app.  When I built albums the order in the album remained the same when posted to a web page. 
Am I missing something?  Why does Photostream put photos back into number/date order?  Can this be overridden?
Thanks!

The order is probably alpha-numeric, based on the File Name of the photos. iPhoto allows you to change the photo's title, but to change the file name you must export a copy outside of iPhoto.
Select your album. Then export to a desktop folder, with "use album name" checked. If your album is named "Winter" then the photos will be names "Winter 01," "Winter 02," etc. Your order should be preserved.
If your photo titles are important, you could pad the beginning of each title with a numeral. Then export with "use title" checked, and the file name will become the photo's title.

  • Photo order changes when burn CD

    I created iPhoto album in a certain order. When I burn CD the order changes, seemingly randomly. The order of the show is important. How do I prevent this? Thank you, MP

  • Album song order changes when synced to i-pod

    On I-tunes the songs in the albums are in the correct playback order but when I sync it to my i-pod the some of the songs are in the wrong order. Everything looks ok when I look at the "get info" section. Any ideas?

    looks like I figured out something that worked for me. In itunes I selected a playlist on my ipod, inside that playlist I selected an entire album by shift clicking the first and last song. In this example I'll use "album x" which has always been out of order on my ipod...after I selected the entire album I chose "get info" when the window pops up I saw that the "album artist" box was empty but the "artist" box wasn't. I just typed the same thing that was in the "artist" box into the "album artist" box and hit ok...after a quick resync "album x" which has always been out of order is now all of a sudden in order...and it has worked for multiple albums on my ipod, especially the sound tracks, give it a shot and let me know if it works for you.
    Thanks

  • Album song order changes when imported or burned to CD

    I hope someone can help
    When I buy a song the order of these songs is changed once it is in my library, and it is displayed backwards for instance if there are twelve songs number 1 will become 12 and so forth.
    The same happens when I make a back up copy of whatever i bought
    What am I doing wrong?

    More background. When I export my iTunes library to an xml file, and view the file in a text editor, I see that the tracks that appear in the wrong order on the iPod are in the correct order in the xml file, with the correct track numbers. On the way to the iPod, something weird happens.
    Would be great if someone could take a shot at this.

  • Album photo order in Apple TV 2 mobile me galleries = Failure

    While the order of my photos in my iPhoto albums is preserved on Apple TV 2 via 'Computers' it is clearly using image file names to sort if you go in via 'Internet>Mobile Me'. This is especially annoying since you can view your albums in order not only on the web but also on the iPhone's 'Gallery' app. Since both the iPhone and the Apple TV 2 use iOS4, one would think that Apple TV 2 would be able to do a simple but very important thing like preserve photo order within albums. One of the major reasons for getting one of these for my dad was so he could easily view baby photos on his tv. It's annoying to watch my baby go from 3 months old to birth to 1 month old in my albums! When friends try to show vacation photos from their albums... well forget it.
    It's hard to tell a photo story when all of your photos are completely out of order; which is very much the case if you happen to be combining photos from more than one camera since different cameras will be naming the files with different prefixes.
    My only solution so far is to import all photos that will be used in an album into iPhoto, batch change their titles to the 'time and date' they were taken, then export those photos using 'titles as filename' option, then deleting all the photos iPhoto, then reimporting them. That way when they are put onto Mobile Me/Apple TV 2 they will be at least in chronological order. What a complete pain in the ---.
    Any other solutions to this problem?

    I suspect that you will have to re-edit the metadata to accomplish your goal. As images are copied and moved this is often modified (place/geotag, faces, dates).......... Just a though. You can download the photos and both check it and if necessary change it in iPhoto

  • Photo size changes when printing

    This is my problem. When I view a photo in my event, I am happy with the image. When I go to print, I find that parts of my image are cut off. It looks like the image zoomed in a little. How can I print the image exactly like it is displayed in the event? Also, this doesn't seem to change when I print different sizes, parts of the original image are always missing on the print.

    Crop the photo to 11 x 14 before printing. That will insure that what you see in the cropped image will end up in the printed 11 x 14 image.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar.

  • Contact Detail Order Changing When Syncing

    I have contacts in Mac OS X address book and on my iphone. Within the contacts on my mac I have the datails "home"/"mobile" etc for different people. When I sync my iphone 3G with my mac, the order changes on my iphone to "mobile"/"home". The same happens when I create a contact on my iphone, the order changes on the mac when I sync. This is a manual sync, not mobileme. Any way to stop it doing this?
    Thanks

    Ever since upgrading to 2.0, my syncing takes forever and my addressbook won't synch in the order chosen and seen on the mac either. this used to be so easy

  • Date ordered changing when certain parameters are updated.

    Hello All,
    I came across an Issue where DATE ORDERED is changing when certain parameters are updated, such as agreement. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Veronica.

    Hello Veronica,
    Negotiation Phase is only for Quotes - it does not apply to Sales orders. You need to create a Defaulting Condition template similar to that called 'In Fulfilment Phase' for Sales orders.
    Here are the details:
    (1) Navigate to Setup >> Rules >> Search for Application='Order Management' and Entity = 'Order Header' >> Once the rules appear click on 'Defaulting Condition template' >> Under 'In Negotiation Phase' create another Validaton template named 'In Fulfillment Phase' >> Enter any Group# >>Under Validation Rules, Select Attribute as 'Transaction Phase' >> Mark it '=' 'Fulfillment' >> Save
    (2) Click Tools (top menu option) >> Generate Defaulting Handler package (you can also run the conc program)
    (3) Go to the Ordered Date defaulting rule and do as I had mentioned below.
    Please let me know if that helped.

  • Album track order changed on Zen Mi

    I have found when transferring whole albums onto the Micro via windows media, the order of the tracks is changed to alphabetical order on the Zen. This obviously renders some albums a nonsense when this happens. Have I unwittingly checked some option in the menu or is it something to do with Windows Media Player? Any ideas?

    Thats really peculiar... my micro once showed a 5 minute song as being 3 seconds, and the progress bar at the bottom was full for the whole song, but after playing once, it automatically fixed itself. I know it would be a hassle, but maybe plugging your micro into a wall outlet, and haveing it play through the book would fix it.

  • Photo order changed with iOS 5

    I have had roughly 6000 photos stored on my iPhone and iPad, which have always sorted by date picture taken.  Now they are sorting by file name.  How do I get them to sort again in chronological order?  I do not want to hav to rename all of them!  These photos were synced from my PC.

    To me it seems that the ordering is only broken in album/folders that were imported. If you create any new album on your device, sorting is as with iOS 4 (by date/time)
    This gives an easy way (workaround) to have photos be sorted the old way with iOS5:
    Import all your photos via iTunes. They will be in wrong order in the imported folders/album(s).
    Create a new album
    Copy all photos into the new album. (You end up with two albums with the same content. As the pictures are linked only into the second album, this should not use any extra space)
    The new album contains photos in the right order.
    Never use the old album, just irgnore it. Once Appple fixes the stupid bug, you may remove the album you manually created.
    Best,

  • Sort order changes when adding a phonetic last name?

    I have my contacts sorted and displayed by first name. If I add a phonetic last name to a contact, it changes the order of that person to the top of list. Why wouldn't it leave them in the first name alphabetic order?

    Ok this is what I'm doing...
    My last name is spelled with "liter."
    Siri pronounces that like "a 2 liter of soda."
    So I've added the phonetic last name field on the contact card to help her pronounce it like "lighter."
    On my contact info,
    First name: Bill
    Last name: Hinderliter
    Phonetic last name: Hinderlighter
    If I delete the phonetic last name field... It sorts the contact perfectly.
    If I add it, the contact is placed on top of all the "B's" in the list.
    On a side note... I found another website with a temporary fix to this problem. The person there says to use the nickname field instead of phonetic field when getting Siri to pronounce things.

    Thanks again for your time.

  • Browser window album sort order change?

    Hi,
    do you know if there's any way to change the sort order for albums on the browser window?
    I'd like to view the album list for each artist sorted by release date order (as in discography) rather than alphabetically.

    Colin,
    Change the View option to include Year then click on
    the column heading.
    that works on the main window, not in the browser window.
    No matter what column I click in the main song window, the browser windows remain alphabetically sorted.

  • .swf timing changes when posted to server

    I have been using Captivate for years, and have never seen this error before. I currently have Captivate 3. I have a 6 slide file with a mix of PowerPoint imports and captured movies. On the last slide, I have an imported PowerPoint animation where I use the Credits Custom Animation on a text box to scroll a list of report names across the screen. The end effect looks like movie credits.
    Here is the issue:  The timing of the credits is perfect when I play the published files from my PC. I send it to my network admin, and it plays perfect when she runs it from her PC. But when she uploads it to our Windows 2003 Intranet server, the timing of the movie is off. The credits finish rolling way before they should. So it seems like maybe the file is playing too fast?
    Once recent change we made to the server was to add the .flv file type to the Mime directory. I don't know what that means, but I know we weren't able to get .flvs to play until we did this about a month ago. An earlier version of this file had been on the server prior, and we didn't notice an issue. But I had to change the audio and now that we've reposted it, we have this problem.
    Also, I upgraded my Vista machine to Windows 7 last week. I only have one problem with Captivate since the upgrade. I can't hear the audio when I play the slide in edit mode. But I do hear the audio when I preview the project. I don't think Windows 7 is causing my current problem with the .swf.
    So it stands to reason that one of these recent changes might be the culprit. But I thought it was worth posting here in case any of you have seen this before. Here's hoping!!!
    Thanks in advance!

    I'd like to post a link, but like I said, it's only internal.
    When I look at the HTML, it's set to black (background-color:
    #000000). Also, when I load it, the page itself is black, but the
    background of the Flash *only* has turned white. I can load the
    exact same page on my local drive and it comes up black. I've got
    publish settings to Flash 8 (my version) and AS 2.0. I checked that
    first because I've published lower in the past and had
    issues.
