*** iOS4 Update: Photo Albums No Longer Alphabetical Order  ***

Hey all, I have a 3GS and just did the 4.0 update today. Everything works fine, no errors, etc........but when I go into my Photo Albums...
...and for example; Click "My Vacation". The photo album opens up at the bottom, so I have to scroll upwards to see the photos, where-as before you always started at the top of the album and scrolled down to see all your photos.
Not only that, they are completely out of alphabetical order. I've went into the folder itself on my computer and made sure it was organized.
My friends phone did the same thing on an entirely seperate computer. Any ideas how to get it alphabetical again?

This is a MAJOR problem for me. Several of my photo albums are actually screen shots of Hebrew texts for prayers. Until now, the photos displayed in filename order, so that the screens shots of text were in the proper order. Now they do not!
I use a PC, and I am not going to buy a Mac just to have the power to re-order my photos within an album! That's ridiculous to require that!
This has only been an issue since the ios4 update, and Apple needs to fix it!

  • Photo Album no long working

    Since doing the iPhone 4.01 update, my album no longer displays the thumbnails for the Camera Roll albumn. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    Sure, this is in the script:
    var isMainPageLoaded = false;
    function init() {
    //Create a timer to check to see if the bottom frame is
    loaded
    //before calling into it.
    if (top.BottomFrame.isBottomFrameLoaded) {
    top.BottomFrame.setArrows();
    } else {
    setTimeout("init()", 10);
    And this is the code for the arrows/button
    <a onMouseOver="window.status='Previous Image'; return
    true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;"
    href="javascript:top.BottomFrame.previousImage();"><img
    name="previous1" src="images/previous_disabled.gif" width="36"
    height="19" vspace="2" hspace="1" border="0" alt="Previous
    Image"></a>
    </td>
    <td>
    <a
    onMouseOver="top.BottomFrame.togglePlayPauseImg('over');
    window.status='Start or Stop Slide Show'; return true;"
    onMouseOut="top.BottomFrame.togglePlayPauseImg('out');
    window.status=''; return true;"
    href="javascript:top.BottomFrame.togglePlayPauseState();"><img
    name="pausePlay1" src="images/spacer.gif" width="19" height="19"
    vspace="2" hspace="1" border="0" alt="Play/Pause"></a>
    </td>
    <td>
    <a onMouseOver="window.status='Next Image'; return true;"
    onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;"
    href="javascript:top.BottomFrame.nextImage();"><img
    name="next1" src="images/next_disabled.gif" width="36" height="19"
    vspace="2" hspace="1" border="0" alt="Next Image"></a>

  • My photo album is not in order by date taken

    my photo album is not in order by date taken, how do I get it in order?

    Thanks, it was set on manual instead of by date (?). Wonder why iphoto help doesn't note that.....  Thanks so much for your help.

  • Photos for iOS: How can i sort all of my albums automatically in alphabetical order

    Hey there,
    first off, why isn't there a a community for the new Photos app?
    Anyway, here is my problem:
    How can i sort my albums on the new Photos app on iOS?
    I think it's not possible at the moment.
    I am using the iCloud Photo library and uploadet all of my 15.000 photos from the last 15 years.
    And because of that, i now have many many albums on Photos now.
    Overall i love the new app and i love the iCloud Photo library, but i cannot sort my albums on the iOS app automatically in alphabetical order.
    I can sort albums manual, but who wants that, when you have so many of them???
    I have Photos on my Mac too and there i am able to do sort them in alphabetical order. But it is not adopted to iOS or the iCloud Web-App.
    Because of that, i have a complete picture chaos on my iPhone and when i am looking for this one pic in that one album it takes me forever to find it.
    So please Apple, fix this and we all can live happily ever after!
    Thank you!

    Moments in Photo are the new Events.  T
    here's a way to simulate events in Photos.
    When the library was first migrated there was a folder created titled iPhoto Events and all migrated iPhoto Events are represented by an album in the folder. To open the sidebar if it's not open use the Option+Command+S key combination.
    When new photos are imported into the Photos library go to the Last Import smart album, select all the photos and use the File ➙ New Album menu option or use the key combination Command+N.  Name it as desired.  It will appear just above the iPhoto Events folder where you can drag it into the iPhoto Events folder
    When you click on the iPhoto Events folder you'll get a simulated iPhoto Events window showing all of the albums.
    The downside to this simulation is that the Album/Events can only be sorted automatically by Title while viewed in the Folder in the main window or in the sidebar. But they can be sorted manually.
    Ask Apple for more sorting options in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.

  • IPhone photo album file name sort order

    I have a folder with photos in it on my Mac.  When I sync the folder to my iPhone and view the photos on the phone, the photos are not displaying in file name sort order.  The file names of the photos are numbers (001, 002, 003 etc.).  It seems the photos are being displayed in date created order and not in the file name order.  The album with photos on my Mac is arranged / sorted by the name when syncing.
    Is there a way to have the photos in the iPhone album displayed in file name sort order?
    Thanks,
    David

    Focus Point (not free, no ads) will allow you to rename the files, add descriptions, and sort in a variety of ways. But it won't let you do anything in the main screen except browse your photo albums or camera roll, select one, and then you can do a search within that album or camera roll--and then if and only if the photo has a filename or description can you search for it. Bottom line: be sure to give your photos a proper file name and add a description.

  • My photos in my folders aren't copying to ipad in same order as computer even after renaming sequentially. It's a photo album so need same order

    My photos in my folders aren't copying to ipad in same order as computer even after renaming sequentially. It's a photo album so need same order

    On iOS 6 the photos are copied over (from here) in date modified order. So you will either need to amend the photo's on your computer so that their modified dates are in your required order, or there are third-party photo management apps such as Photo Manager Pro which allow you to change an album's sort order within the app e.g. by date, size, or by dragging them into your own sort order.

  • [SOLVED] goggles music manager albums no longer alphabetical

    Hi All,
    In the albums section gmm shows albums in random order, well not really random. For example, under Zappa I get "Chunga's" Revenge through "Yellow Shark" are alphabetical but then the list continues with "Freak Out", "Absolutely Free", "Hot Rats" and like that. Clicking on the header reverses the order but it is still not alphabetical. Any Clues?
    Thanks

    Perhaps they're sorted by year? (do a right on the header or list and see if the sort by album year is checked)

  • Some albums are not alphabetical order

    so i added a album that begins with a P and S to ipod but it is placed with the Rs. But on my itunes it is sorted correctly is anyone else having this issue or had this issue before

    Apple can only sell music (and any other content type, films, apps etc) where the rights-holders grant them licenses to sell it. You can try requesting that an album be added to your country's store, but unless the rights-holder agrees to it then Apple can't sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
    Are the albums available on other music purchase download sites that you have access to ?

  • My photos are no longer in order by date

    How do I  put them back?

    Well - you have a problem - I recommend fixing it
    Given the total lack of information you gave that is all the advice I can give
    1 - Always remember the first ruld of iPhoto - NEVER make any changes of any sort to the structure of content of the  iPhoto library using the finder - this includes never moving photos from the all images display
    2 - when you launch iPhoto exactly what happens?
    3 - Excetly what changes have you made using the finder?

  • Apple TV, update photo albums-how to

    +*Hullo, I have now set up ATV and all running well.*+
    +*One thing I am not clear about.......I have added about 70 new photos to Aperture, but they are not showing on the ATV.*+
    +*Have turned Home Sharing off, in the hope that once Sharing is on again, new photos will be automatically added to the list...this did not seem to be the case.*+
    *So, what is the method for adding new content (read photos) to the existing library?*
    *I am sure the method is quite simple..but, what is it?*
    Message was edited by: Ronald Begg

    Did you by any chance forget to check-off a box in "Choose Photos to Share"?
    Otherwise, the most convenient way to 'Reset' ATV2 for a change in Photos is (on your ATV2, not iTunes) go into Photos, then click Menu to Exit, then click Photos again. It should reliably cause ATV2 to self-refresh. Hope this helps.

  • Why is my shared photo album no longer there?

    I created a shared photo stream with some friends and added about 14 pictures to it. That was yesterday and now I go to the shared tab on my photos and all my other created shared photo streams are there but not one particular one. Has this happened to anyone else? How can I get it back?

    Ooooookay, now it is there. Basically it disappeared for a while and then reappeared. Why did it do that?

  • My photo albums are no longer alphabetical after ios5 update

    I upgraded my Ipad 2 & ipod touch 4g to ios 5. My photo albums which sync to photoshop elements are no longer alphabetical which now makes it a pain to locate photos. What can I do?

    The contacts is saved on Google or Backup Assistance (Whichever you are using) and you can use ES File Explorer like I posted at http://community.vzw.com/t5/Android-Apps/Simple-way-to-Backup-apps-for-Hard-Reset/td-p/658707 , so you really wont loose anything but apps data...
    BUT, I am not saying that you do this if that is your only issue...  I was just pointing out that this is a good ideal to do with any Major Updates..
    If the contacts isnt linked again you should get the option to link them again once the OS boots, normally it checks and then prompt to link again..

  • I have a Mac OSx 10.6.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and can no longer order printed photo albums unless i install new version of iPhoto. But reviews of new iPhoto so negative. Should I install it or steer clear of it??

    I have a Mac OSx 10.6.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and can no longer order printed photo albums unless I update to new version of iPhoto. But reviews of new iPhoto are so negative that I am uncomfortable about buying it. Will it be fine or should I steer clear of trouble and accept that i can no longer publish my photos?

    iPhoto '11 is working well.
    The reviews usually only show the comments of people who do not like the changed features.
    To get an idea what to expect, when you upgrade, look at the iPhoto '11 support sites.

  • 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?
