IPhone 4S artist sort order problem
Running iTunes 10.5 and iOS5 on iPhone 4S and having this problem where when i go to Music and then the Artists tab, the artists are not listed under the proper letter. So like when I click on the "V" on the side where all the letters are, it goes to V, but all the bands listed under that start with S. then when I get down to "Z" all the bands start with T, and that it. So I cant get to any of the artists that start with letters past T. The songs are on the iPhone, when I search for them they show up and I can play them and they are still on their proper playlists. But still pretty annoying for when i just want to hear a specific artist. Any ideas?

"I do have 5.0.1 - new iPhone 4 S and still have this problem. Artists are mixed up and not in a correct order. There must be a bug not fixed."

Hi.
I have music sync'd via iTunes Match from my laptop to my iPad and to my iPhone. The names and order appear correct on both the laptop and on the iPad but on the iPhone several artists are either shown in all lower case or the last name will be used by the sort, rather than the first.
I've reset the artist, album artist and sort artist tags to different names (and they show up correctly then on the iPhone) and then set them back, but the problem remains.
I'm thinking that the iPhone has a corrupt file somewhere - but how can I reset that without losing everything on the phone?
A factory reset and restore from iCloud results in the same problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks guys.
--Cynan.I also have an Artist sort order problem. While the circumstances are quite different from yours, I wonder if it's due to a similar corruption problem. I don't use iTunes Match. I found Kenny G listed under letter T.

IPhone ignoring artist "sort as" metadata
So, I recently noticed that my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.2, is ignoring my "sort as" field for artists.
I have painstakingly changed every artist in my iTunes to have a "Sort As" in the artist names, so that it sorts by last name (example - Artist: John Lennon; Sort As: Lennon, John). This sorts by last name, UNLESS there is a name in the "Album Artist" field, then it will sort by that field. I delete the data out of "Album Artist," so whatever is in artist "Sort As" works great. The iTunes on my laptop sorts it perfectly, and for a while it worked fine on my iPhone as well.
But now I'm noticing (and this may have been before I updated to 8.2, I only noticed it today) that all the artist sorting on my iPhone is by band name or artists FIRST name (with a weird exception of Jacques Dutronc, which still sorts under "D").
Obviously it's not the end of the world, the music is there and I'm capable of backwards thinking it, but it's a little frustrating that I've spent years relabeled tracks to avoid this very thing, and now it's just ignoring it. Luckily it's not a problem on my computer's iTunes (where most of my music resides).
Any ideas on how to fix this?Settings > Music > unselect "Group by Album Artist" seemed to work for me.

Artist sort order and TSOP tags
Can someone please help me understand how tagging and sort orders behave on an iPhone in advance of my buying one.
I like to browse my music library by artist and, for example, I prefer to have "David Bowie" sort under "B" rather than "D". I believe that the spec for ID3v2.4 tags added the TSOP (Text Sort Order Performer) to over-ride the sorting order. Does the software on the iPhone take notice of the TSOP (or any alternative) tags when browsing by artist so that I can sort in the way I want?
- JulianSort order can either be set in iTunes or, if tagging using other programs before importing into iTunes, then the correct tags names to add are "Sort Artist" and "Sort Album" which will then be recognised by iTunes.

When I sort by Album Artist, it sorts, but the next level of sorting seems to be the artist then I'm not sure what it sorts by? I prefer the tree to go Album Artist>Album>Track number, is there any way to modify this?
In the iTunes the Album by Artist view ordering is:-
<Sort Album Artist OR Album Aritst OR Sort Artist OR Artist>, <Album>, <Disc No.>, <Track No.>
On the iPod, Cover Flow ordering is:-
<Sort Artist OR Artist>, <Album>, <Disc No.>, <Track No.>
Where the OR uses the first non-blank value. In iTunes you can use Sort Artist to make a number of different artist values sort as one & display as one entry in the browser list. On the iPod this will group an album as one unit for the Album & Cover Flow view, however the Artist menu may still display the individual values put in the Artist field often listed thus:-
Artist
Artist/Guest 1
Artist
Artist/Guest 2
Artist/Guest 3
Artist
etc.
I use the Sort Artist field myself, in preference to putting all guest artist info. into the track title, but it's worth noting the side effects of doing so. Hopefully at some point the iPod sorting rules will be changed to match that of iTunes.

ATV 4.4.2 photo sort order problem
I have just updated my Apple TV (I believe it is now 4.4.2)
When I view my photo albums, the sort order is not the same as that in my iPhoto.
It was before the update.
I resorted the albums again in iPhoto, they look just right on my MBP. They also look exactly the way I wanted it on my iPad2 and my iPod. But on Apple TV, it's all wrong again.
I have invited friends over this weekend for a presentation that I want to show them slides on the Apple TV. I am dead meat now. Please advise.
Thank you in advance.
EddieI did some additional testing using my Apple TV (1st generation) and my Windows 7 computer, and this is what I found.
(This likely applies to iPad/iPod/iPhone too).
Apple TV displays photos in order of their "Date Created" file attribute.
If the "Date Created" file attribute of all photos in an album is identical, then Apple TV displays the photos in alphabetical order.
This I what I do to make sure that Apple TV displays photos in the order I want them to be in:
First, I arrange photos in the order I want them to be in. For this, I use Google Picasa, but one could also use FastStone Image Viewer, or any similar tool.
Then, I bulk rename all the photos, so that their file names are in alphabetical order. I do this from within Picasa, but there are many other freeware file rename tools one could use for this.
Next, I bulk change the "Date Created" file attribute of the photo files, so that they all have an identical one. For this, I use BatchTouch, freeware available for Windows and Mac.
Finally, I open iTunes, and sync the photos to my Apple TV.
Note: if they photos were already synced to your Apple TV before you perform the steps above, you may need to this beforehand:
Open iTunes on your PC, and make sure that the correct photo folder is selected for syncing to your device.
Using Windows Explorer, navigate to this folder.
Within it, locate a subfolder called “iPod Photo Cache” ("iPad Photo Cache for iPad syncing) and delete it. -
Month Sort Order Problem in Time Dimension(Essbase with Obiee)?
Hi All,
I am facing issue with month order in answers.
First I created BSO cube using Essbase Studio. When i exposed cube in answers, months were sorted in alphabetical order. So i used RANK function with evaluate to arrange month members in proper order. But if i use RANK function it pulls all missing records and it is effecting performance.
Then i created Time dimension(dimension loading) in essbase from FLAT file,initially it was coming in proper order. But after some time again it sorted in alphabetical order!!!
I have seen in internate few people saying they didn't face this problem. I
Please advice...
Essbase: 11.1.1.3
OBIEE: 10.1.3.4.1
RSHi user10300020,
That's a fairly common problem with months that happens regardless of database source.
In the logical layer of OBIEE you can specify the sort order on the month name column. Just double click on the month name column and look for the option to set sort order based on a different column. I typically sort the month name based on the month number.
Give that a shot and tell me if it works.

"Date Added" sort order problem when importing folders
I sort by "Date Added" to view my iTunes library, and use the middle "view" button to view tracks grouped as albums with artwork. This works mighty well except when I'm importing folders containing the files in an album, such as those I get from eMusic--the tracks are displayed out of order when I do this. The only solution I've found so far is to import one track at a time. Any ideas how I can get those tracks in there in the right order when importing a folder? Any scripts hanging around that will do it right? Thanks to all....
What sort order do you have selecting in the sort drop-down? There is no "correct" sort order. You can sort on any metadata you can show in the Browser. The sort drop-down is located in the top border of the Browser, near the left corner. Every container in Aperture retains the sort order it last had. When you manually move an Image in the Browser, the sort order is changed to "Manual".

Sort Order problem in a cursor
Hi,
I have a cursor where the sort order needs to be specified dynamic. I have declared variables (say x and y) which contains the numbers. When I use them in the order by clause, though no compilation error, but the sorting does not occur.
Eg. Cursor C1 is
Select col1,col2
from tab1
where ...
ORDER BY x (the value of x is 2).
Your help is greatly appreciated. (This cursor is in Oracle Forms)
ThanksHow come this works:

Dear members,
I have report with a field name sort_order but it don't show data in asending order, but first sort another column item_name in asending order.
the sort_order is number
item_name is char
order by property of number is asending and item_name is none.
both in same group.
where I am wrong?

Request/Service Offering Sort Order Problems
I am having a difficult time finding a way to sort the results of a MP Enumeration List prompt type. The sort order on the portal user prompt is random even though I have arranged them in teh Service Manager console list to be alphabetical. This
does not apply to the prompt the end user sees in the portal. It is not alphabetical. Anyone have any ideas?
The MP Enumeration prompt is mapped to the Service Request Source list. Version is 2012 R2 with update rollup 2 installed on all SCSM servers.I'm experiencing the same issue, have you found a solution to this?

I have a minor, albeit annoying, problem that I can't seem to solve. I have one recently taken photo in my Aperture library which for whatever reason seems to have a preview that is dated as the oldest photo in my library. It displays in the correct order in all albums within Aperture, but in all other areas where the preview appears (Photo Browser in Mail, iLife, iPhone, Apple TV) it always shows up as the first or oldest item in any album in which it appears. The creation date on it is correct, I've tried rebuilding by database, regenerating Previews, deleting and reimporting the original RAW file etc...
Is there a way to rebuild the database of the Image Browser within OSX? That's the next thing I'd like to try. Any suggestions?Hi Eric,
My understanding of previews and master files is a bit patchy, but I thought I'd ask: Is the preview showing up in other apps as newest because it's the files you've made changes to last of all? If you import new files and make changes to them, does this change the order in which your problem file appears? I'm just thinking that maybe other apps are sorting previews by the Last Modified date, and if you're making changes to this file (Levels, saturation, cropping etc), then the preview will quite correctly show as the newest.

After install of 4.2 IPhoto only syncs in date order on Ipad. Will not sort in alphabetic order despite trying numerous times.
I found a solution for the events remaining in the same order as in iphoto 9.1.1. After leaving the events in the order you want in iPhoto, edited the date and time information (exif file) of the first picture of each event. For example, I have ordered several events manually in iPhoto. I got in first and put the first photo of the first event to date 01/01/1958 12:00:00 by Pictures menu> Adjust Date and Time. In the second event to repeat the same process, and changed the date for the first photo to 01/01/1959 12:00:00. And so adding one year to each event to the last. After this change, re-syncronize all events with iphone4 and events were in the same order that had set in iphoto 9.1.1. This is because the iphone4 with IOS 4.2.1 uses the information contained in the EXIF photo files and sort by this information. I hope helped with this tip, which worked for me. When I add a new event, I have to sync your entire library again.

Why when i use the sort artist field on an artist that has featuring artist it sorts in the column browser with the featured artist, for example
Artist : Audio Bullys Ft. Nancy Sinatra
Album Artist : Audio Bullys
Track : Shot You Down
Sort Artist : Audio Bullys
Sort Album Artist : Audio Bullys
If I'm Sorting using those parameters, should it not show just Audio Bully's in my Column Browser. I have many artists with featuring artists, some of them sort how I want them to with just the main artist in the column browser, some don't.....any ideas on this?????
Cheers NickI'm experiencing the same issue, have you found a solution to this?

Sort Order problem in Oracle 11g
Hi,
While executing the below query in 10g and 11g, I got different results.
SELECT loan.Ins_Id,
ARev.revision,
ADet.Acc_Id,
loan.Loan_Id
FROM
Account_Det ADet
join Acc_REV ARev
on ADet.Acc_Id = ARev.Acc_Id
join LoanAcc loan
on loan.Loan_Id = ARev.Loan_Id
join Interest_Det Ins
on Ins.Ins_Id = loan.Ins_Id
where Ins.Ins_Id in ('691','707')
and ARev.revision=
(select max(revision) from Acc_REV where Loan_Id =
(select max(Loan_Id) from LoanAcc where Ins_Id =Ins.Ins_Id
) AND ADet.Acc_Id = '312'
ORDER BY TO_NUMBER(ARev.revision) ASC;
Result in Oracle 11g
INS_ID REVISION Acc_ID Loan_Id
707 2 312 238
691 1 312 234
Result in Oracle 10g
INS_ID REVISION Acc_ID Loan_Id
691 1 312 234
707 2 312 238
The order in both the cases were different.The order in 11g was not in ascending order.Though the data in both the databases
is same. Could anyone please tell me why is this happening?. Is there any diffeence in the architecure of ORDER BY (sort) in
10g and 11g. If I modify the above query by avoiding the subquery I get the correct result(i.e in ascending order).
SELECT loan.Ins_Id,
ADet.Acc_Id,
loan.Loan_Id
FROM
Account_Det ADet
join Acc_REV ARev
on ADet.Acc_Id = ARev.Acc_Id
join LoanAcc loan
on loan.Loan_Id = ARev.Loan_Id
join Interest_Det Ins
on Ins.Ins_Id = loan.Ins_Id
where Ins.Ins_Id in ('691','707')
and ARev.revision in ('100','101')
AND ADet.Acc_Id = '312'
ORDER BY TO_NUMBER(ARev.revision) ASC;
Edited by: KZON on Apr 7, 2011 4:46 AMHi all,
I have modified the query by giving To_Number(ARev.revision) before sub query. Now Oracle 11g returns results in ascending order. But 10g returns results in ascending order with out using To_Number()
NOte:- Type of ARev.revision is VARCHAR
SELECT loan.Ins_Id,
ARev.revision,
ADet.Acc_Id,
loan.Loan_Id
FROM
Account_Det ADet
join Acc_REV ARev
on ADet.Acc_Id = ARev.Acc_Id
join LoanAcc loan
on loan.Loan_Id = ARev.Loan_Id
join Interest_Det Ins
on Ins.Ins_Id = loan.Ins_Id
where Ins.Ins_Id in ('691','707')
and To_Number(ARev.revision)=
(select max(revision) from Acc_REV where Loan_Id =
(select max(Loan_Id) from LoanAcc where Ins_Id =Ins.Ins_Id
) AND ADet.Acc_Id = '312'
ORDER BY TO_NUMBER(ARev.revision) ASC;
Result
INS_ID REVISION Acc_ID Loan_Id
691 1 312 234
707 2 312 238
Is there any difference in ORDER BY clause in Oracle11g and 10g ?
