Is it possible to sort photos by date in descending order?

In the new Yosemite Photos app my photos are displayed in ascending order by date. The oldest photos are at the top and I must scroll all the way down to view the newest photos. In iPhoto I was able to change the sorting order so that the newest photos were always at the top. Is there a way to do this in the Photos app?

No, sorry, that sort option is still missing.

How can i sort photos by date taken, not date created?

How can i sort photos by date taken, not date created?

I'd like this feature as well. I tend to browse my photos by date in Aperture, but on ios thay always appear in some bizzare random order.
I've tried several workarounds but with no luck. As metadata is present, surely this should be simple...

Is it possible to sort folders by date that is written in the folders name? eg. folders are named 26 May 2011 and so on

Hi,
Question as in the topic: Is it possible to sort folders by date that is written in the folders name? eg. folders are named 26 May 2011 and so on
Thanks

I sort mine 5.1.11, 5.2.11, etc. - that works (adding letters to the numerals does not work as well). Starting with the month will also work better because there are only 12 of them (rather than a repetition of days).

How to sort data in descending order when user clicks on the column heading

Hi
I have a report called "Top customers", which shows the top customers for a specific product line. It displays the customer name and one column with the total amount spent in the period for each product line. By default, the leftmost product line is sorted in descending order.
If the user wants to know who are the top customers for another product line, they simply click on the column heading to sort the list by that column.
The problem is that when you click for the first time on a sortable column heading, Apex sorts it in ascending order; you need to click on the same column heading again to sort in descending order.
Is it possible to change this behaviour and sort the data in descending order in the first click? So the users don't have to click twice...
Thanks
Luis
PS: Apex 3 running on Oracle 10.2.0

Luis,
See: Can I "catch" a click on a sortable column header of a report?
Take a look at Anton Nielsen's answer with regards to hiding a column and displaying its value instead of the sortable column.
Asumming the following simple report query:
select product,sales
from <table>
Change that into:
select product
,sales*-1 as reverse_sales -- Select this one as an extra column
,sales -- Hide this column
from <table>
In your report column attributes (of column reverse_sales), html-expression, type #sales#. It then displays the normal sales. However apex will generate a 'order by 2 asc' for the first time. The '2' will refer to the sales*-1 value: sorting it asc, is the same as sorting sales descending...

Below is my code, where i need to sort the " webCollection
= web.getSubwebsForCurrentUser(null)" web collection based on the web.get_created() in
descending order. How could i do it any suggestions. Also i need it in JavaScript.
<script src="/_layouts/15/sp.runtime.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

function getWebProperties() {
webCollection = web.getSubwebsForCurrentUser(null);
context.load(webCollection)
//ctx.load(this.web);
context.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onSuccess),
Function.createDelegate(this, this.onFail));
function onSuccess(sender, args) {
//alert('web title:' + this.web.get_title() + '\n ID:' + this.web.get_id()

alert("Number of sites: " + webCollection.get_count());
var webEnumerator = webCollection.getEnumerator();
while (webEnumerator.moveNext()){
var web = webEnumerator.get_current();
alert("Title="+web.get_title() +"\n"+ "Created="+web.get_created());
function onFail(sender, args) {
alert('failed to get list. Error:'+args.get_message());
//getWebProperties();

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to sort the subsite based on the date in descending order.
You can refer to the following code snippets, it sorts the subsites by the date in descending order.
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
// When the body is loaded, the onload event handler executes each function whose name is contained in this array.
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("callCSOM");
function callCSOM()
$("#Button1").click(function()
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(RetriveSites, "sp.js");
var currentcontext = null;
var currentweb = null;
function RetriveSites()
currentcontext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
currentweb = currentcontext.get_web();
this.subsites = currentweb.get_webs();
currentcontext.load(this.subsites);
currentcontext.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.ExecuteOnSuccess),
Function.createDelegate(this, this.ExecuteOnFailure));
function ExecuteOnSuccess(sender, args)
var subsites = '';
var enum1 = this.subsites.getEnumerator();
var siteCreatedTime = '';
var array=new Array();
while (enum1.moveNext())
var site = enum1.get_current();
array.push(new Array(site.get_created(),site.get_title()));
alert(array);
array=sortMethod(array);
alert(array);
function sortMethod(arr) {
var i, j, stop, len = arr.length;
for (i=0; i<len; i=i+1)
for (j=1;j<len - i; j++)
// change the "<" to ">" would be sort by the Ascending.
if (new Date(arr[j-1][0]) < new Date(arr[j][0]))
//swap(j, j+1);
var temp = arr[j-1];
arr[j-1] = arr[j];
arr[j] = temp;
//alert(new Date(arr[j]));
return arr;
function ExecuteOnFailure(sender, args) {
alert("error");
</script>
<input id="Button1" type="button" value="Run Code"/>

Is it possible to sort Mac Mail Rules into alphabetical order? I have in excess of 50 rules and everytime I want to add to a rule, such as "delete incoming" I have to go through the entire list to find it.

Is it possible to sort Mac Mail Rules into alphabetical order? I have in excess of 50 rules and everytime I want to add or amend a rule, such as "delete incoming" I have to go through the entire list to find it. I have tried clicking on the heading "Description" but it does not sort. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that use CMAK to configure split tunneling on VPN clients, traffic to specified devices can be routed via their own default gateway.
If the manually added route entries all have default metric and interface, clients will select one by the default routing rule, can’t select one of them according to clients’ own conditions. So, I am afraid that CMAK can’t implement the function which you need.
A blog described about How to configure split tunneling on VPN clients using CMAK, for your reference:

Sorting photos by date

I've synced my photos to my iPod but within each folder they show up in filename order. I've given each file a name that actually means something, so this is not a useful order for display purposes.
Is it possible to get the iPod to show photos in date order? I've used a little utility to set the modification date of all my photos to be the same as the date the photo was taken (extracted from the EXIF information in the JPEG).
If not, why not?

Sorting photos by date/time taken, when date/time created is not an option?

I'm so sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, but I can't find it on Google or in the forums...
I need to sort wedding photos from multiple photographers by date taken so I can sort through the wedding as a full event. Sorting by the date/time the file was created will not suffice because I had to convert all photos from one of my photogs from NEF to DNG (D610 files not compatible with CS5), so the 'date created' for those DNG file is days later than all the other images. Thus, sorting by "date created' batches all the photos from one of my photogs together at the end.
Is there any option in Bridge that will actually read the metadata and sort by the shoot time of the image?
Thanks for any help!

There has been a known bug in PSE9 although only affecting raw images and caused by the Camera Raw 6.4 update. The timestamp gets changed by one hour each time an image is modified. I don’t know if your issue is related but the work around is to revert to ACR 6.3
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/915/cpsid_91582.html
The only other work around is to temporarily switch to folder location view, if your images were imported from a single folder. Click on the display button (near top right in Organizer) to change the browser view. If you click on the folder in the left hand pane the files will normally be in sequential file name order which usually mirrors the date/time taken. From the folder location it’s possible to create an instant album, which can then be used as the basis of a slideshow.

Sort Photos by date

After many tragic disk crashes and other issues I am left with 3600 photos in one folder. I want to import these into a new iPhoto 08 library with the photos sorted by date created. When I import the folder is shows as a single event with all the pictures under that date. How do I have iPhoto sort photos with the same creation dates into separate events based on creation dates upon import?

Have you selected the event and used the autosplit event command?

How can I sort photos by date taken in Photos for OS X

Photos sort by Moments, which seems badly broken - photos from one date and location end up in multiple moments, while one moment can have photos from multiple dates and locations. Photos are not in date/time order.
Photos under Albums sort by date/time of import - useless.

Shared photostream - sort photos by date?

I've created a shared photostream for sharing travel photos. I've uploaded the photos as I've edited them. Now I find that the photos are not in chronological order in the photostream and have lost all their place/date&time photo information.
And I can't resort in chronological order.
Now what? It's a mess.

Is it possible to sort photos by the date imported?

The majority of my photos were taken without the date being set in the camera.
In previous versions of iphoto it appeared as though each time I imported images (now called an event) the events were put in the order that they were imported.
I would like to go back to that method of ordering, on a temporary basis this will allow me to try estimate the date that each event took place because at least the events would be in chronological order.
Right now my events are completely unordered because of wrong dates.

I'm assuming that in addition to not having the date set in your camera you had not renamed the rolls in iPhoto 6 so every event is now titled "Untitled event"
The only way to fix your dates that comes to mind is to go back to iPhoto 6, go through all your rolls and name them 'Roll "date"' or even 'roll n' then reimport into iPhoto 7.0.2 . that way the events will be in the same order that the rolls were in iPhoto 6 and you can use the iPhoto "photos menu ==> adjust date and time" or "photos menu ==> batch change ==> set date" to modify the dates so the events work
Before doing anything I'd download Old Toad's library back up and do that (see pretty much any of his posts for instructions)

Does the IPad Sort Photos on Date if you Strip the EXIF Data ?

....and set the file creation dates on the files so that they are all identical ?
If so, is there an IPad or Mac app that can do this ?

Like I said I don't use iPhoto so I havn't tried it, so I can only go on what http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4221 says :
If you are using iPhoto for Mac OS X, your photos automatically sort on your device in the same order they are sorted in iPhoto or Aperture. Changes made to the sorting of your pictures in your iPhoto or Aperture albums and events will be reflected on the device after syncing.

Sort photos by date added

In iTunes one can sort the music in a myriad of ways(41 by my count), by virtually every descriptor that can be attached to a music file, once one clicks on the right column heading.
Why not the same in iPhoto (I will put this to iPhoto feed back one more time, as I am sure have many others)? How may years now have people been asking for a "date added" to your database or "size of file" sorting options? Still not here that I know of? Here is about it for iPhoto in Lion OS:
Does anyone have a solution where I can sort through my images by size and/or date added (not date the image was taken)? Thanks.
Still it is a better program than in the past. If it can't find duplicates like iTunes, at least it doesn't import them anymore. There are many other good features, too. I just hoped iPhoto could reach the search/organizing capabilities of iTunes. Thanks again for any help.

Thanks Terence,
I took your advice and plopped down the 80 bucks for Aperture 3.2.3. And, I appreciate your encouragement.
It unfortunately has been a disaster as I have spent hours trying to get it to work. It is as some others have said "mud slow" on my i7 MBP. I've tried many suggestions found on line to get it to work. The list is long, but none have yet worked. Even doubling my RAM to 8GB has not done it. And, I am only using it on a database of about 2k images. I wanted to test it out before turning my whole database over to it.
Another point; while Aperture does have the features I needed for searches, I have used iPhoto to share, via my web site, original versions of my images with my students using iPhoto's "web export" macros. Unfortunately, Aperture's web export macros do not allow images over 1200 pixels in dimension. So, I've had to export from Aperture (takes forever) back to iPhoto to get the processed images published to the web at the appropriate size.
It's my bad, I should have seen all the people on this discussion group and others across the web who are having similar troubles with their Aperture slowing down. Most seem to blame Lion upgrades. This note is just to warn others that there is risk in buying software without testing a trial version first; Aperture being one of them.
In my 25 years as a Mac user, this is the most troublesome product I have ever purchased. Maybe that is not too bad of a record. I just hope there is a fix on the way for many of us who cannot get it to work.
