Is there a way to sort files Alphabetically?

I have a few files on my numbers screen and I think it be easier to find what I am looking for if it was alphabetically. I know the search option is there and I can use that but sometimes a guy just needs options.

Once you have Numbers open in the browser, click on the settings icon (looks like a gear, upper middle of screen) and select Sort by Name.

Is there a way to sort files in a folder by file name in elements 11?

When I want to print a contact sheet, I need the files pictures in the file name order. Elements 9 had this feature.

I have different needs, but I agree the lack of alphanumeric sort should be fixed. In my situation, it would be enough to have an option to automatically sort an album in alphabetical order. I would also like a sort by caption for albums.
In your case, that is with too many files in folders, the nearest workaround I have found would be:
- Select the images you need to sort (a folder for instance) and export them without changing names in a new folder.
- Import the result into the organizer.
- Select all files in the import batch and assign them a common date stamp.
Your copies should be shown in file name order, in thumbnail, folder or batch import view. But the date taken will be lost...
A solution could be to select both the original images and the edited ones, use the 'automatically suggest stacks' based on visual similarity. You won't lose the date information, but at the cost of twice the disk space.

In Lion 10.7.5 is there a way to view files in alphabetical order in column view?

In Lion 10.7.5 when viewing files/folders in column view, if I select arrange by name it does not sort the names alphabetically. Is this a bug or is there a way to view files in alphabetical order in column view?

I've been using Column View for years and have it set to None:
It has always shown in alphabetical order automatically.

Is there a way to sort a playlist on my iPhone alphabetically by Artist?

Is there a way to sort a playlist on my iPhone alphabetically by Artist? I can do it when I view the playlist through iTunes on my computer, but when I view it on my iPhone's iPod, it is sorted by the date the songs were added. I add the songs through iTunes, and I can sort it by Artist with no problem in the iTunes window. However, when I look at the playlist through the iPod on my iPhone, the new songs are down at the bottom, no matter who the Artist is.
If it matters I am running iOS 4.3.10 on an iPhone 4 and I have iTunes 10.4.0.80 on my computer.
Thanks.

Ottonomy, here's what to do.
Connect your iPhone to your computer and open the iPhone's playlist in an iTunes window. Copy/Paste the entire playlist into a new(!) playlist in iTunes, not on your iPhone. Then resort the playlist. After you sort it, Copy/Paste it to a new(!) playlist on your iPhone. Now delete the old playlist on your iPhone and rename the new playlist the name you want it to be (probably the same name as the old playlist).
The downside to this method is that you have to do it every time you add a song to the playlist. Unfortunately, I don't think there's another way.

Is there a way to sort a PDF file with multiple pages by a specific field within the PDF? All pages have the same invoice format and i would like to sort by a field within and then print the documents. (Vendor, PO#, Date, ect.)

When you say field, do you mean specifically a form field, such as a text field? Or is the information regular text on the page?

Is there a way to sort iBooks library folders alphabetically?

Is there a way to sync photos alphabetically with iTunes 10.7.0

After upgrading to iOS 6 and iTunes 10.7.0 (from 10.6.1.7), my photos are extremely out of order and too jumbled up to even bother looking through. Before iTunes 10.6.3 and 10.7.0, photos were arranged by alphabetical order, not date taken or whatever it is sorted by now.
I adapted to the alphabetical ordering and named all of my pictures so that they would appear in alphabetical order like I wanted them to on my iPod touch 4th generation, and now Apple changes the ordering method so my photos are not in order. Why on earth did Apple suddenly change the method in which photos were sorted after being synced? And furthermore, why is there no option to revert back to alphabetical sorting? They took something that was perfect and made it complete garbage. I have ~10 folders each with upwards of 500 pictures in them, and while the folders are in order, the pictures in them are not and it's frustrating beyond belief.
I can't downgrade my iTunes alone because it won't be compatible with iOS 6, and I can't downgrade both my iOS and iTunes together because then my iTunes Library.itl will not be recognized (does not recognize an iTunes Library.itl made by a newer ver of iTunes), and then my play counts, synced iPod data, and other iTunes info will all be wiped.
This is stupid.. I want to know if there's a way to sort photos alphabetically like they did in the past few versions of iTunes (10.6.1.7 and a bit earlier), because now the 4 gb of photos stored on my iPod is just dead weight.

I just noticed this tonight! I'm kicking myself for updating iTunes! I have well over 30.000 photos and now they are all out of order.
I upgraded to 10.6.3.25 and all the photos are sorted by date now and none of the sub-folders are recognized.
This has happened before and it took them over a year to fix it. I wish they would give us a preference as to how we want our images displayed. The whole photo cache thing is so ridiculous! Mine is up to 11GB right now.

Is there a way to sort books by Author/Series?

Hi All!
I have several Authors that have books in several Series. Is there a way to sort the books in iBooks by Author AND Series, instead of alphanumberically, so that I can find books in a Series, in the order that they were written? The only way, so far, that I've been able to do this is to add 1, 2, 3 etc before the title of the book, so that they come out in order, but to me this is an inelegant way to fix this.
Thanks, everyone, for your help!

Unfortunately, there isn't. I found iBooks so limited and painful to use that I finally uninstalled it and went back to iTunes to manage my ebooks.
I posted this to another thread earlier, summarizing what I'd learned here and out on the web in general:
When iBooks is uninstalled, the books icon will automatically reappear in the iTunes library menu and you can now add ebook files to iTunes and sync them easily with your pad or phone iBooks apps, just like it worked pre-iBooks for Mac.
To uninstall iBooks on Mac, open Terminal (It's in the Utilities folder in Applications) and type the following on the command line:
sudo rm -rf /Applications/iBooks.app
Double-check your typing. Press Enter.
You may be prompted for your system password - Type that in and press Enter. iBooks is now gone from your Mac. If the iBooks icon is still on the dock, it can be manually deleted.
The iBooks files are in:
/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books
The 'Containers' folder was hard to find - I think it's a hidden file. I found it using MacKeeper's disc usage utility and deleted the books from there.
iTunes doesn't have a series filter in its metadata editor, but you could use the Comments or Grouping filter to name the series and the track # or disc # filter to order them.

Is there a way to sort subscriber list by Surname?

Is there a way to sort subscriber list by Surname?
Currenty it is sorted by Full name, sorting by first name alphabetically.I would prefer it to sort by surname.

Hi,
Not within the system unfortunately. The workaround is to export the report and manually separate the full names into first and last name columns to achieve what you are after.
This is currently on our wishlist to enhance in the future.
Kind regards,

Is there a way to sort button field names?

In the Button Options dialog box, in the Behaviors tab: Behavior is Show/Hide fields. I cannot figure out ID's method of organization of organizing the field names. Sometimes, the new fields go at the top. Sometimes they go at the bottom... It doesn't appear to be alphabetical, numerical, or chronological. Help!
There also doesn't appear to be any way to sort these field names. My document has about a hundred fields so far, with a couple hundred more to go. Is there any way to sort these names so they are easy to wade through?
If sorting via script is not an option, maybe someone could help me understand the rationale (if there is any) to ID's way of listing field names.
Thanks!

Is there a way to move files from one folder to another without copying and pasting and then going back to delete the original?

Is there a way to move files from one folder to another without copying and pasting and then going back to delete the original? The cut and paste function is not available and there's no "move to" function. Am I missing something? It was so easy with Windows.

Drag the files, or press Option when pasting them; this accesses the Move To function.

Is there a way to transfer files from a mac-book to another computer?

I need to get files off of my damaged Macbook and I'm not sure how to do it. Is there a way to transfer files from my macbook to another computer? The damage is to the screen of my macbook and it is severe- you can only see the top left of screen, the rest is cracked/blacked out. Is there anything I can do?

If the MacBook has a FireWire port, hook it and the other computer up with a FireWire cable, start up the MacBook with the T key held down, and copy the files off.

Is there a way to exchange files between an iPhone and a mac?

Hi there,
I know the iPhone does not support bluetooth (legally), but is there a way I can share files between the phone and a macbook NOT connected to the internet?
What I need to do is the following: I use the phone for work (bad choice, I know...) and need to be able to access e-mail and send files out. I am going to be away for a couple of weeks (I am based in the UK and going to Italy) and was thinking to use the phone for e-mailing (megabucks!!!) and the macbook to do some work that will need to be subsequently e-mailed, but as the iPhone does not support (legally at least) bluetooth, is there a way to load files onto the phone? I mean, it doesn't sound like rocket science.
I have to say, I am overall very disappointed with the iPhone as a tool to work with. Great for games, etc., but not for work. I am really tempted to toss it in the trash (or at least return it where I got it from).
I hope you can give me some good news here...
Besides as a general observation, I have been spending HOURS scouring the internet trying to find solutions to some basic issues I have with the iPhone... A piece of kit that is as expensive as all that should not be so difficult to use especially if all I am trying to get what would be considered a common feature in all bog standard phones, but that's another story... At least I have the digital compass and I can check stocks and shares to make me feel better...
Thanks

I guess I'm confused then. DocsToGo and AirShare Pro both allow you to set up an adhoc network (direct wifi-based connection between the laptop and your iPhone, no wifi router/cell data connection required). You can then pass the documents back and forth between the two devices. I prefer DocsToGo, because it also allows you to edit/sync the docs back and forth. Is this not what you want to do? You can also email the document from within DocsToGo on the iPhone if desired.
If you want to upload/download using a service like DropBox (which will also require a data connection, either WiFi or cell-based) DocsToGo can access that cloud-based service.
Note that I'm NOT affiliated with DocsToGo, but I did read the instructions to find out all the stuff it can do

Is there a way to edit files?

Is there a way to edit files in iTunes? What I would like to do, in one or two cases, is keep half a file.
For example, I have one file which consists of an interview followed by a song, I'd like to discard the interview but keep the song.

That's helpful, thanks. Is there a way of getting rid of the unwanted portion, so as to save memory?
