Is there any rhyme or reason to order in which app updates are displayed?

I posted this on the iPhone forum a while ago, with no useful response. I'm asking again here, because it is equally applicable to iPad.
Is it completely random, or is there an order I am unaware of? I would expect to see app updates displayed by date, i.e. most current updates shown a top of list, but I can find no such pattern or any other hierarchy. Thanks.

I don't know if this response is useful or if it is the answer that you are seeking, but the updates are supplied by the developers so whenever an update is available, it appears on your iPad in the app store icon. These are not controlled by Apple so as they become available, the arrow icon shows up and you can update. It's a random happenstance based on what the different developers are releasing from what I can determine.
If I am wrong, I am confident that my information will be corrected by someone.

I have over a hundred updates at any given time, and it would be nice to display only the most current, or dismiss older updates I don't intend to download.

No, as everybody I know updates their apps. Many of which have to be in order to work correctly with changes to the iOS.
Others fix memory leaks or security issues.
Yes I have seen some degrade the app because they went to add ads or remove a feature they wanted in for sale app, but for those apps, if that is how they want to treat customers and change things after purchase, I just drop them as odds are there is another app that does the same or better.

In landscape mode, the mailbox list is automatically displayed (in portrait mode, you will need to tap the button to,show it).
To edit the list, tap edit as shown below.

What determines the order in which phone numbers are displayed in address book/contacts on Mac and iPad/iPhone?

I may have "Work, Home, Skype, Work Fax" (for example) order in Adress Book on my Mac, but there is no gurantee, apparently, that this order will be preserved across entries on my iPad and iPhone. In some entries I might get "Home, Work, Skype, Work Fax" while others might have "Work, Skype, Home, Work Fax". Even with just Work and Home, the ordering is not consistent. Can I force a specific order?

Having the same problem. Have iPad and iPhone, both running ios5, both sync to the cloud, and data entered on one soon shows up like magic on the other. But Lion MacBook Pro refuses to join in the dance. Contacts and calendar entries on the mbp don't show up in either the ipad or iphone. I have the same account login info setup on all three devices, and as much as I can tell, preferences set up correctly. Oddly enough, when I am in the mbp cloud preference pane, and click on the ? for help, it tells me it can't give me help because it is not connected to the internet. Well, it clearly IS connected to the internet. Don't know if that is related to the non-syncing or not, but it is a little strange. A little bit of operating manual for cloud would be helpful.

Is there a batch process that runs in the evening? Perhaps that ends up cleaning out the data from the buffer cache, turning logical I/O's into physical I/O's early in the morning.
Can you check the statistics on the table before the process starts and after you re-gather statistics? Perhaps there is a nightly process that is altering the statistics at an unfortunate time or in an unfortunate way.
The previous poster's comment about getting a trace file is excellent as well-- whatever your session is waiting on will be apparent in the trace.

Is there any point in having an ORDER BY clause within a FOR LOOPs counter?

DB Version:10.2.0.1.0
I need to loop through empno's using a FOR loop. But is there any point in having an Order by clause within SQL as shown below. This only degrades the performance because of the unnecessary sorting by the ORDER BY clause. Right?
begin
FOR i IN (select empno from emp ORDER BY sal ASC) LOOP
curr_stat_id := i.empno +p_gennum;
.

First question you should ask to your self is
"Do i need a FOR LOOP. Cant i do it in a straight SQL"
If the answer is NO (Which is not in several cases) then the next question is.
"What is my requirement"
Having an order by in the Select is totally pertained to your requirement. If your requirement
says you should loop through the employee based on there salary for lowest to highest then yes you
need an order by.
So more than performance point of view its requirement point of you. But if you are more concern about
performance you will first ask to your self
"Do i need a FOR LOOP. Cant i do it in a straight SQL"
Thanks,
Karthick.

Any way to control the order in which data is exported?

I found it surprisingly easy to set up a form to submit its contents via a formmail script -- perhaps too easy...
Using Acrobat 9 (and the demo version of Acrobat X), I've modified a form that students fill out so that when they hit the submit button it pushes the form contents to a script which relays it to an e-mail address specified on the form -- no problems there.
But the order in which those fields are listed in the e-mail bears no relation to the order the fields appear in the form -- or alphabetical order of the field names or data values or the tab order. It's the same order every time. And as far as I can tell the mailing script isn't doing anything to change the order of the data.
This is mostly an issue of making the e-mail friendly for the supervisor who has to look at the e-mails as they come in. (I've done a number of searches on Google and here in the forums before posting and haven't found any references to similar problems, so maybe I do have a funky script.)
I'm wondering if a) there's something native to the form that could change the order of the data and b) there's some straightforward way of controlling that. (I imagine I could write some JavaScript to control the output I had to, but it seems like a needless step.)
Thanks for any insight anyone can provide.

function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
A solution would be to modify the server script to output in the order you want, as opposed to just looping over the collection of fields present in the incoming data as formmail type scripts typically do.
That is what I wound up doing -- making a copy of the mailing script and reformatting the message body string to contain just the data responses my colleage wanted in the order he wanted. It beats the old method of requiring users to fill out the PDF, save the document and then e-mail in the PDF as an attachment.

Is there any way of saving progress in a game/app when you remove it from the ipad to the cloud

Is there any way of saving progress in a game/app when you remove it from the ipad to the cloud.
Basically i have a 16gb ipad2 (big mistake) so space on the ipad is precious. obviously i occasionally need to remove games/apps to make way for other apps from my cloud. The problem is, when I remove an app to make way for the new app I lose all my progress in that game apart from the option to save leader-board stats (which is the least important thing to me). Its very annoying to get so far in a game only to have to remove it to make way for a movie and lose all my progress!!!!!
Any way round this?

I do not know how to save game data when deleting an app, but as for updating, if you connect the ipad to a computer and do the update through itunes, you will not have to download the update package to the ipad just to the computer. so you don't have to free up quite so much space, as for movie and photo storage you can look at the sandisk wireless and airstash wireless SD card adapters, they create their own wireless network and come with apps that allow you to store and then stream movies to the ipad instead of loading them to the ipad storage.

The latest iTunes software wiped out my apps for my 2G iPod Touch by overwriting newer releases of the apps which are not compatible with iOS 4.2.1. I tried to restore the iPod to an earlier version without success. Is there any way to download older versions of my apps which are compatible with my older iPod?

Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

Yes.
You should have copied everything from the old computer to the new one.

One of my kids has an iphone 4, the other has an ipod. Bluetooth is ON for both, but they are not discovering each other. Are there any suggestions? (They bought a simple texting app so the ipod could text the iphone.)

The built in BT profiles that iOS has do not include any kind of file sharing. Does the app say that it will text over BT? If so, then the connection would most likely be handled through the app itself. What is the name of this app?

sure pretty simple. make a backup of your current settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
then import pics to computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
you may need to save pics to camera roll first
then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes
