LR 3.0 library sorting ...

Hi,
I want to sort my library by image size in megabytes or resolution size greater/less than "x". I don't see a category for this anywhere. Is this possible in LR? TIA for any input.
Brian

Thanks, Ian

Keep album stacked together by album artist, in a library sorted by artist?

I have my iTunes library sorted after “Artist”. Which gives me nothing but trouble with collections or collaborations.
So what I would like to do is have iTunes to ignore the default or general sorting by “Artist”. And instead sort only this album by “Album Artist”.
I have 12 songs with the same album title, same genre, same album artist but with different song names and artist.
But regardless of how I try to tell iTunes that it has to sort this one by album artist and not the artist, it never does.
I have tried at select all the 12 songs, get info. Write the same Albums Artist, the same Album Title and leave the Artist blank. And I choose sort by Album Artist and under option I choose part of a collection.
But this isn’t working for me, As soon I go back to my library, which sorted by Artist. The albums is still spread all over the place.
HOW DO I KEEP THESE 12 SONGS STACKED TOGETHER, without having to chance the Artist to Various Artists and write each individual artist to the song title?
Which in my opinion is the wrong and oldschool approach.

Yes, I have just checked and rechecked it again. I have set an Album Artist value for each songs and the album in general. And even if i add the Album by Artist to my list view and sort after that. It still acts up. It can't for some reason keep the correct collections together, eventhough they are set as a collection in options.
But i don't really, keeping collections together didn't used to be a problem before. But i will keep trying some different things. But it's pretty annoying, that iTunes has such trouble with this.
I really have a pretty tighty library, everything is named and set up correctly (haha, or apparently not).
But thanks for the help.

Music library sorts differently on iPhone and iPad

Odd issue... My music library sorts differently on my iPad and iPhone music app despite having identical setting (ie. sort by album artist toggled off)
Album View... On my iPhone, the first album is A-Sides by Soundgarden. On the iPad, the first album is Hunting High and Low by A-Ha. iPhone sorts by album, iPad by artist in this view.
Artist View.... Both devices list A-Ha first, as well as a compilation album they appear on. The iPhone displays Take on Me by A-Ha as the only track on this album. The iPad shows Take on Me first, but then displays the 19 other tracks on this album, all by other artists.
Any insights? Thanks!

Sadly this is a bug that I have been able to relicate on 3 different devices, and that has NOT been fixed by 7.1.2
To replicate, you need an "oldish" device (iPhone 4 & 4S, iPad 2 & Mini), and an iTunes match subscription with quite a few songs.
Start from a clean slate:
- Switch off iTunes match (settings / apps store or music)
- Kill all apps
- Reboot
- Reset (home +power until apple appears)
Check available space on settings / general / about
Then:
- Activate iTunes match
- Play some non locally stored music
- Wait
Yesterday, it took 1h for my iPad mini with 5.3GB available to show the "storage almost full" message and 0 bytes available
Note that I have tried with a full reset and it does not change anything.
To solve the problem:
- Switch off iTunes match
- Reset
The memory is now back (but I cannot use iTunes match)

Library sorting question

I hate that all of my albums are split up when sorted by genre . I have tried 'Album artist' and 'Part of a compilation.'
All I ask for is how can I sort by Genre, Album, then Track and not Genre, artist, then album?

Hi, Nick.
Have you activated the iTunes Browser display panel?
If not go to the iTunes View menu > Show Browser option.
Then go to the iTunes Edit menu > Preferences > Advanced tab > General sub-tab and select Show genre when browsing.
Now you can select a genre in the Browser and sort the contents of your iTunes Library for that genre by clicking on the Album column heading.
Is that what you're looking for?

Why can't you sort more than one column in the Library or is it possible?

Music library sorting keeps changing

i have my music library set to sort by "album by artist/year". i use itunes in grid view so i go back and change artist, then go through their albums. for reasons i just cannot pinpoint, itunes changes my sorting back to albums alphabetically. it is the column with the track numbers: http://i.imgur.com/jBTQE.png
i try to reproduce the error by going into the itunes store, by scrolling up and down, using the get info window, but something else is triggering it. there is no connection to the artist i'm viewing. if i set my preferred view to one artist, it works with all, but soon enough it switches back to the other column. what is causing this?
all i want is itunes to sort by my preferred album by artist/year.

I am having the same problem but research into the subject seems to suggest that we are the only ones. I can't find anything useful on this or other forums on how to resolve the problem. It is quite frustrating as I am a very organized individual. I even went through my entire library and checked/corrected all of the album year information. I also have the album by artist/year option selected in two fields ( above the album artwork on the far left and in the album field above the written name). I have gone through one artist at a time and clicked on the option which fixes it but ten minutes later I can go back and there in alphabetical again! It seems to be random as to which artists it changes as well because it doesn't change all of them just some, but to no rhyme or reason as to which ones. I am getting sick of clicking the option every time I open an artist and it's back in alphabetical. Why can't it just stay in the selected sorting order? If either of you or anyone else has figured out how to fix this please let me know, it's making me want to throw my macbook pro into something solid!

Itunes Library sorting

I remember having an older version of itunes where you could sort library by artist and their albums, now when you do this it sorsts as such but it has the tracklist with the album, is there a way to sort your library now, by just grouping the artists albums and not showing the tracklist.
Thanks

is there a way to sort your library now, by just grouping the artists albums and not showing the tracklist
No.
You can view Albums & sort by Artist.
They aren't grouped with a separator but they are Artist order.

Using Display tag library - sorting and Paging

I have generated a grid using this tag library which has number of in built features. Out of which on is grid sorting and pagination. But this sorts the grid in one page only, not complete grid. Does any one have solution for this? I am trying to get the source code which does this. If any one has solution then please help me..
Thanks!

In this case you have to do external sorting insted of defalutsorting provided by dispaly Tag Library. find sample code for External Sorting.
Follow the Steps:
<display:table name="testList" {color:#ff0000}sort="external"{color} defaultsort="1" id="empTable">
<display:column property="id" title="ID" sortable="true" {color:#ff0000}sortName="id"{color} />
<display:column property="firstName" sortable="true" title="First Name" />
<display:column property="lastName" sortable="true" title="Last Name" />
<display:column property="address" sortable="true" title="Email Address"/>
</display:table>
To determine the request parameter name for column(like ID) sorting you can do :
String studenid = request.getParameter((new ParamEncoder("empTable")).encodeParameterName(TableTagParameters.PARAMETER_SORT))
fire a query in DAO Class using request parameter to get sorted list and map a resultset to table.

Movie Library, sorting HELP!!!

I recently converted home movies and imported them to itunes. One thing that I notice is I can't sort them alphabetically. There is no rhyme or reason to the way that itunes sorts the movie titles. I am familiar with sorting by genre, name, time, etc. etc. but even then itunes does not sort them properly.
I.e. Genre, then alphabetically.
In addition I can't add a description, or movie rating to the file.
Now the purchased movies from itunes seem to organize properly, which might have something to do with the files it self. Who knows? Can anyone help me figure this out?
Thanks for your help

Figured it out..
Thanks anyway

The/a/an in Library sorting

Hi,
I recently downloaded the latest itunes update. During installation, I chose French as the language. Today I noticed that the songs were no longer sorted disregarding the/a/an in the Artist name (ie The Rolling Stones, The Beatles etc are now under 'T', not 'R' or 'B'). I thought this must be because it was in French, so I changed it back to English. However, 'The ...' is still sorted under 'T'. I'd really like to change it back but I can't work out how. I don't know whether this has been caused by the itunes update or by having it in French. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Jesse

In the Finder type Cmd-Shift-G
Paste this line and hit Go
/Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/Resources
Open folder French.lproj.
Open file SortPrefixes.plist in TextEditor.
Add the prefixes to the list in alphabetical order.
You need to have Administrator Rights to save the file.
It appears that not all Nations are equal:

How is the iPhoto library sorted?

I have over 5000 pictures that have been accumulated over many years. They are in iPhoto '11 (version 9.4.2).
The way that Apple's application sorts them has them organized differently than how I want them to appear.
How can I change the sort?
Ken

Ken,
what view are you talking about?
The arrangements of photos within an event or the sorting of events?
You can control the sorting of items in the browser from the "View" menu in iPhoto's main menu bar:
View > Sort Events (manually, by date, by title)
or
View > Sort Photos (by date, by keyword, by title, by rating)

How can I sort Library by name?

After migrating to iMovie 11 and having all my folders by year wiped out, I'm trying to figure out how to reorder my library so the events are in order by date.
I don't think there is a way to make an iMove library sort by date (please tell me if wrong), or group by date (as I used to in the old iMovie with folders for each year).
So I'm wondering just how to resort. I have all my events named sort-of by date, like
2004 BBQ
2004 spring trip
2007 ski trip
2008 party
but then I have others where I added the month to the start of the event name, so for Feb 2004:
200402 swim meet
and they are sorting now so 200402 comes after 2008, so things are now out of order (I understand it is doing by number).
Wondering the best way to quickly get these back so I can have them in order/group by date. I have TONS of events and now their order is a mess.
Or if my only fix is to rename all of my events with YYYYMMDD or YYYYMM, etc., which would be a big big bummer...
Thanks

It might be possible, but it's not a simple modification. The script extracts the purchaser's name via a shell script using grep, so to change it so that the playlist is named for the iTunes Store account name, someone would have to be able to figure out how to extract the account name via a grep. That's not something I have yet figured out. You could email Doug and ask if this is something he could consider for a future version:

Sorting library with songs in asian language

I have asian music (japanese, korean, chinese) on my library and their info are written in asian text. the problem is, when i sort my library by artist or song title, it places asian text on top of the english ones.. so my library is arranged in ascending order of numbers (0-9), then asian songs, and english in alphabetical (a-b-c..z) order. i checked my friends itunes who also had songs in asian text and on theirs, english came before those languages.
it would be much more convenient for me if the songs in english appeared on top. how can i make my library sort my music so that the songs in asian text are placed underneath songs in english.
fyi, i use windows xp and its default language is english.

Go into iTunes, connect your iPod, and then wait for it to connect. Once connected, click on the arrow to "expand" your iPod (if all files are not already shown), then click "Music". Then, at the top, click "Artist", then disconnect.
Hope it helps!!

By what methood does the iPhone sort photos in the Photo Library?

I would like to have all of our family photos get sorted chronologically in the Photo Library on the iPhone. However, much of our photos are from scans so they have the scanned time in the time stamp as opposed to when they were actually taken. If I manually put the time in iPhoto will that affect how the iPhone Photo Library sorts the photos? The iPhone doesn't appear to sort by name, so a method of renaming photos beginning with the date (YearMonthDay - 19920127) probably would not affect how the iPhone Photo Library sort them. Is there a way to do this?

OK yes Loading apps are faster...But for some reason 4 got latency and lag once in a while compared to the 3GS...its not a zippy...its wierd to explain...but theres a lot of post about it here.
Im guessing the A4 chip is not 1GHz since performance is not that big of a difference compared to the 3GS, Where as the 3GS was big improvement from the 3g and thats only less than 200MHz difference.

Sorting again the iTunes music library

Hi,
I'm looking for an application that can re-arrange my iTunes library. In other words, I've exported the library and I want to have every album in a separate folder, unfortunately, having checked the 'keep sorted' option in the preferences of iTunes, I have the library sorted by artist.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I suggest one be very careful about using these programs. Make certain the sort order, location and so forth are specific. Do just download and start clicking. Perhaps experiment on a few songs first.
Hope this helps.
