Photos randomly out of order when published to my gallery!

Photos are in the right order in iPhoto on my mac (Library, Albums, Web), but when the album is published to my gallery the photos are completely and randomly out of order.
The name of each photo is just the number given by the camera, and iPhoto had correctly imported the folder of photos in chronological order from a hard disk.
Also, there are videos which sometimes work in the gallery, but for some it says quicktime cannot play the video, and sometimes the video is UPSIDE DOWN!
How can I get the correct order (and functioning videos)?
Thanks

In the gallery on the web, I see no pattern to the random order.
Aha! In iPhoto (back on my mac), I now see that the order from the import at the beginning ("events") is not the same as the original folder (where all files were in order of file number). I see the problem there - iPhoto imports the photos in the correct order until it encounters a video. The videos (.mov) are mostly in the wrong place, although I found one in the right place (just to make it impossible to say always, grr).
Then when the mostly in order (apart from videos out of order) "album" is published to the web gallery, photos and videos are completely out of order.
I had never tried including videos in photo albums in iPhoto, I think because in previous versions this was impossible. So I had published one video at a time to its own "album" on the gallery. Maybe iPhoto is mixed up by these videos in with photos. Strange though, because it gives details about how many photos and how many videos in the album, and seems to act like this would be possible.
So, resetting the order in iPhoto does not allow me to republish maintaining this order. In the publishing process, somehow all are randomly mixed up. The only way I can see to reorder everything in the gallery is to move them all manually there in the gallery when connected to my account at me.com
I had hoped to find a better solution, because this would take a long time to do.

Photos synch out of order

Photos from some of my albums synch out of order when I upload them. How can I prevent this or else how can I fix the order on the iPod? The photos are numbered and should have stayed in order. (Most albums loaded in order - a few didn't.)

I had the same problem when I converted a Power Point to .jpg files. Each slide was given a number 1, 2, 3, . . . 10, 11, 12, . . .
The problem is that the iPod reads the numbers and shows the photos "alphabetically" so the order ends up being 1, 10, 11, 12, . . . 2, 20, . . .
You need to renumber or rename each photo either so they're 01, 02, 03, . . . or a, b, c, . . .

Why are my pictures in the "All Photos" Album out of order?

Within Albums there is an "All Photos" folder but some of the photos are out of order. How is this "All Photos" album different to the "Photos" view (which is in the correct order) and why are they not the same?

Thanks, that's a helpfuland explanation of the difference and makes sense as all my photos are actually in an album (which was an event in the previous version).
However it doesn't explain why the order in "all photos" is different. It is not in the order that the albums are arranged, and odd photos seem randomly scattered about separated from other photos from the same album.
On a separate note It's also a shame as there is no way of arranging the albums chronologically (which you could do with events)

Using Aperture 2, photos imported out of order

I'm finding that when I import pictures from my card reader, that the photos are out of order, a lot of the time, and am wondering if there is something that I can do to correct this.
Thanks in advance for any help!

You can sort the images in Aperture in a number of ways:
You can also go into list view and sort on fields that are not in the list above. Finally you can modify the displayed metadata to add something to the default set that you want to sort on.

Import photos are out of order

I hope I can explain this so it makes sense. I am trying to import photos from a compact flash card. When they come into Lightroom they are out of order. I have tried sorting them by all the different means in the drop down but still are not correct. I notice that for some reason some of the photos show incorrect dates and that seems to be what is affecting the import. Lightroom is putting the photos from the oldest date first. I was able to load the pictures into a folder on the desktop and they are in the correct order just using the camera file names. When I tried to load them from that folder into Lightroom, they went back to the incorrect order. Is there a way to import without the metadata? Is that what is fouling this up? I don't know where these weird dates have come from but they are there and I can't get rid of them.
I am running Lightroom on an imac with OS 10.4.11 and this is the first I have run into this problem. These photos are from an older camera, a Nikon Coolpix 885 and are my son's photos. I normally import from my Canon camera using a compact flash with a reader and have never had such a problem. Here I am talking up Lightroom to my son about how easy it is to get the photos in and organize them and he is not buying it at this point. Hopefully this makes sense and someone knows what is going on.
Thanks

The date information is taken from the camera which writes it to the file. This needs to be set to the correct date and time in the camera itself.
The order the images are shown in the Library mode is set by clicking on the sort button in the tool bar, which if not showing can be activated from view, tool bar. There are different sort orders that can be applied including sorting by file name. You can also sort by dragging the images to the order you wish them to appear in by selecting user order.

How do I keep photos in a particular order when burning to disc?

I made an Album in iPhoto5 of 200 photos from a recent trip. The photos in the Album don't follow the sequence I shot them. I want the photos to stay in the new order I've given them, and I'd like to include titles to help explain many of the pictures. When I put the photos into a folder in Finder to burn them, they go out of order. Can I asign sequential numbers to this Album and still retain the titles? How do I keep them in order??? Thanks

Hi Tom,
You should be able to make a slidshow almost as easy as what you're trying to do right now... it'll take some pratice
Personally, I have both exported a slideshow from iPhoto to iDVD and also created a slideshow directly in iDVD, the latter is a better fit for what you're doing.
Open iDVD, create new project, name as you like and save, will auto open to work window, click on 'customize', pick a theme you like. Now click on 'Map' and in the customize pane click on 'Media'. In the media pane you have itunes, photos and movie, select photos... you're iPhoto library will appear along with all the albums you might have created and organized. Here's what makes it sweet, you can drag each album into the 'Map' Theme icon and it will automatically import and turn into a slideshow and take on the name of the album... to see your progess hit the Preview button... you'll have to do a little learning and tweaking, you can add music etc., but that's it, you made a slide show ready to burn to a dvd...
My suggestions would be to organize albums as you like, named appropriately and just have fun with it. You can save and go back and edit at a later date. Use the highlight and delete or cut options to remove etc etc etc...
You can burn project using the File > Burn DVD option or you can save the FINAL production use the File > Save As Disk Image option, and you can burn the DVD through disk utility which will give you more options on burn speed and buring at 1x speed may yield the best results...

Clips are out of order when drug to Timeline

I was working with final cut pro, showing a friend how to use it and ran into a problem that has never happened when I've used it on my machine. We did log and capture, and captured the video. then I went Mark-> DV Start/Stop Detect. From there I selected the first segment and the last segment and drug them to the timeline. once in the time line they were all out of order. Usually they are placed in the time line 1 through 80 or however many there are, one after another. There is nothing else in the time line. When I drug them this time they would be arranged in all different orders. Anyone have any idea whats going on with this?
Thanks in advance.
TY

It goes by the Track # field, as seen in on a list in iTunes. So, make sure the Track # field is correctly entered for each song when you review the album on a list in iTunes. Also, make sure the Album field is entered identically for all the songs on the album.
You can edit those fields by doing a Get Info on a song, and going to the Info windows's Info tab,

Task Line Numbers Move Out of Order When Adding Resource to a Task

I am using MS Project 2013 and we are in the process of setting up Project Server 2013.
When I add a resource to a task and close the summary task and re-open the task is moved to the bottom of that section and the line numbers are out of order.
For example line number 382 is the third task under the summary task. When I add a resource, hide the subtasks and then expand the subtasks line number 382 is now at the bottom after line 389. The line numbers then go 381, 383, 384... until 389
then 382 is after 389.
I want to keep the tasks in sequential order.
Has anyone seen this problem before? I have done extensive research online and cannot seem to find any one with a similar issue.
Thank you! :)

Hi Dnbree,
Do you have any filters applied to the view in Project Pro? Try to change view and check if you experience the same issue.
Also check if the view uses a sorting in the view tab of the ribbon, such as sort by resources.
Hope this helps.

Out of order when put /take packages in/from a blocking queue

Hello all:
I put multiple packages in a blocking queue in one thread, and take them out from another thread. The in sequence is 1-2-3, the out sequence becomes 3-2-1. This is NOT a FILO pattern, there is no pattern: it could be 3-1-2, etc.
The question is: can out-of-order issue even take place when put()/take() operations impose on a blocking queue? If it's not possible, which I believe, I'll look elsewhere for the cause. Otherwise, why and how to fix it.
Thanks,
John

Please provide an [url http://sscce.org]SSCCE that demonstrates this.
Unless you're using a PriorityQueue or some other specialized implementation, it should be a FIFO order. Check the docs for the implementation you're using.

Option key is out of order when I want to select a boot disk

I've upgraded the OsX10.6.8.
after then, I can't boot by Bootcamp any more, because the Option key is out of order. I've tried it over 10 times. What's wrong?

Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.

Photos come out real dark when printed on various printers

Im really unsure if this is an Indesign problem or not but most everything I do is created in InDesign along with Photoshop, Acrobat, and other Adobe products. Im just out of ideas on what the problems could be so thought I would take a crack at Adobe being the problem? I just dont know!
When I print things out on our high end Xerox color printer, things tend to come out more on the darker side. Its mostly noticable with photographs but it can also be seen in general solid colors also. I generally make the printer print 85% lighter from its settings and things will usually come out acceptable.
When I send files to out digital plate maker, usually as black/grayscale, the photographs will always come out real dark. For this, I have to over compensate by editing each photo individually so they no longer look normal on my screen, but overly faded just so it will look properly on our DPM.
This is something I have been dealing with for several years and though its basically a part of life now, I still cant stand it! All drivers, patches, and firmware is updated, printer color is calibrated, even paid techs to figure it out...nothing! For both our standard black and white printers, these files usually print out ok, all photos look just as good as they do on screen.
Well we just got a new large color plotter machine for printing large banners and signs. I dont operate it but the one who does seem to know his stuff. He said his program will only work with EPS files. I had created a press quality PDF from InDesign that I then converted to EPS as well as creating an EPS directly from InDesign. All files looked nice and bright on both my screen as well as his. On his first sample printout on the plotter, the images came out dark!!!!! Why???? We made new files where again, I overcompensated by fading the photos out bigtime to where they look horrible on screen but printed out mostly ok on the machine.
This cant be the normal way things are done, Is this an InDesign problem or what??? Any suggestions would be great because we are out of ideas!

I believe Xerox ships the EyeOne spectrohotometer. The companion software for that is Eye-One Match, which gets installed on your computer. I don't know if that's included. If it is, the software will lead you through adjusting the monitor and will then record a profile and associate it with the monitor. Adobe apps will use that profile to display color on screen. Each monitor needs to be profiled -- generic profiles shipped on the install disk for the monitor are useless in a color critical workflow, they match some hypothetical average monitor, or one that was pulled off the assembly line long before yours was built, and every monitor is unique in how it displays a give set of color numbers.
There should be some icc profiles on the support disks for the printers. These are the output profiles you need to target in ID, or you need to output as a standard RGB profile like Adobe RGB and let the RIP do the conversion internally to the Xerox color space.
This is a pretty complex thing to explain in detail here. You should read the Color Management section of the help files, any documentation that came with the Fiery, and I highly recommend Real World Color Management by Olav Kvern and David Blatner which is easy to read without a lot of technical jargon, and clearly explains both the theory and practice of color management in the real world (though it's now a few years old).

CP4 - Audio out of sync when publish to AVI

Hi Everyone,
I'm having a problem when I create a presentation using most screen demonstrations where when I try to publish to AVI the audio moves out of whack.
I am running a Vista PC with lots of RAM.
When I publish to Flash it works fine... but we got this thing so that it would produce an AVI !
Any ideas? I have played around with screen capture and encoding settings but to no avail.
Any help much appreciated!

Hello there,
I am very sorry to hear that you have encountered problems when publishing to AVI. Since when you publish to SWF you do not experience the same problems, I would strongly recommnend that you report this issue to the Captivate team using the web address I have included below.
Adobe Captivate Feature Request/Bug Report Form
I have seen some issues with the AVI converter and it would be useful if the CP team could inspect your source Captivate file.
If you are working to a deadline then in the meantime you might want to download a trial version of SoThink's SWF To Video Converter. At least for this project you could then get the files converted to AVI whilst you wait to hear back from the CP team.

Problem not being able to click on photo album in nav bar when published

Still a newbie I am trying to make an iweb site. Everything has gone well and after a week of playing around with it at nights this is my site: www.tinybulls.com. Nothing fancy but hopefully it will work for me.
Everything is functioning well, I think (fingers crossed), except that the photo album button in the navigation bar is not clickable and i cannot get into that page when published. I use Safari if that info helps.
Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance!

You created image files for each link and linked the box. A quick test would be do delete the current linked object and recreate it.
If you link the text rather than the text box or object you can format the text's rollover and visited color. Also having text based links are more search engine friendly.

Some of my albums are not in the correct order when transferred from itunes on my laptop to my ipod classic. Can anyone suggest how I can correct this please

It goes by the Track # field, as seen in on a list in iTunes. So, make sure the Track # field is correctly entered for each song when you review the album on a list in iTunes. Also, make sure the Album field is entered identically for all the songs on the album.
You can edit those fields by doing a Get Info on a song, and going to the Info windows's Info tab,
