Printing pdf's in order they were created inside Access mdb

Apologies if this is not the correct forum.
I create a number of pdf's from Access reports. It's not uncommon to create 100+ pdfs at a time. When the pdfs are printed, they sometimes print out of order and they need to be printed in the order they are sent. How do I make this
happen?
I tried setting a timer after each pdf generation. The code pauses for 15 seconds after sending the pdf to the printer. This works some days but not all.
Is there another method to achieving this? Thanks

That would have to be controlled at the printer queue. The only thing I can think of would be to increase your pause time to make sure the first job finishes before the next file is sent.
One way that might work for you is to put as many reports as you can on one main report. The main report would be blank and do nothing more than serve as a "shell" to hold the sub reports. You'd have to put page breaks after each sub to make sure
they end up on separate sheets.

Maintenance Plan - Tasks are not executing in the order they were created

I've created a new maintenance plan to perform differential backups but the tasks I created don't necessarily seem to execute in order all the time. These are the tasks and order assigned when I created the plan using the Maintenance Plan Wizard:
Back Up Database (Differential)
Clean Up History
Maintenance Clean Up Task
Here's the deal...When it executes in the order they were created (above), all my old backups are deleted successfully. However, there have been instances where, for example, the Maintenance Clean Up task executes before the
Clean up History task. When this happens, only one of my backup files is deleted successfully but not the second (I have two .bak files needing to be removed). Furthermore, I noticed that the backup that wasn't deleted when it should
have gets deleted at the next increment when new backups are created.
Again, this does not happen when the tasks run in the sequence shown above. Only one old backup gets deleted (instead of two) when one of the above item is out of sequence. Strange behavior to say the least.
Any feedback on this will be appreciated!

If you do not set up precedence constraints it runs all tasks at the same time.

Processing files in the order they were placed using file adptr in 10.1.3.4

Dear experts,
Do we have an option for File adapter, whether it can process the files in the order they were placed on the mount directory.
Scenarios is: we have a third party system which generates a file for every 1 min. In case when BPEL service is down for sometime then files are getting accumulated and the moment we turn the service on, it is not processing files in the order they were created.
But the system to which we are sending file data, it needs data in order.
We are using soa suite 10.1.3.4.

HI Pavan,
I doubt if any such function is there.

My ipod is stuck in permanent shuffle. It won't play albums or my playlists in the order that they were created. How can I fix this?

My ipod is stuck in permanent shuffle. It won't play albums or my playlists in the order that they were created. How can I fix this?

Do yo have Shuffle turned on?
- On the Now Playing screen on the right hand side below the scrubber bar are crossed arrows. That is the Shuffle control. Tap it until it is white for no shuffle
- There is also Shake to Shuffle in Settings>Music
If still problem:
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Can I get iTunes to file ripped tracks in the exact order they were on the CD?

300 years ago, Bach wrote the Well Tempered Clavier "songs" to be played in a certain order. The geniuses at Apple offer lots of options for arranging the ripped tracks in every order except "List tracks in the order they were on the CD". Anyone have any ideas why Apple INSISTS upon destroying this carefully created order? iTunes CD imports are ripped in sequential order, why can't iTunes simply put them in the library in the order they are ripped? To omit this simple and obvious ordering is INCREDIBLY STUPID!! If the option to put CD tracks into the iTunes Library in the order they are ripped exists, but has been hidden by some genius, does anyone know how to find it? Why are programmers so obsessed with giving us "features" that they completely overlook the simple option of "Do not reorder the tracks at all", just store them in the library?
If iTunes is so stupidly designed that it is impossible to leave the order of tracks in the order they were on the CD ripped, is there any way I can reorder the tracks manually so that I can restore the tracks to the order Bach intended? The 3 ripped CDs are (no option) stored in individual folders. Is there a way to put all tracks in a single folder? Does Apple have any "suggestion box", or "bug reporting" input access? I wonder if they are following the modern trend (like Google), who allow no user feedback since they KNOW that THEIR geniuses produce only products that are already PERFECT when released. What colossal arrogance!

"The geniuses at Apple offer lots of options for arranging the ripped tracks in every order except "List tracks in the order they were on the CD". Anyone have any ideas why Apple INSISTS upon destroying this carefully created order?"
They don't. By default iTunes will import tracks and allow them to be viewed as albums in the "correct" order, assuming that the metadata elements used to control grouping into albums are correctly set.
"iTunes CD imports are ripped in sequential order, why can't iTunes simply put them in the library in the order they are ripped?"
Because "the order in which they are ripped" is not a well-defined concept. iTunes groups tracks into albums and orders discs/tracks within albums based on well-defined metadata elements. The issue that you may seeing is that much of the information that iTunes pulls from Gracenote to supply metadata for imported CDs is inconsistent or just plain wrong. Once the metadata is correctly specified, tracks will always be ordered correctly in the iTunes library (assuming sorting by album, disc # and track #).

I can't open 3 documents because trial upgrade to version 5 of pages happened. I don't want to pay $20 to get upgrade. How do I open docs in older version. They were created in older version.

Hi MBilyeu,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can use these steps to open your Pages documents with the previous version:
Permanently change the document’s app
Select the document and choose File > Get Info.
In the Info window, click the triangle next to “Open with” to expand the section.
Choose an app from the pop-up menu, or choose Other to locate a different app.
If you want to use that app to open all documents of the same type as the current document and created by the same app, click Change All.
Temporarily change the document’s app
You can open a document in a different app without changing the app that normally opens it. Use either of these methods:
Control-click the document, choose Open With, and then choose the app you want to use.
Drag the document to the app’s icon in the Dock or in the Finder.

OS X Mountain Lion: Choose an app to open a document

I need to move 1000 photos from one library to another. How do I do that and keep the ratings and dates they were created?

I need to move 1000 photos from one library to another. How do I do that and keep the ratings and dates they were created? I tried exporting them, but it loses all info. Also, how do I move the quicktime movies from one iphoto library to another? They were exported as jpgs

Add both libraries to iPhoto Library Manager. Then select the events or albums that you want to copy from library A and drag them to library B in iPLM.

How do I get iTunes to arrange movies (from a series) in the order they were released

Bottom line, we all download movies into iTunes and regardless of if you view them as a list or as cover art, they are always in alphabetical order. But when you have a series of movies (pick any of your favorites... Harry Potter, Twilight, Transformers, whatever.) as part of your collection, is there a way to get those movies to show in the order they were released?

You asked if there is a way to impose a more useful order, and there is, but it requires a little effort on your part. Doing so via the sort fields (in the iTunes Get Info window) means you keep the original display names but just influence the sort order. An alternative, but still effort, is to tell iTunes that a series of movies is a TV Show, and then use the Episode ID field to control order.
And no, local changes don't get mirrored to iCloud, so if you have a device that shows cloudly links to your purchases they will display with the original store metadata. In fact if you enable Show All Music and Show All Videos on your device the store metadata can sometimes be shown in preference to your edits even when you have the content in question loaded onto the device from your own library.
There aren't any features that would made the process easier. Use iTunes Feedback if you would like to suggest improvements.

How do I get iTunes to organize albums in the order they were released

iTunes displays the albums in the order of the tile. It should display the albums in the order they were released how are you supposed to do this I've played with sort order and it makes no difference. This seems pretty basic way of organizing an artists music has Apple lost their collective mind with this release of Itunes?

Why does it absolutely have to display albums by the order they were released? It can do what the programers want it to do.
You can sort by album, but then by multiple clicks on the album column header you can get album by artist and album by year.

How do I get videos and pictures taken in the same event to show in a slideshow in the order they were taken?

How do I get videos and pictures taken in Photos and the same Event to show in the order they were taken? Pictures and videos are seperated with videos at the end of both Photos and the Event.

You're welcome.
What's likely happened is that when you transferred the video to the new machine they lost their dates.
Photos use the Exif metadata to record the date and time of the shot. This is quite different from the date and time of the file, which can change as the file is copied from place to place. Video doesn't have Exif, and so iPhoto uses the file date, and that's changed.
Simply, there's no absoultely reliable way to date video.
Try assign dates with the Batch Change command under the Photos menu.

I have awks documents that have a dark icon which says 'exec' in the info panel. I get 'I/O error' when I open. They were created in Awks 6 but in 96-98 so they have transversed many OSs. Tried the Apple recovery technique, no luck.

I have awks documents that have a dark icon which says 'exec' in the info panel. I get 'I/O error' when I try to open. They were created in Awks 6 but in 96-98 so they have transversed many OSs. Tried the Apple recovery technique no luck. Running 10.5.8. on MBPro Intel.

Adding to the "any stunt you can think of" list. If you're not concerned with formatting and the documents are primarily text, open them in TextEdit. After a page or two of indecipherable code, you'll see the textual meat of the file, followed by more code. The text portion itself is often fairly readable, even if the file is damaged.

**get photos back in the order they were taken

Good morning all,
How do I get the photo in a specific collection back in the original order they were taken? I have no idea how I messed them up, but they are all mixed up and I can't see any logical order.
Any help will be appreciated.

As Don said, it is on the toolbar at the bottom of the grid area. If the toolbar is not there, press T. If the sort option isn't on the toolbar, click on the triangle at the right end of the toolbar and check the 'Sorting' item.

HT4597 Someone reset my iPhone and it was not me is there a way to find out how they were able to access my info?

Someone reset my iPhone and it was not me is there a way to find out how they were able to access my info?

There are two ways to reset an iPhone, 1) the user actually using the iphone can perform a reset from Settings, and 2) a user to knows the iphone's iCloud ID and password and do a remote reset.
I'm assuming you didn't personally reset it while on the iPhone, so my question is ... does anyone else know your iCloud ID and password? Have you set up multiple devices (perhaps belonging to other members of your family - something you generally shouldn't do, if you don't want to sync the same data to all devices in the family) and used the same iCloud ID on all of them? Perhaps a family member or a "friend" of a member used Find My iPhone to locate yours and remote wiped it.
