Set order of photo stream photos

is there ay way of setting the order of appearence of photos in photo stream or in camera folder.

No. The default is time/date order.
The easiest thing to do would be to look for a third party photos app that gives you more control.
Theoretically you can use a computer and file properties changer to make all the files the exact same time, and if they are then the photos app defaults to alphabetical order....but it's a bit tedious and if your photos folder is a constantly changing thing, likely more trouble than it's worth.

Photo Stream - How do I change the order the photos are in

I have several Photo Streams and I would like to change the order the photos are displayed on the subscribed Streams.
I have tried on Mac, and iPad3, iPhone4S and there does not seem to be an option.
Any help would be greatful.
Thanks, Mark.
iPhoto 11, Mountain Lion.

I believe photo streams are sorted bhy dagte. So if you're in iPhoto on your Mac order the photos in an album they way you want them and select all of them. Use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Set Date menu option to apply a date to all of them with a 1 minute interval between each.
Add the new changed photos to the photo stream again and they should remain in the same order as in the album.

How to upload from iphoto to icloud in title order using photo share (not photo stream)?

I can get the albums within iphoto (V9.6) into title order, however when they are uploaded to icloud (photo share, not photo stream) they lose that order. Can the photo shared images on the icloud web link be uploaded/or organised into the order that I have painstakingly created?

December 2014 Case Resolved by midnorthcoast
I found Old Toad's remedy presented by Tedious Tom here Keeping desired order of photos when sharing on iCloud
After labelling (titling) each of the 300 or so images carefully in numerical order I wanted to be sure that that's how they would be viewed once uploaded from iPhoto to Photo Share (not Photo Stream). Note that I didn't want the ensuing iCloud weblink to be automatically emailed to others. I wanted to email the link personally. I find the automatic invitation's presentation confusing in regard to having to register to view the images or simply clicking the less obvious link. Plus I wanted the invitation to be more personal.
Here's how I did it:
Transferred images from Finder to their own album within iPhoto
With the album open, made sure images were in title order, View/Sort Photos/By Title
Selected all images
Followed Old Toad's advice (except I changed from 1 minute to 1 second), Photos/Batch Change/Set Date/Add 1 second between each photo
Shared with iCloud, Share/iCloud
Dialogue box comes up, Clicked on New photo stream
Another dialogue box, filled in one of my email addresses (not my iCloud identity), unticked Subscribers Can Post, ticked Public Website, clicked Share
Opened iCloud within iPhoto and waited until finished uploading
Highlighted the album, clicked Info, copied the weblink shown under Public Website and pasted into personal email invitations

How can I save the order of photos in albums? Even though I have set as album order they revert back

How can I save the order of photos in albums in Elements 11? Even though I have set as album order they revert back to original order.

Could you confirm that when you re-open the sorted album, the display order on the top bar just over the browsing space is still in 'album' order ? That order may have been changed to a date order. For me, I get the order of the last album I opened, not necessarily the 'album' order of the present album.

I have set up my photos in Adobe Elements 12 organiser and wish to download them to Snapfish in order to create a photobook, but it seems I am unable to do this. Adobe do not provide a hardcopy photobook service

I have set up my photos in Adobe Elements 12 organiser and wish to download them to Snapfish in order to create a photobook, but it seems I am unable to do this. Adobe do not provide a hardcopy photobook service. Can anyone help me please? I don't want to have to reformat all my photos. It has taken me the whole week to do it in Adobe Elements. I was unaware that Adobe no longer have this service as it misleadingly appears that they do.

You are in the wrong forum. We don't do Elements here.
This is the Photoshop proper forum. There's no "Organizer" (American spelling) in Photoshop.
The "Elements" forum is here:
Community: Photoshop Elements | Adobe Community
Incidentally you are not addressing Adobe here.
I've been using Adobe products for very, very close to 30 years, and I have never hear of an "Adobe photo book service".

Can I change the order of photos in Events

I am in the process of scanning my old film photos so that I can put them into iPhoto. As I have no scanner I take them to Wal Mart and scan them onto a CD then import them into iPhoto at home. Because the CD holds the photos from a number of events I then distribute them to a number of different Event folders.
Once I get all the photos into their correct Event folders I would like to rearrange their order. Using drag and drop, or cut and paste, simply leaves the photo in it's original location. If I use the 'Moving photos from one event to another' feature the moved photos will still go into the new Event folder in the same order as they were in the originating folder, regardless of what order I drag or paste them.
The help menu has topics on how to change the order of photos in a slideshow, book or calender, but not an event. I could arrange the photos beforehand so that they are scanned in the order in which I want them to appear in Events, but with 500+ photos in completely random order it will be fairly time consuming. It also will not help with the disc of photos I have already made.
So, to finally get to my question, does anybody know if there is a way to rearrange the order of photos within an Event folder?
Rgds

Events are strictly time based. If you put those photos in an album and in the order you want, you can set their date and time by using the PHotos->Batch Change->Date and set the date and time you want with the checkbox to add the time differential you'd like between photos. That will reorder them in the Event also.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

How can I change the order of photos in iPhoto so I can create the slide show I want?

How to change the order of photos in iPhoto on my iPad, so I can create the slide show I want.

Here's what I did to generate a slide show with Ken Burns effect on the iPad...with the exact same slide order I created on the iMac. I have iOS 5.5 and iPhoto App on New iPad, and iPhoto 11 on iMac.
In iPhoto for the Mac, create a new Album and give it the name of your Slide Show. Drag or import the photos you want into the album. Rearrange the order of the album photos as desired. Do this by selecting Manual Sort under View/Sort Photos or simply start dragging thumbnails to the places you want them (the sort method will automatically change to Manual).
When you have the order you want, shut down iPhoto on the Mac to make sure iPhoto's database gets updated with the new photos and their order.
Restart iPhoto and go to File/Export on the top menu. Select File Export at the top left of the Export window. Set JPEG quality to Max, Size to Full Size, and File Name to Album Name and Number. Set Subfolder Format to None.
Click Export to bring up what looks like the Finder. Create an empty folder on your hard drive under Pictures and give it the name of your slide show. Click on the new folder and then click OK at the bottom right of the Finder-like window. The new folder will contain JPEG files with file names in the form, Album Name - 001.jpeg, Album Name - 002.jpeg, etc. There will also be an iPOD Photo Cache folder. Click at the top of the Name column to order files by file name. 001 will be your first slide, 002 your second, etc.
Now start up iTunes. You are going to force the Mac to sync these new photos with the iPad. Click on your iPad device in the list at the left. Now click on the Photo button at top right. Make sure the Sync Photos check box at top is checked, then select Choose Folder... from the list at right. In the Finder-like window that opens, select the folder where your slides are. Make sure that All Folders is checked, then select Open at the bottom right.
Now click Sync at bottom right. The slides will be copied to your iPad. Both the Photos app and the iPhoto app will properly handle the slide order, and the Ken Burns effect is available using the iPhoto app.
I ran across this problem in preparing a Ken Burns slide show for a wedding. Drove me nuts for a week why the order changes when syncing an iPhoto album from iMac to iPad. But this worked and gave me several options. I plan to use the digital AV adapter for iPad and show slides on a large screen TV using HDMI connection from iPad to TV. TV essentially acts as an external monitor for the iPad.
Hope this helps!

Sort order in Photo Browser

The sort order of photos appearing in Photo Browser while in Mail has been, until recently, showing the most recent photos first.
Today, it started showing the oldest photos first.
Any ideas about what I did to change the order, and how I can reverse the current sort order to return to the prior state?
I'd like to have the newest photos appear first, as they have for some time.
Running Mail in Snow Leopard 10.6. 8.
Many thanks for help!

Thanks Steven,
Ok I was only half wrong so they are in alphabetical order, but not numerical order. In the Mac finder window in list or icon view it sorts automatically in alphabetical and numerical. Question 1: Is there no way to change the sorting order in Premiere?
I'm still living with a few projects that were shot on tape and where the previous video editor auto numbered digitized clips. Question 2: I'm not going to redigitize this project in Premiere, but for another tape based project would I be able to set up this numbering scheme you mention?
The mac finder sorts them correctly due to an update they did to the OS a long time ago that means it recognizes 10 as coming after 9 rather than needing to put 09 for it to work. Most systems don't work that way.
You could always download a simple batch renaming app, I think there's a few around, and just rename them with zeros in front. Would probably take you about ten minutes tops, including downloading the app.
As for sorting them within Premiere, in list mode you just click the header of the column you want to sort by. But if you're sorting by name it will display them in the order they're currently in, because that is technically correct.

t I am currently in canada and trying to get the book sent to Australia. Im not sure if apple is picking up my location and that is having any affect on it?
The AppleID you are using to buy the book, must be tied to the location of the store where you are ordering the book from. Is your AppleID associated with an australian address? And are you placing the order at the Australian store? The Canadian store will not shiptoAustralia, see these policies: http://www.apple.com/internetservices/terms/sales_policies.html
Also set the "Region" in the language & Text preferences to "Australia", while you are ordering.

How to reorganize order of photos in an album on iphone 4s. ios7.1.2. When I synced photos from an album on my computer, the order of photos on my iphone was our of order.

How can I reorganize the order of photos in an album on my iphone 4s, ios7.1.2. When I synced an album from my computer to my iphone, the photos are not in the same order as on my computer. I want the photos in a particular order, not in the order I added them to my computer.

I have one album of several that are synced from my computer that I needed to have in a specific order. I finally accomplished that by naming the photos alphabetically in the order I wanted them (I didn't have many and simply placed an "a" in front of the first, "b" in the second etc). I did this on the computer and then synced them again. Note that each time you sync via iTunes, the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone will be set to match the current iTunes selection/settings so you can repeat several times if needed before you get it right.

If i set up my photos to be saved in icloud and i backup to my pc.will them appear on a new iphone i'm going to buy ?

You didn't get very good advice. Rather than backing up, I would have imported the photos to a computer as described in iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
If you backed up to a computer using iTunes, the backups are stored in a format that is designed only for restoring to another iOS device. You should however be able to extract the photos using 3rd party software such as http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/ibackupextractor/
If the pictures were included in Photo Stream and if they are still there, you could retrieve them using information in iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ

HT1051 I bought my macbook in Canada and ordered a photo book. I am now in France and would like to order one for here. does it still have to be sent from Canada?

I bought my mac book in canada and ordered a photo book from iphoto. I am now in France and want to reorder, do I have to have the books sent from Canada. It seems so unecessary.

You can set the print products country in the iPhoto preferences - you may be able to order the book - teh rules seem to change on payment method and shipping locations - available information that I have found is here - http://store.apple.com/us/help/print_products/routing
