Parameters to be sorted in alphabetical order

Hi,
Can you please let me know whether the parameters values are by default sorted in alphabetical order...refering to discoverer viewer/plus...
Thanks in advance
Sri

If you are referring to the item classes (list of values), they would be sorted in alphabetical order. The parameter values wud appear in the same order in which the lovs appear in admin.
If you want to customize the sorting (reorder), you can do so using alternate sort tab in edit item class.
you can refer to the admin users guide.

Smart folder sorting?

I have long relied on smart folders to help me find the largest files on my hard drive, letting me save space when necessary... however, I can't seem to find any size-sorting option on Smart Folders this time around (when it was really easy to find in OS X 10.4). I can sort in regular folders by size, but not in Smart Folders... anyone figure this out?

Two options:
1) Click Cmd+F. This will create a search. With the little drop down menu on the left (might start with "Kind") select "Other". A window pops up and you can select "Size" (if you use this a lot, select the tick box on the right that says "In Menu"). Then set your size and Spotlight will find it for you. Then, once the search is running/ran, click on the "Save" button, and it will save to your Saved Searches in your sidebar (which I think is a cool addition)
2) Similar to the first... Press OptCmdN (or select New Smart Folder from the File menu) just like before. In the toolbar, there should be a little gear (if not, add it to the toolbar by going to the View menu and selecting Customize Toolbar). Click on the gear and then on the option "Show Search Criteria". Repeat the second half of option 1 above and TA-DA!, you have yourself a new smart folder.

Sorting in alphabetical order

How can I sort paragraphs alphabetically in Pages 09?

Inside the WordService 2.7 download folder is a file called ReadMe.rtf double click it and it should open in Text Edit and says:
"Installation:
+Copy WordService into the directory "Services" (located in the Library folder of your home directory), then log out and log in again. If there's no such folder, just create one using the Finder."+
In the side bar on the lefthand side of every open Finder window should be a little house icon probably with your name next to it. This is your computer account.
Click on it and find the folder labeled Library which should contain another folder called Services. If you don't have a Services folder create one:
+Menu > New Folder > click on it and name it "Services"+
Drag WordService.service from your downloaded WordService folder into the above folder. +Do not+ drag the whole folder in.
Now you will find the contained services under every application (including Finder) menu (eg the Pages menu) in a submenu called Services. There are many services in the menu. The specific services you want are +Format > Sort Lines Ascending/Descending.+

Sort in Alphabetical order

Hi everyone,
I am new for Forum. I have an doubt. How can we sort a list of text in alphabetical order in Indesign. Actually in TOC there is an option but it is not correct like word or Excel. Any other good option.

What are you trying to sort? And what is wrong with the sorting you get?

Won't sort in alphabetic order. Listed by type.

The music on my iPod and iPhone does not go in order. They are in alphabetic order in mp3 formate then start over at A again for the AAC types. Is there a setting I clicked in iTunes that I don't know about? I have all my "singles" organized by genre. I created genres like "single pop" and "single rock" so that I could reduce the amount of albums in the real genes that have albums. So in the "single pop" genre list my older imported MP3's start at a and go to Z then the newer purchaced AAC's start at A and go to Z.

Try setting them order by track in iTunes, and then re-sycning the Touch.
That' usually does it for me.
ALSO, make sure that shuffle is OFF.
Hit the album once while it's playing to get the scrubber on the screen.
To the left and right are two icons - one for shuffle, and one for repeat.
If they're white, they're off.
If they're blue, they're active and likely contributing to this issue...

Smart Folder sorted by event titles

I have two smart albums which have very similar criterias. The only difference is that one includes pictures from overseas whereas the other doesn't.
However, viewing the two smart albums is a different experience altogether. The Overseas Smart Album doesn't sort the pictures in any way, whereas the other one sorts it by event title.
Both smart albums have the same preference for 'viewing': 'Sort by' is 'date, and the 'Event titles' can't be selected.
I would really like to view the smart album sorted by event titles. How do I do it? Why can I do it for one but not for the other?
Help appreciated! I have already tried lots of different options!
Tks
Petra

Spotlight OR smart folder sorting question ...

Is there any way to sort Spotlight searches [after clicking "Show All"] OR smart folders, by something besides "Name", "Kind", or "Last Opened"? I clearly remember being able to sort by Size, Date Modified, etc in Tiger (OS X 10.4)... but for some reason all the ways I usually arrange folders are greyed out.
Any success with this?
-Rich

It's a really stupid design decision on the part of Apple, that's what it is. One of the very BEST things I rejoiced in when I switched from Windows to Mac was the very quick, simple, intuitive search capabilities. But now with Leopard, Apple have gone and crippled it. Really, really dumb. I hope they're going to fix it very soon.

Find row in Dataview using ID but Name sorted in alphabetical order

Hi,
I have a dataview with 2 columns, ID and Name, where it is sorted by"Name".
I want to find a row using the ID, namely curID. But the following doesn't seem to work, as I believe my dataview was sorted using the Name column. How can I sort the dataview with "Name", but be still be able to "Find" using its ID?
dv.Sort = "ID ASC"
rowIndex = dv.Find(curID)
Please advice. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Use a plain old for loop then. You could define your own method:
private static DataRowView FindRow(DataView dv, int id)
foreach (DataRowView rowView in dv)
if (Convert.ToInt32(rowView["ID"]) == id)
return rowView;
return null;
And call it like this:
DataRowView dataRowView = FindRow(dv, curID);
if(dataRowView != null)
//found...

Smart playlists are not in alphabetical order on iOS 5.1 devices

One of the most frustrating things for me about iTunes Match is the fact that the smart playlists in iTunes (version 10.6) do not sync in alphabetical order on my iPad/iPhone running iOS 5.1.
Even though I click on the Name column and the songs in iTunes appear in alphabetical order, the songs appear in a random order on the iPad. I spent hours trying to fix this by turning iTunes Match off on my iPad, turning it on etc all to no avail. I created new smart playlists thinking that maybe the original smart playlists were corrupted in some way by the upgrade to the latest version of iTunes. This did not work either.
Then, I had an idea. I created a new playlist (not a smart one), called it Test Alpha, copied the songs from the smart playlist into it and waited for my iPad to update.
Voila! The songs in this new, non-smart playlist are in alphabetical order.
I do hope that this problem is fixed. It is a pain to do this for the 15 odd smart playlist I have. Hope this helps someone else.

No. And the problem persists in iOS 6 with the latest version of iTunes.
For three weeks, I had been talking on and off with a techie in Singapore. She got me to run all these test, send screen shots etc..
In the end, I was told that the engineers said 'that is how it's supposed to be'. Well, thank you very much. No help at all. No further discussion about the issue ensued.
Apple's arrogance will soon be the cause of its share price collapsing. My solution? I have not renewed my subscription to iTunes Match.

Is it possible to rearrage saved passwords in alphabetical order?

I have a large number of saved passwords that i would like to sort into alphabetical order. At the moment, for example, at the top of the list are yourhealthportal.com.au b2c.csair.com and singpet.com.
n the Bookmarks menu it is possible to drag and drop items to a different position in the list. Can something like this be done with passwords?

Why is the Apple TV Gen 2 not showing my library in alphabetical order when shorting, It's ok in iTunes.

Hello All
With the newest Apple TV Gen 2 software up-date, My TV Shows are not sorting in alphabetical order.
They show up fine and sorted in iTunes.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
From the notes for the release:
iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
• Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
• Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
• Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
• Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

When I drag music from a folder that contains songs by different artists and then sort by date added it shows the songs in alphabetical order by artist?

When I drag a bunch of songs with different artists from a folder on my computer to the itunes library and sort by Date added it puts them into alphabetical order by artist. I am able to workaround this by using date modified. Why does itunes do this? This started happening in July. Prior to that never had this problem. Been adding my music the same way for almost a decade.

They are added in the same minute. I do not see the second area next to that if it should be. I'm guessing an update to a newer itunes build is responsible. It's a shame. I am using the sort by date modified. But now whenever I modify a file in Itunes it automatically moves it to the top of the list. I am trying to keep the newest stuff at the top of my itunes.
