Sort order changes when copying found items

When I search for items in a library, they show up in the "show search results" window in the right order. But when I copy them to Pages, the sort order is changed. Any idea how to get them to copy in the correct order?

If you have other thoughts, I'd appreciate knowing about them, otherwise, thanks for the suggestion.
If I look in iCal, I can see nowhere to override the system level setting for the locale which is in System Preferences > International. Rightly or wrongly, I would conclude that iCal takes its locale from the International control panel.
Apple Pages does have an independent user interface for overriding the system level setting of the locale. This interface is in the Text Inspector > Language. But I am not aware that anyone has developed technical documentation for how this interface behaves.
The expected behaviour would be that if for a selected character string the user changes the language identifier from the system and document default to some other language identifier, then the sort order for that selected character string changes.
I discussed with Thomas Gewecke whether the user interface for language identification might not be made more explicit per standards. Not all 23 writing systems and 3 world scripts of the EU are included in the interface for language identification, but Deutsch is.
Try to tinker a bit with the controls in the International panel and the controls in the Text Inspector to see if you can find a setting that works. Whether software behaves as standards and specifications entitle one to expect is often a matter of trial and error.

  • Image Sort order changes when doing an editing in PS or Portraiture.

    LR 5.7  OSX 10.9. Sometimes when doing an edit in PS and/or Portraiture the tiff and the raw file move to the end of the Loupe view. The first 15 images I worked on today stayed in the order they were shot, by file name,with the tiff and raw file next to each other.  then for some reason the 16th one moved to the end of the Loupe view image lineup when the edit in was selected and the tiff file was created. How do I change the sort order back to file name or make this stop happening altogether.

    V, thanks for the reply.  I did know that but the problem was that even though the new version was created it did not open in CS4. This left the version locked in the Organiser with know way of closing it.
    However, a re-boot of the machine seems to have cured this.

  • Sort order changes when adding a phonetic last name?

    I have my contacts sorted and displayed by first name. If I add a phonetic last name to a contact, it changes the order of that person to the top of list. Why wouldn't it leave them in the first name alphabetic order?

    Ok this is what I'm doing...
    My last name is spelled with "liter."
    Siri pronounces that like "a 2 liter of soda."
    So I've added the phonetic last name field on the contact card to help her pronounce it like "lighter."
    On my contact info,
    First name: Bill
    Last name: Hinderliter
    Phonetic last name: Hinderlighter
    If I delete the phonetic last name field... It sorts the contact perfectly.
    If I add it, the contact is placed on top of all the "B's" in the list.
    On a side note... I found another website with a temporary fix to this problem. The person there says to use the nickname field instead of phonetic field when getting Siri to pronounce things.

  • Track order changed when copying playlist to memory stick!

    Help!! Everytime I try to copy a playlist to a memory stick by highlighting and dragging the track order gets completely jumbled and it's driving me nuts!!! How do I prevent this from happening??!! Thank you for any responses to this question!

    You cannot.
    The playlist is sorted on any column in iTunes or by simply dragging the songs up/down as you want.
    When you view the songs on the memory stick in Windows Exploder, it sorts by the column you are sorting on (filename is default).
    You would need to add a track number of the playlist order to the filename to keep them in order.

  • IPhoto sort order changes on iPad/iPhone when photos are edited

    I have been having issues getting photos to display in the correct order on my iPad, iPhone and Apple TV. When I go into an event I want the first photo taken to be at the top and the last at the bottom. I sort by date so that photos taken on different cameras at the same event appear in chronological order and this works very well in iPhoto on my Mac. There is a problem when I sync to my devices though. Sometimes the order on my devices is the same as in iPhoto on my Mac and other times it is not. A recent software update seems to have cured the major issue, but created another. After some experimentation I have discovered that editing a photo changes its position in the sort, even if the adjustment has nothing to do with the date.
    I picked a sample event and adjusted the contrast of the first photo. There was no change to sort order on the Mac. I hit sync in iTunes and the photo now displays last on my iPhone. Go back into iPhoto, click on "Revert to Original", sync iTunes again and the photo now displays first again. Seems like a bug to me.

    I also have have the same issue and have been on the phone with Apple Care....not much help I'm afraid although I do believe something is broken and requires a fix. Here is what I have found (all software up to date and latest OS BTW)....I have sorted all my pictures by Date, if I want to add a straggler I just alter the original date and all is well within the event.  I then "batch change" the event to the tile and event name. So the pictures in the event are named " Holiday 2012  1-xxx.  Again, all is well in iPhoto but when sent to an iPad or Apple TV the sort is as siwilson mentioned above.  I just discovered a temp work around for events with less than 1000 pictures, if I sort by Title I can get them to show correctly on the ATV and iPad. Now what was/is interesting is somethimes they would sort correct and sometimes not.  It turns out that if you sort the event by Title and quit iPhoto and reopen it....it has reverted back to sort by Date. It does that everytime. So what I do is turn home sharing off in iTunes (forces it to look at the photos again), open an iPhoto event and sort by Title.  Then I turn home sharing on in iTunes (leaving iPhoto open) and sync my iPad.  If I want ot stream photos to my ATV I must leave iPhoto open so the sort remains as I set it. If I want to retain the correct sort this is what I need to do each time. So this is a bandage for me until they fix things.  One final about pictures over 1000.....it sorts them as mentioned above with another twist, numbering goes 0001, 1000, 1001, 1002 etc.  @#$% why can't they just sort the way iPhoto presents them?

  • Sort order switches when changing from List to Thumbnail View

    I can't seem to get the Thumbnail view to "lock" to the same sort order as the list view.  I arrange by file name (or ingest date, or reverse media duration, or any of the other sortable metadata fields) in list view, but then when I click to the thumbnail view, the order seems to arbitrariliy change to some sort of preset.  What's worse, it appears to be changing to something that's in a jumbled order. 
    This isn't a big deal if I only have 10 clips.  If I have 100, or 1,000 clips though, they have to be in a sortable order for the thumbnail view to be of any use.
    Thanks,
    Eli

    Hi,
    Thanks for your post. Our current design doesn't support keeping order between list view and icon view. It would be good if you can drop that as a feature request / bug into the the forum.

  • PURCHASE ORDER STATUS :When Deleting ALL ITEMS.

    Hi experts,
    I need  to make purchase order status stay  " Release Compleated " when deleting all items.
    Anyone Know How to do it?
    Or anyone Know how to use BAPI_PO_CHANGE in BAdI : ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST 
    In my project , I use Release Strategy of purchase orders, and there is a case of deleting all items.
    In this situation, purchase order status returns to "Active " and release strategy tab disappears.
    This is our problem.
    I need to make purchase order status stay  " Release Compleated " and prevent  release strategy tab disappearing.
    I tried to update the fields EREKZ(final invoice) and ELIKZ(delivery completed) in
    BAdI : ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST  Method : PROCESS_ITEM using BAPI_PO_CHANGE according to SAP Note 456691.
    But BAPI_PO_CHANGE couldn't update EREKZ because of our customize , and I couldn't find how to use
    BAPI_PO_CHANGE in the BAdI.
    Anyone know solutions to solve this problem?
    Thanks a lot.
    Regards,
    TKD

    Hi,
    please review the following information in SAP Note No. 456691 as
    copied below:
    18. Question:
    When are the header conditions updated if a purchase order item is
    deleted?
    Answer:
    If a purchase order item is deleted, the item is marked as 'statistical'
    (field EKPO-STAPO = X) and the change is reflected in the header
    conditions.
    However, if for the item the final invoice indicator(EKPO-EREKZ) or the
    inward delivery completed indicator (EKPO-ELIKZ) is set, the item is not
    marked as 'statistical' (EKPO-STAPO is not set) and thus the header
    conditions are not updated.
    I hope this helps you

  • "Date Added" sort order problem when importing folders

    I sort by "Date Added" to view my iTunes library, and use the middle "view" button to view tracks grouped as albums with artwork. This works mighty well except when I'm importing folders containing the files in an album, such as those I get from eMusic--the tracks are displayed out of order when I do this. The only solution I've found so far is to import one track at a time. Any ideas how I can get those tracks in there in the right order when importing a folder? Any scripts hanging around that will do it right? Thanks to all....

    What sort order do you have selecting in the sort drop-down?  There is no "correct" sort order.  You can sort on any metadata you can show in the Browser.  The sort drop-down is located in the top border of the Browser, near the left corner.  Every container in Aperture retains the sort order it last had.  When you manually move an Image in the Browser, the sort order is changed to "Manual".

  • Sort order changes from ios photos to iphoto

  • Font changes when copy and paste url (Safari to Mail)

    When copy from iphone 5 (vs 7.1.2-& no I don't want to update yet ) Safari, a URL/web address and paste into MAIL app, the font changes and won't paste in the same format as the email I've been typing. Is there any way to correct this? Also, anything I type after the paste keeps that same "other" format, when I want what I had started email in to stay the same.
    I tho't I"d look at some settings and under iphone Accessibiilty I have Larger Text ON and Bold Text chosen, and Reduce Motion ON. Under GENERAL and TEXT SIZE I have it set to 4th choice up. I don't see any MAIL settings re FONT. Would any of these be the cause?

    OK, I think I found another way to describe my issue:
    When I copy text from a webpage in Safari, some form of "meta-information", or formatting data, is kept, and when I paste into MS Word, the formatting from the webpage is retained. In my default setup of Firefox, this formatting meta-information is not retained, it only copies the plain-text.
    So my question is actualy: How do I prevent Safari from retaining formatting data, and only copy the plain-text?
    I have been testing some clipboard managers, and have yet to find one that will auto-filter out formatting data from text that I copy, but they can after interaction.
    The other, current, method I have been using is to:
    1. select and copy the text in Safari
    2. paste text into notepad
    3. select and copy text from notepad
    4. paste de-formatted text into MS Word
    Or in Firefox:
    1. select and copy the text in Firefox
    2. paste text into MS Word (no formatting retained)

  • Sort Order Changes Unexpectedly in iPhoto Gallery

    I frequently add new images to some of my iPhoto galleries, then publish to MobileMe. When I rearrange the images in a particular gallery, the sort order sometimes changes spontaneously. Once this occurs, I have to manually restore everything to its proper place. Needless to say, this is very irritating. Does anyone know why this happens and how to fix it?
    Thanks!

    Hello Alan,
    If I understand you correctly the images will spontaneously change their order both online at me.com and in the MobileMe WebGallery within iPhoto. You may have a broken Album within iPhoto.
    Try making a new MobileMe Gallery and add 50 pictures (make a few of them in an order that is distinct so you can tell if/when they move). Publish the Gallery and check the order. If its ok, add another few pictures and then check again.
    Ultimately if the issue does not happen with the new album then you may want to delete the other album and re-create it (you could try rebuilding your iPhoto Library as well. See the link below).
    If the issue happens with the new album as well follow http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638 to rebuild your Library. I would try using the "Rebuild iPhoto Library database..." option.
    Also if you are not already I would suggest making regular backups of your computer. With Time Machine you could restore back to before this re-arranging occurs should it happen again http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553.
    Hope that helps.

  • CF9 Scheduled Tasks Sort order changed; how to fix it?

    I just notice in my CF9 administrator under "Scheduled Tasks", the tasks now display Alphabetically IN GROUPS BY FREQUENCY rather than the straight alpha by Task Name.  Is this a new "feature" of CF9 and how can I change it back to "normal" sort by Task Name?  We have lots of scheduled tasks and it's really more convenient to see them the old way.  I haven't found any obvious place where I can change the sort order.  Any help is appreciated.

    You could experiment with changing /CFIDE/administrator/scheduler/scheduletasks.cfm to be the one CF8 uses instead.  I dunno if it would work, but it should.
    Or you could write your own CFAdmin extension to display them however you like.
    I don't know there's an "official" way to revert to the old view.
    I'm not sure why they bothered changing this.  I think they could have better spent said time on something else... like providing a proper API for managing the tasks, without needing to rely on using the service factory.

  • Photo order changes when burn CD

    I created iPhoto album in a certain order. When I burn CD the order changes, seemingly randomly. The order of the show is important. How do I prevent this? Thank you, MP

    The order is probably alpha-numeric, based on the File Name of the photos. iPhoto allows you to change the photo's title, but to change the file name you must export a copy outside of iPhoto.
    Select your album. Then export to a desktop folder, with "use album name" checked. If your album is named "Winter" then the photos will be names "Winter 01," "Winter 02," etc. Your order should be preserved.
    If your photo titles are important, you could pad the beginning of each title with a numeral. Then export with "use title" checked, and the file name will become the photo's title.
