Sort photo in iPad

Hi, my name is massimo.
My father bought an ipad.
Unfortunately he doesn't have a mac but,an (horrible) PC with Windows XP SP3.
I can't order the photos into ipad.
I tried some guides, but in spite of having changed the EXIF metadata inside each picture, nothing will change.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks and forgive my English

After downloading all kinds of things that didn't work & spending about a million hours arranging everything in an unsatisfactory way through iPhoto -
I FINALLY FIGURED THIS OUT!
I personally have lots of files inside sub-folders inside other sub-folders.
They all transferred perfectly with subfolders in tact. All my files are JPGs & please note that PDFs wont transfer.
You DO NOT need iPhoto.
You can import as many folders, sub-folders as you like directly from your computer via wi-fi.
Download an app called 'Photo-Sort' & plug your ipad into your computer via USB.
Open the app & click the little radar icon (third one in at the bottom of the ipad screen). A little window pops up to say FTP enabled. Leave it up & go to your main computer.
If you don't already have an FTP loader on your main computer - download one called 'CyberDuck' from CNET for free. That's what I used.
Open CyberDuck & click 'Open Connection'.
In the 'Server' field - type:
192.168.10.132
In the 'Port' field - type:
8080
Choose 'Anonymous' as your Username & then click 'Connect'.
Now - all you have to do is drag your folder(s) directly from your desktop into that CyberDuck window.
As they load - a second window pops up called 'Transfer' and you can see them uploading.
Once they're all loaded -
simply go back to your iPad & click 'Disable FTP Server'.
They will all show up on your ipad after you do that & It will work just like your folder structure on your regular computer. You can even rename / see the names of all your photos (which is something you can't do through the regular ipad Photo app).

Sort photos on ipad

Is there REALLY no way to sort photos on the current iPads (iOS 8.1)? It used to sort by file name and now it seems to do it by metadata dates... I want my images in a particular order for presentation and do not want to have to go through iPhoto...

I have a similar problem with my ipad4. I purchased this to be able to show photos in the order I want. I organise in albums, the photos
being in file name order within the album, all on my PC. Everything is ok UNTIL you edit a photo, which I do on my PC. It may be saved with the same filename but when synced via itunes the photo is placed at the end of the album. This makes the slideshow feature redundant as I cannot dictate the order.
When the photos app is first opened the scrolling of albums is not smooth.
If I view in photos view then the edited photos are under a different date so making this view impossible to navigate, as the edited photos
are no longer shown at the date they were originally taken. This means that the photo view of moments etc is not fit for purpose.
Whichever way I try to view my photos I apparently have no control, contrary to the much heralded advertising for Ios8.
It seems I purchased a very expensive device that originally worked well, but now is only fit for the rubbish bin.

How can I sort photos on iPads, I have several models and the order is different on every one.

We use iPads as photo albums. I have several model iPads and the photo order is different on Avery one. How do I get them to sort in the order I want, preferably alphabetically.

It's a lot easier to use 3rd party apps like Photo Manager Pro. You just tap "Edit" and drag the photos around.

Is there any way to sort photos on iPad

I have iPad 2 and use iCloud to put photos from iPhoto (Macbook Pro) to iPad which works wonderful!!! I would like to sort the photos by name if possible, but cannot find any way to do this. It seems tthat iCloud adds most of the new photos at the bottom of the iPad file, but sometimes, it inserts a photo in the middle of the file. I use the photos as reference for painting and would like some order to them. Any help would be appreciated.

It's easier to use 3rd party apps like Photo Manager Pro. You can drag the photos around like the way you do with apps.

Sort photos on iPad 3

I have all my photos sorted by title in iphoto, synced with ipad3 ios6 photos app, and photos appear to be sorted by date. any ideas?

I wish they were sorted by date on my iPad. There doesn't seem to be any way to rearrange photos in iPhoto or in the Photos app.

HowTo Sort Photos by Name on iPad (Windows 7, etc. - For Those Frustrated)

So I was very frustrated as I read manga, etc., sometimes in image file form, and the Photos feature on the iPad is perfect for it. Except, when I uploaded the photos in iTunes, they'd get all out of order, and as it stands, there is NO way I know of to sort them in iTunes or on the iPad directly - they are sorted by date taken, period, unless you have iPhoto, which I don't since I don't have a Mac (and there's no version for PC). On a sidenote, I hope Apple provides some photo sorting and more robust options in future updates as this seems to be a rather silly oversight.
Also, I did not come up with this fix on my own, but wanted to streamline it after a lot of trial and error and reading multiple posts on the forum which helped me figure this out. This is using Windows 7, but Vista and XP should be fairly similar. Here's how to get your Photos sorted correctly (It worked for me anyway, so hopefully my logic is right on this):
1.) First, have it set up to sync in iTunes, obviously, with your files in the proper folder (originals or copies - you'll be modifying some of the picture data, so a copy might be best if this data is important to you on the originals). Personally I made an iPad folder (to sync up) in my Pictures directory with image sets in subfolders under it (I believe the iPad can only read one subfolder down). You'll also want to sort the files by name as you want them to be sorted on the iPad.
2.) In the main iPad photo directory you've made, you should see another directory called "iPod Photo Cache" - delete this (it'll regenerate upon next sync with the new order).
3.) Get into your iPad sync folder and then into the subfolder with the individual files you want to sort. CTRL-A to Select All, then once selected, right click, select Properties, and then the Details tab.
4.) Click "Remove Properties and Personal Information" at the bottom. A new window should pop up. Click the radio button for "Remove the following properties from this file:" and then check the "Date taken" box. Alternatively, you can hit "Select All" if none of the information is important to you (what I did). Click "OK" to make that window disappear, then "OK" to close out Properties and accept the changes.
5.) Go back into iTunes, resync, and you should have properly sorted files now. Enjoy, and please let me know if this works for you!

Unfortunately it wasn't this straightforward for me! The above method seemed to work initially on some photo folders but then I found that it didn't on others. I've spent quite a few hours today investigating and experimenting. The iPad definitely sorts on the Windows file attribute "Date Taken" - the difficulty is changing this attribute using batch processing of several files at once. My EXIF metadata date fields are correct so I would like to be able to update the Date Taken file attribute from EXIF data for lots of photo files in one go. No-one seems to have written a program specifically for this task. I have tried various popular EXIF utilities and have only managed to do it with manual intervention on individual files which is too laborious for all my photos. It doesn't help that when you try and manually edit this Date Taken property for an individual file in Windows you can only change the date, not the time.
In my opinion, the real solution is for Apple to offer us a choice of the photo sort order in ITunes. My preference would be filename, perhaps with options to choose the Date Taken attribute, file timestamp or date modified filestamp (EXIF date fields as well is probably asking a bit too much!)

Photo-Sort app. for iPad won't let me open it after purchase!

Hello,
I just purchased the Photo-Sort app for iPad but when I click on the icon it does not open. It does a little strange blip and then nothing happens.
Anyone know how I can use this app and ix this problem?

I would delete it and redownload it. If you signed into the same iTunes account that originally purchased the any app you will not be charged again.

PE9 - sort photos by file name?

PE9 - how can I sort photos by file name so I can drag and drop into the timeline?

Date is all I want to sort by, so for me it is a better way than filename. Originally they were sorted by name on iOS devices (up to iOS 3.1.3), but Apple must have decided (possibly via feedback) that capture date was a better way. You can always try leaving feedback and maybe in the future there will be a choice : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
If you want to sort them in a different order then you can do so if you use a Mac and transfer the photos via iPhoto or Aperture. Otherwise you can either manipulate their capture dates prior to syncing so that they are in the order you want (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4221), or there are third-party apps in the iTunes App Store that apparently allow sorting e.g. Photo-Sort for iPad or Sort Shorts iPad Edition

How do I sort photos by filename. I have some 5000 photos involved in different albums

I have many albums each that need sorting by filename. Any advice?

Is this with iPhoto? Or on an iPad? If iPhoto, have you looked at the View Menu -> Sort Photos options?

IOS 7 iTunes 11.1.4 sort photos by name, not date

Hy, I'm running iOS 7.0.4 & iTunes 11.1.4.
I have a bunch of pics in folders that are incrementally named (001, 002 etc).
But when exporting them to my ipod touch, they are listed automatically by the date added.
How can I sort them by NAME and not by DATE on my ipod touch?

Sorting photos in slideshow in iPhoto 08

I created a slideshow for use in iDVD. But when I exported it to iDVD it reversed in order (the first photo is now a the end, etc). When I click "view" and "sort photos" none of the options such as "descending order" are allowed. I had already edited all 205 slides (Ken Burns effect, etc) so I hate to discard the slideshow and start over. Any ideas?

I think you posted in the wrong forum. You posted in the iPad forum.

Imported photos to ipad they are not looking the same

i had synced photos to ipad from PC(windows XP) using itunes on PC. After Syncing they are not looking similar they are looking like negatives of original images on PC..

I BELIEVE it orders them in date taken order, not name order.
You can look for a third party app that will allow you to choose/alter the sort order, or use a program to edit the properties of the photos to give them all the same date, which will then allow the iPad to default to name order. I found a free program that'll do that, but you may want to preserve the original dates on your photos so the other photos app might be yoru best bet. I'm not familiar with any but perhaps someone can recommend one to you.

Smart Folders to sort photos in my Photo Stream

Can I create Smart Folders on my iPad to sort photos in my Photo Stream?
On my iMac we use Smart Folders to sort our photos. We use Photo Stream to share photos from our iMac onto our iPad, and want to use Smart Folders.
Please help!!

Bad news I'm afraid. iCloud only keeps the last 30 days of photos. Your device will keep some old iCloud photos around - up to 1000 photos - but those ones aren't actually on iCloud any more. It's one of my pet hates about iCloud Photostream, and it has caused a lot of people to lose data. It's a very bad design decision on Apple's part.
There are file recovery programs that might be able to recover the deleted photos from your handset, but I can't remember the names of any right now. Stop using the phone completely until you can run a file recovery program to maximise the number of photos it can restore. Preferably, switch it off completely.

Suddenly I cannot get photos from iPad onto my Mac.

From the beginning, I simply connected the iPad2 to my Mac with the USB, and all photos were uploaded onto my Mac. I've followed all the directions to get updates for both Mac and iPad2. Now none of my new photos upload onto the Mac. Can you help?

I'm not sure how you were importing the photos on your Mac but the two ways that I know of are with iPhoto and Image Capture.
Open iPhoto and go to Preferences>General>Connecting Camera Opens - and you can select iPhoto or Image Capture.
Connect your iPad to your Mac and Open Image Capture. Click on devices and then at the bottom of the left side you can select - Connecting this iPad Opens - and choose the app of your choice from there. These are copied and pasted from Help in the two applications.
When you connect the iPad now, one of the chosen applications will open and let you import the images.
To import photos from iPad:
Connect your iPad to your computer using the Dock Connector to USB cable that came with your iPad.If iPhoto wasn’t already open, it opens for you (unless you changed this preference in iPhoto or your iPad is locked).After your iPad is connected and turned on, iPhoto opens in import view and your iPad appears in the Source list.
By default, iPhoto divides photos into separate Events during the import process.You can optionally enter a description in the Event Name field.If you don’t want iPhoto to automatically create events, deselect the Split Events checkbox at the bottom of the window.If you want to change the time frame used to sort your photos into Events, you can change it in iPhoto preferences.
If you don’t want to see photos that you’ve already imported into iPhoto, select the Hide Photos Already Imported checkbox at the bottom of the window.
Do one of the following:
To import all the photos shown in the iPhoto window, click Import All.
To import a selection of photos, press the Command key while clicking photo thumbnails, or drag to select a group of photos, and then click Import Selected.
To cancel photo transfer at any time during your import, click Stop Import. Then, in the dialog that appears, choose to continue importing the photos, keep the photos that have been imported and stop importing the remaining photos, or delete the photos that have been imported.
After the import process is finished, drag the device icon to the iPhoto Trash, and then disconnect your iPad from your computer by unplugging the Dock Connector to USB cable.Important: Before you disconnect your iPad, wait until all photos have been imported into iPhoto (or until you click Stop Import).
This is from Image Capture. I'm assuming you used Image Capture.
Transferring items automatically
You can automatically transfer items from your camera to your computer whenever you connect the camera to your computer.
To transfer items whenever you connect your camera:
Connect your camera to your computer, and turn the camera on.
Select the camera in the Devices list at the left of the Image Capture window.
From the “Connecting this [device] opens” pop-up menu, choose AutoImporter.If you don’t see that pop-up menu, click the “Show device settings” button in the lower-left corner.
The next time you connect your camera, Image Capture transfers images from the camera to the AutoImporter folder in your Pictures folder (in your home folder).

Want to get rid of photo on iPad but have no garbage to dump it, came from my laptop, now I want to know how to desync my photo, which computer to I use, which itune do I use?

Want to download the itune so I may desync my photos.
Last year I synced the photos from my laptop to my iPad, now I want them GONE. Which itune do I use? There are too many for me to know the right one.
I read that I go to the right of my screen then I click on library, then click on photo. Guess what, I have nothing of that sort on my screen.
Please help.
