Sorting app icons when grouped?

As I don't like pages of app icons I've put the ones I don't need into a single group (like the apps page on most android phones), trouble is they just go in in the order you put them in and I want them in alphabetical order...is there an easy way to do this?

Try an alternate launcher.  The stock launcher on most of Lenovo's tablets (you don't say which one you have) is terrible.  I like Apex Launcher on my Yoga 10, but there's lots of launchers on the Play Store.

  • Hide app icons when switch desktop 2, 3

    My dock is very empty, only have running applications there.
    I am using 3 spaces - desktop 1. home desktop 2. study and desktop 3. work.
    At work I might have Outlook for Mac running on desktop 3. When I return home to desktop 1, I might have QuickTime, PhotoShop and Safari open. All of these applications are open, but I just want to see the relevant application icons being used on that desktop.
    How can I hide the application icons when I switch between desktops.
    Thank you Apple Community!

    The answer is NO. But, I wonder if things have changed since 2007?
    Please add your comments, what do you think?

    In the Elements Organizer 13
    The key to all this is to click on/select/highlight the Album that you have created in Local Albums.
    Then make sure that the Sort By: (in the row below the highlighted "Media" header is set for Album Order.
    You should see a number at the top left of each of thumbnails.
    Then, click on the thumbnail that you want to move, hold down the click, and drag the thumbnail to the wanted new location
    in the line up of thumbnails.
    Often I had to press down hard on the drag.
    Please let us know if that worked for you.
    Also, in Edit Menu/Preferences/Keyword Tags and Albums/Enable Manual Sorting Options, I set all for manual.

    On an iPhone 5, Is there an easy way to move app icons as a group? instead of one by one?

    If you have a bunch of apps on one screen yunwantnto move to another as a group, create a folder by holding your finger on ne app until all the icons start shaking and show and "x" in the top left corner of the icon. Press again and don't lift your finger; move that icon with your finger over one of the other icons you want to add to the folder, which will create a folder. Then you can move the other apps you want to move into that folder. When you have all the apps you want to move into that folder, close the folder by tapping on the screen outside the folder. The icons should still be shaking. Then press on the folder you want to move and slide it to the edge of the screen, left or right, until the folder moves to the next screen. Once you get it to the screen of choice, you can leave the apps in that folder or move them out by the same process. When you are done moving things around, press the Home button and the icons will stop shaking. Now they will stay put.
    Alternatively,my can sync your device with iTunes and move the icons around in the Apps windows in iTunes, then re-sync your device after you're finished. That will rearrange your icons on the device.
    Good luck!

  • TS3276 An email sent from my iMac has a button linked to a clip hosted on Vimeo. When received, the link functions on iMac and iPad, but opens a window of app icons on iPhone and iPod touch. Any ideas what's wrong?

    For anyone else reading this thread, it is worth knowing that sometimes an email is, or can be, corrupted thereby jamming the works. The solution above is good, but I just wanted to suggest another one.
    If the problem arises, go to an online mail access service, such as Mail2Web.com and login to you mail account there and delete the offending message.
    Problem solved.
    And George, as this is all entirely voluntary, whinging about no takers may not endear people to you. Besides which, a few minutes of searching on Google would have found you a number of solutions.

    I downloaded AirPlayIt yesterday from the app store.  It was on my iPad yesterday.  Today, however, the app icon does not appear on my home screen.  When I go into apps it is there but it doesn't have an "Open" choice.  There is only a cloud with an arrow pointing down.  When I click on the app it pops up but there is no open button.  How can I remove it?  Tapping it won't work as it isn't on my home screen.

    You'll have to contact the developer about this. Apple doesn't make this app;

    Hey linfrommi,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are having trouble locating some application after the update to iOS 7. To troubleshoot this issue, let’s reset the home screen layout of your iPhone, which should move all of your applications to the second “page”:

  • I did a restore on my Imac and now it says You can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto.So when I go to apps icon they want to charge me 14.99 for new Iphoto

    I did a restore on my Imac and now it says You can’t open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto.So when I go to apps icon they want to charge me 14.99 for new Iphoto

    It would help if you would answer questions and give information rather then constantlhy complaining
    You do not need to purchase anything - but to help you you do have to supply the requested information
    Have you installed iPhoto from the DVD that came with the computer or from the App Store?
    The answer to this is critical to helping you  --  please answer
    WE probably also need to know exactly how you "restored" your Mac and why youneeded to restore it

  • My instagram app icon on my iphone 4 is missing. When I go to the app store and try to reinstall it, it says open. When i search for it on my phone it can't find it? What should I do?

    My instagram app icon on my iphone 4 is missing. When I go to the app store and try to reinstall it, it says open. When I search for it on my phone it can't find it? What should I do?

    Make sure your phone is connected to the computer and iTunes is open
    1. Visit Instagram.com from your computer web browser
    2. Click "Download in the app store"
    3. It will download and show up in your iTunes
    4. Highlight and sync the app to your iPhone (note: it will not show up on your phone, even after it says syncing is complete).
    5. In iTunes, select the Instagram icon and click "Remove" or "Uninstall"
    6. Click Accept and Uninstall when it asks you to confirm as it will remove instagram and its data from your iPhone
    7. Disconnect the phone from the computer
    8. Manually reboot the phone after exiting all apps
    9. Upon re-start, you will be able to access the app in the App Store, and install it

  • How do I sort by employee last name when grouped by employee id?

    Hi,
    The first Group is: Employee ID.
    The second Group is: Employee Last Name.
    I wish to sort the entire report by Employee Last Name; however, standard crystal reports sorting functionality doesn't present me with this ability. As a result, the report is sorted by Employee ID.
    Can someone help me how to sort by Employee Last Name in this scenario?
    thx,
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    When you create a Group in the report, Crystal reports automatically adds the grouped fields in the Sort list which unfortunately cannot be removed! You cannot change the priority of the sort fields too, and the only way of achieving this is by actually changing the group order. But it wouldn't help the purpose.
    As a workaround, here's what you can do though:
    1) Create a command object and provide a pre-sorted result set to Crystal Reports. In this situation you would probably create a command object like :
    select Emp_ID, Last_Name from Emp order by Last_Name asc
    2) Create the 2 groups in the report again. Open the 'Group Expert', click on the first group and then click 'Options'
    3) The Sort order for this group would be 'in ascending order' by default. Change it to 'in original order'
    4) Repeat the above step for the next group
    This is the only way I know of sorting a report on another field.
    Let me know how this goes!
