Sorting Contacts on iPod by Company

Hi, my father and I own a business and i'm giving him my iPod. He has a Windows PC and uses Outlook and likes the idea of having an all-in-one gadget for music and contacts, but we've hit a problem along the way. How do I sort the contacts by company, instead of a First/Last name basis?
Thanks,
Mark.
Mac Mini 1.25 512MB RAM Mac OS X (10.3.9) Ipod 4G B&W 20Gig

I'd also like to be able to sort contacts by Business->User (like iTunes does with albums->songs).
Address Book also needs some kind of "Business"-merging of all people inside a single business (so we don't have to repeat all information such as fax, URL, address, etc).

Sorting contacts on iphone by company rather than individual names

has anyone seen an application that will sort the contacts by company name rather than the individual names?

You can't sort your contacts by anything but name directly on the phone, but a little work on the computer can give a result that might work. I create groups in my contact manager that syncs to the iPhone. I can put people from different businesses in different groups. That way I can choose a specific group to look through, rather than all the contacts. It also works to separate out family and friends, etc. But you can't create the groups on the phone, only on the computer, and then sync them to the phone.

Sort contacts by company in the address book dialog

Hi all,
When I create a new email, I click "to" to select the recipient. In the dialog box, I select my own address book (not the Exchange one), but I am not able to sort contacts by company. I only have display name and email columns. Right click does
not works.
I red this was not possible, but it seems weird that I can sort by company in the Exchange address book and not in my own AB.
Regards,
Seb.

Hi,
I can confirm that we cannot sort contacts by company in our own Address Books. As a workaround, we may use
Advanced Find beside the address book to find the people from a specific company.
Although Outlook is now a quite powerful tool, it is still not perfect. Outlook considers users' feeling very important and may make the change to make itself a more powerful and easy-to-use product.

Sort contacts by company

I just bough the new Iphone 4. Can you sort contacts by company rather than name?

In iOS 4 and 5 you could do it by creating the company name first, saving it and then going back to add the first and last name. In iOS 7 it is not possible to sort by company name no matter what you do.

N97 How to sort contacts by company name

Is it possible to sort contacts by company name rather than first name,last name etc?

This is a HUGE shortcoming of Nokia's contacts app, which is still the most awkward and "old style numeric keypad telephone" oriented applications in the Nokia software suite on smartphones.
It's the only reason why I am still sometimes missing my Blackberry. There you find everything so quickly, and not only just typing in the individual's name, nor having to use that Nokia general search tool.
But now that Nokia FINALLY introduced a year ago "finding names typing", without launching the contacts application first I still have the hope that Nokia will release one day a REALLY user friendly, fast and flexible fully integrated agenda suite...

Workaround - Sort Contacts by Company

Until Apple provides an update to allow sorting contacts by company, I found a short workaround.
Simply create a new contact, entering ONLY the company name. Save completely out of it (tapping "Save" twice.) Go back into the contact, tap Edit, and enter any other information you would as usual.
The contact will then forever sort by company, not by name.
Cactus!

Another way to do this is after syncing. Your new addresses should sync with Address Book. Just go into Address Book, edit the contact and mark the check box that says Company.
I can't say that I do this every time I sync, but I just go down the list while I have a second or am sitting on hold waiting for somebody.

Sorting Contacts by company

Is there a way to view contacts by company. What I am trying to do is group multiple contacts by their company. I have chosen to view by "company, last name" but I would like to be able to search the company name to find the contact I seek.
Thanks in advance.

Use the Search tool. It's the magnifying glass on the keyboard.
Of course, in my case on my Treo 680, when I do that, the searching of the Contacts database doesn't even happen till AFTER the first screen is filled and it has searched
SheetToGo
Documents To Go
Word To Go
Pics&Videos
any Mobile DB databases (5 of them on that first screen)
Then I need to select "Find More," and it searches one more Mobile DB database, then finally gets to the Contacts database.
So, I finally see the contact that I want on the second screen -- only because I don't have a lot of contacts with that particular company name that I searched.
I select the contact. But, it then shows me the full view of the contact record, not the Contacts database list view. So, I have to choose "Done."
Then I can finally move the cursor down to the proper phone number to tell the Treo 680 dial it.
Not exactly convenient nor fast.
I believe this has changed from the way the Palm OS use to work. I think that if you wanted to find "Legacy Mortgage Company" with the older OS's that you could just type "Leg..." and be there. That was MUCH better. That is also the way it will still work on the Palm Desktop.
So, if you want it to go to Legacy Mortgage when you type "Leg..." you can move the contact name into another field, like making a first line of the "Title" field, and making the second line be the real title. But then, the contact name doesn't appear in the Contacts database list view at all. If you have ANY situation on your Palm where there are several contacts at the same company, that is not a good workaround, I don't think.
To make this situation all the worse and sillier that it works like this, the Palm Desktop works just the opposite. If you have a contact at Legacy Mortgage, you just type "Leg..." there and it takes you right to the record.
You would think Palm could at least be consistent.
If you sort by Company, Last Name, typing the first few letters of the company's name should take you too it, even it you do happen to have a name in the Last Name or First Name fields.
Why the hell did they change this? I've got 800+ contacts that I'll have check to see if I need to massage them around and change the fields where the name or company information is.
I was searching for ideas to this delima when I happened upon this thread. I'll keep looking to see if there are any real answers on the forum.
If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is probably not for you.

That is not a sorting option in the built in app. There are other apps in the App Store that can access your contact information. Perhaps there is one that will let you do that.

Sorting podcast on iPod by release date

I have been googling solution for this problem but none of the solution that people suggesting really works. So the problem is I can sort podcasts by release date in iTunes but on my iPod I cannot. iPod automatically sorts all the episodes by name which is not what I want. I need a chronical order.
Is there any way to sort podcasts by release dates on iPod touch?
Thanks,

I'd also like to be able to sort contacts by Business->User (like iTunes does with albums->songs).

How do I add a contact from the same company to my address book?

How do I add a contact from the same company to my address book? I do not want to re-type all of the information. Thanks for your help.

Any card in your address book can be duplicated. Select the card within the Name column, and use the Edit > Copy menu item followed by the Edit > Paste menu item. Then you can update the card copy and only change the name/email/phone fields as needed.
