Unable to sort by filename in PSE11 Organizer

I notice that in PSE11 Organiser, it is not possible to sort images by "filename". As this is such a fundamental feature in any file manager, I assume that this must be an oversight and not intentional. Does Adobe have any plans to issue an update to address this problem in the very near future?
Thanks
(Otherwise, very happy with PSE 11.)

As a matter of fact, alphabetical sort is never useful if you generally ignore the folder view and use the normal thumbnail view and tags and categories. If you don't rename your files (like most users), alphabetical and date order are the same. I can imagine why that has not been considered important by Adobe when they changed the old buggy folder view.
What they have most probably overlooked is that many users rely on folder view and that some rename all their pictures, especially those scanning many pictures.
So there has been already a number of posts about that problem and Adobe must be now aware of the problem.
I have already reported that and suggested that they create an option for alphabetical sort in albums, for captions as well as filename. That does not seem a big deal to implement for the next version. I believe that such a sort in the normal folder view (not in albums) would be trickier to implement without risking new bugs.

Windows User: Frist time trying to use itunes. Unable to sort by filename.

I'm having a lot of issues getting used to using I tunes. The ipod touch is my first apple product. I've always used windows devices until now. The main issue i'm having is itunes doesn't have an option to sort by filename. So when i'm adding all my audio books to itunes the don't play in the correct order.
For example the book i just got was on 12 cd's each cd has around 24 tracks. With my windows device i drag and drop them from my computer and browse to the folder on the device and i'm playing the audio book.
This ipod is playing track one from each disk and then track 2 from each disk.
Is there a fix for this? Its the most annoying issue i've ever ran into. I've downloaded a program that will rename all the files at the same time. So I renamed this files 1 - 284 but in itunes its still showing the same tracks names.
This is really getting me frustrated because the only way i can see to fix it is to change the track name of each file.
I'm surprised these ipods have been out this long and are still having issues like this. It makes me think its a bug that has already been looked into and will not be fixed. if thats the case is there a workaround?
Anyway I can select all the files and make them into apply audio books? Not really show out to fix this.
Thanks for the help.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Under Network Adapter -> Advanced Features. I read there
Enable MAC Address Spoofing (not checked)
Enable DHCP Guard (not checked)
Enable router advertisement guard (not checked)
At all VM states (install, copy, clone, export, import) I never touched the advanced network settings. Only the necessary changes to have networking up (aka attach to the correct, working network switch).
Also made some extra tests involving attaching / detaching a legacy network adapter (just in case) and checking the MAC Addresses on all VM's (active / inactive).
Did not figured out a MAC Address issue, all VM's had got their MAC from the pool and were different. Also the MAC address pool between 2 Hyper-V Servers was different (as expected since they have different "real" IP addressee but you never know)

Why am I unable to sort the music on my iPhone 4S when viewing it in iTunes?

Hello,
Apologies if this has been answered already; I searched for it but none of the results appeared relevent to my issue.
I have an ipod touch 4th generation, which I manually manage from the the iTunes library on my home PC (Windows 7, 32bit). I am able to plug the ipod touch into my work laptop, to listen to the music on it through iTunes. I can see the list of songs on my ipod via the 'Music' tab of the 'Devices' section in iTunes. In that view, I am also able to sort the list as I see fit, by clicking on the various column headings to change the order of that column appropriately.
I have recently purchased an iPhone 4S, and loaded it with music from my own computer's iTunes library in the same way I did for my ipod. However, when viewing the songs on my 4S on my work laptop in the same way as above, I am unable to sort the view at all. Why is this?
It's annoying not being able to sort the songs in an order different to how they were sorted on the parent machine. For example, if I'm looking in my song list for a song I added recently, I was able to find them on my ipod by simply ordering the list by Date Added or Date Modified, but there seems to be no way of doing this for the 4S?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your message.
I have downloaded the latest iTunes [11.1.5 (5)] with no luck, unfortunately. As it did with 11.1.4 (62), iTunes recognizes my iPhone, I can select the music to sync, click sync, it appears to sync but remains completely unchanged in my iPhone music.
Any tips are welcome!

N95 and image gallery sorting by filename, not by ...

Hello!
In N95, the default sorting of images (and photos) is by date-time. This is stupid and useless, because:
- I edit some of my taken photos, so they have different datetime stamps than originals
- I always manualy define the order of photos by putting numbered prefixes in filenames.
The gallery on N95 should be able to sort by filename. I cannot find a "sort by" option. Is there any?
Or did Nokia forget to add such an important option?
Thanks,
Smargroth

So it seems that the only solution is to "touch" files (modify timestamp); in groups, so I can simulate "albums" (all files in one group get the same timestamp). Then the files are sorted by filename.
But this is possible only using microSD card, connected through "Data transfer mode" to PC.
I don't know who programmed this gallery application, but it is really some of the worst programs which I saw. Didn't they ask any user what we want? Yesterday I tried to copy a lot of my journey photos (around 4000) to memory card and what then? Each time when I opened the gallery, photos was processed around 2 minutes before displaying!!! I hate this application. Why does it need to count the photos? And, if it really needs the total number of photos, it can store the number or make some database, which is refreshed on demand, like music list.
And, I don't find any option, to hide some folders from displaying. For example, I have some photos for contacts, and I don't want them to be displayed in gallery. Is this possible?
Because, in my opinion, this gallery application is so bad and useless, I wonder, if there is some (3rd party) gallery application, which works like ACDSee or Irfan or any other normal program?
Thanks,
Sergej

Unable to sort profit center as ascending & Decending order in KE80 & KE30

Hi,
When viewing KE30/KE80 reports and navigating by a field such as profit centre, appear to be unable to sort in ascending/descending order.
e.g. run a KE80 Report: i.e. ZPC-9000 & i.e. variant SMKT, and execute the report click on "Profit Center" under the navigation line to navigate it out to the right. Then click on the magnify glass next to the PC number (should bring up the list of all available PCs, 1259 entries found).
From this pop-up box, unable to sort the PCs by ascending/descending order regardless of what you click.Also unable to sort the Long Text by ascending/descending order regardless of what you click
Can anyone pls help on the above issue.We have to apply any note for this???.
Thanks & Regards
Mani

Dear Mani,
you can sort the entries by right-clicking on the column header and chosing the sorting order in the appearing menu.
Cheers,

IOS5 Has Restored Photo Sorting by Filename?

In my testing (both Jpeg and Png formats), it 'appears' that Apple has restored sorting images by filename in iOS5. If true, that means that the nightmare of altering EXIF dates to achieve user controlled sort sequencing for images on iPhone and iPad is finally over and done with. I have more testing to do, but based on what I've seen so far.......Bravo Apple!!!!!
There is one image sorting bug I have found in iOS5. If new images are moved into a folder in groups greater than about 200 images, the indexing goes crazy and the sort sequence appears random or somehow interleaved. I have not yet found the exact failure point but moving 125 images works okay, but moving 224 images fails.
Finally, why no image sorting options Apple? Although Pro photographers control image sorting by filename (compliant with DAM standards), a lot of folks in this Forum seem to like date sequencing. Since virtually all photo software offers sorting options, I think iOSx should too.

Confirmed. The sort order for photos has been restored to standard alphanumeric filename sequencing. The iOS4 requirement that EXIF dates be altered to control the sort order of photos has finally been eliminated.

Why is mavericks now unable to sort by label , vital to me

the new software has totaly lost the ability to work with large blocks of file and colour codeing, unable to sort or find by label

View > Arrange By > Tags
aka Ctrl-Cmd-7
No column header clicking, but it works.

PSE11 Organizer - Not Responding

I have a Windows 8.1 laptop with 8GB memory, 1TB Hard Drive, and Intel Core i5. When running PSE11 Organizer the organizer will hang up and I receive a message "Not Responding". Then the Organizer closes and I have to reload everything. Is there a setting I'm missing? Also I heard that the resolution of my monitor could be a problem. Is that possible?
Thanks for any input. I really enjoy my PSE11 but this is making me crazy!!

Try changing the settings in prefs by going to:
Edit >> Preferences >> Media Analysis
Uncheck all the boxes for people recognition and for the auto-analyzer. That often improves performance. You can re-start them at any time e.g. when you are away from your computer or niot editing photos.

Finder unable to sort file name in Column mode

Hi Guys,
About 2 weeks ago suddenly Finder are unable to sort files in alphabetical order in Column mode.
About the same time when my external HDD died (don't know whether this has any effect).
Sorting by name works fine in icon only mode, but whenever I switch to Column mode its completely disorganized.
And when I tried in coverflow mode its alphabetical but in inverted mode (Z to A).
I tried verifying disk permission and repairing it to no effect.
Any clues on how to fix this?
Thanks,
Jeff

Need filename of main Organizer database -PSE13 on a mac

need filename of main Organizer database -PSE13 on a mac

galsal5 a écrit:
need filename of main Organizer database -PSE13 on a mac
Valid for both Mac and Win:
- the catalog location is to be found from the menu Help/System Info.
- the catalog is the whole folder, not a single file
- the main database is called 'catalog.pse13db'. It's a sqlite database engine. The second sqlite database is the thumbnail cache : thumb.5.cache.

Sorting By FileName

The endless dilemma.
If I have 20 images named 1.jpg, 2.jpg up to 20.jpg and I import them into Lightroom and sort by filename, it sorts them alphanumerically:
1.jpg
11.jpg
12.jpg...
19.jpg
2.jpg
21.jpg...
Without having to add leading zeros to my filenames, can Lightroom sort these numerically as my finder does? Is there a setting I'm missing?

I have a similar problem. My experience suggests it is not an issue with padded zeros. The issue for me is that in using an XP platform, Lightroom uses what is called "intuitive filename sorting." This was a change in the way XP sorted.
"In previous versions of Windows, filenames are sorted text-wise, character by character. File1.txt, File10.txt, and File100.txt are all placed before File2.txt, because the digit 1 comes before the digit 2. Most users have grown accustomed to zero-padding sequential numbers in filenamesFile010.txt correctly comes after File002.txt. Under Windows XP, though, each block of consecutive digits is treated as a number and sorted as such. Even without zero-padding, File10.txt comes after File2.txt."
There is an option in Windows XP to change back to the older -- and preferred -- style of sorting using either a REGEDIT function or simply disabling "intuitive sorting" in TWEAK UI.
Now comes my question for Adobe and users of LR. "How do I change my preferences in LR1.1 so that Lightroom honors the election in XP to sort without using intuitive filename sorting?"
Right now I get the following:
0024-0013.jpg
0024-14-01.jpg
0024-0014.jpg
and I need to have:
0024-0013.jpg
0024-0014.jpg
0024-14-01.jpg
I can create both sorts in Windows Explorer by enabling or disabling "intuitive filename sorting." I need to have LR honor my sorting election made in Windows.
Thanks.

Sort by filename?

Hi, I've just started using PSE and I'm in need of a little help. I'm trying to print off over 2000 photos in a certain order, but I've found that there doesn't seem to be any order by filename option? Putting the photo's into filename order is critical, going into folder location does not help and the prospect of sorting >2000 photos into albums doesn't seem like an enticing prospect.
Does the 'Organizer" honestly not have this simple feature? Won't be buying after trial ends if this is the case.

Taking a shot at answering your inquiry. Answer may not be what you want.
http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1oeKmJNhPCPO2rtZGj8wvDVyJB463
I have many picture files scanned & digitized from old slides, and in Windows 7, they show up as depicted in the print screen in Details View. If you right click, it brings up a context menu from which you can rename. This function may be restricted as to numbers that one can rename.

ICloud: reminders in iCal all over the place, unable to sort

Since I have switched my .me account to iCloud I have been unable to auto sort reminders in iCal on my Mac by date as I used to be able to before the switch.
Before I had the option to sort by date when I clicked on the small triangle on the right side of "reminders". Now there are only all different icloud reminder categories shown.
Surprisingly, when Im using safari and login to ical in icloud reminders are sorted by date as I want it.
Any of you experiencing the same problem or knowing how to solve this issue?
Thanks a lot!

I just talked to Apple Express service over this same problem. I went to the trouble of transferring my to-do list onto icloud Reminders - where each item can be given a priority ranking and where you are then given options for how to sort the list of Reminders you entered. I chose "by priority" of course, but you can also choose alphabetically, etc. However, of course, the point of doing all this is so that the Reminders are available on your actual device - my iphone. I then found that the Reminders list was an unsorted jumble on my iphone. Even when I tap out a Reminder on my iphone itself and choose a priority, the item remains at the bottom of the list as the last thing I typed in. Apple Express Support "explains" that the priority ranking and the sorting choices are "not supported". They offered me "an article" that explains this in detail. In other words, engaging with the Reminder function and choosing priorities and choosing sort orders is all just a cruel joke wasting your time. I would have been better off just printing off my Reminders list on paper and circling the high priority items in red ink. Oh - but you can't print it out either.
Unbelieveable.
