Why aren't my photo albums in alpha order on AppleTV?

I have AppleTV 1. When I scan my iPhoto albums to select one to play a slideshow, the albums are not in the alphabetical order as in iPhoto. And, AppleTV shows some "albums" that are actually not albums at all - they are individual photos. Can anyone explain this? How can I get AppleTV to show all of my albums in alpha order?

I couldn't answer that with any guarantee, I don't share events with my Apple TVs. If as may be the case events aren't able to be listed in the same ways as albums, you might consider using Albums instead of events. I use them out of preference as they allow me to do a number of things that events don't, such as missing out photos or using the same photo in more than one album.

  • Why aren't my photos in an alfabetical order?

    The photos that I sync from my Windows computer are in an alfabetical order on this computer. When I sync this Photos to my ipad, the are not always in an alfabetical order ( I sync complete maps). How can I avoid that the photos aren't in an alfabetical order on my ipad?

    On iOS 5 they are sorted by their 'date modified' field : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4221
    So to get them into a alphabetical order you will need to change their modify dates prior to syncing. Or there are third-party photo management apps such as Photo Manager Pro which allow you to change their order within them, including by name

    I think you can achieve what you want to do on the X6. On the X6 an album is termed a folder.
    If you go to the Gallery so that you can see the large list of thumbnail photos and select
    Options > Folder options > New folder
    Create the folder with a name of your choice.
    You should then see a folder icon appear at the top of the large list of thumbnail images. If you then select, or 'Mark', the images that you want to group together by selecting
    Options > Mark/Unmark > Mark (you may have to scroll down before Mark/Unmark appears).
    Once you have a little tick by all the photos that you want to group together then select
    Options > Folder options > Move to folder and choose the folder you created earlier.
    You should then have only those images grouped together in a single folder (or album ). You can create as many folders as you like. I use this method to group all my wallpaper images together and also any system images that the gallery may discover so that they don't clog up the main gallery.
    Note: From what I can see the actual locations of the photographs on either drive C: or drive E: remain unchanged, only their listing within the gallery is changed so that an image appears in the main group or within a 'folder'.
    Hope that helps and I hope I've understood you correctly in terms of what you want to do.

  • How can I manipulate Albums to alpha order within Keynote?

    Trying to manipulate Iphoto Albums to alpha order within Keynote.  It works within iphoto but when I bring up photos to add into keynote, the order shuffles.  I have some 1800 pics to draw from on my presentations.  I need to be able to find what im looking for quickly.  Any thoughts?

    Load your backup? What caused this?

  • I wish to put my photo albums in alphabetical order.  Advice was to right click on pane at left.   I do not have a left pane on my i-pad and only have touch screen,what do I "right click" with and how do I get a "left pane" in my Photos folder?

    I would like to put my i-pad photo albums into alphabetical order.  The advice received previously was to "right click" on an album in the left pane.   I do not have a left pane in my photos folder, how would I get this?   Also I only have touch screen so what would I "right click" with? thank you

    I don't have iPhoto on my iPad, so I can't help with that, but you must have looked at advice for a Mac computer? Maybe browse the iPhoto for iOS forum?

  • Why are my pictures in the "All Photos" Album out of order?

    Within Albums there is an "All Photos" folder but some of the photos are out of order. How is this "All Photos" album different to the "Photos" view (which is in the correct order) and why are they not the same?

    Thanks, that's a helpfuland explanation of the difference and makes sense as all  my photos are actually  in an album (which was an event in the previous version).
    However it doesn't explain why the order in "all photos" is different.  It is not in the order that the albums are arranged, and odd photos seem randomly scattered about separated from other photos from the same album. 
    On a separate note It's also a shame as there is no way of arranging the albums chronologically (which you could do with events)

  • Why don't my photo albums sync to my iphone exactly as they appear in iphoto?

    I set up an album in iphoto 9.6 and arranged the order of the photos just as I wanted them. But when I sync  (itunes 12.1.0.50) to my iphone 6 (ios 8.1.3), several photos are out of order and some are replaced with photos from my elsewhere in my iphoto collection that I did not select for the album. How can I get the album to sync exactly as I set it up in iphoto?

    No there isn't, I'm afraid.

  • Photo Albums in Random Order

    I have recently moved from Aperture to Lightroom because Apple are no longer going to develop Aperture. Needless to say I have to create new photo albums to be able to view on ATV, which I've done.
    Now when I point iTunes to the folders of albums they appear in chronological order in iTunes (my files are names by year/month - album name   e.g.. 2014/08 - Vacation)
    When I view the photo album list on ATV they are in a random order. Does anyone know a work around that I am not seeing. I do remember some years ago this happened and then an update happened and it seemed to rectify it. And yes my ATV's are up to date.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Before going into any depth about this have you checked that you aren't simply using the shuffle option in the slideshow settings.

  • How do you sort photo albums in date order instead of alphabetic order?

    I am sorry that I ran afoul of the user guidelines, I'll remove the rant if I can.  I certainly did not intend my  gripe to target the helpful responder.  And yes, I did provide the feedback to Apple.  I'm just used to such feedback going into a "black hole".  Which this almost certainly does because this problem has existed for years (I Googled for an answer first.)  However, it should be noted that company's tend to respond to feedback that is very public if they want to keep a good name in the business.  The private feedback through the program is like a quiet whisper, only the two parties involved know about it, so there is no real incentive for prompt action.

  • Creating photo album in historical order for web page viewing

    I am trying to use Photoshop Elements 7 for Windows to create a photo album of historical images for our college archives. The photos were scanned from old pictures so defaulted to sort by the date scanned. I have edited the album by dragging and dropping the pictures to arrange them from the earliest picture of our first building through the years to the present. When this album is viewed on the webpage through www.photoshop.com/ the pictures do not display in the correct order. Can this be changed and if so, how?

    After you first sync a PSE 7 album with Photoshop.com, any changes you make to the ordering of pics in the album in PSE arent synced back to Photoshop.com and vice versa. Youll have to manually reorder them in Photoshop.com.
    A couple of suggestions for your project:
    - Consider assigning dates to the photos in PSE using Edit > Adjust Date And Time. That way, theyll show up correctly ordered in the PSE Organizer, and you can easily add new scanned photos and theyll automatically get ordered.
    - Consider using Flickr, Smugmug, or other online service rather than Photoshop.com. Photoshop.com is brand new and has a number of basic bugs in its service it doesnt preserve ordering of albums, it mangles the dates/times of photos, synchronization frequently stalls. Maybe in another six months itll be more robust.

  • Photo album - image display order

    I just figured out how to get a (massive) photo album onto my 3GS (iOS4) but the order the images are displayed in appears to be random. Is there a way to have the photos displayed in chronological order?
    Thanks.
    (and now I have just noticed that there is no longer any content in the iPod app, where just before the sync, there was about 10GB. When I hook the phone back up to iTunes, the summary page shows the audio and video correctly, but there is nothing accessible on the phone.)

    It seems that iOS devices (or is it just my iPhone 4?) order the photos by file name in stead of not by date. The solution is to rename the photos in Aperture (or iPhoto) based on the date and time taken. In Aperture you can batch change your photos and select version name format: Image Date/Time. It worked! All photos are in order.
    Not sure if similar batch renaming is possible in iPhoto, though. Personally, I think the photo order on iOS devices should be based on date and time.

  • Synchronizing certain photo albums with iTunes 9 to AppleTV or iPhone

    Hey,
    can somebody please explain to me how to synchronize certain Photo album to my AppleTV or iPhone? Whenever I select the device on the left hand side list in iTunes (9.0.2) and go to the "Photos" tab on the right hand side I only have the choice between "All Photos, Events,.." and "Synchronizing photos before anything else". The choice in the middle "selected album, Photos, Events, ..." is always greyed out and not selectable.
    So: What do I have to do the synchronize certain photo albums ? I am using Mac OS X 10.6.2, iTunes 9.0.2 and iPhoto 8.1.1

    You need to go into your iPhoto application and turn off (or disable) all music that is tied to any of your self-created slideshows. This error seems to be directly related to odd characters in the titles of the songs in your slideshows. Then sync your photos. Afterward, you can then "try" and go back in and re-attach your songs inside your slideshows, and see if your iPhoto photos will again sync without the -50 error.

  • Why aren't my photos going straight to my photo folder on iPhone 5

    Can anyone please tell me why when I take a photo on my iPhone 5 I can see it in my folder on the camera but when I come out and go into photos from my home screen they aren't there? Thanks in advance.

    If you are not using the apple camera app to take the pictures, then they are going into whichever app (like Camera+) took the photos.  You'd have to use that app to copy them to the photo app.

  • Why aren't synced photos showing up on Camera Roll?

    I had some photos on my iPhoto (on MacBook Air) that I wanted to have on my iPhone 5.
    I synced the photos, I checked my Camera roll but they weren't there, so I checked the Photos tab (moments/collections) and they were there.
    Then why arent the photos showing up on my Camera Roll?

    As Japib says: See this link:   Get help finding your Photos in iOS 8
    What's in the Camera Roll and My Photo Stream album?
    If you don't have iCloud Photo Library beta enabled, you'll have Camera Roll and My Photo Stream albums in iOS 8.1 or later. The Camera Roll album shows all photos saved to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, and it organizes your photos by the date they were added to your device. This includes all photos taken by your device or saved to your device through a Camera Connection Kit. It doesn't include photos synced to the device from iTunes.
