Why can't I sort my photos by Title when creating a Calendar?

I am doing my first calendar in iPhoto 9.1.2, and thus experiencing my first 'issue' with the new interface. I am creating this calendar from an Event of a family member's 400+ photos from their recent trip to Australia, and unfortunately for me, the battery that keeps track of date and time on her camera was not functioning, so they are all labeled with the same date of Jan 1, 1980. Thankfully I can sort them by Title when viewing in iPhoto. However, when I select this Australia Event to create my calendar, all of the photos revert to being sorted by date. I have tried re-sorting them while in my calendar project, but there are no changes in the order of the images.
Please tell me there is a work-around for this problem. Seems like in the past, the order of the photos when creating a project reflected the way they are sorted in your library.
Thanks in advance if anyone's got any tips...

I did manage to figure out a way around this --- while in the Event, I sorted all photos by title, and then I Batch-Changed the dates to a new date, leaving a minute between each photo, thus putting them in the right chronological order when I created a project using these photos.

  • Why can't I sort music?

    Why can't I sort music on my iPod when it's connected to PC? I can sort the music in my library by any column.

    I have the same issue since the latest update.  I can no longer sort my music by song title on my iPad.  When I click on "Songs", it is sorted by Artist.  The songs aren't even sorted alphabetically by artist in this mode.  I checked on my computer and I have my music "Library" sorted by song title, not by artist. 
    This is very frustrating when trying to locate a song title.
    Any help?

  • Why can't I view my photos when I log into my iCloud account?

    Why can't I see my photos on iCloud when I have Photo stream activated on my IPhone and computer

    Because photo stream is a sync service, it is not a storage service where you can post gallaries and view photos directly in icloud.com.
    It's only used for syncing photos between devices and computers.

    Why can I no longer add photos my iPhoto book? Is there a limit to the number of photos? Must I delete unused photos?

    This is book # 13 and I've not encountered this problem before. I am dragging photos into the sourse pane but they are not imported. I have other books w/ over 700  pics (not all used) but this has only 300+ so far. I've copied the book to a pdf and it looks as if I'll have to redo it unless there's another solution.

  • Why can I no longer import photos to iphoto library from the internet with a right click?

    Why can i no longer import photos from the internet to my iphoto library with just a right click?

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.

    In imovie can you trim multiple clips at a time?  Also, can you randomly sort the photos?

    Can I do all at once or 1 at a time? It seems to only allow 1 at a time.
    No. But you can do one, copy its settings, then seclect the rest and "Paste Audio Settings" to all of them all at once in a project.

  • Why Can't I put whatever photos I want on my IPAD?

    That's it. That is my question. Why can't I put more photos on my ipad from whatever computer I feel like it without having to delete the photos on there? It is incredibly frustrating.

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

    - Try another payment method.
    - Contact iTunes
    Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
    - Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

    iCloud services merely "push" your Phto Stream files to enabled devices.
    You can't view your photos at iCloud.com.

  • Why can't I open I Photo??

    Why can't I open I Photo??

    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
