Why is the sorting so limited?

In iTunes when sorting  you are only able to sort by one catagory. My difficulty is I have a large library with mostly Classical music in it. When I sort by album it inverts the order of play so as the 4th movement of a symphony is played first and the first last. What I require is some way to sort the album and the order in which the name is needed to be played. I've tried numbering at the start of the name. All this does when sorting by album is to list all the 01 through whatever number is the end only to get all the 01's lumped together.

Thanks – I am aware of that sorting function and do use it
I probably did not phrase my question correctly
In the left hand panels in LR –
If one chooses Folders and then as an example “ My Pictures”
There should be a simple approach to sort the order of the folders by Date Taken etc?
I guess one can work around it – but it seems to simple – I do not understand why Adobe does not include this sorting option
Other programs in photo editing  do …..
Thanks

  • ITunes Store: South Africa: Why is the store so limited?

    Why is the store so limited with available Apps? Facebook Apps like Zynga games is unavailable. Angry birds is available from Blackberry for crying out loud but not iTunes South Africa. 

    This has been covered in many other threads. As reported by another SA user, Apple and the SA government are negotiating over how to apply Apple's iTunes Store age ratings to the SA regulations so as to allow more apps to be sold in the SA iTunes Store. Where those negoiations stand I don't know.
    Regards.

  • ?Why is the sorting feature in Libray mode so limited?

    I truly love to work with lighroom
    However, I hope that in the next adbobe update , that a more advanced but fundamental search/sort feature is added to the library mode.
    specifically - in Library mode --under folders -- there is no way to sort the folders other than alphabetically
    why not -- like most, even primitive photo editing software, can one not sort by date, time taken, place etcetc ... at least by date!!

  • Why is the decorations so limited?

    I have been using labview since 4.0 and have seen huge improvements in most areas of the environment but decorations have not changed all that much, Why?  Lately I have seen clients which want to see applications be commercialized but want it to look less like labview from a user point of view.  I have to exhaust almost every GUI trick in labview to do this and it is not all that easy.  There are so many improvements for labview on this front.  There needs to be an extended decoration class which uses a standard vector graphic with additional properties and methods to modify these objects at runtime. 
    1.  Allow for naming of extended decorations to enable referencing these objects (NOT using Decoration[] from pane and keeping track of this unexposed index)
    2.  Extend the color property from FG, BG to FG, BG, Colors[] where an unlimited number of configurable programatic colors can be changed ate edit or runtime.
    3.  Allow for blending, texturing and patterning objects.
    4.  Allow for rotation of vector graphics.
    5.  Provide methods for accessing and modifying the vector graphics to change the decoration at runtime.
    It would be noce to beable to make custom decorations that act much like 3d pipes in DSC.
    The ability to have complete control over decorations will allow the GUI of labview to extend much like other languages.  I feel that the current decoration object is too limited.  Opening up this format could allow the community to make GUIs that rival other languages and environments (think of Apple interfaces).  Integrating this control with Xcontrols would allow users to make entire control sets for each industry and toolkits with relative ease.
    Just some of my thoughts.  I could be alone here.

    I dont think performance should take too much of a hit if they use a new data type instead of replacing the original decoration which still has its place.  Since the graphic device interface is completly removed from the vi there is no way to implement this without NI adding it.  A vector grapohic object native to labview and interchangable with current decoration (possible an extended class) whould be great to have.

  • Why is the icloud adress limited to 21 characters?

    My name was already taken and the same happened me at gmail. My solution was to add my middle name and the result was an address 23 characters long. That was no problem with gmail but icloud seems to have a 21 characters limit, why?
    This will probably keep me from aquiring an icloud email address becuase adding something similar to my real name will only result in confusion with the already taken address. Adding my middle name would make some sense but anything else would feel too contrived.
    I would really like to be able to use applications like Notes and maybe even mail but not if I can't be able to choose an email address that makes sense so please explain to me why I should be prevented from selecting an address 23 characters long...
    Ps. I really love my Apple products (iMac, Mac Book Pro, iPads and iPhones) but I don't like them being locked into services that doesen't make sense to me. It is quite frankly taking the edge off the so called user experience. Stupidity like allowing 21 characters for miljons of users to come up with unique user names...

    Today I tried to setup Family Sharing on IOS 8.
    First I had to give Apple my credit card number to set it up.  I have always used gift cards up until now and I do not see why apple need my credit card number to use family sharing.  I guess it is so Apple can say they have 5 billion and one credit card numbers on file.  Oh Well.
    Then I started to create an apple ID for my 10 year old son.  Well guess what, Apple won't accept my son's email address because it is over 21 characters long.  The domain for my son's email is 17 characters.  Add the @ and that makes 18 which only leaves 3 characters for the name.  I am not changing my son's email address just to get family sharing working. 
    Please remove this ridiculous limitation for an apple ID.
    I am not going to create a new email address for my son just to use family sharing, No not even an iCloud address.
    I am off now to remove my credit card details from my iTunes account.
    Too bad that a great idea has been totally ruined because of a silly limit on the length of an email address.

    The problem is that your Flash Player is not current. Check this to see what the current version is (vs what you have) and here to get the latest version. There is supposed to be a major security issue in the version you've got so Apple is blocking its use. In any case, don't get Flash Player from anywhere except Adobe.

  • Web - 500 images max? Why are the flash templates limited to 500?

    Is there any reason for limiting the templates to 500? is there a work-around?

    > Because nobody should be subjected to

    LOL!
    On a more serious note, nobody should be subject to waiting while LR processes and uploads over 2000 images. Even on a fast machine that would take some serious time.
    I have to wonder if LR is the best application for such large numbers of images. I'd suspect there are better programs out there, ones that don't insist on re-rendering the images every time and re-uploading them all. Dreamweaver comes to mind as an obvious choice.
    Should you insist on using LR, possibly consider breaking the images up into galleries. The folks at Theturninggate have some templates that allow you to organize galleries. I haven't used them, so I don't know specifics, but they look like they do some really neat stuff, and they have some automation options to help make it easier.

  • I received a text today while at work about iCloud keychain verification code. I have not signed up for it or anything that uses it. I work out of the city with limited internet access so not sure why I would be getting this. Is my info safe??

    I received a text today while at work about iCloud keychain verification code. I have not signed up for it or anything that uses it. I work out of the city with limited internet access so not sure why I would be getting this. I only got this number about a month ago. Apparently someone else had the number before because I get texts from his family members wondering whats going on. I got one yesterday and the person didn't seem to thrilled that the number was cutoff and today I got 2 texts about iCloud Keychain which I don't even know what it is. Seems suspicious to me. If the person who use to own the number is doing it he should know it is not his number anymore because he obviously didn't pay his bills.  I'm not too sure about iCloud Keychain so just want to know my info safe?? It says it can store credit card numbers which is what gets me worried. Frankly I think it's pretty stupid to save that kind if information with any kind of app. But I don't want some random person trying to access my personal information because they are bitter they lost their number.  Please let me know as soon as possible so I can change passwords or anything that is needed.
    thanks

    If it were me, I would go to my carrier and get a new number. Since you have only had it for a month, the inconvenience would be minimal.

  • Why does iPhoto change the sort order of the photos in my album when I attempt to share via Photo Stream?

    Why does iPhoto change the sort order of the photos in my album when I attempt to share via Photo Stream?

    Did anyone find a good way to sort the shared albums better, so that the ones you share with can better find their way around.
    You can arrange them manually in an album, select all and use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date to menu option and check the box to add a set interval between photos. That will let the photos be sorted by date and be in the order you want:

  • HT2470 Why does this not explain how to change the sort order?

    Why does this (i.e. support at Apple.com) not explain how to change the sort order? I can "arrange" by Date Modified for example but it won't let me switch to use most recent dates first. Also, what is Apple-speak for arrange versus sort anyway? It seems I used to be able to click on a column heading in finder and get a drop down arrow allowing me to change the sort sequence.

    Arrange roughly translates to "group the items in the folder." Sort is how each group is ordered. If you have arrange set to none, you can sort by anything. However, there is no way in the Arrange/Sort menu to choose the direction. The only way to do that is in the List View, and you must have Arrangement set to None.
    I've submitted an Enhancement Request to allow choosing sort direction from the Arrange/Sort menu, but I haven't ever gotten a response, which is good and bad. Good because they will often respond that they have considered it and don't plan on implementing. Bad in that they've haven't implemented it.

  • Why is EVERYTHING I put in the SORT & FILTER window of this forum resulting in "INVALID TAG" error windows?

    No matter what I put in, whether the version, my OS, or the problem, nothing I put in the sort & filter window will actually sort & filter the messages! I do not really wish to go through each one to find those relevant to my issue, computer, & version I'm running! Also, why is there no way to look up the questions I've asked, to see if there have been any responses?

    You can see the questions you have asked at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/search?a=1&asked_by=StevenCee&sortby=1&w=2
    The sort and filter is used to filter be specific, pre-set tags. For example, all Mac 10.6 tags are, https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions?tagged=mac-os-x-106. You can't put whatever you want in that field, that's what the search is for.

  • Why is the iphone search function spotlight limited in time?

    why is the iphone search function spotlight limited in time? I can only find entries that are less than a year old,but I would like to search older entries in my calender, which goes back to 2002. Anyone has a solution for this?

    Are you sure that your calendar still contains entries from that long ago? Generally when you sync the iPhone through iTunes, it will only sync entries from a specific time frame. It may be there older entries have been archived and do not exist on the iPhone anymore. Other than that, I don't see any setting that allows modification to the time frame for Spotlight search.

  • When I download a podcast on my iPhone why is the release date missing? This really screws up the sort order.

    when I download a podcast on my iPhone why is the release date missing? This really screws up the sort order.

    Hello yung ron,
    It may be that your iPhone's set to sync automatically, which can potentially remove any music that's been added to the device. It may help to set the device to 'manual mode,' so that you have complete and total control over what content is on the device.

  • Why is the ITunes Store in South Africa so limited

    why is the ITunes Store in South Africa so limited

    Apple can only sell content where the rights-holders grant them licenses to sell it (and in some cases a country's laws also limit things). If there is a particular item that is not currently available that you would like to be able to download then you try requesting that it be added, but unless the rights-holder agrees to it then Apple won't be able to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
    For music you could check to see if its available on other music purchase downloads sites that you have access to (or if it's available as a CD then you could buy that and copy it via your computer's iTunes).
    For ebooks there are other ebook apps/stores where it might be available e.g. Amazon/Kindle, Nook, Kobo etc
