Sort by name in Mail went (new)

An old bug in Mail is back with Sierra:

Yosemite has no sorting by name in Mail

"most people see mail sorted by date, as I was.  But sometimes I want to see all messages from a particular sender.  All previous versions of mail allowed you simply click on any mail in the Inbox and then click on the tab "Sort by name" at the top to see all [email] sorting by name, starting with the selected email.  Now in Yosemite, instead of beginning with the selected email, it's rather starting to 'A' or 'Z' ignoring the email selected. »

This is a very basic feature is a database that lists the records and it's annoying that it does not work in the Sierra.

Use the search option 1). Enter its name in the search box. Select from. Make sure that all is selected in the Favorites bar.

Option 2) select the name of the person in an e-mail. Mouse over the email. You will see an arrow down.  Select Add to VIP. This is all the emails from this person. After finishing, remove the VIPs.

  • How to sort previously existing records, when adding new bookmarks?

    I use FF 8 on a Windows PC.

    I know that I can add new bookmarks by clicking on the icon star or by right-clicking and selecting bookmark this Page. However, these two just send the new bookmark in the folder of unsorted bookmarks . At the end of each session, I then go manually through said folder, sort newly added Favorites in named folders.

    On the drop-down menu Edit this bookmark , there is the option to send the new bookmark to: choose, Unsorted Bookmarks, bookmarks Menu, Bookmarks Toolbar. I do not use the bookmarks toolbar by choice. If I choose the Menu bookmarks as destination folder, I still have the task of 'end of session' sort manually bookmarks newly added. And if I go for the option of Choosing , the same options available just recycle.

    Is it possible to create new folders of pre-sorting, which correspond to the and with my list of files of existing bookmarks? So I don't have to go through the sort of "end of session"? Or is folder: drop down menu, just a redundant back to a previous version of FF? (If it's the latter, it may be something for developers remove.)

    Please don't refer me back to the help files on the bookmarks. The only advice given sort, are recirculation references to add new bookmarks to the Unsorted Bookmarks folder and renaming, neither of which I have a problem with for the moment.

    "If you use the default theme there are two arrows next to the folder: name in the dialog Page Bookmarked." The arrow to the right opens a larger window (the same as when you select Choose) where you can select any folder in the folder Menu bookmarks by opening this folder (where all bookmark folders residing of your creation, outside the Bookmarks Toolbar folder). Simply select the folder you want to in this larger window. »

    I noticed that both of these arrows; If I select the larger of the two I just get a drop-down menu that lists the Bookmarks Toolbar, bookmarks Menu, unsorted bookmarkswith the new folderoption. If I then select new folder, then only I am presented with my existing bookmarks menu. From here I can then select a directory, but the new bookmark is placed inside the list in the folder/sub folder.

    If I choose the smaller arrow, I get Bookmarks Toolbar, bookmarks Menu, bookmarks not sorted, to Choose. Now if I select Choose, then I get a drop-down menu of bookmarks, Bookmarks Menu, Unsorted Bookmarks toolbar, with the new folderoption. And the above applies with respect to sorting.

    "Personally in profile with my largest set of bookmarks (have 3 different sets of bookmarks in separate profiles), I opened the sidebar using {Ctrl + B} with my left hand (small and indexes), drag the icon of the Web site with the mouse in my right hand, and then close the sidebar with another use {Ctrl + B}."

    You use the Ctrl + B to open or close, is by far the simplest method and I will use it in the future. And by dragging the icon of the Web site in the manner described above seems a valid method to add a new bookmark. However, there is no way to change the new name of the bookmark before being placed in the folder. But at least with this method, you can choose the exact position in the file/folder.

    "In addition, sometimes in another profile I drag site for the Bookmarks button icon in the Navigation bar, which opens the drop-down list of bookmarks and also the folder I want to place the new bookmark and save a new bookmark in this .manner....

    By dragging the icon of the site Web in the manner described above is also a valid method to add a new bookmark. However, there is no way to change the new name of the bookmark before being placed in the folder. But at least with this method, you can choose the exact position in the file/folder.

    "... "I do not use the bookmarks toolbar in any profile, I reduced the upper toolbar area down to only one or two toolbars to save space for the content of the page."

    Me too.

    As you say, it's not perfect, but there are ways to sort the entries. However if you want short and precise names for bookmarks, (and not the complete Web site address and or the list of what is at that site) then a certain amount of editing and or random play will take place at a later date. I'll look around for a Add-on to help me and thank you for your knowledge and help in this quest. I think for now at least, I will have to mix & match different ways to add new bookmarks and continue editing bookmarks newly added at the end of each session.

    Novel I just fell on the info that FF is a 32-bit application. Now I use it on a 64-bit PC. I checked beforehand to make sure that I got the correct version. But the newly acquired information indicates that the 64-bit versions of FF may be unstable. Maybe that's why I don't get the same range of menus as suggested.

  • Office sort by name DOES NOT WORK! By selecting once must rank in alphabetical order (you know A TO Z!) Selecting again should sort in reverse alphabetical order - PERIOD!

    (1) right click Desktop Windows7 containing more than 3 Articles. (I suggest 15 items like a bed of arbitrary "test bench" - tests with 3 items on the desktop will produce any desired results)  Otherwise, I take it your troubleshooting skills 'Null '.  It should be easy to place 15 shortcuts with DIFFERENT characters of departure on your Windows 7 Desktop - there are 26 characters to choose from in the English alphabet.

    (2) choose "sort by name".

    (3) try to understand new interpretation of what Microsoft of 'Alphabetical order' means!

    I jumped through all the "hoops" that Microsoft requires to submit this issue, as all other users here.  I have faithfully install all blessed Windows updates.  Yet, there is no solution.  This issue causes me to serioulsly are wary of what makes Windows 7 to correctly reflect my intelligence to others by running other applications developed by Microsoft.  I am running Windows 7 Professional, and the Virtual Machine XP always knows her alphabet!  Should I buy Windows 7 Ultimate for "Enjoy" the function of sorting in alphabetical order?    REALLY!  It is a legitimate problem - GET the number of POSITIONS!  After having examined them, if Microsoft still believes that there are really that many stupid people here, then fine.  Just fix it in the next update of Windows 7, and all of us, "stupid" people will at least "happy fools!

    Sorts the elements of the bureau in the following order:

    (1) Windows stuff, like the Recycle Bin

    (2) Public\Desktop

    (3) %user%\Desktop

    Or as midi510 above, just move the Public\Desktop in %user%\Desktop - but I think you'd have to do for all users (if more than one account)

    Wouldn't be nice if MS never listened to their customers?

  • Sort by name results in wrong order

    When sorting by name in windows Explorer, the files are not correctly sorted.  To reproduce, create the following files, and then sort them by name.

    1a.txt
    1B.txt
    11 txt
    12 txt
    2A.txt

    When the files are sorted by name, the file named "2a.txt" is placed between "1b.txt" and 11 ".txt" when it should be placed at the end of the list after "12.txt '.

    How can I fix?

    It is relatively simple as you use and that you want to use WLM.

    You will need to copy a folder from where it is (the old installation) to another place where you know it will be (for example on your desktop)

    The folder is c:\users\your user name\app data (if it is not there, see the note below) \local\microsoft\

    At that point you will see a folder named oddly enough "windows live mail" copy on your desktop

    If you don't see the app data because it is invisible atm.  To make it visible, you need to go to your control panel > folder options > view > change to hidden folders (see figure)

    Once you have mail backed up on your desktop (or where ever) drag the folder from the desktop to the location for the new WLM (once again we C;-... just like above).  Just make sure that WLM does not run in time.  What wont be imported, it of passwords and rules.

    Accounts and data should now be in the new WLM when you open it.
