Q: Photos out of order in Events after iOS 8 update

I hear you buddy. Albums it is then

//snake

Did I get this right then? If I put my photos in Albums in Aperture instead of Projects, that's gonna work? What about folders? Because as of right now, I have several Projects together in Folders. E.g. Folder "Concerts" contains Projects "xxxx.xx.xx - Faith No More" etc. Does that work?

How do I sync Albums?  Only my events sync.

MIssKill: I haven't tried folders but put two albums in a folder and see what happens. You can always write your out comings here

as for "syncing albums" I first deleted all photos from my iPhone, then I unchecked all opinions in iTunes before I meticulusly checked just my albums (they show up in the tab picture) after that it was no problem. Remember; if you have tagged any faces then iTunes (iPhoto) will build you a folder called faces NO MATTER WHAT. Same goes if you like me have a smart folder called "videos" and are syncing the in your albums

iphoto thinks you want it that way. Sad but true

meticulously meticulously meticulous.... Not even Apple can spell that right. Jesus hahaha

Having the same problem, not through Aperture, but syncing via iPhoto/iTunes on my iMac.  Events still syncing alphabetically on iPad Air which I haven't updated to iOS 8, and were fine on my iPhone 5, but now with the iPhone 6 and iOS 8 they will not sync alphabetically. 

Interesting point, learned from someone else on this forum:  If you go to Contacts and edit a contact to then choose a picture, Events will appear alphabetically sorted within that screen.  Therefore the phone has them sorted but it's not showing correctly in the Photos app.  This is definitely a bug.

I called Apple Care and they agree it's a bug and made a note of it.  They also suggested sending a feedback form to Apple, as others have done here.  The iOS 8 feedback form is only open to developers at this point, but he suggested I use the iPhone form which I did.  Either way, it gets reported.

If you are having the same problem, PLEASE report it via an Apple feedback form (just Google Apple feedback).  This bug won't be fixed until enough people report it.  Thanks.

"I called Apple Care and they agree it's a bug and made a note of it"

OK that means they will fix it eventually, which is nice. I'll wait then. No reason to

get all exited and change something that is going to be fixed. Albums looks like

sh*t on the iPhone anyway :-)

Sorry to tell y'all that simply because Apple Care knows about it doesn't mean it will ever get fixed.  This particular "bug" (if it really is a bug) is probably not very high on their priority list.

Agree that it probably won't get noticed much through Apple Care, but as I said in my original post the important thing is to send in a feedback form.  It's a volume thing -- if enough of us report the problem, they'll pay attention to it. 

Ok.....so the Photos app on our iOS devices is really starting to p i s s me off.  My wife took some pics of our daughter on her iPhone with photostream enabled as it has always been.   Went into iPhoto today on my mac as I wanted to take a look at 'em and only found 3-4 were in photostream out of about 12-13.  While troubleshooting (which is all I seem to be doing these days with my Apple products, which are supposed to "just work") I decided to turn of and restart photostream on both mine and my wife's iPhones.  Did that, and then when all the pics reloaded, they were also now in some random mixed up order, just as events are.  In addition, the photo count in photostream on my mac has always matched the iPhones.  Now both phones have maxed out in the low 400's with my wife's device having a bit more than mine while photostream on my mac has right around 1000, as it always had and the pics of my daughter, which I can clearly see in the "recently added" album, have still failed to upload to photostream on any device.  AAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGG!

In addition, I have just discovered duplicate photos in the recently added album.  Also, if I take a pic on my iPhone and have photostream on the screen on my mac,  the pic shows up almost immediately.  If I then delete it on my iPhone, it is deleted from photostream on my mac almost instantly as well.  This seems to be unusual behavior as well.  In the past, once they were in photostream, they were there and they couldn't be removed so easily.  Also, if you then go to the recently deleted album and recover the photo on the iPhone, it DOES NOT reappear in photostream on the mac.  So IMHO, the iOS photos app is, right now, a useless piece of garbage. 

Whatever I do, just can't get this right. Just a useless app now

I have 36.000 pictures which are unsorted now. I tried with a iPhone 6plus and an a virgin system. No change!

Even the "faces" are randomly mixed.

I am absolutely angry because I need the pictures for business !

Then you will soon get the problem, of not be able to sync all your photos.

Beside the unsort problem of the faces, the events and the recently added, I have the problem, that the sync aborts almost every time. I've synced 72.000 pics, but a few pics and some intelligent albums are still missing. Sometimes I get no message, but the sync aborts, sometime I get the message, that sync is not possible, because the previous sync wasn't finished.

I've repaired the library several times and synced about 80 times in total. Recently I've got more than 15 GB of other stuff on my phone, which can't be deleted. When I start with a fresh iPhone it still aborts the sync due to the amount of photos. And every abort generates this 'other' stuff.

I have discovered that when you edit a Contact's photo, my Events are listed in alphabetical order. So the problem is in the Photo app and not the sync from iTunes. I find it amazing that Apple remains silent with respect to this issue.
