In System Preferences, is it possible to rearrange the icons in alphabetical order. I believe they were in alphabetical order in older machines but not in the newer models. 2015-01-01T17:57:42+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1140#5103 Euan Williams info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Hi Drew, welcome home for what we all hope will be a happy new year for you too! System preferences can be viewed in alpha order by going to its View menu, and clicking on "Organize Alphabetically". This is true in Yosemite, but I haven't checked for Mavericks, etc. 2015-01-02T18:08:37+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1140#5107 Drew McFarlane info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Thank you Euan, where do your glean your Apple knowledge from? It is certainly not from the "Help" menu on their computers. 2015-01-12T19:56:51+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1140#5128 Lionel Ogden info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Yes it also applies in Lion 2015-01-12T20:36:47+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1140#5129 Derek Wright info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ The format and functions of the User Interface on the Mac are very consistent. So mostly any tricks you learn in one application can be also applied in another application. Assuming you are dealing with the same type of data. So if you find out how to do something in say Preview and you want to apply the same principles elsewhere give it a try - it will most probably work.
