Hello Isilver,

Yes, it is possible to change the order of photos in an album. Open the album. Then tap edit to the right of the top menu. Tap and hold the photo you want to move and slide it to its new place. Repeat till you have completed the exercise. Then tap Done. That's it.

Thanks for the question and answer as I have wanted to move photos about in my albums but when I try I find it only works if changing the order of albums not photos within each album. Any suggestions?

Hi Steveski,

Welcome to the forum.

I don't know why you are having problems with moving the photos about in an album. The technique I described in my last post in this thread works for me. Here are some screen shots of what I do. I have moved the last image, a B&W sketch, up to the row above it. Note the buttons to the right of the top ribbon menu.

The album as is. I tapped the Edit button to reach the next stage.

I've move the image and will then press the Done button to finish my task.

HTH

Now, I recommend you read the test of my last post, the welcome message, and explore the links.

Enjoy the forum.

Still can't get pictures to move, only the albums. Can't work out why.

What is your iPad? Also, what version of iOS are you running? This information may help us solve your problem.

Additionally, have you checked the iPad online guide?

I have had two iPads, two and now three. I love using it. Flowers and animals look amazing on the screen.
