Help- Image management question

->> Ok, I shoot with two bodies. The dates and times are correctly set in each camera. I upload straight into Aperture. Aperture Sorts by date created. Everything is cool so far. When I am done viewing, deleting, and editing in Aperture, I move the images into a folder on the desktop (Mac G5). When the images are moved the order gets scrambled and reorganizes based on the order shot but by each camera, i.e. all the 1D shots first and then all the 30D shots. I have tried to reset the viewing through both Photoshop and Mac Finder, but the images won't go back to the order Aperture had originally arranged them in.
Where is the "Easy Button"??
Thanks in advance.

->> Sounds like you have your folder set to list by name, rather than by date. You can change finder window to sort by date. But the better option is to rename your files in Aperture once you have them sorted by date there. Then you'll have the added security in that the file names will also be in time order.

| ->> I use a renaming programing as soon as I pull photos off the card to order them in the correct sequence by creation date. From then on, I can do whatever I want and they dates don't matter, just the name. |

| ->> I sort by capture time in Photo Mechanic, then rename the files in numerical order before I open them elsewhere. |
