I'm helping a friend out moving his IPhoto library. I'm trying make the process as streamlined as possible as he is not very computer savvy. He has number of albums that are in a custom sort order in iphoto. I do not see an option to sort by file modification time. Although there is option by edit time (this pertains to stuff done in LR I assume). The process i plan on going through is the export the photos from iphoto album's. This should date/time stamp the file in the custom sort order they are in iphoto. But as said earlier in the post not option sort by file modification time.
Thanks
