Using the Lists View Options:

You can use a Profile View or Grid View to see your Media List. You have to option of selecting your favorite view as the default but can always toggle among the view choices.

To access the Profile or Grid Views, select the Lists button in the upper righthand corner.

2. Click the Name box to see the data you can use to sort the contacts or outlets.
3. Select the data by which you want to sort the list.
