MacBook Reminders

I keep changing my Reminders on my MacBook Pro to sort by Date but whenever I return to the list the sort has defaulted back to Manual. How can I keep it sorted by Date?

Sort reminder lists on Mac



1 - Restart in Safe Mode. This will perform a Disk Repair, clear cache files and only load Apple Software, extensions and fonts. The boot up will be slow and can take some time - Normal.


2 - Does the issue present in this mode ?


3 - Sometimes a Safe Boot followed by a Normal Boot will just put things right.


4 - If not - there could be something in the main User Account playing up. To further isolate this - Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac. Then log out of the Main User account and log into the dummy account and test again if the issue persists.


5 - If the issue is present in the dummy account - then, this appears to be a System Wide issue on the computer.


6 - If after performing each of the above steps in the order that have been presents and still have issues - please advise for possible further assistance.
