P: Problem reordering images manually on MacOS

Lightroom 5 bug in reordering images manually - Mac OS Only.

Symptoms:
In grid view if you drag a photo to change position and try to swap
with the image on immediate left the image you're dragging moves to the last place.

Step to reproduce:
1-Open lightroom
2-select a folder
3-click on one image
4-drag over the immediate left image
5-release click
6-the image moves to the end of the grid

versions affected: 5.0 -> 5.7
OS: Mac OS X only (10.9.x - possibly other versions too)

    Thank you Jeffrey.

    I hope is fixed but this bug is three year old and I think this is one of the worst experience I had with a software house (beside the old Microsoft I think).

    I will try LR6 but I will seriously look for an alternative.

    This should be fixed in Lightroom CC/Lightroom 6.

    Adobe has officially acknowledged this (see the yellow badge at the upper-right of this page).

    Same problems on the last version.

    Someone from Adobe can comment on?

    Years ago, they had something like that, but replaced it with this forum. Overall, I prefer this, since it makes potential problems (and eventual solutions) visible to the entire community.

    I was expecting something more complete, like Apple's radar.

    This is Adobe's official site for reporting problems, so the problem has already been reported (with more detail than is usually provided).

    While Adobe actively monitors this site and acknowledges some problems (and fixes fewer), most reported problems remain unacknowledged.

    Thank you John,
    I know the workaround, nevertheless the bug
    makes lightroom unusable to do editing and sequencing.
