Having problems with sorting citation inline with biblatex and biber

Question

I am working on my thesis and having some problem with citations. I am using biber and natbib.

The thing is when I cite in line with \citep{ } and want to cite several author like: \citep{B-Athor, A-Author, Y-Author} it does not sort the authors in alphabetically manner, it gives me the sequence in which I put it in the \citep{ } (B-Athor, A-Author, Y-Author) and not (A-Author, B-Athor, Y-Author).

At the end in the bibliography everything is sorted alphabtically

A second thing is that if I habe several papers from the same author but different years it gives me (A-Author 1200, A-Author 1300) I want: (A-Author 1200, 1300).

enter image description here

Than in the bibliography it gives me:

enter image description here

and not (I want it this way):

 A-Author 1200, Informaation about paper
 A-Author 1300, Informaation about paper

Hope someone can help

This here should compile and produce the problems that I have, using biber:

 \citet{ bender:1975, bender:1968, bender:1974}

   \printbibliography

 \end{document}

using he .bib file:

@Book{bender:1975,
  Title                    = {Geology of the Arabian Peninsula - Jordan},
  Author                   = {F. Bender},
  Publisher                = {Geological Survey (U.S.)},
  Year                     = {1975} }

@Book{bender:1974,
  Title                    = {Geology of Jordan},
  Author                   = {F. Bender},
  Publisher                = {Gebrueder Borntraeger},
  Year                     = {1974} }

@InCollection{bender:1968,
  Title                    = {Geologie von Jordanien.},
  Author                   = {F. Bender},
  Booktitle                = {Beitraege zur Regionalen Geologie der Erde.},
  Year                     = {1968} }

Please update you MWE to something that actually compiles. Might also be a good idea to provide a sample .bib and add the \cite command. Making everything as easy as possible to those who might help, greatly increases your changes of getting help (or at least speed up the answers) — daleif, Feb 05 '15 at 09:13
You want the option dashed=false and probably the style style=authoryear-comp. — moewe, Mar 05 '15 at 08:59

You want the option dashed=false and the style authoryear-comp.

Your MWE then becomes
