How do I sort ALL my bookmarks into alphabetical order?

I have read and understand that Firefox allows me to sort alphabetically within each of my folders BUT that's not what I want or need. I want my entire list of bookmarks, including the folders, in alphabetical order. It's far too confusing as it is and takes forever to find what I'm looking for. And oddly it seems to me that a whole lot of users are asking for the same answer!

How do I sort ALL my bookmarks into alphabetical order with ONE CLICK? (continued)

You can sort all your bookmarks alphabetically in one shot with the Auto-Sort Bookmarks add-on.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/auto-sort-bookmarks/?src=api
Note: Since the other thread with this name was closed, I'm posting this in a new thread.
Here's the old thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/933835

I've been watching this (general) thread for years and waiting patiently for Mozilla to address it, w/out any success at all - obviously. And, no, the answers are NOT helpful to me!
I understand many people have no interest in bookmarks but clearly lots of people still use them. If you're going to have the feature that purports to sort bookmarks, for pete's sake, make it work. I'd think it would be an embarrassment to have a part of your program malfunction for so long. I mean, what are you folks? IE!?! Why don't you just ask someone to spend a couple days addressing the issue and get it straightened out? (Clearly i care enough about it but I don't code, so… I'm useless.)
For the record, a user shouldn't have to individually sort each folder within their Bookmarks folder. One should be able to pick an option that would apply to all folders. Sure, leave the ability to sort individually but add an "apply to all" feature to the mother folder. Then, find a way to have it automatically maintain that status, whatever is selected. Doesn't sound like that difficult a task, given all the other great things you guys and girls do all the time! That's my ¢.
By the way, I'm using a MB Pro 4,1 (early 2008), OS 10.6.8, and Firefox 19.0 beta. Thanks for listening to my bitching.

How do I sort ALL my bookmarks into alphabetical order with ONE CLICK?

This functionality does not - nor has ever existed in any version of Firefox. (as far as I remember)
This question has been asked multiple times - and the answer is usually incomplete or too time consuming (especially for those of us who have over THREE THOUSAND bookmarks separated in hundreds of folders)
The only decent answer - used to be - to install an addon called SortPlaces: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/9275 - though for some reason the developer was offended by those in control of Mozilla and has pulled all of his addons from every site that is easily accessible - the newest version of firefox has broken this add on - and Firefox has a very useless sorting system. --
Sorting your bookmarks - one folder at a time - using a right click option - that only works when you 'view -toolbars-bookmarks' (or when you right click within the bookmark menu system) is a pitiful system -
Why can't you sort it when in 'bookmarks - show all bookmarks' ?? (well you CAN sort it there - but it will revert back to its un sorted form upon closing the interface)
Why can't you export it into a json - or html - then sort using a text editor - or some other program - then re import?
With the promotion of your online bookmark sync system you would think that something as simple as SORTING would have been covered...
Other topics comparable - with answers that are not valid:
1 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/760184
cor-el suggested right clicking each folder individually - or using the sourtplaces addon (which is no longer available)
2 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/837928?as=aaq
various people suggest using the sort places add on.
3 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/752997?as=aaq
SortPlaces is mentioned again - along with a link that looks REALLY OFFICIAL - and that link also suggests using the SortPlaces - the link says its not available at mozilla but can be found elsewhere -- but the latest firefox has broken it - so its useless now...

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sorting_bookmarks_alphabetically
Not sure what happened with the developer of Sortspaces - I never used any of his addons or had any dealings with him - but he is certainly unhappy with the folks behind Firefox.
http://www.andyhalford.com/
and HOORAY for Bookmark Duplicate Detector 1.1.1 https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bookmark-duplicate-detector/?src=search (helped me get rid of over 700 duplicate bookmarks - got me down to 3400 total; the auto remove all does not work with firefox14 but the rest of it works fine- I just had to manually push delete over and over again for a few hours...)
- and the checkCompatibility 1.3 that allows me to load out of date add ons: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/checkcompatibility/
The CheckCompatibility allowed me to install the Sort Bookmarks add on - and it looks perfect - but will not properly function...
I hope my post helps others who are trying to sort their bookmarks - and I hope someone has an answer for some of my questions - preferably the title question... lol

Is it possible to sort Mac Mail Rules into alphabetical order? I have in excess of 50 rules and everytime I want to add to a rule, such as "delete incoming" I have to go through the entire list to find it.

Is it possible to sort Mac Mail Rules into alphabetical order? I have in excess of 50 rules and everytime I want to add or amend a rule, such as "delete incoming" I have to go through the entire list to find it. I have tried clicking on the heading "Description" but it does not sort. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that use CMAK to configure split tunneling on VPN clients, traffic to specified devices can be routed via their own default gateway.
If the manually added route entries all have default metric and interface, clients will select one by the default routing rule, can’t select one of them according to clients’ own conditions. So, I am afraid that CMAK can’t implement the function which you need.
A blog described about How to configure split tunneling on VPN clients using CMAK, for your reference:

HT4191 how can i sort my iphone notes in alphabetical order?

I synced my MS Outlook notes through iTunes onto my iPhone 4S. The notes were in alphabetical order on my computer, but now they are in creation date order on the iPhone, making them almost useless (the notes contain subject-based information). Is there any way I can sort them into alphabetical order? Settings does not seem to have this ability. Alternatively, is there an app I can get that will offer sort options/functionality for my notes on the iPhone? Thank you all!

I played with "Reminders" app. It allows sorting (as you do for aligning cities in your weather app). And u have the option to choose a time to be notified/reminded to view it. Reminders have titles, then u can list related items under ea title as sub topics; these subs can later be moved to a NEW "title" if you need to subdivide (e.g., if a title is "To Do" but your list gets long and you want to break down the To Do list into "Shop" & "Chores"). This is done by tapping "details" then "list" when you're on the To Do page.

How can I sort the my podcasts in alphabetical order?

After the update to iTunes 11.1 my podcasts are all in chaotic order. I can't find anything anymore.
Even podcasts with nearly the same name are not in the same place.
Example: Windows Weekly (hi) isn't followed by Windows Weekly (mp3)
Where or how can I change the sort order ?

Although the original post is a few weeks old, I suspect that many people are still having the same issue.
I'm using the List view (the old view), which presents the Podcasts in the Programme-name alphabetical order:

How can I permanantly sort my bookmarks into alphabetical order?

I can sort my bookmarks via Bookmarks + Organize Bookmarks + Views + Sort, but not permanently. That is, when I subsequently look at my bookmarks, they are arranged in their original unsorted order. What must I do to keep them permanently sorted alphabetically?

For ed-meister.
Thanks a bunch. That was easy. But now I am sooooo embarrassed for not thinking about trying that right-click-on-the-bookmarks-folder trick. Duh!

How do I sort all of my photos alphabetically by title?

I need to be able to sort my photos by title. This is critical to my business. I can't find a way to do that. It appears that Photos automatically sorts by date which is problematical when I have 10,000 photos.
I want to be able to sort by:
title
date
rating
keyword
location
All of those, not just one or two or those sorting options.
I guess it is too much to ask to have second level options for sorting as well; ie. alphabetically by title and then within that by date (or rating).

Photos doesn't offer those sorting options. In nearly all modes photos can only be sorted by Date, either Date Added or EXIF Capture Date. In albums you can sort by date or manually.
The only time I've found the sort by title available is in a folder of albums and it only applies to the sorting of the albums.
I would go back to iPhoto for now. Add keywords to help in identifying photos as well as titles and descriptions. Then when iPhoto isn't compatible with the system anymore you can migrate to Photos and have the keywords and description to help search and arrange in groups in albums.
If your photos are critical to your business I'd look into one of the professional DAM (digital asset management) apps that can sort by any feature you can think of. One such app is Media Pro 1. I use it as my primary DAM and iPhoto for special projects like books, cards, calendars, slideshows.
You can learn about other DAM apps at The DAM Forum.

How can I move all my bookmarks from different Firefox profiles into one area to organize them and then place them into the different Firefox profiles?

How can I move all my bookmarks from different Firefox profiles (would like to move whole bookmark folders at once if possible) into one area to organize them and then place them into the different Firefox profiles? This is all under one window user account, I am using windows 8.1. Even if you have information on how to do it on a different windows, it may still be helpful. Thanks for any input you have.

Just a note about the difference between these two things:
* "export" and "import" use an ancient HTML document format that all browsers can understand. When you import bookmarks, Firefox may place them into an Imported Bookmarks folder, or into Unsorted Bookmarks. This does not displace existing bookmarks, and Firefox does not automatically remove duplicates.
* "backup" and "restore" use a more comprehensive JSON data file, which contains extra information about your bookmarks (such as tags) not contained in the traditional export file. HOWEVER, a restore completely replaces all existing bookmarks, so the restore feature cannot be used to merge in a set of additional bookmarks.
Related support articles:
* [[Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file to back up or transfer bookmarks]]
* [[Import Bookmarks from a HTML file]]
* [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]
Some users find the disk-based Windows Favorites folder a convenient way to organize bookmarks. If you do, too, and you do not need to preserve tags on your bookmarks, you could export each profile's bookmarks to HTML and import them all into IE11. Organize them in the Windows Favorites folder, then export from IE11 to HTML and import that file into each Firefox profile. See: [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/add-view-organize-favorites].

How do you sort the safari "Bookmarks Bar" bookmarks

how do you sort the safari "Bookmarks Bar" bookmarks

Here is the workaround for sorting your bookmarks - you don't have to do it manually as suggested in the previous answer here. This is from a 2006 page at Hints.Macworld.com
"One thing that bugs me is that there is no option in Safari to alphabetize bookmarks. I had a crazy idea about how to accomplish this, and it seems to work. Hopefully I'm not missing something more obvious.
What I did was open the Bookmarks window (Bookmarks: Show All Bookmarks), put the links I wanted to alphabetize into a folder, and then dragged that folder into the Finder. The Finder alphabetizes the bookmarks; you can then just drag the folder back into the Bookmarks window. You probably have to set the Finder to arrange files by name before it will work. Hope this helps!
[robg adds: When you drag the folder back, you'll now have two folders, the original and the sorted one. Just delete the original, and you're set. You can also do this without first creating a Safari folder. Just select all the bookmarks to be alphabetized, drag them into a new folder in the Finder, open that folder (make sure it's set to sort by name or use column view), then drag the now-sorted bookmarks back into Safari's Bookmarks window. Again, you'll have duplicates, so just delete the originals (which will be grouped above the newly-placed list). I wonder if any of this is scriptable...]"
If you're like me and you like to keep all of your bookmarks in folders in the Bookmarks bar, then from the Bookmarks window you would open the Bookmarks Bar in a window of its own before doing the above.
