I’;ve had Safari on my Mac since I got it, but never really used it till now. I imported all my bookmarks from IE to Safari, but they didn’t keep the order they were in. I have a LOT of bookmarks and I like to keep them alphabetized. Is there a way to automatically arrange bookmarks in alphabetical order in Safari? I looked all over but I can’t seem to find a command that will do it. I don’t want to have to click and drag each bookmark into place.

It looks like [URL Manager Pro](http://www.url-manager.com/) can do what you want. It’s US$25, but has several nice features for people with lots of bookmarks. There’s a free demo version you can check out.

You could also try [SafariSorter](http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/22199&page=3). It seems like the developer is only looking for donations.

BTW, it takes a count of your bookmarks and I have 305. :eek:
