It seems I’ve been immersed in “Favorite” frustration today. I was recently strong-armed into upgrading my Yahoo! Toolbar and the wonderfully efficient arrangement of favorite websites I had been using for quite awhile.
Now I’ve begun looking at other options for managing my internet favorites. I’m nowhere close to relying on the bookmarks being stored locally on my machine. In trying to organize and import what I’ve got out of one location and into IE so I can then export to another location, quickly alphabetizing is helpful. Sure you can click “Sort by Name”, but sometimes you just want to wipe things clean at the lowest common denominator and this little tip from PC Magazine allows you to do just that.
IE Favorites in Alphabetical Order
Search the web for old versions of the Yahoo toolbar. They can be found. search for ytb_6.3.1.1_pub_us_setup_.exe, and don’t forget to uninstall the 7.x version. Great part is, when you re-install the 6.x version, you get your bookmarks back exactly they way you had them!
