Hi,

I would like to ask, "is there a way to save my Bookmarks in alphabetical order"? It's so difficult to look for information I have saved in them because I have to search through the entire list of bookmarks (usually more than once) to find the one I'm looking for. It would be so much easier if they were in alphabetical order. Is there a way to save them this way or manually put them in alphabetical order?

Hi Laurie, on your laptop, you can list your bookmark folders using either the Bookmarks Sidebar or the Library window. The context menu for a folder has a "Sort by Name" option that will alphabetize its contents. I haven't tried using it on Mobile Bookmarks, but there should be a Mobile Bookmarks category listed below your laptop bookmarks in the Sidebar or Library.

Hi

At the moment this is not possible, although it may be included in a future update.

In the meantime, if you have your bookmarks syncced with a desktop copy of Firefox through a Firefox Account, you can sort them in alpha order in Firefox and they will sync across.

I hope this helps.

Hi,

Would you please explain this process in more detail? Also, how do I sort my bookmarks in alpha order? Is this done on my laptop or my android?

Thank you for your time and for your help. I appreciate both.
