I have downloaded the latest version of Mozilla Firefox this morning, but I notice that the folders in my bookmarks are not in alphabetical order. I am a crafter so I do need them in order. Can you please tell me how to do this. If this cannot be done, can you please tell me how to reinstall my old version of Mozilla Firefox on my computer. Your help would be very much appreciated.

I am using Firefox 4.0.1 and this works for me. To sort Bookmark folders: Click on 'Bookmarks' on the Toolbar, right click on 'bookmark this page' and select 'sort by name' To sort Bookmarks within a Folder: Click on 'Bookmarks' on the Toolbar, right click on the selected bookmark folder and select 'sort by name'

Please state what version you are using just for clarification. On the toolbar Click on Help and select About Firefox to locate this info.

Hey, Toad-Hall, That was brilliant! Thanks for the tip! I never would have figured that out on my own. I've been sorting them manually, but as I have so many now, it takes forever. I'm glad there was a way to finally make it work. I've tried other ways to no avail.
