Sorry, one other observation. My bookmacster file (bookmarkshelf) does not stay open or active. I run it using import/export and it closes. Therefore, sorting will not happen on the fly. Is there a setting to keep it running?
I've never seen a Bookmarkshelf window close by itself, unless I did something to make BookMacster crash, but then Mac OS X would present one of those nasty
Application has unexpectedly quit dialogs.
There is a setting to make sorting happen automatically.
• Near the top of the window is a row of tabs. Click the tab:
Settings, then
Agents. You will see a little picture with 4 checkboxes.
• Switch on the first checkbox,
Import changes from Clieints.
• A warning will appear. Click button
Pause.
• Switch on the second checkbox,
Sort (Alphabetize).
• Switch on the third checkbox,
Export Results to Clients.
• Click the tab
Open/Save.
• Make sure that all checkboxes are OFF except the top one,
Automatically open this document when BookMacster launches.• Click the tab
Content.
• In the toolbar, the
Syncing tool has a red exclamation point in it. Click it.
• The same warning you saw before will appear. Read what happens if you click
Export, and if you agree that all is OK, click the
Export button.
• Quit BookMacster.
From then on, your Safari bookmarks will be sorted (alphabetized) silently, within 6 minutes after you make a change. 7 minutes if iCloud - Safari is switched on in System Preferences. Launch BookMacster only if you want to do major bookmarks reoganization or change settings.
