Rearranging bookmark folders

Trying to rearrange bookmark folders in safari, but dragging does not work & sorting seems to only do the individual bookmarks within a folder. So what works?

Safari bookmark FOLDER organization I simply want to rearrange my bookmark folders so they appear in alphabetical order (just to be clear I am not referring to the actual bookmarks, but folders that I have created). I have tried clicking on and dragging a folder to another location, but it becomes a subfolder! I have looked on the web, but the only answers I find are for sorting actual bookmarks. Any ideas?

in safari resort entire bookmark list In safari how do I sort entire bookmark list. The instructions only tell me how to sort bookmarks within a bookmark folder. After creating a new bookmark folder, it is at the bottom. I know that I can manually move it, but can I sort all bookmark folders alphabetically? Thanks

Bookmark Troubleshooting At Apple's suggestion I'm asking this question again.. hoping for some help... I'm trying to organise a mountain of bookmarks, but can't reposition the folders - i.e. I have 20 numerical folders that I want to organise numerically.. Simple you would think... I've tried drag and drop in the bookmarks bar and I've tried the same in 'Edit bookmarks' but each time Safari simply drops the folder inside the nearest adjacent folder, rather than BETWEEN the two other folders. Then if I drag it out, safari drops it inside the next nearest closed folder and so on... Is there something I'm missing, or a method of moving them to a position between two other folders, rather than inside another closed folder? Thanks
