Vista - Arranging Favorites

Arranging Favorites

I was discussing this with someone in Windows XP Newgroup and found that
"Arrange - Favorites" should be updated.

There is only one option to sort Favorites and i.e. "Sort by Name" even in
Internet Explorer 7. There should be more categories to Arrange - Favorites
like by Date - Modified or Created.

Problem is: if once the Favorites Arranged by name then there is no going
back. However, you can put each and every favorite on your desire location by
it is a lot of time consuming and what if you have thousand of Favorites.

Comments will be appreciated.

Re: Arranging Favorites

I don't use favorites because I find it much more efficient in Win XP to
just use folders and use Show in Groups to make files and folders
retrievable. Vista has this type explorer folder organization, and it is
even more detailed and robust but you have to look around for it, including
using a right click of the icon on the lower left corner of an explorer
folder where the folder files or folders within that particular folder are
labled when they are highlighted.

Two apps that may really please you if you are dedictated to using Favorites
are Favorites Home Page and FAves to Go. You can search engine for them.
Kelly's XP still has a free download for one of them, and you are able to
bring your favorites up in less than a second on a web page and color the
background and a link.

You could then drag the icon at the upper left of that web page and have a
copy of all your faves on a web page in multiple locations or folders or
wherever on your HD, partitions, drives, etc.

These work in Vista.

CH

PC Mag also sells it for $25 bucks.

Re: Arranging Favorites

It's probably too late to make a difference, after all, Vista and IE7 are
both in production now (though I don't give the WMP product group the same
consideration because WMP 11 just plain sucks), but I am curious. How would
you suggest they implement a manual sort that is less time consuming?

RE: Arranging Favorites

Ok! I give you an example. A person has more than 2000 Favorites and he like
to Sort them by Date. He want to view all of his favorite as from recently
added to next one. The problem is, there is no such option. Only one type
sorting available is "Sort by Name" and if by mistake someone once sort them
by name then there is no looking back. Even if you open the Favorite folder
and then sort them by date or any other type then Windows still shows them
Name wise in Internet Explorer.

I know that there could be some Favorite Organizer programs but what about
Windows? Do we have to use third party programs to do those little tasks.

Moreover, if you have any program name which can sort Favorites by date and
show them exact in IE then let me know.

Waiting for your responses.

Re: Arranging Favorites

Raj--

That was my point. The Fav Home Page is interesting in that it makes all
the faves hyperlihnks but you don't need a 3rd party solution. I really
think this is psychological because people kind of grew up on book marks
with Ntscape and Favorites with IE but the truth is no matter how fast your
box is, favorites take a lot longer if you have a lot of them. Windows
Explorer in XP or in Vista has exactly the orginazational features you just
asked for.

Have you put Explorer through all its possible paces? Right click the icon
on the lower left of the folder. Once you've decided on your categories
like Name, Date, Modified and there are over 120 to choose from, you can
click to the right of the category and organize by group. That gives you
all the retrievability you could need.

Re: Arranging Favorites

Raj--

Sorry for mispelling organizational and I do believe you meant Windows
Explorer files and folders not IE.

You can easily sort by date for files and folders. If you want to sort
"favorites" (IE) then simply drag the "e" from the address bar of a
particular favorite site into a folder named anything you want, and then use
the feature to sort by date or any criteria you want.

Re: Arranging Favorites

What icon you are referring to? Please explain in depth and will this method
work for IE too.

My question is simple:

Can Favorites be organized by date within Internet Explorer? Not in Favorite
folder in Windows Explorer.

Hope to have a soon reply from you.

Re: Arranging Favorites

Raj--

What I meant to say to be clear is that I find it much easier wanting to get
the same organization you want, to forget Favorites. I'm trying to get you
to take any web page that you want to "bookmark" as a "favorite" or "save as
a favorite" and get it into a Windows Explorer folder. Once you do that you
can get exactly the kind of organization you want. If you put any number of
shortcuts into a Windows Explorer folder, then they become subject to
Sorting by literally any of over 120 categories, including by name, by last
modified, by date, etc. and you can see the categories by right clicking the
icon in the lower left of the Vista Explorer folder, and I want you to focus
on this menu

1) Right click the icon which could be a generic folder icon if you haven't
modified it at the lower left of the Windows Explorer folder
2) A Right click context menu will pop up and the 2nd itme on the list will
be SORT BY and at the bottom of that slide out menu will be the category
sort by MORE. Click on more and you'll see a list of categories that can be
included at the top of the explorer folder and there are more than 120 of
them.
3) Then once you have checked the ones you want and situated them at the top
of the folder as a category, you have your sort by date and this is exactly
what you asked for.

Keep in mind that you can get the shortcut to the particular page you want
as an IE favorite to put in the folder by simply left click mouse dragging
the small "e" from the IE address bar to the desktop or to the folder you
want.

I also do this with newsgroup posts that I want to save, dragging them out
of Win Mail (you don't need to copy just dragging copies, and this also
applies to any folders you want to put in another folder.

I hope this is been clear because this is exactly what you are wanting to
do.

Notice that once you get the category you have selected from SORT BY MORE
you can click on the right side of the category and you will get a pull
down and you can sort in any of the ways available in that pulldown. I use
group.

Re: Arranging Favorites

Raj--

I want you to open a windows explorer folder. Right click the
desktop>new>folder and make one.

1) Open up the folder by clicking it. At the ****lower left corner of the
folder is an ICON. I have included a .jpeg to illustrate this. There is
only ONE lower left corner of that window of the explorer folder and only
one icon there.

Right click that icon in the lower left corner and you'll see a category
second from top or that right click context menu that says "SORT BY" and I
want you to click MORE on the bottom of the menu that slides out when you
mouse over sort by.

2) Left clicking on MORE PROVIDES YOUR CATEGORIES and one of them can
certainly be date.

Then click to the right of Date for example once you have checked it and you
can sort in anyway you like.

Please refer to the .jpeg I've attached.

My point is that this will organize your files, other folders you want in
one folder, and shortcuts (which would have been favorites) in any given
Windows explorer folder.

Good luck,

CH

Re: Arranging Favorites

You are still not understanding what I want to do. I have a list of 2000
Favorites. I do know that I can organize them by date or by category or
anything I like in both Windows XP and Windows Vista.

The problem is this only work in Windows Explorer and they still remain
Sorted By Name under Internet Explorer - Favorite Menu.

Hope you understand this time what I want to do. If you have any idea
releated to this then let me know. Do not suggest about sorting the files in
Windows Explorer or Folders.
