Existing users, 
Many .plist files are now binary encoded, rather than the tradional XML format. SafariSorter doesn't understand the new binary format. You'll need to use the PLUTIL command in the TERMINAL app for change the format of the bookmarks.plist file from binary to XML, and then back again after SafariSorter has done its work.
In TERMINAL, type 'man plutil' for more info.
'plutil -convert xml1 bookmarks.plist', then use SafariSorter, then 'plutil -convert binary1 bookmarks.plist'. Cheers, Al
SafariSorter
alphabetizes Safari bookmarks, manages duplicates

You need to have the 'bookmarks.plist' file in your USER DIRECTORY. It did work this way for me.That was a great great tip, by the way. Thanxxxxx
