Adding new bookmarks in Safari

Whenever I add a bookmark to the "bookmarks bar" folder it always adds the website to the top of the list, which ruins the order in which my "hot keys" (command + 1, command + 2, ect. ect.) While this is a very quick fix of just dragging the newly added website to the bottom of the list, is there anything I could enter into terminal which would just automatically add the websites to the bottom of the list? This is just a minor inconvenience which logically seems like a quick fix. Any help would be great

I can not delete my history and adding new bookmarks. Upgrading to later Firefox versions and/or re-installing didn't help. The address bar still shows the web addresses of old and whenever I make new bookmarks, it's always gone as if it was never made.

Upgrading to later Firefox versions and/or re-installing didn't rectify it either.
The address bar still shows the web addresses of old and whenever I make new bookmarks, it's always gone as if it was never made.
Also, I have noticed that every once in awhile you can not close tabs you've opened, either by pushing on the X button and/or clicking on the mouse to close it. Although closing the window and opening it again (without closing the Firefox application) seemed to rectify the problem in the short term, it's becoming quite annoying.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== the Firefox is being used

I think I have a solution.
First, download the add-on SQManager. This should be included with FireFox, it is really good.
Look for the file '''moz_hosts''' in the folder '''places.sqlite'''.
Don't delete the file, just delete the information in the file. My file has over 3600 websites, which go back years!! I did not know they were there, but I was frustrated about not being able to get rid of them. They popped up every time I used the address bar. Clearing my history would not get rid of them.
This is where they are stored!! I found that by deleting the pesky web site from '''moz_hosts''', it does not appear in my address bar anymore!!!
I think that if I just delete all the websites in moz_hosts....
Wa-la...History Gone!!!
As long as you don't delete the file, just empty it, FireFox won't know the difference. It will just keep adding websites to it until you empty it again.
Why running "clear recent history" doesn't do this, I don't know. You are doing manually what "clear recent history" is not doing.
Please tell me if you see any flaw in this.

HT2101 My iPad won't accept new bookmarks in safari.

My iPad won't accept new bookmarks in safari.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

Cant add new new bookmark in Safari

Quitting Safari after adding a new bookmark results in losing the bookmark when I reopen Safari. Quitting Safari after deleting a bookmark results in the deleted bookmark reappearing when I reopen Safari. Any suggestions for fixing this problem. This problem does not occur if I close but do not quit Safari.
OS is 10.7.4
Safari 5.1.7
2.5.3 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo MacMini
4GB Memory

Quit Safari. Disable bookmark synchronization, if applicable.
Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Go to Folder… from the Finder menu bar. Copy the following line into the text box that opens, then press return:
~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist
Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the Finder window open. Relaunch Safari. Select File ▹ Import Bookmarks from the Safari menu bar. Import from the bookmarks file you moved to the Desktop. Test. If Safari now performs normally, you can delete the old bookmarks file. Otherwise, quit Safari again and put back the file you moved, replacing the newer one with the same name. Close the Finder window and post again.

Adding a bookmark in Safari ios7?

I cannot add a bookmark in Safari. I updated to iOS 7.0.2 a week ago. When I try to use the bookmark button (box with an upward arrow) Safari freezes and I have to close it. I looked at settings for software and it said I am up to date. All of my existing bookmarks are there, but I cannot add any new ones. I don't know what else to do. Any ideas?

Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data. Now close Safari.
To close an app - Drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to Safari and then swipe "up" on the Safari thumbnail to close it. Now reboot the iPad.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
Now see if you can add bookmarks without Safari freezing.

Whenever I add a new bookmark into Safari, it disappear the next time I launch it.

I am now using Mavericks. However, whenever I save a bookmark in Safari, it does not appear in Safari (the bar above the page). I have reinstalled OS X but it's not helpful. How can I solve this?

You want to transfer purchases from the iPod to your iTunes account.
Connect the device to iTunes but do not sync.
Select File > Transfer Purchases.
This will copy the content purchased via iTunes on the iPod to your iTunes account.

Adding new bookmark does not save

In my book, every time I add a new bookmark and do pretty much any other operation, the bookmark disappears. If I switch documents, or if I syncnronized documents, or try to print the book, when I go back to the document where I created the bookmakr the newly created bookmark is gone. Any ideas what is wrong?

What happens if you save the document after creating the bookmark, but before you do anything else?
Does it only happen on one document in your book? If so that document might need a cleanup: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/526991

Safari crashing when adding new bookmarks.

Ive been having an issue with my iMac ( Its a 21.5-inch, late 2009) Yesterday evening while using Safari it crashed when i tried to add a new site to the bookmarks menu. At first i didn't think anything of it and tried to do it again, the same thing happened. Its been doing it every time i try to do it no matter what site i go onto but nothing else seems to be affected.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

Can't delete or save new bookmarks in safari

I am running OS X 10.8.2 and safari version 6.0.2.
Safari is not allowing me to delete current bookmarks or save any new ones. Manually deleting them from the bookmark page does nothing once I close out and reopen safari. Same goes with saving new ones. I attempted to look at similar threads to find a suggestion and what I found was the advice given to those questions can't be applied to this situation. Mainly because the file path they suggested to go doesn't exist on mine. Any help will much appreciated.

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. You can demote it back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:20 ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ 2> /dev/null
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word, all lower case, with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’renot going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Can't create new bookmarks in safari. Lost all my existing book marks

Lost all bookmarks, cannot create new ones.

Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist
Quit Safari.
Select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the Finder menu bar. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
A folder window should open with a file named "Bookmarks.plist" selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the folder open.
Relaunch Safari. It will open with the default set of bookmarks. Delete them all. Select
File ▹ Import from... (or Import Bookmarks...)
from the Safari menu bar. Import from the bookmarks file you moved to the Desktop. Arrange the bookmarks as you wish.
If Safari now performs normally, you can delete the old bookmarks file. Otherwise, quit Safari again and put back the file you moved, replacing the newer one with the same name. Close the Finder window and post your results.

I open FF and it logs into xmarks. The log in process freezes the browser and I must shut it via task mgr...reinstalled FF several times, haven't added new bookmarks in years so don't think it's overloaded w syncing that needs to happen

latest version of FF, fiddled with xmark controls, doesn't help. Not crashing out--freeze up, go into task mgr and close through end now msg that comes up. Sometimes I catch the "cancel" button (split second window of opportunity on that one) on xmarks and that'll let me in.

I had disabled ssh, thinking that maybe the high proc usage was making the system unstable. I successfully changed the password via AFP twice for one user on my machine. I had someone else do it and it immediately brought down the server. Same thing... I'm really at a loss as to what to do, can someone provide some insight? What logs can I look at for more information? Is there anyway to tell what's happening on the machine during these 10 minutes? The logs I've looked at show nothing.

During adding new bookmark or folder one or more of the existing bookmark folders are automatically renamed

it happens seldom but I saw this many times

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite
You should update to a more recent Firefox 3.5.x or 3.6x version.

Safari 4, Saving a new bookmark switches to a different window

When I add a new bookmark to Safari 4, the bookmark gets saved but I get switched from Safari to another window or program. For instance if I have Photoshop, Outlook, and Safari open, adding a bookmark will cause my focus to switch from Safari to Outlook or Photoshop. I then have to select Safari again to get it on top of my other windows. This did not happen with Safari 3. I have replicated these results on my Vista Ultimate machine with version 4 at work as well. Same problem. Last night I completely reinstalled Vista on my home computer thus having a totally fresh system. Same problem. Bug has been reported but I just want to know if anyone is having this issue.

Just for those who are interested, this is what cleared the "bookmark menu" trbl I had.
Open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Bookmarks, then reselect it.
Quit and relaunch Safari. Try a bookmark again.

I can't add Bookmarks on Safari

Safar don't update my bookmark list when I want to add a new bookmark.

Quit Safari.
Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari.
Move the cache.db file from the Safari folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari. Try adding a Bookmark.
If that didn't help, could be the preferences are corrupted ..
Go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
Quit then relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, move the .plist file to the Trash.
~ (Tilde) represents the Home folder.
For LIon: To find the Home folder in OS X Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and choose Go > Library

I recently changed from IE to Mozilla. I imported all my bookmarks to Mozilla but can't add new bookmarks to imported bookmarks. Can someone please help me?

I have used IE browser for many years and have collected hundreds of Bookmarks there. I recently changed over to Mozilla browser and imported all my Bookmarks to Mozilla from IE. The problem is whenever I try to add a new Bookmark to the Bookmarks I imported from IE it won't allow me to add new Bookmarks there. It only allows me to add a new Bookmark to Bookmarks Menu, Bookmarks Toolbar, Unsorted Bookmarks, or create a new folder. It doesn't give me an option of adding new Bookmarks to the Bookmarks I imported from IE. I would like to keep all my Bookmarks in order and not have to switch back and forth from new Mozilla Bookmarks and the Bookmarks I imported from IE. Can anyone help me with this problem? Thanks.

<b>NOTE: </b>You are using an outdated version of the Firefox program. For the best browsing experience, update to the most recent version.
Please, try the following:
# Press <code>Ctrl</code> + <code>Shift</code> + <code>B</code> when Firefox is open
# In the Bookmark Library, locate the folder containing your imported ''Internet Explorer'' bookmarks
# Select all of the imported bookmarks and <i>Cut</i> them
# Paste them into the <code>Bookmarks Toolbar</code>, <code>Bookmarks Menu</code> or <code>Unsorted Bookmarks</code> folders
Please report back with the results of the above solution.
Thank you for using Mozilla Firefox!
