Book Marks Safari

Hi
I need a small help with development of an application . I am developing an application which catches Bookmark files dragged and dropped from safari. Now when I try and catch the item dropped the dictionary returns
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<array>
<string>webloc</string>
</array>
</plist>
and no details of the web favourite dropped. I shall be thankful is some one could throw some light as to how to achieve this .

This can be achieved using the drag drop paste board type . This is AlbumListPasteBoard type .

  • I have safari in my iPad but bookmark is not working. I can not book mark any things.  How do I get back my bookmark working so that I can open the web page I have already booked marked.  Thank you for your answer

    I have iPad 2.
    The safari bookmark was working yesterday.  Today book mark is not working.  I can not book mark anything. 
    Did I do anything to prevent stopping bookmark to store?  Please help me how to get back working my bookmark.  Thank you.

    See if this works.
    Quit the Safari app completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    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.

  • Is there a way to get my book marks back into Safari from a TM backup?

    Hello fellow Mac users. Is there a way to "restore" my wife's book marks from an earlier TM backup in safari?
    My wife deleted a bunch of files on her MBP. I went back to an earlier days TM backup and restored things in her documents folder etc but when she went into Safari all of her book marks are gone. Is there a way to get them back from one of the TM back ups? There was also another user that was deleted. Can that be restored?
    Thanks Very Much!

    To get the Safari bookmarks back, you need to locate the 'booksmarks.plist' file which should be located in the username/library/safari folder and replace the same file in the same folder for the user you want the bookmarks for.
    As far as restoring a previous user, I'm not sure. It might be easier to just make a new one. You should still be able to get the files from the previous user from your Time Machine backup if that's what you intended. If you could restore a user, it would have to be by using Migration Assistant, although I couldn't say as to whether that would work.

  • Can you put book marks into Apple Configurator for Safari ?

    We would like to save time by adding book marked sites in Safari as we're imaging iPod Touch and iPads. Can this been done?

    No, but you can create web clips that appear as icons on the same page(s) as the Apps they have installed.  Clicking on one of those icons will tell the iPad to open Safari and go to that web page.

  • What files constitute Safari Book marks and other files

    Hi -- I recently installed a new internal Seagate 1TB SSHD drive into my MBP 15" Late 2011 to replace the OEM 500GB internal HD.  Did a clean install with OS X Recovery.  So far so good.  But I didn't transfer over the Safari settings.  (Though I have them on my backup drive -- that is I transferred all the system files to the external drive).  Would someone please let me know the names of the critical files for Safari settings (including book marks etc).  Also if you could tell me where these files actually reside (i.e. what folders, etc).  Thanks!

    Open the home folder on your backup and then Library/Safari/; all of the Safari database files for your user account are in it.

  • Book marks bar disappeared suddenly

    Hello,
    I am using Safari 5.1 on OS 10.6.8 and suddenly while opening a new window the book marks bar disappeard. I restarted the system but it is not coming back. In the safari preferences, the options for bookmarks bar and menu are enabled and in spite of that I cannot see it.
    Did any one have a similar problem or how can I debug it?
    Thanks,
    Gaurav.

    Sorry guys, false alarm. I must had some how pressed shift+command+B that removes bookmarks bar and there fore was unable to see it. Please ignore my question.

    You may have been using the old Multirow Bookmarks extension in Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions of Firefox, which wasn't updated for Firefox 4.0 and 5.0. This is a different version of that old extension, which adds a few new features. <br />

  • Adding to Book Marks

    Hi
    when i click the plus sign in safari to add to book marks it shows me all books marks and expand the tree so book marks
    and sub book marks all are shown and i need to scroll in long list, so is there a way to show the main book mark folders
    without expanding them, or even better to type and search for the book mark folder ?

    In Safari from the menu: Bookmarks>Show All Bookmarks. Arrange your bookmarks in folders with a topic or some sort of systematized logic.

  • Book mark icon in Adhoc query?

    Hi,
    There is an Adhoc query created by the end user.The book mark icon available is not working but the CONTEXT MENU on any of the values is producing the book mark properly.Can just any one help me to find the solution of this?
    Why BOOK MARK ICON is on

    Vasu,
    then there seems to be some issue with your ad-hoc template - was it modified in any way ? that could be causing this issue. If the temnplate was not modified then reactivate the same from business content and check.
    The ad-hoc template depends on your BI version. Which version of BI are you on ?

  • My Mac Book's Safari is locked down

    I clicked on a bad link on my mac book’s safari and a message pops up that says "Due To Trojan Virus Your Computer Windows Files Got corrupt,Error Code: Win32xepcj. Call System Administrator at: 1-800-786-0949." The message will not go away and I cannot access anything on safari even with restarting the computer. How do I get rid of the message and have access to safari again? Any help is appreciated.

    Hello, ousooner1011. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I understand that you are unable to use Safari due to this message that is meant specifically for a Windows machine.  I would recommend opening Safari and clearing all Safari data via the steps in the article below.

  • I can no longer organize my drop down book mark list ,from the toolbar in alphabetical order like I used to Why ?

    Used to, I could organize my drop down book mark list from the tool bar, in alphabetical order from A-Z by clicking on view, sort by, select . Now every time I add a new bookmark it goes to the bottom of my bookmark list in Unsorted bookmarks . I can go to the bookmarks and sort the menu in Alpha. order. However, when I go back and drop down the bookmark list from the tool bar, the new bookmarks are still in the Unsorted list at the bottom. The bookmark's menu may or not have them in assorted list. This occurred several updates back. Why can I no longer sort the drop down book marks list in A-Z alph. order? This is a major obstacle when trying to search for a particular bookmark that I have made in the not too distant past.

    That did solve my problem. Madperson Thank You Very Much!!!!! I'm not real literate on the mechanics of working computers even though I use them all the time. Basically I'm a point & click kinda guy and beyond that I'm pure novice! This is going to save me a lot of wasted time.

  • How do i move book marks from Winxp to Windows 7 Firefox V5.0 ?

    I'm trying to move my bookmarks from my old Windows XP system with Firefox 5.0 to my new Windows 7 system with Firefox 5.0. How do I move my book marks ? I have quite a few of them.
    Thanks,

    You need to export the Camino bookmarks to an HTML file, and then import that file into Firefox.
    # In Camino, on the '''File '''menu select '''Export Bookmarks'''
    # In the '''Format''' dropdown menu select '''HTML''' then click on the '''Export''' button
    # Import the HTML file into Firefox using the procedure in the [[importing Bookmarks from an HTML File]] article

  • Is there any way to determine if a link is a book mark or hyperlink in java script

    Is there any way to determine if a link is a book mark or hyperlink in java script
    Sub Problem:
    I am making an array of quads of all the hyperlinks in a document. I would like to automatically skip over all the bookmarks in the starting pages of a document and just get the links of the hyperlinks.
    Now I have to manually set the pages that contain bookmarks so they are not included in the array.
    Is there any way to determine if a link is a book mark or hyperlink in java script?
    It would help automate the conversion I need below
    John
    Main Problem:
    I have been working on converting a set of pdf files with 1000’s of hyperlinks like www.site.com\folder1\file1.pdf#page=10
    To jump to a local copy of the files with a relative type link
    ../folder1/file1.pdf and then go to the proper page.
    I have found that it can be done manually by changing the hyperlink to a javascript
    var otherDoc = app.openDoc('../folder1/file1.pdf', this);otherDoc.pageNum = 10 - 1;
    and setting each destination file with a disclose()=true;
    Based on the help so far that java script cannot access the hyperlink value in a link
    See: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1039908?tstart=60
    I have resorted to the following plan using acrobat javascript, an external keyboard macro recorder and excel in combination to get around the problem
    Four folder level acrobat javascripts with “buttons”
    One to get all the link quads in an array, in the pdf and report the total number
    The second creates a form field in the far corner of the first page and moves there.
    The third jumps to each link found by creating a form field just to the left of the link and zooms in so it can be selected by a “mouse click” from the keyboard macro recorder 
    The forth deletes the form field
    The keyboard macro recorder runs javascript 2 and then 3 then clicks on the link just to the right of the middle of the screen and uses keys to get to the advanced editing to get to edit the hyperlink .
    The hyperlink is then copied to excel where it is converted using string functions to the needed javascript text to be copied back.
    To the acrobat file into a java script (after deleting the hyperlink)
    Rinse/lather/repeat
    I have been able to convert about 150 links an hour.
    Better then hand typing, but not like having java access to the links.
    I am looking to improve the solution

    thanks for your help.
    I may have been confusing a "acrobat bookmark" and a bookmark in a word file that is converted to a pdf and ends up being a
    link of the type:
    "Go to a page in this document"
    which I do not want in my array vs
    a link of the action type:
    "Open a web link"
    Which I do want
    John
    My code, note how I have to skip pages with "Go to a page in this document" links depending on the document, I would like to use the same code for each document and skip over the "Go to a page in this document" links :
    global.ilinkindex = 1; 
    global.aLinkquads = [ [0, 1, 1, 0, 0],
           [0, 0, 0, 0, 0] ];
    function GetLinkArray()
    global.ilinkindex = 1;
    var iTotalLinks=0;
    // for ( var p = 0; p < this.numPages - 8 ; p++)                   // end before bookmarks for each page of the file x.pdf
    //  for ( var p = 0; p < this.numPages; p++)                     // for each page of the file
    for ( var p = 23; p < this.numPages; p++)                     // start after bookmarks for each page of the file y.pdf
      var cropbox = this.getPageBox("Crop", p);
      var alinksonpage = this.getLinks(p, cropbox);            // get array of links on page
      for ( var ll = 0; ll < alinksonpage.length; ll++)
       var linkquads = alinksonpage[ll].rect;     // get link Quads
       linkquads[4] = p;          // add page number to link Quads array
        global.aLinkquads[global.ilinkindex] = linkquads; // add quads to global link Quads array
        global.ilinkindex++;
    iTotalLinks = global.aLinkquads.length - 1;
    global.ilinkindex = 1;
    app.alert("Number of Links in Document is " + iTotalLinks );

    Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
    I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?

  • I had a folder that was a part of firefox in the book marks are called Recently Bookmarked. It has now disappeared and i would like to know how to get it back?

    This folder was not one I created, but it appeared to be a part of the bookmark area. It save all recently saved book marks and was called "Recently Bookmarked". I used this feature last night and this morning when I went to use fire fox, it is gone.
    I tried restarting Firefox and it still has not fixed the problem. My question is, How do I get this feature back or how do I create a folder where everything I book mark goes into the folder until I can sort the book marks into the proper folders? thank you for your help

    See:
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Restore+the+default+Smart+Bookmarks+Folders
    * "Recently Bookmarked" is a so called [[Smart Bookmarks folders|Smart Bookmark]] that shows the result of a place query in a list.
    * "Most Visited" and "Recently Bookmarked" and "Recent Tags" are examples of so called [[Smart Bookmarks folders|Smart Bookmarks folders]] and are not real existing folders.
    * Smart folders show a list created by a query of the places.sqlite database that stores bookmarks and history in Firefox.
    * Smart folder lists show a maximum of 10 entries by default.
    * Bookmarks and history items that show up in a smart folder list are stored elsewhere in another folder and any changes made are applied to the real bookmark or history item.
