Bookmarks sidepane in Safari?

Is it possible to get a listing of bookmarks to appear on the side of the browser window like in Firefox or (even) Internet Explorer? In Firefox you can make the bar appear with cmd-b.

HI,
Try Option + Command + B
Or click the Bookmarks icon top left side of Safari window.

We have a new iPad Mini. I cannot save a new Bookmark. In Safari, I go to "Share" and select "Add a Bookmark" yet when I click on the Bookmarks icon, my saved Bookmark is not there. Am I doing something wrong?

We have a new iPad Mini, and I'm having inconsistent results using Bookmarks in the Safari icon.
For a long time, on the iPad, I could only see five items under the Bookmark icons and the Bookmarks Bar was empty.
Occasionally, in Safari, the iPad would pick up and display all of the Bookmarks from the Safari browser on my iMac.
Other times, there are only a bare few Bookmarks available on the iPad, the Bookmarks Bar goes away and I cannot save a new Bookmark. It looks like I can save one, but I cannot find it after allegedly saving.
Then, all of the Bookmarks will come back and I can save a new Bookmark again. We can't figure out why all of the Bookmarks will show and then they won't.
I want to think this involves iCloud some way, but for right now, I'm stumped. Perhaps we're just too inexperienced and haven't come around the learning curve yet.
Thanks for any help.

No, I see the three areas at the bottom of the Bookmark area that you refer to, but that also highlights an issue. When I want to save a story to my Reading List and click on Share then "Add to Reading List" then go back to look at what is stored in the Reading List, my recently-saved item is not there.
I looked thru the History tab and the Reading List tab and have been in the Bookmark tab. But even when I Save a Bookmark, that newly-saved Bookmark does not show up in the Bookmark area.
But then again, the next day (and actually just in the last half-hour) all of the functionality came back. When I look at the Bookmarks, suddenly, again, all of the Bookmarks that are on my Safari browser on my iMac are now there, and I can now Save a Bookmark.
It keeps coming in and out and that is what is driving me a little nuts.
Thanks.

Safari 4 will not import bookmarks saved with Safari 3.2.3!

Safari 4.0 (Build 530.17) for Windows DOES NOT correctly import bookmarks saved with Safari 3.2.3 for Windows!! There are no links!! But it does import the folders.
For example if I open the bookmarks in Safari, it looks like an HTML file. It says this:
Games
http://www.romnation.net/srv/emulators/mame.html
http://www.romnation.net/srv/download/rom/25758/mame/Tron-set-1.html
and many more folder categories....
But when I go to the File Menu and choose "Import bookmarks..." it will only import the Folder names, such as "Games" but NOT the web links.
It does not import these:
http://www.romnation.net/srv/emulators/mame.html
http://www.romnation.net/srv/download/rom/25758/mame/Tron-set-1.html

its fixed now

I am unable to add a bookmark to a Safari page on my iPhone 4.

I am unable to add a bookmark to a Safari page on my iPhone 4. The " " does not appear, so that I can do so. Is there a fix?

My apology for the typo. The plus sign "+" was supposed to be in the quotes in the second sentence.

HT5372 no bookmarks tab in Safari help

I'm new to this but I can't see the bookmark tab in safari therefore I can't bookmark any web pages. Please help .

Three ways; tap the open flat book you get bookmarks it says favorites, history,etc. Scroll down that list, if your bookmark isn't listed by flicking the list up. Next, add the bookmark as favorite and you get a new icon on your Safari page. Last you can add favorites bar just under the URL box.

Bookmarks in iPad Safari

My bookmark icon in safari actually shows history and there is no "+" sign on my toolbar. What's wrong?

The same "Bookmarks" button shows either Bookmarks or History.
If you are seeing the History, click the "Bookmarks" button to the left of "History" in the menu title and it will switch to Bookmarks.
If you are seeing the Bookmarks and want to see the History, click the top item, the History folder to see that.
History is like a folder under the Bookmarks. To move back to Bookmarks you move "back" to them.

Today all my Bookmarks disapeared from Safari, when i checked my iphone they were there and then went away the same happened on my ipad. Any ideas on how to restore?

Today all my BookMarks disappeared in Safari, when I checked my iphone I watched them disappear from there and the same on my iPad. I then thought why not check my Parallels side and Windows Explorer. They were there for a few seconds and then also gone. Any ideas on how to restore and stop this from happening again? My iCloud setting are set for Safari sync.

Then you have misunderstood what iCloud is.
First. It is not a back-up service. It is a sync service.
That distinction is very import. A back-up service would have backed-up your bookmarks but iCloud's function is to synchronize your data, in this case your bookmarks, to all your devices. A backup service, by it's very nature, would allow you to roll back to a previous version of your data or file. No such roll back function is present in iCloud's services.
For example, if you add a bookmark to Safari on your Mac that same bookmark will be added to all your other devices that are connected to your iCloud account. Also, if you delete a bookmark it will be deleted from all those devices.
iCloud does not make a distinction between deleting one or all of your bookmarks and it will do the same to all your devices. It does not know that was not your intention. That is why it is very important to have Backups and Apple makes it very easy using Time Machine and a simple hard drive connected to a computer.
Let's see if your bookmarks have actually been deleted or if there is another problem.
Your bookmarks are stored in a .plist file the following directory, ~/library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist
To get to that directory go to the Finder, select the Go to Folder… menu item in the Go menu and enter ~/library/Safari/ in the field provided. There you will find the Bookmarks.plist file.
Select it and hit the space bar on your keyboard to see a preview of the files content. Does it still contain references to your bookmarks? If it does still contain references to your bookmarks then something else is going on and we'll have to find a different solution.

I did an upgrade and now i can't get the bookmarks back in Safari like they used to be. How can I get contacts back in the bookmarks. Also, why does Apple always change everything? Very frustrating.

Unforunately, not that I know of.

Firefox bookmarks to replace Safari bookmarks, complete instructions

For all of us dummies out there : ]
Here are the complete instructions to get your Firefox bookmarks into Safari, and to get them to replace the ones you have in Safari. This is useful for people who, on their computer, do not use Safari, and only use Firefox, but need their Firefox bookmarks easily accessible on their phone (without having to use the Firefox Home App). This will allow your Firefox bookmarks to get synched onto your iPhone's Safari App. Only thing I haven't figured out is how to automatically make this happen, so Safari bookmarks continuously update with changes in the Firefox bookmarks.
Here's a link on how to export Firefox bookmarks to your computer, and then import them into Safari:
http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/export-bookmarks-safari
The only thing missing in that link is: How do we now get our bookmarks from Firefox to replace the ones in Safari? We want our Bookmark Toolbar in Safari to be the same as the one in Firefox, and the Bookmarks Menu as well.
The answer is straightforward, a slight pain in the butt, but simple. In Safari:
1. click Bookmarks/Show All Bookmarks
2. In Sidebar in Safari window, click on Bookmarks Bar. All bookmarks in Bookmarks Bar will be listed to the right.
3. Select all of the bookmarks shown, and then hit Delete on your keyboard.
4. In Sidebar, click on Bookmarks Menu. All Bookmark Menu items will be listed to the right.
5. Select all of the bookmarks shown, then Delete.
6. In Sidebar, click on your just-imported-from-Firefox imported bookmarks. It should be listed as "Import" with a date.
7. In window, find Bookmark Toolbar (you will need to scroll way down the list past regular bookmarks), and click its arrow to open the list of bookmarks below it.
8. Select all those bookmarks below the arrow, and drag them into the sidebar, and drop them on top of the Bookmarks Bar item.
9. In Sidebar, again click on your just-imported-from-Firefox imported bookmarks.
10. In window, you will see all the other bookmarks.
11. Select all those bookmarks, and drag them into the sidebar, on top of the Bookmarks Bar item.
Now all your Firefox bookmarks are in Safari in the same places. When you sync your iPhone, all those bookmarks will be available in the Safari App.

Anyone with assistance for this question? It would be much appreciated!
Thanks!

How can I alphabetize the bookmarks in my Safari bookmarks toolbar?

Did you try creating a folder of your bookmarks then drag the folder to your Desktop.
The Finder will automatically alphabetize the folder content.

It seems that this device is initiating the tunnel, it sends IKE MM1 but it never receives a response from the peer.

Check if the peer is reachable, if the ISP (yours or the peer's) is not blocking UDP500, if the peer has IKE enabled, ... run debugs on the peer to see if it receives MM1 and why it does not respond...
