Bookmarks synced, not showing in Safari

Hi. I bought a Macbook Air today and am trying to set up Safari. I have an iPad 2 and an iPhone 4S and the bookmarks from them should sync perfectly to the Macbook, but...there are issues. They synced, since, when I hit "Show All Bookmarks" in Safari, it shows they are on the notebook, but they don't show when I click Bookmarks from the menu at the top of Safari, which is where they're needed and conveinient. What am I doing wrong? Thanks
PS - I'm in the process of downloading Mountain Lion for it, but figure this might be an issue for 10.7.4 as much as 10.8.1, yet wanted to note that, too.

First, congratulations on your new MacBook Air!  I hope you enjoy it.
Here's an informative article on the subject you address.  Note (from the article) more is coming once iOS 6 comes out this fall.  I believe that includes the feature you're asking about.

  • Bidirectional bookmark sync not working...

    I have an 8GB iPod touch (firmware v1.1.3 with the new apps) and can't seem to get the bidirectional bookmark sync to work. I have a 20" Intel iMac (early 2006) running 10.5.1 with the latest software updates.
    I have some bookmarks that I've added to Safari on the iPod that don't show up on the Mac after a sync and a few that I've added to Safari on the Mac that don't show up on the iPod after a sync.
    I've tried everything (reset sync history in iSync, stop syncing bookmarks via the checkbox in iTunes and then syncing again, etc.) short of a restore on the iPod. I want to know if there is anything else I can try before I restore the iPod because I don't want to loose the bookmarks that I've added to the iPod.
    Anybody have any ideas/suggestions? Is there a way to backup the bookmarks on the iPod so that I can then re-import them into Safari on the Mac after a reset if I have to?
    TIA

    Can't help with your bidirectional bookmark syncing question but try this for backing up your touch's bookmarks.
    Export/backup all of your Safari/Internet Explorer bookmarks (depending on where you're syncing them from) and keep them is a safe place. This is your master bookmarks list. Then delete all bookmarks/folders from your browser. Now sync your bookmarks with the touch with the following iTunes settings:
    Under your touch's 'Info' tab, select the checkbox 'Sync bookmarks with Internet Explorer/Safari'.
    After syncing, your touch's bookmarks (and only those from your touch) will be synced to your browser. Now export/backup these bookmarks...these are your touch's bookmarks. Now you have a both a backup of your master bookmarks and your touch's bookmarks. When you want to sync/restore your touch's bookmarks back to the touch, delete all your PC browser's bookmarks and import the touch bookmarks:
    Under iTunes/your touch/'Info'/Web browser & Advanaced, select the checkboxes 'sync bookmarks with IE/Safari' and 'Replace information on this iPod: Bookmarks' and sync again.
    This will transfer your touch's bookmarks back to the touch. Now delete all bookmarks again from IE/Safari and re-import your master bookmarks. Note that after importing them back in, they will likely be in alphabetical order rather than the date added order.
    Also note that (at least in Windows) your browser needs to be open for bookmark syncing to take place.

  • How do I set up bookmarks sync to iCloud for Safari in Windows?

    The page http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455 shows iCloud Control Panel for Windows permitting bookmarks sync for Safari but when I run it it shows bookmarks sync for Internet Explorer. How do I set this up for Safari on Windows?

    I suggest you post your question on an MS Office forum since it's their software you're having issues with.

  • Bookmark sync not working with large set and maybe javascript bookmark bookmarklets??

    Bookmark sync via iCloud doesn't seem to work for me. I use Chrome as my primary browser but keep a huge set of bookmarks synced to Safari via Xmarks.
    Basically I either get no bookmarks on my iOS devices (iPhone 4 and iPad 1) or a huge number of repeated versions of 1Password's very large java bookmark.
    I've tested by deleting all my Safari bookmarks and starting with a clean Mac. When I do this everything works and changes on any device propagate to the others.
    As soon as I bring in my big bookmark set from Xmarks, it all breaks.
    Do I need to perform the bookmark clean up I've been putting off for a decade or so?

    To get pass the passcode lockscreen, recovery mode and restoring should help: iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    If the issue continues after updating and restoring your device, refer to this document.

  • Bookmark does not show in the bookmark list, but does in a search

    I bookmark a webpage. Then it does not show in the bookmark list. However when I do a search in the upper right corner of the bookmark window (not like google search), the webpage bookmark is found. I am using Safari 5.06 (just updated). same with 5.03.

    Good/fast work Jane, but what was it please?

  • When I click on bookmarks in the menu toolbar, my bookmarks do not show up

    This is Firefox on a new Windows 7 laptop, which I downloaded last week. I have created a bunch of bookmarks and a couple of new folders. If I click on bookmarks, organize bookmarks, they all show. But, unlike my other Firefox installations, they do not show up after I have simply clicked on bookmarks on the toolbar.

    Only bookmarks that are located in the Bookmarks Toolbar folder will show on the Bookmarks Toolbar. You need to move bookmarks located in other folders (Bookmarks Menu and Unsorted) to the Bookmarks Toolbar folder if you want them to appear on that toolbar.

  • Bug: Bookmarks do not show up on the browser when there is no connection

    Pre is not showing bookmark icons when there is no internet connection.
    I am currently on international roaming with no data connection, but am using the Pre over WiFi. The Pre turns off WiFi when not in use, and then reconnects as soon as i turn it on. 
    However, it takes a few seconds to reconnect to WiFi, and if I open the browser in the mean time, it just opens a blank window with no bookmarks. It has the address bar, but doesn't really work.
    If I open the browser once it has connected to WiFi, everything works fine.
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    Same thing happens in Airplane mode.  I'll pass this along.... thanks!
    (You can't even edit full bookmarks list, either.  I can understand, kinda, not displaying the icons as their only purpose it to launch a data connection to the site, which obviously you're not going to do when not connected to data.  But IMO, you should still be able to organize your bookmarks, which doesn't look like you can do)

    When clicking on a link to a pdf file (example: <a href = 'xxx.pdf'>

    Is there a special process to install it in Safari? (Windows)
    Note: there is a Plugins folder in the Safari app folder, but inside it there iare only two Java plugins.
    Maybe the reader is not installed in Safari, if not, how would I install the reader for Safari Windows only?

  • ICal Sync- Not showing location of event

    Hello, my first ipod is becoming a nuisance. I want to be able to see more detail of the calendar events sent from ical or entourage for that matter. On the ipod each event shows up with the summary, date and time. No other information is shown. I need the location of these events. They are shown clearly on ical and entourage. Is this a limitation to the calendar on the ipod or am I doing something wrong? I have synced the calendar with iTunes and exported the file from ical into appropriate folder on the ipod. Both ways do not work.
    Any help will be welcome.

    David,
    If I am understanding you correctly then your first issue is that while a person's birthdate can be an event in iCal and shows up as an event in the iPod calendar after you sync, if you pull up the person's contact information on the iPod it does not show the birthdate, even if you have manually added birthdate as a custom field in Address Book. That may be an iPod limitation. The iPod contact display includes names, addresses, phone numbers, web address, and notes. That's about it I think, although I haven't dissected it much. What I personally have always done is put birthdate in the notes. However, if iTunes sync treats custom fields in AB the same way it handles meeting locations, then the custom fields MAY be being passed to the iPod, they are just being ignored. If so, then it probably wouldn't be too difficult to write a Perl script to copy the birthdates into the notes field so that they show up on the iPod. That might be useful to folks, so I'll look into it.
    The second issue you describe is AB's import ignoring the birthdate field that you have in your tab-delimited Filemaker Pro output file. If that doesn't work my only guess would be that it is because birthdate is not a standard field in Address Book. This may be a limitation of the import that would affect other non-standard fields as well, like Nickname or Maiden Name. I'm afraid I haven't played with the import though, so I do not know for certain.

  • ES2 AD Sync - Not showing Child Principals from AD Group

    Hi Everyone,
    I currently am implementing Adobe LiveCycle ES2 SP1 BTE at a customer site. Most of the server side setup is done and all has been done without a snag.
    Currently we find only one issue with the way things are done and we would like to know if anyone has seen this before.
    Here is a layout of the architecture.
    - LC Server installed on Windows 2008 / Quad Core / 32 GB of RAM, attached to a database server and configured with the enterprise's AD
    - SQL Server installed on Windows 2008 / Quad Core / 16 GB of RAM
    The use of the normal operations of LiveCycle work without a problem. We can build, test, deploy processes and use all of the licensed modules of LiveCycle. The problem arises when we want to use the corporate AD to authenticate on Workbench or Workspace or AdminUI.
    I currently have a DEV domain setup in Domain Management, which takes care of Authentication and Directory Searches for Users and Groups.
    The sychronization works and allows me to synch the different groups. The test tool even confirms this both from within LiveCycle or when I take my query and use it in a 3rd party LDAP querying tool.
    Unfortunately, I have a TEST group in my DEV domain which contains users, these users should show up in my Child Principals under UserManagement, but they do not - I should have 6 users show up - but it tells me my group is empty.
    When I do the setup of the Group and I ask the testing tool - both LiveCycle's or 3rd party - they both show me the 6 users in the TEST group, but once I 'import' the TEST group and Assign it roles - LiveCycle tells me the groups are empty.
    I have setup AD Syncing a few times and never have seen this. Now why is this happening at this customer site - I totally don't know.
    Has anyone seen this problem before ?
    Thanks!

    Is the problem seen only with this group or other groups also do not show group members

  • Context menu to select folders for syncing not showing up

    I saw this @ferman:
    How to: Choose which Creative Cloud shared folders you sync
    Does anyone know how to get this to work?
    Have Yosimite, latest version CC 1.8.1.451, restarted, syncing is active.
    But the menu as mentioned is not showing up.

    I tried that, and I'm still having the same problem. After I repaired the disk (I also repaired disk permissions, verified the disk, and verified disk permissions to be thorough), I got the following error message:
    Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
    Is that part of the problem, or a different one?

  • "Show All Bookmarks" is not showing all bookmarks

    upgraded to FF 4. When clicked, Bookmarks Toolbar button shows various bookmark folders with all of my bookmarks. It also shows the "Show All Bookmarks" option. When that is clicked the "All Bookmarks" folder is empty and I cannot organize any of the bookmarks which are in the main menu.
    Also, the other Bookmarks button which used to show all my bookmarks is now empty - it just shows "search".
    Deleted localstore.rdf and no change.

    After numerous reinstalls failed to solve this problem, I discovered that on my system, it has to do with using an external monitor (via DVI port). When I drag the Firefox window from my laptop screen to an external monitor, "Show All Bookmarks" is suddenly empty. Dragging the browser window back to the original display (laptop) does NOT fix it. Firefox must be RESTARTED on the original display. When Firefox re-opens, "Show All Bookmarks" functions normally again.
    WORK AROUND: the only way I can view "Show All Bookmarks" on my external monitor is to first open both the browser and "Show All Bookmarks" windows on the original display, drag BOTH windows to the other monitor and be sure to leave the "Show All Bookmarks" library window open in the background. If I forget and close it by accident, the problem happens all over again.
