When I updated my iphone to ios7, it only lets me access my old apps through the store and won't let me download them again.

How do I redownload/delete them so I can put them back on my phone?

So your'e saying it lets you open the app from the app store? If so, that means it's on your phone somewhere take a better look at your homescreens. It will only let you open an app if it's been previously downloaded to the phone.

Safari trouble login and bookmarks, question placing .apps in diff. folders

Hi, I am having a little bit of trouble with safari I need some help.
I downloaded opera to try out a different web browser... all was well.. Then I tried going back to safari, safari was still and still is my default browers. Anyway, I tried loging into myspace.com, to be exact, and it just sent me to the login page again. I tried login on opera, it worked.
I went to a friends mac and tried login on safari, it worked there. Yet on my mac it still does not work.
So, I deleted my cache, and reset safari, tried again still did not work. Maybe I should restart my computer?
I can get in on opera but that does not make sense.
Also, I noticed my bookmarks are missing, maybe this is after the cache thing. I don't know I am kind of new to macs. But, I did notice that the bookmarks that I had, including the pre-installed mac ones are listed under Safari bookmarks, in opera.app. Is Opera taking over my safari?
Also, this is kind of different. But I have quite a bit of apps on my computer, and I decided to list them into different files under applications. for example opera and safari are under application/internet apps... Could this affect performace, and does everything HAVE TO BE under plain applications, I would not think so, I mean some big programs automatically make a file.
Anyway, help with safari would be awesome! Anyway to reload it or something
Thanks!

Yes, you can reinstall. Directions may be found on this earlier thread. The only change to the instructions will be running the 10.4.7 combo update.
As with all reinstalls, it's a good practice to make a backup of your system beforehand, mitigating any unforeseen problems during the installation.
Post back and let me know how it worked out.

How can I get my iMac Firefox bookmarks into my iPad? When I sync my iPad it only moves the old Safari bookmarks.

My desk-top is an iMac G5. I use the Firefox brouser exclusively on it and have for a number of years. I now have an iPad [#1] but it only has Safari as a brouser. When I "Sync" my iPad with my iMac it brings my "old" Safari bookmarks list to the iPad. I cannot find a way to get my "everyday" Firefox bookmarks list into the iPad? What do I have to do??

1. for your desktop <br />

Why are Safari bookmarks taking the place of Firefox bookmarks on my Macbook.

I installed Mozilla Firefox on my Macbook. My Safari bookmarks have populated where my Firefox bookmarks should be and my Sync account exports no Firefox bookmarks. Can anyone help me with this problem? I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. Still the Safari bookmarks and Sync is doing nothing.

As soon as I submitted this question, I noticed the Firefox bookmarks toolbar was suddenly populated my Safari bookmarks from my Macbook Air. The Sync account on my Mac had exported my Safari bookmarks to my Desktop PC. I freaked out and then restored my bookmarks from >Library>Import and Backup. I have close to 1000 bookmarks that I have saved. I am moving and need to pack away my PC and I will only have use of my Macbook. And I rely heavily on my Firefox bookmarks for research. Thank you anyone for helping me figure out why my Safari bookmarks have overrode my Firefox Sync account and toolbar.

How to force sync Safari Bookmarks from my laptop to the iPhone?

I have "cleansed" and rearranged my Safari Bookmarks on my laptop and would like to have the same structure and set of bookmarks on my iPhone, but syncing apparently does not change the bookmarks on the iPhone.??? I am puzzled. What do I do wrong?
How can I delete all bookmarks on the iPhone and force a synchronisation with the laptop? (In System Preferences>Mobile Me the Safari Bookmarks are checked).
thanks in advance for any pointers/ suggestions/solutions.
Cheers,
Veit

Thanks a lot for your instant response. I am now in iTunes>Info>Advanced, but there the only options after Replace Info on the iPhone is Mail Accounts and that is greyed out. The Web Browser heading above the Advanced heading says: Your bookmarks are being synced with iPhone over the air from MobileMe. Over the air syncing settings can be changed on your iPhone.
But on the iPhone I don't find where to change these settings. Any suggestions?
Thanks a million.

Safari bookmark sync (continuity) does not work anymore

I noticed that my Safari stopped syncing between devices.
I have Safari enabled in iCloud settings on all my devices (two Macs with OS X 10.10.2; one iPad Air 2, and one iPhone6, both with iOS 8.2).
I also tried the usual disable-enable-merge cycle, with more than 1 minute wait-time in between for the syncing to fully complete.
In the end, each device still has its own version of the bookmarks and reading list.
It used to work when running OS X 10.0 and iOS 8.1.
I don't know when this has changed.
Please help here.

Howdy kakyoism,
It sounds like you are trying to use iCloud to sync your Safari Bookmarks and Reading lists across your iOS and Mac OS devices. I would like to recommend that you use the troubleshooting in the following article if you have verified that the same Apple ID is signed in on each device:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,

How to transfer SMS and Call History from Iphone 5 to Iphone 6 plus? Only the contacts, calendar, safari bookmarks and notes have synced.

Hi! Please help. I have synced my IPhone 5 to Itunes. When I try to sync it to Iphone 6 plus, only the contacts, calendar, safari bookmarks and notes have synced to the latest date. The rest like SMS and Call History have only synced to June 2013.

I upgraded from an iPhone 4S to iPhone 6 Plus, I don't like to run iTunes, and iCloud backup is not so reliable, I think. Then I searched on the Internet, and some articles told me that I can directly transfer data from Phone to iPhone with some tools.
I doubt it first, then I gave a shot on one of them for the free trial. I follow the steps to transfer about 200 sms from my 4S to 6 Plus, and it works!
Got this from here: http://www.cultofmac.com/296711/transfer-data-new-iphone-6-imazing/
Hope this helps!

Why is it that every time I am doing something weather it's looking in the app store or using safari I iPad will close down and take me to my home screen? It gets very frustrating when you in the middle of something. I have checked for updates, none avai

None available. Any possible solution of what could be causing this issue. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

Your iPad is as updated as it can be at 5.1.1. Your apps are crashing probably due to a lack of memory. Try keeping apps in the recents tray to a minimum. For starters close all apps completely, clear Safari and then reboot the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open 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.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.
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 - let go of the buttons.
See if this helps at all. If if does, remember to keep apps in the recents tray to a minimum. You shouldn't have to do that, but unfortunately, iOS 5.1.1 stretched the capability of the original iPad processor to its limits .... IMO!

Syncing safari bookmarks to firefox after download - didn't happen

Is there an alternative method to sync Safari bookmarks without using iCloud? I am running the latest versions of Mavericks, iOS and iTunes.

Is there a method to sync Safari bookmarks from my Mac to my iPhone WITHOUT using iCloud?
I am running the latest versions of Mavericks, iTunes and iOS.

Hi Mary ..
Afraid not but if you decide to use iCloud and you're iPhone is running iOS 8, (according to your profile), hold off until you can upgrade your Mac to Yosemite.

Problem syncing Safari Bookmarks onto the New Ipad

I need help syncing Safari bookmarks via Macbook(not icloud compatible) onto the New Ipad.

You need to connect the ipad to the computer then make sure safari is set to sync in itunes and complete a sync, it will sync that way.
You can go thru anything else you want to sync also and set that before you actualy sync. If your gonna sync then only do it once.

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!

Why do Safari bookmarks scramble when I sync devices

Whenever I sync my Macbook with my iPhone or iPad,all my bookmarks on Safari become scrambled,and I have to spend some time putting them back into alphabetical order.
Does anyone know how to avoid this happening?

Hi Everyone!
ptichkalix, I have a mid 2010 Macbook.
My nephew works for Apple. The advice he has given to me over the years is to always update when Apple releases updates. I am not suggesting you update OS 10.6.8. to Mavericks or to Yosemite, or to update when there is a Safari update. That is up to you, your MacBook's processor speed, ram memory, and storage size.
What I do suggest is to follow the advice of Drew Reece - back up. And back up on a regular basis.
You can find your Safari Bookmarks: Safari data and settings: ~/Library/Safari/
The tilde (~) character indicates your home folder.
If you update to Mavericks or Yosemite, the ~Library folder will be hidden, but there. You will need to find out how to see the ~Library folder. But keep in mind, Apple has hidden the Library folder to prevent inexperienced users from making big mistakes if the ~Library folder is opened and messed with.
I use my MacBook to get on internet while I watch TV in the den, and to take my MacBook when I get my allergy shots - something to do when I wait. I use my iMac for most of my computer use. I wanted to transfer my Safari bookmarks and my Mail address books from the iMac to the MacBook. The transfers have worked well.
I have also updated both the MacBook and iMac from OS 10.6 to Mavericks to Yosemite. Both run a little bit slower, but at least I have the security offered by the OS updates. My MacBook processor and ram memory is probably very close to the minimum requirements for Maverick and Yosemite, but it works, is fast enough for my use.
However, I have noticed it takes about ten seconds to open a saved Excel or Word file.
My MacBook:
OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2
Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 DUo
Memory 2 GB 1067 MHz DOR3
Storage 250 GB SATA Disk
Yosemite Safari, Mail and the other Apple applications work like a charm. However, PowerPC applications like Appleworks ARE NOT supported in Mavericks and Yosemite.

Hi apple user. I have lost all iPad safari bookmarks. Tried hold home button with sleep button but it doesn't get back my safari bookmarks. I also have reset without erasing my iPad data but still doesn't work. Help me get back my safari iPad bookmarks.

Hi, I quitted Safari and press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons silmutaneously unti the Ipad turn off and on with the logo Apple appears but it has hanged on and fixed to the point. I do it again hold the Home and Sleep buttons silmutaneously and the Ipad turn off and on again with the Apple logo but it still is hanged on the same point. I have do it a few more time, it still hanged to the same point for few hours with no change (like picture):
I think my Ipad is fault now. I guess I must connect it to the computer with itune, or something. So my case is this: at the moment everytime I hold the Home and Sleep buttons the Ipad always off and reappear with the Apple logo and be hanged on (like the pic), and I need restoring my Ipad Safari bookmarks... so I guess I need using Itune or something to get back the Ipad then using Icloud or blah. Please guide me for the step, Im not sure if connect to PC, if any that my Ipad data would lost, or is there anyway that I also can get back Ipad Safari Bookmarks after connecting to PC, also the how using Icloud. There is no Apple store or service store in my country so I think I must do it my self. Feel free to share your guide, thanks.
