How do I edit my Top Sites Page on Mavericks?

I am trying to figure out how do I edit the top sites page. Before you were able to click an edit button that allowed you to delete and pin the pages but now I can't figure it out. More specifically I want to know who to delete certain pages.

I know this is old, but I just figured I would shed some light on solving the issue I think you are actually speaking of. When I upgraded, I immediately noticed I could not click "edit" in the bottom corner to change the amount of top sites, which slightly irritated me. I tried everything, and eventually thought they had done away with the feature altogether, but then I saw if you click safari (from here, that Bold Safari word in the top left corner of the screen) and choose 'preferences' it will take you to a tab that allows you to modify the number of top sites, allowing me to go back down to 6. Easier to read, easier to make sense of. (A lot of websites cannot be made out when they are '16 top site' size. So this was something I wanted to fix, with my 11" screen.) Hope this helps!

  • My mac updated, now top site page has changed and is in edit mode constantly-help?

    When I restarted my mac after a scheduled update, the top site page still had all my saved sites on it but it was much bigger and the style and background have all changed. It also appears to be in edit mode and I can't see an edit button (like usual) to switch the mode off. The little cross and pin button is on each of the site icons and won't go away...Not techy enough to know how to fix this   Would appreciate any help!

  • Why does safari randomly load top sites page?

    Advise needed?
    I have recently updated to Mavericks and un the latest safari on my Macbook pro, but i have noticed since I updated to Mavericks that Safari sometimes randomly just loads the top sites page rather than the requested web page like bbc.co.uk etc.
    Any ideas of what is causing this or how i can completely reinstall safari?

    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.

  • How do you add a "top of page" button to an iWeb page?

    How do you add a "top of page" button to an iWeb page?

    Two solutions:
    The Easy One:
    Create a Form (which will be the button) and add text to it or choose a picture from iphoto. Now give the form/picture a hyperlink to the same site. So now if you press the button, the site will refresh and start at the beginning/top
    The advanced way:
    1. Publish your site on the web (not just local). Copy the URL
    2. Now create a Button like displained in the solution above. As Hyperlink you'll now have to set external site and paste the before copied link AND add the following at the end of the url:      #widget0
    3. Add a html widget to the top of the site.
    4. The widget's content should be   <a name="anchor"></a>
    5. Publish your site again on the web and look wether it works.
    This way won't work, if the created site is linked as an iframe.

  • How can i disable the top sites on my safari browser?

    How can I remove the Top Sites features when I open safari so that the whole page defaults to Google?

    That doesn't really disable "top sites," it just hides the page from regular view. One can still select "show top sites" in the History menu. I would like it turned off. I don't want this feature to be accessible at all. There should be a setting that turns it off entirely.
    I don't begrudge other people's preferences if they like it, but there should be the ability to simply deactivate the feature. I don't find it useful, I find it creepy, like the browser is stalking me. I know it just uses data from my history, but I don't care. It feels like my browser is stalking me and invading my privacy. Since it's my browser, I want to tell it to knock it off, once and for all.

  • How do i create a top site

    how do i create a top site after inadvertently deleting one

    I'll bet I'm older than you and being a lady isn't relevant! But I'm glad to try to help.
    My version of Safari is 8.0.2 and the Top Sites icon I was referring to is shown with the red arrow pointing to it in the picture below:
    If you have an older version of Safari and the Top Sites icon isn't there, I believe you can do the following:
    1. Open a web page to the site you want to add.
    2. Open a second tab to Top Sites
    3. Go back to the first tab, click and highlight the URL (address) and drag it to the Top Sites tab (just to the words Top Sites that are exposed near the top when the first tab page is covering the rest of the Top Sites tab.
    If that doesn't work, reply with the version of Safari you have -- click the menu named Safari and then About Safari to get the version.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I update the 'Top Sites' display on Safari on my MacBook Pro?

    Ok, so, up until fairly recently (around 2 weeks) when I opened Safari my topsites would be displayed as nine 'thumbnails'. And they used to show the current site, so if I had CNN, it would show the top stories of the day, yet now it has stopped and hasn't updated for weeks, so is showing old news, until I click it. Also, for NBA.com, it shows an old picture, until I click and open the site. I know this is a very trivial thing, yet it's annoying. So basically, how can I add a new tab and see the Top Sites' thumbnails updated? Thanks in advance.

    Hi.
    now it has stopped and hasn't updated for weeks,
    The TopSites.plist file may be corrupted. There's an easy fix.
    Quit Safari.
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:
    ~/Library/Safari
    Click Go
    Move the TopSites.plist file from the Safari folder to the Trash.
    Relaunch Safari. See if that made a difference.
