How to disable Top sites icon in Favorites bar?

I have upgraded to Mavericks and there are two issues that make me regret the move. The first is small sounding but it makes me so angry I can't see straigh. In a Google sort of way, the new version of Safari foists upon me that miserable button - the top sites icon - as if to say "haa haa ... we know what is good for you". I want it gone! It used to be an option you could uncheck in the preferences ... but unless I'm missing something (I sure hope so!) Apple decided we should not have the option. Please tell me there is some way to get rid of the icon ... and better yet to disable somehow the whole top sites thing. I despise it, and I despise that someone tells me what I must have and how to work.
The second thing is the bookmark sidebar. I've always like how it works in safari. Now for some reason, as oposed to before, when you have the side bar slide into place so that you can select the bookmark - it stays there! Why? I want it to disapear after I click on a bookmark as it always has. I don't want to click again each time to make it go away. Is there a way to bring back the old behavior? This was in the beta of mavericks and I was not going to upgrade over the "feature". In the demo however I caught that a presenter clicked ... and the bar slid away, the way I would like it to. Now that I have mavericks ... it does not work as in the demo on stage.
So ... anyone ... is there a way for me to fix these two irritations?
I'm going to wait a month or so to see how Mavericks direction develops. I've always disliked Chrome because I don't trust they security and their proclivity towards tracking. I haven't cared for Firefox much neither ... mostly due to the way they render fonts. I will not use Safari if I can't change both of these features ... so I guess (because I suspect it is a case where apple knows what is good for me) that I won't be able to set up safari to not annoy me ... so my last questions is a recomendation for a replacement browser. What are your favorite browsers aside from Safari?
Thanks.

Well after a few more days with Mavericks I have to say I'm fairly impressed with it. Both laptops seem to have better battery life, and ... is it my imagination ... but they seem faster too? Not bad.
On the Safari problem I have, so far, made no headway, so I would be grateful for anyone who can come up with an answer. Perhaps the drawer sliding out and then back after you click your bookmark has a command line solution? I wonder how to investigate that?
As slick as Safari is (It has long been my favorite browser) I've been looking for a replacement. I won't consider Crome because of the afforementioned Google practice of monetizing "us' and our data. I don't trust em!
I dowloaded Opera ... and found that they have the same ideas in spades, about Top sites, that Apple seems to be adopting. What a shame ... and a no-go.
Then I started a trial with iCab. Now that is one nice browser! First impression are very possitive but there is the same top sites icon sitting there, with no obvious way to zap it. WHAT is going on ... does everyone havet to jump on the same (often hated) feature? I sent an email to the developer, expecting little but hoping just a bit anyways. Guess what? About forty five minutes later I received a reply. Wow, now that is nice!
My first impressions of iCab are very positive. I, however have the
same problem. There is a top sites right in the favorites bar. Can
this be disabled? I have not yet found a way to do this.
You can turn off this icon in iCab. Please enter "settings:" (without the
quote characters, but including the colon) in the URL field and hit the
"return" key. This will open some additional settings where you can configure
some more stuff. In the section "favorites toolbar" there's a setting to
show or hide the TopTen icon in the favorites toolbar. Just switch this
option off and click on the "Save Settings" button.
Alexander Clauss
..... So problem avoided. I'm going to spend the twenty dollars to register iCab even though one does not really need to. With responsiveness like this ... well, I want to keep it.
So that is my progress up until now. Not much on the original quest ... if you count nothing+hope as merely "not much". Still hoping. But having choices such as iCab and probably others ... sure did make me less grumpy.
I know I should perhaps just chill out. Life would sure be a bit easier if I had it in me to not care about these little details, I know. Having it perfect, perfectly elegant and perfectly customizable - that's tough.
On the other hand. This is Apple. Isn't it?
Cheers!

Gnome3: change icon size of favorite bar

hi,
i want to resize the icon size of the favorite bar in the gnome-shell but cant find the right position in one of the css files... I'm currently using a workaround where i changed the following in /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/dash.js:
dash.js: //let iconSizes = [ 16, 22, 24, 32, 48, 64 ];
dash.js: let iconSizes = [ 16, 22, 24, 32, 48 ];
im pretty sure that there is a cleaner solution.
regards hennesiv

Thank you, the-edmeister, as that too is what I needed. The default icon size of F.F. 14.0, are just plain to small. This really helped. :-)

Can not delete Fox news icon from Safari Favorites Bar, keeps coming back

I can not delete "Fox news" icon from Safari Favorites Bar. Dogpile Search engine also. Both keep coming back with icons upon new opening of Safari.
I have removed these icons from the Book Mark files and Favorites Bar menu and any reference in the LIbrary and replaced them with less spammy evercookie news and search engines 3 times to no avail. I just upgraded Safari (April 2014) and it made no difference. These sites represent the paradigm I
no longer am putting energy into nor want which is why I have rid these increasing more corrupted and cookie agressive sites. But now.....
they won't let me go!! Any one no how?

Thank you for trying but no not the problem. Had the same problem with Iphone 4S. Would not connect to my mail server and tried to send me to fraudulent website in the UK/England.
I did a restore to factory restore to the phone with upgrade to newest operating system, my was up to date until OS 7 as I heard there were problems. Now it has OS 7.
Neither I nor verizon could get the phone up and connected for service again. Taking phone to
apple store on Tues.
I am suspecting the "heart bleed" vulnerability.

How do I get rid of the favorites bar listing on the left of my screen

How do I get rid of the favorites bar listing on the left of my screen when I can find it at the top of the screen? I takes up too much of my useable acreen

Hi Dale,
I don't use Safari much, but try this as I recall...
Click the Book icon in the Favorites/Bookmarks bar.

I need a lesson on how to use my 'favorites' bar on IPad w/iOS 7.

I have turned on the 'show favorites bar' in settings.
When I open Safari I see the 'favorites' bar ....but....when I tap on one it does not go to the site.
Instead it shows a tab with a name in it and if I tap on that name nothing happens.
How do I add to the favorites bar?
How do I delete from it?
Should I be able to tap on one of the listed favorites and go to the website?
I have tried rebooting.
I have tried powering everything off and resetting.
Neither helped.
HHEEEELLLLPPP,!!

Regardless of whether this bar is displayed or not, you should be able to access what is in the "Favourites" folder in a few ways.
Firstly via the Bookmarks link in Safari. This is the first icon directly to the right of the address bar. Pressing this will open your Bookmarks menu. If you see the word Bookmarks in blue select this and it will take you to the main bookmarks page, and the word Bookmarks will appear in black bold text. If you see Bookmarks in black bold text when first clicking Bookmarks you are where you need to be. The first link on here will be Favourites and have a star icon right next to it, click on Favourites and you will see what has been added to your Favourites folder - if anything. Also there is an Edit button in the bottom right of this screen, if you aren't going where you expected when selecting a URL in here press Edit, press the > arrow to the right of the favourite name, is the URL correct? If not change it, and click DONE on the keyboard - appears where Return key normally shows on the right-hand side.
If you are opening Safari and have no tabs already open or have already closed pages so none are open you will see icons that represent the contents of your Favourites folder displayed at the top of the page.
Also with a page loaded if you click in to the URL field then you will see these icons appear again, together with the keyboard at the bottom of the page.
Hope this helps.

How do I remove the "show top sites" button from the favorites bar?

I just updated to Yosemite, and so I have Safari 8.0... which has the "Show Top Sites" button at the extreme left of the favorites bar. Given I loathe that feature, I tried to remove it but unlike everything else in the favorites bar, it won't go away or move.
I hate "Show Top Sites" as it feels like my browser is spying on me. I know it's just taking from what's already in my History but all the same, I don't see why I should have to put up with it given it's my browser and I should get a say in its behavior. New windows open to a blank page but I would at least like the button in the favorites bar removed, but ideally, the entire feature disabled.
I can disable tabs. Why not top sites?.

Hi ..
Unfortunately, there is no way to disable or remove the Top Sites icon from the Bookmarks bar.

How do I turn off and on the icon size slider bar at the lower right status bar of a folder window.

I have been trying for days to help a friend with a new iMac to turn on the icon size slider bar that on my iMac appears at the bottom of ever folder when it is open when in the "view" > "icon" mode. I cannot find anything that discusses this slider bar. I can turn this status bar off and on on both my machine and my friends machine, but I cannot turn off or on the slider on either machine.

This did not help. I am a Mac User since 1984 and generally I am never stymied buy the Mac OS, but this one has me. I can open and close the lower status bar, as you described, and that works fine for me because I have the icon slider bar already there and it works fine; however when I open the lower status bar on my friends machine there is no icon size slider bar, and I can't seem to find out how to get it there, as it is on my machine or at all. The icon size can be controlled from the View menu, but as a photographer, it is really handy to have it at the bottom of the folder window. Thanks for trying.

Why can't I click and open my Skydrive from the favorites bar in finder?

I am able to do this for Google Drive and also Copy, so I should be able to do the same for Skydrive.
So how come I cannot click on Skydrive in the favorites bar in finder? I can click on everything else but when I try to click skydrive it is as if I clicked on the window outside of finder where it would be inactive. I want to be able to open my skydrive from finder (in favorites) so how can I fix this?
Please and thanks for any answers at all in advance

If I understand correctly you want the title to appear on top of a later video clip so both title and clip are visible. The problem is the "whites" background which is both making the background opaque and stopping you from pasting it above another clip. If you just select and drag the title by itself, the background will be transparent so the video clip below will show through. You should also be able to copy and paste it directly above the clip you want.
If you want different parts of the title to have a special effect you will have to edit each instance after you have made and positioned the copies.
I hope this helps - or have I misunderstood?
Geoff.

HT201335 I have a MacBook Air that was bought April 5, 2011. It seems it should be supported for Airplay mirroring but I can't get it to work and I do not have the icon on my bar. Any suggestions?

I have a MacBook Air that was bought April 5, 2011. It seems it should be supported for Airplay mirroring but I can't get it to work and I do not have the icon on my bar. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the Apple community.
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.

Stuck with HomeSync icon in top bar

Hi,
I have Snow Leopard 10.6.2 connected to Active Directory in my company. There were home sync feature enabled in active directory, but now it is disabled by AD administrator.
Now I am stuck with homeSync icon (http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/5287/screenshotqj.png) in my top bar and I can't disable it, since I can't get into homeSync preferences from system preferences gui.
I guess I can edit it manualy going into ~/Library/Preferences, but I don't know where I can find setting I am looking for (enabling/disabling homeSync icon in top bar).
Does anyone know where it is?

command+drag the icon off the menu bar.

How do I keep my edits in favorites bar?

My favorites bar keeps reverting to an old set of bookmarks after I edit it. Might happen any time. Takes new bookmarks but keeps showing those I deleted from the f bar. ??? For example, after I edit the f bar to show just the bookmarks I go to most often -- eg, Google or a work webpage -- it will hold those edits for a while, even thru shut downs and restarts, but then suddenly will show all the old bookmarks I'd deleted before. Any new bookmarks I added to the f bar show up at the end. Doesn't matter if I delete the oldies by dragging them off the bar, or opening 'edit bookmarks' from the bookmarks menu. Surprisingly aggravating! thanks all.

Maybe you have the same "misunderstanding" as I had: (After successful sync) the links from the OSX Favorite Bar now show up in "Bookmarks - Favorites" (top entry in the list, quoted with a star) AND inside the window when opening a new tab.
This was different in a former iOS, I'm positive!

Flash not playing nicely with IE favorites bar

I administer a website (
http://womenscenter.uconn.edu/new_site/
) which on its main page has a Flash movie looping. It also has a
left menu bar for navigation, and everything is blissful until one
turns on the favorites bar in Internet Explorer. Then if the screen
is not big enough, the navigation bar is actually cut off in favor
of the Flash movie. What this means is that if there isn't enough
space with the favorites bar for both the navigation bar and the
movie, the navigation bar loses out rather than the other way
around (which is what one expects and wants to happen). I know it's
the Flash movie causing this because it doesn't happen on any of
the other pages in the site, which are basically identical in
layout except they don't have the Flash. Any help in preserving the
navigation bar would be greatly appreciated!

You can try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.
