Items saved in the Reading List keep disappearing?

I've only just started to use the Reading list functionality after upgrading to OS X Lion recently. However, on the occasions used the items "saved" to the Reading List have been lost the next time I come to look for them after shutting down my Macbook previously. Anyone out there who can advise?

Is it possible you have the Unread button pressed when looking at the Reading List pane when re-opening? Try tapping the All button.

  • Can you reorder items in the reading list?

    Simple question
    Can you reorder items that are saved in your Safari Reading list?  For example, move some items to the top or rearrange them so the ones on the same topic or from the same website are next to each other?  I would think this would be something simple to do but I cant seem to do it.  I just see how you can show the ones youve read (which usually just means youve clicked on them) but had no luck when trying to drag to rearrange them

    Yes you can with a little forethought. Select from the Reading List the page you want at the top. You will now see this as the usual Safari view. Use the normal procedure for adding a new page to the Reading List. The desired page will now be at the top. Try this for one item. You can then organise on paper the order you want remembering that the most recent action will appear at the top. Longwinded but it works.

    How to show all items in the reading list? I think this option has been removed in Safari Version 7.0.2

    Thanks. That solved it. I had my doubts since I wasn't concerned about my lost bookmarks. I was concerned about the broken functionality. In any event, restoring from a backup solved both the functionality and the lost bookmarks. I appreciate the response!

  • How can I get Safari to keep the reading list pane open all the time?

    I am really enjoying the Reading List pane in Safari. How can I get Safari to make it default that the reading pane is always open on every tab or window I open? I'm running Lion 10.7.3.
    Thanks.

    Hi Necris Rex,
    If you are having trouble keeping the leading zeros even after first formatting the cells as text and then importing the csv values (perhaps you are importing the csv via File > Open into a new document) then you can restore the leading zeros without much trouble:
    Insert a new column next to the column where the leading zeros have not imported as you want. Here I assume the original values are in column B and your new column is C.
    Put this formula in column C:  =RIGHT("00000000"&A,6) , and fill down the column.
    Select column C, command-c to copy, and, with the column still selected, Edit > Paste and Match Styles.
    Delete the original column that has the missing leading zeros.
    Replace the 6 in the formula with the number of digits you need, so the formula knows how many zeros to "pad."
    The above assumes you actually need the leading zeros back.  If you just want to display things nicely in your Numbers table, then formatting as Numeral System and setting Places to 6 (or whatever) is quick and easy, no formulas required.

  • How do I make the Reading List window in Safari disappear

    All of a sudden, a very irritating window or tab opened on the left side of my Safari Window asking me if I want to add the current page to my "Reading List".  I don't have a reading list, I don't want a reading list, and I want this window to go away.  How do I make it vanish?

    1. Click "View" menu in the Safari menu bar.
        From the drop down select "Hide Reading LIst".
       or
    2. Click the Reading List icon Reading glasses in the Safari bookmarks bar.
         The left most icon.
    Best.

  • HT5271 The reading list icon will not work.

    I can save to the reading list but but it will not open every time and just keeps getting worse.

    Quit Safari. Disable bookmark synchronization, if applicable.
    Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Go to Folder… from the Finder menu bar. Copy the following line into the text box that opens, then press return:
    ~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist
    Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the Finder window open. Relaunch Safari. Your bookmark lists will be empty, but they can be recovered. Add a few items to the reading list. Test. Same problem?

  • How can I delete the reading list in Safari on iPad 2?

    I would like to delete the reading list in Safari on my iPad 2. How do I have to do it?

    You can't delete the reading list portion of the bookmarks window. It is built into the app so you can't delete it. That is not optional.
    You can delete items from the reading list by swiping Across the item in the reading list to bring up a red Delete button. Then tap that button to delete the item from the list.

  • How do I close the reading list in Safari?

    I opened my reading list and it is now using about 1/4 of my monitor screen.  How do I close it? 

    Exactly as dominic23 states, I followed  the step and lo and behold ... it was gone!
    First open Safari, then choose Preferences from the drop-down menu.
    Click on Bookmarks, then place check on Include Reading List -- the eyeglass icon then appears in the Bookmarks Bar at the top of the page.
    Left click on the Eyeglass icon, and the Reading List column will disappear.
    Hope this works.

  • My mail contacts list keeps disappearing and have to reboot to get it back.

    My email contact lists keeps disappearing when I go to another page like Face Book. When I come back to my mail my contact list is gone. Then I have to sign and out and sign back in again to get the list. What's wrong here?

    Hi Fishfever,
    From an earlier post:
    Start playing a song, any song.
    Tap on the album artwork area for the song playing to bring up the scrubber for the song.
    The shuffle icon/selection is located at the right of the scrubber, and the repeat icon/selection is located at the left of the scrubber. If repeat is on, the color of the icon will be blue. Select the icon until the color of the icon is white, which means repeat is off.
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,

    Thanks. I don't know why it wouldn't just go back there when I tried putting it back? I didn't change anything, so I assumed the new "default" was over on the left. Glad it was a simple solution after all.

  • Where is the "reading list" icon in Safari 8.0.4?

    Where is the "reading list" icon in Safari 8.0.4? I need to put it in my menu bar but I can't seem to find it in "Customise toolbar" or "Prefs"

    OK, your are looking for "Add to Reading List" button.
    It is available by default but hidden.
    Move the mouse pointer to the very left in the Safari address bar, a "+" sign in a circle will appear.
    Click it to add an item to Reading list.

  • Safari on my iPad. I have an original iPad and since updating to the latest iOS safari forces me to restart the iPad about two to three times a day. Three problems: 1. It just blacks out. 2. The reading list does not delete after the story is read. 3. Ema

    Since updating to latest iOS safari fails several times a day.
    1. Just quits.
    2. The items on the reading list will not delete after visited.
    3. The screens goes grey when I go to email a reference.
    Is the a solution other the restarting the iPad or is this something apple ought to fix?

    See if the following help.
    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (and Clear History)
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
