Mavericks maps bookmarks keep disappearing?

I save a few bookmark locations in the maps application. then when i shutdown or log-off, all those bookmarks disappear! what is going on!

A quick fix would be to shut safari down by using 2xhome button. They should appear again when restarting Safari.

Restored Safari bookmarks keep disappearing

I restored my iPhone to get rid of the bloated "Other" category. In the process, I had first disconnected Safari on the iPhone from iCloud syncing before deleting bookmarks and the reading list. I did a full backup on iTunes before restoring. It remains that way. Nevertheless, the next time I started Safari on my iMac, all my bookmarks disappeared, in favor of the original defaults. I restored the bookmarks from Time Machine but every time I add a new bookmark, they disappear again, right before my eyes. It spills over to my MacBook Air, which I use when I'm way from my desk.
I really need those bookmarks. I have an .html list I exported as well so they are safe, just not convenient.
I have Safari 7.0.5. The recent update has not prevented this problem from recurring.
Does anyone have any idea why this keeps happening?

Using iTunes and using iCloud simultaneously will only cause problems for Safari bookmarks. It's one or there other.
On the iPhone tap Settings > iCloud then switch Safari off then back on.
On your iMac open System Preferences > iCloud. Deselect the box next to Safari then reselect it.
Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync the bookmarks.

My bookmarks keep disappearing at random, and will also disappear every time I try to organize them into folders. How can I fix this?

I use Firefox 3.6.20 on a Macbook. Almost every bookmark I attempt to save will disappear immediately after doing do. Also, when I'm trying to organize my bookmarks into folders, doing so often makes the bookmarks disappear as well, rather than placing them in the selected folder. The action of dropping them in a folder will either multiply the bookmark into three bookmarks, or make it go away completely. How can I fix this?

The Views menu in the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) is for displaying the bookmarks in different sorting orders (hence the name Views) and doesn't sort bookmarks permanently.
In Firefox the option to sort bookmarks is only available for folders and not for individual bookmarks.<br />
Easiest to sort by name is to do that in the left pane of the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) and right-click the folder that you want to sort.

Why do my bookmarks keep disappearing?

Every couple of weeks, my bookmarks in Safari disappear. They come back hours later, the next day or days later. I don't understand how this happens since I can't find a setting anywhere that makes this happen. I have an iPhone 4S with the latest software. I also have a Macbook Pro but I don't see anything with it that would tell the phone to erase and then retrieve the bookmarks.

[[Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars]] in Firefox.
View > Toolbars > Customize is the Menu to change this back.

Do you have any features turned on that autohide the toolbar?

NYT bookmark keeps disappearing from bar - just THAT one

So yeah, it's just the one bookmark that periodically goes missing. And it only affects the bookmark bar. I can't figure out why this is happening - is it because the New York Times is a pay site, or is there something else going on? It's a hassle to have to keep adding it to the bookmark bar again and again.
Ideas? Thanks!

Try highlighting the whole address.
I have tried this. It doesn't make any difference.
or
Drag the address to the desktop and see if may the
address is getting messed up in the process.
If the address is good then you should be able to
drag from the desktop to Dock.
I have also tried this. It works unless you delete the address which was dragged to the desktop, since the icon in the Dock refers to the file on the desktop, not the original bookmark.
Do you have any other ideas?
Thanks!

My bookmarks keep disappearing after a pup

A few days ago I collected a pup installer trying to convert a youtube vid to mp3. I got rid of it using Malwarebytes, however it still had unwanted browser add ons, which Firefox questioned and I deleted. Every time I opened a browser these add ons tried to reinstall, so I downloaded a new copy of Firefox using IE but the problem persisted. I ran a full scan using MBAM and one using SAS and nothing appearing. So I installed the 3 month old copy of Firefox I had saved and then let it update. Perfect, problem solved, I thought. I then used Mozbackup restore from a pre-virus time, which I have used for years, and had all my bookmarks back. However, now, every time I open a browser all of my Bookmarks are there, but if I close the browser and re-open later, all of my bookmarks disappear in front of me. I have tried restoring them and then doing another backup using Mozbackup while they're all there but it's not helping. I can't restore my bookmarks every time I open a browser. Please help?

How did you check the bookmarks? Was it thru the Bookmark Toolbar,
or did you open the Bookmarks Manager?
Press the '''Alt''' or '''F10''' key to bring up the tool bar. Then select

Every time I open a fresh browser and click on my 'bookmarks' tab to go to a page they just start deleting in front of me until they're all gone.

Please follow my instructions to open the Bookmarks Manager.

I did follow your instructions and checked the link which was not relevant thank you. I have no toolbars whatsoever and all add ons are disabled. Disabling all add ons was the first thing I did. Please don't feel you need to help if you are going to treat me like an idiot.

(I do NOT use norton at all) Some of my saved bookmarks keep disappearing when I close and re-open my browser..this is getting very frustrating! (firefox 4.0)

I have read about this happening, but the only solution is for people who use Norton, and I do not-it is not even on my laptop at all..
I have firefox 4.0. Every time I close firefox, some of my SAVED bookmarks are missing when I re-open later. I tried re-saving them, but then when I close and re-open firefox later on again, some more bookmarks are gone..this only happens when I exit for a while..if I close and re-open firefox right away the bookmarks are all still there.
This is very frustrating! I never had this problem with firefox 3.whatever..PLEASE HELP??
ps. i am not very technical, so if there is a bunch of hard things I have to do myself to fix this, then I think I will switch to Internet Explorer..

Yes - see [[options window - privacy panel]]. There is an option to clear some of the history when Firefox closes, you can customise that.

My bookmarks keep disappearing, even after they are restored

I can not get Firefox to stop deleting my bookmarks. I have to restore from an older file to get them back. If I quit the software and restart, sometimes the bookmarks are there and other times they are not. After getting them back yet again and then saving them out for backup, if I try to restore from the backup, it's empty... no bookmarks!
This is really starting to tick me off. Any ideas that will fix this bug?

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

My bookmarks keep disappearing

Since I have started using Firefox 4, and websites which I have newly bookmarked do not stay in my bookmarks menu after I close and reopen Firefox.
I have checked that they are there after I bookmark the page, and all is OK.

Bookmarks have disappeared

When I opened Safari this morning all my bookmarks had disappeared. The only ones showing were the "classic" ones that are pre-entered by Apple (Apple, yahoo, google maps... etc).
I did a search for bookmarks.plist which gave nothing! I have however now located the file where it should be (I think), in library - safari.
Any idea where my bookmarks have gone??? And how I can get the back?
History is still showing.
Also when a do a search simply on "bookmarks" I get a file in the user library (-caches - metadata - safari - bookmarks) which contains a list of hundreds of this :
00A2B00C-0F3D-41C5-82BC-0041930AB4C3.webbookmark
0A7E599F-67D8-4AE8-B3EB-D4B9D84DA68A.webbookmark
0A13F04B-5AAE-489D-B536-277A8A9E4B1A.webbookmark
... all dated july 24 at the same time (19:37)
Is that normal? Can that explain anything? Should I delete them?
A lot of strange things have been happening lately with my computer (photos disappearing from iphoto, then showing up black when clicked upon, etc, etc - even after I made a new library with none of the old photos) so I've run all the maintenance programs necessary over the past days and also done a permissions run (btw the same permissions "repaired" keep showing up everytime a do this).
Can anyone give me a hint of what is happening and what I should do? I'm spending too many hours on trying to get my computer to run normally and trying to find lost data. I've been on Macs for 20 yrs + and never experienced so much trouble in so little time

Can anyone give me a hint of what is happening and what I should do?
How much free space is left on your hard drive? If you don't have at least 15% of your total drive capacity free at all times, things can spontaneously disappear, including email. If you don't have that much now, do some housecleaning and get rid of things you don't need or archive them somewhere else.
Can that explain anything? Should I delete them?
You can delete the ~/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari items; those are just files that Mac OS X creates when you access a web page. It has nothing to do with the apparant disappearance of your bookmarks.

Mavericks Maps: can't delete directions

Hi there,
Mavericks Maps seems to keep the all directions/routes in the right hand directions window. Is there a way to delete the old directions/routes history so that the directions window is not "poluted" with stuff nobody needs anymore?
Thanks in advance!
B.

Click on the "Contacts" icon just to the left of the search field. Click on "Recents" and then click the "Clear" button. If you have places you want to get directions for again, add them as bookmarks. Bookmarks can be individually deleted.

Mac Mini keeps disappearing from network

I have a 2009 Mac Mini running 10.9.1 that is serving as a media center computer. Plex Media Server is on this machine along with my collection of movies and TV shows. I frequently access this machine using Plex clients, both on Mac and Roku, and also via file sharing and screen sharing on other macs. I almost always manage this machine through screen sharing, which makes this problem extremely frustrating.
Basically this mac keeps disappearing from my network. I can see it under "Shared" in finder on another computer, but when I click on it it hangs on "connecting" for a while and then just disappears. Same thing when trying to access via the Plex client on Roku. Sometimes I try to play something and it tells me to make sure my server is connected and running, and sometimes it doesn't even see my Plex media server at all.
I have screen sharing and file sharing enabled, and the firewall is set up to allow incoming connections for screen sharing, file sharing, and also Plex and all its helper programs. I don't think any of these should be the issue because I can access the mini with no problems SOME of the time just not all the time. Seems like if I haven't connected for some unknown amount of time this problem crops up. When it doesn't work I have to trot down to the basement, turn on the monitor (100" projection screen, so kind of annoying) and restart the computer. I have tried toggling "Put hard disks to sleep when possible," and that didn't seem to have any effect. I also have the energy saver set to wake for network access.
I do not recall having this problem as often, if ever, before I upgraded to Mavericks. Not sure if that could be part of the issue. One other quirk since upgrading to Mavericks is that upon every restart I am asked if I want to allow incoming connections for Plex and Connect 360, both of which are listed in the firewall preferences ad allowed programs.
Can anybody help?

See if it's related to this...
It also seems to be related to later OSX versions, like 10.8.x & 10.9.x
The 2012 macs (and later apparently) (also later OSX versions on earlier Macs can do it also), not waking normally from sleep after hours being in sleep. (noted here ...

The sleepimage file still reappears even if never slept. Delete it (hibernate off, etc) - within minutes its back.

Tab page and customization keeps disappearing

For the last two days, my tabs page and customization keep disappearing. When I open a new tab, it is completely blank, with no preloaded sites. When I try to add items such as bookmarks, home, search, adblock, etc to the address bar, they appear as if they have been added but do not appear on the page, nor do they appear after I shut down and restart Firefox. I have refreshed multiple times in the last few days. At that point, I can see the tabs page, see the settings gear, and can populate tabs, pin them etc. I can also get the customization to work. Most recently, the tab page was there, and I could see sites loaded, but the images were missing and never appeared. Sometimes when I shut down the computer, the settings are all saved, but other times they all disappear and the process starts all over again. This includes when I close Firefox with the Exit command under File rather than using the red X option.

Other users have reported problems with FoxTab recently: the reviews for it over the last 9 months are pretty blistering: [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/foxtab/reviews/]. I don't know enough about that extension to help with that.
But regarding the built-in main toolbar, those are changes that Firefox itself should save. Our support article "[[How to fix preferences that won't save]]" covers many of the reasons that there might be glitches with that. Another common issue is utility/privacy/security software like Advanced SystemCare that has a home page protection/browser protection feature. This can roll back your changes between sessions of Firefox. You may need to disable that feature if any of your software has it.
