Mini will not save bookmarks

Just purchase a new mini.
It will not save bookmarks.
What can I do?

If the top of your safari page is dark you are in private mode and you can't save bookmarks. To get out of private tap the + sign in the upper right corner of the Safari page then tap private in the lower left corner.

Safari will not save bookmarks

Hi. Ever since I set up a standard account to use, Safari refuses to save bookmarks. I was able to transfer the bookmarks.plist file from the original admin acct. to standard account. Yet, when I import the bookmarks.plist file into Safari, I get an error message (which provides no advice on how to troubleshoot) telling me that Safari failed to save bookmarks.
I had this problem before with iTunes after setting up a new standard acct. The advice given was to delete the account--which didn't fix that given problem.
Thanks for any advice.

What exactly happens when you try to save a bookmark?
One thing I always try when an app misbehaves is to quit the app like I describe next then reset the iPad. Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Firefox will not save bookmarks

I have a new version of firefox and it will not let me allow me to save bookmarks. Nothing happens when I make this attempt. I have gone to support on their site but many are simply windows users. I do not know what to do, any suggestions?
imac Mac OS X (10.2.x)

Hi there,
I use Firefox on both a PC and an Apple and have not run into problems bookmarking pages. I have version 1.5.02 on the Apple.
You have a couple of options when bookmarking: save to a folder in your bookmarks section or bookmarking the page to the bookmarks toolbar. You should go to the Bookmarks menu > open Manage Bookmarks and see if your bookmarks are being saved into a folder...
Post back with particulars of what happens... Rick

My bookmarks toolbar is not working, will not save bookmarks and all of my previous bookmarks are lost. The articles are not helping. Please help.

I cannot find my bookmarks. I've tried troubleshooting with the information from several articles with no luck. I even tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox. I can only add 2 bookmarks, then it won't let me add anymore. All of my bookmarks are gone, I don't mind re-adding them but now I can't even do that. Please help.

Even though the Firefox application was not shown as running in the Applications Tab of Task Manager, it WAS shown as running in the Processes Tab. I ended the process, and the problem was solved.

Macbook, Snow Leopard 10.6.8 Since the last software update Safari 5.1 will not save history. Prefs. are set correctly, reset has been done, appropriage plist has been trashed, now Saf. 5.1 has been re-installed. Still dumps history every time

Macbook, Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Safari 5.1.1
Since the last software update, Safari will not save bookmarks history.
Prefs. are set correctly, Cache has been dumped, reset done, appropriate .plist trashed, and finally an uninstall and clean install done
with 5.1.1 download from the Apple support site.
The problem still exists, making me very suspicious that this is a bug.
Any solutions? Let's hear 'em.

M. Davis:
Thank you for your kind and prompt solution. It is a winner.
Problem solved, again many thanks and a very fine evening/day wherever you
may be.

My new mac book pro will not save any bookmarks I make in safari. Why is it doing this? I would really like to use my bookmarks.

MY new Mac book pro will not save any of teh bookmarks I make in safari. If I make a bookmark, it will not appear until I close safari and reopen it. Then, if I shut my computer down and reopen safari, all of the bookmarks are gone. This has happend multiple times and I don't know what is going on. I would really like to use my bookmarks.

Delete the

OSX 10.7.4. will not save ANY of my preferences (system or application -- Safari, Office, etc.)

I am running System OSX 10.7.4 on three different MacBooks. It will not save any of my preferences (system or application based), passwords, log-ins and keychain. Even Safari did not save imported bookmarks. I am running Office For Mac 2011 (v 14.2.1) and Outlook will work for a day or two and then I get a rebuild database error message, losing everything. Word, et all, will not save any preferences, not even recent files.
I did a full erase and clean system reinstall and a fresh install of Office. This problem occurs on all 3 of my MacBook, 2- MacBook Pro’s and a MacAir. One of the MacBook Pro’s is BRAND NEW.
Any ideas, any fixes out there?

I have what seems to be a similar issue. Are you having other issues like mine?
Macbook air      11-inch, Late 2010
                        4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Software           Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)
I have updated the latest combi update from the apple site and still have the same issue.
No matter what I try every time I restart my Mac all my preferences and applications reset. (Also preferences don't save when exiting the preference folder)
For example when in >system preferences>general -untick the 'restore windows when quitting and re-open apps' I exit preferences and then go back in to check it has automatically reticked the box.
I have deleted 2 applications several times (including removing the icon from the dock) and each time after restarting it shows a question mark on the dock where I had deleted it from.
On restart I loose downloads and history in safai.
On restart it re opens documents and applications I have quite even after unticking the restore applications on restart box (the one that comes up when shutting down or restarting)
I have been trying to solve this for a month now and it really is frustrating the **** out of me.
helpppp pleaseee...

Pages 5.0 will not save documents created in Pages 09

I have hundreds of important documents I created and saved in Pages 09. I got a new Mac Mini running Mavericks 10.9.5 with the new Pages 5.0. The new Pages will not save my Pages 09 documents. Pages 09 will not save them either. Help!

1. Is it possible you installed from a demo installer and your 30 day trial period is up, when it goes into Read Only mode?
2. Where and what was your purchased disk?
3. Where are you saving to?
4. Have you tried saving somewhere else eg an external hard drive and see what happens then?
5. The auto-saving issue with Pages 5.2.2 could be problems with iCloud and online access.

Firefox security settings will not save any of my passwords even when i click on the check box for saving passwords. please help.

When a pop-up comes up on the screen it will ask to save my password or not, well, I click on save password but it doesnt save any passwords even when I have the check box checked for remembering my passwords for certain sites it will not save any type of passwords at all. What am I doing wrong? I am using linux-mac OS user.

Simply because I don't think about using this option that takes more time to close... I always close ALL my windows with the X.
Firefox doesn't hang at exit also...
Using Firefox / Exit doesn't always save the bookmarks also... let's say there is 80% chances it will but not always... I noticed the first time I open firefox after booting the computer... Bookmarks won't be saved... But if I close firefox and re-open it, then it might save it... 50% guess...
I tried the safe mode, but since its closing firefox and re-open it... new saved bookmarks sometimes work, sometimes don't... it's pretty unstable...
Hopefully there is a solution to this problem in a near update, annoying... else I will simply reverse to firefox 3.6.16

Safari 5 will not Save a pdf

Apparently since the OS 10.7.4 upgrade, Safari will not save a pdf from a google search page. Error message is "cannot export (file name)". Any Mac users know what is going on here? Firefox works fine. I've ;ooked in Safari and Finder prefs but can't find anything that would relate to this. Trying to download some Camera RAW tutorials. Bookmarked them in Safari, and later d/l in Firefox which sends them to Finder> Downloads by default.

For anyone else who runs into this problem, go to your hard drive's Library/Internet Plugins and trash the two AdobeReader plugins that have PDF in their name, then restart Safari. Many others have had this, starting with some Adobe update. It si probably not copnnected to 10.7.4, since one complainer was using Snow Leopard.

I have Firefox 3.6 on my Mac OSX 10.6.5 and it will not save settings for igoogle or my password for googlemail or hotmail. Can you help?

Very weird day in Firefoxland
First on a Powerbook G4 running 10.4.11 I respond to an invitation to upgrade to Firefox 4 (like a lot of others). Long story short, I wind up losing the browser altogether -- including all bookmarks. Why? Because neither the Firefox homepage (or CNET downloads) makes it clear that 4.0 is for OS 10.5 only! Amazing!
Then I try to register to post a reply in a thread that crits Firefox for not making this System Requirements info upfront clear. But the Register page I’m taken to (https://support.mozilla.com/bs/users/register) is in SERBO-CROATIAN!!
Then I try to log into Chat a couple of times and when it’s not CLOSED its a long line waiting and THEN it closes.
WOW!! Are the wheels off the wagon here or what!?!

Volume Level Will Not Save When Restarting or Shutting Down iMac

I have a 24" iMac with 10.4.9 and all available updates as of April 5. When I restart my iMac the volume level will not save so when I reboot into OS X it is at 50% which is inconvenient for me since I have my speakers at full so all I would have to do is use my Mac's volume to turn it up. I never had this problem with my G4 Mac Mini. I know I could just create an Automator action, but the system should save the volume automatically, shouldn't it?
Thanks!

I have had this problem since the day I got my machine in february last year. At every new boot it's not full (as i like it) but only up half way.
I don't know why it doesn't stick, but I've lived with it for over a year so I kinda forgot about it.
OS X ignoring the setting whether or not to dim the display after a few minutes is another of those minor peeves that have been around for over a year.

My new iPad mini will not charge when plugged into adapter. Any suggestions?

my new ipad mini will not charge when plugged into adapter. What should I try?

Does the charger get warm at all? Plug the cable into your computer with iTunes open. Does it say not charging.? If it does, the cable is good. The iPad will charge very slowly when pluged into your computer.
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it.
