Reading List incredibly sluggish

Hi a few weeks ago i was able to add things no problem to reading list and whatever was added would sync no problem with both my 27" Imac upstairs and my Iphone 4S.
Then for no reason that i can discover one night i went to add something to reading list on my MacBookPro and the reading list took almost 15 seconds to appear!
i added the item and clicked the glasses expecting it to disappear but nothing happened,so i naturally clicked again but the whole screen "hitched"slightly to the left and a bit further when i did it again??
This was really difficult to recover from and i tried everything including a restart ,checking/verifying disks etc  but the phenomenon continues!
After a while i literally gave up using reading list  BUT what happened next was equally weird!
On my home LAN network i went on my Imac upstairs and it too was doing the exact sme thing!
Is reading list controlled by the cloud and has anyone else had or is having anything like this going on as well,i am really not happy that this is happening on my Macs,this is so unusual ,please any help or advice would be welcomed.

I am unable to open a reading list item when i am not connected to the internet
You need an internet connection in order to access pages saved in your Reading List in Safari.
"Reading List doesn’t store articles for offline viewing—when accessing a saved article in the Reading List, your computer must be connected to the Internet."

  • Worst update ever - my computer loads slowly, is incredibly sluggish, and totally unusable.

    TThis has to be the worst update ever. My Mac (if it loads...50% success), boots slowly, is incredibly sluggish, and completely unusable.

    Don't shout. Yes, we will be seeing an update soon. Version X.1 is always released just a few weeks after the initial release. Apple tries to repair the most disruptive bugs in that first update, and does more finetuning in the second, which usually is released about two or three months after the initial release. That's the usual routine.
    On some Mac's people seem to have performance issues like yours. I understand your not happy, but I suggest you'll be patient some more and update when 10.1 or 10.2 comes out. When it does run smooth on your machine, you'll find out it's the best upgrade (it's an upgrade, not an update) since many years.
    Do as Canyonlight wrote in the fourth entry of this topic. Just use you backup and go back to Mavericks and wait it out. Nothing wrong with that. Upgrading is not a necessity but a choice.

  • How to delete THE WHOLE Reading List of Safari iOS 8 in one shot?

    I know how to delete individual items one by one by sliding them to the left, I know how to clear their cache in Settings and I know how to clear Safari's history but  nothing clears the whole Reading List in one stroke.
    How do you do?
    Thank you very much in advance for your answer.

    Please read this book.

  • How to delete file names from Adobe Reader list

    How can I delete file names from the Adobe Reader list?  I have deleted the file & it's empty, but deleted file names remain in my list & it's very annoying.  I can't seem to find an option anywhere to delete the file names.

    Thanks for the answer, I will try this & post my results with this method.  I have set the amount to zero, & it seems if I want to put back valid files into my list I first need to find them in another file in my pc, such as documents, open them in Adobe Reader, & then then they will reappear in the Adobe Reader list.  Is this correct?  Thank you!
    This seems to be the case, you need to restore each file you want in your list one by one by accessing them elsewhere on your pc, & then you must open them with Adobe Reader to have files reappear in your Adobe Reader list.  However, this seems to be a tedious process if you only want to delete one obsolete file from your list by first emptying the list & rebuilding it file by file.  It works, but I'm wondering if there is a more sensible & efficient way to do this?

  • I have huge lag with Safari's Reading List using a rMBP. I have probably 80 articles saved, which is likely the cause of the lag. Is there any way to export that list of articles so as to be able to delete them from Reading List but still have a record?

    I have huge lag with Safari's Reading List using a rMBP. I have probably 80 articles saved, which is likely the cause of the lag. Is there any way to export that list of articles so as to be able to delete them from Reading List but still have a record of the articles I intend to read?

    I'm currently dealing with this issue myself, except that my rMBP has NO articles in the reading list.  It's a brand new rMBP too, purchased just this week, with the 2.6 Ghz Processor & 16GB of RAM.
    Let's see what we can find.  I may just take it back to the Apple Store.

  • Since upgrading to ios8, pages very slow to load, and can no longer read items in my reading list when offline. ?????

    SI since upgrading to ios8, Safari pages are very slow to load, Kindle crashes upon opening, and I can no longer read saved artices from my reading list when offline. Big disappointment. Is it possible to downgrade to previous ios?

    I actually managed to fix it! But unfortunately I don't know what I was that I did that helped.
    Anyways, this is kind of what I did.
    1. I tried to reset form bakup via iTunes, no change.
    2. I tried to reset as a new iPhone, problem still there and reading list also as bookmarks!? (several hundred)
    3. Noticed that I could delete a bookmark, once in a while, the other times I got the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
    4. Because I figured that it was a memory problem, I thought it made sense to delete as many as possible, witch I did.
    5. Noticed that it was more likely that I coould delete a bookmark if I restarted Safari.
    6. Notice that it was even more likely that I could delete a bookmark if I turned the Safari sync with iCould off (with option detete information on iPhone) and then back on again.
    7. When I was about half way through deleting the bookmark list I suddenly discovered that all but one of the items in my reading list was 'waiting' and one was downloading. I kind of was 'unstuck' now.
    8. I started to delete items in my reading list, but every other time I got the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
    9. It took a while to delete all bookmarks and items in the reading list.
    Hope you guys could use the info here to fix your problems too!

    How to delete in bookmark and reading list in safari in Ipad and iphone4

  • How do I delete my entire reading list in safari from iphone 5?

    Is there a way to delete the entire reading list in safari?  Theres too many to have to go through each item and delete them manually

    Can't be done on the phone with deleting them individually.  You can however download the free app My Contacts Backup.  Open this app, tap the preferences (gear) icon on the bottom right, in the screen that opens scroll to the bottom and tap Remove all contacts.

  • How to delete an item under the 'glasses' icon in reading list?

    I cannot delete a webpage under the 'glasses' icon in the reading list of the Safari browser. It just says ' show unread' but does not delete it. There is no 'Edit' button in the reading list under the 'glasses' icon. There is no way I can delete that webpage. I erased the iphone but it did not work. The webpage is still in the reading list under the 'glasses' icon. What can i do? I want to delete it.

    Hey virginiefromfr,
    I found this on deleting items from your reading list:
    Delete something from your reading list:
    Swipe left on the item in your reading list.
    via: iPhone Reading list

  • How to re-arrange my reading list

    How does one re-arrange the sequence of entries in the reading list?  (iOS 7 on iPad mini)

    There is no way to rearrange the reading list that I know of.
    Remember that Reading List is intended as a place to store interesting reading only in the short-term. If you want to organize links, the more appropriate place might be in Bookmarks.

  • 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.
