Safari Bookmarks bar changes

I've always kept about 8 or 9 bookmarks in my bookmarks bar.  When I started Safari today there were suddenly about 20.  Anyone seen that before?

Disconect the external drives then restart your Mac and try Safari.

  • How do you sort the safari  "Bookmarks Bar" bookmarks

    how do you sort the safari  "Bookmarks Bar" bookmarks

    Here is the workaround for sorting your bookmarks - you don't have to do it manually as suggested in the previous answer here. This is from a 2006 page at Hints.Macworld.com
    "One thing that bugs me is that there is no option in Safari to alphabetize bookmarks. I had a crazy idea about how to accomplish this, and it seems to work. Hopefully I'm not missing something more obvious.
    What I did was open the Bookmarks window (Bookmarks: Show All Bookmarks), put the links I wanted to alphabetize into a folder, and then dragged that folder into the Finder. The Finder alphabetizes the bookmarks; you can then just drag the folder back into the Bookmarks window. You probably have to set the Finder to arrange files by name before it will work. Hope this helps!
    [robg adds: When you drag the folder back, you'll now have two folders, the original and the sorted one. Just delete the original, and you're set. You can also do this without first creating a Safari folder. Just select all the bookmarks to be alphabetized, drag them into a new folder in the Finder, open that folder (make sure it's set to sort by name or use column view), then drag the now-sorted bookmarks back into Safari's Bookmarks window. Again, you'll have duplicates, so just delete the originals (which will be grouped above the newly-placed list). I wonder if any of this is scriptable...]"
    If you're like me and you like to keep all of your bookmarks in folders in the Bookmarks bar, then from the Bookmarks window you would open the Bookmarks Bar in a window of its own before doing the above.

  • Help - iPad sync has wiped my desktop Safari bookmarks bar

    Can someone please tell me how I can 'unsync' to restore my desktop Safari bookmarks bar? My wife connected her iPad to my desktop iMac while I was out, and my valuable bookmark bar has been replaced with the one she had on her iPad

    I don't sync bookmarks so I don't know for sure how it would work - but logical reasoning says that if you have Safari bookmarks selected to sync from the Mac to the iPad and back - then if the bookmarks bar that you want to go back to is on your iPad - then sync your iPad to replace what she has done.
    What about a Time Machine Backup - any chance you use Time Machine? I guess that would be too easy.
    I dont know if this would be of any help at all but I found this thread - but you would have to have the bookmarks bar on your iPad the way you want it on the desktop or this will not work.

    AFAIK - you cannot "unsync" what your wife has done.

    I am running 10.8.2 and my Safari bookmarks keep changing to some very old bookmarks i had over a year ago somehow. I replace the bookamrks plist from my time machine backup but they automatically revert back. I dont have a time capsule or anything so these bookmarks are obviously being downloaded over the cloud from somewhere. Please help!

    Yes, it will do no harm, but it is meant for trouble shooting and you should not have to use it all the time.

  • Lost "Home" icon above Safari bookmarks bar

    The "Home" icon in Safari on my wife's MiniMac (OS 10.4.5) has suddenly disappeared. The icon is a small house and is normally shown just above the Safari bookmarks bar, on the left, next to the forward and back URL buttons. Using Safari's Help page has not produced a solution.
    Can anyone help me restore this feature?

  • Why don't I have Safari bookmarks bar on iPad2?

    Can Safari bookmarks bar be imported from iMac to Safari on iPad2?

    On the iPad's Info tab when connected to your computer's iTunes there should be an option to sync bookmarks from Safari on a Mac or PC (from the manual) :
    Sync bookmarks with your computer:
    1  Connect iPad to your computer.
    2  In iTunes, select iPad in the sidebar.
    3  Click the Info tab, select “Sync Safari bookmarks” under Other, then click Apply.

  • How do I delete safari bookmarks bar?

    In Safari on my ipod touch, when I go to bookmarks I have Bookmarks Bar at the top, and then other folders and bookmarks. When I hit edit to delete bookmarks, it won't let me delete bookmarks bar. How do I get rid of it? I think I chose sync bookmarks with safari at one time but now I'd rather not and I have it unchecked but it still won't go away.

    You've tried:
    Edit a bookmark or bookmark folder: Tap , choose the folder that has the
    bookmark or folder you want to edit, then tap Edit. Then do one of the following:
    To make a new folder, tap New Folder.
    To delete a bookmark or folder, tap the red minus sign icon, then tap Delete.
    To reposition a bookmark or folder, drag the 3 horizontal lines icon.
    To edit the name or address, or to put it in a different folder, tap the bookmark or folder.
    When you’re finished, tap Done.
    or
    Sync bookmarks with your computer:
    1 Connect iPod touch to your computer.
    2 In iTunes, select iPod touch in the sidebar.
    3 Click the Info tab, select “Sync … bookmarks” under Web Browser, then click Apply.
    ... and then deselect “Sync … bookmarks” under Web Browser, and then click Apply.

  • A workaround to eliminate Safari "Bookmarks Bar"

    If you sync your bookmarks with your PC based Safari, you get the folders "bookmarks bar" and "bookmarks" on your iPhone. Unnecessary and cluttering, they do not have a "delete" button, nor can they be eliminated from Safari. Annoying. In addition, any bookmarks saved on the iPhone that are not in a folder get saved back on Safari as a folder, not a bookmark. Equally annoying.
    To return to sanity, I sync'ed with a blank Explorer browser, so the offending folders were created there from iPhone. In Explorer I could eliminate the folders and after sycing again, they were now eliminated from the iPhone, freeing up valuable real estate.
    Hope this helps anyone with a similar circumstance.

    Load a site and then drag the image to the left of the address to the toolbar, or choose Add Bookmark from the Bookmarks menu.

  • How arrange Safari Bookmarks Bar

    Using Safari 5.1.3. After I add a bookmark to the Bookmarks Bar, in the Show all Bookmarks window I drag it to the position I prefer. But Safari immediately and automatically moves it back to the top of the list (hence to the far left of the items shown on the Bookmarks Bar itself).
    How can I keep items in the order I prefer?
    I note that I seem to have no difficulty doing this for bookmarks on the Bookmarks Menu.

    Might be corrupted Safari preferences ...
    Go to ~/Library/Preferences
    Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
    Quit, relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, move the .plist file to the Trash, If not, just move it back to the Preferences folder.
    If that didn't help, go to your Safari menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari. Select  the top 5 boxes, click Reset.
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    You can also try deleting the Cache.db file from the  ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari folder.
    It took Reset Safari to fix this (after trying the other methods you recommended).

  • Safari bookmarks bar order

    I cannot keep the bookmarks I save in the bookmarks bar in the order I put them.

    Using:
    Safari 6.0.2 and OSX 10.7.5

    This issue is caused by Safari synchronization in iCloud. You can either disable it in the iCloud preference pane, or use a rather complex workaround found by some ASC users (which perhaps could be improved):
    Back up all data. Disable Safari synchronization on all your devices.
    Rearrange the bookmarks in the Bookmarks window. From the Safari menu bar, select
    File ▹ Export Bookmarks…
    and export your bookmarks. Then delete all bookmarks.
    Re-enable Safari synchronization and let it sync the empty bookmark set to all devices.
    Select
    File ▹ Import Bookmarks…
    to restore the bookmark set you just deleted. It will sync.

  • SAFARI - Bookmarks Bar & Bookmarks Menu

    I don't rember if both of these folders existed on my virgin phone or if they came down with the sync but how do yuo delete a Bookmark bar which doesn't exist on iphone safari?
    Also how do you create folders on the iPhone?

    Just been pondering this myself. I've decided not to sync my bookmarks (having checked the box to allow Safari Bookmark syncing when I first bought the iPhone). I'm creating a new folder structure for bookmarks on my iPhone. However, I'd really love to get rid of the Bookmarks Bar and Bookmarks Menu folders. Clicking on Edit brings up the round delete icon next to all the other folders apart from these two and the History folder! Actually I wouldn't mind deleting the History folder as well, as I never use it. I thought perhaps I'd be allowed to delete these folders once I unchecked the Safari Bookmarks syncing in iTunes, but I still can't get the option to delete them. Anyone know if it's possible? Or is it a feature?

  • Safari bookmarks bar disappears - even when settings set to display

    Not sure if anyone else has this bug, but the bookmarks bar in Safari disappears even after the option is turned on in Settings/Safari.
    Ideas?

    Another detail is that I am set to sync bookmarks via MobileMe. That is working fine.
