Safari for iOS7 on iPad Bookmarks

For some reason, my bookmarks on Safari for iPad are labeled "Favorites" with the star next to it, "History" with the clock next to it, then "Favorites" again with the folder next to it. I can't edit or delete the second "Favorites" folder and it is the one that adds my bookmarked pages to the bookmarks bar but you can see how it would be confusing having two folders with the same name, I keep putting the pages accidentally in the wrong one and don't realize it then can't find it later because I'm expecting it to be on the bookmarks bar or in the "Favorites" folder! Then I go through and see I have the same page saved 3 times in the wrong folder. It's frustrating!! Why can't I edit this second "Favorites" folder to change the name and make it less confusing???

Close Safari completely and reboot the iPad.
Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Safari app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Safari problem: iOS7 on iPad - Apple ID Support - Stuck on "Are you sure you want to submit this form again?"

    Safari problem: iOS7 on iPad - Apple ID Support - Stuck on "Are you sure you want to submit this form again?"
    Now Safari is totally stuck. Neither the "submit" nor the "cancel" button works.
    Since verifying Apple ID requires Safari (Google Chrome doesn't work because verifying email links only to Safari), it is impossible for me to change my Apple ID preferences.
    HELP!!!!

  • Website opens new tabs in Safari for iOS7; popup blocker is on

    How can I stop a website from spontaneously opening new tabs? I have the popup blocker on, but it doesn't prevent ads from popping up in new tabs on some websites.
    Also, is there a way to stop banner ads from spontaneously opening the App Store?
    Thanks!

    1. Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data
    2. Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo
    Note: Keep away from those web site

  • How to make Safari on iPad Mini Private and make the display the same as iPhone5 Safari App (iOS7)

    Started when I attempted to turn on private browsing on ipad mini (ios7) as I noticed I was able to do on the iphone5 (ios7) when I clicked the icon on the bottom right to view other tabs. When I press the button on the iPhone the current tab drops back in a cool "3D stack of cards" type of view and there is an option located in the bottom left corner PRIVATE. You can also add a new tab by pressing + in the center bottom.
    The setup/view is completely different in safari app on the ipad mini. To add a new tab there is a + symbol at the TOP and it does not open in the above 3D style mentioned. There is no option for private, nor is there an option in Settings>Safari>Privacy. Tech support unable to assist in a chat. Anyone know how to resolve or have an explanation as to why you cannot? Searching threads and general help online I have read that you are in fact supposed to be able to browse in PRIVATE mode on the ipad mini, and I would also like to have the same visual setup as I view on the iPhone5. 

    The deck of cards is not available on the mini. Private browsing is. Tap the + sign and look in the lower left corner. With the keyboard up it's above the  Q.

  • YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads.

    YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads, if it's even loading at all.
    I do not know if it's relevant or not, but I got a message on my ipad while on safari saying that my iPhone has a virus. I looked it up and it seems it might have just been an ad from the website I was on, but it happened around the same time YouTube stopped working.

    You will find that using the YouTube app will provide a better viewing experience for YouTube videos.

  • Does anyone know how to do a text search in the new Safari for iPad iOS 7?

    Does anyone know how to do a text search in the new Safari for iPad iOS 7?

    The feature has been removed to make safari even less useable. You need to download a third party browser like atomic web browser to get the functionality you want back.
    Like many new IOS 7 "features", safari on the ipad is a FAIL.
    At least you can now bury safari in a folder containing hundreds of icons that you can only view 9 at a time.

  • Is it possible to clear the entire Bookmarks list at one time in Safari for Windows?

    Hello. Is it possible to clear the entire Bookmarks list at one time in Safari for Windows? I would like to continue to use the Safari browser even though I have Windows 7 as the operating system on my notebook. When I try to delete bookmark entries one at a time, after deleting several, errors start popping up in the browser. Can I reinstall Safari without the Bookmarks I've built up? Please help a humbled Safari user.

    Are you sure that you can change the permissions of symlinks themselves? I think I've tried to make files read-only via symlinks on a local server but ended up using bindfs because it wasn't possible. Even if you can, symlinking everything that might be necessary for a given environment would not be ideal, plus I don't think symlinks can be used across different filesystems.
    If a real-life human can figure out if it's he/she is in a chroot and break out of it, then he/she can write a script to do the same. I want a sandbox that could run malicious code with no effect on the system (if that's possible). Also, I think if the chroot idea were truly feasible, makepkg would have been using it for years already to simply install packages in the chroot as you normally would and then package them. There would also be several sandbox applications that could run applications safely. So far I have yet to find any.
    I admit that I haven't looked into using a chroot in detail though and of course I may have missed some application which creates such a setup. Right now I think using per-application namespaces with fuse seems the most promising but I won't know until I've finished implementing a test application. If it turns out that it's a dead end I'll take harder look at chroot but it really doesn't seem to be able to do what I want.

  • Can I turn off tab in the new Safari for ipad?

    I want to turn off the tabs in the new Safari for my iPad 2. I have gone to the settings in Safari and can only select the types of tabs, why can't I turn tabs off?

    You cannot turn the feature off. This is the way that Apple has now designed for it to work. If you would like to let Apple know how you feel about it, leave feedback here.
