Safari help - Bookmarks

i need help.  I somehow set a website i go to often to automatically go to google and i am now unable to access the site.  I was trying to set it as a bookmark but it did not work.

Click "Bookmarks" in the Safari menu bar.
Select "Add NewBookmarks Folder".
Sidebar will open with a new Bookmarks folder "untitled folder" highlighted blue.  Enter a name for it.
Click the "Share" button in the Safari toolbar and select "Add Bookmark"
Click inside the box and a  menu will pop up and select the folder you want the bookmark to be placed.
Click the "Add" button.
At the top of the menu you will see "Favorites" folder. You can select it if you want to add a bookmark to the Favorites bar.
Best.

  • Safari help bookmarks, favorites etc.

    Is there somewhere I can go to get info on Safari, favorites, bookmarks, etc.
    When I bookmark the sites go to favorites and there is no bookmark folder. Should I create a bookmark library and have all bookmarks saved to that folder? If so, how would I do it?
    Thanks,
    Don

  • I upgrades my iPAD  3 to iOS6 and now I can't open my Safari RSS bookmarks.  Any ideas to help?

    I upgrades my iPAD  3 to iOS6 and now I can't open my Safari RSS bookmarks.  Any ideas to help?

    I've installed 3 different RSS readers and none of them "grab" the default flag for RSS feeds.
    I've also uninstalled the Podcasts.app, then re-installed a couple of the readers and Safari still has no idea what to do with them.
    What's most annoying is that Safari declares it doesn't know what to do with a feed and offers to load the iTunes Store so I can pick an RSS Reader to install, and then the iTunes app declares it can't connect to the store (even when I'm already on the store or downloading an application at the time).
    And yeah, I've tried the fixes for the cannot connect errors (Date/Time flip, reinstall bought app, setting DNS to Google even though it was already fine, and clearing Safari's cache just in case).
    This is absolutely pathetic.

  • Safari's bookmark

    I updated mac os x for ppc on 04 03 2006 but I counld not open safari's bookmark, someone help me how can I do repair work?

    Hi
    Although this is the iWeb forum it isnt really for Safari problems.
    Anyway, If I can help you I will try.
    Your bookmarks are stored here: User / Library / Safari / Bookmarks.plist
    Sometimes, you make changes and OS X moves creates a new Bookmarks.plist file and renames the old one Bookmarks.plist.old.
    If you do have Bookmarks.plist.old, deleting .old from the filename may bring back your old bookmarks.
    Move the Bookmarks.plist to your desktop while you do this, so that you have a backup if you need it. If it all works then you can leter delete this file.

  • I have an iPhone 6 with IOS 8.1.3 and when I use the landscape view in Safari, the bookmark page appears and takes up one half of the screen. How can I get rid of the bookmark page so I can have the whole screen to what I am browsing?

    I have an iPhone 6 with IOS 8.1.3. When I go to the landscape view in Safari, the bookmark page appears and takes up one half of the screen. How can I get rid of the bookmark page so I can use the whole screen to what I am browsing?

    OOPS! Too quick on the trigger to ask that question without trying anything. Sorry. Solved it by touching the bookmark icon.

  • The font in Safari's bookmarks bar and tabs bar has suddenly changed

    The font in Safari's bookmarks bar and tabs bar has suddenly changed to a lighter font.  How do I change the font back?  I'm not speaking of the font size/type in the web browser in viewing web pages, but the font in the application itself has changed. It's rather annoying and would like to be able to change it back!  I'm running Safari v5.1.7

    OK, Margie, here's what to do . . .
    First Quit Safari.
    Then Find your User's (Home) folder library. 
    It's hidden, but here's how you find the Home Library:
    Click on the desktop to get the Finder menu.  Then go up to  "Go" in the menu bar, while holding down the option key.
    You'll now see the User Library in the drop down list. Open it, then look for the Fonts folder.
    Take the fonts folder to the desktop.
    Restart Safari.
    Any better?
    (Warning:  This is only for the Users/Home > Library > Fonts folder.  Under no circumstances, should this be done with the SYSTEM > Library > Fonts folder.) 

  • Every so often when using safari my bookmarks disappear and then later the list shows up again.  Does anyone know what causes this and how to fix it?

    Every once in awhile while using safari my bookmarks list disappears.  Later it just shows up again.  Anyone know what causes this and how to fix it?

    I have had exactly the same problem now with two mini iPads.  Everything was tried; 1) restarting; 2) restoring factory settings etc.  NONE worked.  Eventually Apple agreed to replace it.  I have had the replacement now for two to three months and exactly the same thing is happening again. So off to Apple tomorrow to get another replacement.
    I am quite a heavy user of the iPad so wonder if this is something to do with the fault.
    It is so frustrating as sometimes reset works, and then after 10/20/30/40 minutes (you pick) it goes unstable again.

  • Export Safari 1 Bookmarks to Safari 2

    Running OS 10.3.9 on my PowerBook with Safari v1. Need Bookmarks on my new Mac Intel 10.4.4 running Safari v2. Don't want to just clobber the .plist files for Safari in case they are not compatible. Tried Safari Bookmark Exporter, doesn't have a Safari Export option.
    How do you get Safari v1 bookmarks into Safari v2?

    Kenneth,
    For reference, I have Safari 1.3.2 on my Panther iMac and Safari 2.0.3 on my Tiger iMac.
    Just to support Miriam's suggestion without using the term "export"...
    Find the Bookmarks.plist file in ~Library/Safari Folder of your PowerBook, make a copy of it and use the Safari>File>Import Bookmarks feature of your new machine.

  • Mailing a webpage - mistake in Safari Help

    I don't know if anyone else has seen this. I was going to mail a webpage to a friend of mine today, but couldn't remember how to do it. I clicked on Safari Help, typed in "mail a webpage", & got this answer:
    Choose Edit > Mail Contents of This Page, or Edit > Mail Link to This Page.
    The command is actually under the File menu, that is it should say "Choose File > Mail Contents of This Page, or Edit > Mail Link to This Page".
    The question here is, has anyone else noticed this?
    iMac 2 Ghz G5/160Gb internal HD/DVD/RW   Mac OS X (10.4.3)   LaCie 80 GB HD, LaCie DVD burner

    William,
    I noticed it when you pointed it out, but without your observation, would never have known that the difference exists, because I found the Mail feature without the Help documentation.
    Some would call that a "Bug," but I just call it an error in documentation.
    Perhaps Apple Feedback would be appropriate.
    ;~)

  • Where has Safari help gone?

    I recently had problems with getting help viewer to display help on a number of applications. This was cured after I was pointed at a very helpful web site and deleted various preference files and caches. So although that fixed virtually all the problems I still get nothing when I select Safari help.
    Any ideas?

    Help is not an application. I just searched for "help" and several of the relevant posts came up on the first page.
    This is what Discussions Help says:
    "Visit Apple Discussions and navigate to the appropriate hardware or software product forum for which you have an issue or question.
    Search or browse the current discussions and FAQs. It's possible that your question or issue has already been answered by other members.
    If you don't find answers to your issue, click the Post New Topic link within a forum to post your own question to the Apple Discussions community."

  • Trying to repair permission and I always get this: Permissions differ on "Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Resources/Safari.help/Contents/Resources/inde x.html"; should be lrwxr-xr-x ; they are -rwxr-xr-x .

    Trying to repair permission and I always get this:
    Permissions differ on “Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Resources/Safari.help/Contents/Resources/inde x.html”; should be lrwxr-xr-x ; they are -rwxr-xr-x .
    I even fresh install the system and every time I do repair the permission I always end up with this even though it said repaired.
    I figure this is the problem my laptop, sometime it wont save files or documents and it goes in limbo and had to force shutdown and have to restart on the
    booth drive to have it permission repair. I just updated to 10.9.3 and will see if this stop the crashing but repair permission notice is still the same.
    Any feedback please....Thanks

    I see the same thing since the general release of 10.9.3. This did not occur in prior versions.

  • Why does Firefox Help open Safari Help??

    Am trying to remove a certificate from history. Looked into the Help from the header bar and the Help menu is named Safari Help, not one topic mentions Firefox. All I can think is WTF? It simply makes no sense to be using a Safari Help menu in a Firefox browser.
    The Preferences menu for certificates has a delete/mistrust button that does not seem to do anything. By tapping on the arm of my chair I get the same results as tapping on that button.

    You can access the Certificate Manager here:
    *Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Certificates/Encryption: View Certificates
    You can remove the cert8.db file in the Firefox profile folder to remove all intermediate certificates.<br />
    You can only distrust built-in root certificates, but doing this is not recommended.
    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

  • When i open safari the bookmarks page pops up.  how can i stop this from happening?

    when i open safari the bookmarks page pops up.  how can i stop this from happening?

    Under the older iOS, when you opened a blank Safari page, Bookmarks automatically opened. However, with the newer iOS, this does not happen anymore. What iPhone and version of iOS do you have?

  • Why Safari Help frequently "not available?"

    Although I am connected to the Internet, Safari Help topics frequently come up as "not available" as though I were not connected (I've noticed this happens on other Help menus too). Is it my download speed?

    Sometimes just closing and reopening the Help window will clear up the problem. If it doesn't, log out or reboot and try again. Otherwise, you may need to delete the Help cache.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.helpd
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select 
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder selected. Move the selected folder to the Trash. Log out, log back in, and test. Help pages will be slow to load at first.
    If that doesn't work, the problem may be caused by network conditions. It may go away by itself, though I can't say how long you should wait.
       A persistent failure to load help data has been reported as an issue with satellite networks. Test on a different network, if possible. I've also seen at least one report that Photo Stream in iCloud can mysteriously interfere with Help. I'm not sure whether that's true, but try disabling Photo Stream, if applicable.*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
