Safari hover over bookmarks bar

I am running OS X 10.10.2 on my 2014 Retina Macbook Pro. I have a question regarding the bookmarks bar in Safari. Is there any way to make the bookmarks bar appear only when I hover over it? Currently, I can only enable and disable it using shift + command+ b.

Not unless there's a third-party add-on that does that.

Just installed Firefox 18 and now when I hover over bookmarks they get blacked out, why ?

Just installed Firefox 18 and now when I hover over bookmarks they get blacked out, why?
Windows 7 ,Lenovo G580, 8Gb Mem, 4GB AMD radion graphics card, no other changes other than installing FF18

in this case the obvious other candidate would be an incompatible extension - can you disable them one-by-one to find out which one is interfering.
alternatively you could try to reset firefox (this will keep your bookmarks & passwords): [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]]

Curious sound in Safari while mousing over bookmarks bar

I noticed it today at about 1:55 am: whenever my mouse entered the space over either of 2 buttons in the bookmarks bar that happened to be for FOLDERS, the computer played a short sound. It's pitch was C3 and it could best be described as a "saw hit". It was none of the system beeps. It did not occur consistently, but maybe in about 2/3 - 3/4 of the times. The site I was reading happened to be an article on Beliefnet. I never pressed the folder buttons to see what would happen (because I was trying to figure out the pattern first). It did not occur over any of the buttons that were straight LINKS. After 1:57 it never happened again. (going back to Beliefnet later had no effect either).
I have 10.4.6, Safari is Version 2.0.3 (417.9.2)
Anyone has any idea what was going on?
Cube, 2 ibooks Mac OS X (10.4.6)

No, it stopped happening after the said time completely. It occurred only over the 2 buttons that were folders.
I don't think it had to do with the site I was on.
I got the feeling that it was either some "easter egg" type thing or some virus or something like that, i.e. a code that is activated by some constellation of things. I never heard that sound before or after, however it could be a GarageBand sound - but then how/why would it be activated in Safari?
A mystery to me.
BTW, I meant to write "its pitch" and not "it's pitch".

Any way to get favicons in Safari 6.0 bookmarks bar yet?

Lack of favicons in bookmarks bar is the #1 reason (of many) why I don't like using Safari....but as long as Chrome continues to have crash issues with rMBP (and now Flash stopped working in the 22.0.1229.2 dev version), I'm stuck with it for some things. Is there an extension out there that'll enable this and I just haven't been able to find it?

@hpr : I was running the dev version because it provided a LOT more stability with Chrome/Flash (while I waited to receive my "free upgrade to mountain lion" email from apple), and it also addressed the Retina font-rendering issues. Latest official Chrome release was super crashtastic for me -- multiple kernel panics daily. Apparently this is/was An Issue for the new rMBP + Chrome + Flash. Honestly, though, this thing reboots so freaking fast it wasn't even *that* much of an issue.
Finally jumping to Mountain Lion right now...hopefully that'll stabilize things. If not, back to the dev version I go. Chrome has spoiled me - I just can't deal with Safari anymore.
@Justan : Yeaaaaah, I figured that out after I installed it. Ah, well.

Change Status Hover Over Task bar Icon

So I have Lync 2013 Back end with Lync 2013 clients (patched up till January 2015). On some clients, you can hover over the Lync icon in the task bar (not the system tray by the clock) to reveal buttons to change your presence, however on others the buttons
aren't there. For the life of me i can't figure out how to get them there for the machines that they dont appear for.

Hi,
Please double check if the issued Lync clients are Lync Basic version.
I test both Lync full version from Office 2013 and Lync 2013 Basic version, only Lync full version have this function.

Safari reset & my bookmarks bar

does
'resetting' safari effect in anyway the current state of
my bookmarks collections?
thanks

d,
A Safari Reset will not disturb your current Bookmark File.
You can provide additional insurance by backing up the /Users/yourusername/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist file.

Bookmarks bar not displaying

Since migrating from Mobile Me to iCloud I have lost the bookmarks bar in mobile Safari on my iPad. In the list of bookmarks I have two bookmarks bar folders, one is empty, the other contains the correct bookmarks bar links. The bookmarks bars on my two Macs are correctly populated. I suspect Mobile Safari is using the empty folder. I have tried to delete this folder but cannot. Any help would be welcome.

Did you go to Settings>Safari>Always Show Bookmarks Bar>On?
Have you tried quitting Safari and restaring the iPad?
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button.Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and holddown on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in theupper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Hello jo90733,
I would recommend reinstalling Mountain Lion to replace the missing/damaged components of these applications. While the process shouldn't affect any data (images, music, etc) you have on the system, it's always a good idea to have a backup in place prior to reinstalling.
OS X Mountain Lion: Back up your Mac
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11371
OS X Mountain Lion: Reinstall OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10763
Important: You need to be connected to the Internet to reinstall OS X.
Choose Apple menu > Restart. Once your Mac restarts (and the gray screen appears), hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys.
If you’re not connected to the Internet, choose a network from the Wi-Fi menu (in the top-right corner of the screen).
Select Reinstall OS X, and then click Continue.
Follow the onscreen instructions. In the pane where you select a disk, select your current OS X disk (in most cases, it is the only one available).
To start the installation, click Install.
Cheers,
Allen

Safari, when I hover over a link, doesn't show the web address, +Hotmail qu

Hi, two questions.
New to safari, when I hover over a link it doesn't display the web address, is there a way to turn this on or is it not available in Safari.
In regard to Hotmail, is there a way to synch up Hotmail with Mail in leopard so that when I click an email address it allows me to send via hotmail.
If not, how do you find out the email address, because when I click it, just takes me to mail and doesn't allow me to at least view what the email address is, so I can manually send it via Hotmail.
Thanks for your time.

When I hover over the Bookmark Icon for a few seconds it won’t work but when I go straight to the icon and click on it, it will work. Running Windows 7.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Safari bookmarks bar order

I cannot keep the bookmarks I save in the bookmarks bar in the order I put them.
Safari keeps reordering them as he wants, over and over...
any help will be appreciated,
thanks

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 yellow hover-over pop ups

I have no idea how this began or when but it's been a few weeks now.
you know this hover-over bar that appears with more information when you hover over something for a few seconds, well now it has started appearing constantly, all the time, without delay that is, it's really annoying, it obscures allot of the things i'm actually wanting to move my cursor over. like pictures or even the menu buttons.
So far i haven't noticed it in any other applications, just Safari and google chrome.
any ideas?

The popup is called a tooltip or help tag. See
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/OnlineHelp/Concepts/To oltips.html
To turn them off:
defaults write com.apple.Safari WebKitShowsURLsInToolTips 0
http://www.macworld.com/weblogs/macosxhints/2007/02/termtooltips/index.php
states that
defaults write -g NSInitialToolTipDelay -int 10000
From now on, tooltips won’t appear until you’ve hovered for 10 seconds over a given onscreen control for every application (the -g bit means “global change”).
To change only Safari, try:
defaults write com.apple.Safari NSInitialToolTipDelay -int 10000

Problems opening a New Tab in Safari from Bookmark Bar Folder

When I am in Safari and attempt to Open a link to a new tab from the Bookmark Bar that is part of a Folder on the Bookmark bar it does nothing.
I can change the preferences to auto-click for the Bookmark Folders, but then every link loads when I try to access the folder from the Bookmark Bar. Very cool to see lots of pages loading at once, but not what I'm after. Doesn't seem to be a way to just load 1 link from the folder
If its a single link on the Bookmark Bar that has not been organized into a Folder it does work.

You know what? - my Safari works just the same way.... but I'd never noticed before.
I've used apple-click to open single bookmarks from the bar, many times. But have always ( for no particular reason) opened a new tab first ( apple-T ) if I've been looking for bookmarks within a folder.

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.)

How do I get my bookmarks bar back on my safari browser window?

Greetings,
In Safari go to View > Show Toolbar.
Go to View > Customize Toolbar and drag whatever elements you want (like the default set at the bottom) to your tool bar.
Hope that helps.
