Safari ios 8 bookmarks

The dropdown book bookmarks icon wont auto disapear in safari on ipad air after ios8 update. It works using vertical view but not horizontal view. anyone else got this bug?

I recently upgraded Mountain Lion to Mavericks. Until now it's been disappointing. I read about these so-called syncing features too late.
See How to locally sync an iPhone with OS X Mavericks? iCloud is NOT an option.

Is there a way to have bookmark folders automatically collapsed in Safari when adding bookmarks? This would be a huge convenience in navigating to the right folder w/o having to deal with an eye chart of a folder tree.

Is there a way to have bookmark folders automatically collapsed in Safari when adding bookmarks? This would be a huge convenience in navigating to the right folder w/o having to deal with an eye chart of a folder tree.

Myself as well...
I think it is a tremendous problem. Im my case it is extremelly important to manage, organize and sort favorites.
I am new to Mac and safari... and I spent a lot of time researching a solution for that thinking it was me that couldnt find this option. I like to use safari because of the "gestures". This is great. But when it comes to favorites, safari is a nightmare!!!
Also, I use to like the option in Firefox that we can have the leftside bar with the favorites and navigate to the links in the right. In safari the links are open in the full page. And then we need to come back to the favorite everytime.
I would be glad if someone could come out with good solution or suggestions how to deal with it in fafari.

Why can't I enlarge safari bar and bookmarks bar so the print is larger. I can only do this if I change resolution on display. I do not want to make my 27" smaller. Any comments?

After just installing Mountain Lion on mid 2011 iMac 27" I find it does not allow increasing size of font for Safari bar and Bookmarks bar. The print is so small it is difficult to see. I can change resolution of screen but the the size of the screen becomes smaller. Not what I had in mind when I bought this iMac. Is there any fix out there and is Apple working on this problem? Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks.

Doesn't display dialog to open file (Safari iOS 8.1)

Hello.
There is some repeatable problem in Safari iOS 8.1:
Safari does not display a dialog to open a file (archive .zip for example) after downloading it from hosting via temporary direct link (see screenshot 1 - front page),
although the correct dialog form on the page can be seen in miniatures layer (see screenshot 2 - miniature).
So I can't open downloaded .zip file in any other application, because I can't see any control elements on the front page.
Thanks
& kind regards.

I seem to have resolved the problem, though the solution is very surprising.
I tried Settings > Safari > Names and Passwords.
I got the "Passcode Lock Suggested" message, so I cancelled. Names and Passwords is still off.
BUT now I'm still signed on when I open a new tab.
Also, I'm still signed on when I turn the iPad off and on again, which never used to happen.
Another behaviour it changed was when you close the first window (using the "double square" icon to reveal the hidden close button). That used to bring up Private Browsing (until the next time you turn the iPad on), but now it produces a blank Safari page (a good thing) and frequently visited sites (a very bad thing, since all tracking options are off, to the best of my understanding).
I'm also getting Search Engine hints from Google, even though that option's turned off.
In the OP, I reported "I enabled the Favorites bar to stop the bug which makes tab 1 go blank when tab 2 is closed." Not quite true. The bug happens less often, but still occurs. Sometimes it's fixed by tapping the bar at the top, but more often I have to go to menu and reselect Safari.
Overall, Safari is obviously very buggy, I'm amazed that it has been released without testing.

Where are Safari 1.x bookmarks, I need to backup bad system in FW Disk Mode

My friend has a PowerBook G4 with a pretty corrupt OS 10.3 on it. I'm praying I'll be able to get it started in FireWire Target Disk Mode so I can backup files, then I'll re-install the OS.
Where would I find Safari 1.x bookmarks? Can I just copy a file to backup the bookmarks and possibly later restore them?
(I'm a tech-y person so feel free to give me complicated instructions, I'll probably understand them)

Hi Jason,
You can find the Bookmarks in the following location.
Home_Folder>Library>Safari Folder>Bookmarks.plist
You can put it on a USB stick or when it is still possible to sent the file in a folder to a e-mail address, for instance your e-mail. Later when everything is working well again you can sent it back to your friend an swap the Bookmarks.plist file with the one that is in the NEW installed system.
Good luck ...

I have been infected by trove adware, I was able to remove it, but I couldn't get default setting of safari and keeping bookmarks, saved passwords, ..etc

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You may have installed the "Trovi," "Conduit," or "SearchProtect" ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Besides the files listed in the linked support article, you may also need to remove these files in the same way:
~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/searchplugins/MyBrand.xml
~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/External Extensions/fjadmdmahkpbhgbmmkiiaanlnlekelmn.json
~/Library/Application Support/Mozilla/Extensions/{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}/[email protected]
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, then you may have one of the other kinds of adware covered by the support article. Follow the rest of the instructions in the article.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
"SearchProtect" may be distributed along with two other applications: "MacKeeper," which is a scam, and "ZipCloud," which, if not actually a scam, has a dubious reputation. Ask if you need instructions to remove those items.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

I do not have the pages icon on the bottom right of Safari ios 7. When I press the plus sign at the top right I see 'private' on the bottom left side but there are no buttons on the bottom right at all. I am trying to get Safari to have the tab Rolodex

I am super frustrated with Safari in ios 7. I do not have the pages icon on the bottom right of Safari ios 7. When I press the plus sign at the top right I see 'private' on the bottom left side but there are no buttons on the bottom right at all. I am trying to get Safari to have the tab Rolodex look of the tabbed windows. So I can see the pages. Hope this is making sense. Why am I not seeing the pages button on the bottom right of Safari?
Thanks!

Bummer! Hopefully this will change in the future. At least I know now that I am not crazy for not seeing the pages icon! Thanks so much :)

Unable to playback audio on Safari iOS

Hi,
I am testing a simple Edge Animate animation that it has only 1 audio file and 1 simple button with audio playback action. Nothing more.
I test it on Safari Mac OS and works normal, but I am unable to make it work on Safari iOS 7 for the iPad.
Nothing happens when I touch the button. I tried with preload audio and not, with MP3 and M4A, and my browser works OK as a regular HTML5 audio playback file works simply fine. Now I am clueless.
I am using Edge Animate 4.1 for Mac OS 10.9
Thanks
Ignacio

I am using 2014.1 that creates 5.0 Edge Animate files according to what I see in the edge.js files. I think it's the latests as Creative Cloud doesn't offer me any other update so far...
I want to transform this HTML into a phonegap app, and it's not working there either, so I have no interest on testing it on Chrome, also this may work on Safari, so I'm only interested on that, I don't care about other browsers...
Same thing in Edge Animate CC 2014 works perfectly. I have read in other threads of this forum that there are some issues with latest version and audio playback on Safari iOS.

Sync iOS Reading List with Safari without affecting Bookmarks

Hello,
I read several news sources on my iPhone 4 and frequently want to read the same article on my Macbook Pro with Safari. Currently, I email the website link to myself from my iPhone but I think the Reading List feature that syncs over iCloud would be far more elegant. The problem is that I don't want to merge or interrelate my iPhone and Safari bookmarks.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I would like to know this as well. Specifically, I want to sync my iPhone 4 reading list to Safari on my Macbook Pro.

Safari wont open bookmarked page, "invalid address"

Problem with iPad2. Safari is my browser. Running latest ios.
I have had my photobucket page saved as a bookmark for a couple of years. And until recently no problems accessing photobucket thru that bookmarked url.
But recently, when i select that bookmark, the photobucket page opens briefly and then a popup message says "safari cant open this page, address is invalid". Meanwhile the page is clearly open there in the background, with various items changing etc as normal. I clicked the OK button in the message, but it immediately reappears and will not go away. Safari is then effectively stuck and the only way i can clear it and navigate to any other url is to close, open email, find a link to another url, and click that, this starts Safari on a second page and i can then close both pages if I am quick.
PITA!
I have tried clearing history, cookies, and deleted the original bookmark and searched for photobucket and clicked on the link in the search results, but as soon as i get to the photobucket page the same thing happens.
I can access the same photobucket page via my PC without any such problems. So its clearly a problem with Safari or something on my iPad.
Any ideas on how to solve this?
Thanks!

It seems to be caused by Javascript. If you disable it in settings/safari the pop up window will not appear. However the drop down menus etc will not work without Javascript. Best option is to download "Chrome" or "Mercury" or wait for Photobucket to fix it:)
If you enable the "De Bug" console it will sometimes work. I am currently using an Ipad 1 with OS 5.1.1 but the problem also happens on an Ipad 3 with OS 7

Delete Favorites ICONS Safari iOS 8

I know how to delete my bookmarks, but how do I delete the Favorites Icons in Safari on my iPad with iOS 8?

Ok well you need to delete the bookmarks you have saved in the FAVOURITES folder of your Bookmarks to remove the icons. If you don't wish to delete them visit the pages first, save them again in an alternative location/folder and then delete from the FAVOURITES folder of your bookmarks.
Oh and by the way, if you've got iOS 8 you're doing very well as they've only just released iOS 7 last month.

Steve

ISO 6 Safari will not bookmark web pages

I have upgraded to IOS 6 on my iPhone four, when I try to bookmark a web page in Safari it will not save the web page. I have turned off ICloud in settings, because Safari is alway syncing with iCloud. But this has not solved the problem. I wish I had not up graded to IOS 6, what is wrong with Apple crap Safari, Crap maps and phone seems to be slower with battery drain. What is going on? Can anyone help me. It is really starting to pee me off because I cannot bookmark any web sites and as a consequence I am losing loads of information.

Hi,
It sounds like your bookmarks file might have become corrupt.
Before checking the bookmarks file, trash the Safari preferences file just to make sure that is not affecting things:
/Users/YourUsername/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
If that makes no difference, try this:
1 Export your Safari bookmarks via the Safari File menu -> Export Bookmarks...
2 Quit Safari
3 Move /Users/YourUsername/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist onto your Desktop
4 Restart Safari and use File menu -> Import Bookmarks... to import the bookmark file you saved in step 1.
If that does allow you to save sites again, you can trash the Bookmarks.plist file you moved to the Desktop in step 3.
Let us know how you get on and good luck.

IPad Safari IOS 5 window.close() closing wrong window

When I want to close the child window(although now they open as tabs) in the parent window with javascript window.close(),the parent window was closed.
Is this a bug or have any solution?
Safari/7534.48.3
My script:
<script type="text/javascript">
var subWin1 = null;
function popSub() {
subWin = window.open('myurl,'subWin1','height=200,width=200');
function closeSub() {
subWin.close();
</script>

I'm having the exact same problem. On iPad Safari on iOS 5 attempting to close a popup window with close() is causing the parent window to close instead. Every other browser, including iPhone Safari on iOS 5 it works fine. I've been trying to come up with a workaround but haven't found anything yet. If anyone can find a workaround please post.

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.

Any way to get Safari to handle bookmarks like Firefox?

I'm looking for one feature.
Like many, I keep a folder in each of my bookmarks on the Bookmark Bar. I click on the item, and a list of URLs roll down. But in Safari, you must click on each folder to get it to open.
When I click on the Firefox bookmarks bar, the folders roll down automatically as I move my cursor across the row of bookmark folders. It's very convenient.
Is there any way to give this functionality to Safari?

Apparently not. A big advantage to Firefox.
