Safari keeps reverting to old bookmarks

I learned to replace the Library/Safari/bookmarks.plist with one from my Time Machine. It works, but only temporarily. Every few days, it reverts back to the same old ancient set of bookmarks !!! Do I need to replace something else ??

I think I did what you suggested -- but when I went back to enable sync on my phone, suddenly the computer seemed to jump back to the old bookmarks. So, I'm keeping sync off on the phone -- i don't need the bookmarks there anyway -- and see if the computer stays OK -- ??? I'll try the whole process again, another day ! Thanks again for your time ~

After updating to OS 10.9.2 Safari shows two year old Bookmarks?!

After updating to OS 10.9.2 Safari shows two year old Bookmarks.
My Sysad reconstructed the actual bookmarks this morning from the backup.
Than I tried to delete a single bookmark and right now Safari shows again the two years old bookmarks?!

Happen to me too. Looks like a Bug. Installed 10.9.2 and it turned on Safari in the iCloud Sytem Preferences.
Thank god I had a backup. And then my wife logged into the same computer and it messed them up again.
I wish I knew where the iCloud bookmark file was. I've tried goggling it, ut no luck.
So If at one point in time if you turn it on it uploads the bookmark file somewere in the cloud, then you turn it off then change your bookmarks to something differnet it's OK. Just don't turn it on again.
Hopefully the bug was on the software update!

Safari reverted to old bookmarks bar -- where is current bookmarks bar?

Genius bar did an archival install of mountain lion after I had 2 hard drive replacements. Current bookmarks bar was installed. Safari crashed and now have very old bookmarks bar showing. Where is my newest bookmarks bar?

What backups do you have?

Numbers file keeps reverting to old version

I use Numbers (Version 3.5.2) on my MacBook Pro running (Yosemite 10.10.2) and also on my iPad air (running iOS 8.1.3) and iPhone 6 (running iOS 8.1.3). I have a file that I use to keep track of grades that is used across all three devices. In the last month the file keeps reverting back to an old version of the file. After this happens I can go into Numbers on Mac and Select "Revert to..." and select the correct version of the file. I did this yesterday and deliberately reverted to the correct version on the Mac and saved, then opened the iPad, made sure it had the correct version, made a minor change and closed the file. I then opened on the iPhone made sure it was the correct version, made a minor change and saved. I then reopened on the Mac it was the correct version and included the minor changes made on the iPad and iPhone. I saved and then closed the file. Today when I open the file on my Mac, it is back to a version that is over a month old. I again used the "Revert to.." command and was able to get back to the correct version of the file from yesterday. I can't figure out why it keeps reverting to an old version. At first I thought it was pulling in an old version from the iPad or iPhone, but after the experiment yesterday that does not seem likely. Has anyone else had this problem? It is making me seriously question the use of Numbers with documents in the cloud as I can not be certain that the data in the file is correct.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Dreamweaver template (.dwt) keeps reverting to old version after reopening CS3

I work locally on all files and upload as needed. After chaging template and applying it, I can upload all associated pages just fine. If I close DW and reopen, the old version of the template is there without any changes -- even though I saved the template.
Also, updating the template will change all other web pages except index.html.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Sure. No nested templates to my knowledge -- especially since I only have one template. Look like I have some regions in my index.html that don't match the .dwt -- even though the .dwt was created from the .html. When I tried to update the .html, it really screws up the content. Let's kill the 1st bird first -- why my ,dwt file keeps reverting to an old version. Here is the code for the template. Again, thank you!

Safari keeps crashing after 1st bookmarks sync with Chrome

Hi,
today I updated the iCloud software on my PC to version 3.0 and afterwards setup the new bookmark syncing feature with Chrome. After the first sync both my iOS devices (iPad 3 and iPhone 5 running iOS 7.0) don't run Safari anymore. It takes about 5 seconds after you open the app until it crashes. I can neither enter the Safari preference pane nor disable Safari syncing in the iCloud pref pane...
What should I do? Is there a way to reset iClouds bookmarks?? It's really annoying as I can't use Safari on my iOS devices anymore right now -.-

Exactly same Problem
I have same problem guys.
Since yesterday afternoon, Every time i opened safari on my iPhone and pressed either iCloud tab button on the bottom right or try type on the address bar, Safari crashed. After a long read on internet I went to the iCloud settings and turned off the switch for safari. Once i opened safari it worked fine.
I called Apple support and discussed this issue and we tried many things like reset the phone and set it up as a new device, signing on an other iPhone with my iCloud details to see if it was the device, but in the end we found that the problem was with iCloud account and not the device related because safari started crashing on that device too. It seems like that safari data on my iCloud got corrupted. I read some forums last years where a few users experience a similar issue.
Now can somebody suggest me any workaround to fix this. Since i cannot open safari on my iPhone, i went on my macbook and pressed the iCloud tab button to see which iCloud tabs were opened on my iPhone. it showed two tabs one with blank line but when i press on the line, it takes me to macupdate website.
Could these two tabs be the the culprit that they are still showing on my iPhone? Can I ask apple to reset my iCloud profile? If i wait 7 days for these two tabs to clear (if they clear), will my safari start working again on iPhone? Safari is working fine on macbook though.
Have you managed to sort out your problem if so, how?
Thanks

It unes keeps reverting to old email adddress

Hi I have recently updated my e mail address and changed my I tunes account to the new address but every time I log on the MAC presents the original account details and I have to manually change the e mail. Also it keeps brininging up the start up tutorial options every time I log in can I stop this. Thanks for reading!

This would be a question for Yahoo.

HT201320 Can't reset email password in settings, keeps reverting to old password

Changed yahoo mail password due to being spoofed I think. When I change it in IPad settings, it will verify ok but when go back to the settings it is the old password in mail settings.

This would be a question for Yahoo.

Iphone 4 ios6 keeps reverting to old e-mail password! :(

Subject says it all!
I notice it after a few days when my outgoing mail starts piling up in the Outbox.
I go into settings, update the password, and it's good for a few days.
I ALREADY DELETED the account and added it back, problem still persists.

If your e-mail account settings arent sticking, thats a issue with your e-mail provider, which from the sounds of it is a third party provider, and not Apple, if that is the case, that you are using a 3rd party e-mail provider you must contact them because that would make it an issue unrelated to apple, but i guess one thing you could try before that just for giggles is a hard reset. Hold the Sleep/Wake Button, and the Home button until you see the Apple logo appear, then go into your mail check your settings and see what happens

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.

Safari keeps opening old pages

Safari keeps opeing old pages even though I have closed them. It seems like I have several versions of safari open, but I don't think I do. I just did the latest software update and the problem continues.

Cdf15,
You can empty the caches in Safari by pressing Option+Command+E keys. This will likely stop the behavior.
You might have to remove Safari plist files from User Library (might be hidden hold down option key under Finder window Go Menu>Library>Preferences>com.apple.Safari.plist.
Place plist on desktop or in Trash without emptying trash, then reopen Safari. This will recreate a new plist.
Finally you can "Reset Safari" which will remove various Safari settings. "Reset SafarI" is available under the "Safari" Menu…
Hope this helps, Greg

Why would you delete your iCloud account for a password change with your Yahoo account?
Regardless, if no problem re-creating your iCloud account on your iPad, contact Yahoo technical support.

How do you update it? Basically what has happened my password was disabled for "security reasons" on sunday (21/10/12), so i tried to reset it, but for some reason i couldnt get into my old email (probably because i havent used it for 2 years), so i read on here i could swap it to a new email that i currently use (which is what i have done) ive swapped everythin over to it (facetime, iCloud etc) but keeps coming up with old email and asking for password

Since transfering to a new PC (Windows 8) all my Bookmarks & options settings keep reverting to the initial "Defaults" whenever I restart

Since transferring to a new PC (Windows 8) all my Bookmarks & options settings keep reverting to the initial "Defaults" whenever I restart.
This affects all my Bookmarks; Menu Bar settings; Add-on settings; history; Home Page et al
In fact everything

What files did you transfer to the new computer?
It sounds that there is a problem with the file that stores the preferences.
Delete possible user.js and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
