Safari new bookmarks replaced by old icloud bookmarks

In order to have my latest bookmarks on safari (osx 10.10.3) I do a manual overwrite, using xmarks, with the option "overwrite local bookmarks with server bookmarks". It works well but a few hours later after the overwrite the safari bookmarks are replaced by the "old" bookmarks stored on icloud.
In other words icloud bookmarks are not synchronized properly and do not reflect the latest changes made on safari on my iMac.
Any ideas? Thank you.

Make sure you have Bookmarks selected in System Preferences / iCloud

  • Body of new message replaced by old message

    New messages in my mail client are having their bodies replaced by old messages (same handful of messages over and over) from July.
    User Mulder suggested running mdimport ~/Library/Mail to someone with a similar problem who was running 10.5. I'm running 10.3 and I don't have mdimport installed. What can I do?

    I have similar problem for few mail messages the contents, the body of the messages are not displayed at all, some mail messages I can not find using search in the mail.app, but I can find them using spotlight, the same messages are fully displayed when opened in finder. I have tried to rebuild spotlight indexes - with no results. I also tried to remove envelope index form usr/library/mai, started mail.app it began to import mail messages but after few minutes it crashed. Any ideas?

  • New iphone (replacing an old one) keeps asking me for an old friend's apple id

    I just replaced my old iPhone 4s with a new one (new number, new job, etc.) After downloading all of my info from the cloud and setting the new one up with my apple id, everything seemed fine. Now, everytime I wake the phone up or open my messaging app or frankly any other app, it asks me for a very old (like 5 years ago, I guess there are songs in iTunes??) apple id. I don't have, nor do I want, the password to that account- is there a way to figure out what needs that password so I can delete it??
    Thank you!
    Chelsea

    There is no easy way to do this.
    You can take all of the apps and music off the phone and sync bits back to the phone to determine which song/app requires the other Apple ID.
    You could also try viewing the properties of each download in iTunes to find out which Apple ID made the purchase.
    In iTunes go to your library > Click on a app or song > Right Click > Get Info > Summary view which Apple ID made the purchase.

  • MM : New product replaces the old product

    Dear Gurus,
    We do replace old products with new prducts very often in some special product scenarios.
    Like new lable or pack comes or the size is changed the old product remain same but sold under different product name.
    Scenario :
    Product A is replaced with Product B but we don't want Product B to be picked up for sales if we have Product A left in stock.
    We want system to consider Product B's stock for MRP but not to be picked up for sales untill Product A completely finishes.
    At present we block product B which removes this product from MRP process so  this may increase a dnager of putting extra demand.
    What we want is the functionality of phase in , phase out not sure OR MRP on hold location which allows functionality of MRP processing and stock booking infor Product B  but no sales untill product A completely finishes.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    How bout you try doing the below.
    1) Follow Anthony's method of using the Follow-up matl field. In Product A, put in Product B in the follow-up matl field.
    2) For both Products, exclude storage locations from MRP, so that you do not reorder extra stocks for both Products.
    3) Once product A quantity is 0, remove exclude storage locations from MRP for Product B
    4) Set Xplant Material Status for Product A, so users will not use it again. Or Flag it for deletion.
    Hope this helps.

  • TS4036 i need to restore my new phone from my old icloud backup

    i need to restore my phone with my icloud backup. my phone had to be set up as a new phone to install the newest opperating system , now i can not retreave my old information backed up in icloud

    To restore from your iCloud backup, go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  Then go through the setup screens on your phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup.  Be sure it is connected to wifi and your charger while it is restoring the backup.

  • Safari new tab flicker of old image residue

    Can anyone explain why, when i first open safari and double click to open a new tab, just before the Top Sites page loads i get a flicker of a partly scrambled image? This image is usually, but not always, of a site or screen that has just previously been open in the display, sometimes from a webpage, sometimes from a window such as system preferences. Occasionally the scrambled image is nothing that has been on my screen in the last 24hrs, as far as i can remember. This isn't a problem, per se, but a funny quirk that makes me wonder if there is something amiss with my Macbook. How is this image left hanging around to then briefly re-appear in a scrambled format?

    Hello folks,
    I have had this problem for a while now.  The problem ONLY occurs with Safari if I open a new tab and have preferences set to top sites.  What I see when I open a new tab is pixelization and/or flickering.  I thought it was hardware issue so I called Apple. We ran HW tests and they told me it was not. They advised it was likely a plugin or software issue.  We re-installed Snow Leopard (maintaing all data) and that did not help. We did tons of other things, all to no avail.  Apple suggested I do a WIPE and start over.  They also suggested I do NOT reimage from my time machine backup as to not bring back whatever plugin or SW
    So I finally got around to that this weekend.  I am on an essentially virgin system. The only two apps I installed are Handbrake and Skype.  I have not done any flash update, plugins or anything else.   The problem still exists
    I have an excellent and short video capture that shows this but not sure how I can upload that here.
    I guess from reading this post that I should go to Lion - which is on my list of things to do but need to check on compatibility of some SW/HW first.
    OH btw, some specifics:  Imac 27" Snow Leopard, 12GB Ram, all SW is up to date
    Just thought I would throw this out there...

  • Whats the difference between the old iCloud and the new iCloud drive?

    Can anybody explain the difference between the two?  The new iCloud drive does nothing new, same as the old iCloud. 

    Did you read the page that Peter provided? See bold text in paragraph below - you open an iCloud enabled app to see the files.
    Storing files in iCloud is simple. Just as it should be.
    To upload your files to iCloud, simply drag them into the iCloud Drive on your Mac running OS X Yosemite or PC running Windows 7 or later. Or start a new document using an iCloud-enabled app on your iOS device. Then you’ll be able to access those documents from all your devices.

  • Why is it that when I add a new bookmark, it replaces one of my old ones?

    I have a good number of bookmarks in Firefox. I want to add more, but each time I add a new one, it replaces the last bookmark I added with the new one. That old bookmark is then gone from my list.
    Also, normally when I hit "bookmark this page," the box that pops up will automatically be populated with the page title I am trying to bookmark...however, now when I try to add a new bookmark, the box is populated with information from the last bookmark I added.
    I have version 3.0.7 for Mac. I really don't want to lose my old bookmarks, and I have a lot of windows I keep open now because there are pages I want to bookmark, but can't.
    Any advice is appreciated.

    This can be caused by a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Cant add new new bookmark in Safari

    Quitting Safari after adding a new bookmark results in losing the bookmark when I reopen Safari. Quitting Safari after deleting a bookmark results in the deleted bookmark reappearing when I reopen Safari. Any suggestions for fixing this problem.  This problem does not occur if I close but do not quit Safari.
    OS is 10.7.4
    Safari 5.1.7
    2.5.3 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo MacMini
    4GB Memory

    Quit Safari. Disable bookmark synchronization, if applicable.
    Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Go to Folder… from the Finder menu bar. Copy the following line into the text box that opens, then press return:
    ~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist
    Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the Finder window open. Relaunch Safari. Select File ▹ Import Bookmarks from the Safari menu bar. Import from the bookmarks file you moved to the Desktop. Test. If Safari now performs normally, you can delete the old bookmarks file. Otherwise, quit Safari again and put back the file you moved, replacing the newer one with the same name. Close the Finder window and post again.

  • We have a new iPad Mini.  I cannot save a new Bookmark.  In Safari, I go to "Share" and select "Add a Bookmark" yet when I click on the Bookmarks icon, my saved Bookmark is not there.  Am I doing something wrong?

    We have a new iPad Mini, and I'm having inconsistent results using Bookmarks in the Safari icon.
    For a long time, on the iPad, I could only see five items under the Bookmark icons and the Bookmarks Bar was empty. 
    Occasionally, in Safari, the iPad would pick up and display all of the Bookmarks from the Safari browser on my iMac. 
    Other times, there are only a bare few Bookmarks available on the iPad, the Bookmarks Bar goes away and I cannot save a new Bookmark.  It looks like I can save one, but I cannot find it after allegedly saving. 
    Then, all of the Bookmarks will come back and I can save a new Bookmark again. We can't figure out why all of the Bookmarks will show and then they won't.
    I want to think this involves iCloud some way, but for right now, I'm stumped.  Perhaps we're just too inexperienced and haven't come around the learning curve yet.
    Thanks for any help.
    Steve

    No, I see the three areas at the bottom of the Bookmark area that you refer to, but that also highlights an issue.  When I want to save a story to my Reading List and click on Share then "Add to Reading List" then go back to look at what is stored in the Reading List, my recently-saved item is not there.
    I looked thru the History tab and the Reading List tab and have been in the Bookmark tab.  But even when I Save a Bookmark, that newly-saved Bookmark does not show up in the Bookmark area.
    But then again, the next day (and actually just in the last half-hour) all of the functionality came back.  When I look at the Bookmarks, suddenly, again, all of the Bookmarks that are on my Safari browser on my iMac are now there, and I can now Save a Bookmark.
    It keeps coming in and out and that is what is driving me a little nuts.
    Thanks.

  • Osx 10.7.4   safari 6.0  when I add a new bookmark to the "bookmarks menu" it is added somewhere in the middle instead of at the end of the list.  this just started a few days ago after an update.  Has anyone else noticed this?.

    Just for those who are interested, this is what cleared the "bookmark menu"  trbl I had.
    Open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Bookmarks, then reselect it.
    Quit and relaunch Safari. Try a bookmark again.

  • How do I delete my iCloud bookmarks and upload a new bookmark file

    While managing my bookmarks, I deleted a bookmarks folder in my bookmarks bar. Just then the infamous beachball started and a dialog popped up saying my bookmarks were syncing with iCloud. Then Safari crashed. After opening it, all my bookmarks bar bookmarks were gone. Thankfully, I had a backup of the bookmarks, however, I don't want to merge with the bookmarks on iCloud, fearing they're screwed up. How do I delete or overwrite my iCloud bookmarks and upload my new corrected version?

    Done that and still DOES NOT work for me! I wiped out my bookmarks in ALL my devices (iPhone 4, iPad 2, MBP, and iMac). Of course, I made backups of my bookmars prior of wiping it out and proceeded to wait 4 days to make sure iCloud had enough time to clear itself up alright. After seeing that I didn't get no more entries synched to any of my devices I proceeded to restore my bookmarks first to my iMac. Then I waited and yes, a few minutes later it synch correctly into my MBP however, when it came to my iOS devices it came over alright except it came over with dupplicates AGAIN!!!! So, at this point I just went and clean up all those entries from my iPhone and iPad. Luckily they stayed like that and no further dupplicates were created.
    Now, because I don't feel iCloud is working correctly, at least for me, with my Safari Bookmarks and Notes, I have left those two apps untoched. But this week I added a new bookmark into a folder from my iPhone 4... well, guess what? The new bookmark after 3 days NEVER showed up in my other devices! Once again, I proceeded to remove that entry from my iPhone 4 and added it from my iPad 2... SAME results. Ok... the frustration continues... I removed the bookmark from my iPad and added it from my iMac and guess what happen next? The new bookmark showed up in my MBP!!!! It didn't show up in the same location as I placed it from my iMac. It showed up at the root top level of my bookmarks... so, a la Microsoft, I proceeded to move it to its appropriate folder as I have it in my iMac. So far, so good. Then I proceeded to check my iPad and iPhone and the new bookmark is NOWHERE to be found!!! Isn't this wonderful how iCloud works!??? I love the fact that it frustrates me and create unncessary work and waste of time and lack of efficiency and effectiveness!
    Yesterday I added a new note from my iPhone and guess what happened... the new note never showed up in ANY of my other devices!!!! So, once again, I proceeded to remove that new note and add it from my iPad. A few minutes later... I had multiple duplicates of Notes in my iPad and the new note was nowhere to be found in any of my other devices inspite of the fact I have full iCloud features enabled! So, I then proceeded to clean up the extra duplicate entries from my iPad... and what happened next was just so kewl... ALL, I mean ALL my notes I had in my other devices were WIPED OUT!!!! But now things looks clean and tidy from my iPad!!! Go figure! I waited to see if they will sync to my other devices and NOTHING!
    At this point I was so fuming you could fry an egg on my forehead of the frustration! So, I proceeded to wipe--out my notes from my iPad and waited to make sure no more duplcates were going to show-up. I then went to my iMac and from there launched TimeMachine and restore my notes and then created the new note and wala... now it shows OK in ALL my devices! So, the morale of the story for me is... don't enter Bookmarks from my iOS devices. Do it from my Mac machines... at least they'll be (after manually moving the entry from the other machine) in sync and do not add any new notes from any iOS device but to it from my iMac or MBP so that it syncs OK...
    Isn't this a wonderful story of how great and amazing iCloud works? Wow... I'm even impress with myself... but I've been close in more than once occassion of using a baseball bat and my devices as a Piñata from the frustration

  • A week or so ago I upgraded some apple software and now Safari drops my news bookmarks folder. I can restore it from Time Machine but it will not stay in place. Suggestions?

    My iMac, running 10.10.3 seems to have an interesting issue.  Since the last round of apple updates[ including photos 1.0]safari has been dropping my "News" bookmarks folder.  It disappears on restart or when trying to add a bookmark to any folder. I am able to restore it with time machine and it will stay in place until all of a sudden .I notice it is once again gone.  Restore and its back.  Quite a pain in the butt.  Any suggestions on a more permanent fix would be appreciated.

    Thanks, wife has iPad on holiday so I could not check it. iCloud occurred to me but I am fairly new to it as prior to iPad we had no need of it.  Thanks again Linc,   I've tried it a couple of times this afternoon and it seems to be sticking around.  Hugh
