Sorting Safari activities in iOS 8

I ran a brief search for this but haven't found much... I like the ability to sort the activities in Safari (not sure if the option to do so was available before iOS 8) but Safari refuses to safe my sort. I never print and rarely add things to my reading list so I had hoped to push those to the far right out of the way. I do copy quite often so I hoped to have that right next to the bookmark option. When I sort the icons it stays that way until I fully close out the app. When I restart the app the sorting is back to default. I know this isn't a severe issue at all (more of an inconvenience really). Anyone elsr seeing this?

I cannot replicate your problem on either an iPhone 5 or iPad 2 running iOS 8.0.2.
You can try resetting your iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears. Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • Does anyone know how to do a text search in the new Safari for iPad iOS 7?

    Does anyone know how to do a text search in the new Safari for iPad iOS 7?

    The feature has been removed to make safari even less useable. You need to download a third party browser like atomic web browser to get the functionality you want back.
    Like many new IOS 7 "features", safari on the ipad is a FAIL.
    At least you can now bury safari in a folder containing hundreds of icons that you can only view 9 at a time.

  • HT4972 what version of safari is on ios 5.1.1

    what version of safari is on ios 5.1.1

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    AFAIK, all that we know is that it is the version of mobile Safari that comes with iOS 5.1.1.

    You can do it. Open Pages and, in the window that allows you to open a document, scroll up and you will see a button to order your documents by name

  • HT1677 What is the default in terms of third party cookies on safari running on IOS? IS it 'from visited' ?

    What is the default in terms of third party cookies on safari running on IOS? IS it 'from visited' ?

    Thank you for your kind answer.
    Unfortunately, the core of the trouble comes from TextEdit as it takes an unusual End Of Line (end of paragraph) character.
    I took AppleScript as an example, but this makes trouble in all software that can deal with text (not word processors) and use the end of line character to read a line.
    I will go there in case I can find an answer.

  • Why won't Apple allow an app like Covenant Eyes to monitor internet activity on the Safari browser on iOS?

    Why won't Apple allow an app like Covenant Eyes to monitor internet activity on the Safari browser on iOS?

    Yes, that is the app.  It is used to monitor your internet activity, but because Apple won't allow an app like Covenant Eyes to monitor the Safari browser or any other browsers the Covenant Eyes app has to be its own browser which causes some issues.  You can't click on a link and have it open because the iOS tries to open Safari by default when you do that.
    I'm just wondering if there is anywhere on Apple's website that discusses this type of thing, why they don't allow an app like Covenant Eyes to monitor the Safari browser.  The Covenant Eyes program for Macs will monitor internet activity on the computer.

  • Youtube thumbnail in facebook is too large (safari ipad 2 ios 5.0.1)

    Youtube thumbnail in facebook is too large (safari ipad 2 ios 5.0.1)
    Please help

    About all that can be suggested is to use the feedback form and talk to Apple. They have communicated with some users, trying to get more info to find out just what the battery drain is so they can fix it. Unfortunately with the myriad of operating systems, apps and individual tweaks, there could be several combinations of settings that are draining the battery.
    My personal suspicion is that it has something to do with iCloud and the wifi syncing. (My ipad, before I changed the setting, was reaching out to find a sync on a regular basis. And it may still be doing so, however I set my iTunes to not automatically open to keep my device from trying to sync several times in an evening...not to mention the constant aggravation of iTunes opening regularly)
    That said, I could be wrong and it could be an app that users have in common, or several apps.

  • What version of Safari is in iOS 7.1.2

    I'm trying to communicate with a site that needs a compatible browser, and since there are many iterations of Safari, I need to know which version is on my iPad.  I can't find it going via " settings".

    Hi,
    7.1.2 was the version available before the iOS 8 update.
    Tap Settings > General > About then swipe down to Version.

  • Ipad mini retina display safari crashed with ios 8.0.2

    After updating my daughters iPad Mini retina display, safari crashes as soon as anything is entered in the search box. This started after IOS 8.0.2 update.
    I have rebooted and reset the iPad. I have cleared the history and website data, but nothing has helped.

    Try some basic troubleshooting:
    (A) Try reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    (B) Try reset all settings
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
    (C) Setup as new (data will be lost if you do not have backup)
    Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings

  • Problems with Safari after downloading iOS 7

    This is has been frustrating!  Ever since I downloaded iOS 7 on my ipad 2 I have not been able to use Safari. It opens for a millisecond and then closes.  Even when I go to settings and try to open the safari settings it closes immediately.  Any ideas?

    Check Settings>Messages>Send & Receive>Start New Conversations From to be sure your phone number is listed and selected.

  • IPad2 Safari crashed after iOS 5 update

    After upgrading my iPad 2 to iOS 5, my Safari crashed, at first it worked OK, but once I closed all existing tabs, it freezed, then crashed.
    I clear all the cache, closed the app, and reboot my iPad2 (power + home for 10 seconds), and re-open the Safari, still no luck!!
    It freezes as before, and no response even I try to touch any part of it. Try to launch it by opening a link from email, no luck! Blank screen, then crashed, back to home screen.
    Any suggestion and solution??
    Many many thanks!!!

    Did you try closing Safari before you reset the iPad? Close the app and then clear the cookies and cache again, restart the iPad and see if that helps.
    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 hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper 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.

  • Sort order changes from ios photos to iphoto

    My photos in an album in the the ios Photo app are in a particular order.  When accessed fro iPhoto, the order is completely different.  How can I mantain the original order?

    I also have have the same issue and have been on the phone with Apple Care....not much help I'm afraid although I do believe something is broken and requires a fix. Here is what I have found (all software up to date and latest OS BTW)....I have sorted all my pictures by Date, if I want to add a straggler I just alter the original date and all is well within the event.  I then "batch change" the event to the tile and event name. So the pictures in the event are named " Holiday 2012  1-xxx.  Again, all is well in iPhoto but when sent to an iPad or Apple TV the sort is as siwilson mentioned above.  I just discovered a temp work around for events with less than 1000 pictures, if I sort by Title I can get them to show correctly on the ATV and iPad. Now what was/is interesting is somethimes they would sort correct and sometimes not.  It turns out that if you sort the event by Title and quit iPhoto and reopen it....it has reverted back to sort by Date. It does that everytime. So what I do is turn home sharing off in iTunes (forces it to look at the photos again), open an iPhoto event and sort by Title.  Then I turn home sharing on in iTunes (leaving iPhoto open) and sync my iPad.  If I want ot stream photos to my ATV I must leave iPhoto open so the sort remains as I set it. If I want to retain the correct sort this is what I need to do each time. So this is a bandage for me until they fix things.  One final about pictures over 1000.....it sorts them as mentioned above with another twist, numbering goes 0001, 1000, 1001, 1002 etc.  @#$% why can't they just sort the way iPhoto presents them?

  • Safari issues in iOS 8.0

    In both iPhone and iPad, I am able to swipe back to previous web page, but I can no longer get the swipe forward to work.
    Selecting text in web pages has become extremely difficult. In fact sensitivity to touch in any web-based text box (this post, for instance) is much more buggy than in iOS 7. When selecting a word and trying to drag the handles to include other text, it jumps erratically beyond where I place my finger to drag. Trying to insert the cursor in text already typed is sometimes not responsive at all. (In this text box, I discovered clicking on the edge of the box activates the touch cursor ability. Just placing a finger in the text does nothing, otherwise).
    Auto-capitalization is inconsistent, or not as reliably responsive as before. It frequently capitalizes the first two letters of a sentence.
    It takes two or more clicks on a link before Safari takes you to the hyperlink.
    Zooming in on pictures often results in fragmented blocks of white, replacing parts of the image.

    Hi ..
    Try this on one device to test.
    Tap Settings > Safari then tap to clear History, Cookies, and Data.
    Then reset.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    No data is lost due to a reset.
