What happened to my Safari Bookmarks on my iPad?

Just went to Bookmarks in Safari on my iPad, and discovered there were only a few basic bookmarks left, like Apple, etc. all of my custom bookmarks are gone. I have done nothing new to my iPad since I last referenced a bookmark. I see no settings which would affect this. So what's going on here?
My iPhone still retains all of my custom bookmarks as does my Mac. Everything is synced with iCloud, and all of the bookmarks are there too.
So why did my iPad suddenly delete them?

See if this brings them back.
Quit Safari completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent 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 of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Do you know what happened to the Notes i made on ipad 'Notes'? They seem to have been deleted. How do I get them back??

    Do you know what happened to some Notes i made on ipad 'Notes'? I turned on the ipad and they have been deleted. I am not connected to the cloud? How do I get them back??

    What exactly did your friend do ? Did you or he take a backup of your iTunes library before updating your computer ? Have you checked to see if your music is still on your computer ? By default your iTunes library is stored under :
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\
    Windows Vista: \Users\username\Music\iTunes
    Windows 7 and Windows 8: \Users\username\My Music\iTunes
    If it's there then you can add it to your iTunes library via File > Add To Library.
    If not then do you have a copy of your library on a backup ? If you do then use File > Add To Library to add it back.
    If you haven't got a backup then you might, depending upon what country that you are in and if the music is still in your country's store, be able to redownload your iTunes purchases via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.

  • I am trying to import my safari bookmarks into my ipad.

    Hi,
    I am trying to import my safari bookmarks into my ipad. I am running snow leopard on my mac so I can't run iClound. I was able to import my address book, calenders, and music by syncing with iTunes but no luck with my bookmarks. Dose anyboday have a work around for this.
    Thanks
    Larry

    Try de-selecting Sync Bookmarks under the Info tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes, select Apply followed by a sync.
    Follow this by re-selecting Sync Bookmarks and another sync.

  • HT5833 What happens if you remove a profile from ipad? Can you get it back?

    What happens if you remove a profile from iPad? Can you get it back?

    Hi Gumby694,
    You can only get the profile back if you plug into a computer that has the configuration profile in Apple Configurator or get the profile wirelessly from an MDM.
    Hope this answers your question.

  • What happened to the show bookmarks button firefox 3.6.x

    In Firefox 3.6 and all previous versions I have used, there was a button on the bookmarks toolbar near the New-Tab/New-Window buttons.
    The button was purplish with a white "star" in the center. Clicking the button would open the sidebar and display the bookmarks in the sidebar.
    Starting with Firefox 3.6.3 (I never tried 3.6.2), this "Show-Bookmarks-in-Sidebar" button has disappeared.
    Now, in order to show the bookmarks ion the sidebar, you have to click:
    [View]=>[Sidebar]=>[Bookmarks]
    What happened to this button ?
    Can I customize FF to bring this button back ?
    (If I rt-click=>customize, I see all kinds of buttons I can add to the toolbar, but the bookmarks button is not there).
    Thanks
    Kevin

    That button is in the Customize Palette. <br />

  • What happened to my safari/internet?

    What happened to safari/internet? I don't really know whether the problem is with my safari OR internet, but this thing suddenly just popped out of nowhere, at first it didn't really bother me.. But this thing has been annoying now, it will popped out around once every few minutes and it won't stop.. Can somebody help me?
    Thank you in advance

    I don't actually understand much about these kinds of things, so I don't really know.. But now my first problem had turn into something, well how to put it.. it's not something worse but more annoying than before..
    The problem is that, every time I open a new page or websites, it will always stop midway.. some are not even midway through which means the page is not "fully loaded". it will stop there, for "minutes or maybe even forever", and I realise that in order to fully open the page, I need to refresh the pages a couple of  times until it is "fully loaded".
    At first, I thought maybe it's the internet, but then I learned that when I open videos for example "Youtube", the buffer is very smooth, as fast as always. But to open the "Youtube", I need to refresh my page a couple of times. So, the conclusion that I have is, the problem only affects me when I first open a new page, but when the page is already "fully loaded", it's just as smooth as ever...
    Is this normal? I mean, is this only a temporary internet problem? OR is there something wrong with my computer/safari?

  • Safari bookmarks different on iPad and iMac

    I've synced my iPad and iMac numerous times but the bookmarks on my iPad are the original ones and haven't updated to those on the iMac. Any suggestions?

    The exact same thing happened on my iPad over the last day or two … all of my old bookmarks disappeared and were replaced with just the set of default items (Google, Bing, iPad manual, and a couple of others). I couldn't add any new ones at that point, either. Eventually I tried killing off the Safari task in the bottom bar of background apps, and when I restarted Safari thereafter my old bookmarks were back. Definitely seems like a bug, but at least there was a workaround that helped in my case.

  • How can I import safari bookmarks from my iPad or iPhone?

    I recently opened a MobileMe account and set my account to sync with my Safari on my iMac. While I was in Safari, MobileMe synced, I mistakenly allowed it to sync from MobileMe to Safari, not the other way around. So I have lost all my bookmarks. They still exist in my iPhone and iPad, but I want them to go back into my computer. I have tried syncing the devices to my iMac, but to no avail. Anyone have any suggestions? Have I missed something?

    HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
    Open System Preferences/MobileMe: Select the Sync tab. Then click the Advanced tab. Select your Mac and click: *Reset Sync Data*
    If that doesn't sync your Safari bookmarks back to your iPhone or iPad, try MobileMe: Troubleshooting iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch sync issues first.
    You can also post in the iPhone Forum to get help there.
    Do you by chance use Firefox? You could export your Bookmarks there to Safari and it would be a much simpler process ??

  • What happened to the Safari status bar?

    Before Lion Safari used to have a nice little piece of functionality in the Status Bar. Before I ask, let me explain what *didn't* change. Still functioning in the status bar is notification that the link you're hovering over wil open up in a new tab (or window based on your settings). See the image here
    http://d.pr/oPty to see what I am talking about.
    What *is not* happening anymore is this notification when you would like to open a link in a new tab (that otherwise would not) by holding down the command key. For example, you are on yahoo.com hovering over a link to an article. If you leave your mouse pointer over that link and then hold the command key down, the "in a new tab" note at the end of the URL in the status bar doesn't show up. This also worked for holding down the option key (download) and holding shift+command (in a new tab behind the current one).
    I hope I am explaining this correctly, let me know if not.

  • What happened to the Add Bookmark icon

    In Safari 6 under ML, the Add Bookmark Icon, is missing. I know I can use Command D, but sometimes using the + was quicker. Is there someone to turn that feature back on?
