How to delete bookmarks in safari Favorites?
For some reason, I can't delete or cut all the bookmarks that I placed in the folder Favorites of Safari. Some of them are old, but they keep reappearing after restart Safari. Looked everywhere in the Prefs. Nothing is obvious. It's so irritating.
Please, back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select, then copy it to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:
~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist
Quit Safari.
Select
Go ▹ go to folder
in the Finder menu bar. Paste it into the text box that opens by pressing Command + V, then press return.
A folder window should open with a file named "Bookmarks.plist" selected. Move the selected file to the desktop, leaving the file open.
Restart Safari. It will open with the default set of bookmarks. Remove them all. Select
Importing files ▹ ▹ bookmarks HTML file... (or import bookmarks...)
in the Safari menu bar. Import from the file of bookmarks that you moved to the desktop. Bookmarks will appear in a new folder with a name that starts with 'Imported' and ends with the date. Organize them as you wish.
If Safari is now running normally, you can remove the old bookmarks file. Otherwise, quit Safari again and replace the file that you moved, instead of the more recent of the same name. Close the Finder window and display your results.

How to delete bookmarks duplicate?
I have a lot of duplicate bookmarks in Firefox and the number continues to add on. There are few answers in this regard on the Support pages, but none of them work. Neither the Add - ons mentioned (sad that trivial things and basic need of Add-ons).
As there is no good way to sync Chrome and Firefox bookmarks, I often find myself manually import in a browser to another and after that I end up having tons of duplicates. I have this can handle in Chrome, but have not figured out how to do this in Firefox. I think Sync should handle this.
In any case, a quick solution in this regard? Preferably without an add-on (sigh! one more thing to slow down the browser).
