Safari bookmarks file is missing

OS: Yosemite 10.10.5

Safari V9.1.1

I had a folder in my popular called bookmarks. It was visible on the taskbar Favorites at the top of the window.

It contained all my favorites work.

I just noticed he disappeared and does not appear when I open "edit bookmarks".

Of course, I want to find him.

I read some old threads on bookmarks disappearing, but even if I can find the bookmarks.plist file it looks like my folder missing isn't there.

Any help to find out if it is still a popular place. I think not that I have a Time Machine backup, unless there is an auto backup?

Hello oldsailquik,

Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

I see your message that it turns out that a folder of bookmarks on your computer has been deleted by accident.  If you have no backup, then you can always try and retrieve bookmarks, as long as you use them with iCloud.

Restore your Safari bookmarks and reading list

  1. Go to settings on iCloud.com, then click on restore bookmarks (in the Advanced section).

    Versions are sorted by date and time that they have been archived.

  2. To the right of the version that you want to restore, click on restore.

    There may be several versions that can be shown at once. Scroll to see more.

    Note: Wait until iCloud finished restoring your bookmarks from Safari and playlist until you change them. While they are being restored, any changes are not saved.

Restored bookmarks and playlist will appear on all your devices set up for iCloud Safari.

iCloud: restore your contacts, calendars and reminders, or bookmarks

Have a good.

  • Lost folder Safari bookmarks

    Safari 9.1.1. : I was a change in editing very simple bookmark to bookmark files - by changing the order of the folders so a folder was closer to the top of the list because of its importance for me.   Received an error message that says could not do it because the favorites were the synchronization, please try again in a few minutes.  WAITED 5 minutes and moved the folder closer to the top of the list.  However, when I opened that folder of bookmarks, the bookmarks disappeared.  It happened after the synchronization message.  What is causing this glitch and do for restore missing bookmarks

    You can only restore the entire file of bookmarks to a previous state. It is not possible to restore the individual bookmarks.

    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

    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.

    Should open a folder window. Restore the file named "Bookmarks.plist" in this folder from a previous backup of the changes unwanted.

    If you don't have such a backup, but the Favorites are still present on an iOS (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) device that synchronizes with iCloud, then see below.

    Save your iOS devices. Turn off sync iCloud Safari on all devices except those. Quit Safari and delete the bookmarks on the Mac, and then enable synchronization Safari on it. Launch Safari. Bookmarks must synchronize icloud.

  • How can I synchronize Safari bookmarks to iCloud account different?

    We have two iPhones with accounts separate iCloud, as well as a few Macs.  Both Mac and iPhone share an iCloud account and have their Safari bookmarks synchronized via iCloud. But we would like another iPhone be synced to these favorites (probably not possible, I imagine), or at least to export bookmarks to another iPhone iCloud account, so they could be synchronized for the iPhone. I know how to export Safari bookmarks in Safari bookmarks html file, but how do to the account on another iPhone iCloud?  Would be sharing family take care of this?

    Why not to export the bookmarks in a folder on one of the workstations, then after logging in with the ID you want to sync, transfer it into the folder recorded in the ID?

  • Restore Safari bookmarks without time-Machine?

    Hello, all the

    Out of nowhere, one of my main folders Safari bookmarks disappeared. I'm a fairly knowledgeable Mac user and have no idea how they were deleted.

    I do usually external manual backups readers when I did some import an audio works and not very often otherwise (if I don't have a backup from a few months ago) but I added several important bookmarks since it went past 'poof '. It is also a way of saying that I have never set up Time Machine.

    So, how can I restore my bookmark.plist over current (tonight) without Time Machine. I know that Firefox - when I used to use it - kept many old .plists and you could scroll just to find later. It seems that Safari would keep much as well even without Time Machine configuration. At least I hope so.

    Thank you

  • Files and file of missing profiles

    Hi all

    I got the malware darn 'snap-do' on my Firefox, so I tried to uninstall completely the FF and then re - install to fix the problem... but just, which led to the issue of Firefox now not being able to find my old profile.

    I am receiving the error message;
    "Could not load your Firefox profile. It may be missing or inaccessible. »

    I know there are a lot of other discussions about this, but they all point toward the direction of creating a new profile using the following method: "launch the Run dialog box, type: firefox.exe - p...» ».
    When I try this if I get the same error as before.

    In short, I absolutely cannot find the file "profile.ini" and am assuming that there is more on my system.

    Can anyone help?

    Hello

    Reinstall of Firefox is not normally solve anything, as most of the problems are confined to the profile. You can use the reset Firefox feature instead, which retains essential data such as bookmarks and passwords.

    1. Press the ORB of Windows logo in the taskbar to bring up the Start Menu.
    2. In the search box, type the following command, and then press ENTER: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\
    3. In the window of Windows Explorer that opens, you should see the profiles.ini file.
    4. If the file is missing, you can create it manually in Notepad. Content should look like the following, the name of the folder example profile with the name of your actual profile folder.
    [General]
    StartWithLastProfile=1
    
    [Profile0]
    Name=default
    IsRelative=1

  • XPInstall. Enabled file is missing, where can I find?

    I have problems with the modules.
    Cannot install: error as follows:

    Now, I'm having problems with the removal of modules, click on remove and click Restart Firefox but the modules are not removed.

    Add-ons that I try to install are as follows:

    Auditor of Gmail, Gmail Manager Gmail S/MIME, open Gmail with button on toolbar, Better Gmail 2, Creatimail Email themes, shortcuts Google Preloader (for Firefox).

    I am trying to remove the Add-ons are:

    Also xpinstall.enabled file is missing.

    Quote: cannot install: error as follows: point could not be installed because Firefox could not modify the required.

    You get this error if an extensions must be unpacked in order to work properly.

    Normally, the extensions are installed with the renowned XPI files the GUID of the extension, but some extensions of torus also given in its file extension and these extensions only work when decompressed.

    The pref xpinstall.enabled is present on the topic: config page when you add yoursels.

    When absent then default to true.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

    Delete the files (extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini) extensions.* and compatibility.ini in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the extensions registry.

    New files will be created if necessary.

    See "extension corrupted files:

    If you see people with disabilities, is not compatible extensions in "tools > Modules > Extensions ' and then click the Tools button, on the side of the left end of the search bar ('Find updates' button in older versions of Firefox) to check if there is an update available compatibility.

    If this did not help, then also delete the addons.sqlite file.

  • These folders in safari bookmarks back after deletion

    I struggled to delete these 3 files in my favorites

    1 BookmarksBar

    2. the wish lists

    3 games

    I don't know where they have appeared. My Safari is enabled in the settings of iCloud, I delete them and they come back a few seconds. Even renamed puts back them to their original name. I do not think that default Safari bookmarks should contain these files especially the Games folder.

    I tried to disable Safari in iCloud and empty my favorites then, but once I turn on Safari in iCloud settings, these files continue to come back.

    Is there a way to delete these files? What is? Is there a way to reset the bookmarks in iCloud because I don't have a lot of bookmarks?

    Try going to your device settings/Safari and web compensation data.

  • My safari bookmarks get scrambled

    My Safari bookmarks got out of order.

    The tabs are okay, but within each tab, they are now out of use.

    If I try to rearrange manually, I get a message saying:

    "You cannot change bookmarks now.

    If I go to iCloud settings and uncheck bookmarks, when I check the box again, it says that if I want to merge with iCloud.

    I say Yes and I get my favorites return, but they are still more disordered.

    If I delete the library Bookmarks.plist file > folder Safari, I get my favorites right back, but after a few minutes, they become out of use again.

    What should I do to keep them in the order I want?

    PS: I think it started to happen a few days ago when I shut down my computer, and when I started my computer once again, a series of pop-up ads appeared asking me my iCloud password and other passwords. Which I entered correctly. I have a MacBook Pro with the Mavericks. And the latest version of Safari.

    Thank you.

  • Error message saying that some files are missing when loading Web site

    Recently, whenever I've updated my file of Muse and then exported and then downloaded via SFTP on my server, my pages Web load slowly and the browser opens with two error messages. A message says files are missing, and the second is a JavaScript error. When I FTP the files, I have all the FTP so I don't know why I keep seeing these two error messages. This happens on Chrome, FireFox, and Safari (haven't tested in IE).

    Thank you for helping me check on this issue. I spent the better part of two weeks racking my brains out on what was the cause of the error message. According to me, what it boiled down to a faulty firewall on the server of our hosting provider. He was blocking the movement of our own office, causing the site to not load completely. Since my webhost has adjusted the firewall settings and the site load very well now. It turns out that the problem began minutes after we downloaded news that we had designed in Muse. So, our first thought was that we had damaged our Muse file somehow. But thank God it was a firewall issue instead.

    You use Sync to synchronize bookmarks?

    If the extension of Maintenance of places cannot repair the database places.sqlite file remove all places.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder to rebuild the database places.sqlite latest JSON Firefox backup in the folder bookmarkbackups.

    The message means that you have two versions to Pages installed on your MacBook - the current v3.6 pages and previous Pages ' 09.

    Pages ' 09 files are 'packages' and include the file index.xml "missing."

    Pages v3 records in a different file format, one that does not use an index.xml file.

    Pages ' 09 tries to open that file, where the message.

    Exit Pages ' 09. Double-click the file, and it should open in v3 Pages.

    If you would prefer to continue to use the ' 09 Pages (many people, due to many features supported in the ' 09 Pages that are not is v3 Pages), then for this file and others that have been opened in page v3, you can open each in v3, and then export the file in the format of Pages ' 09.
