Sunk bookmarks?
My laptop crashed a few weeks - will not re-start. Had to reinstall/reload Vista and drivers and download all the software from scratch.
Stupidly? I did not know that with firefox you must manually export your bookmarks to save - in my docs or elsewhere. I thought they saved automatically in my folder of favorites like internet explorer. However, support Dell tell me that firefox does not and so now my favorites are lost for good/unrecoverable. (They pick up on my system once it was upward and re-run).
I just want to check that this is certainly the case. a value of 4 years of stuff in bookmarks, tags missing files? If Yes, then the lesson learned the hard... And I will now export/backup Favorites each week.
Thank you
Dell staff probably don't know where Firefox keeps its data.
Open the APPDATA folder, and then double-click the "Roaming". Then, "Mozilla" and "Firefox", "profiles". Here are inside your Firefox profiles. If you have only one, it's easy, copy this information to your new using the directions link above. If you have more than one, look at the dates to find the right one.

I can't go to my bookmarks after update for Sierra
I have a MacBook Pro. I just updated this week to Sierra with no problems, but now when I click on multiple points in the upper left corner to reveal my favorites and my playlist only, it displays the top sites page and does not open my favorites and reading list, as it used to.
Can someone tell me how to access my bookmarks and playlist in the Sierra? I'm sure it's something in the settings or something escapes me. My Bookmark Bar is the top of the page, yet. I can't find my bookmarks and reading list.
Thank you
I thought about it, I had to go to Favorites on top and tell Safari to display in the Sidebar again.

Disable the bookmarks/SharedLinks/ReadingList sliding?
Whenever the mouse is close to the border of the left hand, bookmarks / shared links/reading sliding list opens. I never use it. Is it possible to disable this behavior?
CMD + SHIFT + L brings up all the time, but I want to hide this pane and it did not come out at all. Default behavior is to automatically hide.
Unfortunately, no.
This is the default behavior of the sidebar when the window is in full screen mode.

Hello. My Safari bookmarks change from dark to light and light to the darkness when I hover over them. Is there a way to disable this? I can see where this might be a useful feature, but it's that I'm not interested. Thank you.
There are several places where the bookmarks are accessible. Where are you looking at bookmarks when this behavior occurs? You have installed Safari extensions that could be the cause?

Where is the Menu bookmarks?
In Safari 10 I can only add bookmarks to the 'Favourites' section or to bookmark files, I created myself. I can't add to the bookmarks Menu more because apparently disappeared? Is this a bug? Now I can not add my favorites for the 'root' of the bookmark list more. My bookmarks section contains a list of folders of bookmarks and a few bookmarks in the upper slot that I did not put in such a folder. I used to select the Menu bookmark to add those and decided later if I want to move to a folder of bookmarks. But this Menu bookmarks option has now disappeared. It is not anywhere between my either custom files. So where is he past?
Open the Bookmarks Sidebar, then click on the URL, and then drag it to the bookmarks.

lack of "Add to bookmarks" in Safari 10/macOS Sierra
After a clean install macOS Sierra, I could not find "Add to bookmarks" in Safari 10.0 (12602.1.50.0.10). It only shows 'Favorites' as shown in the following image.
Yes it's true. Favorites is / are favorites.
In the Safari menu bar, click bookmarks > add bookmark and you get the dialogue you have shown from Favorites and then all subfolders, you can have, if you click on the double arrow to the right.

Since the installation of Mac Os Sierra I'm suddenly affected by a very slow opening and closing bookmark next to Safari bar files when I click on them. Regularly, it takes 3 seconds for a file to open or close to display the list of bookmarks in a file. Does anyone else know this? Trying to solve the problem, I have repaired the Mac HD, emptied all my caches in the library in the Finder, reset the PRAM and am now ideas.
Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in the Preferenes system, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolate a problem by using a different user account
If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account. Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

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?

Could not import Firefox bookmarks
Using the last El Capitan (10.11.6) and Firefox 48.0.1.
I have my favorites in Firefox and want to import them into Safari.
I'm going on Safari, file / import of... / Firefox
Select bookmarks, and then click OK
It hangs for a while, and the CPU usage is 0%
However, no imported Favorites appear in Safari.
If I, instead, export as HTML in Firefox, I can import that uses the file / import of... / bookmarks HTML file.
What I don't want is the 2nd option, because she simply creates a folder of bookmarks in Safari instead of map to good equivalents of Safari (toolbar, etc.)
How can I go on Safari to recognize Firefox bookmarks in native mode?

Hello. I have synced my phone with iTunes and after that my favorite Safari favorites are gonzo. Someone has an idea? Thank you!
Selly greetings,
Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.
I see that you have synced your iPhone with iTunes, and then after that your Safari bookmarks are missing. I guess it is on do not have all your Favorites after a sync. Let's get this sorted out.
Sync your iPhone with iTunes should not have an effect on your bookmarks. iTunes cannot sync some content, including bookmarks, notes or e-mail accounts. I recommend to close the Safari app and then reopen to see if bookmarks reappear. And also to give the iPhone a fresh reboot. These articles will help:
Force a nearby application on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
Restart your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
If you use iCloud bookmarks, use get help using bookmarks iCloud and playlist, more specifically, this section:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
After each step, check to see if the problem persists.

- Tap Settings > iCloud on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch and make sure that Safari is enabled.
- Install the latest version of iOS , which is supported by your device.
Check your Internet connection
- Open Safari and go to www.apple.com. If you are unable to connect to the Internet, your iCloud does not refresh playlist and Favorites in the app Safari help with your Internet connection.
- Open a secure Web site to your iOS device to see if you can access the ports 80 and 443. Safari requires access to port 443 to push updates between iCloud and your devices.
Check your account details
Tap Settings > iCloud and make sure that you are logged in with the same ID Apple you use on your other supported devices.
Restart Safari
Close and restart the Safari app on your iOS device.
In iOS 7 or later:
- Double-click the Home button to see your open applications.
