• Missing Favorites/Top sites button

  There used to be a button on the Top sites page to change to Favorites (and vice versa). This button is gone. In preferences/general, I must choose between the best sites and the favourites for the TWO new tabs and new windows, I see one or the other. What happened to the ability to switch between these two views, I use both. I have also no bookmarks pane in the preferences. [OS X 10.11.6;] Safari 10.0]

  Send feedback to Apple. They will not respond, but at least know that there is a problem or a suggestion for change. If enough people send feedback, it can get change / suggested the problem solved as soon as possible.

• New Top Sites tab screen is blurry, all out.

  When I open a new tab and expect to see the tile from Top Sites, or at least the name of tile/site under each icon, all I get is a blur on the version. I know why the tiles are empty (Firefox is set to clear history when closing), but the descriptions were still visible. This problem began after the v42.0 update.

  What gives?

  Here is a screenshot to show the problem better.

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox, Tools/menu key > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

  • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox, Tools/menu key > Modules > appearance
  • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

  I need to remove a site listed on top sites

  A long time on it and remove it.

• How to make the top sites page appears when I open a new tab? Why have I not of "buttons" to pin a top site of the page tab?

  When I open a new tab, NO best sites don't show up... shows just a search engine box. I have Firefox 33.0. Why is there no 'pin' button when I opened a new page? How to make the top sites page appears when I open a new tab?

  Here is some additional information on the configuration of the new tab page:

  (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

  (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered

  (3) double-click the preference browser.newtab.url and enter your favorite page:

  • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
  • Blank tab = > subject: empty
  • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
  • Any other page = > full URL of the page

  Press Ctrl + t to open a new tab and check that it worked. Fixed?

  Some traps:

  If Firefox will not let you change this setting: you can have what is called SearchProtect on your system.

  Firefox if allows you to save your changes, but he doesn't know: one of your extensions may be the substitution of her. You can consult, disable and/or remove extensions on the addons page:

  "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons > in the left column click on Extensions

  If the modification works during your session, but during the next startup is leads to: you could have a user.js file in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). This article describes how to track down and delete the file: How to fix preferences that will not save.

  A little luck?

• Why can't save Gmail as a top Site?

  On MacBook Pro with the retina (version 10.10.5).

  I would like to record the sites that I use frequently on Top Sites and I saved as one and Google Maps as another Google. I tried several times to save Gmail and it records for a brief moment, and then deletes the best Sites and puts a site already visited in his place. Why he keep doing this? Even if I click the thumbtack icon to save her, he keeps removing itself.

  Configure Gmail as a bookmark instead.

• Top sites and the browser history

  Hi, I'm on a Macbook Pro 2011 running OS X Yosemite 10.10.5, with several people using my login information. My question is - I have a site on my Top Sites, but when I look in the browser history I don't see. This means that the browser history was deleted? And if it appears in the Top Sites does this mean it has been visited frequently or not necessarily? Thanks v. much.

  Not necessarily. It is possible to add a site to the Top Sites with the add a bookmark function (inadvertently).

  The preferences of TopSites is maybe damaged.

  Quit Safari.

  Open the Finder.

  In the Finder menu bar, click go > go to folder

  Now, copy and paste the following text:

  ~/Library/Safari/TopSites.plist

  Then click OK, and then place the TopSites.plist file in the trash.

• How can I show only URLs typed in the form of Top Sites?

  It is really unpleasant to see hundreds of ephemeral URL you visit never again on the screen in Top Sites. Is there a way to make this friendly so I don't see the URL I typed. I am happy to put something to the: config.

  Use about: config.

  Set the following parameters:

  Browser.urlbar.default.Behavior

  32. it uses a bitmask. So use can add different values for most any desired behavior.

  See the following page:

   http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.urlbar.default.behavior
  

  for a further description of this parameter.

  Only, it seems to work on the desktop version. Android screen terrible (Awesome) ignores this value.

• How to disable or remove "Top Sites"

  The 'top sites' feature is a good idea, but most of the time I do not use it.

  So I was wondering if it is possible to turn it off or remove it.

  If this isn't the case, could be created an extension to disable or delete?

  Currently, it is not customizable. This may be possible in future versions.
