I accidentally deleted more than 5 years worth of bookmarks in Chrome and I'm desperately trying to restore them.
Browse to the Application Support / Google / Chrome etc...and then within it will be bookmarks or bookmarks.bak but I do not have this same folder structure as described (see my structure in the screenshot below) - and I did a search for bookmarks and bookmarks.bak but nothing came up.
I'm using OSX 10.8.5.
I want to "reformat" my 2010 Macbook, so I guess I want to restore it to factory settings and then restore from my Time Capsule backup. I don't know how to do this. I also don't know how to make sure I don't lose all my Google Chrome bookmarks when I restore it.
Info:
MacBook (13-inch Mid 2010), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been googling answered to solve this problem for hours, even called Microsoft & Apple for help but nothing. I just restarted my computer. Everything was normal. All bookmarks are there, I actually just added another bookmark. So then when the computer comes back on, I open safari & the bookmarks look empty. The only bookmarks are the ones that come with safari (Apple, Yahoo!, Google Maps, YouTube, Wikipedia, News, & Popular). All history is there from this whole week but NO Bookmarks! So I googled how to restore safari bookmarks. they tell me to look for the 'bookmarks.plist' file in safari folder.
I followed plenty of instructions like "File"> "Import Bookmarks" & tried to search for the file in (Users/yourUserName/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist) in safari but I cannot find that safari library folder folder. I tried (CUsersyournameAppDataRoamingApple Computer Safari) but I cant even find the "appdata" folder. So then apple tells me that you can only search for the bookmarks.plist folder on a mac computer. So that means I wasted the whole evening looking for those folders. Now since apple & microsoft basically tell me im on my own. I am becoming really desperate. I have hundreds of very important bookmarks saved that have a bunch of job listings & apartments that I really really need.
I have had a lot of problems using Google Chrome browser with unwanted pop-up ads coming up all the time. It is a real pain to deal with this and it happens all the time. It all started a few days back when I clicked on updating a Java script for a program to run.

After using Firefox and many others on the Mac, it's now my default browser. It's the only browser that's in the dock, actually. But I have a complaint about it.On a MacBook, the screen isn't wide enough for all of my bookmarks to show up in the bookmarks bar. The "bookmarks" menu in the bookmarks bar is hiding the last bookmark I have. How do I get rid of that? The top menu already has a bookmarks pull down menu.

View 3 Replies View RelatedMy (relatively) new Macbook Pro has developed some sort of bug, and I'll do my best to explain. The cursor acts as if the left-click button is being held down, i.e. it highlights or drags a selected object. The only way to stop highlighting is to click another part of the desktop, but then it starts highlighting from that point. The only way to get out of this mode is to restart the computer (I've had to do that 3 times today). I've been assuming that it was a bug in Google Chrome since it was always open when the bug started, but this last time Chrome wasn't open.

I recently bought a 13" MacBook Pro and I've been using Safari as my default browser. Before I got my Macbook and used a Windows 7 laptop, Google Chrome was my default browser. I still wanna use it as my default browser but not sure if it's as good for the Macbook as it is for Windows. I know both are fast browsers but which is the best one for the Macbook? Should I stick with Safari or should I switch to Google Chrome?

A couple of weeks ago, I suddenly started seeing pop ups in both my Chrome and Safari browsers. I have pop up ads turned off in both, went so far as to uninstall Chrome and the .dmg for it several times, cleared all histories, cookies, extensions, etc, etc. What's even more maddening is that it happens while just using plain old Google to do a search. I have cleaned out all old pics and documents via Finder that I no longer needed. I have nothing new that has caused this change. So what the heck is happening here??? I have been trying to track this isue down and can't find a solution. Firefox seems to be the only thing unaffected at this point, but I migrated away from Mozilla a long time ago. I've tried searching Google's forums, but the fact it's happening in Safari suggests it's something within my Mac. I've run a virus scan (semi-redundant, I'm aware, but I'm grasping) and all is clear. Do I try a malware search now?
