MacBook Pro :: Safari Reading List Won't Save A Webpage?
Feb 7, 2012
I had saved a webpage on the Safari Reading List. I pulled it up, read a little, and saw it disappeared from the Reading List. I had ot finished reading it, so I decided to re-save it to the list, but the Add Page button on the Reading List window was greyed out. Nothing I did would change the greyed out button to make it functional.Â
Info:
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7), Just upgraded to Lion
I have iCloud enabled on my Mac (10.7.3) and iPad (5.1). Both have Bookmark syncing enabled, but my Mac Safari Reading List is not syncing with my iPad. I disabled/renabled, logged-out and logged-in on both devices, but still no syncing. All my other items, Contacts, Calendar etc. are syncing correctly. Just not the reading list.
What is the easiest way to backup all sites that I put in reading list (about 50 of them)? I plan to install Mountain Lion but I want to backup reading list first.

I opened safari and all of my tabs/reading list were thrown way outta wack.The reading list is "empty" but has hundreds of greyed out stuff behing the glasses and explanation. Everytime i add something to the list it adds the item multiple times, 1 at first then 2 for the next item ad infinitum.My once polished tabs bar has been riddled with old stuff that I never put there.

As of today, Safari only opens links by bouncing them to the reading list. I have to go find them in there and click on them again to view the link. Why are the links not opening directly in the browser window, the way you'd expect? I haven't changed any prefs or anything like that. I'm on Lion.
I have been using the 'Reading List' as a default Bookmark list as I find it more accessible than the old Bookmark system in Safari. After recently updating Safari my reading list has developed a bug. Firstly my entire list had disappeared (most annoying and inconvenient as I began rely on the list for my continuing study of important references in relation to my business) but I strangely I do get a multiple entry of my last used item. In fact the last time I opened up the list I had about ten duplications of the same bookmark. A recent example is below. My other references (which incidentally, courtesy of iCloud appear on my iPhone bookmarks) have disappeared.
When I opened my reading list this morning and added an entry I got a very weird list - multiple redundant entires that seem to replace the other entries I had. Checked on my reading list on my iPhone - just like it should be.
I recently decided to sync my Safari reading list between devices, using iCloud. Â
When I altered the iCloud settings on my Macbook so that Safari was synced, what happened was not synchronization. Â
What happened was, my up-to-date Macbook Safari reading list (Date X) was replaced with my dated iCloud Safari reading list (Date X minus say 100 days), and the intervening items apparently lost.Â
I need to retrieve the items lost in this synchronization failure.

I am trying to save a homepage. I go into peferences and click on the button. But everytime I go back into safari it comes up with the last tab (or tabs) that were viewed. I am stuck with how to sort this out.Â
P.S When I am shutting down my macbook, everytime the box is checked for reopen windows when logging back in. How can I un check this and save it so I dont have to keep doing it.
This may sound like a newbie question but I've searched all over and couldn't find a thing. I'm starting to think it isn't possible to do so? Maybe someone here will come along and prove me wrong.
While surfing the web and trying to save on my reading list. I accidentally deleted the information on my reading list. So all the saved websites are gone.
I don't have time machine set up or an external hard drive to be able to get it back.Â
Is there any alternative way to recover or undelete this?Â
Ever since the last security update, I have been having trouble with the text in part of a web page becoming garbled. It happens when I am scrolling through a page. I can fix it by highlighting the text and it will go away. It remains legible after I take the highlighting away. It does not happen every time I scroll, but it does happen randomly throughout the day. I have owned my Macbook for almost a year and this problem has only come up since the last security update.
how do I have the calculator on my Macbook Pro in the same window as a Safari webpage? I'm trying to do some calculations from a webpage and currently need to keep going back and forth to the dashboard.
I was browsing a webpage with Safari when suddenly this really loud screeching sound came from my Macbook Air. I am not talking about the small clicks the HD seems to be doing once in a while. This was a very loud screeching sound, like someone cutting glass with a diamond. I didn't have any other programs on and my speakers were off. The sound lasted for about 2 seconds and got me very scared. I immediately checked the temperatures and fanspeeds but they were all normal (CPU around 45 celcius and fan about 2500 rpm). Now I'm afraid that it was my HD and it will fail on me sooner or later. Everything seems to be work normally now but I already sent all my important documents to another computer.
When I play an embedded video in a web page in Safari, it invariably halts and starts repeatedly (not the audio.. it goes on smoothly while the video pauses then resumes in a few seconds in sync with the audio, then this repeats in a few seconds). This doesn't happen with youtube videos in Youtube, but embedded in blogs or Jon Stewart e.g.
I'm having issues when trying to click on a link on a webpage or pop up. Firefox and Safari are not registering when I click on a link or button. I've only been using a Mac for only about 5 days now so I don't know all the settings and what they do.
Also this was working two days ago. If there something I disabled or enabled, how can I fix it or re-trace my steps. I need this to download PSD's for my artwork.
I have a playlist in iTunes and I wanna export the list so I can show people what my play list is, if I export it as plain text or xml it just shows code, is their anyway to save the playlist in a readable format?
