Been a while since I changed my commonly used bookmarks bar. New
bookmarks are added to the beginning so it shift everything over by one.
That means your #1 slot becomes the most recently bookmarked item and
you'll find your old #1 is now in the #2 slot. Easiest way I've found to
rearrange is to open up the Show All Bookmarks with command-option-b,
navigate to the bookmarks bar and then to the table listing the items in
the bookmarks bar. From there you can highlight the bookmark you want to
move, cut it, move to where you want it to be and paste it.

Chris,
I've used this method and it is quite nice. I have a question. if I
add another web page to the bookmark bar, will it take the first
position and move the others down a number? If so, is there a way I
can reposition the bookmarks so the one I use the most keeps the short
cut command 1?
Thanks,
Linda

Another handy bit is that any bookmarks you store in the bookmarks bar
can be fired up just by hitting command-# where the number is the
order which the bookmark is in the bar list. So my most commonly used
sites are in the bookmark bar slots 1-5. To get to the first item at
any time in Safari I just hit command-1 and I'm there.

Amber,
First the Top sites is a fancy name for the most recently visited sites. The
more sites you visit, the more likely they will fall off the list. Second to
access a bookmark, I interact with the url in the table and use VO-shift-m to
bring up the contextual menu. THen you can select the action you wish. As far
as the menu bar, you could use a hot spot which is VO-shift-a number 1-9 and
you can remove this hot spot with the same steps and to go to that hot spot,
you simply press VO-number where number is 1-9.

Good morning listers,
As you can see from the subject line, I have several questions for all of you
today. I'll start with the questions about bookmarks and top sites. I have
been trying to figure out the difference and functions of both of these two
components of Safari for several months now, but I can't seem to make much
headway. Is top sites only meant to be a temporary list of the most recently
visited sites, or does it actually store bookmarks permanently? I was under
the impression that I could store my bookmarks there permanently, but often,
when I try to find a specific bookmark, it isn't in that list.
In regards to the actual bookmarks section of the browser, I have never been
successful opening the bookmarks that I have saved there. I have tried VO
space, clicking with VO Shift space and double clicking. I think I have even
searched in vain for a contextual menu. Therefore, I resorted to saving
everything in top sites, but now, even this doesn't seem to be working well.
Concerning the tool bars, if I know that there is a tool bark at the top of a web page or in
a particular program, is there a shortcut or VO command that will take me to
the tool bar from anywhere in the program or on the web page?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Peace,
Amber
