Apple, in their infinite wisdom set it up so if you want to bookmark a page in Safari, you open the share tab at the bottom of the screen, not the bookmarks tab. Then you can add it to various lists, or your home screen, then move that icon into a folder, if you are talking about app folders. I guess Apple takes the approach that if you want to bookmark a page, you are sharing it with yourself. Anyway, once you add it to your bookmarks, favorites, etc: then you open the bookmarks tab to find it again. Unless of course you saved it to your home screen. HTH, Richard
