Hi richard, I knew I was forgetting something. In my original note, I erroneously said that I was able to add a bookmark from with in the bookmarks list. But of course, you're right, it's in shared. So once I open up the share and hit the bookmark choice, then I close out of Safari and come back in and open bookmarks, I still can't find the bookmark I supposedly added. And no, I wasn't talking about app folders, I was talking about folders that appear within the bookmarks list those folders appear because they exist on the Mac. But I still don't know what happened to the original bookmark that was saved in the share choice. I hope that makes more sense, and sorry for the original erroneous information. Mary
