Safari Bookmarks Location

Bookmarks.plist is the file where safari bookmarks saved.You can also import bookmarks from Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, Mozilla, OmniWeb, Firefox, and Google Chrome. You can also import a Safari bookmarks.plist file if you’ve saved one from an older Mac computer.

The first time you open Safari, it automatically imports your bookmarks from Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, and Firefox.




Import bookmarks into Safari
Open Safari if it is not already open.
Choose File > Import Bookmarks.
Browse to find the file that contains the bookmarks you want to import, and then click Import (on Windows computers, click Open). Normally the file has “.html” or “.plist” at the end of its name.

If you don’t have a file to import, or can’t find the file, you may need to export the bookmarks from the other browser.

Export bookmarks from Safari
Open Safari if it is not already open.
Choose File > Export Bookmarks.
Specify a location for the exported file. The file’s name is “Safari bookmarks.html.” Most browsers are able to import this type of file.

Try emptying the cache more often.  From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Empty Cache or Command + Option + E on your keyboard. If that doesn't help, try resetting Safari. From the menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.                                  Back to the menu bar again, click Safari / Preferences then select the Extensions tab. If you have any Extensions installed, turn that off, try Safari

Manually Migrating Safari

Moving your Apple Mail to a new Mac, or to a new, clean install of the OS, may seem like a difficult task but it actually only requires saving three items and moving them to the new destination.There are a few ways to perform the move. By far the easiest and most often suggested method is to use Apple’s Migration Assistant. This method works well in most cases, but there’s one drawback to the Migration Assistant. Its approach is mostly all-or-nothing when it comes to moving data.

Safari Won't Open
There are a few possibilities. The most likely is that your Safari was moved or deleted. If it was moved, simply click on the spotlight in the top right and type in Safari. Select it under the applications sub menu. It should open as a different application then the question mark and simply drag the question mark off of the dock. After Safari has opened, right click on it and select keep in dock. If it was deleted you can download a new copy at this link: http://www.apple.com/safari/download/

Safari Continuously Closes Unexpectedly
 Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder Type this exactly as you see it here:~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db Click Go Move the Cache.db file to the Trash. Now Try Safari. 
Safari won't save bookmarks
 In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, enter the following in the text box that opens, and press return: ~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist Press the key combination shift-command-I to open the Info window. In the Sharing & Permissions section, you should have "read & write" access -- not "custom" access or anything else. Otherwise, click the lock icon and enter your login credentials, then fix the permissions. In the General section, is the box labeled Locked checked? If so, uncheck it. Close the window and try again.
