Add websites to your Favorites in Safari on Mac
You can quickly see websites you access frequently by adding them to your Favorites, so you can get to them with just a click.
Add a website to your Favorites
In the Safari app
on your Mac, move the pointer over the Smart Search field.
Click and hold the One-Step Add button
that appears at the left end of the field, then choose Favorites.
You can also click in the Smart Search field, then drag the URL of the webpage you’re viewing to the Favorites bar near the top of the window, the Favorites folder in the sidebar, or the Favorites area in the start page.
Organize your Favorites
In the Safari app on your Mac, do any of the following:
Rearrange your Favorites: Drag them to different locations.
Edit the name of a favorite website or folder: Control-click the name you want to change in the Favorites page or Favorites bar, then choose Rename from the shortcut menu. You can also force click the name, or click and hold it until it’s highlighted, then enter a new one.
Remove a website from Favorites: Drag the website from the Favorites bar or from the Favorites area into the toolbar, then let it go when you see the Remove icon
. You can also Control-click the website, then choose Delete from the shortcut menu.
Show a different bookmarks folder in Favorites on the Start Page: Choose Safari > Preferences, click General, then use the “Start Page Favorites” pop-up menu.
View your Favorites
In the Safari app on your Mac, do any of the following:
View your Favorites from the Smart Search field: Click in the Smart Search field to see your Favorites in the start page view, then click the icon of the website you want to visit. The start page view goes away if you start typing, and it doesn’t appear if you click the field while you’re viewing the start page.
You can also see your favorite websites when you open new tabs. If you don’t see your Favorites in new tabs, change settings in Change General preferences in Safari.
Show the Favorites bar: Choose View > Show Favorites Bar. A bar with your favorite websites appears below the toolbar.
Open a Favorite website: Click in the Smart Search field, then click a website under Favorites, or click a website in the Favorites bar (or use the Touch Bar).
Note: Safari uses iCloud to keep your favorite websites the same on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac computers that have Safari turned on in iCloud preferences.
