Uh,oo. It wasn't when I last checked it about 2 days ago. I'll look in to it and see or you can look in iTunes for the gwenna cast. or here's the podcast url for direct subscription from iTunes. I don't know how many she leaves up on the feed itself but here you go. The safari one should be up there as it was done sometime this year. http://gwenna.podbean.com/feed Take out the feed part and access the archives from the main site if you can't find it. hope this helps someone.

Hi Sarah, Debbie, and Phil, The link worked for me when I tried it from Phil's message. I found the entry for Creating Bookmark Folders, February 14, 2012, and started it playing (on my iPad). It's about 10 headings down that page. HTH. Cheers, Esther On Sep 21, 2012, at 6:39 AM, Sarah Alawami marri...@gmail.com wrote: Uh,oo. It wasn't when I last checked it about 2 days ago.

RE: Tips on navigating the Safari bookmarks menu on a Mac
It depends how complicated you want your bookmarks. Command D will enable you to add a bookmark to the bookmarks menu easy enough. Then vo M or if Using Numpad commander press 8 to bring up the menu bar . Press B for Bookmarks and then you can navigate the bookmarks menu. Letter navigation helps you get quickly to where you want to be . If you want quick access to up to 10 websites then here the Bookmarks Bar as opposed to the bookmarks menu is your friend. Adding bookmarks here will mean that they will simply open with command 1 command 2 command 3 and so on. You do have to remember what site is attached to each hotkey. On the other hand If you want to organise your book marks into several folders in Safari, this can be done but personally I found it a complicated, nightmare process and very difficult with multiple interactions and uninteractions necessary. Looking at postings from others on this topic from other lists I am not the only one. I think this is a complex process for us as the main method Apple recommends is dragging with the mouse. in the end it was so tortuously complicated slow and cumbersome in Safari I found it easier to do this in Windows and simply copied a folder of Favourites organised into folders and stuck it on my IMac. I then put it on my Dock for quick access. This work well. I just open the Dock, press return on my links folder and then navigate with first letter to the folder and url I want and then it opens in Safari. Remember that to make a folder properly accessible on the Doc, you have to first change its view properties to list by bringing up the context menu with shift vo m or the plus key on numpad commander. It is the enigma of the Mac, some things are ridiculously easy, some are a challenge. I think you can also get good browsing results by using the reading list capacity as an alternative to bookmarks. I have not fully explored this yet.
