Hi babischk,


Thanks for the additional information. If your bookmarks still aren't syncing between your Apple devices or when using Google Chrome after checking out the previous articles we provided, you'll want to contact Apple Support next. They'll be able to look into this matter further with you to see if they can find a resolution. You may reach them directly from Get Support.


Take care.

I am using Chrome as my PC browser and iCloud is set to transfer Chrome bookmarks. I have an iPhone xr and 3 different vintage iPads. One iPad, Air 3, was bought about the same time as the iPhone xr. Chrome bookmarks initially updated differently on each of my 4 devices and none have updated since their first import.


The 4 devices do not sync together. Even if they did then adding a bookmark to my Apple devices, I would need to also add the same bookmarks to my Chrome PC. So I would need to add the bookmarks at least twice if not more for each device.


iPad Air 3 has data which I take traveling. Thenither 2 iPads are much older, slower and don't update past ios 12.!One of the other iPads is data and wifi capable but doesn't have a data plan. The third iPad is only wifi capabE. I use the wifi only for reading books at home and the other for web and apps at home thru wifi.

Hi babischk,


We'd be glad to see if we can help out. We see that you're experiencing syncing issues with iCloud Bookmarks on your PC running on Windows 10. This would be expected behavior as iCloud Bookmarks isn't compatible with Windows 10.


According to If your iCloud or Safari bookmarks aren’t syncing, it states:


"Microsoft Edge browser in Windows 10 doesn’t support iCloud Bookmarks. If you want to use iCloud Bookmarks in Windows 10, use a supported browser, like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Internet Explorer. Learn more about the system requirements for iCloud."


Moving forward, we'd suggest adding your bookmarks manually to either your iPad or iPhone. Once added to one Apple device, it'll sync to the other through iCloud so you won't have to add them for a second time. To do this, check out these support articles below:

In addition, you may leave any feedback about this directly to Apple from Product Feedback.


All the best!
