Safari: merge some windows into one separate window

I pulled seven tabs out of a window and want to merge those new windows into one.


I do not want to "Merge All Windows."


Does anyone know how to do this?


Thank you -

Hi Peter Terezakis!


It sounds like you want to merge separate tabs that you pulled out of a window into one window, and we’re happy to help. You can drag the tabs into another Safari window in the area where tabs are showing. If that's not what you're trying to do, please provide further details.

Hello Jeff,


Thank you for your reply.


So.. I have the seven tabs pulled out of the multi-tabbed parent window.


To be consistent with the language, each of the tabs pulled out of the main window has become a child window on its own.


I have tried combining two of these new windows and even returning one of the windows to the parent window without success.


Is there a keypress combination or special place to grab one window so that the other accepts the effort to merge windows?


Thank you,


Peter

Hello Jeff,


Again, thank you for your speedy reply.


The page that you sent me to contained instructions on how to:


  • Rearrange tabs: 
  • Scroll through tabs
  • How to select one of your first nine tabs
  • Show tab overview and
  • Convert all Safari windows to tabs in a single window


None of these options are what I am interested in at this time.



When you wrote, "the tab must be dragged into the tabs area,"

did you mean, "the tab must be dragged within the tabs area "?


Thank you,


Peter
