I run Safari 5.1 on Lion and all the favicon on my bookmarks and on the adress bar disappeared. Now i have only the blue globe. Does someone have any idea why and how to make them come again? I tried to empty the cache, remove the cookies... No change.
Safari-OTHER, Mac OS X (10.7)
Quit Safari.
Go to ~/Library/Safari.
Move the WebpageIcons.db file from the Safari folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari.
~ (Tilde) character represents the Home folder.
For LIon: To find the Home folder in OS X Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and choose Go > Library
I tried to erase the webpageicons.db in the safari folder but i couldn't find it nor in any subfolders, maybe that's why i don't get favicons anymore. Thanks for your help.
This worked for me. Thanks!
Finder -> Go (and press⌥ Option) -> Library -> Safari
I use Mavericks Mac OS X 10.9.2 and Safari 7.0.2 on my iMac for some days.
I had problems with bookmarks and favicons.
I delete yesterday my webpageicons.db.
(This was a suggestion in an other thread).
After that I open some webpages with bookmarks and the favicons are new stored.
I work a day with my iMac with some application and change to an other account and go back to my account.
Now all bookmarks are gone.
I don't know this is using of other account?
I use other account yesterday after deleting webpageicons.db and go back and favicons are present.
Very good programming from Apple ;-(
