Moving tabs between windows

I have couple of Safari windows in fullscreen. I would like to take a tab from one window and dock it into the other window. I don't really want to merge all. I can tear apart the tab I want to move, but I can't see a way to dock it into the other window.


Any suggestions would be much appreciated.


Thanks.

Hi Tom Wolsky,

Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Community. I understand that you want to move some of your tabs in Safari from one window to another Safari window. I can understand wanting to make sure your tabs are organized, I'm happy to help.

You should be able to drag and drop a tab from one Safari window to the other. Click and hold on the tab that you wish to move, then drag it out of the Safari window. It should look like a small transparent box. Then, drag it over to the window you wish to place it in. The transparent box should disappear and move in to the space with the other tabs in that Safari window. Keep in mind that this may not work while in full screen mode. You may need to minimize the Safari window to move the tab first, unless you are using multiple displays.

Take care.
