Bookmarks


.Mac's Bookmarks feature enables you to synchronize your Safari bookmarks between your computer and your .Mac account. Once the bookmarks are stored on .Mac, you can access them from any computer with an Internet connection, making it easy to surf your favorite Web sites, even when you're away from your computer.

To set up Bookmarks synchronization

1.

On the .Mac Home page (Figure 5), click the Bookmarks link.

2.

A Welcome screen appears (Figure 34). Click the Open Bookmarks button. A small, narrow Bookmarks window appears (Figure 35).
