I have quite a few tabs open in Safari. I'd like to save them in case I have to close Safari for whatever reason. Is there a way to save the tabs, so I can go to those sites after rebooting?

    The Sessions extension.



    Or "Reopen All Windows from Last Session" in History in the Menu Bar.

    Yesssss! That helps considerably.



    Now, is there any way to save them to a file, so I can use them at a later date? I would rather not have to use "Reopen ...."; I would prefer to keep Safari clean of tabs prior to an online session.



    i have tried to copy the tabs from the History menu. NO joy. Do you know of a way to do it or is that not possible?



    Edit: Forget my question. While I couldn't paste the sites into a new folder, I was able to paste them into TextEdit and was able to open them from there.



    Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

    You can always save the individual pages. The files will open in new tabs.

    That sound you hear is me slapping my forehead. I used to think these things out; now I just ask AI with bothering to think.



    I went to each tab, copied the URL into a new folder named 'Saved Safari Sites", and voila - I have everything I want. Much better than if I had saved ALL the tabs. I was trying to make things easy by saving all the times at once. NOOOO.



    {slapping forehead again}



    Thanks

    Now you can put that folder on your bookmark bar and select "Auto Click." Then when you click on the link all of the pages in the folder open in separate tabs.

    Thanks. What would I do without AI?

    Geez. So complicated for something Firefox does in one command. I really really really want to switch back to Safari, but it's things like this that keep me from doing it. Firefox is superior in this and many other ways I use on a daily basis. Like showing download status in the status bar, as another example.
