You can pin until you’re blue in the face, or until the pin is blue or not blue, not clear to me which color means what but I’ve tried it many, many times assuming any possible way of pinning I can think of and seriously, it works about 80% of the time.
If you can’t recognize the problem, and therefore can’t help, I just want to give my thoughts to others with the same problem. If you get close to what you want, DON’T TOUCH IT. I had maybe 9 of 12 sites of where I wanted and was that way for quite a while, one day I knew what I wanted in the rest and wanted to complete the screen to look just like I wanted. Big Mistake. Can’t even get to stay back as good as I had before.
This wonderful feature has some serious bug. Period.

Not that I know of, I’m afraid.

I was wondering if there is a way to customise Top Sites to have more than 24 thumbnails in small view? It is a great way for me to see my clients sites at a glance and tell if there are any issues.

Thanks

I’m afraid I can’t help with Windows, but this Lifehacker article may help:

I have just downloaded Safari 5.1.5. I think it is the newest version. However, i can’t find ‘top sites” button. I have tried to find it in customize toolbar and preferences, too but i can’t see it. Could you tell me where i can find it? I am using Toshiba laptop. Thanks a lot.

Hi,
I’ve tried everything and it doesn’t work. Dropping and dragging doesn’t work, dragging the icon doesn’t work, is there somewhere to add to top sites manually? Thanks! Jen

I am having the same problem as above! The pictures for my top sites are no longer showing up – just a black screen. I can still access the website by clicking on them, but I do not have the visual of where I am going!

1. Why won’t gmail or yahoo mail drag to my top sites?

2. Some of the websites I drag will fall into my top sites but there’s no icon, is that normal?

Hi Rajon, sure.

Safari Preferences – General:
a] New windows open with: Homepage
b] Homepage: http://google.com

Let us know how that works out for you.

Thanks for reading.
