To stay up-to-date on the latest versions of Chromium for Mac, check out our updater tool. This is the same operating system on which BSD and Linux were built, and it’s earned its reputation for reliability and security thanks to a robust permissions system. The bedrock of macOS (formerly Mac OS X) is a rock-solid Unix foundation. When they come back, hopefully this syncing will work for Macs as well. Your Mac has many built-in security features to keep it safe. If not, you’ll probably want to wait for the feature to hit the regular release channel, something that will probably happen relatively soon.īookmark management appears to have been temporarily disabled on the latest versions of Chromium for Mac, after they were first turned on last week. If you understand what that means, you’re good to go. To get the feature working, you apparently have to launch the dev version of Chrome with the “–enable-sync command-line flag”. Select ViewBookmark Manager to display this window. Google notes that the bookmarks are stored on users’ Google account alongside Google Docs and sync via XMPP. Follow the steps below to create folders and organize bookmarks in Google Chrome on your PC or Mac. And Firefox users could download add-ons like Xmarks (previously called Foxmarks) to get the functionality, but with Chrome it will be built-in, and most importantly, unlike MobileMe, free.
Syncing has been a standard feature of Apple’s Safari browser for some months now, but you need to have MobileMe for it to work. This allows you to keep your browser bookmarks in sync no matter which of your computers you are using.
As promised, Google has just launched bookmark syncing for users on the dev channel of its Chrome web browser.
