Safari does not save edits to Favorites

I am using Safari 17.0 on a 24" iMac running Sonoma 14.0. I have no problem editing the Favorites bookmarks (adding and deleting them) and everything is fine until I quit Safari. When I launch Safari again, the Favorites have reverted back to the original default and the edits are not saved. Am I missing something simple or what?

Hey Wally23,


If you haven't already, try editing your bookmarks while your iMac is booted in Safe Mode: Use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support


This is a great way to test if certain behavior is caused by extensions or other software.


If the same issue occurs while in Safe Mode, we recommend reaching out to Apple Support for a closer look at this behavior: Get Support


Cheers!
