I just upgraded from the standalone version of Hook v5 to the Setup version of Hookmark V6. I followed the upgrading instructions on the website. I have a couple of weird problems:
Using Hook I had 912 bookmarks but Hookmark tells me I only have 899 bookmarks. How do I figure out what is missing?
Hookmark doesn’t actually work. I can select an item and Hookmark knows I have selected it but copy link is always greyed out.
I use Hook constantly so this is a real workflow problem.
You can export bookmarks to a file via Hookmark preferences ->General ->Export… .
Then you can compare the two files in Terminal, using the following command:
diff, file1 file2
Repace “file1” and “file2” with the names of exported files.
Do you mean Hookmark Setapp does not work? Could you please send us the screen shots of Hookmark window with disabled copy link and Hookmark about window?
I am not sure this will work because they should be the same file. Following the conversation from the standalone Hook to the Setapp Hookmark version I just renamed the folder. I will try reinstalling Hook and exporting
Please see the attached screen shot. You will see that the key command is greyed out. However, selecting copy link with the mouse doesn’t do anything either.
Sorry, “Copy Link” menu item seems being enabled to me. Do you mean Hookmark does not copy the link to the clipboard when you select the menu item or using “command+c” ?
The clipboard reference was helpful because the link was in the clipboard.
In Hook v5 when I chose Command-C I would get a message that the link had been copied. That no longer shows up
In Hook v5 I linked an item to the next item with Command-L. It appears that now I have to choose Command-V.
I am still not certain where my missing 13 links went, and I would like some kind of visual indication that a link has been copied, but at least I can link items again.
Sorry, I wasn’t very clear. I don’t want the systems notification. I just want some kind of visual indication that something happened when I chose copy. In Hook the copied item would show up in the hook window.
I have sought peace in all, and found it nowhere but in a corner with a book
That is not really the issue. The issue is that there is no visual indication that an item has been copied. For example, here is the Hookmark window when first called up:
