Renaming pinned bookmarks

Bug Reports

Thanks for letting us know about this issue, Steve. And sorry for the delay.

We’re investigating whether an issue was introduced in 2.1. Meanwhile, we would recommend the following export/import procedure to clear up any issues with the database
General Preferences Tab – Hook.

If your Macs are all Sync’d you can do the following on just one Mac, and use that Mac as the basis for syncing the others. If not all Macs have access to the same file systems, you’ll want to repeat on each Mac.

  • Step 0: Turn off Sync and Quit Hook.
  • Step 1: Make a backup copy of ~/Library/Application Support/com.cogsciapps.hook in case you make a mistake or system crashes during the process.
  • Step 2: Make sure all external mount points (disks, cloud shares, version control systems) are connected because bookmarks (and hence hooks) to unreachable hook://file// destinations will be removed)
  • Step 3: Relaunch Hook and go to Hook >Preferences (window) > General tab, click on the Export button and follow the instructions.
  • Step 4: once Export finishes, click on Import button.

Re-enable Sync once you’re done.
