Take notes about a web page in Safari on Mac
When you’re reading a web page in Safari, you can jot down ideas about the web page, copy text from the web page and paste the web page address in a Quick Note, without ever leaving Safari.
Jot down ideas about a web page in a note
Go to the Safari app on your Mac.
Go to a web page.
Press the Fn and Q keys.
Enter text in the Quick Note that appears.
Copy text from a web page to a note
Go to the Safari app on your Mac.
Go to a web page.
Select text.
Control-click the text, then choose Add to Quick Note.
A link to the web page appears in the Quick Note and the text in Safari is highlighted. When you revisit the website, your highlight is still there and a thumbnail of the Quick Note appears in the lower-right corner of the screen.
Paste a web page address in a note
Go to the Safari app on your Mac.
Go to a web page.
Click , then choose Add to Quick Note.
You can edit Quick Notes just like other notes. To reopen a Quick Note, move the pointer to the hot corner for Quick Note (by default, the lower-right corner of the screen), then click the note that appears. See Use hot corners.
If you want to always start a new Quick Note (instead of adding to the previous one), open the Notes app on your Mac, choose Notes > Settings, then unselect “Always resume to last Quick Note”.
You can find your Quick Notes in the Quick Notes folder in the Notes app.
