How do I delete something from the drop-down menu of the URL bar. I went there accidentally and don't want it in the list.

I directly typed what I thought was the correct URL into the URL box. It took me to a site different from where I was wanting to go. Now that site's URL is in the list of URL's in the drop-down box. Is there some way of deleting this from the drop-down list? It seems to me that there used to be a way to do this--a small x on the right side of each site's URL in the list. After one of the updates this was no longer there.

touch it with mouse, don't click, and press DELETE.
tell us if this work for you, thank you

  • "Choose what folder to store your bookmark in by picking one from the drop-down menu. Or "choose"". Neither works, it only and ever shows 5 of 20 folders I have....help

    I want to bookmark a page I click star or right click. I pick bookmark menu as it has all my folders, however, my only "folder" options are the same five, even if I pick "choose" it doesn't give me ALL my folders to "choose" from, I've mess with this for a year now, the only way to get my page into a "folder" that I want but wasn't given the option in the "bookmark this page box" is to bookmark it (not in a folder-because I don't want the choices given to me) then go to "organize bookmarks", find page and drag it into the "folder" I wanted it to go in in the first place......I'm sooo frustrated, why can't ALL the folders you have show up and then pick one? WHY ONLY a few show up as choices...sigh

  • How do I double space a document using Pages There is NO Line Spacing control in the drop down menu in the format bar

    How do I double space a document in Pages. The instruction say to use the Line Spacing control in the format bar, but there is NO Line Spacing control in the drop down menu under Format. I'm writing a novel and I am having to manually double space after every line. It is **** when I am trying to edit my work.

    The computer is not too old (and neither are you ).   It may be better if you could upgrade it from 10.5.8 to 10.6 ... but that would not solve this problem.
    As both Paul and I have advised ... get yourself on Pages > go to the View menu and halfway down is the option 'Show Inspector'.   You'll end up with a panel like Paul showed you in his post of 08:42.   Let's see what you can do from there.

  • How do I un-delete a website from the drop down menu?

    I deleted a website from the awesome bar before. Now I want that website to appear on the drop down menu again. I visit it almost everyday but I cannot see it on the awesome bar. How can I fix this?

    Hi thankyou,
    If it was removed it may no longer be listed, however if you have visited the site again I am guessing two things are happening if it does not show up:
    #The settings for your url bar have changed, check to make sure that history is checked in the Location bar settings about:preferences#privacy
    #[[Remove websites from the Awesome Bar suggestions]]

  • In Mail 3.6 how can I delete address from the drop down menu?

    When I update an email address in the Address Book, the drop down menu in a new email is still the old address.

    I think I figured it out. I have to click on the arrow beside the smart address in a new email and delete it there. I tried removing previous recipients but without success. I'm not sure what the name of my software is. Maybe snow leopard. How can I find that?
    Thanks for the suggestion and it probably helped a lot of other users and would have helped me if I knew the software.

    Question
    I have lost all of my bookmarks from the drop-down menu. It says it is empty, but never have I deleted them. And when I bookmark a page it does not save it. Please help

    Ok this is bizzare!
    Thank you for your response, I went throught each and every step without any luck, even got the recovery programme, and painstakingly tried to sift through all that mumbojumbo to find what i needed. finally found the bookmark bit, but it had been fully overwritten :(, so on reading about previous ff versions, found the sqlite thingys, and they were relatively unscathed(partly written over, but saveable apparently TG), saved them to adiff drive, amongst other possibly good folders. Then looked up how to install them, and it said to close FF, and install to profile folder.
    So i tried to close FF, and the original problem from a few days ago, where it asked me if 'i was sure i wanted to close this window as it has X tabs open', popped up again. This is where 'open blank page' selection was set, over 'open previous tabs'. Wanting to save that info on how to sort out these friggin files, I reset the Option to 'open previous tabs', and closed FF. After unsucessfully searching for the profile folder on my laptop, i opened FF intending to search online for where i could find said folder.
    AND BANG, surprise surprise, the FF I had just closed with only tabs open about finding out what the heck to do, had disappeared, and instead my original saved tabs were up, and my bookmarks are there..... I am gobsmacked! what the heck just happened there???
    I have made 3 back up in different folders now, of those friggin bookmarks. I am weary now tho of shutting it all down.... what if its back to the other pages I had with no bookmarks, tomorrow :(

  • The bookmarks themselves exist. How can I put them back in the drop-down menu I have from Vista-Aero theme ?

    This happens when I start Firefox (v. 3.6.28) from desktop. I ussually start it from quick launch. I have a star shaped button, top left, that works like a drop-down menu for my bookmarks. But now there's only a small window there, and the bookmarks do not appear anymore. They are stored in the Bookmarks>>Unsorted bookmarks tab. But how the hell do I get them to the drop menu ?
    Did I mention that Restore doesn't ....... do anything ?
    Also I haven't changed any settings in the last 2 weeks.

    Staying with Firefox 3.6 is both EXTREMELY Insecure (you are vulnerable to almost every hole on [https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html] since Firefox 12), and you are using a version that is significantly slower, doesn't support modern web technology, and has known bugs (crashes, freezes, etc.). If it's just the UI you don't like, you can quickly and easily change the UI to look exactly like 3.6.
    So, until you update you are knowingly using an old version of software with dozens of known bugs.

  • Bookmarks toolbar changed from the right side of the drop-down menu to the left. How can I change it back on Firefox 4.0.1 for Mac?

    I just updated to Firefox 4.0.1. Some changes I don't like, especially that the Bookmarks toolbar opens to the left of the drop-down menu instead of the right. How can I change it?

    You may have bookmarks that have long title. Firefox 4 shows the full text of the bookmark name, so if it doesn't fit with opening to the right side the Firefox will open to the left side. You can scroll through the list and make the bookmarks with a long name shorter.

  • How do I alphabatize all my bookmarks from the drop down menu with the star on the Right side of screen?

    I want to alphabatize all my bookmarks that are in the drop down menu, the menu with the star icon, on the right side of the screen. I do not want to put them in folders or view them in the box from the menu bar and all the answers pertain to that box, and not to the one with the star. Thank you

    I don't think it's possible from the toolbar button.
    However, the action you take in the Bookmarks Sidebar or in the Library dialog will affect the Bookmarks Menu everywhere it is displayed, including the toolbar button, so you only need to use it for the few moments needed to use Sort By Name and then close it.
    Bookmarks Sidebar (either):
    * View menu > Sidebar > Bookmarks
    * Command+b
    Library dialog (either):
    * Bookmarks menu > Show All Bookmarks
    * Command+Shift+b
    right-click "Bookmarks Menu" > Sort By Name

  • Cannot remove autocomplete entry from address bar; have already cleared history, and entry is not in the drop-down menu of the address bar either.

    I am having problems removing an autocomplete entry from my address bar; I have tried clearing my history, so it's no longer in that, and I do not have it bookmarked either, so it's not getting the URL from that location either. The autocomplete entry isn't even showing up in the drop down menu, so I can't even scroll through that to delete it.
    Basically, I want to be able to type "st" and go to "store.steampowered.com"; however, despite numerous times of typing in "st" and then going down into the drop-down menu to choose "store.steampowered.com", the bar continues to autocomplete "steamtrades.com", which is exceptionally annoying because I do not have that website bookmarked, or in my history, yet it continues to autocomplete to that address, which I do not want it to autocomplete to, and cannot figure out how to remove because I've already cleared my history multiple times, do not have it bookmarked, and it is not showing up in the drop down of the address bar for me to go down and force delete it.

    Did you try to remove some letters from steamtrades.com to see if that bring this entry up in the drop-down list?
    If it is not in the history then it might be present with a typed=1 flag indicating that you have typed or pasted it in the location bar.
    You can use the SQLite Manager extension in Firefox to inspect the places.sqlite file to see if this entry comes up in the moz_places table.
    *SQLite Manager: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/sqlite-manager/
    <pre><nowiki>SELECT datetime(visit_date/1000000,'unixepoch') AS visit_date, url, title, visit_count, frecency
    FROM moz_places, moz_historyvisits
    WHERE moz_places.id = moz_historyvisits.place_id AND url LIKE '%steamtrades.com%'</nowiki></pre>
