Deleting part of history in Safari

When using Safari, I find that I want to delete some items in my history (e.g. 5 items out of 10).
Instead of clearing all history. How do I do this? Any help would be appreciated.
Marta

Dear Friends,
Just by accident, I solved my own problem about deleting only part of my history in Safari. I clicked on “show all bookmarks,” then clicked on “history” and deleted only the items I wanted. To anyone who tried to help me with the answer, thank you but it won’t be necessary.
Aloha,
Marta

  • Deleting facebook search history in Safari

    I'm not able to delete my facebook search history in Safari.  Can anyone help?  I've tried clearing history, cache, cookies, etc.
    Thank you!

    Ok...maybe preferences are corrupted...
    Go to ~/Library/Prerferences
    Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
    Quit then relaunch Safari, go to the menu bar click History > Clear History
    If that helped, move the .plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash. If not, just move it back to the Preferences folder.
    If you don't want history saved when you visit Facebook, go to the Safari menu bar click Safari > Private Browsing

  • How to delete google search history in safari on itouch ?

    Hi All !
    I would like to know how I can delete the google search history in safari?
    Thanks

    I just found the answer somewhere else in the forum - it worked for me.
    Clear it while in Safari by going to bookmarks, then "History," and then the "Clear" button in the bottom left.

  • How Do I Delete ONLY The History in Safari 8.0?

    When attempting to delete the history, WITHOUT deleting website data, cookies and the like, the end result is that Safari 8.0 is basically reset. Is there a work-around or is this an Apple oversight?

    What is the URL of that start page?
    You can delete the formhistory.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder to remove all stored form data.
    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History > Show All History" or "View > Sidebar > History") or via the about:permissions page.
    Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make a note of those passwords and bookmarks.
    You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the involved files.
    It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.

  • IPad auto deleting browser history in safari

    My partners iPad(1) 16GB WiFi (Firmware 4.3.3) is deleting all browser history sparadically. For example it was there for 1 week and then deleted for 2 days running. Is this a reported fault or are they just manually clearing the history to hide stuff?

  • Delete History in Safari without Deleting Data

    I cannot delete JUST the HISTORY without deleting WEBSITE DATA in Safari with OS X Yosemite.  Every time I delete the history, I lose all my cookies that I need for certain websites.  Will Apple please fix this?

    Create an application from this Applescript with AppleScript Editor and run it whenever you want to clear just the history:
    tell application "Finder"
      activate
      delete file "History.db" of folder "Safari" of folder "Library" of folder "XXXX" of folder "Users" of startup disk
      empty trash
    end tell
    where XXXX is your Home folder name or user short name.

  • Is there a way to recover deleted history for Safari on an iPad2?

    Is there a way to recover deleted history for Safari on an iPad2?

    If it was on your iPad when you last backed up then you can try restoring to that backup - you will need to restore the whole iPad, you can't just restore a single app. Otherwise no, you can't recover it

  • I can delete history in safari but when i tap the Google icon on home page, it doesn't work

    I have Safari on the Home screen and it opens to Google. I never use that icon. There is also a separate Google icon. I want to delete all history and cookies from Google. I found instruction online for how to delete history from Safari which i did successfully. But when i touch the Google icon on Home screen, the history still is there. I just don't know what to do.  There must be a way. btw, i don't know why i have both Safari and Google. I might have added Google when i got the iPod or perhaps somone else did. i'm not sure it was there when i bought it.
    I really need to delete the history.  There must be someone out there who can tell me... and I would truly appreciate getting a solution. Thanks loads!!!

    I retraced my steps to how i got the Google app:
    App Store icon on Home Screen > Search, at bottom > entered Google
    The first Google App on the screen appears:
    Google logo small g in blue square: Google Search; Open (because it is already installed).  Below that is a picture of the iPod with the usual  Google Search screen.  I have never inserted a link into a discussion group so i hope you can open this.

    Does this bring us any closer?

  • Deleting google history on safari

    I have a question about deleting my google history from the iPhone. I have cleared the browsing history etc in general settings page but when in google if you type the first letter it gives you options that you have searched before. How do you delete these??
    Any suggestions?

    Ok, I know what you mean now, but don't know if there is a way to clear. Sounds the same as email addresses people complain about. If you hand type an email address when making an email it will remain there as well with no option to clear. The only way to clear (which odds are the same for the search) is to Restore your phone and don't load the backup but start fresh.
