Deleting search history

Hi there
So here's my problem
When I search something from the browser and would like to delete search history it's not totally being deleted...
I've tried going to the 3 dots tapping clear history and clearing cookies and other data
But whenever I go to the integrated search between the call and camera icons and type in the keywords it all shows up in suggestions ( links to all the pass sites I been on)
I've went into settings tapped on search tapped clear search but nothing happens it's all there
So my question is how to I delete those search suggestions when I type from the integrated search icon on BlackBerry z10???
Please please please help

if u fill the checkmark again
doesnt it all show back up....when u retype keywords from a pass web search???
try it, its all still there
there must be a way to completely delete all those saved history links other than completely security wiping the phone...
Let's recap.
1) Clear the history and cookies/data as you noted in your first post.
2) Then go to the home screen > Settings > Search. Tap Categories. Scroll down to Browser and clear that checkmark. (Uncheck it.)
3) While still in search, tap History > Delete Search History.
After these steps, your device should have no record of web sites you've browsed, except those with bookmarks saved. You could also do a restart for good measure.

What is the shortcut to delete search history in the Google search bar?

I did a google search for this question before, and VIOLA!
However, I have forgotten the simple procedure.
There was a way to highlight all the search history in the Google search bar (Large one in center of page)
Then press ???control and another key? I forget...please help.
Thanks for any and all help.
I much enjoy Firefox over Explorer, which was kicking my offline continually!
FIREFOX solved all issues.
Thanks,

How to delete Search History in Ovi Maps 3.06 (Nok...

Disappointing to say the least.
Data is stored in:
C:\private\20001f63\searchhistory.s2d
C:\private\20001f63\settings\recent.s2d
Maybe there are other files involved like all.s2d but deleting those files emptied my map and drive mode search, enough.
Aren't there bettery ways to do it?

@m80116
Congratulations on tracking these files down as previously N8 either needed updating to v3.08Beta or firmware re-flashed to purge maps history!
Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

How can I get rid of "History and Bookmarks" section from the search history drop down menu in safari 6.0.2?

Let's just say I have saved bookmarks of things that i do NOT want my friends to see when they use my computer occasionally. I know they could go and find these bookmarks anyway in the bookmarks menu but they dont snoop around my computer. i would rather it not just pop up when they go to search for something or type in a webpage. If there is no way to customize what shows up in the drop down menu for search results then that is something apple overlooked. Not everybody wants things all in one place. Whats the point of deleting search history and website history if its just going to show the certain things you have bookmarked? Any solution to this would be appreciated. One solution i thought would work was disabling search from suggesting, but i guess that only supresses the webpages not the url/search bar. Oh and this is for safari 6.0.2 please dont give me outdated advice.
Thanks

Why is safari automatically erasing search history

My iphone 4 is automatically deleting search history after a couple days... Is this common and how do i stop it?

Ok hmmm... Now I just looked at the history, and a day that was previously deleted is now back on the history tab. So it's deleting a whole weeks worth of history, and then a couple days later, one day comes back. Any suggestions? Has anyone else experienced this??

I am unable to delete Form & Search History (it's greyed out as an option to be deleted under the clear recent hisotry tab) help!

my son has used my computer to visit porn websites and I want to delete the Form and Search history so the drop down with these sites is eliminated. The instructions said to go to History > clear recent history and then chose Form and Search history, but it won't allow me to choose this (it's greyed out). How do I do this?

I found this link for a similar problem someone had with a Lotus Notes account. I used it to resolve my issue with a different email account (basically followed the same steps, and then looked for the particular account I needed to delete)... hope it helps!

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

Hi All !

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 to Delete Messages in Spotlight Search History without Resetting or Syncing!!

I know there are a lot of individuals dealing with this issue and if you are like me you spend hours searching "how to delete messages in spotlight search history" and it seems like every post either says to reset your phone or sync it! I'm sorry but I did not want to go through the hassle of resetting my phone but I did try to sync it which did nothing so I decided to just mess around with my settings and I believe to have found the answer to everyone's question!!
This worked for me so I really hope this works for you! Just follow the steps below:
1. Go to <settings><general><spotlight search><uncheck messages>
2. Then turn your phone off and wait a minute! Turn your phone back on and off again 2 or 3 more times while waiting a minute in between turning it off!
3. After you are done doing that go back to step 1 and <check messages>!
4. Now go to your spotlight search and those messages should be deleted! If they are deleted I would recommend going back to step 1 and <uncheck messages> so you do not have the same problem with messages showing up again in the spotlight search!
It works for Mail too! Just follow the same steps listed above but uncheck mail instead of messages or do both at the same time!!
*Here is an extra tip which will remove deleted Mail Messages, just follow the steps below:
1. Go to <settings><mail, contacts, calendars><your mail account> scroll down and click <advanced> Now click <remove> under the title Deleted Messages and you can choose to have your mail removed After One Day, After One Week, After One Month or Never.
I hope this post was detailed enough and easy to understand!
I really hope it works for you like it did for me!
Good Luck!!!

I tried this fix and it does not work.
I have read that this is a problem for a long time - years. Me, personally, I do have emails and texts from the past that are private and were deleted, that I do not want my husband or daughter to read. Many people have this complaint and have had it a long time. Why does Apple not fix it?!?
Another privacy issue is the iMessage default settings on new devices. We bought a new iPhone for my college-age daughter and received all of her text messages until we noticed it and told her. We did a temporary fix. Then I got a new iPhone and the same thing happened. I had to set up iCloud accts. for each of us so that we each have privacy that cannot be tampered with. We still share our original iTunes account. Why did that have to happen?!?
We have been Apple consumers (laptops, iPads, iPods, iPhones) for over ten years (? longer w/just desk top) w/ the same account. These breaches in privacy are upsetting!! My point here is that these breaches are unacceptable! The spotlight search issue appears to be unresolved. FIX THIS APPLE!
