How can I reset Safari?

          Is it possbile to absolutly reset my iPhone Safari to complete default? By that I mean all the default settings, no bookmarks, reading list, etc. And of coarse without actually restoring the device? I have previously asked this question for the safari on Mac and someone answering it and now I'm wondering if it is possible on the iPhone.. Thanks!

You can use Settings > Safari > Clear History and Clear Cookies and Data, but that is it.

  • How can I reset safari without losing passwords?

    I need to empty my Safari cache (it's been about a year).  But, I've been told that my automatic password recognition from websites that I visit the most will be reset and I'm not sure if I can remember all of those pesky characters. What if I clear the cache and I am not recognized by my favorite websites for which I have extensive history and cannot access my purchase history, preferences, etc.?  That would suck.
    So is there a way to sweep out the Safari cache WITHOUT having to start over on all of my passwords/information.
    Thanks for any input!
    Chad

    empty it and if you had already used it, the password will be in your keychain. just simple start typing the username and then hit tab, it should autofill.
    your passwords will still be in "keychain", look for it in spotlight.

  • How can I  reset Safari?  There is no option visible under Safari menu?

    I am trying to speed up safari which is very slow for me.

    Hello Eric,
    Thank you for your help.
    I tried everything except dump website data under privacy in preferences.
    I also think I may have changed the regular settings on Safari.
    Would you know how I reset all of Safari to what it was when I first used it?
    Just slow on loading pages, etc.  Looking to speed up to whee it once was.
    Thank you for your help!

  • How do you reset Safari if Reset has been changed to 'Clear History and Website Data'

    On my Macbook Pro, OS X 10.10.2, How can I reset Safari if the Reset has been replaced with 'Clear History and Website Data'

    Hi feijoada (and hi Yang ,
    The 'Form Values' file stores various autofill details - you didn't mention that file earier - did you also try moving that to the Desktop and retrying Safari to see if that was the problem? It can be found in the /Users/YourUsername/Library/Safari folder as well.

  • How can I reset my Mac to default settings? Or how can I reset it to a prior date? My Mac has a virus and I would like to get rid of it. I would appreciate your help concerning this matter.

    How can I reset my Mac to default settings? Or how can I reset it to a prior date? My Mac has a virus and I would like to get rid of it. I would appreciate your help concerning this matter.

    To restore it follow these instructions: What to do before selling or giving away your Mac.
    Before you do the above check out the following;

    If you are having an immediate problem with ads popping up see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide, AdwareMedic, or Remove unwanted adware that displays pop-up ads and graphics on your Mac - Apple Support.
    Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click on Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If this stops your problem, then re-enable them one by one until the problem returns. Now remove that extension as it is causing the problem.

    Fix Some Browser Pop-ups That Take Over Safari.
    Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
    Quit Safari
    Usually, these pop-ups will not go away by either clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
    Relaunch Safari
    If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
    This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one.

  • How can I reset my lock passcode without plugging it into the computer or restoring it or resetting any data?

    I went I to my phone and I tried to unlock my passcode but it did not let me in, how can I reset my lock passcode without plugging it onto the computer on iTunes, or restoring it or deleting any data ?

    You don't. The only way to remove the passcode if forgotten is to restore the device. If you have a backup, you can restore to that last backup, but anything done since that last backup would be lost.Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support

    LizMaddock,
    you can reset the input source to Spanish by selecting the Keyboard pane of System Preferences, selecting the Input Sources tab, and pressing the “+” button in the lower-left corner to select one of the Spanish input sources. The “Spanish – ISO” input source is most similar to the physical Spanish keyboard layout.
