How do I add and delete Finder Favorites

In the Finder window you can create Favorites - folders you want easy access to.
Now I'm ready to delete a few of these "Favorites"
The Finder doesn't seem to want me to.  It seems to want to trash the actual folders that these finder favorite aliases are pointing to.
How do I delete a Finder FAvorite?
I'm sure it's so simple.  Apple Help menu was no help
Steve

Thanks for the heads up.
I use a MacBook Pro tethered to a desktop array of backup drives, a 20" screen and an external keyboard from some unknown previous generarion
Across the room is my old PowerBook G4 similarly set up.
If I look at the 2 old keyboards and the Powerbook keyboard, that key still has the squiggley on it and the apple logo.
Only when I squint over this keyboard at the actual keyboard of the MacBook Pro do I see the truth in your statement.  Clearly printed on that key is the word "command"
Well bless my stars.
You taught me something else today
Thanks again
Steve
I'm going out to buy a new keyboard for my MacBook Pro anyway.  Th "e" key doesn't work well on this old kyboard.

  • How do I add and delete calendars to my iPod Touch 4

    I'm not meaning specific events here.  I want to delete the ENTIRE calandar linked to my email, along with all events connected to it.  I THOUGHT I was adding birthdays to a birthday list, but no, all my events linked to my email.  I don't want them to link to my email.  I WANT to make a calandar for my payday events, and use a separate one for birthdays, and still another for appointments.  How do I create a separate calendar for each of these things, and delete the one associated with my email?
    *Edit, I finally figured out how to delete my email calendar, but now I'm stuck with a generic one I can't label instead, along with the birthday calendar.  Further, when I try to add a birthday to ONLY the birthday calendar it adds it to the general instead.  I WANT my birthdays on the birthdays and so on.  How do I fix this??
    **Sorry, for the caps but this is seriously infuriating at this point.  I just want this thing to do what I tell it not what it wants to.

  • How to add and delete content on device from iTunes

    I cannot find the way to add and delete content on my devices from the new iTunes. I don't understand why they changed the way it worked without any tutorials or hints at how to use the new iTunes app. I can see my device, I can see that music is on there, but I cannot unselect songs or content to get rid of it. Also, my apps do not show up on the apps list, I can see the screens with the apps on them and can delete them from that but the list is not working. I am using Yosemite and iTunes 12.01

    If you select your device in iTunes then on the left-hand side of iTunes you should see a Settings heading with categories below it which you can use to select what to sync from your iTunes library to the device, and below that an On My Device heading with categories below it listing what is on the device.
    For the Apps tab, the listbox of apps on my Mac's iTunes doesn't always populate until I've scrolled up/down the window. If yours doesn't populate then you have your apps downloaded and stored in your Mac's iTunes library - the listbox shows what you have in your computer iTunes library, if your library is empty then the listbox will remain empty.

    In IOS7/Ad safari, how can I edit or delete safari favorites?
    Thanks!
    Alan

    Thank you so much!   This solved my problem.
    I wish Apple made this sort of thing more accessible in its documentation somewhere.   I Google'd extensively but was unable to find anything relevant.
    Thanks much again!
    Alan
    P.S. -- I assume there's no way to delete multiple bookmarks/favorites simultaneously (I did it one at a time)...

  • Fitbit does not sync with healthvault no matter how many times I add and delete it

    My healthvault never shows any information synced from fitbit.com, I have the scales and a tracker and no matter how many times I add and delete it through the fitbit share healthvault page but  it never ever syncs over night. I have left is weeks and
    still nothing in HV.
    I am starting to wonder if HV supports fitbit? Any help would really be appreciated, this is driving me insane.
    Do I need to create a new account? is my account just broken?

    Hi,
    I have spoken with FitBit about this issue and they provided the following:
    Since you have already linked and unlinked your account and still having issues please contact Fitbit Support (http://help.fitbit.com/?cu=1)
    for further assistance."
    Addititionally when you contact FitBit can you please let them know that you have already contacted HealthVault.
    Thanks

  • How do I add or delete a quick link from Firefox's home page.

    How do I add or delete a quick link from Firefox's home page. I don't use most of the links and would like to add other quick links.

    You can change the order of the boxes on the about:newtab page and drag an item to a different slot to pin it to that position or you can remove a website by clicking the close X to block that URL.<br />
    You can drag a bookmark or history item and drop them in a slot on the about:newtab page to pin them and have your own favorites sites showing.
    Changes made manually on the about:newtab page are stored in the browser.newtabpage.pinned (default = [null]) and browser.newtabpage.blocked prefs that you can check/modify on the about:config page (Bug 791447).

  • Problem with Read-only user being able to add and delete files and folders.

    The setup:
    Computer #1
    iMac (intel) running 10.5.5
    File sharing ON
    Sharing folder on external USB drive called 'iTunes' (but not the drive volume itself)
    Users:
    - Everyone = Read Only
    - Admin(me) = Read/write
    - UserA = Read Only (with account PW and username identical to local login for computer below)
    Computer #2
    UserA's iBook G4 running 10.4.11
    When I go to finder>network>iMac>connect it prompts me to login which I do and then select 'iTunes' folder which is visible and mounts successfully. I can see all files, access them all. Life seems great. Then I discover that I can also modify and delete files from the iBook, and create and delete directories.
    I'm new to networking and although I've setup and managed minimal networking tasks on PCs before, this is my first foray into the Mac networking world. Please help.
    What am I doing wrong? What haven't I set?
    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry, I should have clarified this in the first email.
    When I login from the iBook, I am logging in under a read-only user (not as myself, who is admin on the iMac). The user on the iBook has only been given read-only permissions on the iMac yet is able to add and delete files.
    This read-only login/PW however, is the admin account on the iBook, but that shouldn't allow this person to write on the iMac so far as I understand things...right?

  • How do I add a delete website back in to the iWeb Program?

    How do I add a delete website back in to the iWeb program?
    I still have the files there are stored on the hard drive.

    If you deleted the site in iWeb and saved, then your site is lost.
    If you have not made a backup of the Domain.sites file before you deleted the site in iWeb, then you have nothing to fall back on.
    There is unfortunately no way of importing an existing site into iWeb - it just doesn't work that way.
    Your only option then is to cut and paste existing material from your published site back into iWeb.
