How do I clear all personal data bookmarks history etc and import data from safari

I have a MacBookpro 10.6.8 and I am trying to clear ALL personal data on my new Firefox 12 (Bookmarks History etc) and then import all settings from my Safari. I've deleted the Firefox application as well as Library/application support/mozilla and Firefox still retains all of the old settings (Bookmarks History etc) from the old version 3
How do I do this.
Thanks

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
Make sure that Firefox is closed (Firefox > Quit Firefox) when you remove files in the profile folder.
You can also create a new profile.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
You can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile if you want to keep some data.

  • How to undo Safari copying bookmarks, history, favorites, and reading list from Macbook Pro to iMac after Yosemite update?

    I just updated my iMac 27inch Mid 2011 to Yosemite 10.10.2.  I have a Macbook Pro that I primarily use for everyday stuff. I upgraded to Yosemite a while ago on my macbook. Now that I upgraded my iMac, it transferred everything saved in Safari on my macbook pro to my iMac. My favorites, history, bookmarks, and reading list were copied over. This is driving me nuts! I had a separate set of data saved on the iMac because I use it for different purposes. All of the original bookmarks, favorites, history, etc. on my iMac are now gone. I logged out of iCloud (which was a feature I did not enjoy when upgrading to Yosemite) yet all of the safari data from my laptop is still cloned onto my iMac. Please tell me there is a way to undo this or refresh safari pre-Yosemite update!
    Thank you!

    Then there's no way to recover the lost data. You will lose every bit of data you have if you don't start backing up.

  • How can I erase all personal data from an e72?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
    My one week old e72 came with a scratch under the glass. I have been a bit worried that any pressure on the phone in the future might lead the screen to crack, so to be on the safe side I am having the handset replaced straight away by my mobile network. 
    I am expecting a doorstep exchange in the morning, and they will collect the old phone all boxed up and provide a new sealed e72 in the box. 
    So, I need to delete all my information from the handset and memory card. So far I have formatted the memory card and done a factory reset from the phone menu, then a factory reset as detailed in another thread I found on here (* +3 + call). 
    But this hasn't removed my email accounts, text message inbox or calendar appointments from the phone, or removed applications that I installed. 
    Is there a simple way to erase all private data, as I really don't want the handset going back with all my work and private details on there.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Yep, make sure it gets the most recent update when you get it (guide): http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-update
    I would recommend to use memorycard as messagememory. You fixe that in messaging->options->settings->other.
    Try to install all 3rd party apps on memorycard and stay away from awkward themes
    Clear the privacy data within the browser once in a while (if you surf a lot).
    As much free space on the phone memory seems to be a good thing. I had the E71, and E72 and never had better phones with better buildquality. The E72 is fast too.
    If you concider this thread as Solved, set it as solved and set the post you felt answered your questions as solution. Enjoy your new device!

    im desperately seeking for somebody who knows how i can clear all of the songs off my mini ipod so that i can start a fresh in intunes to upload new songs. ive misplaced my handbook somewhere so if anyone is able to help me i would be very grateful. thank you GB24

    my ipod picks and chooses when i connect whether its going to update or not,
    In Auto, it updates every time you connect it.
    If you do not change anything it iTunes, the update will take only a second because there was nothing changed to update.

  • How do I clear all of the java applets that have been downloaded?

    I migrated firefox and other applications to my new mac so that I would not to reenter all of my passwords saved by firefox. However, it appears that the java applets were also transfered and one of these applets does not work with the new intel mac. I was able to get the same applet to work in safari, and I was able to delete the applet from safari as well, but was unable to do so in firefox.
    So, how do I clear all of the previously downloaded applets, or even better, just the one I want to? Clearing all of the recent history didn't work.
    Here is the site:

    I did that already, and it cleared the applets for Safari, but not for Firefox.

  • I bought a used iphone 4 today. how to transfer all my old and important data including apps and email settings from old iphone 3gs to the used iphone 4?

    i bought a used iphone 4 today. how to transfer all my old and important data including apps and email settings from old iphone 3gs to the used iphone 4? that means, making the iphone 4 just like the iphone 3gs?

    Well, you sink everything on your 3GS onto your laptop/computer. Then you reset your iPhone 4. When you are restarting it, add all those apps music (ect)  On to it. It seems difucult but for more info call Apple. I did that and he lead me step by step on how to do it. Well hope this helped~~

    Hi... I am running a dual core, Win7 64bit PC, with Firefox Regular and Nightly on it... I also have 32bit Win XP Virtual PC on the same PC with Regular Firefox... How do I sync all of them to give me the same bookmarks, history, cookies and passwords ???

    I assume that you have separate Profiles for the Release and Nightly installations.

  • How do I clear all my messages on my iphone 4S as I cannot gain access to my messages at all?

    Firstly, I receive sms's (alarm signals) on a daily basis and have not been deleting them due to the fact that I want to keep record of them in the event that I may be needing them as evidence at a later stage.  It has now reached the stage where I cannot open my messages at all.  I only get a blank screen which eventually returns to the menu.
    At present I have 1904 unopened messages due to this.
    What do I do to gain access to my messages and how do I clear all my messages on my iphone 4S so that I can start fresh?  I have already created a backup.

    Thanks for the information, but that was the first thing I did and without any positive result.
    Let me give a bit more detail of the actual problem.
    My Messages Icon indicates that I have 2325 unread messages.  This is true, because when I do tap the Icon to enter the Messages I get a totally blank screen.  This screen eventually returns back to the menu page.
    I believe that I have to many messages on the phone and therefore I am sitting with this problem and would like to erase all messages.
    I have tried reseting the phone and reactivating it from a backup, but this still reloads all the messages back as well.  So I am totally frustrated.

  • CS5: How do I clear all width points from a line?

    The width tool is cool, but how do I get rid of all points I created if I don't like them? I know I can delete them by shift-clicking all, but it's a lot of work and I'm not really sure I'm getting them all. Is there a clear all somewhere?

    Select the path and open the Stroke panel. Look for a pull-down at the bottom labelled Profile. From this, select Uniform.
    The same setting is available on the Control Panel and in the Stroke settings in the Appearance panel.
