How do I clear out history on the iPhone search located on home screen

Past text messages come up in the iPhone search even though they were deleted and are no longer in phone book.

Only by restoring your phone as a new device, not from backup. The data is in a cache that is not user accessible. It will eventually be overwritten as you use your phone. But, if you want it gone now, restoring as new will get rid of it.

  • How do I remove a name from the iPhone search function (extreme left page of apps)?, How do I remove a name from the iPhone search function (extreme left page of apps)?

    Even after deleting emails and sms messages, a whole lot still show up on the search page. Ideas?

    You are correct, the Search Function is very powerful. It even retrieves deleted information. If you really want to delete it, only way I know would be to Restore. But if you Restore from Back-Up, some of those unwantd messages and information may crop up again. You may have to Restotre and Set Up as New iPhone.

  • I entered the incorrect password for my home wifi network and now I can't change it. How do I clear out the wrong password so that I can enter a correct one?

    I entered the incorrect password for my home wifi network, and now I can't change it. How do I clear out the wrong password so that I can enter a correct one?

    Settings > wi-fi  then tap on the little blue arrow next to the network you want to change. You have to tap on the blue arrow and not on the name.
    Now at the top tap on "forget this network".
    After that, the iPhone will think your home network is a new network and will ask you for the password to connect.

  • How do I clear call history from a 6500A Printer?

    I am upgrading to a new HP printer and want to donate my 6500A, but need to clear the call history first.  There was a tool to clear fax log, but how do I clear call history?  I checked after clearing the fax log, and all the phone numbers are still listed in the call history.
    Maybe a better question is whether I can reset to factory defaults, clearing all settings/history?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    As it turned out, I contacted HP by phone and received excellent help. 
    There is a subset menu that can be found when you tap the 'back' icon... the icon on outside the lit display that does not show up until you tap it.  They had me find the appropriate page and do a 'partial reset'.  That brings the printer back to the page where the next time it is turned on, it will ask for all of the original set-up questions and all memory is deleted.  I have therefore been able to donate the machine to the local Women Helping Women organization with no concerns that I may also have donated a list of contacts!  Thanks to HP for the excellent customer service!

    While browsing eBay, when I watch or bid on an item, and later view it again, many inches of white space appears before item appears. If I delete the clear recent history box, the pages will come up as they should for several times, then go back to a lot of extra white space. How can I prevent this? Thank you, Rick in English

    As stated in 1.:
    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
    Obviously, it will not harm your computer provided you follow the instructions. However, if you don't post your results in the thread where you were given those instructions, then the person helping you cannot help you further. As he asks at the end, "please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created."

  • HT201359 how can i find out what all the charges on my checking account are for?

    how can i find out what all the charges on my checking account are for?

    If you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases - the most recent purchase is above the list. I'm not sure if that shows auto-renewing subscriptions (I don't have any so I can't check).
    If you can't find the charges and you haven't added or changed your card details on your account (when you do then a small temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the details are correct and valid, which should disappear within a few days) then you can contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • How do I clear out my Camera Roll?

    How can I clear out all the photos in my Camera Roll? (Other than manually selecting each one and hitting delete)

    When there are photos and/or videos in the Camera Roll, the iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer, and can be imported and deleted from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete as with any other digital camera.
    If you use iPhoto on your Mac for photo storage and management and for importing photos from any other digital camera, you can use iPhoto for this. iPhoto includes an option to delete the photos from a digital camera after the import process is complete and the same for the iPhone's Camera Roll. Or you can use the Image Capture application located in your Applications folder for this which includes the same option after the import process is complete.

  • How do you clear out a tree control?

    I am editing items in a tree control, when the editing is complete, I re-build the tree to represent what I have after the edit.  My process of deleting the items one-by-one has worked fine until the tree scrolled off the top, then, when I select the top-left item and delete everything under it, I miss the ones that have scrolled off the top.
    What's the method/property I should use to clean out a tree in one operation?  (before rebuilding)

    Originally I had, "How do you clear out a tree?".  That's why I added "control".

    I created a new apple id and signed in the app store. When I update my apps, it requires me to sign in with my old apple id, and I cannot sign out my old id. How can I sign out or remove the old id in app store's updates?

    Delete those applications and then download them from the new Apple ID. This may require repurchasing them.
