How do I clear the bookmarks and history on safari with ios 7 system?

I'm using safari on my ipad with ios 7.02 operating system.  I've searched for answers in several places but no one seems to know how to clear the bookmarks and history on safari which show up below the address bar when you type in a new website address.  Does anyone know how to clear this out?  I've searched several places and others seem to have the same problem.

Click on the bookmark icon > Edit > Create a New Folder and call it whatever you want then
Settings > Safari > Favorites > select the new empty folder you just created.
To clear the history:
Settings > Safari > Clear History
or
In Safari click the bookmark icon > History > Clear

  • I have the "Bookmarks and history system will not be functional" problem and not FireFox will not open at all and my whole computer freezes if I try.

    For a few weeks now, I've been getting the "Bookmarks and history system will not be functional..." message. When I clicked for more information, FireFox would freeze.
    I found a solution about a new places database, but for the past few days I can't get FireFox to open at all. Then my whole system is frozen and I have to turn it off to get it going again, thus losing a lot of unsaved data.
    How can I get FireFox back?

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • I get an error when starting firefox on several user profiles: the bookmarks and history are not functional something about the file being in use.

    Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 workstations, the appdata folder is redirected to a network share at \\server\profiles and several users are unable to use bookmarks getting an error about the file being in use. I'm wondering if maybe my antivirus (Trend Micro) or my backups (Symantec) might be locking up the places.sqlite for these users? Though I don't understand why it would be for some users and not others. I can't be the first one and I'm not coming up with anything searching google endlessly. Anybody else run into this?

    hello, yes this is likely caused by an external program locking access to the bookmarks/history database. you could try renaming the file in question & see if it is working when it is regenerated, this will clear bookmarks and the history though, so keep a backup...

  • How can I clear the stored browsing history in iCloud?

    As the headline says, how can I clear the stored browsing history in iCloud?
    After resetting my iPhone, previous history came back as soon as I signed in with iCloud on it. I would really like this to not occur.

    The only place that Thunderbird gets suggested addresses is from your address books. I have seen some not show up in the books because some key info was never stored when the contact was saved.
    Sometimes you can start a new message and when the bad contact shows up select it. Create the message and save it to drafts. Then you can go to the Draft folder open the draft message by right clicking and select Open Message in Tab. Then click the star to the right of the contact and it will open the contact edit button. From there you can delete the contact.
    This does not always work though.

  • Followed the instructions in "the bookmarks and history..." article but cannot retrieve my bookmarks. Initial problem was caused by an AVG Free upgrade which was done this morning. How do I get my "stuff" back?

    Upgraded AVG Free this morning. Next Firefox opening got the message "bookmarks and history system will not be functional" etc.
    Followed the instructions in the article but no recovery occurred. Then spent 45 minutes on the phone with AVG, ending with them suggesting I re-install Firefox which I did (probably not wise). Still can't get back to where I was yesterday when I was a happy camper. How can I do that?

    No, AVG did not remove places.sqlite from the profile. In following the instructions given by Firefox I renamed that file by adding .old. The instructions then told me to re-open Firefox, and that when it reopened "it would create a new places database. Your browsing history will be lost but Firefox will automatically import your bookmarks from the most recent backup file." This DID NOT happen. I have not yet tried the steps in the "Lost Bookmarks" article.
    Yes, the folder "bookmarkbackups" is still in the profile folder, and time-wise it predates me renaming the places file.
    I do not know whether it is possible to set AVG to ignore certain directions?

  • How do I clear incorrect usernames that have accumulated on gmail? Clearing the cache and history do not help.

    Over time, due to me hitting wrong keys, my gmail login has accumulated several mistyped usernames. Every time I access gmail, they all pop up. I'd like to start clean, but I can't get rid of them. I've followed your instructions for clearing my cache and history, but to no avail. I've followed instructions to click inside the username window and then use the arrow and delete keys--also no success. I'm on a Mac, OSX 10.4.11. Thank you!

  • Reset all settings. how to recover all the bookmarks and add?

    Please, help.
    At one point, without my knowledge, reset all settings. How to restore all the tabs and add? It is very important to me! How could this happen and why? I did not do anything.

    If you have you have reset Firefox then a new profile is created and some personal data (bookmarks, history, cookies, passwords, form data) is automatically imported and the current profile folder will be moved to the desktop to an "Old Firefox Data" folder.<br />
    Installed extensions and other customizations (toolbars, prefs) that you have made are lost and need to be redone.
    If you otherwise created a new profile then check if there are still other profiles present
    You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder and go back one level to go to the Firefox/Profiles/ folder.

  • How do i clear the receiver and send buffer?

    I am trying to communicate with the Votsch 3050 thermal chamber, with LabVIEW as the control software via serial RS232. In sending the required ASCII strings, there was no response from the chamber, yet no error.
    The manufacturers indicate clearing the receive and send buffer using the the "PurgeComm(HANDLE hFile, DWORD dwFlags)" function in C, but offer no LabVIEW support.
    Does any one have any ideas on how i can do this using LabVIEW? Any Information or VIs would be greatly appreciated.

     @dsbuxi I have worked with many patient monitors. They often work in a client server setup. Data is not sent before you request it. And the communication has to follow a certain protocol. Your job will be to implement this protocol in Labview.  This is not too hard, but it requires some reading to understand the protocol. I am not able to send you any code, but feel free to ask if you need some help regarding the protocol 
    And you may have to order or make a custom cable. But you will also find this information in the protocol description. Good luck

    Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted
    (Sorry no Labview "brag list" so far)

  • How do I fix this error? The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application.

    I have tried numerous solutions being posted in this support forum. I went in and deleted my places.sqlite file so that it created a whole new profile. I then tried to restore my bookmarks, and nothing happened.
    I went in and discovered I had a places.sqlite.corrupt file. As suggested by one of the links provided in other articles, I deleted the other places.sqlite files, and then renamed the corrupt one as just places.sqlite. I restarted firefox and still nothing.
    Please don't just copy and paste the links to the two articles that have no yet helped me. I need to find out how to fix this because I had a lot of important information in my bookmarks!
