How do I clear the browsing history on my iPad?

How do I clear the browsing history on my iPad 2?

Settings > Safari > Clear History (and Clear Cookies And Data if you want to clear them as well).
If you also want to clear your search history (i.e. the words/phrases that you've typed in the search box) then you may also need to close Safari completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

    How can I clear the browser pull down list, I have followed directions using options and it just won`t clear

    Entries in the location bar drop down list with a yellow (blue on Mac) star at the right end are bookmarks.<br />
    You can remove such a bookmarked item that shows in the list if you open that url in a tab and click the yellow star in the location bar.<br />
    This will open the "Edit This Bookmark" dialog and you can click the Remove button to remove the bookmark if you want to remove such a bookmarked entry.<br />

  • How do you clear the recent history list (as this function was lost in one of the last app updates )?

    Since this function was apparently lost in one of the last adobe reader app updates, how now are you supposed to clear the recent history, but retain the files on my nexus tablet?

    Hello,
    That explains why I am no longer able to clear the recent history list...
    I understand that removing/deleting the files from my device will remove the files from my list. However this in not ideal for me, as I would like to be able to go back and look at the papers that I have previously read and then be able to clear the recent list. Also, if I can clear the list without removing the files from my device, I can keep track of what I have recently read, and move those files into a second folder on my device to say that I have read the papers at least once. That way I would still have the papers on my device but can clear the list and know that I have read the papers. Thus I really would like a way to clear your history from the recents list, ideally with the option of clearing individual files from the list, as well as a second option to clear all files from the recent list, while retaining the original files on the device.
    Thanks and have a good day,
              Trevor

  • How do I clear The Browser Cache ?

    I can't find the setting to Clear Browser Cache when I pull down the Safari Setting; how can I clear the cache now?

    Are you running  Safari 6?
    Click Safari in the menu bar and click "About Safari"
    The resulting window will show the Safari verion number.
    The method described in the previous post works with Safari 6.

  • In IOS 8 how do I clear the maps history?

    Although this question has been asked before, the answers must be out of date as it entails hitting the "bookmarks" button in the upper right hand corner to delete the history in the Apple Maps app. That bookmarks button is not there. Does anyone know how to delete the Maps history in IOS 8? Thanks much for the help!

    It is not a search history but an autocompleted list to help you find what you are looking for - which comes from the iTunes Music Store server.

  • How do you clear the email history for addresses on the Z10 ?

    I would like to know how to delete the history of names on the BBZ10 please.
    You know like on outlook when you dont want an address to appear again you bring up the address and then highlight it and then hit the delete button and its gone from your history for good.
    Well how do you do it with BB's?
    I have email addresses that I have deleted from the contacts list and yet they still come up when i start to type up another email?
    Surely this must be a no brainer but I'm missing something.
    I used to have this same issue with my Torch and my 9800 before that.
    Does anybody know how to fix this problem for me please?
    I hope my explanation has been clear enough as well.
    Appreciate the solution greatly.
    thanks,

    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.

  • How can I access the iMessages history on my ipad, either using my ipad itself or via itunes or windows explorer to view the files on my desktop PC?

    I have a long stream of iMessages on my iPad from messaging friends, and I can view messages by scrolling to the top of the screen and clicking 'Load Earlier Messages' and it loads about 20 or so previous messages. But where are these messages being stored and how can I view them? I occassionally need to access messages from a while back but I don't want to keep scrolling up and loading from my current point one click at a time. How can I view these iPad files?
    Thanks a lot

    The only way to do it is the way you are doing it now. You can take screen shots of them as you are viewing them and edit those together to keep on your PC if you want to do it that way.

  • Clearing the browser cache....how?

    just loaded Firefox a few days ago...need to clear the browser history. What is the procedure?

    Hi waynesch,
    You should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[Clear Recent History]]. This process allows you to clear multiple items at once. The article has a video tutorial and should provide you with all of the information you need.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Firefox doesn't delete the browsing history in the address bar

    No matter what you do with Firefox in clearing the browsing history by going to History -> Clear Recent History and deleting everything or resetting FF by going to Troubleshooting information, Firefox doesn't delete the browsing history. The website you have browsed still appear in the address bar.
    Several people already have complained about this issue (see thread https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/939028) and the answer from the Firefox staff is that there is got to be a malware. This is not true, I've seen versions of Firefox in clean computers both Windows and Mac with Firefox doing the same thing, or more like not doing what it's supposed to do: clean the browsing history.
    How unsafe is that. Where is your privacy? Firefox has to find a way to fix this glitch. Something tells me they're doing it on purpose because it hasn't been fixed after the complains.

    You can delete the places.sqlite file if you aren't able to clear all history.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Bookmarks+not+saved#w_fix-the-bookmarks-file
    Are that entries that appear if you click the arrow at the far right of the location bar?
    Do these items have a star to indicate that they are bookmarks?

  • 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.

  • On a Mac, how do you export/download the browsing history (not bookmarks)? Thank you!

    On a Mac, how do you export/download the browsing history (not bookmarks)? Thank you!

    You can't export the History in Firefox. It is possible to copy History items and paste them to a Bookmarks Folder and export the Bookmarks to an HTML or paste the history items to an HTML editor.
