How do I clear the "save as" dropdown menu settings?

When saving a file which I am downloading, I get a set of locations in the drop down menu after instantiating the save as prompt. I want to clear that information for several reasons, not the least of which is that many of the locations listed are not valid save locations. How do I accomplish this task?

  • 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.

  • How do I clear the start up drive to download the new operating system

    how do I clear the start up drive to download the new operating system

    Here are some general tips to keep your Mac's hard drive trim and slim as possible
    You should never, EVER let a computer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
    With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
    If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
    Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
    Have you emptied your Mac's Trash icon in the Dock?
    If you use iPhoto or Aperture, both have its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
    If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
    If you are an iMovie/ Final Cut user, both apps have their own individual Trash location that needs to be emptied, too!
    If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
    Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
    Look through your other Mailboxes and other Mail categories to see If there is other mail you can archive and/or delete.
    STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
    Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
    Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
    Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
    To find other large files, download an app called Omni Disk Sweeper.
    http://www.omnigroup.com/more
    Also, Find Any File
    http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/
    Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
    http://www.titanium.free.fr/downloadonyx.php
    When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
    Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
    move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
    If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.

    I'm afraid not.    It's not rocket science but you need to do some coding. 
    You'll need to find a script (php) and save it to your local site folder.  Then reference the script in your form's action attribute like so.
         <form action="path/form-to-email-script.php" >
    The input fields in your HTML form need to exactly match the script variables. 
    I'm  assuming you're hosted on a Linux server which uses PHP code.  Linux servers are also case sensitive, so upper case names are not the same as lower case names.  It's usually best to use all lower case names in your form and script to avoid confusion.

  • I have forgotten my password and locked my phone, how can i clear the problem

    I have forgotten my password and locked my phone, how can i clear the problem

    By coincidence, this happened to my son just last night.  You do NOT have to restore it to a new phone, but you probably want a current backup.
    Luckily, you can still sync and back it up even if it's locked, so connect it to the computer you usually sync it to. Go to the summary page. It's easiest and fastest to use a local backup, so if iCloud backup is on, turn it off and click "Backup now".  
    After it backs up, either click "Restore iPhone", or
    - hold home and the top button until the screen goes black, release the top and continue to hold the home button until iTunes says "iPhone in recovery mode detected". 
    Follow instructions to restore from backup, and then sync to restore content.  Your phone will come up in an unlocked state. If you have any stuff that was purchased directly to the iPhone (only), you'll have to re-download it. 
    Remember to turn iCloud backups back on if you use them.
    If you don't sync you iPhone to a computer then I *think* those instructions with the buttons will put it into a mode where you can restore it from the cloud (make sure it is NOT connected to a computer while you do this). Otherwise, you will have to restore it as a new phone, then go to settings, reset, then restore it from the cloud.

  • How do I clear the downloads folder?

    How do I clear the downloads folder?  I swear there used to be an option for this when I right clicked on the downloads folder that is on my bottom bar but I don't see one now.  This is making me crazy.
    Also, when I click on the bottom bar Downloads folder to display the items in the Downloads folder, I've selected it to be arranged as a fan and by the date added.  I've downloaded two copies of the same item and did this back to back because I didn't see the first download in the folder once I'd downloaded it.  I don't see the first of the two downloads unless I open the whole folder in its own window.  Shouldn't I see them both at the bottom of the list since they are the two most recent downloads?  I'd accidentally downloaded duplicate copies previously and it had displayed them in this manner.
    Please help!

    The best way to delete is just open them in finder.  Mark them all and delete.
    In the fan, you can select the sort order by right click (cntl click) the download folder and choosing "sort by" date added.

  • How do I move the 'save as' dialog out of my way in Preview?

    I have a stack of pdf files to rename, for which I need to read the contents. The filenames are composed from the authors, title and date which are inside the documents. The trouble is that I can't save them without the 'save as' dialog occluding the document, which I need to see in order to fish out the authors, title and date.
    How can I move the 'save as' dialog off the document view?
    Is there another way around this problem?
    I'm using Snow Leopard's version of Preview, in case it matters.

    Yes, that makes it pretty much impossible if you need to grab text from various places first and assemble it into the file name you want.
    I can copy/paste text out of a PDF with the Adobe Reader into a Save As dialogue box, but then run into your same issue with Preview. I can't move back to the document to get another snippet of text.

  • How to find out the save as setting information in illustrator cs3?

    How to find out the save as setting information in illustrator cs3 through programmatically. I saved the file using the setting like Overprint, EmbedAllFonts, IncludeDocumentThumbnails throgh scripting. But i don't know how to find out the save as setting information(Overprint, EmbedAllFonts, IncludeDocumentThumbnails) whether the checkbox true or not through scripting. Kindly advice me.

    Thanks for your response. Some time the operator will set the wrong "save as setting" in the eps file . So i need to check wheather the operator set the correct save as setting or not. If the operator set the wrong save as setting,  i need to inform while running the script. So please advice me how to find out the save as setting information of the active document file, and then inform to the operator if any improper "save as setting" occured.
