How do I delete a bookmark that does not go away by the normal way

I am trying to delete some bookmarks Equine Now that I made when shopping for a horse. All I get is "This ad has been deleted"and the bookmark will not delete from my unsorted list of bookmarks.

Did you try to remove all copies by opening the bookmark is a tab and clicking the yellow star on the location bar?
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • How do you delete a picture that does not have the trash can icon to do so.

    I Am trying to delete a picture and it does not have the trash can icon. 

    You have to sync it off of the device using iTunes. That is likely how it got there in the first place.

  • How do I delete a User that does not appear in Users & Groups?

    A leftover user (former employee account) that won't go away. Phantom User account becomes the default login account regardless of the new employee's login attempts. The phantom account Home folder appears in the Users folder at the root level, but not in the Users & Groups panel in System Preferences. I have logged in as tech admin and deleted the phantom User folder (while it is not the Home folder), but it comes right back again as soon as the new employee logs in as himself. ***???
    I'd just updated this iMac to Yosemite, but this issue predates any specific OS update. Has persisted from 10.5 - 10.10. but is becoming an issue with permissions.
    Any thoughts other than having to reinstall the OS from scratch? I was about to, but thought I'd see if anyone else has ever heard of this.....

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/Directory Utility.app
    Right-click or control-click the selected text and select
              Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu.* The Directory Utility application will launch.
    In the application window, click the lock icon and authenticate. Select the Directory Editor tool in the toolbar. Select Users from the Viewing menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Locate the user you want to delete in the list and click the minus-sign icon at the bottom. Select Groups from the Viewing menu, and look for a group in the list with the same name as the user you just deleted. If found, delete. Quit Directory Utility.
    Be very careful when editing the directory. Many hidden users and groups are present by default, and are needed for the normal operation of OS X. Never delete or modify a directory entry unless you’re sure you know what you’re doing. If in doubt, leave it alone.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select

  • I have an app that does not show up on the left under iTunes.  How do I delete it?

    I have an app that does not show up on the left under iTunes.  How do I delete it from my Iphone 5?

    If the icon exists on your screen, just do a long press on that icon and when the small X appears on top of the app, press it and it will delete it.  As long as this is not an Apple app, since those cannot be deleted.

    how do i fix my iphone that does not do anythig

    With the very limited information you have given, I would try a reset - hold the power button and the home button until you see the apple logo then release. Or, restore as a new device in iTunes. What does and does not your phone do?

  • How can I create a template that does not have automatic formatting but my own?

    I have just switch to a Mac from a PC and am having a terrible time with pages.  All I want to do is create my own template that has NO AUTOMATIC FORMATTING so I can do my own.
    There is nothing in the HELP sections on how to delete the automatic formatting.  I do not want to use any of their Outline Templates just make up my own.
    I would be so so grateful if someone could help me with this.  I took a one-on-one and his idea of how to get rid of formatting in my own template DID NOT WORK!
    Thanks, Deborah

    Deborah
    Hard to see your problem, and if there is something THAT DOES NOT WORK! it would obviously be useful to know WHAT that is and WHY you believe it does not work, so we can ACTUALLY RECOMMEND A SOLUTION.
    Just select any text and change it to whatever you want using the toolbar and/or the Text inspector.
    The Outlines are just a view of your text, in a form that lets you easily organise and move it around.
    Menu > View > Show Styles Drawer
    Reveals whatever style has been applied to a heading or text and you can update or create new styles by clicking on the small triangle next to it > Redefine style from selection
    When you are finished just save it as a Template.

  • How can I delete an app that is not on my desktop, thanks.

    My account has been hacked and an app purchased, I now wish to delete this but it does not show on my desktop. Any help appreciated.

    You can't delete it up unless you can find it.
    Are all of your screens full? If they are, the only way to see additional apps would be to find them in the Spotlight Search. Swipe down from the middle of the home screen to reveal the search bar at the top. Type in the name of the app. It will show you what it folder it is in next to the app name.
    If you really believe that your account was hacked, I hope that you plan on contacting Apple/iTunes Support, remove your credit card and do whatever is necessary to protect your personal information.

  • How to create an OAF page that does not need login to access

    We have a lot of Oracle users, and everyday there are some users forget there username or password and need reset. I really want to use a web page to let them reset their passwords automatically. The web page will call the API to reset password if it found the user request is legible.
    So based on the situation, the users should not need a login to get to this page, can I do this using OAF?
    And idea is welcome, thank you for your help!

    Srini,
    Thank you for your response, I think we need to go back to my original question, is it possible to create an OAF page that does not need login, how can I do that.
    I think I said too much and led us to go to a different direction I did't want to. But I am still glad to texplain why I need a custom password reset process, that is all about business requirement, here it is:
    ----I am not sure that "company issues" (such as what you described) can be solved by software -
    I already have a solution for that. Create a custom OAF page, ask user to input his SSN / Date of Birth.... then I can figure out what his real username easily. And I can reset his password as his SSN or something which only this particular user knows. Then he can login.
    ----you may have to impart training to end users.
    As I mentioned, most of our users use only Benefit self service. They only login several times a year, even they are trained this year, most of them will forget next year, this is just human nature. And because the nature of our business, thousands of employees may change at the end of a year. It does not make any business sense for company to prepare trainers every year.
    ----In any case, the functionality you require is already built into the product.
    I guess the reason most companies hire Oracle Developers is that some functionality Oracle Applications provide is not exactly the companies needed. When there is Oracle Apps product, there is alway customization.

  • How do I uninstall Firefox version that does not run on my Droid Eris?

    I installed Firefox mobile on my HTC Droid Eris and then realized it does not work on this phone. How do I uninstall this when it does not even show up in my application downloads where I usually uninstall other apps?

    Firefox should normally show up in the "Downloads" section of the Applications settings, like other apps. If it's not there, then there must have been a problem during installation. If it appears that Firefox is installed but is not listed in the settings, the only way I know to fix it is to do a "Factory reset" of all data on the phone. Sorry!

    I Finally resolved my problem after much research. On my I pad 4 with retina in the field under settings there is a list to choose from-- ex.

  • How to fix an iPod touch that does not charge but gets hot in the lower back area?

    I have a 3rd generation iPod touch 32gb and it will not turn off, nor will it charge. Plugging in to my computer, iTunes does not even detected. Even if I leave it to charge, it does not detect it. The odd thing is that it get really hot in the lower back area of the iPod. It is hot to the touch, as though it were 80 degrees+. Anyway for me to fix this?
    The iPod is way out of warrenty, so I wonder if a Genius bar appointment will even help me. But I will give them a try.

    Replace the battery.  If that does not work, then system board is toasted...

    I thank you guys in advance for any help I can get I love making sure I have no trash or malware on my computer that i just paid 3k for

    I'm afraid that my way and Tom's way of perceiving your question are quite different. It would be confusing to have two people dragging you into different realms of troubleshooting, so I will leave this question for you and Tom to work out. To many cooks spoil the broth.
    Below is my treatise on trying to fix slow computers:
    Things You Can Do To Resolve Slow Downs
    If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
    Start with visits to:     OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney;
                                      The X Lab: The X-FAQs;
                                      The Safe Mac » Mac Performance Guide;
                                      The Safe Mac » The myth of the dirty Mac;
                                      Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
    Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    Repair the Hard Drive - Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilites Menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD disk icon and click on the arrow button below.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
    For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior;  DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
    Note: Alsoft ships DW on a bootable DVD that will startup Macs running Snow Leopard or earlier. It cannot start Macs that came with Lion or later pre-installed, however, DW will work on those models.
    Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.  Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger.  These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or later and should not be installed.
    OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive.
    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
    See these Apple articles:
              Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
              OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              About file quarantine in OS X
    If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using VirusBarrier Express 1.1.6 or Dr.Web Light both from the App Store. They're both free, and since they're from the App Store, they won't destabilize the system. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.)
    Troubleshooting Applications
    I recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX, Mavericks Cache Cleaner, or Cocktail that you can use for removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc. Corrupted cache, log, or temporary files can cause application or OS X crashes as well as kernel panics.
    If you have Snow Leopard or Leopard, then for similar repairs install the freeware utility Applejack.  If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line.  Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. Applejack does not work with Lion and later.
    Basic Backup
    For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
    1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
    2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
        used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
        requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
        drive being backed up.
    Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
      1. Carbon Copy Cloner
      2. Get Backup
      3. Deja Vu
      4. SuperDuper!
      5. Synk Pro
      6. Tri-Backup
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore.  Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
    Referenced software can be found at MacUpdate.
    Additional Hints
    Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
    Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
    Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
    Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
    Pre-Mavericks
    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
    Mavericks and later
    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the View menu.  Click on the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
    Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file.
