How do I erase bookmarks from home screen

I Mistakenly created a couple of bookmark icons on my home screen And I can't get rid of them. Restrictions are off. If I try to erases them like you erase an app. I get the x in the corner. But can't erase the bookmarks or delete any apps. My screen starts flashing on and off and I have to do a hard reset to get out of this"problem" but I can't get rid of the bookmarks or erase any apps. Anyone have any thoughts? Please!

Where does one access shortcuts that are saved to the home screen? These appear to be Safari shortcuts. What am I missing here?

  • Can't delete apps or bookmarks from home screen

    When I press and hold on an app or bookmark icon on my home screen, all of the icons start to wiggle, but none of them have an x that would allow me to delete them. What should I do??

    If you can't remember setting one then have you got an Exchange email account on the iPad ? If so then you could try removing that account and see if the restrictions code is also removed.
    If not and you can't remember the restrictions code, then if it wasn't on the iPad when you last backed up then you can try restoring to that backup and it should be removed. If it was on the iPad when you last backed up then the only way to remove it is to reset the iPad back to factory defaults and you can then re-sync your content back to the iPad - you won't be able to restore to the backup as that will keep the code in place.

    Hi
    Home/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist is the file you want. Use a copy, just in case & do it with Safari quit.

    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list.  Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility 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 Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Alternatively, see:

  • Verizon iphone. how can i get to the home screen without activating it on a plan

    how can i get to the home screen without activating it on a plan

    Unless it is a 3rd party cord, there is no cord that just goes from the phone to the wall. However, you will need a cord that connects to the computer and the phone. The device is in recovery mode and you will need to restore it. See this support document for the instructions. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • How can I turn off the home screen preview of SMS/text messages on 3GS

    How can I turn off the home screen preview of SMS/text messages on my new Iphone 3GS ?

    Go to Settings>Messages and choose "No" under "Show Preview" which will hide the text part of the SMS/text message but still will pop up on who its from and just says "text message" on it.
    Other than this there is not a complete way to disable the notification.

  • Howto remove apple icons from home screen

    Hello!
    How do i remove all icons from home screen (include apples default icons), and just show the application icon for the program that should be used in our warehouse?

    The icons of the homescreen reflect the top line of those located on your main menu.
    So, you will need a different theme that has the features you desire.

    Hold down on one icon until they start shaking, then drag the icon to the edge of the screen, and the screen should slide to the next one, you can then drop it on that screen or drag it again to the edge to move to the next screen.

  • How do I export bookmarks from my ipod to my pc?

    Hi there,
    I have a new laptop (Samsung N120 notebook) and am trying to upload my bookmarks from my iPhone 3GS. I have tried using iTunes and have downloaded v.10.5.3. I have just uploaded IOS 5 onto my iPhone so I should be ready to go.
    I've signed up to iCloud but don't know how to export the bookmarks from my Safari on my iPhone.
    On iTunes under the info tab the only mention of bookmarks is 'Your bookmarks are being synced with your iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over the air settings can be changed on your iPhone' but nothing appears to have happened.
    Would appreciate any wisdom/advice people might have on the topic. Thanks!
    G

    Did you already try the bookmarks option on the iCloud control panel?

  • Iphone 4s in settings can't access Notes or Mail.  Also can't access mail from home screen. Can't send email. All else is good.

    I need help. I have reset my iphone. I have turned it off then on. Still can't launch my built in mail app from home screen. When I try it goes to blank page then right back to home screen view.
    In settings for the iphone 4s I can not access Notes or Mail, Contacts,Calendars. When I tap either of the two they highlight in blue and then go right back to Home Screen view. I seem to be able to access everything else in settings with no trouble.
    From home screen I have no trouble I can launch the built in utility Notes with no problem. I also can launch Calendars from Home Screen view. My Contacts are still reachable by tapping Phone from H/S view then clicking on contacts.
    I can not launch mail. nor can I send email. Also the built in mail app is not showing it is recieving mail either. All else seems fine.
    I can log in to my email from Safari on iphone and from my laptop with no problem.
    Anyone have any suggestions?  My iphone is out of warranty. Apples only suggestions are To pay for support.
    Thanks in advance
