How do I remove an icon that I added to the Home Screen in Safari?

I accidentally added a webpage icon to my Home Screen in Safari and cannot remove it.  On the Home Screen the icons do not act like they do on the other  pages of the iPad.  They do not jiggle nor can they be dragged to be removed.  In the process of trying to get rid of some I ended up creating duplicates.  How can I delete some of these?

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
No data will be lost.

  • How can I add an icon for a contact to the home screen?

    New to iPhone and can't find a way to add a shortcut/icon for an individual contact to the home screen. I have looked in the user's guide and searched the web but no luck other than suggestions to download some type of app. This function has been available on two different Android phones I've used the past several years. Surely the iPhone has this capability???

    That is not a standard feature on the iPhone. There are many features available on one and not the other.

  • How can i remove a name that comes up as the Home user next to the House symbol?

    For some reason when the House symbol appears in any incidence on my Mac Pro lap top although it is only me that has ever used it it shows the name Sharon next to the house which isn't mine! I can only presume it has been imported across with other stuff from my old lap top which previously belonged to a Sharon! Does any one know how to change this please? Thanks

    I bought a used iphone. I installed ios 7 before I realized that the previous owner's email and password are still in the phone. How can I remove them so that I can use the icloud and "find my phone" feature?

    Thanks so much! It will be kinda weird to contact the person directly, but I guess I will give it a try. Is there anything that I can refer her to in this discussion to let her know I am legit, and not a creeper? Also, I don't know if you can answer this or not. When I plug my phone into itunes, and it says that it is backing up, does that mean that it is going into the other person's cloud, since I cannot access it?

  • New portal preview, how to keep an altered query in a chart on the home screen?

    This one has been driving me nuts, here is the situation.... I pin a chart to the "Home" screen from the DefaulfServerFarm hosting plan for CPU, nice hero size, yeah!  I then clone it and then adjust the query to show memory
    on one of them.  Then I adjust the timeline in the queries for week on both to get an aggregate view of days, all good.  As soon as I refresh the portal...!?!?!...both charts are sitting at CPU current day, log out/in same behavior.  Probably
    something silly I'm doing/not doing, anyone have any thoughts or ideas on how to keep chart views in place?  Thanks in advance!
    Jeff

    Here is an example of what I would like to pin to the start, so that every time the preview portal is opened,  the last week's memory and cpu is viewed.  You can do this by adjusting the query on the chart, however the experience is that
    if you logout and log back into the portal you will see only the settings from the chart you copied, and not the updated queries.  Hope that makes sense.  Maybe there is a better way to accomplish this.  Thanks!

  • Mail, how can you remove an image that shows up in the header?

    I have no idea how this image got where it is, but I would like to remove it. When I open Mail, I see in the address area of the email as it displays in the message viewer, to the very right of that area, there is an image, that I have no idea how it got there or how to remove. The following is a link (I think) Mail/Users/alaska_juliens/Desktop/Picture 7.png ...... that shows what I am talking about. I have gone through my signatures and made sure that image isn't in there and it isn't. Please help, it is driving my husband nuts, we would love to change the image to his company logo if possible, but we don't know if that image even shows up when others receive email from us or not (we email ourselves and it is right there in the address header of the email). Thank you for your time and help.
    Mail/Users/alaska_juliens/Desktop/Picture 7.png

    Typically what shows up there is the address book picture for that contact. If they attach an image it will be added to the address book.
    So go to the contact in address book and change or delete the image.

  • How do i remove a document that is stuck in the Q?

    I cannot print on my 110 series printer because a document that I previosly set to print is stuck in the Q. How do I remove it from the Q?

    Hello Harveyf,
    I am unsure which printing method you are referring to. If you are trying to print from a Windows PC, I would recommend running the HP Print Diagnostic Utility, found at the link below.

  • How can I delete an icon that I inserted onto my home page by accident?

    I was playing around with it and it worked, but now I'm trying to delete it.
    Thanks

    Hold your finger on the icon for a few seconds and the icons will start to wiggle and anything you have added to the screen will show a ( x ) at the top left of the icon. Tap the X and confirm the deletion of the icon.

  • How can I remove accessibility text and voice over from the logon screen?

    Before I log on to my Mac, in the logon screen I get accessibility text and voice over features enabled all the time. I can remove them by pressing cmd + f5 several times until they're gone (while I'm still in the logon screen). I would like to remove them permanently so that they never appear in the logon screen.

    Can you provide an example? I've been trying (for
    example) "select translate(' test one', ascii(' '),
    'X') from dual" with no luck.
    Thank you.To replace space, you should query like this:
    select translate(' test one', chr(32), 'X') from dual instead of select translate(' test one', ascii(' '), 'X') from dual Thanks,

  • Is it possible to make an icon for a movie on the home screen?

    Is there a way to make a direct icon for movie instead of going into the "Videos" icon? 

    If there is a website that plays your movie, then you can go to safari, type the website in, open the page, then tap the share arrow, then tap add to home screen. Thats as close to it that you can get.

  • How do I remove a DVD that is stuck in the drive on MacBook

    I put a DVD in my drive to watch a movie and it is making a sound as if it cannot red it and my computer is not booting up.

    A stuck DVD should not prevent your Mac booting from its hard drive.
    Turn your Macbook all the way off (hold the power button down until the power light turns off). Then try the following:
    - Reboot the computer. Straight away, hold down the left button on the trackpad, or the left button on an attached USB mouse if you use one. Keep it held down and eventually, the disk should eject.
    - Reboot the computer. Hold down the Option key until you see the boot panel on the screen. Choose your HD to boot from that disk. Once booted, is the DVD shown on the desktop / in the Finder? Try ejecting it there.
    - If, once booted, you don't see the disk in the Finder, take a look at the disk slot. Can you see the middle of the DVD? Try pushing it in very gently.
    If none of those help, you should take it to an Apple Store or authorized repair center for them to remove it.
