How to remove the cloud copy of bookmarks and start over

I inadvertently synced bookmarks from a computer that I had wanted to keep separate. How do I either remove the unwanted material from the syncing copy in the cloud or just remove that cloud copy and start over?
Thank you

If this is something that has occurred recently it should be easy to sort out just unlink the device and revert to the previous version of bookmarks by using the restore option in the bookmarks library. With luck all you will loose is the last set of bookmarks added.

* Sync only merges bookmarks now, it will not permit unidirectional syncing. For instance you cannot sync from a phone and just add those bookmarks to a computer, Sync will fill the phone with the desktop's bookmarks.
*It is wise to backup bookmarks manually if bookmarks are being synced.
My recommendation of caution and backing up of bookmarks is not aimed at those who inadvertently add a device. It is aimed at those who become over reliant on Sync.
Occasionally; especially on slow connections or if there are many bookmarks changes; Sync throws a wobbly and corrupts or duplicates bookmarks. Without manual backups, these situations become almost impossible to sort out, by the time they are reported.

  • Is there a way to delete everything on the cloud all at once and start over?

    We tried to store a lot of photos to the cloud in one copy. The files have been syncing for over 24 hours. We tried to stop the sync and just throw everything away, and they still show up in the archive. Is there a way to delete everything on the cloud all at once and start over?

    Dulls for information on how to permanently delete your files please see Creative Cloud Help | Manage and Sync files.

  • Please tell me how to remove ALL of my old iTunes and start over??

    I can't log in to my old iTunes account.
    I've tried everything, and it still says wrong password/apple id and birthday.
    I called apple support, and they couldn't help me either.
    So can you please just tell how to just remove my old iTunes (including my library and log in info) from my computer?
    So I can just start a new account.
    I don't care if I lose my songs, because i don't listen to alot of them that's on there anymore anyway,
    but i can't add anymore, because of course it won't let me log in.
    I've tried uninstalling iTunes through my control panel on my laptop, and reinstalling iTunes.
    This didn't work, all that done was put all my songs back on there, and so of course it put my log in back on there as well.
    How do I just delete ALL of it, as if I never had an iTunes?
    So I can have a diffferent apple id and such.
    And reinstall my ''new'' iTunes, and just get songs all over again.
    Also if I do this how will my iPod touch respond?
    Will it ask '' Do you wan't to delete what's on your iPod now, and replace it?'' (with whatever will be on my new one.),
    or something like that.
    Because I hope so, that's what I wan't.
    I hope this makes sense. THANKS

    No need to delete anything. Sign out of the iTunes store. Create a new account and sign in with it. That said fixing access to your current ID is prefereable as updating apps across multiple Apple IDs is currently akward.

  • How do I delete all data on sync and start over?

    When I get my bookmarks the way I want them on my computer and delete the ones I do not want it gets messed up. I have 4 computers on my account and every time I sync it brings up old book marks. I have deleted all book marks from my computer and set up a new sync account then deleted all book marks on my other computers. Then I set up the new sync account on all the computers and still brings up Book marks. There should not be any book marks because I deleted all book marks from all computers before I set up the new account. I have done this 2 times and it they come back. How can I clear all my accounts and start over???????????

    To delete all of the data associated with your Firefox sync account:
    # Go to [https://accounts.firefox.com/settings Firefox Accounts]
    # Login using the information associated with your sync account
    # Delete your account
    # Signup for a new sync account using the [https://accounts.firefox.com/settings Firefox Accounts] website or directly from Firefox
    '''Warning:''' This cannot be undone and will result in the loss of your sync data

  • How to Remove the Cloud Association?

    I work for an enterprise that uses single licenses for Adobe Acrobat XI.  One of my customers associated her personal cloud ID with her enterprise license.  She decided that she did not want to extend her cloud account, and now, when she launches a .pdf, it prompts her to renew her subscription. 
    I have had a chat with the mostly useless people who forced me to create an account, to try to associate a license with it, but that is not what I want.  I need to completely remove the association of the cloud from the users machine, so that she can open a .pdf and have it actually open in the software that the company has paid for.
    Neither she nor I want to have it even remotely touch the cloud any more.
    I am looking for a registry key that I can delete or turn off, so that it stops associating with the cloud, so that she can use Acrobat when not connected to the internet.

  • How to remove the cloud from itunes

    I moved my itunes from one pc to another and now most of my songs are in the cloud and need to be downloaded to be used.

    I suspect that you haven't moved your library successfully and are therefore seeing the cloud links to your previous purchases after signing in to your account, like this.
    Might be time to have another go at bringing the library across. These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.
    Alternatively, if you've "restored" your libray to somewhere other than <User's Music>\iTunes then hold down shift as you start iTunes, and choose the library in its new location.

  • How can I delete all of my calendars and start over from scratch?

    I am sure this is an easy question because it seems that others before me have probably been in this situation. I wish to delete my calendars (and todo lists, etc) in iCal. In essence I want to start over from scratch as if I had not yet used iCal.
    Do you have any advice on how I can go about doing so?
    Thanks!
    Rod

    Rod,
    Select the calendar(s) you want to delete in the Calendars list on the left side of the iCal window. Then hit the delete key or select Delete from the Edit menu.

  • Removing a pirate copy of LR5 and installing CC, Win 7

    My bad, I was duped and installed a pirated copy of lightroom.  I have now purchased CC and want to remove the illegal copy of LR5 and install the legit copy of Lightroom.  Deleting  LR5 hasn't helped as it remembers the old s/n.  So far it doesn't want to remove the s/n of the illegal copy and stops me using plugins.  Any suggestions except reload my complete system

    Lightroom is a different beast. Don't think Cleaner works on it.
    Just delete the registration file in your system. You can find information about it, here: http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/perform-silent-installation-lightroom.html
    Look for Lightroom 5.0 Registration.lrreg and delete it.
    It is in a hidden folder, so be sure to follow this document, first: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hidden-files#show-hidden-files=windows-7
