I want to delete all my bookmarks/favourites with on push of a button not individually.

In the past I found a way to delete all the bookmarks at once to clean out the registry but can't remember how I did it and can't seem to find it in help. There must be an easier way rather than one by one. The deleting bookmarks section in help pages doesn't do it. I run Vista home premium
Thank you.

To reset the bookmarks to the handful of default bookmarks that come with a new installation, start Firefox in [[safe mode|Firefox safe mode]], then in the first dialog box that appears select the option "Delete all bookmarks except for backups" then click "Make Changes and Restart". All of your Firefox bookmarks will be deleted, but your browsing history will still be intact.

  • I have been looking for half an hour and I cannot find the bookmarks organizer. I want to delete ALL my bookmarks and I cannot do it. They are not in a folder so I cannot delete the folder. This interface is terrible.

    No bookmarks menu. No relevant options on the "firefox button." No relevant context menus. Where is the bookmarks organizer? Not the toolbar on the left, I cannot use that to delete hundreds of bookmarks not in a folder.

    "Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks" has been renamed to "Show All Bookmarks" in Firefox 4 and later.

  • How do I delete ALL Safari bookmarks?

    I am currently using a MacBook Pro with OSX Lion 10.7.2 and Safari 5.1.2 and would like to know how to delete ALL Safari Bookmarks.
    I have selected the various titles under Collections and selected all the bookmarks on the right and deleted these.  However, not that there is a Bookmarks section on the left just as there is a Collections section.  The bookmarks under this Bookmarks section are the one's I can't seem to delete all of without selecting each individually.  I believe these bookmarks might have been what was imported from my PC bookmarks when I converted.  However, I would like to be rid of them and there are a lot to remove.  It would be very nice if there were a less time consuming way to accomplish this task.  I've gone to find this plist file that I've seen mentioned in the support archives and I don't know if I don't understand the structure of Macs well enough but I can not find the plist to remove.
    Please help!  I don't understand many acronyms and such that responses typically include so if you have a solution for me, please be very specific.
    Thanx

    don't know if I don't understand the structure of Macs well enough but I can not find the plist to remove.
    Quit Safari.
    Click a clear space on your Desktop. You'll see Finder top left corner of the screen.
    From that menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this in exactly as you see it here:   ~/Library/Safari
    That will open a Finder window for you.
    Move the Bookmarks.plist file to the Desktop.
    Relaunch Safari.
    That should remove all the Bookmarks from Safari.
    If you want to re import those Bookmarks at some point, with Safari open, from the menu bar click File > Import Bookmarks.
    BTW... when you are searching the Finder there are two libraries. One is root the other is user.
    The    ~ (Tilde) character represents user:   ~/Library
    No tilde:  /Library     is root

  • How do I delete a prior month(s) or entire year(s) in iCal on my iMac (using version 4.0.4 (1395.7)?  Want to delete all months in 2009

    I checked what was previous asked in deleting months from iCal; however, that question pertained to removing events from a month and not necessarily deleting the entire month.  I have three years of calendars (January - December x three) in my iCal and want to delete all months for 2009 and 2010; however, I can't seem to find a way to delete.  I checked preferences/advanced under iCal but no mention of deleting previous months/years.

    Greetings Judith,
    Before making any attempts at deleting calendar data, backup what you have just in case:
    Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    iCal has an automated function located in iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed.  By typing in a value for days you can tell iCal to delete all events before that time frame.
    Example:
    Today is 4-16-2012.
    If I wanted to delete all events prior to 1 year ago (4-16-2011) I would type in "365" for the number of days.
    Once you type in the number of days you want kept in iCal, close the preferences and then quit iCal.
    Re-open iCal and check to see if the events are gone.  If not you may want to leave it open for several minutes and then quit again.
    Once the events are removed go back to  iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed and make sure the check mark is removed to prevent future deletion.
    Hope that helps.

  • Insufficient Disk Space: What do I do? I do not want to delete all of my projects. If I delete them and then empty the trash it will free up some space but I have deleted way more than I am tryig to import.

    I keep getting a message when I try to import pics. Insufficient disk space. What do I do? I do not want to delete all of my pics!

    Easiest thing to do would be to buy an external hard drive and move your Aperture library to that drive.

    You can move the music to the new Mac from the iPad - if it is purchased from iTunes.
    Read this discussion. I think you should find it helpful.

    If it was not purchased but imported from CD's look for a third party app to do this - check out TouchCopy from Wide Angle Software

    You can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    You can trash Firefox 4.0 then re-install Firefox 3.6, it will use your existing bookmarks, passwords etc
    Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

  • I have an ipod touch and i just bought a new laptop, because i lost mine. i try to sync the music in the itouch to my new laptop but it asks me if i want to delete all my music before syncing  what should i do?

    i have an ipod touch and i just bought a new laptop, because i lost mine which has all the data of my itouch. i try to sync the music in the itouch to my new laptop but it asks me if i want to delete all my music before syncing  what should i do?

    You should use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new computer.
    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.
    The ipod will sync with one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase teh content from the ipod.

  • I just got new ipad mini....I want to delete all of the music that was synced from my itunes account.  I have went through and deleted some songs one by one but some have a cloud icon with a red arrow on them.....is there a simple way just to delete them?

    I just got new ipad mini....I want to delete all of the music that was synced from my itunes account.  I have went through and deleted some songs one by one but some have a cloud icon with a red arrow on them.....is there a simple way just to delete them?

    Yes there is. Those songs are not actually on your iPad. They are in iCloud ready for download if you choose to do so. If you want to remove them go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Show All>Music>Off. You can also do this in Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off.

  • HT1386 I am re-building my iTunes library, but still have all the content on my iPod Classic.  I have just downloaded some songs from the store and want to add them to the iPod, BUT when i attempt this the message asks if I want to delete all content on t

    I am rebuilding my iTunes library, but still have all the old content on my iPod Classic.  I have just download some songs from the iStore and want to add them to the iPod, BUT when I try to sync it asks if I want to delete all content from the iPod and add only the material that I have just downloaded from the Store.  I do not want to lose my old content, because it is very extensive.

    You are trying to sync to other than the one iTunes library you can sync to. You can copy music from multiple library/computer if you use the manual method of syncing. That method is described here
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
    If you want to make this computer/iTunes library your syncing computer/library you have to restore the iPod on this computer/library. Restoring erases the iPod.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

    To copy other music to the computer see:

  • I had to do a complete system restore on my computer and now I am having issues getting all my music back. It's telling me that my account is in use with a different user but I'm the only user on my computer. When I go to sync it, it wants to delete all.

    I had to do a complete system restore on my computer and now I am having issues getting all my music back. It's telling me that my account is in use with a different user but I'm the only user on my computer. When I go to sync it, it wants to delete all my music and ringtones. What should I do? I don't want to loose all my items.

    When in recovery mode you can't backup the iPod.
    You will have to restore via iTunes. See:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • HT1535 I want to delete all of the music on my iPhone and reload from a new iTunes library on a new computer

    I acquired a new PC .  I had my iPone synched to the iTunes library on the old PC.  I now want to delete all of the music off of my iPhone and reload it with the new iTunes library that I am creating on the new PC.
    I tried seveal times using different synch options ...  all unsuccessful. 

    Hey finterra,
    Thanks for the question. With iOS 7 you can now delete your entire music library from your device. Simply navigate to Settings > General > Usage > Music then tap Edit, tap the minus symbol, then tap Delete.

  • I want to delete all transparent pixels, how can I? CS6

    I would like to delete all transparent pixels surrounding my irregularly (non-square) image.  The TRIM function only trims to a square surrounding my image and not to the edge of the image itself.  Is there a work around for this?  I have looked around and haven't found one. 
    Thanks,
    JB

    Image have rectangular area they have a width and height boundaries as do layer.  Not all of the rectangular area need to have content or be fully opaque,  However the image boundary is a rectangle.  Some file formats are like a Photoshop Background layer do not support empty area or even transparency so those file formats only contain image that are rectangles and have no transparency. Some file formats support transparency and empty areas so those images can be any shape and contain transparency still the image boundary is rectangular. Then there is the GIF file format an oddball format. It only supports 256 Colors. Pixels are mapped to one of the 256 colors selected for the image.  If you want Transparency in a gif  the number of colors is reduced by 1 to 255  the 256 color now indicate no content its not real transparency it just a no color pixel in other words off or no content.
    So if you have areas that are 100% transparent there is nothing to delete the area is empty.  If you have pixels that contain some transparency and you delete those pixels you delete details are you sure you want to delete all pixels that contain transparency? You will loose things like drop shadows

  • I want to delete all music not Syncing, iTune want to delete everything

    I want to delete all music in my iPhone to gain space as I do not use it for listening music anyway.
    My old computer was stolen and now when I plug my iPhone in itune and try syncing ZERO music it say it will erease everything.
    I fear it will remove my Apps, apps data, photo and most importantly I fear it will change the order of my icons.
    I do not have ticked anything but "Sync music" will it delete all music or EVERYTHING ?
    Someone told me I should use WinSCP to delete the file manually,
    Any help would be greatly apreciated.

    I believe MediMonkey will do that. It requires iTunes to be installed, but you don't need to open iTunes or anything.
    http://www.mediamonkey.com/information/free/
    It is free but only available for PC and not for mac.
    I used to use it when I had a PC, and I think you can just select all the iPhone music on it and delete it.
