Recent Contacts in WinPhone: how to clear out ?

Hi all, I was not able to find the answer in the forum, so I post my question here.
I'm using Lumia 900 since few days.
I'm disappointed with WP because of the missing of some absolutely basic functions, and now I found another issue.
After few days, the page logging the recent called contacts is full of stuff that barely I don't want to see there.
But !! SURPRISE there is no option to clean it, neither in Contacts setting, not locally, where pressing the tile you got the only options of edit the Contact file or add the tile to the main page.
Can you imagine ? I want to delete the log and I get the option to duplicate it in the opening page of the phone. Amazing idea
Seriously, is there any simple way to do that, possibly without connecting and sending data to the cloud ?
Or I have to reset to 0 the full phone to clean the garbage, recovering then the contact list from an old good Symbian phone where these operations are plain and painless ?
Thanks to your suggestions.

There doesn't seem to be any way to remove (empty) the list  .. It shows the last 8 (on Lumia 920) .. so if you do not want any particular entry to be seen you need to add some that you don't mind being seen

  • How to clear out Launchpad in Mavericks?

    Does anyone know how to clear out and remove all the app icons from Launchpad in Mavericks?
    Used to be able to use this code in terminal to clear it out:
    sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Dock/*.db "DELETE from apps; DELETE from groups WHERE title<>''; DELETE from items WHERE rowid>2;"; killall Dock
    But it doesn't work anymore in Mavericks. Any ideas?
    I don't want to actually delete anything, just remove all the icons from Launchpad because I never use Launchpad and it's annoying.
    Thanks

    hipdeejay wrote:
    I've done that. But you press the Launchpad key and all the icons pop up.
    So you simply want a blank sceen to pop up?
    Don't press the Launchpad key.
    Or turn the Launchpad key off.

    Select Launchpad & Dock and uncheck Launchpad.

  • How to clear out foreign divested entities at Parent Currency when have CFCTA?

    We have stopped loading some entities which we divested in the prior fiscal year (2013).  Now, in the current fiscal year (2014), the Retained Earning rollforward logic is carrying forward the prior year P12 ending balance.  We can manually adjust out the figures in Enitity Currency in P1 of current year (July 2014) and clear out the ending RE balance, but we still have RE remaining at Parent Currency due to roll forward logic.  Our journals in HFM always reverse in the next period, so it seems that we will need to forever more book an adjustment in Parent Curr Adjs to clear out the RE and the Cumulative Foreign Currency Translation amount.  Has anyone had a similar issue?  How did you remove all Retained Earnings at the Parent Currency levels when you got rid of a company? Thank you.

    Just about every application I've seen has always had some form of rule allowing for historical translation overrides for the equity section.  Some do it by allowing you to adjust the rate the equity is translated at, others do it by allowing you to enter the PC amount you want in EC in a seperate account (Dollar Overrides seems to be a common term) but either way, you'll need that functionality to accomplish this.
    Basically your rules are causing the problem(prior year USD copying across to current year USD), so your rules will need to be the solution.

  • How to clear out old WWV_FLOW_FILES

    I'm updating an application that does a file upload into wwv_flow_files and then puts the data into a collection which is maintained thru a series of forms.
    The application has DELETE_ALL_COLLECTIONS to handle the clearing out of the collection and our Purge Sessions is set at a day.
    The problem I see is the application doesn't have a delete for the on the WWV_Flow_Files table for the data loaded.
    How can I delete the old data, or do I have to now delete the data from WWV_FLOW_FILE_OBJECTS$ for the ID's I know should be deleted?
    Does the Admintrator tool have a purge on WWV_Flow_Files like the Purge Sessions?
    Thanks

  • How to clear out failed Execution Plans?

    Hi everyone,
    This should be an easy thing but I can't seem to figure out how to do it.
    I created a custom execution plan and added every Financial Subject Area into the plan. Then I generated the parameters, clicked build and then ran it. The run failed.
    I noticed that there was a pre-configured execution plan with "Financials_Oracle R12" and decided that what I really wanted to run was Financials_Oracle R12 and not my custom plan. So I clicked build for Financials_Oracle R12 execution plan and once that finished, I clicked "Run Now". Upon clicking run now it told me that my custom execution plan had finished with a failed status and until it completed successfully, no other plans could be ran. I really don't want my custom plan to complete successfully. I want to run the other plan instead.
    How do I delete/clear out my failed run data so I can start a new execution plan?
    Thanks for the help!
    -Joe

    In DAC under the EXECUTE window do the following:
    - Navigate to the 'Current Run' tab.
    - Highlight the failed execution plan.
    - Right click and seleted 'Mark as completed.'
    - Enter the numbers/text in the box.
    Then:
    - In the top toolbar select Tools --> ETL Management --> Reset Data Sources
    - Enter the numbers/text in the boox.
    Now you're ready to start the new execution plan.
    Hope this helps.

  • Trying to figure out how to clear out the spool area for my HP printer on my 2009 IMac?

    HP advised that I should clear out the spool area for my printer.  How do I do this?

    Hi patricia m.
    I'm sorry to hear that you are encountering difficulties in clearing the spool area for your printer. It is rather "windows-centric" language as Mike indicated.  I believe that HP Support would have been referring to resetting your printing system and I have included a document on how to do that.
    If you find after resetting your printing system that issue hasn't been corrected, please post some additional information and I would enjoy helping you resolve things.  I would need to know what model/product number of HP Printer you have, the version of Mac you are running, how the printer is connected (wireless, USB) and the issue you have encountered.

  • How to clear out personal info a preform a recovery

    I just bought a new HP laptop but want to clear out personal info and do a recovery to original settings.  I do not have restore disks and don't want to wait to order some nor pay for them.  My computer is a  HP Pavillion dv681 with vista operating system

    You will need five DVDs. Do not use no-name generic DVDs!  I use Verbatim DVD+R disks and have never had issues making a working recovery disk set. Creating recovery media requires the use of the power adapter. It must not be done while on battery power alone.
     List of DVD bland media rated by quality.
    While booted into Windows click on the start orb and select HP. You should see HP Recovery Manager and HP Recovery media creation. Now select the HP Recovery media creation. Click on it and follow the prompts. This may take  about an hour to complete with DVDs. 
    Newer notebooks allow the use of USB flash drives ( also known as thumbdrives) for recovery media. Your notebook requires a 16 GB thumbdrive to do this. This method is superior to use of DVD disks for a couple of reasons.  USB thumbdrives are far more durable and allow for incredibly fast recovery times. A USB flashdisk recovery thumbdrive will last five years or more depending on the quality of the thumbdrive. Buy a high quality one such as Sandisk, Corsair or OCZ. USB 2.0 is the standard. 
    Using the downloadable UBS recoveryflash disk creation utility.
    Best regards,

  • How to clear out all contacts

    My iPod has accumulated lots of entrees that have been auto-created by flaws in the iMac address book. The iMac Address Book has since been cleaned out.  Now I need to trash all entrees in the iPad so I can sync it to the good iMac Address book.  is there a way?

    iTunes 10.2.2 Info shows one button 'All contacts'. Others to sync Yahoo or Google. Nothing labeled 'replace'.
    Scroll down to the bottom.
    The iMac Address Book has since been cleaned out.
    Is your computer set to sync contacts with MobileMe? It should be.
    If so the contacts should have been changed on the iPad when you changed them on the computer.
    With MobileMe, changes on any device sync'd to MobileMe, will change the data on all other devices sync'd to MobileMe.
    Make sure your computer is set to sync contacts to MobileMe.

    In my phone section:

  • How to clear out all passwords in key chain

    HAVING TROUBLE WITH POP UP BOX IN AOL EMAIL CONSTANTLY ASKING FOR MY PASSWORD..HOW DO I CLEAR

    That pop-up occurs whenever you cannot immediately get a good connections to the Mail Server. If it is down, or is slow, or the connection is not so good today. Your Mac cannot see the fine distinction, it just asks for the one thing it knows -- no answer from the Server -- maybe the password is wrong.
    Your best bet when that happens is to hit cancel -- and take that account Online again later. At some point make sure the
    Mail > preferences > accounts ...
    ... for that account has the right passwords in it.

  • How do I clear out cookies?

    Just wondering How I clear out cookies. My computer seems to be running slightly slower and I've never learned how to do this on my MacBook Air.
    THANKS FOR ANY INFO!

    Hi mindy235,
    If you're using Safari:  click on Safari to the left of the Apple on top menu bar, then "Preferences", then "Privacy" icon.  "Cookies and other website data:" is the first option.  You have two options:  You can click on "Details" tab which will expand and list websites that "have stored data that can be used to track your browsing.  Removing the data may reduce tracking, but may also log you out of websites or change website behavior."  Your options are highlighting specific websites and pressing the "Remove" tab or pressing "Remove All" tab following by "Remove Now" appearing.  Press this tab until all the sites have been removed.  Then press "Done".  I routinely follow this process, daily.

  • Clearing out Safari

    A friend is giving their laptop to another friend, they asked me how to clear out Safari.
    I mentioned emptying the cache, clearing the history, and removing all cookies.
    Is there anything else that needs to be cleared out so the new user feels they got a new product?

    Hi
    Move the Safari folder in the User Account>Library to the trash.
    Also, in the same library, go to the Cookies folder. Move the cookies.plist to the trash.
    Same Library>Caches>Metadata - Move any folders inside to the trash.
    Same Library>Preferences: Move any com.apple.xxxxx.plist files having Safari in their name to the trash.
    Same Library>PubSub folder. Move the any folders inside that folder to the trash.
    Empty the trash.

  • Clear out Change Notification Registrations

    Hi,
    We are using change notification in a couple of places in our application. I forgot to add the registration removal to the deconstructors, and the database reached the maximum number of allowed registrations.
    I've fixed the code, but I want to clear out the old registrations in the database. I thought I found the correct procedure to call, but it isn't working.
    Anyone know how to clear out old registrations?
