Unable to Clear Recent Address Searches in Maps Application
How do I clear or delete recent address searches in the Maps application on a Blackberry 9850? When I select Maps, Get Directions, Select End Location, Find a Location, my recent address searches are displayed under Recent Searches. How do I delete them?

Clearing the Address Search Bar
How do I clear the Address Search Bar history?
Resetting Safari doesn't do anything to reset the Address Search.
The Reset is not designed to clear the URL prompts. As I mentioned, these prompts are fed from a number of sources. Short of eliminating your bookmarks, history etc. the prompts are here to stay. Clearing your history and cache ought to eliminate those prompts not associated with existing bookmarks, but that's only temporary. Also, there may be other sources feeding the prompts.
Space bar is by far the easiest (although not very convenient) way to avoid seeing the prompts. -

HT5429 how do I clear previously saved address searches in maps
I want to clean up my Maps app and cant seem to figure out how to clear previously saved addresses. I hit clear but they are still there.
Thanks for your reply!
Yes! I already turn off the autofill. But the list still come out when I typing in the search bar.

Hi Kenny,
Re: Turning off autofill in the
address field...
The alternative to that is to clear your history and
clean up your bookmarks to remove any entries that
you no longer use (Safari uses both to check for url
autofill items). -
? How to clear Recent Directions from Google maps
Does anyone know? I can't and I have like a hundred. I have disabled websearch so that can't be the cause. I also have uninstalled and reinstalled the app...no difference.
Are you signed in? If so, try going to Settings > Map History within Google Maps (assuming you're using version 2, which was released yesterday) and editing there.
You get to Settings by tapping the three horizontal bars in the lower left corner of the Google Maps display. -
Lost "clear recent searches" with 4.0.3
The "clear recent searches" option in the drop-down Google search box menu is gone since I updated to 4.0.3. What gives? I use this all the time.

The utility application Onyx has an option to clear recent browser searches. Under the Cleaning header, at least it is for the Tiger version. I don't have Leopard otherwise I'd check the Leopard-compatible version myself to see if the option is the same. It's worth a try, until the much-needed function is back where it belongs.
(Sigh. I still miss top-tabs, and Onyx can't help me with that. I think they are ingenious, and should at least be an option for people who want them. In case anyone from the Safari team is reading this- pretty please, bring back top-tabs.) -
Why can't I clear recent history in FF 4.0
Since downloading FF 4.0 I have been unable to clear recent history. The dialog box opens, I select time frame and click "OK". The box "hangs". After a period of time I click the "X" / Close button and FF closes et. al. Doesn't matter the time frame selected. I even tried it in "Safe Mode"...no difference.
OS = WinXP Pro SP3It is possible that the file <i>cookies.sqlite</i> that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> and <b>cookies.txt</b>, if they exist, in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

my son has used my computer to visit porn websites and I want to delete the Form and Search history so the drop down with these sites is eliminated. The instructions said to go to History > clear recent history and then chose Form and Search history, but it won't allow me to choose this (it's greyed out). How do I do this?
I found this link for a similar problem someone had with a Lotus Notes account. I used it to resolve my issue with a different email account (basically followed the same steps, and then looked for the particular account I needed to delete)... hope it helps!

Unable to clear Google search history in Safari
I am unable to clear old searches in Safari. None of the following has any effect: using the clear recent searches button, totally resetting Safari, deleting all history and cache and trying to delete each individual search item manually, or by changing default search method. These are old items, not recent searches, but they continue to show up in the recent search area. It appears to be a bug. Any ideas how to REALLY clear out the search cache?
THANKSSeem to have finally fixed it by deleting the safari plist entry.

I am unable to clear Bing search history. Bing says this is an issue with Firefox.
I recently found that I was able to clear my Bing.com search history with the exception of five searches all done on one day. Attempts to clear give this message "We can't clear your search history right now. Please try again later." Nor am I able to clear the searches individually.
Bing customer service suggested it was related to Firefox. I uninstalled Firefox and opened the site with another Browser. No change.
Any suggestions as to how to deal with this problem.So both browsers you tried give the identical error message that Bing is unable to clear the history right now? It does sound like a Bing problem in that case.
Note: I assume this is history on the Bing website, and not Firefox's search bar or a Bing toolbar. -

Can someone please help me figure out how to "clear" recent email addresses used in Mail?
Can someone please help me figure out how to “clear” recent email addresses used in Mail? For example, as I begin typing a name/email address in the “To:” field, Mail begins suggesting addresses that I’ve previously used. I don’t want any suggestions unless they are in my contacts.
Another example: When using MS Outlook, it will also remember and suggest email accounts previously used, but I can arrow down and delete an account from the list so it won’t automatically popup or suggest in the future.
I appreciate any guidance in this matter.The iOS email app stores all email recipients in a list of previous recipients which cannot be turned off. The email address autofill feature when addressing an email pulls from contacts and from the list of previous recipients which can't be prevented. There is no option to clear the list of previous recipients - not at the present time anyway.
If you don't want any suggestions, select from contacts instead when addressing an email. -
The 'Clear History' button in my 'Google' search box has stopped working. it does not clear the searches. I have to go to Tools - 'Clear recent history' in the toolbar to clear the 'Google' searches. Why is this?How to fix it please. James McGunn
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Clear recent search history in google search bar
Would someone know how to clear the recent search history in the Google search bar? There is no option for clearing the recent search, I think that was eliminated. I cleared the cache, in Safari, but that doesn't clear the google search bar. Is there an option? TIA.
Hi, sorry, can't seem to figure out how to post a question
Hi fcckmd, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Yeah, it can be confusing as to where to find the Post New Topic button on this forum.
The reason it's hard to find that Post New Topic link, is because if there are any categories at the top, you must choose one first, like...
