I asked before how to deleter previous searches and was told to go to the pencil icon and click on clear.?

Question

What pencil icon????

Answer 1

If not the pencil icon then click on the little avatar head next to the green bookmark cross.

Answer 2

For Internet Explorer:Click on Tools. Then Internet Options. Click on Content and then Auto Complete. Then click on Clear Forms. This will erase your search history. If you don't want things showing up again in your search history then deselect the Auto Complete options at the top. Be sure to select apply or ok at the bottom.

The pencil icon they are referring to is on the Yahoo Toolbar and that's only if you have that installed. What I told you to do above will erase the searches you have made.

Answer 3

Its the green square on mine.

Answer 4

that wont work it will only remove the items in your url search but not your dropdown menu where you search for items. do this.



I assume your talking about the search box (drop down menu). when you type in a letter all the past searches are showing. If this is a correct assumption all you need to do is click on the empty search box to allow it to open and place your arrow over the first item (do not click it). it should highlight it'self now just hit the delete button on your keyboard and it will be gone and the next item should come up highlighted keep hitting the delete on your keyboard and the items will vanish. hope this has helped. and by the way it will work will all drop down menus.

Answer 5

by the search box at the top of the page. or go to history and juss right click to delete.
