liveoak Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I have a jillion bookmarks on mozilla, and I don't want to go through and delete them one by one. How can I select and delete a group of them at once? same question for bookmarks on mozilla toolbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tryp Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 If you do bookmarks -> organize bookmarks, and then get the group you want to delete up onto the screen, you can select one, hold down shift and then use the down arrow key to select the whole group and then right click and hit delete. Don't know if that helps any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liveoak Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 hey, tryp, I'm doing what you said, but as I arrow down, it just goes from highlighting one to another, rather than adding to the group. oh, and I don't really have my bookmarks "grouped," whatever that means. I just have a zillion unorganized bookmarks trailing from here to the moon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tryp Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Are you holding down shift while you use the arrow key? You should be able to do at least contiguous groups with that. Other than that, I'm barely one step above luddite myself, so WTFK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy10 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I have just discovered a useful feature! CTRL + A. Try it on the main 'organise bookmarks' menu by highlighting one bookmark in the main window on the right and then clicking CTRL + A. It should highlight them all. Hope that helps.

liveoak Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 hey, tryp, I'm a dumbass. I just did it, and it worked. I deleted like 95% of my bookmarks. I didn't have the patience to even read each one. ahhhh. what a relief. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
