• How can I clear recent items from numbers in the Dock?

  When you go to numbers in dock and right click on it, it shows recent items for faster access, it does not only show recent Articles he is showing the older elements and is not updated to display recent items.  Does anyone know how to add an item to this list or remove an item from this list?  I have tried everything I can think of nothing doesn't.

  Try this:

  Numbers open, go: (menu) file > open recent > clear menu (at the bottom of the list).

  Numbers of quit smoking.

  On the dock, right click the icon of numbers and select delete in the Dock

  OR click the numbers and the slide out of the Dock, and then release the mouse button.

  Boost numbers from the dashboard, recent items in the Apple menu or by double-clicking its icon in your Applications folder.

  Right-click on numbers icon in the Dock, and then choose continue on the dock.

  Optional: Drag the icon to a different location on the dock if you wish.

• How to set recent items in system preferences and have it stay with my setting

  Noticed that to happen just in the last few weeks.

  Use Pages and try to use Open > recent and all I was getting was clear Menu.

  Went into System Preferences > general and recent items is set to None.  I changed it to what should be the default value of 10, but he keeps changing to None.

  For the life of me, I can't understand how to do so that he can stay 10 or any other parameter as it keeps going back to zero.

  Appreciate the help of CIHI people!  Computer info below.

  

  Please, back up all data before proceeding.

  This procedure will unlock all your user (not system files) files and reset their ownership, permissions and default access controls. If you have voluntarily set special values for these attributes on any of your files, they will be be restored. In this case, either stop there, or be ready to recreate the settings if necessary. Do that after checking these settings that did not cause the problem. If none of that is meaningful to you, you need not worry about this, but do not follow the instructions below.

  Step 1

  If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to step 2.

  Triple-click anywhere in the next line to this page to select this option:

  sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nosappnd,noschg,nosunlnk,nouappnd,nouchg {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-

  Copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination.

  Launch the Terminal application integrated in one of the following ways:

  ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

  ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

  ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

  Paste in the Terminal window by pressing Command + V. I tried these instructions only with the Safari browser. If you use another browser, you may need to press the return key after pasting.

  You will be asked your password of connection that are not displayed when you type. Type carefully, and then press return. You can get a warning to be careful. If you do not have a password, you will need to configure one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your user name "is not in the sudoers file", then you have not logged as an administrator.

  The command may take several minutes to run, depending on the number of files you have. Wait for a new line ending with a dollar sign ($) to appear, and then quit Terminal.

  Step 2 (optional)

  Take this step only if you have trouble with the phase 1, if you prefer not to consider, or if this does not resolve the problem.

  Start in recovery mode. You may be prompted to select a language, then the OS X Utilities appears.

  If you use FileVault 2, select disk utility, then select the icon for the volume FileVault startup ("Macintosh HD", unless you have given it a different name.) It will be nested under another icon of the disc. Click the Open button in the toolbar and enter your login password when you are prompted. Then quit disk utility must be returned to the main screen.

  Select

  Utilities ▹ Terminal

  in the menu bar. It will open a Terminal window. In this window, type this:

  resetp

  Press the tab key. The partial order you entered will automatically end this:

  resetpassword

  Press return. Opens a window to reset the password. You do not need to reset a password.

  Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD", unless you have given it a different name) if not already selected.

  Select your username in the menu option allows you to select the account if not already selected.

  Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the reset button.

  Select

  ▹ Restart 

• I need to set recent items...

  Hello.

  I don't remember how to change the default setting of the recent items in the menu start of alphabetical in order of date in Vista Home Premium. I did it on my office more than a year ago - I remember it was a change of register - but on my laptop, I'm stuck with useless alphabetical order.

  What frustrates me is so I got the instructions and not save them.

  I would like a refresher course.

• Recent articles: is it possible to retrieve a list of recent items passed?

  Is it possible to retrieve a list of recent past items.  I am trying to determine if a file has been accessed and then removed from the list of recent items.  If possible, how do you do that?

  The list is stored in C:\Users\\Recent and there may be different lists for each user.  There is no real way to know if an item has been removed from the list, unless it is in the trash (which is unlikely).

  To check the Ffichier, go to Windows Explorer and navigate to the file that you are concerned about. Right-click on the headers, click more and add the access Date column.  Then you can see the last time someone accessed the file.  It's just as good as the list of recent files to find out when a person access to a file (and it cannot be deleted without deleting the file).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• How to enable recent items on jump list

  Not sure if it of a problem or not. I would like a list of recent items on my list of jump (in fact, only for MS Word) in the task bar. I only have pinned files, but would like to be able to place a file in the list of recent files and PIN which as well. My problem is that I do not see the recent files on any list to jump from a program in the task bar. I went into the properties of taskbar (start menu/customize) and tried to click on the number of recent files, but it is zero and is grayed out so I can't change it. What should I do? Or is it a problem that requires a repair?

  I've seen a few discussions about this in this forum - I don't know if this is a problem, or if there is somewhere a seting I forgot to check.

  Right-click on the Start button, and then select Properties. Click on Start menu tab and check the box in front of the store and display recently items in the start menu and the taskbar.

• Recent items no longer appear in expose / Mission Control / Application Windows cover flow

  Until very recently, when I accessed the service "Windows Application" through the presentation, the bottom of the window of Mission control would reveal a row of recent items from the app in use.

  Now it always shows recent items, but this list does not update accurately. The ' file > open recent item ' menu is exact, but recent Articles in the statement do not match this list and are not updated with the most recent articles.

  I found a few posts on this topic of 2012, but they are a little dated, and none of them received very clear answers.

  I use El Capitan on a 2.6 GHz MacBook Pro.

  Can anyone help with this?

  I tried to reset the permissions and reindexing of these records. This doesn't seem to work.

  Leave everything, stop, start in Safe Mode, log on and check how things work, then restart normally.  The safe boot through Mode erases caches and (temporarily) disables modules, and which erases sometimes bizarre behavior.

• Preferences of recent items returned to zero, without saving the changes

  I noticed yesterday for some reason, the drop-down list of recent items in applications such as TextEdit and Pages no longer displays anything. I went into System Preferences and chose 10 recent Articles, but it did not save my changes. That is, after I closed and reopened the system preferences, he once more had no selected for the recent items box.

  No idea how I can restore recent?

  Skip this question actually, I found a work around.  Mods are free to remove.

• Recent items in Vista does not update correctly

  I have a problem that the recent items on the Start Menu is not updated correctly.  There are a few documents out there, but there are many who don't are not who should be.  If I right click on the recent items and choose explore I can see a lot more files in the C:\Users\Pete\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent folder.

  For example, there are few. XLS and. DOC files that I opened recently but don't are not.  However when I explore the folder I can see a shortcut to the directory that contains the missing files.

  I tried many combinations of physically erase the folder, by activating / disabling the option elements recent etc, but nothing helped.

  Thanks in advance

  I had the same problem. I fixed it by deleting all entries, except the default entry, in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RecentDocs in the registry. There are a bunch of other entries which are numbered for each of the files in the list of recent items. and the entrance to MRUListEx. Delete it all. Unfortunately, there is no file name but only entered, HEX numbers and letters. After doing this, Windows has started listing the files in recent Articles that were not show up there before.

  I found that the problem has followed a couple of files that were present in recent Articles when I cleared the list a few weeks earlier. After these files are not present in recent items, but rather the shortcut to the folder appears. Also, I've found that the problem was with the actual files, not the folder. I opened the 2 files, Excel, and a Word document and choose Save under and added a 2 to name the document, save an exact copy of the documents. Each copy has appeared in recent and open items without any problems. Copies of rename the original name and overwrite the originals, reduced the problem. I searched the registry files to see if there's information about save them in a special place, but nothing found. They were only listed in the MRUlists for each of their applications, showing other open documents recently Excel and Word.

  Since I had made changes to the documents and saved the changes in copies that end in 2, I chose save as once again and replaced the original files with updated copies. Now my original files, with the update of information, see and open from the list of recent items.

• Recent items folder does not display the files saved in the Office 2010

  I have a question where the record of recent items (Start/Recent Items) shows not all files that are created in Office 2010 or converted in this format. All other files (for example, .xls, .doc, .pdf) are displayed, but it's not Office 2010 files.

  If I open Excel 2010 or Word 2010 and go to file/Recent then files are all listed here as recent files, but do not show up in the start/Recent Items menu.

  I use Vista Home Premium with Office 2010, but also have this problem with my PC which is running Windows 7. However, it is less a question here as I have Word and Excel pinned to the taskbar and you can access these files from there.

  It drives me crazy because I have to go through a number of additional steps to open files that are routinely used and wonder if it's a 'function' or a bug.

  I posted this question in the forum Office 2010 too and it advises to ask here as well. My reason for posting, it is originally that I am convinced that this is a problem with Office 2010. Files created in Office 2010 and saved in the Excel/Word 2003 (.doc and .xls) format very well, appear as files created under .docxand .xlsx that have been converted to the format Office 2003. It occurs only with files with extensions Office 2010.

  I tried to dlete everything in the folder and run the "shell: recent ' command, but the opinion is to do this after DELETING the folder recent elements which is something the system won't let me do - there is no option to delete the record.

  Any help much appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Thanks for the clarification, but once again, I think you're wrong understanding of the issue. The point is that it does not appear in the list of recent items... otherwise I him have not posted the question.

  I appreciate that we're trying to be helpful, but it is actually more an obstacle if you have not read and understood the issue of opening. Sorry to be blunt, but the fundamental issue has not received by people either in this topic or the forum of the Office.

  However, I am pleased to announce that the elements are now show - do not know what he did, but I think it's the no-check/recheck option proposed by Nithyananda J, BUT ONLY AFTER a REBOOT.

  However, I also tried various other things on mine so can't be sure which of them solved the problem.
