Q: Reading List won't let me delete

I updated to the latest version of Safari (10.0) and MacOS (10.12) this week and I just went to delete an item from my reading list and the little X in the corner to delete has disappeared. How do I delete articles?

iMac (20-inch Early 2008), Mac OS X (10.7.2)

    Right click on the Reading List item you want it to be removed and choose "Remove Item".

     

    The "X" button is no more available.

    So I just have to figure out how to right click on the old Apple Mouse (yes, I still have that old technology). I also have a Magic Mouse 2 but I was recharging the batteries.

     

    Bring back the "X"

     

    Thanks.

    Use control - click for right click.

     

    Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.

     

    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem or a suggestion for change. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem/suggested change solved sooner.
