Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Hello,
So when I right click quicktime in the dock it shows all of my recent history. I go to file>Open recent> clear recent and it disappears from the menu history, however it doesn't clear the dock history. I've opened and closed it and tried it over and over. The dock history will not clear. Any recommendations?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.2)
I had this issue in Sierra (you can clear the Dock menu manually with the Terminal command 'killall Dock') but it appears to have been resolved in High Sierra.
Now when you click on File->Open Recent->Clear Menu in Quicktime, recent files are also cleared from the Quicktime Dock contextual menu (accessed by right clicking or control-clicking on the Quicktime Dock icon).
Here's how i did it
This step clears all history, so you may want to select just quicktime.
Cheers
Nate
I've tried Natajames operations.
After clearing menu history, I closed Quicktime and re-opened.
Menu was still there !
So I restarted the computer.
Menu was finally cleared.
Cheers!
