Here it says:

You can delete single suggestions in the address bar . For Mac OS X Highlight the URL with your arrow keys and then SHIFT+FN+DELETE. At least that has worked for me .

though it apparently only works when it feels to.




ANSWER 2

Score 3


You must ensure that the item is not also in your bookmarks. Might seem obvious but yeah... if the entry is also in your bookmarks the attempt to SHIFT+FN+DELETE OR SHIFT+CONTROL+FN+DELETE will simply not work




ANSWER 3

Score 1


Simply highlighting the item in the URL and pushing shift+fn+control+delete works!

ANSWER 4

With an external non-Apple keyboard (it has a Windows key) these steps worked for me:

Highlight the URL with your arrow keys and then Shift + Delete.

I guess the Fn from the other answers is only necessary for Apple keyboards?
