How do I clear my cache (Safari)?

On Mac (Safari desktop):

  1. Open Safari.
  2. Click Safari in the top-left menu.
  3. Go to Settings (or Preferences on older versions).
  4. Click the Advanced tab.
  5. Turn on “Show Develop menu in menu bar.”
  6. Close the settings window.
  7. In the top menu bar, click Develop.
  8. Select Empty Caches.

(That clears the actual cache. Clearing history does not fully do this.)

If you also want to clear cookies / site data:

Safari → Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data → Remove All.
