Being the adminstrator how cn i trace the history of the private browsing on my computer by other users or myself

i would like to know if there is any option to trace the web browsing in private setting on my computer by other users who use my computer

It is always possible to erase the history even in normal mode, so you can never trust the history that you see in a browser.
Firefox doesn't store any data to disk in Private Browsing mode.<br />
You will need a firewall or other security software or router with a (password protected) logging feature if you want a history record that is reliable.

    You need to use other methods like a router or firewall with a password protected logging feature if you want to see the history of visited website in a reliable way.
    There are a lot of ways to clear the history and other private data in Firefox.

    The developers didn't provide any method of disabling or hiding the Private Browsing feature.
    You can hide the Menu items for turning Private Browsing on and off, but the keyboard command will still turn it on:

    There's a Bug filed to disable Private Browsing when "parental controls" are enabled, but that won't help WinXP users - only Vista & (probably) Windows 7 users - but there's been no action to even work on that Bug.
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=471658
    See comment#26, by me, and the response it generated from one of the developers. The developers seem unwilling to do anything, even to restore Firefox 3.5+ versions to the previous state - sans Private Browsing.
    Let Mozilla know how you feel about not being able to disable Private Browsing in Firefox here:

  • I created a form with Single Choice fields, 4 days with times listed. But, I want the user to only be able to choose one time, and the time chosen to be unavailable for other users. How do I do this?

    I created a form with Single Choice fields, 4 days with times listed. But, I want the user to only be able to choose one time, and the time chosen to be unavailable for other users. How do I do this? I have 4 blocks of Single Choice fields in order for the summary page to give me each day in the final report. But, I need the user to be able to make a selection of any day and time and that apointment to no longer be available to future users when they log in. Plus, when the user clicks on the time, they are unable to change their mind and choose another time.

    I'm afraid not.    It's not rocket science but you need to do some coding. 
    You'll need to find a script (php) and save it to your local site folder.  Then reference the script in your form's action attribute like so.
         <form action="path/form-to-email-script.php" >
    The input fields in your HTML form need to exactly match the script variables. 
    I'm  assuming you're hosted on a Linux server which uses PHP code.  Linux servers are also case sensitive, so upper case names are not the same as lower case names.  It's usually best to use all lower case names in your form and script to avoid confusion.

  • I want to remove the Private Browsing function as a Parental Control step. How?

    I don't want my child hiding things from me. How do I block or remove the Private Browsing functionality?

    You wouldn't be able to do it as long as the user has access to [[Profile folder]], lack of which makes Firefox not able to work - the user would be able to delete any data. Even prior to private browsing feature, history was clear-able in ''Tools'' - '' Clear recent history'' window.
    To have more control, you can block some websites/ports in the router or firewall, the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4351/ FoxFilter] add-on can be helpful (but again, the users can simply un-install it).

  • How can I completely remove and/or disable the Private Browsing feature in 3.6?

    I want to run my browser without the Private Browsing feature even usable. Is there a way to not only remove the feature, but also to remove it from the Tools menu?

    There is no built-in way to remove or disable the feature. You can hide the menu options but the keyboard shortcut to start private browsing will still work.

    Even with the menu options hidden it is still possible to delete browsing history. If you want to keep track of all sites visited you will need an external option.

  • I want to remove the "private browsing" option. how?

    Firefox automatically installed the "private browsing" option on my browser. I do not want it.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == past update

    You have or had an extension installed (NET_mmhpset) that has changed the user agent from Firefox/3.6 to Firefox/3.0.x.
    You can check the '''general.useragent''' prefs on the '''about:config''' page.<br />
    You can open the ''about:config'' page via the location bar, just like you open a website.<br />
    Filter: '''general.useragent'''<br />
    If ''general.useragent'' prefs are bold (user set) then you can right-click that pref and choose ''Reset''.

  • How do I delete the private browsing option?

    I want to delete the private browsing option.

    There is no built-in option to disable private browsing. You can use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/menu-editor/ Menu Editor] extension to remove the option to start in private browsing mode from the menus, but that is easily bypassed. For example it does not stop somebody using the keyboard shortcut to open private browsing.
    Private browsing is not the only way to hide browsing details, somebody can remove records of their browsing by using clear recent history.

  • I want all the private browsing sites from Jan 2012 - today. How do I retrieve this?

    Please we are worried about our son - we need all the private browsing sites from jan 2012 - today

    Firefox doesn't store any data to disk in Private Browsing mode, so if you do not have security software or a router that keep a log of visited websites then you are out of luck.

    iPod updates 2 touch with the new software, and from the update they are not connected with Time phase. They appear calling but never they enter the calls. I make calls with other users and if one connects but in these two not from the update

    I use Firefox 95% of the time, and there's no problem with flash content (and I'm still at .55 - downloaded .64 last week but I haven't got round to making the change yet). At the rate they've been changing it recently it may well be out of date already .
    I've been trying it in Safari, too with no problems apart from You Tube, but that's because I'm blocking Google cookies.
    One thought does occur - if your Flash preferences are set to block all Local Storage, it may be that the problem site is trying to use Flash cookies (LSOs). I had this problem recently with the BBC iPlayer streaming content. Little Snitch notified an attempt to connect to a new URL - emp.bbci.co.uk.
    If I disallowed it, no streaming; when I allowed the connection, it still wouldn't stream, so I did a bit of digging and came to the conclusion that it was trying to set a Flash cookie. When I unblocked, lo and behold - streaming resumed as normal.
    I now have LSOs blocked in a more subtle way that lets the site think it's being set (but it ain't) and the streaming still works.
    As for permissions repair - always repair from local; the permissions on the original disc will have been superceded by updates and new installations of Apple software.
    DU needs to be reading the packages on the HD, not the (now out of date) install disc.
    The recurring repair messages are normal and don't mean anything's wrong. As long as the final message is 'repair complete' there's no need to dwell on it.

  • The private browsing option is gone from the tools menu, the one in the file menu dosn't work the same.

    Firefox updated itself this morning to 20. The option to start private browsing in the tools menu is gone. The one in the file menu is not the same, it works differently. I would really like to no how to re enable this feature. I always have a lot of tabs up. When I feel so inclined I would hit the private browse button then close. When I would reopen all my tabs would be there. this is but one example of how I used private browsing. If you could help me with this problem I would be very happy. Thank You for your time and support.

    Hello, when you start the new private browsing, starts in a new Private Window, and you first window it is exist also.
    If you close the private browsing window, your first window exist, but if you close the browser you must set it to '''Show my windows and tabs from last time''' (in Options > General panel > start up) :, [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/startup-home-page-download-settings#w_startup Startup] to see again your tabs and windows when you start firefox.

  • Is there any way to disable or not allow the private browsing function on Firefox for Mac?

    I have 3 young preteen/teenage sons who use our family iMac as their computer. Even though I have a filter on the router to prevent them from getting into trouble, I occasionally check their browsing history just to see when/where they are browsing. On a couple of instances, there has been no history shown for certain websites I know they have visited (per the router report), so I am wondering whether they have activated private browsing to cover their tracks, and if there is parental control function to disable the Private Browsing feature in Firefox.

    Thanks Rick for your Quick replay,
    As my consultant told me , They will get lot of approval messages so we have to make only one inbox message for approval.
    When they select Yes or No , if agreement is not locked by others will get approved or rejected no problem.
    But if agreement is locked , it will get checked only after they hit approve or reject so i will be displaying a message to them that this agreement is locked Hit Cancel button and do the Task later .
    so the approver will comeback at later at 20 or 30 mins and will execute the workitem which on double clicking will execute the already selected ( approve or reject ) status change only .
    This is how i  suggested them and they said okay.
    Only problem they are saying  with LOOP is they have to refresh the SBWP inbox when ever they met with lock of agreement .
    If you still feel using loop and sending again is the best way i will try to ask them again and see.
    Thanks,
    Brahmam

    I have an icloud account with two other users besides myself.  We share the same game center.  We want our own. My two children want their own Clash of Clans account!  What do I do?

    Log out of Gamecenter and try downloading CoC again. if it doesn't prompt you with a new village, try downloading with a different apple id. if that doesn't work, you would need a new device to create a new village and transferring it to your sons device using the code in the CoC settings.
