How to stop safari on ios7 from remembering history?

How to stop safari on ios7 from remembering history?
I hate to continually delete my history. Is there a way to stop it or set it to delete it on its own every day?

Hey Bigchins!
I have an article here that can address your question for you. The feature you are looking for is called private browsing, and it is explained here:
To enable or disable Private Browsing, turn Private Browsing on or off.
Private Browsing in iOS 5 protects private information and blocks some websites from tracking your behavior. Safari doesn't remember the pages you visit, your search history, or your AutoFill information.
Note: While Private Browsing is enabled, the Safari bars appear black or dark instead of blue or gray.

How to stop the new health application from Count the steps/ woking background?

how to stop the new health application from Count the steps/ woking background?
I really need your help

I agree with Mr. Hall that using mx.controls.Alert in Flex may be a better route.
Show the Alert like this:
// show an alert with a question and yes and no choices
Alert.show( "Would you like to go to the Adobe Forums?", "Question",
     Alert.YES | Alert.NO, this, closeHandler, null, Alert.YES );
Then handle the response in the closeHandler() function:
protected function closeHandler( closeEvent:CloseEvent ):void
if( event.detail == Alert.YES )
     navigateToURL( new URLRequest('http://forums.adobe.com'), '_self' );
else if( event.detail == Alert.NO )
     // they chose no
The following documentation on Alerts may be helpful:

Let me know if that helps...

How to stop lion recovery disk assistant from downloading?

Since I planned to upgrade the stock disk on my macbook pro I created a USB stick backup of the Lion OS using Lion recovery disk assistant. It built a bootable copy of my Lion OS. I replaced the drive, booted from the USB stick Lion, formatted the new drive with disk utility with one OSX partition, and bunch of Linux partitions for the planned dual/triple/etc. boot. I then used the recovery disk menu to reinstall OSX on the new disk. It took off and started the download just like while booting with R key or from the recovery partition AGAIN!. This is a 2 hour proposition and is totally ridiculous. I need to be able to reinstall without downloading Lion every time. Any ideas on how to stop this new Apple invention from doing this download?

If you read the Disk Recovery Assistant documentation all that it does is put a copy of the Recovery HD onto the flash drive. There is no OS on it to reinstall, hence the reason for the Internet download.
If you wish to have a true bootable installer flash drive for your system, then here's what is involved. Start by going to this link: Downloading Hardware Specific Lion Installers. Follow the instructions very, very carefully because this can be a bit tricky.
Once you have the installer application:
Make Your Own Lion Installer
1. After downloading Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Lion application. After Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing Lion.
2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
3. Locate the saved Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility.
Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Drag the InstallESD.dmg disc image file into the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable Lion installer that you can use without having to re-download Lion.

Go to Settings/ Store and under the category "Automatic Downloads" you can turn OFF the automatic download of purchases to your device (this needs to be done for each device). There's also a setting in iTunes just for automatic pushes to your iTunes library.
To remove a purchase you've made directly to your device, you can either:
a- Swipe across the song title from left to right and press Delete, or
b- If you auto-sync your device, connect to iTunes and click on the Music tab where you define your sync settings (the Music tab is to the right of the overall Summary page of your device). At the bottom of the Music tab you'll see direct purchases that are on your device -- simply un-check those and click "Apply" or "Sync" to remove them.
c- If you manually manage music on your device, connect to iTunes and click the small arrow to the left of your device name, and then click on the Music folder under your device. Then navigate to the item(s) you want to remove and then delete them.
To prevent things from syncing from your library to your device, there are many ways to do that (un-checking things in your library is one way, but not the best IMO). Might want to read the manual or some online tutorials on iTunes if you want to learn more.

How to send active links in email from firefox. Works in IE but not Firefox... Is there a setting to change?

Check with your web mail service provider for help with that issue.

I want to configure Firefox to only accept cookies from a specific list of websites, but my "Allow Exceptions" list is deleted when Firefox closes.

I want to configure Firefox to only accept cookies from a specific list of websites, but my "Allow Exceptions" list is deleted when Firefox closes. (Firefox 5.0)

@dmcritchie:
''How do you expect to keep cookies for certain sites, if you wipe out all of your cookies when the session ends or you clear the same history through the Tools menu''
If you mean from session-to-session, I don't expect it to keep cookies. That's the whole point. Every time Firefox is opened, I want it to write a new cookie, and keep that cookie until it closes and no longer than that. (Perhaps I should clarify: I don't mean session in the networking sense but rather in the period of time when one starts using Firefox until Firefox closes.) The behavior I want is for it to be able to write cookies when open, but only for specific sites, and then forget about them on close.
I should also mention that your responses are worthless to me because you don't explain anything. For instance, the quote above is ''not'' obvious from your reply of "Make sure you are not clearing cookies". You need to explain this; what is obvious in a reading for you is not obvious for everyone.
Furthermore, how is "Site Preferences" related to "everything on the right-side"? (Not to mention that it's unclear what you mean by "right-side.")

Make it stop! How to stop Safari from constantly asking to use a password even though I've "Denied" it 100s of times

Since getting the new Mac Mini a few weeks ago, and using the new version of Safari, when I go to some websites I visit regularly Safari constantly asks if I want to use a certain password. I press Deny and keep getting asked the next time I visit that page, again, again and again.
How can I make it stoppppppp.
Specifics: I develop for NetSuite users. NetSuitee- commerce sites use https://checkout.netsuite.com as the URL and I need to have a test shopping account login for each site I manage.
On the backend of NetSuite, the part that no one sees, where we login to make changes to the site and items, etc. the URL is https://system.netsuite.com
I have other completely different login passwords and accounts for logging in at that URL.
The latest version of Safari constantly asks me if I want to use one of my checkout.netsuite.com passwords every time I visit system.netsuite.com (which I have to do many times a day) I have to click Deny to each a every one of them, every time I visit the page. It's annoying as #$%@&.
The older system/Safari didn't do that. It kept checkout.netsuite.com passwords separate from system.netSuite.com passwords and never asked me to use one on the other. How can I get back to the old functioning so I can have peace of mind once again?
Thanks
On a related note: Safari no longer saves passwords I create new at system.netsuite.com unless I first go into the Keychain and manually create a new password item. Is that normal, too, or do I have something set up incorrectly?

Contact your wireless provider, have them reset your password, and try again.

How to stop safari on iPad from opening tabs

When browsing, Safari opens new tabs unexpectedly when I do not want a new tab. I end up with many tabs, often more than a dozen, open unnecessarily.
Is there a way to control or stop Safari from opening volumes of tabs? Under what conditions does it open new tabs?

Sorry, you can't. Tabs came with iOS5 I believe. Best you can do is manage them and close extras as they pop up.

How to stop Safari from realoading page and worst, start at the TOP?

When clicking something, for example an article in an online newspaper, after reading, when you scroll back to the newspaper, Safari reloads and starts at the TOP of the page. This drives me crazy, and I have to work hard to figure out were I was in the very long frontpage of the online newspaper. Please help!
PS! Opera DOES NOT do this. So I want Safari to behave like Opera :-)
But Opera is not as good on a Mac as on a PC (I tried), so I have to use Safari, and therefore needs to figure this out.
Please help! :-)

This Apple-forum we now are using are a great example of the how totally useless Safari is.
I tried to find answer for my question, and pressed "more" at the bottom of the page, and then "more" again and again until I found something interesting i want to read. So I was a bit down in the forum frontpage. Opened the forum-post, read and used mouse gestures to get back to the forum.
Safari reloaded and startet at the top of the page, so now I must scroll down and press "more", scroll down again and press "more" again, scroll and press "more" and then once again, just to get where I was in the first place!!!
Well, I am speachless. If this problem is unsolvable, I have no other choice than find another browser to use. This is just too stupid and it drives me crazy!
So, you kind people out there, this is really an emergency.
And if Apple-staff are reading this, well, you now know what you have to do, fix it immediately!
