"CLEAR RECENT HISTORY" does NOT delete all history (even if i check all and set time range to EVERYTHING)

firefox left some sites undeleted

You can delete places.sqlite to remove all the history.

  • My Library (History/Show All History) does not show ANY History - only Tags & "All Bookmarks". What settings do I need to adjust to have this show. Nothing in the Options/Privacy seems to be relevant

    Lightning is a problem for you because it hooks into Thunderbird at a low level and you need a version compiled for the platform Thunderbird is running on. So you can't do the preferred solution, which is to put your whole profile in a shared folder and have both instances of Thunderbird reference the same profile. (Ditto for Enigmail). Lightning may become an integral part of Thunderbird in an upcoming release, at which point this limitation due to Lightning should disappear.
    And if you can't use a shared profile, you can't set your Lightning, or your Address Book, to share a common set of files. Put another way, the linkage from Thunderbird to its address book files and calendar data is hard-coded, and not exposed where we can adjust it. :-(
    The halfway house is to place your mail stores in a shared place, and use the Local Directory setting in each account's settings to connect to it. They don't need to be in the profile; what's more important in your case is that they are in a folder accessible to both operating systems.
    Look in your profile; everything under Mail and ImapMail needs to be moved out to a shared folder. Note the entries in Thunderbird under Local Directory before you do this, and reconstruct those pathnames in Thunderbird, but adjusted to suit their new locations.
    (You can see here that you need to make many adjustments, one per account, in each instance of Thunderbird, so it's a high-maintenance solution and this is why we don't recommend it when the alternative, moving the whole profile, is possible.)
    I share address books and calendars between Thunderbirds on various computers (and my phone and tablet) by syncing to something in the cloud; Google Contacts and Google Calendar are my choices, using gContactSync and CalDav.
    Having made the break myself some years ago, I'd recommend you break away from Windows. ;-)

  • Ever since I upgraded to IOS 7 on my iPad, it does not remember my passwords, even though I check "keep me signed on".  Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing?  I did not have this issue with the previous OS.  Thank you.

    Ever since I upgraded to IOS 7 on my iPad2, it does not remember my passwords, even though I check "keep me signed on".  Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing?  I did not have this issue with the previous OS.  Thank you.

    Thank you, James, but I do have a WiFi connection on the iPad mini. The Numbers files update on my iPad third generation and iPhone just fine when connected to the same network.
    Do you have any other suggestions?
    Thank you!

  • ***Privacy Compromise*** | Safari does NOT delete the History on Leopard |

    After hitting Reset safari and choose history Safari actually deletes the History - at least so it cannot be accessed within Safari it self. Same things go for the Clear History Command.
    Here comes the H O W E V E R :
    In this location - /User/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari/History - ALL the history pages can be accessed and double clicked on in order to get to the homepage one would please...
    Imagine there are some web pages that I dont want NO ONE to see that I have accessed. I can reset Safari as much as I please - one thing is for sure - The person in question who wants to access my history can do so - as long as he knows where to look.
    IMO - this seriously compromises privacy and totally VOIDS Apple's security guide lines.
    I wonder whether this was done purposely or accidentally ?

    Try deleting all the files mentioned here;

  • Firefox 3.6.3 does not save any history, does not save passwords. I have read the forum and checked my settings (ok), started in Safe mode (still does not work).

    Firefox 3.6.3 does not save history, nor passwords. I have read the forum and checked my settings in Privacy (all ok), I restarted Firefox in Safe mode (it still does not remember history or passwords). Running on XP. I think these problems started when I upgraded to 3.6.3.

    I had the same problem after an upgrade to 3.6.3.
    I was using password manager for a number of web sites before. Not using cookies but password manager.
    After 3.6.3 auto upgrade it did not work.
    I could not enter private browsing mode.
    When I looked in tools>options>security at my saved passwords the list was blank. The button in the saved passwords dialog that normally says "Show saved passwords" was actually blank (the button was there but there was no text on it).
    I did have my old bookmarks and was able to create new ones but oddly the bookmark all tabs menu function wouldn't work.
    I decided to reinstall firefox 3.6.3. There is no way something with that many bugs got out!
    I was able to get the full firefox executable from http://mozilla.com
    I closed all firefox windows and ran the installation.
    After re-running the install and starting firefox everything was fine. It must have been a bad download or the original install got messed up somehow.
    I hope you have the same good fortune I had!

  • Cut paste wed address still there after logging out and then logging back in. clearing history does not delete it

    After I highlight, copy and paste info into search box look at what I want, after leaving firefox and after manually deleting history and leaving firefox with setting to delete history upon leaving, when I re-enter firefox with cursor in search box right click and old info is still there. I also made sure to clear search history.Doesn't matter what website yahoo google, google maps, put cursor in search box right click and it's still there.
    Thanks.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the formhistory.sqlite file that stores the "Saved Form" data.
    Try to rename or delete formhistory.sqlite and other possible formhistory.* files like formhistory.sqlite-journal and formhistory.sqlite-corrupt in the Firefox profile folder.
    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

  • Deleting history does not delete the log of calls ...

    In order to delete history, I followed the recommended procedure:
    Skype --> privacy --> clear history --> save
    The history appears cleared: however, when I do this
    Skype --> account --> view call history
    the entire history is still there. Any ideas how to clear this?

    Hi,
    Our call history as it appears in our accounts remains on record where we can review it for a term of six (6) months.  I am not aware of any means for us to "remove" or to "delete" these records; you would need to contact Skype customer service to enquire further.

  • Mozilla does not remember ldap password, even though I check the "remember" checkbox.

    Every time I enter an email address, Mozilla pops up the "LDAP Server Password Required". I enter the password and check the "Use password manager to remember this password". Then the message pops up again. I enter the info again. Then it accesses the LDAP server. But next time I type in an email address, it hasn't remembered the password.
    Thanks, Vilis

    It could be the password files are corrupted and not accepting changes, so I would delete (or move to a safe location) these files from the profile folder: keys.db, signons.sqlite, signons#.txt. Select Help/Troubleshooting Information, click Show Folder to open the profile folder, exit TB, and delete or move the files.
    You can record any stored passwords before doing this by opening Tools(or AppMenu/Options)/Options/Security/Passwords/Saved Passwords, as deleting the password files from the profile will erase all stored passwords.

  • MY history does not clear when i select clear history +clear is on"everything" ?

    clearing history does not work anymore, I select the option to clear everything. In order to clear history I have to go under show all history and delete each individual item

    I have the latest version. I have History only selected. When I manually select Clear Recent History, it deletes some items but not everything. I just performed Clear Recent History and 8 sites are still showing up. None of them are in my Bookmarks and most of them I haven't visited in weeks. It is a real pain finding the sites that I would like to select when all this garbage fills up the list.

  • Firefox location bar history does not clear

    Problem: When I attempt to delete or clear the Location bar, nothing happens. The Location Bar remains fixed and does not update as I browse. This fixed Location Bar history still remains despite various methods of clearing it.
    Specs: Running Firefox 3.6.8 on Windows Vista.
    Details: Despite various methods, location bar history remains fixed and does not change or update as I browse. I wish for it to display an accurate history but it instead remains fixed. The only way to clear it is to open Tools > Options, and click on Nothing under Location bar suggestions. However, this renders the location bar useless for providing history.
    - Selecting websites in Location Bar and pressing "Delete" or "Backspace" has no lasting effect. The website goes away while the Location Bar is pulled down, but reappears in the exact same spot when the Location Bar is viewed again.
    - Clearing recent history, with time range set to everything and all options selected in the Details panel, does nothing.
    - Pressing Ctrl-Shift-H and deleting all history does not clear Location Bar.
    - While in History, highlighting any websites displayed on the Location Bar and telling Firefox to forget it does not clear the Location Bar.
    - Running Firefox in Safe Mode still gives me the same problem. Location Bar does not change.
    P.S. Location Bar does not display Bookmarks. There are no stars next to any web addresses despite changing Location Bar Suggestion settings to "Bookmarks".
    I simply want to get my Location Bar back in working order, but have been unable to do so following the conventional methods suggested on Firefox Support. Thanks for your help!

  • I need to delete the entire browsing history so when i type in a webpage it soes not bring up previuosly visited sites.  deleting the history does not do this.  any one know how to do this

    I need to delete the entire browsing history so when i type in a webpage it soes not bring up previuosly visited sites.  deleting the history does not do this.  any one know how to do this

    Judy-
    If Private Browsing doesn't do it, try Settings-Safari-Advanced-Website Data-Remove All Websitre Data.
    Or changing Settings-Safari-Autofill to OFF.
    You might also try Settings-Safari and Clear History and Clear Cookies and Data.
    As you can see, there are several controls for Safari.  Which one works depends on what your problem is.

  • How to remove history in the location bar? Deleting history and then using "History" only in the settings for the location bar does not remove old history.

    I want to remove ''old History'' in the Location bar.
    I am using Firefox 3.6.13.
    "Clear recent history" does not remove the old History in the Location bar. And changing the setting to only show "History" does also not remove the old history.
    Pressing "Delete" on single lines when opening the list by clicking the arrow to the right in the location bar, remove the entries temporary. But next time you type in the location bar, the same suggestions are there.

    See:
    * [[Clearing Location bar history]]
    * [[Cannot clear Location bar history]]
    Entries in the location bar drop down list with a yellow (blue on Mac) star at the right end are bookmarks.<br />
    You can remove such a bookmarked item that shows in the list if you open that url in a tab and click the yellow star in the location bar.<br />
    This will open the "Edit This Bookmark" dialog and you can click the Remove button to remove the bookmark if you want to remove such a bookmarked entry.

  • My safari does not keep my history despite all the settings and adjustment i made to the safari preferences so as to be able to keep my browsing history. the browsing history is wiped out whenever i close safari.

    i use macbook pro mid 2012, OS X mavericks. my safari does not keep my history desp[ite all the adjustments made to the settings at safari preferences. my browsing history are cleared whenever i exit safari. i dont know why. i want to try and re - in stall it . the safari is version 7.0.1. but i dont know how.

    If you're having trouble making changes to files that are inside your home folder (represented by a house icon in the sidebar of a Finder window), or if you can't get changes to the settings of an application to stick, then please see below.
    Back up all data.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password dialog will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    In the dialog, select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if it's not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if it's not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
