Facebook log in opens after I clear my search history

When I click on tab of the browser homepage to clear history, Facebook log in page opens.

That happens if you clear the cookies.

  • I'm unable to clear my search history after many attempts with the firefox instructions as I'm unable to check the "Form and Search History" box for some reason

    I've tried several times to clear my search history without any success. I've been able to do so in the past, but this is the first time I've tried in a while and for some reason it will not let me check the box for "Form and Search History." Then sometimes it will let me check that box, but when I click "ok" to apply the clearing of the search history, nothing happens and it still remembers all my sites. At that point I try to clear it again and its back to not letting me check the "Form and Search history" box (I've gone through this cycle a few times). I tried looking through some of suggested articles that Firefox sent me too, but I don't know much about computers and just doing the things they seem talking about isn't working either. Please help, thanks!

    It seems to have worked itself out. Thanks anyway!

  • How do you clear spotlight search history in mail?

    I'd like to clear search history in Mac Mail.  How do I clear this history?

    In Safari, use the open book symbol to go to bookmarks. At the top of the list is "History", tap history and then tap the clear button on the bottom left of the screen.  That clears the search history as well.

  • How do you clear google search history

    How do you clear google search history. I tried the clear history in settings and all the old searches are still there

This may help others??

    No question, i`m telling you how i solved the "clear Google search history" problem in the Google search bar and drop down, not "clear recent history"."'''Well, i decided to create a new profile in Firefox 21, and using add ons compatibility reporter and check compatibility, i finally have the "clear search history" clearing when i click It, after searching, clears all searching history in the Google search bar and drop down."''' see attachment again.

  • I am unable to clear Bing search history. Bing says this is an issue with Firefox.

    I recently found that I was able to clear my Bing.com search history with the exception of five searches all done on one day. Attempts to clear give this message "We can't clear your search history right now. Please try again later." Nor am I able to clear the searches individually.
    Bing customer service suggested it was related to Firefox. I uninstalled Firefox and opened the site with another Browser. No change.
    Any suggestions as to how to deal with this problem.

    So both browsers you tried give the identical error message that Bing is unable to clear the history right now? It does sound like a Bing problem in that case.
    Note: I assume this is history on the Bing website, and not Firefox's search bar or a Bing toolbar.

  • Clear Google search history from Safari Toolbar (v.4.0.3 and up)

    How to clear your search history. TEDIOUS but works.
    *Delete Google results pages from the history*
    In Safari 4.0.3 and up, you may now search your history. Search for the URL string www.google.com/search? and delete the records that match it.
    *Clear the search strings from the toolbar*
    Quit Safari then from the Terminal, run this command:
    defaults delete com.apple.safari RecentSearchStrings
    When you start Safari again, the search history should be empty.
    Somebody could probably build a shell script that searches the History.plist XML file and deletes the <dict> sections AND resets the Safari plist at the same time. I'm not that good with string manipulation, so I'm hoping somebody with experience could pick this up. Then that shell script could be made into an AppleScript or set up with Automator. Wishful thinking?

  • Installed Apps (including Facebook) don't open after migrating to OS 3.0

    All the apps i've personally installed (including Facebook) will not open/run post conversion to OS 3.0. do I need to reinstall them?

    If some or most of your 3rd party apps crash when launching them after upgrading to 3.0, I have a fix that cured my problem. Another symptom is that you can delete the App, then reinstall and it works until syncing with iTunes.
    Well my cure was to download any app, even a free one via iTunes, then sync with the iPhone. All was cured. I usually just download Apps straight from the iPhone, but the iTunes route worked.

  • After query clear ADF search form

    I have a adf search form with a date picker. When I push the search button I go to my view object class to change the query
    String criteria3 = (String)vcr.getAttribute("Datenaiss");
    if (attrs.getName()=="Datenaiss"){
    if (criteria3 != null) {                    
    criteria3="> '"+criteria3+"'";
    vcr.setAttribute("Datenaiss", criteria3 );
    The I receive the result on my jsp but in the field of my date I see now e.g. > '1992-01-17'
    can you help me ?

    If have found a solution to clear the search form
    protected void executeQueryForCollection(Object object, Object[] object1, int i) {
    // set the inputfields to uppercase
    switchStringsViewCriteriaToUpper();
    // execute the query
    super.executeQueryForCollection(object, object1, i);
    // clear the parameters
    super.clearViewCriterias();

  • SAFARI 6: how do I clear Google search history?

    There used to be an option at the bottom of the scroll down search bar for CLEAR SEARCH.
    Now that Safari 6 has adopted the single info bar, that option seems to have disappeared.
    So how do I clear search history?
    I don't want to clear all history (i.e. sites visited),
    just search history.

    Thank you,
    but the point of my question was precisely that in 2012,
    the way that Google is presented within Safari is different
    (e.g., there is now just a single search bar),
    so some of the info on the old threads is no longer relevant.
    That is why I titled the qustion clearly "SAFARI 6".
    However, I have discovered the answer myself.
    I think I was being just too impatient.
    The same option of CLEAR RECENT SEARCHES  does come up
    if you click and hold on the magnifying glass icon to the left of what is now the single Google search bar.
    This click and hold opens a roll-down menu, and near the bottom is the CLEAR RECENT SEARCHES option.

  • Unable to clear Google search history in Safari

    I am unable to clear old searches in Safari.  None of the following has any effect: using the clear recent searches button, totally resetting Safari, deleting all history and cache and trying to delete each individual search item manually, or by changing default search method.  These are old items, not recent searches, but they continue to show up in the recent search area.  It appears to be a bug.  Any ideas how to REALLY clear out the search cache?
    THANKS

    Seem to have finally fixed it by deleting the safari plist entry.

  • Clear recent search history in google search bar

    Would someone know how to clear the recent search history in the Google search bar? There is no option for clearing the recent search, I think that was eliminated. I cleared the cache, in Safari, but that doesn't clear the google search bar. Is there an option? TIA.

    Hi, sorry, can't seem to figure out how to post a question
    Hi fcckmd, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Yeah, it can be confusing as to where to find the Post New Topic button on this forum.
    The reason it's hard to find that Post New Topic link, is because if there are any categories at the top, you must choose one first, like...
    http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=177
    But say chose the Using Mac OS X Tiger and you get...
    http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=758&start=0
    Clicking the Post New Topic link gets you here...
    http://discussions.apple.com/post!default.jspa?forumID=758
    that even holds crazy ones like iCal that have but one Category... iCal!

  • I am unable to clear "Form & Search History" because that option is not available. How do I unclick it?

    When I close Firefox, I clear everything except the "Form & Search History" which is greyed-out so I can't access it. Also, the options I can choose are not saved by Firefox.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved and [[Preferences are not saved]]
