Google and Mobile View

I have two questions.
One, how do I erase the google history from my G3.
Second, when I go to certain sites it immediately goes to mobile view. On some you can choose to view the regular website. Does anyone know how to get to the regular site for hotmail/msn? I can't view email pictures through the mobile site. Yesterday I accidentally got to the traditional view, but don't know how I did it.

Perhaps, click Search in Google Maps.
Click where you enter
Tap bookmarks
At bottom click Recents.
Up top, click clear.
For websites, that has nothing to do with the phone per say. The site detects you are using a mobile device and the site developer coded the site to render in Mobile. If the site developer doesn't offer a way to view normal site, there isn't anything you can do but complain to that site.

Safari opens google with mobile view after switching User Agent

Hello, as from the discussione title, i had to switch safari's user agent from the default to Safari iOS 5.1 - iPhone for changes to m.google.com/sync i had to make on my WP8. After the changes were done, i ticked user agent back to default, but now when i open google homepage it opens me the mobile version of google and i have to click on CLASSIC in order to make it work. What's wrong?
Safari 6.0.2 (8536.26.17)
Mounta Lion 10.8.2

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Test.

"Formatted for mobile viewing by Google"

When you use Google's mobile search engine with the built-in Nokia browser and choose one of the resulting links, does the site ever appear "formatted" by Google? This has happened now for several weeks and is driving me crazy! Why? Because their "formatted" page looks awful, and because I resent their paternal attempts to protect me from the web! I see "page 1" and "zoom" links at the top, and the text "Formatted for mobile viewing by Google" and a "View page directly" link at the bottom. So to to view the site as I expect, I must now load every page twice!
My phone is an E73 and I'm in the USA, but I expect this new "feature" affects a wide range of Nokia phones. Except that I appear to be the first person here complaining. Perhaps this "feature" isn't yet available worldwide?
Sooo, does this problem affect anybody else?? Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

A happy update. I tried contacting several tech news web sites, to see if their journalists would take up my cause and use their contacts at Google to learn what is going on. (Mere users certainly can't reach Google anymore!) I met a nice fellow from CNet, but even he didn't seem to take my situation very seriously.
So I changed tactics and started taunting Google. At the bottom of every reformatted page is a "Report a problem" link, which leads to a list of common problems and solutions. The last problem is "Other", which leads to a web form. 2 or 3 times a day, I was submitting things like
"I am a user and would like to PERMANENTLY disable reformatted web pages for my Nokia E73 phone, without using logins or cookies. This is a 2-year-old phone and I have gotten by very well so far without your meddling."
"I am a user and take great exception to your attempt to reformat web sites. I get the impression your programmers have run out of things to do and are now making changes for the sake of change, and not based on user feedback. I do not need protection from the big, bad www! Nokia E73 user."
and lastly
"The new, improved Google mobile search proved as welcome as Lupus. A Nokia E73 user."
(If anybody relied on DejaNews in the late 1990's, their usenet search database was a godsend at first, but the web interface was gradually retooled to the point of being unusable. And then an upstart company named Google rescued us by buying the database and again giving it a usable front end. IMHO, Google's search interfaces are now reaching DejaNews complexity and are in need of being rescued themselves. An article on suck.com about the fall of DejaNews inspired the above comment.)
Fast forward about a week and now no search results are reformatted. Even the Preferences link on the main search page doesn't include the option "Format web pages for your phone". Yes, it's possible Google still wasn't listening, and this was just the result of them further refining their filters. Or maybe they turned the whole thing off for now? But for anybody with this problem also needing a resolution, I still highly recommend clicking "Report a problem" and "Other" and telling them what you really think!

Any way to preview Tablet and Mobile layouts ?

When I scale my browser window I don't see the Tablet and Mobile views take effect. Is there an easy way to test these pages ?

Hi,
If you shrink or expand your browser width, the site will not show the phone or tablet layout. You need to use their url, an example is given below
if you want to access about.html, then you should have three version,
www.mysite.com/about.html (For desktop site)
www.mysite.com/phone/about.html (For Phone)
www.mysite.com/tablet/about.html (For Tablet
Use three url to access three version of your site,
Please let me know if you have any other questions.

I currently use an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac computer for business. The three devices have Contacts Managers that sync with each other through both Google and through Mobile Me. Currently, this has created a mess of duplicate contacts. Please advise me on the steps necessary for removing these duplicates and establishing a syncing solution that doesn't regenerate the duplicates. There are several applications available that remove duplicates, but I am not sure which ones work or don't work. I want information on this, but most importantly I want to understand how to fix this problem permanently. Also, I read somewhere that Mac's new operating system, Lion, can help deal with duplicates. I don't have Lion, but I would be willing to get it, if this would fix the problem.

Had the same problem with 4 devices (two computers, an iPhone and an iPod). The solution is simple: open the Address Book application in your mac, ask it to locate duplicate entries (under one of the top menu items, "edit" I think), and then ask it to consolidate them: it took me all of three seconds after I figured it out: worked like a charm! PS: if you have more than one mac with unconected Address Books, repeating the operation in the second one may be a good idea.

When frequently switching between mobile and desktop view

When I frequently switching between mobile and desktop view I have to open the layers every time since they get closed/collapsed. Adobe may need to fix it for the next version.

You can use CTRL+# to switch between Code and Design View.
By the way, this is the Dreamweaver Application Development forum which deals with questions about using server-side scripting languages like PHP or ColdFusion. General Dreamweaver questions should be posted in the regular Dreamweaver General Discussions forum.
And while I´m at it: please use descriptive headlines such as "how to switch between Code and Design View" for your posts -- mentioning your screen name "Goula129" is not helpful to other users.

Unable to view google and facebook in safari

Unable to view google and facebook in safari on ios 7.0.3 on my ipad mini. The page is trying to reload repeatedly and chrome browser is written on the tab where google/Facebook should be.

I am not sure of the reasons but that is the normal
appearance in Safari, at least it is what I have seen. I think the
issue is how Safari handles things rather than what RoboHelp
produces.
In looking at other help products before going for RoboHelp,
did you download some trial versions of other products and have you
checked their output in Safari?
Maybe someone with more knowledge of Safari can comment?
For what it may be worth, only 1.3% of the visitors to my
site use Safari so that wouldn't upset me too much. Of course the
percentage may be different and more important for you. I suspect
Safari users are used to such things.
Right or wrong, IE and Firefox are the biggies.

You can use iCloud to sync your Safari bookmarks between your Mac and your iPad.
Instructions here > Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.
Personally, I like the Wacom stylus for iPad > Amazon.com: Wacom Tech Corp. Bamboo Stylus for iPad/Tablets: Computers & Accessories
And try the accessibility features on your Mac. Open System Preferences > Accessibilty
Apple - Accessibility - OS X
I just noticeed on your other thread you mentioned that you've had your Mac for seven years so iCloud for syncing bookmarks may not be an option for you unless your Mac at the minimum is running v10.7.5 with at Safari 5.1.1. See, "Bookmarks" > System requirements for iCloud

How can I only justify in the mobile and tablet view and justify and indent in the desktop view?

I need to have the text to appear in the mobile and tablet view 100% wide. I need the same text indented by 200px on both side in the desktop view.

Great! You're welcome.
Lynda.com has excellent tutorials (video walkthroughs, exercise files, etc to complement it) that will get you going in no time. It is usually a paid subscription but it's definitely worth every penny.
Here are some basics that I'd recommend for you:
Web Foundation - Learn Web Foundations with Video Courses and Tutorials from lynda.com
Web Development - Learn Web Development with Video Courses and Tutorials from lynda.com
CSS - CSS Video Courses and Tutorials from lynda.com
Dreamweaver - Dreamweaver Video Courses and Tutorials from lynda.com
If you get the basics right (1,2 & 3) DW should be very easy to follow and so would any other authoring software. End of the day, DW is only an application to author with and not a language/ code in itself - it's on the last of my list.
Good luck and happy learning!

Did you create a new profile for that 4.0 beta version?
Do you still have the regular Firefox 3.6.8 version installed?
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox

Text messages from Google and from bank delivered to my Q10 (as T-Mobile confirms) but I can't locate them.

I don't find text messages from Google and from bank on my q10. private sent text messages are delivered normaly. I can also send text messages to myself. Only Googlee & bank TANs are missing. Any ideas?
thank you

I'm afraid there isn't any good answer and I don't have a case number. I posted above what I told the customer support rep and she managed to get it working again. You may have to try calling again and see if you can get another rep who has some idea of what the 'aggregator' thing is and how to submit a ticket to get it fixed for your line.

I installed Firefox on my Android 3.0 Tablet and all Pages are opened in the mobile view. How can i disable this?

How can i disable the mobile view of Firefox?
Thanks for your help.

This add-on will let mobile Firefox send the same headers as desktop Firefox, so that web sites will offer desktop versions by default:
