  • How do I disable the automatic google search in Safari

    How do I disable the automatic google search mechanism in Safari 6.0.
    When I type a url (or modify an existing one) if Safari doesn't understand/like what I type it does a Google (or whatever) search automatically.
    If I have misspelled something, or made a typo, I want to know about it -- not have some twit program tell me what it thinks I wanted to know.
    This is the same problem which exists for ISPs (and I realize that Apple is trying to grab the advertising dollars THEY get when you type in a bad URL).
    I simply want to be able to turn OFF this "feature."
    I also note that with this change it is no longer possible to select any search engine BUT Google. Annothe "feature" which I find utterly descriminating. There are many times when I want to see the results from different search engines -- as they all return different results, probably 90+% of the time.

    There's not really a way to disable that feature, apple decided it would be easier for customers to have the address bar and google search bar all in one.

  • How do I clear the recently edited files in the file menu?

    How do I clear the recently edited files in the file menu? (ie. cache)

    I don't have PSEv.13, but in my current version, and in the two that I had before, the behavior is/was identical.
    As far as I know, the only way to purge an entry in the list of recently edited files via the File menu, is to delete the picture file or send it to the recycle bin.
    Perhaps someone will come along with additional information.
    "The File option dose not have an option for FILE-MORE-PURGE CACHE. as Adobe suggested."
    Where is this referenced suggestion?? On-line? In a book or manual?

  • How do I clear the 'recently added' playlist?

    How do I clear the 'recently added' playlist?

    It isn't set up that way.  It is a smart playlist (right click on it to see details) which uses the "date added is last two weeks" command.  You would have to change the date added on the tracks it contains to be older than two weeks, or do some other modification to the smart playlist such as only have it display items that had not been played at all.  I don't know if there is an easy way to do that unless it is in Dougscripts.

  • How do get rid of the google search box when I first open Firefox?

    How do get rid of the google search box when I first open Firefox?

    Firefox 4 and later versions use a new build-in home page named <b>about:home</b> with a Google search bar on it.
    That about:home page only shows some snippets and has a button to restore the previous session if applicable.
    If you want a home page with extras then set another page as the home page like www.google.com as used in Firefox 3 versions.

  • How do I clear the "recent" user account pictures in Mountain Lion?

    How do I clear the "recent" user account pictures in Mountain Lion? A friend posted a stupid photo as one of the pictures as a joke and I cant figure out how to remove it from the recent pictures.
    Thanks

    To completely remove the files, from the desktop click Go>Go to Folder and type
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.ImageKit.RecentPictureService/Data/Library/Images /Recent Pictures/
    Then move the files you don't want to trash.
    Make sure to empty trash and restart before viewing your recents again, or they will reappear.

  • Bookmarks pick up most recent google search and give me an error page

    Started just recently, after an upgrade: I use the google tool bar and when I click on one of the buttons (essentially a bookmark) Firefox automatically tags on to the bookmarked URL the most recent google search. For instance http://www.google.com/search?sitesearch=analytics.blogspot.com&q=firefox&submit=Go
    This doesn't happen in Safari or Chrome, so I don't think it's a google issue. I have to close Firefox and re-start it in order to lose the unwanted tail on my bookmark. Ideas?

    It may be Kaspersky intercepting your secure connection to Gmail.
    Try to start Windows in safe mode with networking enabled to verify if this is the case.
    Do you see this problem with other secure sites too?

  • How can I clear the recent document list on the welcome page?

    Have some confidential docs that I don't want to appear when the program is launched. How can I clear the recent document list on the welcome page and the "open recent" list?  thx

    It's not an option in the prefs. It's a hidden file that makes up part of the preference set (as far as I know, most, or all of the seetings you can adjust inside ID's prefences dialog are actually saved in the other half of the set, InDesign Defaults).

    That info is stored in the registry on Windows and in a file in the Library on the Mac. nothing you can erase easily, but if you are feeling adventurous, on windows you could launch regedit, then search the registry for HKEY_USERS\[your user ID numeric key]\Software\Adobe\MediaBrowser\MRU\illustrator.

  • How to type a URL if Google search bar removed for privacy

    Because it appears that in Safari it is impossible to remove the Google Search Bar that's off to the right at the top without also removing the now connected URL Location bar to its left, I removed both. I had noticed that when I did this in Camino, I could still go to a web page by clicking Command L for Open Location (found in the File dropdown menu of most browsers).
    But in Safari just now, when I remove the Google search bar that Apple has hard coded to be inseparable from the Location bar to its left, I find I cannot use the File / Open Location command (which I mentioned is Command key - L) and therefore -- is my browser useless if I do not want to document my travels on the world wide web with Google's databases by having the Search Bar up?
    In other words is it not possible to enter a URL into Safari in a blank and open the URL Location if you remove the Google Search Bar?
    Is the only way to get to a webpage after removing that item to use one's old bookmarks to get to a page?
    Or is this a bug and is my "Command key - L" (Open Location command) supposed to be working? I also started to test this with Firefox but it appears my Firefox browser does not have this problem so my Open Location bar remains even if I remove a search bar and the removable search bar it does have is not tied to google in particular, I don't think, in Firefox even if I remove the search bar though I never use a search bar anyway because I don't care to go to any search engine unless I type their URL into my Location bar personally. That's just my preference because I don't trust having third party search bars forced into the browser design.
    Is this really true as it appears that there's no way to open a Location in Safari without having the annoying Search Bar up? Is Open Location disabled without the Google Search bar?
    If so, it looks like that, of my several browsers, the only one that won't allow me to Open Location (go to a webpage that I type into a Location bar) if I remove the Google Search bar is Safari. I am finding I can successfully extricate myself from Google search if I use Opera, Camino, and Firefox and select Remove after right clicking on the search bar.
    Why would the industry be trying to force this Google data mining and surf habits info collection on people? Evidently because Apple would rather take the money from google for forcing google into our browser than protect its customers privacy? I hope this disease does not spread to the other browsers left for me to use. What a monopoly google is building. Too bad antitrust litigation is dead.
    (If this is true, this is depressing to me because I had set Safari to be my primary browser. But it seems the least secure browser anyway (compared to using NoScript with Firefox) so I guess I'll have to avoid using it (except on those few pages that won't work without it) until Apple starts taking people's privacy a little more seriously instead of sneaking in more and more features that force us into an unholy logging relationship with Big Brother Google. And I'm disappointed in this development also because I used to like Google before I realized its lawyers were so dedicated to writing privacy policies that are as vague as possible and as unprotective of privacy as possible. I would like to use Google more if they would just stop taking 100 miles when a person gives an inch by using their search engine. I get nervous any time I have to use anything connected with them as things stand and I really wish that would improve and that google will improve its privacy policies rather than finding new ways to log every movement a person makes on the Web.)

    The question posed in this thread was:
    How do I type a URL such as "www.apple.com" etc. into a blank in SAFARI to go to the URL if I remove the Google search bar?
    I cannot seem to get Open Location (Command - L) to function if I remove the Google search bar. Removing the Google Search Bar seems to also remove the location bar to type into. This is not the case in Opera, Camino, or Firefox, so I am wondering if my Safari is just corrupted. If the only way to have the option of Open Location (Command L) is to put the Google Search bar back in, which means the two are connected, does that mean that Google is able to record all url's typed in the Location bar even if you don't use the Search bar? I believe the story used to be that any time you type a url into a google search engine, google records your IP and search; so I'm wondering if Apple has now set up the Location bar in Safari in a deal with Google to let Google track every URL you type into the location bar if it is the case that the Location bar is inseparable from Google Search.

  • How to show up in a google search

    I have a godaddy account that is mask forwarding to my .mac hosting. How can I make my site show up on a google search?

  • How do you clear the recent history list (as this function was lost in one of the last app updates )?

    Since this function was apparently lost in one of the last adobe reader app updates, how now are you supposed to clear the recent history, but retain the files on my nexus tablet?

    Hello,
    That explains why I am no longer able to clear the recent history list...
    I understand that removing/deleting the files from my device will remove the files from my list. However this in not ideal for me, as I would like to be able to go back and look at the papers that I have previously read and then be able to clear the recent list. Also, if I can clear the list without removing the files from my device, I can keep track of what I have recently read, and move those files into a second folder on my device to say that I have read the papers at least once. That way I would still have the papers on my device but can clear the list and know that I have read the papers. Thus I really would like a way to clear your history from the recents list, ideally with the option of clearing individual files from the list, as well as a second option to clear all files from the recent list, while retaining the original files on the device.
    Thanks and have a good day,
              Trevor

  • "Awesome Bar" uses Bing search. How do I change it to Google search?

    Though the Help files says that the "Awesome Bar" uses Google search, it is actually using Bing. I want it to use Google. How can I change it. Please note that I am talking about the "Awesome Bar" a.k.a. Address bar - not the Search Bar. Thanks.

    Did you or do you have a "Community Toolbar" installed? Your address bar search runs through Conduit, which is the company behind most of those toolbars.
    To reset your search to Google, the simplest method is an add-on, but you also can do it manually.

  • How do I clear the recent documents screen on the android application when the clear icon is no longer visible?

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software but the clear recent documents icon is no longer visible as formerly experienced.

    Hi,
    The 'Clear Recents' button which was provided in previous releases only *cleared* the Recent list and did not delete the files. The files stayed in your document hierarchy. This button has been removed in the latest release. For deleting the files, you can go to the Documents/Acrobat.com tab and delete the files individually. However, please note that the files will be permanently deleted from your device. Please let us know if this is not a viable option for you. We would like to hear more about your use case.
    Thanks,
    Mehwish
