How do i disable predictive browser?
This thing can get you divorced... no matter how often you clear history cache etc etc, all anyone has to do is type a letter into the browser and all the sites youve visited beginning with the letters typed in will appear ... Someone please tell me you can disable this feature please?
You are able to specify whether History is saves, or cleared after each session,also there is a Private Browsing feature,that may be used temporarily or left on all the time. It is also possible to vary what appears as you enter into the location bar.Finally if you set up separate user accounts on your OS that will allow different users to be separated, or slightly more advanced separate firefox [[profiles]] may be setup.
None of this necessarily totally hides your internet activity from someone who knows what to look for and check (nor from your ISP/Employers IT Dept).

How do I disable private browsing on my computer?
I don't want anyone to be able to private browse using my computer.
There is no built-in option to disable private browsing. You can remove the menu items for opening private browsing, but it will still be possible to access it using a keyboard shortcut. For details see this thread - [https://support.mozilla.com/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?comments_parentId=434922&forumId=1 How do I disable private browsing?]

How can I disable private browsing for middle school students on school laptops?
Hello, I work for a school district and one of the schools within the district is a digital academy meaning the students work completely with laptops. The grade level of these students range from 6th to 12th grade. We need to be able to install pulgins to block explicit content and then disable private browsing's ability to subvert them. They are working on laptops provided by the school with an ubuntu linux derivative running on them. the version of firefox is 5. I have tried the solution from http://kb.mozillazine.org/User:Dickvl/Private_Browsing_disable
and it works with firefox 4 but not 5. Please Help! No matter how closely a child is watched you cannot watch them all the time and parents as well as teachers need to know what kids are up to.
-ThanksThanks dmcritchie! I was out all last week on summer break so I was pleasantly surprised to find your post and to find that you are right!

Actually no. If Safari is in Private mode, the search area and header bar will be black.

How do I disable Content Browser?
I am a student. I have my class on blackboard. I have been unable to "Add Attachment" to submit my assignments. My assignments are saved on my flash drive. When I hit the "Add Attachment" button, something called the "Content Browser" comes up. It will not allow me to upload files from my flash drive. It takes me to some place called "My Files," and I don't even know where that is.

scottHi scott,
Thank you for your question.
I am trying to involve someone more familiar with this topic for a further look at this issue. Sometime delay might be expected from the job transferring. Your patience is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your understanding and support.

Hello everyone,
I have been searching for sometime (without any success) for a solution to permanently remove this annoying message: "Press Esc to exit full screen."
Whenever I go to full screen mode, watching any video on YouTube, BBC, CNN (or many other websites which use Adobe Flash Player for streaming video) I have to bare seeing this message for several seconds until it fades away. Seeing this message once or twice would have been okay, but as we all watch many videos on a daily basis on internet, after weeks, months and now years seeing this message over and over again many times every day, it becomes very annoying, and I find myself rewinding many videos to their beginning after this message fades away to be able to watch it from the beginning without anything obstructing it!
Does anyone know how to "permanently" disable this message from appearing?
I am using the latest version of Safari 6.0 on the latest version of OS X (Mountain Lion 10.8.1), and have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (Plug-in version 11.4.402.265) installed on my new MacBook Pro 15" with Retina Display.
Thanks,
Ally
Thursday, September 13th, 2012Thanks Carolyn,
I am attaching a screenshot here for you to see that this setting was already set to what you suggested. I didn't need to change it as it was like this even before I post this message.
So the problem still presists and unfortunately your suggestion is not a solution to this probelm.
Last night I did more reseach and found a discussion in Adobe website, it seems a lot of other people have the same issue, and even started a discussion in Adobe website about it. But unfortunately Adobe refuses to address it and enable the end user at least to have an option to turn this message off from displaying permanently on his/her computer.
I am writing down the url links for the two posts regarding this issue on Adobe's website:
Link #1: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/921270
Link #2: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3058752
Hopefully more people will get involved and ultimately we will either get Adobe's attention, or someone will find a "hack" and post it here for all of us. I have found some suggested "hacks" for Windows environment (you can simply google it, I am sure you will find them too). But so far I haven't seen anything for Mac's Safari browser.
Cheers,
Ally
