How do I keep the history from coming back later after I delete it?

Even though I select delete all history each time I use Firefox, I notice that my history shows back up again after a few days. It even shows a week or more of previous history sometimes. There is another user for my computer. Are they requesting that my history be pulled up again and again, just to prove that they know which sites I am visiting? What is going on? I simply do not want my history made available to anyone but me. I do not want any history kept at all.

Hello krmorberg2002, go to Firefox button (Tools menu if you have not enable the firefox/orange button) and then click Options to access the options window > Privacy panel > History session > Firefox will set '''Never remember history ''' '''''OR''''' if you prefer to set '''Use custom settings for history''' then '''UNcheck''' Remember my browsing and download history [ ] and Remember search and form history [ ].

thank you

I created an album from photos taken off three different cameras. I am sorting the photos manually and when I close iPhoto, the photos move back either by date or by camera import time. How can I keep the photos from moving around?

How do i keep the aps from running in the background on my iphone 4s? Just downloaded the new version

If you're talking about closing running apps, they changed it up a bit from iOS6. Now you just double click the home button to bring up the running apps, side scroll to the app you want to close, then just swipe up.

How do I keep my iPad from switching back and forth from my Apple ID to my husbands Apple ID?

How do I keep my iPad from switching back and forth from my Apple ID to my husbands Apple ID?

Your question confuses me because there is no way that the iPad can switch Apple ID's without user input. Where are you seeing evidence of this?
If you are seeing app updates that require your husbands ID, that's because those apps were purchased with his ID and will always require his ID and password for updates.
If you are seeing his ID elsewhere, explain....

Why is my mail coming back up after i delete it

why is it, when I try to delete an email it keeps, coming back up after i delete it/ refresh.

Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

If that doesn't work, try re-indexing the mailboxes. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

I have the iCloud Photo Library (Beta) turned on. The photos from my iPhone do get uploaded to the iCloud. The photos are then downloaded to my wife's iPhone (we share the iCloud account). How do I keep the photos from downloading to my wife's iPhone

I do not want all the photos from my iPhone downloading to my wife's iPhone from iCloud? We share an iCloud account. How can I prevent the download to my wife's iPhone from iCloud. .The "Upload to My Photo Stream" is turned off on my iPhone. . I am running 8.1.3.
I have a related question. In order to same space on my iPhone is there a way to upload the photos to the iCloud and then delete them from my iPhone.

The way to keep the photos from downloading to your wife's phone would be for her to go to Settings > iCloud > Photos > and turn off iCloud Photo Library. If that isn't an option, the other option would be for her to have her own Apple ID ( and possibly explore the new family sharing options https://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/ )
Regarding the "related question" see the quotes below from iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
Deleting a photo or video from your Photos app will also remove the item from iCloud Photo Library and from your iCloud storage allocation. Photos and videos you remove can be recovered from the Recently Deleted album for 30 days. After 30 days, your content will be removed from the Recently Deleted album.
If you want to reduce the space used by photos on your phone, rather than deleting them see the following:
How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your iOS device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. iCloud Photo Library stores the original, high-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and can keep lightweight, device-optimized versions on each of your devices. As long as you have enough storage, recent photos and videos that you access the most will stay on your device at full resolution.
You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.

How do I keep the music from my old 1st gen mini and put it on my new ipod touch without loosing it. the computer I used to load the mini was stolen quite some time ago????

How do I keep my music from my old 1st gen ipod mini when the computer that I originally loaded it with was stolen more than 5 years ago and transfer all the music onto my new ipod touch? My fear has always been that plugging my mini into another computer and attempting to download more music onto it or take what's on there off will end up erasing all of it because of file sharing regs. I would really prefer not to have to repurchase several hundred dollars of music as many of the original cd's that I used to download have been either lost or damaged over the years. Is there anything I can do????

How can I keep the history of my dialed and received calls for one or two weeks on my iPhone 5?

How can I keep my history for my dialed and received calls on my iPhone 5?

The only thing is, I have read where it will only keep 100 entries at tops. I'm not sure as I have never let it get that high, however many business users have reported this.
OP, how much history are you talking about keeping? Also, there is no method to archive this in any fashion to be looked at or searched at a later date.

I don't want all the contacts on my iBook to transfer into my iPhone. How do I keep the iPhone from importing all contacts?

Help! I want to synch some things from my iBook to my iPhone, but most of my iBook Address listings I don't want on my phone. How do I keep the synch function from pouring addresses back in that I have just spent 90 min deleting??

Create a group in Address Book only containing the contacts you want on the phone, then choose that group in iTunes for syncing to the iPhone.

How do I keep the screen from dimming in Front Row DVD Player

Nothing against the standard DVD Player program, but when I'm using the remote Front Row has more functionality. When I use it plugged in, there is no problem, but on battery power the screen auto-dims like normal and then brightens again and dims again...on and on. It proves to be very distracting.
Is there any way anybody knows to keep the screen from dimming like that while im in front row DVD player?
Newmac

Go to System Preferences > Energy Saver and change the time for screen dim in your prefs for battery operation. You can always change the setting back to the existing setting later, if you like.

How can I keep Time Machine from Automatically backing up any external drive connected

Problem: Whenever I have an external drive attached and TimeMachine starts, it tries to back-up the drive. Usually, this causes Time Machine to gut my TimeMachine back-ups to try and make room before saying, not enough space to complete the back-up. NOT Helpful! I maintain offline/offsite clones of my drives but I also receive drives with large amounts of data which I will want backed up AFTER I have copied it to my drives. Yes, I can go into TimeMachine and exclude the drive(s). If I forget to do that, then BYE BYE back-ups.
Ideally, I would like a prompt asking if I want to include the drive in theTimeMachine back-up after I connect it. Anyone know how to set this?
or
I would be fine with simply having TimeMachine treat all drives unknown to the backup as drives to be ignored.
Thoughts?

It worked beautifully before and would update only when I plugged the firewire drive in and also if I left it over 10 days it would remind me to back up the computer.
Right, the behavior hasn't changed between SL and Lion.
I would have liked the option to set times / days when I wanted.
SL didn't have this, any more than Lion does.
Also now I have a greyed out icon with a warning sign and clicking on the preferences it helpfully tells me the last back up has failed.
Because it DID.
I am usually happy with the updates and tweaks but this is one I am not happy and would appreciate a solution or at least a work around.... and no I don't like having the default to Time Machine as off!
Time Machine hasn't significantly changed between SL and Lion. Well, other than the local HD backup sets when a portable device is away from the actual backup destination, which really seem to freak people out for some reason.

App or podcast downloaded to iphone is deleted from iphone and transferred to iTunes 11. How can I keep the file from being deleted from the iPhone?

I recently updated iTunes from version 10.x to 11. In version 10, I could download a podcast or an app to my iPhone from the app store, then the app or podcast would co COPIED to iTunes during a sync. Now with version 11, when I sync, the app or podcast is deleted from my iPhone and MOVED to iTunes. How can I get back the old feature of making a copy? This is a very dumb thing that happens in iTunes and I can not believe that I am the only one to complain abou this. Please help me. What do I need to change in iTunes to keep my copy on the iPhone.
Thanks to all you geniouses out there!
Doug

Not 100% sure of your question. If you are wanting to delete apps from itunes just right click then delete then empty recycle bin.

Exporting to PDF with hyperlinks, how do I keep the squares from showing around them?

I have a document Im creating and I have ads created in graphics, other PDFs, and text which all have hyperlinks in them that I want to be clickable. the JPGs with them, I put an invisible square over the link and assigned the link. For most of the PDFs I got, the hyperlinks were already clickable. When I export the final document to PDF, all those links are carried over just how I like, and no squares are shown over those links...perfect. For all the typed text that has hyperlinks, those show a square going around those links. Its VERY ugly! How do I keep it from doing that and keep everything clickable that needs to be?

The following simple Javascript should set all of document's hyperlinks to "invisible rectangle":
var myHyperlinks = app.activeDocument.hyperlinks.everyItem().getElements();
for (i = myHyperlinks.length - 1; i >= 0; i--){
myHyperlinks[i].visible = false;
(save it as "HyperlinksInvisible.jsx", or whatever, put it into the Scripts panel folder, and double-click its name in the Script Panel to run it.)

How do i keep the phone from duplicating phone contacts they are in my phone after the new download over 15 times each contact?

i have duplicates of all my contacts in my phone contacts. how do i avoid this from happening and is there a way to erase these without having to do them one at a time. I have many that are in there 15-17 times? i hae the Iphone4s.

press a button after every couple of min. to keep the phone "active". That sounds a little fishy to me!
Agreed, that is the simplest thing to do... probably much easier than talking your IT guys into raising your timeout.
