i would like to know if there is a way to remove safari cokies safely.

That's two different things, but in both cases you can slect that from the Safari Menu/Reset Safari.

  • How did old Safari History Items I haven't visited in years appear recently?

    I upgraded to Mountain Lion on Saturday October 13th. I then ran software updates, and got everything up to date. I was home alone, and the only thing I went to YouTube for was to get guidance for setting up Facebook and Twitter notifications. That's it. Today, using spotlight, some Safari History Items appeared for October 13th, 2012 for sites I haven't visited in years. However, none of them show up in my Safari Histroy. What gives?
    Please help! I'm being accused of looking at inappropriate material when I didn't.
    I'm at a loss to explain what really happened. Any concrete help will be greatly appreciated

    Triple-click the line below to select it:
    ~/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari/History
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select Services ▹ Open from the contextual menu. Delete the contents of the folder that opens. Quit and relaunch Safari.

  • "Safari History Items" in Spotlight

    "Safari History Items" show up in my Spotlight searches. This despite the fact that I have "Webpages" unchecked in Spotlight preferences. So, maybe Safari History Items and webpages are two different things? So what does "Webpages" refer to? Mac Help does not contain descriptions of what the categories in Preferences refer to. Also, if turning off Webpages in Spotlight prefs does not remove Safari History Items from Spotlight searches, what does? I like to turn off items in Spotlight that I can just as easily access from other programs, like mail messages in Mail, events in iCal, etc.

    PITA isn't it! AFAIK, they're webhistory, but can't be deleted from a search. If you want to report this issue to Apple's engineering, send a bug report or an enhancement request via its Bug Reporter system. To do this, join the Mac Developer Program—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report or enhancement request. The nice thing with this procedure is that you get a response and a follow-up number; thus, starting a dialog with engineering.
    Alternatively, you could delete the files in /Users/"username"/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari/History/ every so often and they won't show up.

  • How to remove the Page Item in thin Bean JSP

    Hi, I'm wondering how to remove the Page Item in JSP developed by BIBeans, since I have tried to remove the Presentation's Page Item in BiBeans Catalog, but with no result in JSP. Thank you!
    Jeff

    There are two ways to do this:
    1) If you want to remove and individual dimension from a presentation, you can hide the dimension. This can be performed directly from within QueryBuilder. Within the first section of Query Builder that shows the selected measures selected and associated dimensions, simply remove the required dimensions from the right dialog panel.
    2) To hide all page items within a presentation, simply add the following the property, pagingControlVisible="False", to the presentation tag in your JSP. For example:
    <orabi:Presentation location="Local Computer Sales/Products/KPI Sales Prior Period and Prior Year" id="BIProductKPIs_pres2" pagingControlVisible="False"/>
    Hope this helps

  • How to remove automatically launched items/apps?

    Sorry if this is a duplicate question.
    Actually i didn't find best answer for disabling items that automatically lauched when osx starting.
    I've been removed all startup items from login startup items (System Preferences - User & Groups - Login Items).
    Nothing found on StartupItems folder (Library - Startup Items) too.
    But some items still automatically launched on Mac start (such as Splashtop Streamer, Busycall).
    How to remove those startup items without completely uninstalling them?
    Any help would by appreciated.

    Those are system modifications, and if you want them to do what they do, they have to load at startup. If you don't like what they do, remove them according to the developer's instructions, or refer to the developer for support.

  • How to setup spotlight to ignore safari history item. I just want bookmarks

    Anybody know how to setup Spotlight so that when I do a search, it just finds bookmarks? I don't want all of the history items.
    Thanks to all who answer.

    You can check if you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize some prefs each time you start Firefox.
    The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created it, so normally it wouldn't be there.<br />
    You can check its content with a plain text editor if the file is there and you didn't create this file yourself.
    The user.js file is read each time you start Firefox and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    You can do a search for delta search pref on the <b>about:config</b> page and reset related user set (bold) prefs via the right-click context menu to the default value.

  • Deleting Safari History Items with Restrictions Set

    Hi All,
    My daughter's iPad mini has restrictions set to 'limit adult content'. One of the apparent benefits of this was the the 'Clear' button on Safari history and 'Private Browsing Mode' were disabled. I was then able to periodically audit the history to check nothing untoward. I could also temporarily remove restrictions to clear the history before re-enabling them.
    However, I have just noticed that if you swipe left on an item in history, you are given the option to delete - without removing Restrictions first.
    Is this expected behaviour or has a particular update caused this? Is there a setting to prevent history deletion?
    Many Thanks,

    You can clear just history on iOS 8, but there's no analogous easy way to do it in Yosemite.
    For Yosemite, to clear history manually, you must:
    Go to Safari's History -> Show History
    Click in the History window and Select All (Command-A or Edit -> Select All)
    Press "Delete"
    Note that due to cacheing and the fact that History may now be synced across devices via iCloud, you may need to repeat steps 2 and 3 multiple times before you delete all History items.
    For iOS 8, display History, tap "Clear" and choose the option you prefer.

  • Duplicate Safari History Items

    Hi,
    When somebody visits a page in Safari today, does it delete any duplicate items from before? I.e. if I visited exactly the same page yesterday morning, would Safari still show the history item in yesterday's history, or will it no longer be there being as there is a fresher instance/visit?
    Thanks very much!

    Thanks for the quick response. Just to clarify what I meant, here is why I am asking....
    I have been having an issue with my daughter viewing a particular page in Facebook. I saw it in the history on Sunday, then I visited it on Monday. When I revisited the Sunday history, the entry was gone. Is that possible if the page was exactly the same?! I asked my daughter if she had deleted that line of history, but she assures me that she doesn't know how to delete individual lines of history.
    Sorry, I know there is a whole separate issue here and people will no doubt have their 2 cents on parenting and trust, etc, but if my daughter knows how to delete part of the history I need to implement something else to prevent her from seeing content that I am not comfortable with.
    Thanks again.

  • How to recover safari history that has been cleared

    I have a 2012 iMac running Mavericks OSX 10.9.4 4GB 1333 MHZ
    I frequent a social network site that hosts photos, private mail conversations and blog discussions.
    I use an app " safari cache explorer" that will very quickly look at the cache files from the browser history and give me the option to view the line items as plain text, web page, or image. The plain text view is not really that readable so I would like any suggestion on how to convert that part to something more useful. The items that can be viewed as web pages are perfect and appear exactly as the did when I was on that webpage.
    Here is my problem. If the clear history function has been used in safari that explorer app has nothing to look at and sometimes I need to go back and find a preveiously viewed webpage. I am using time machine to backup to a Seagate backup plus drive and I have read at least several online discussions as well as everything on this community board on how to recover to recover to recover those files. There have been several  highly detailed explinations on how to accomplish this task but not one has worked.
    Is it possible to retrive the history.plist, cache plist or whatever is needed to see those web pages from a week or two ago in a manner that they are usable?
    If so what are the exact instructions on doing this task. A procedure that actually works would be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Safari/History.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Enter Time Machine and restore the selected item from a snapshot that predates the unwanted changes. Relaunch the application and test.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • How to recover safari history from time machine?

    Hi guys,
    I need your help ... I use time machine for the backup and I cancelled the history of Safari few days ago and now I need to recover it.
    Where and how can I find it among the time machine files?
    I have already read some suggestions in the web that told me to find it in the user/Library/Safari/History but I can't find any Safary folder in my Library :-(
    Many thanks in advance

    Triple-click the text on the line below to the clipboard, then copy it to the Clipboard (command-C):
    ~/Library/Safari/History.plist
    Quit Safari. Disable Safari synchronization in iCloud, if applicable.
    Select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the Finder menu bar. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A folder window should open with a file named "History.plist" selected. Restore the file from a backup that predates the unwanted changes. If you disabled sync, re-enable it and test.

  • How to remove update history

    I know how to stop the automatic updates but how do I remove or hide the history of every update?
    I.E "updated 23 October 2013", "updated 29 September 2013"
    Please help

    Hey,
    What update history do you mean?
    Do you mean the Windows update history?
    In your case I wouldnt delete it because in my opinion its important to know what updates are installed if an update causes a problem for example.
    I wouldnt delete, thats my personal opinion

  • How to remove Safari 6?

    I've installed Mountain Lion but it seems to have put Safari 6 onto my Mac.
    Safari 6 doesn't seem to support the fairly universally standard (it has been there since Netscape) 'delete' key to go back to the previous page and seems to be transmitting every webpage I enter to Google one char at a time. I'd rather keep my privacy and not change the way I work.
    Any ideas how Safari 6 can be deleted (and ideally replaced with the old version)? Do I need to uninstall Mountain Lion is there another way?
    Thanks

    Steve, you're going to have to do some research to comprehend how cookies work and how to control them. Here is some related information:
    1) Mac OS X 10.8.0 requires Safari as it is used for more than just a web browser by the system. Apple also doesn't want to have users strand themselves without a web browser.
    2) As Tuttle pointed out, you cannot go backward to an earlier version of Safari. 10.8 requires Safari 6.x.
    3) Every Google search in any browser means data is being sent to Google. Major DUH factor here. But using Google search does not equate to you being tracked via tracking cookies. Tracking cookies are specific to each website. Searching is a generic service not requiring cookies.
    4) Use the settings in the Privacy tab of the Safari Preferences. You'll see:
    - a) The button 'Remove All Website Data...' that kills off all cookies and tracking data.
    - b) The radio button for 'Block cookies From third parties and advertisers. Use it.
    - c) The radio button for 'Limit website access to location services....' The most private setting to use is 'Deny without prompting.'
    - d) Check ON the box for 'Website tracking: Ask websites not to track me". This is merely a gesture, but some humane websites and advertisers care and won't track you.
    - e) As Tuttle pointed out, check ON 'Web search: Prevent search engine from providing suggestions'. I personally don't see the point of worrying about this setting. But there it is.
    Here is a list of some security enhancing Safari extensions to use. You will have to do your homework discovering how they work and how to set them up. They can be very annoying to use. But the provide the privacy and security you require:
    Ghostery
    WOT (Web Of Trust)
    Incognito
    Do Not Track Plus
    AdBlock
    SafariCookies (The upgrade to the full Cookie app is well worth the price. It is IMHO the very best app for controlling cookies and other user surveillance data).
    ClickToFlash
    ClickToPlugin
    If you want to delve even deeper into personal web security, check out these Safari add-ons:
    JavaScriptBlacklist (which is kind of wimpy)
    JavaScript Blocker (which is so excellent that I paid for it. But it is a bit complicated to learn andcan be annoying to use.)
    Here is a great website where you can verify that Safari has excellent support for web standards. Compare the results with other web browsers and you'll be surprised:
