How to stop safari on ios7 from remembering history?

How to stop safari on ios7 from remembering history?
I hate to continually delete my history. Is there a way to stop it or set it to delete it on its own every day?

Hey Bigchins!
I have an article here that can address your question for you. The feature you are looking for is called private browsing, and it is explained here:
To enable or disable Private Browsing, turn Private Browsing on or off.
Private Browsing in iOS 5 protects private information and blocks some websites from tracking your behavior. Safari doesn't remember the pages you visit, your search history, or your AutoFill information.
Note: While Private Browsing is enabled, the Safari bars appear black or dark instead of blue or gray.

Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

  • How to stop safari on iPad from opening tabs

    When browsing, Safari opens new tabs unexpectedly when I do not want a new tab.  I end up with many tabs, often more than a dozen, open unnecessarily.
    Is there a way to control or stop Safari from opening volumes of tabs?  Under what conditions does it open new tabs?

    Sorry, you can't. Tabs came with iOS5 I believe. Best you can do is manage them and close extras as they pop up.

  • How to stop the tab bar from automatically hiding itself?

    ive only found how to stop the address bar from disappearing and everyone with the tab problem seems to have posted this over a week ago and still hasnt been fixed yet if noone has a fix im out and done with firefox they can suck a fat one
    why add this feature! i can understand the address bar but not the tabs all you have to do to hide it was push the tab button again and its gone was that so fucking hard that you had ruin a perfectly fine browser

    Hello,
    In Firefox 23, as part of an effort to simplify the Firefox options set and facilitate future improvements to Firefox, the option to hide the tab bar was removed.
    Fortunately, this can easily be resolved if you desire the keep tabs hidden. You can install "[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/hide-tab-bar-with-one-tab/ Hide tab bar with one tab]", an extension hosted on Mozilla's add-ons site, which will restore the ability to hide the tab bar.
    Thank you and I hope this helps!

  • How to stop the option key from changing tools when trying to subtract from a selection?

    How to stop the option key from changing my tools when I am trying to subtract from a selection?
    I'm running CS3 on Mac OS Leopard, and the automatic tool switching slows me down, but even preferences doesn't show a way to turn this off.
    Thanks for your help.

    With any marquee tool, JUST holding down the option key should not switch tools. You need to explain the problem much more carefully, It's completely impossible to tell from your description whats going wrong.
    automatic tool switching
    The only preference related to this, is to do with the SHIFT KEY - "use Shift key for tool switch".

    Make sure to quit all open applications before logging out.
    Your proflie indicates your Mac has v10.7.1 installed.
    If that is the case, updating your system software will help as far as functionaly as well as security.
    Install the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo)
    Then restart your Mac.

    Anyone know how to stop the "activate" box from blocking usage of a perfectly legal copy of Ilisten? I want to help my dyslexic grandson and this box, including the activation code, keeps popping up, keeping me from using the software. I activated the program and did a few profile building sessions, now it pops up each time I start the program, blocking me from using it. Help sure would be appreciated.
    Jay

    I looked at your post this morning and did not know enough to respond, other than to find out that links to iListen now go to newer, renamed software. Considering it's been nine hours with no response, I'm suspecting few people here have experience with that software. You could contact the current copmany that used to sell that package and see if they have any archived support info.
    BTW: please check you entry for "Mac OS" in your profile. It says iOS, which cannot run on an iMac. iOS is the system for phone and iPads but can't run on Mac computers. Do "About this Mac" from the Apple menu and see what it says about the OS version. Should look like this:
    If the "Processor" line says "Intel," you have a newer Mac than the old modles this forum covers; Intel iMac have their very own forum here:

  • How to stop Adobe Flash plugin from repeatedly crashing Firefox?

    How to stop Adobe Flash plugin from repeatedly crashing Firefox?

    yeah, having the same problem.
    Hulu is working on my internet explorer 8, tho... Interesting thing is that it detected I didn't have the 10.1 version of adobe flash player even though I just downloaded that on firefox. So MAYBE the problem is between firefox and adobe. Just a guess

  • Anyone any advice on how to stop my mail "activity" from continuously caching? is this a problem? I have had inbox issues recently that are not resolved yet but I am not sure if they are related.

    Anyone any advice on how to stop my mail "activity" from continuously caching? is this a problem? I have had inbox issues recently that are not resolved yet but I am not sure if they are related.

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is corrupt and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • How to stop Safari from realoading page and worst, start at the TOP?

    When clicking something, for example an article in an online newspaper, after reading, when you scroll back to the newspaper, Safari reloads and starts at the TOP of the page. This drives me crazy, and I have to work hard to figure out were I was in the very long frontpage of the online newspaper. Please help!
    PS! Opera DOES NOT do this. So I want Safari to behave like Opera :-)
    But Opera is not as good on a Mac as on a PC (I tried), so I have to use Safari, and therefore needs to figure this out.
    Please help! :-)

    This Apple-forum we now are using are a great example of the how totally useless Safari is.
    I tried to find answer for my question, and pressed "more" at the bottom of the page, and then "more" again and again until I found something interesting i want to read. So I was a bit down in the forum frontpage. Opened the forum-post, read and used mouse gestures to get back to the forum.
    Safari reloaded and startet at the top of the page, so now I must scroll down and press "more", scroll down again and press "more" again, scroll and press "more" and then once again, just to get where I was in the first place!!!
    Well, I am speachless. If this problem is unsolvable, I have no other choice than find another browser to use. This is just too stupid and it drives me crazy!
    So, you kind people out there, this is really an emergency.
    And if Apple-staff are reading this, well, you now know what you have to do, fix it immediately!

  • How to stop safari via web process?

    How do I remove or disable specific Safari WebProcesses?
    For example, it seems that WebProcess is sending information out to doubleclick.net and parsely.com, which are adtracking/marketing services.   I want to remove or block these while allowing others, such a calls to apple.com, to remain active.
    I've deleted the Safari cookies, emptied my history, and cleared my Safari cache, but they're still running as shown in the Little Snitch Network Monitor.
    Is there a file somewhere in my Mac that I need to edit to stop these network submissions from happening?
    I am not able to use any other browsers even firefox and google chrome...
    Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to www.google.com
    Try reloading the page

    Download and install Ghostery to prevent tracker cookies from sites like DoubleClick.

  • How to stop CCME hunt pilot from registering to GK

    Hi ,
    Scenario is this
    I have a hunt pilot setup in CCME of 3000 as per below
    ephone-hunt 1 sequential
    pilot 3000
    list 2000789, 2001787
    final 2000123
    When I go to GK I seee that it has registered as an E.164 how do I negate 3000 from registering with GK?
    ON GK we have E164-ID: 3000
    There is no "no-reg" option when configuring the ephone-hunt
    I have no issues with other CCME E.164 registrations going to GK and If we want to stop them registering we can do no-reg on the ephone-dn's
    In summary how do we stop a hunt pilot from registering is it possible?
    Thanks

    The option is actually under the ephone-hunt, not directly at pilot, I forgot exactly what it is, but belive it's somthing like this:
    pilot 3000
    list 2000789, 2001787
    final 2000123
    no-reg
    You might need to reboot the CME after you make this change, somtimes it does not automatically take affect even after doing "no gateway", "gateway" on CME
