Ipad search history & spotlight

Why won't my email "to,from&subject" fields erase from the ipad search history area. After resetting, using "erase all contents&settings"- all the emails are gone. Why not the headers?

Restored thru iTunes as new ipad on the COMPUTER solved the problem.

IPad Search History displaying on other devices

My husband informed me that his browser history on his Galaxy S4 is showing what I searched for on my iPad. We do use the same wifi at home, but how do I stop it? He informed me after Christmas (he knew what I searched for for his Christmas presents!).

Yes, he showed me this morning an example, my daughter has a different apple ID, and I purchased extra storage for icloud, so I wanted to see if I could use that icloud account with my apple ID so I didn't have to purchase extra storage on two devices, I searched it last night, this morning he asked me if I found my answer about apple ID vs Icloud ID...I never told him I was looking it up (nor does he know what an apple or icloud ID is!)

Erase a document or email from ipad search

I have an email that I sent to my tax accountant. I want to delete it from my Ipad Search history. I have deleted it from my email but when I search the ipad it still comes up. How do I delete this so that it cannot be searched on my ipad?

You can't delete that from the cache in the SpotLight search. You can restore your iPad as new and start all over again. Other wise, you can't delete that from the search.
Just for the heck of it, tap on it when it shows up in the search and see if that actual email still shows up. The email itself should not show up if it has been deleted from the server.

How to Delete Messages in Spotlight Search History without Resetting or Syncing!!

I know there are a lot of individuals dealing with this issue and if you are like me you spend hours searching "how to delete messages in spotlight search history" and it seems like every post either says to reset your phone or sync it! I'm sorry but I did not want to go through the hassle of resetting my phone but I did try to sync it which did nothing so I decided to just mess around with my settings and I believe to have found the answer to everyone's question!!
This worked for me so I really hope this works for you! Just follow the steps below:
1. Go to <settings><general><spotlight search><uncheck messages>
2. Then turn your phone off and wait a minute! Turn your phone back on and off again 2 or 3 more times while waiting a minute in between turning it off!
3. After you are done doing that go back to step 1 and <check messages>!
4. Now go to your spotlight search and those messages should be deleted! If they are deleted I would recommend going back to step 1 and <uncheck messages> so you do not have the same problem with messages showing up again in the spotlight search!
It works for Mail too! Just follow the same steps listed above but uncheck mail instead of messages or do both at the same time!!
*Here is an extra tip which will remove deleted Mail Messages, just follow the steps below:
1. Go to <settings><mail, contacts, calendars><your mail account> scroll down and click <advanced> Now click <remove> under the title Deleted Messages and you can choose to have your mail removed After One Day, After One Week, After One Month or Never.
I hope this post was detailed enough and easy to understand!
I really hope it works for you like it did for me!
Good Luck!!!

I tried this fix and it does not work.
I have read that this is a problem for a long time - years. Me, personally, I do have emails and texts from the past that are private and were deleted, that I do not want my husband or daughter to read. Many people have this complaint and have had it a long time. Why does Apple not fix it?!?
Another privacy issue is the iMessage default settings on new devices. We bought a new iPhone for my college-age daughter and received all of her text messages until we noticed it and told her. We did a temporary fix. Then I got a new iPhone and the same thing happened. I had to set up iCloud accts. for each of us so that we each have privacy that cannot be tampered with. We still share our original iTunes account. Why did that have to happen?!?
We have been Apple consumers (laptops, iPads, iPods, iPhones) for over ten years (? longer w/just desk top) w/ the same account. These breaches in privacy are upsetting!! My point here is that these breaches are unacceptable! The spotlight search issue appears to be unresolved. FIX THIS APPLE!

I'd like to clear search history in Mac Mail. How do I clear this history?

In Safari, use the open book symbol to go to bookmarks. At the top of the list is "History", tap history and then tap the clear button on the bottom left of the screen. That clears the search history as well.

How can I get rid of "History and Bookmarks" section from the search history drop down menu in safari 6.0.2?

Let's just say I have saved bookmarks of things that i do NOT want my friends to see when they use my computer occasionally. I know they could go and find these bookmarks anyway in the bookmarks menu but they dont snoop around my computer. i would rather it not just pop up when they go to search for something or type in a webpage. If there is no way to customize what shows up in the drop down menu for search results then that is something apple overlooked. Not everybody wants things all in one place. Whats the point of deleting search history and website history if its just going to show the certain things you have bookmarked? Any solution to this would be appreciated. One solution i thought would work was disabling search from suggesting, but i guess that only supresses the webpages not the url/search bar. Oh and this is for safari 6.0.2 please dont give me outdated advice.
Thanks

I am unable to search my history in the Search History feature as when i type a term the history list goes blank labeling "no items." Is there a reason for this and a way i can search my history to find specific sites and content??

When i try to search for specific sites whether to find something or group together a list of sites from the same site, etc, after i type in a term in the Search History box, nothing appears. When i click the empty area it says "no item selected" at the bottom. However i can still search my bookmarks. Just wondering if there's a way to fix this.

It seems to have worked itself out. Thanks anyway!

The "Clear Search History" feature in the upper right drop-down menu no longer works in Firefox 4.

The "Clear Search History" feature in the upper right drop-down menu that shows search terms no longer seems to work in Firefox 4.

It is possible that there is a problem with the file that stores the "Saved Form" data.<br />
Rename or delete formhistory.sqlite (plus formhistory.sqlite-journal and formhistory.sqlite.corrupt and formhistory.dat, if they exist) in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] in case there is a problem with the file that stores the "Saved Form" data.<br />
This will remove all saved form data, so you may want to rename formhistory.sqlite to formhistory.sqlite.sav or move the file to another folder in case you need to recover some saved data.
You may also need to delete search.sqlite and search.json in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]

Yosemite: Saved search from Spotlight does not work the same

Hi,
I have various Logic Pro folders throughout my computer and want to create a Saved Search that brings all and only the Logic project files together into one place.
There's a couple of catches: the Logic file extension has changed over the years with the various application updates.
It would be nice to create a Smart Folder/Saved Search with something like File Extension:logic OR File Extension:logicx OR File Extension:lso
However if you just add these search criteria as separate lines, it appears they are "AND" filters so nothing shows up at all.
I seem to remember older versions of Smart Folders allowing you to have much more control over boolean search parameters.
After a bit of online investigation I discovered that you can do some more complex searches using Spotlight and then save it as a Smart Folder or Saved Search.
In Spotlight I used:
Kind:Logic -.0 -(crashed) -.cst -.pst -.prf -.patch -.logikcs
This cleaned out all the extra unneeded files and backups that are associated with Logic and just displayed only my desired .logic, logicx and .lso files.
Awesome! Then I saved it as a Saved Search in the sidebar.
Which doesn't work. Or at least the extra flags don't work. All I am seeing is the Kind:Logic again.
This is how the Spotlight search translates across into the Saved Search window (I can scroll across to see the extra flags). Any good ideas or workable solutions? Thx!

fromObject in the code above is a key (String) that I retrieve from the OrderedHashtable and clone it using the code above.No. How could that code possibly clone a String? Where are you telling it what the new String's contents should be?
(HINT: Nowhere.)
I guess there is a work around where I can check if the cloneClass is an Instance of String and just do fromObject.toString(), but I was curious to know if there was a change in the way class.newInstance() works in Java 1.5No, it has not changed.
