Is there a way to NOT allow Safari History to be cleared?

Is there a way to stop someone, "my children", from erasing the history of the websites they have been on so that I can monitor where they are on the web. I'm not so interested in parental controls because they limit so many places that they need to access. But I want to be able to monitor where they have been on the web.
Thanks

Wade, just a small word of advice. Depending upon the age of your kids, and the knowledge of computers, and i have a feeling it is relatively high. There is no long-term (a week is considered long term) solution to preventing your kids from surfing on the Internet. Parental controls can be easily bypassed, login passwords can be changed, individual cookies can be deleted along with sites, safari even now comes standard with a private browsing option, that doesn't even save the history or cookies, once they close the window, everything is gone, it isn't even erased because it simply never existed. I will tell you from experience, i just moved on to college, that there wasn't a student my age that didn't know how to get around thier parents' tricks. All routers can log history, they have range of how long, normally how many domain sites, but they can still log history. I simply ask you to consider, as a child, the respect you are wanting. It is much better to sit down, tell you kids you are able to monitor them, but you trust them and hope they will make good discussions. Remember that surfing on the web is better then being out at night, and you not knowing where they are. Your best option is probably simply having the computer in a public place. Ohh, and by the way don't tell them you "installed" a special application, they can simply look to see what currently running, check the memory and be able to tell if you are lieing. And if they catch you in a lie it doesn't matter what you caught them doing.

Is there a way to not allow an employee to send texts on the business iPhone using their personal iCloud account?

I work for a company that issues business iPhones to our sales representatives so that they can easily communicate with our customers in their territories and have access to many helpful resources.
One of our sales reps recently went on to work for a different company (our competition). When we were getting his company phone ready for the next representative that would take over his territory, we discovered that he had been using his iCloud account to text customers for the past 2-3 months instead of the phones number. Unfortunately this means he still has access to all of our customers via his personal iCloud account, and they are probably still texting him for their product needs.
We aren't sure if this was intentional or not, but is there anything we can do to keep things like this from happening in the future? A way to keep the sales rep from using their personal iCloud address to send and receive texts on the company phones?
Thanks!

Is there a way to not load images in safari? Like on android you can tick a box to load images or no to the internet?

Is there a way to not load images in safari on ios 7 like in android there is
The option to load or not load images?

My reply here was specific for this thread, but as you noted, I didn´t read careful enough. I wrongfully took for granted that issues in the More Like This box was platform dependent. I tried to apolgize accordingly, I would like to see the post deleted, but that doesn´t stop you from policing obviously.
And instead of arrogantly replying about matters irrelevant for this thread, maybe you should start reading more carefully yourself. The posts you are referring to are related to large images failing to load properly in Safari 7. This is not as you claim "vaguely related". Take this elsewhere if you have a problem with it.
Again, sorry for messing up the thread.

Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Using those instructions you may also be able to select PayPal if that is allowed in your country.

Is there a way of wiping ALL Safari data, i.e. restoring Safari ? I think my Safari has a virus..as every time I open it, a web page called 'search quick' comes up. Its bombarded my Safari with constant pop up adverts almost every time I click!

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem. You may have installed a variant of the "VSearch" ad-injection malware. Follow Apple Support's instructions to remove it.
If you have trouble following those instructions, see below.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. This procedure works as of now, as far as I know. It may not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.
The VSearch malware tries to hide itself by varying the names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming pattern.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/LaunchDaemons
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.
A folder named "LaunchDaemons" may open. Look inside it for two files with names of the form
          com.something.daemon.plist
and
           com.something.helper.plist
Here something is a variable string of characters, which can be different in each case. So far it has always been a string of letters without punctuation, such as "cloud," "dot," "highway," "submarine," or "trusteddownloads." Sometimes it's a meaningless string such as "e8dec5ae7fc75c28" rather than a word. Sometimes the string is "apple," and then you must be especially careful not to delete the wrong files, because many built-in OS X files have similar names.
If you find these files, leave the LaunchDaemons folder open, and open the following folder in the same way:
/Library/LaunchAgents
In this folder, there may be a file named
          com.something.agent.plist
where the string something is the same as before.
If you feel confident that you've identified the above files, back up all data, then drag just those three files—nothing else—to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Close the Finder windows and restart the computer.
Don't delete the "LaunchAgents" or "LaunchDaemons" folder or anything else inside either one.
The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you never reinstall it. You can stop here if you like, or you can remove two remaining components for the sake of completeness.
Open this folder:
/Library/Application Support
If it has a subfolder named just
           something
where something is the same string you saw before, drag that subfolder to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Application Support" folder or anything else inside it.
Finally, in this folder:
/System/Library/Frameworks
there may an item named exactly
            v.framework
It's actually a folder, though it has a different icon than usual. This item always has the above name; it doesn't vary. Drag it to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Frameworks" folder or anything else inside it.
If you didn't find the files or you're not sure about the identification, post what you found.
If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.
The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
          Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
          Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

Is there a way of not having to type in my password when i turn my macbook on?

Is there a way of not having to type in my password when i turn my macbook on? Can i turn this off in system Preferences?

Yes but that a bad idea.
System Preferences, Users and Groups, click the Lock Icon and type in your password, click on Login Options, then in Automatic login set it to your user name.
But as I said above that is a very bad idea. Anyone that turn on your computer would then be logged into your account, can read all your files and make changes to lock you out. Also in the duture when you may need to enter a password do do something you may forget what your password is.
Good Luck.

Is there a way of not displaying entries in the Blog based on today's date

Hi,
I'm using the Blog layout in iWeb for a calendar.
Somewhere in this discussion forum, I found how to sort the entries by increasing date (many thanks for that).
The question I have: Is there a way of not displaying entries in the Blog overview of which the date is in the past ?
Thanks

Hi Cyclosaurus,
the link you refer to (http://test.cyclosaurus.com/Site/Blog/Blog.html) seems to be broken. I can't see the script.
Can you sent me a script to automatically hide events from the past (based on today's system date) ?
please note that I use following script to reverse the summary (which i found in the discussion forum):
<script type='text/javascript'>
function reverseSummary() {
blogSummaryWidget = parent.document.getElementsByClassName('com-apple-iweb-widget-blogSummary flowDefining')[0].widget;
blogEntries = blogSummaryWidget.blogFeed.itemCount();
blogSummaryWidgetID = blogSummaryWidget.instanceID;
blogSummaryContentDiv = parent.document.getElementById(blogSummaryWidgetID + '-summary-content');
if (blogSummaryContentDiv.childNodes.length > 0) {
for (be=1; be<blogEntries; ++be) {
bi = (blogEntries - 1) - be;
blogSeparator = parent.document.getElementById(blogSummaryWidgetID + ('-separator-template$' + bi));
blogSummaryContentDiv.appendChild(blogSeparator);
blogEntry = parent.document.getElementById(blogSummaryWidgetID + ('-item$' + bi));
blogSummaryContentDiv.appendChild(blogEntry);
clearInterval(chkSummary);
chkSummary = setInterval('reverseSummary()', 1000);
</script>

My computer's default language is spanish. Is there any way i can change safari's language to english?

My computer's default language is spanish. Is there any way i can change safari's language to english?

Change your OS X language
Your Mac is set to display the language for the country in which you bought the computer. For example, if you bought your Mac in the United States, your Mac is set to English. If you bought your Mac in France, your Mac is set to French. But if you prefer to use a different language, you can.
If you bought your Mac in the U.S. but English isn't your preferred language,
you can switch the language via drag-and-drop.
Open System Preferences and click Language & Text.
Click the Language tab.
In the Languages pane, drag your preferred language to the top of the list.
To apply the language throughout your system, restart your Mac or log out and log back in.

Is there any way to not use the plugin container for firefox?

Is there any way to not use the plugin container for firefox? Ever since I updated, my firefox browser has been crashing almost every day and it always says that the plugin container crashed, but the rest of firefox freezes up as well, so I am forced to end the process itself.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins
You can set the prefs dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.* to false on the about:config page to disable the plugin-container process.
dom.ipc.plugins.enabled (currently false by default in Firefox 3.6.6)
dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npswf32.dll (Flash)
dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npctrl.dll (Silverlight)
dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npqtplugin.dll (QuickTime)

Is there a way to not display my name when I send text messages?

Is my name even sent when I send text messages? If so, is there a way to not display my name when I send text messages? When sending a text message, I would like to only display my phone number.

is it possible for the sender not to have my name in there contacts... and just typed my number?..
It is possible for the recipent not to have your name for your number in their address book for your contact info, but the recipent must do that.
So does that mean just my number will show when i send a text to the person using an android phone?
If the recipient does not have your name with your phone number in their address book for your contact info.
Have you ever received a text from a phone number that is not in your address book? If so, what do you see? You should see the phone number only. The same applies for someone you are sending a text to.
