Password protecting history and removal of private browsing

I am wondering if I can password protect the browsing history on this phone so it cannot be deleted without my permission. I would also like to remove or password protect the private browsing option... is this possible? Last of all can you hide or password the app store? I don't want to make addition users or lock up my entire phone just make it so it cannot be used inappropriately.

You probably have '''Automatically start Firefox in a Private Browsing session''' selected in the Privacy tab in Options. That will cause those Tools menu items to be greyed-out. And when using that Option the (Private Browsing) line doesn't show in the Titlebar.

Can I remove the "private browsing" option?

Is it possible to completely remove the private browsing option in Firefox? I don't like the idea of people in my family having access to all sorts of sites, undetected by anyone. If not I may have to remove Firefox completely and return to Internet Explorer. Any help on this would be good.

You could use the Menu Editor extension ([https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/menu-editor]) to remove the menu entry, but this is only of limited use. For example it does not prevent anybody from clearing the browsing history.
An alternative approach is to use a parental control program such as the free K9 web protection ([http://www.k9webprotection.com]). That program has its own log of sites visited, and you can use it to block access to categories of sites that you choose.

ICloud Password to Insert and Remove Account from your Mac with Mountain Lion for better Security

Hello
In fact I would put one in Schedule TIP for Apple, which would give greater security for users of the Mountain Lion operating system, or any other that supports iCloud.
Would putting an administrator password to remove the iCloud account from your computer, once again, that only with her that if you can find the mac, alert by Find My Mac
Otherwise, anyone who steals your mac, or act in bad faith, it can handle, and remove or simply log off from your account iCloud, and beyond what I think most serious, which is losing function of my Search Mac, and contact settings, calendar, among others.
As with the iPhone, iPad, iPod .... RESTRICTIONS have the option, which many users do not use because they do not know, more is NOT a function that allows a thief eg delete your iCloud account from your device when you turn to that does not allow changes to Accounts and Location.
That it should have, or simply their own password to enter, and REMOVE the computer. What would bring much greater security for us users. This all in both IOS and in OS X. All to remove your iCloud account password needed.
Or creating a menu PRIVACY, you chose for which adjustments or applications, you'd want it to be password request, the type for Mail or Skype, although the computer is personal, but there is that possibility of someone picks open it and move on that should not.
I ask that Apple is to sensitize the issue, and we help users to develop a system better and safer.

I want to remove the Private Browsing function as a Parental Control step. How?

I don't want my child hiding things from me. How do I block or remove the Private Browsing functionality?

You wouldn't be able to do it as long as the user has access to [[Profile folder]], lack of which makes Firefox not able to work - the user would be able to delete any data. Even prior to private browsing feature, history was clear-able in ''Tools'' - '' Clear recent history'' window.
To have more control, you can block some websites/ports in the router or firewall, the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4351/ FoxFilter] add-on can be helpful (but again, the users can simply un-install it).

HT201304 how can i disable or remove the private browsing in safari on my childs iphone

how can i disable or remove the private browsing in safari on my childs iphone

By voiding your warranty and hacking it. There may be other fixes though. Try resetting network settings in settings>general>reset. If that doesn't work try a hard reset. If that doesn't work then backup, restore as new, then from backup

My E pad has stopped directing me to my att/yahoo e mail. It gives me a notice that i must go to Settings, Safrai and turn off Private Browsing. I have tried for 2 days to find private browsing on my safrai site, and it is just not there.

Forsome reason, after two years, my E Pad is refusing to go to my att.Yahoo e mail...It says to go to Settings Safari Private Browsing and turn off Private Browsing. There is not place on the Safrari page that gives me Private Browsing. It explains it as being dark when turned on, but no place to turn it on or off. Also it seems to go to Yahoo Mail instead of Att..Yahoo when it gives me the above message....Any One know what todo?

As of iOS 7, private browsing is not longer handled in the Settings app, but in Safari directly. The only Settings function for Safari that may impact this would be Block cookies.
Private browsing is turned on and off in Safari using the button in teh lower left of the Safari screen (if you do not see this, tap the + icon in the upper right to pull up an empty tab).

My frontier email account won't let sign in. It tells me to go to setting -safari and turn off "private browsing". Where do I find "private browsing"?

My frontier email will not let me sign on. I get a message telling me to go to settings> safari > and turn off " private browsing." How do I find " private browsing" under safari in the settings area?

Close all windows in Safari.
Now you can see the word 'Private' on the bottom left of screen.

I try to log in to password protected sites and nothing happens but works fine on Internet Explorer. Can't get past login page. I even had to use Internet Explorer to login to ask this question!

On the page where you enter username and password after entering and pressing "Log in" the page just stays in place. If you look at the error log you see
"Warning: Unknown property 'border-radius'. Declaration dropped.

Make sure that you do not block the referrer.

Also make sure that you do not block cookies in Firefox or the firewall.

Password protect files and folders Creative Cloud Files

I know this feature has been requested a number of times, but I'm just wondering if anyone knows whether or not the ability to password protect files and folders for sharing purposes is in the works? It appears to be a glaring omission to me, particularly as Adobe's vision for the Creative Cloud encompasses the corporate world, where security is obviously of great importance.
Any news would be welcome.
Best regards

I would like to disable or remove the private browsing feature permanently, and set up a password to disallow it to be added back onto the program

This feature was not on the older versions of firefox, if it is not possible to remove it - is it possible to revert back to the older versions without disrupting browsing capabilities? This is a severe problem that needs to be resolved by your program, or I will not be able to use your software going forward!! Please help! Thank you!

It has been a part of Firefox for over two years now, as of Firefox 3.5.
Try this new add-on to disable Private Browsing, prevent browsing history from being deleted, and the hide the presence of this add-on from being seen by users except in the SafeMode. <br />

Why is my saved Facebook password not used when both "Permanent Private Browsing" and "Remember Passwords for Sites" are enabled?

After entering and saving my Facebook user name and password, the data is not used for subsequent entries into the application after the browser is reset. "Remember Passwords for Sites" is checked, but the data is only used if I do NOT have "Permanent Private Browsing enabled. Why does "Permanent Private Browsing" effect passwords? (Note: Facebook is NOT in the "Passwords / Exceptions..." list.)

I agree that password protection may be considered important by some for Private Browsing, however if that is the intention, then it would be one of the delineated items such as...remember browser history, remember download history, etc. that are check-listed under that function. Also, having a separate Passwords option implies that their functions are mutually exclusive and therefore should function independent of one another.
Thanks for your response.

How do you disable / remove / block private browsing in ios 8

I want to disable / block / remove private browsing from my iPhone 5 on iOS 8.1.2. I heard from a friend that you can type in a password somewhere in settings to do this which would be ideal. Any help would be much appreciated!

It took a while I had to follow a hunch. Go to settings> general> restrictions> set a restriction passcode and write it down> scroll down to websites> limit adult sites> on. Besides blocking private you can't erase Safari history when you have websites resrictions. See before and after below.

Password protected site and gallery: no go

Hi,
i'm trying to publish a password protected site to mobileme. The site will contain links to mobileme galleries (password protected too).
first issue: i can't add a protected gallerie to iweb, iweb doesn't show it. After removing the protection ("visible to everone") it works. After setting up the site, i turned on the protection again.
Now my browser ask for the password for every gallery on the page (it's the same user and password for every gallery and the site).
I don't think, that my visitors will like that...
Michael

Password Protect History in Safari

Is there a way to protect someone from deleting the history in my Safari browser with a password?

Welcome to Apple Discussions and Aloha from Big Island.
There is no password protection for History. The best you can do is not allow others to access Safari via your User Account. The alternative is creating another User Account. There, you can impose Parental Controls if you want to place restrictions on what others can or cannot do while browsing (for example limiting browsing to specific sites). More information about Parental Controls may be found in Safari Help (apple key + ? ) or accessed via the Help menu.

For Macs you need to configure NetStorage to set Cookieless mode to 1 -
in iManager this is under File Access (NetStorage) > NetStorage Options.
Be aware that setting that may (un)set some of the other values so you
may need to (re)set those too.
To get contextless logins working you should already have the server's
context listed under the IP address of the server at File Access
(NetStorage) > Authentication Domains. If so, you should be able to
then add each additional context via Add Context. Unfortunately there's
no way to add a bunch in bulk.
As for Windows 7, you need to map a network drive as per Microsoft KB
