Privacy Browsing on, web history auto-fills into new tab URL field

Even with Privacy Browsing on, when I go to open a new tab and then start typing in the URL field of the new tab, it tries to auto-fill or offer up a list of previously visited websited, ones only visited with the Privacy Browsing on.
How do I clear those and prevent them from appearing?
Thanks

Hi, Peter.
Well, again, the issue was reported with Chrome, so I'd use that to test. (IE might 'fill' the form in a way that ADF can detect it, whereas Chrome may fill the form in a way that ADF doens't sense it.) With Chrome, (using an address as the example), you'd go to the street address field, and Chrome would display a drop-down list of saved addresses. (You can set up the addresses in the settings page that I described above.) Once you pick from one of the addresses, it would fill in ALL of the address fields (e.g. street address, city, state, zip) for you. It is these other 'auto-filled' fields that ADF doesn't sense have anything in them.
I'll see if I can put together a simple ADF project and instructions for how to reproduce using Chrome....
Thanks,
Karl

  • I have a acrobat reader, can I import text delimited data format to a PDF Form so that it can auto fill into forms that was created? If not, what about FDF and XML data

    I have a acrobat reader, can I import text delimited data format to a PDF Form so that it can auto fill into forms that was created? If not, what about FDF and XML data

    Yes, you can do all of that via Tools - Forms - More Form Options - Import Data, if you have Acrobat.
    If you only have the free Reader then you can still do it, but it requires a script.

  • I upgraded an lost all my links and tools -- no auto fill, no direct tab to google email news etc.

    I no longer have an icon for auto fill, email, news -- I have to put a search in the web browser window to get to my gmail account (terribly frustrating and time consuming) or a search to get to google news. And I have to fill all forms again and again.

    what a pain! However, the solution is to simply install the Add-On "Autofill Forms". I'm not certain why Mozilla didn't automatically install the add-on as most of us rely on this feature. It's definitely not a good enough reason to uninstall and reinstall an earlier version and this version has some neat features

  • All my tabs turned into new tabs all of a sudden.

    Sometimes all of my tabs suddenly turn into new tabs, this happens when I've previously closed the window page and then reopened it. How can I get all my tabs back?

    Do you mean that APP tabs are changed to normal tabs?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js [3] files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • Firefox freezes when I load new pages into new tabs. This started a few weeks ago after I downloaded the latest update to firefox, currently running 7.0.1

    After installing the latest update to Firefox a couple of weeks ago, loading new pages into new tabs takes a very very long time IF the page loads at all. I usually have to close the original tab to get the new tabs to load their pages. Sometimes I have to close all Firefox windows and start over to get the page I want to load.
    This only started after downloading and installing this new update. I had no problem with new pages/tabs with previous versions.
    I have rebooted, run full scans with Spyware Doctor, Malwarebytes and McAfee without solving the problem.

  • Updated Firefox to 32.0 and now e-mail links put browser in front but do not open new tab or link!

    Just that. Firefox comes to front of desktop, but neither new tab nor the link open.
    This has always worked just fine, before this update today.
    I am on a Mac running 10.6.8.
    Thank you for your help!

  • Can't drag bookmarks into new tab page

    Every time I try to drag and drop a bookmark into the new tab page, it opens the web page in that tab instead of adding it to the square. I've tried it on safe mode as well with the same results. Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong would be appreciated.

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.

  • When using tabbed browsing, if I click to open a new tab, why will it not automatically load my homepage in the new tab instead of a blank window?

    I use tabbed browsing with the tab bar visible at all times so I can click on a new tab when convenient.Why can my homepage not load automatically on that newly opened tab insted of a blank screen with a search bar saying "you've opened a new tab".........well yeah. I have looked through the options and cannot find anything to open a new tab with the homepage. Is it possible? Have I missed it? If it's not possible, could you make it so?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I opened a new tab.....see above

    The default is to load a blank page.

  • How do I force Safari history to open in new tab instead of reusing current

    By default, Safari reuses the current tab when opening the history results, which forces a reload of that page when history is closed. Is there a way to force history to open in a new tab of its own?

    Is there any way to make this the default behavior without relying on a modifier key?

  • I am running 3.6.12 and my new tab and/or window actions are the same. How can i open new links within apps into new tabs?

    I used to be able to control new tab actions such as opening on top of current tab or in a new tab. This is frustrating as i always cover up where I am or was! How can this be corrected so I can open a new tab in a new tab? I am enrolled in an on-line class and can not open tabs in a new tab as needed as it always places the new tab on top of teh current or old tab.
    Funny as i use to complain about opening in new windows!
    I am missing how to control new tabs and new window actions?
    THanks,
    William

    Do you have any tab related extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) that allow to divert links?<br />

  • I restored my most used sites page through troubleshooting but then downloaded stylish and the alt. browser came back when i open a new tab. Help?

    I downloaded some dodgy software and having cleared it up it seems to have installed an alternative browser (delta?) and toolbar to my firefox. I've uninstalled the toolbar, but when i open a new tab, instead of my most used pages, it came up with the delta browser. So I followed the instructions on here and troubleshooted and restored the default settings of firefox. This worked until I re-installed the add on Stylish to customise webpages, and now it seems to have come back. Having uninstalled stylish it hasn't changed. Can i not use stylish now, or is there a way of my completely getting rid of this delta, enabling me to use the add on as before?

  • I want my downloads to auto open in new tab

    When I download a photo, pdf, or document from the web, with Internet Explorer it opened immediately in a new tab; with firefox it is sent to a download window. I then must navigate to it, click on the download to open it - extra steps when I'm trying to get work done. In many cases my pdf's are not saved to this file as a pdf., the only work around to get the file to open is to navigate to the containing folder, and change the file extension to a pdf and then open it.

    I should have specified that the pdf's are downloading as ".aspx" files

  • Firefox is my default browser, yet Bing appears when opening a new tab. How can I stop this?

    I have set Firefox as my default browser with Google as my default search engine. I have eliminated Bing from the drop-down list in Firefox of alternate engines. However, when I am browsing and open a new tab, the Bing search window page appears. Google is still in the search line at the top of the page.
    I want Google to be the search engine that appears, not Bing.

    Try setting your home page to Google.
    * Go to your Firefox preferences: Tools -> Options
    * Click on the General tab
    * In the "Home Page" box, type in "http://www.google.com"
    * Press OK
