Recovering erased history on Safari

Hi,
Is there some way to recover the history of web sites visited after someone has cleared it through Safari>History>Clear History? Or some other way to view what web sites were visited and when. Thanks so much.

did you ever get an answer to your question? I'm also trying to retrieve my history.

    Is there a way to recover deleted history for Safari on an iPad2?

    If it was on your iPad when you last backed up then you can try restoring to that backup - you will need to restore the whole iPad, you can't just restore a single app. Otherwise no, you can't recover it

  • After installing IOS6: after erasing the history of Safari, the next time I fire up Safari, I see a split-second of the last displayed screen of Safari. Not a big issue but it should not be that way.

    Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean reinstall.
    Install the new version that you have downloaded.
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • HT201250 Is there a possibility to recover erased files from an external hard drive that was reformatted by the Time Machine?

    Is there a possibility to recover erased files from an external hard drive that was reformatted by the Time Machine?

    Basics of File Recovery
    Files in Trash
    If you simply put files in the Trash you can restore them by opening the Trash (left-click on the Trash icon) and drag the files from the Trash to your Desktop or other desired location.  OS X also provides a short-cut to undo the last item moved to the Trash -press COMMAND-Z.
    If you empty the Trash the files are gone. If a program does an immediate delete rather than moving files to the Trash, then the files are gone.  Recovery is possible but you must not allow any additional writes to the hard drive - shut it down. When files are deleted only the directory entries, not the files themselves, is modified. The space occupied by the files has been returned to the system as available for storage, but the files are still on the drive. Writing to the drive will then eventually overwrite the space once occupied by the deleted files in which case the files are lost permanently. Also if you save a file over an existing file of the same name, then the old file is overwritten and cannot be recovered.
    General File Recovery
    If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten by using recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro.  Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive.  Two free alternatives are Disk Drill and TestDisk.  Look for them and demos at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.
    The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.

  • Deleting facebook search history in Safari

    I'm not able to delete my facebook search history in Safari.  Can anyone help?  I've tried clearing history, cache, cookies, etc.
    Thank you!

    Ok...maybe preferences are corrupted...
    Go to ~/Library/Prerferences
    Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
    Quit then relaunch Safari, go to the menu bar click History > Clear History
    If that helped, move the .plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash. If not, just move it back to the Preferences folder.
    If you don't want history saved when you visit Facebook, go to the Safari menu bar click Safari > Private Browsing

  • Clear Google search history from Safari Toolbar (v.4.0.3 and up)

    How to clear your search history. TEDIOUS but works.
    *Delete Google results pages from the history*
    In Safari 4.0.3 and up, you may now search your history. Search for the URL string www.google.com/search? and delete the records that match it.
    *Clear the search strings from the toolbar*
    Quit Safari then from the Terminal, run this command:
    defaults delete com.apple.safari RecentSearchStrings
    When you start Safari again, the search history should be empty.
    Somebody could probably build a shell script that searches the History.plist XML file and deletes the <dict> sections AND resets the Safari plist at the same time. I'm not that good with string manipulation, so I'm hoping somebody with experience could pick this up. Then that shell script could be made into an AppleScript or set up with Automator. Wishful thinking?

    I just found the answer somewhere else in the forum - it worked for me.
    Clear it while in Safari by going to bookmarks, then "History," and then the "Clear" button in the bottom left.

  • Deleting part of history in Safari

    When using Safari, I find that I want to delete some items in my history (e.g. 5 items out of 10).
    Instead of clearing all history. How do I do this? Any help would be appreciated.
    Marta

    Dear Friends,
    Just by accident, I solved my own problem about deleting only part of my history in Safari. I clicked on “show all bookmarks,” then clicked on “history” and deleted only the items I wanted. To anyone who tried to help me with the answer, thank you but it won’t be necessary.
    Aloha,
