Restoring safari history on the ipad

My son is deleting his safari history, and I am wondering how to view the safari history after it has been deleted.

There is no way to stop clearing history in Safari/iPad at present.
Try Kidsafe browsers.
Best.

  • Safari History on the iPad

    How do I restrict my child from deleting the Safari History, he usually deletes the History and then I never know what exacly he is looking at. I don't want to set too many restrictions, and not be as controlling, but would still like to know what pages he looks at. But he always deletes his History. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Where did you see a "Parental Control Settings pane"?
    The only parental control that I am aware of is the Restrictions part.
    You can - for example - restrict the use of certain apps, installation/deletion of apps, in-app purchases, etc.
    You can also restrict the use of certain websites or define your own restricted websites.
    If your child wants to visit a certain website, he would have to ask your permission.
    BTW, if you restrict Websites > Specific Websites Only = On, then the history cannot be cleared anymore, except by the person who knows the Restrictions passcode. This feature could be of interest to you, but your child would then literally be limited to visit certain websites of your personal choice only.
    Anyway, if you don't want to restrict the Clear History function, then I can't think of another solution right now.
    Make sure you don't forget your Restrictions passcode, otherwise you have to restore the iPad.

  • Does the safari app on the iPad mini crashes a lot running on iOS7?

    does the safari app on the iPad mini crashes a lot running on iOS7? Because my dad's ipad mini safari app crashes alot.

    Try closing all apps in Multitask Window
    1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
    2. Swipe up on the screenshot of the app you want to exit.
    3. The app will fly off the screen

  • HT204088 Why can't I see the purchase history from the ipad? I mean, I can buy apps and in game content directly from my iPad, but I have have to install iTunes on my PC to see the purchase history? What kind of deal is that?

    Welcome to Apple Communities
    You don't need to install iTunes for the purchase history. You can see it in your iPad (iTunes > Purchased), but you need to install it if you want the order numbers

  • Only the safari element of the ipad has locked up, how do i restart

    I purchased my IPad 2 early August 2011 and it has developed a problem. All elements of the iPad are OK other than the SAFARI bit which has "locked up". How do I re-start?, any ideas anyone?

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (and Clear History)
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Restore Safari History Help!

    I have tried to restore a previous Safari history from my Time Machine backup by replacing the history.plist file in my home folder ~Library/Safari/history.plist. I quit Safari, replace the file from my Time Machine backup and even log out and log back in. However, when I restart Safari (v.3.2.1) my old history isn't there! Any suggestions?

    The file I was restoring did contain the earlier history file. It turns out that the problem was that my Safari preferences (under the "General" tab) were set to remove history items after one month. When trying to restore history older than a month, they were being automatically deleted by Safari! Problem solved with a bit of help from Apple Technical Support.
    I would recommend that anyone who is trying to restore an old Safari browser history from a Time Machine backup add one additional step - set Safari 'remove history items' preference to 'manually' before quitting Safari. Then restoring the older history.plist file to the ~user/library/Safari folder and restarting Safari will restore the older history files. Worked for me.

  • How do I block you tube page in the Safari browser in the ipad

    My son is 12 and uses the iPad in your school to be endorsed with their subjects and study. however, I can not block you tube in Safari lest they see inappropriate videos.

    You can go to the settings app then pick General then pick restrictions. I did not see a direct way to restrict just YouTube and not turn Safari as well. There are some options based on ratings that my help you keep them away from some of the worst of the videos.

    What if you have a situation where Restore did not work. I do. The ipad mini says it is disabled, connect to itunes. When connected, it says that it is locked! I have tried using Recovery/Restore but after it completed, the ipad mini still malfunctions. It does not allow you to start the device. The slide image keeps dancing around the screen. The opening page keeps changing in size and the keyboard types on its own! What can be done to fix this????????

    Maybe a reset would help, to be followed by trying the recovery again.
    To reset, hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.  Then do the recovery.
    If this doesn't solve it, I recommend visiting an Authorized Apple Service Center.

  • The iOS 8.1.2 update bricked my 4th gen iPad. I can't even do a DFU mode restore - error 4013. The iPad worked perfectly before the update and is 16 months old. Any suggestions anyone - except to shout loudly at the Apple support line?

    I set my iPad to do the latest iOS update as per usual - over the air and while on charge. When I returned to it, it was non functional the screen was blank. I reset multiple times and at one point got a red screen. I connected it to iTunes on my Mac and tried to force a restore, but this didn't work - even in DFU mode. I have gotten a 4013 error every time. I've tried different cables and different USB ports etc, but no success. It's a brick.

    I have multiple Macs around the house and have tried all of them - all with the same results alas. I've restarted, ensured iTunes is up to date etc too.
    On DFU mode - yes - that's it. I have no idea what DFU stands for, but it this mode is often referred to as this. I get the 'connect to iTunes' picture and can begin the restore, but the process times out waiting for the iPad. Apparently, 4013 is associated with a cable problem,, but I know the hardware is all fine.
    What I want to avoid is just being told to buy another iPad. That would be totally unacceptable for an error caused by an update to a 16 month old device. There has to be some solution!

  • Why does safari hang on the ipad 3 ios 5.1.1

    I got the ipad3 about a month ago and Ive noticed that safari hangs all the time. At first I thought it was the network but after using it at a friends house and using it on 4g. When it hangs the whole ipad locks up and is non responsive to landscape changes. I find i have to reset it daily. Anyone have this going on.

    I'm not sure where I would start with trying to isolate the app. I would just launch one app at a time, use Safari see what happens, then launch another app, use Safari .... rinse and repeat. I would probably pay attention to other apps that depend on an internet connection, but so many apps do, so you will just have to be patient and diligent in your approach.
    If you can't ultimately get this situation straightened out, you might want to make an appointment at a Genius Bar and have an Apple rep take a look at your iPad as well.

  • Synching Safari bookmarks on the iPad

    Hi, I am not sure how to do this, hence my post here. I would like to have safari's bookmarks to be the same on my mac and on my ipad. I have the bookmarks option on icloud selected but the ipad still has its own set of bookmarks. Is there a way to force update it?
    Thanks in advance!

    There is really no setting to change on the iPad. Have you tied another browser on the iPad? IThe background shows on my iPad with the Opera Mini (free) browser.

  • Potential safari extensions on the ipad

    I've hit a real functional road block with the iPad not supporting applications being able to choose files and upload them. I understand the security model but I'm wondering if someone knows enough about the interface libraries and extensions to tell me if my idea would be feasible.
    Would it be possible to add an extension to Safari, so that the file chooser buttons for uploading would be enabled. Rather then browsing a file system, the extension would query installed apps for the files they manage. The application could then select the application and get access to upload the file.
    Before I go through the effort to figure this out, I was hoping someone could make sure im on the right track.

  • How can I restore my photos if the iPad and my lap top back up have been erased to correct a problem?

    How can I retrieve my photos if my iPad was scrubbed to correct a sign-on problem? The "genius" at the Apple Store suggested I erase my back up as well as my iPad apps to avoid a repeat of the problem. He DID NOT tell me all of my photos would be erased along with the apps I'd downloaded!
    Help, please!

    If you didn't have the photos stored somewhere else, then they are gone. A 'backup' is not and should never be considered long term storage. Photos should be extracted to a computer on a regular basis as you would with any other digital camera, and the computer should be backed up as well.

    It appears to show all my purchases.
    Same with app store to see all app purchases.
    Not sure why it is not working for you,
    That shows all your purchased content yes, but not what you paid for them or when you bought them etc...

    I would like to add to the Safari toolbar on my ipad 5 IOS 6  machine. I have searched the web and find some instructions to do this but the words and pictures do not match what I can see. I am beginning to think this is not a capabilty of the ipad 5 but perhaps for a Mac computer running Safari. Does anyone know if it is possible to add tools to the toolbar on the latest version of iPad OS & Safari Browser? If so please tell me how. Thanks

    You cannot customize the Safari toolbar on the iPad.
    What you can do on the iPad is go to Settings>Safari>Always show Bookmarks Bar>On and that will add a bookmarks bar on to the Safari browser.
