Safari history missing!

My safari history is missing ever since I upgraded to the new safari. I used the in-browser history to view the pages I had visited previously for a lot of my homework and now this function has disappeared. Is there any way to get it back?

Command Option 2  or Safari - History menu - Show History.

  • Safari "History" missing for past three days ?

    I was  on Safari "History" trying to find some sites I visited on Nov. 30 - Dec.2 and none of that info shows up on "History".  I restarted the computer and now have History from  the past few sites I just visited., but a totaly blank for the past three days and this mroning.  Does anyone have a clue why a few days are missing ?  I'm running OS 10.6.8.
    BTW... I keep trying to edit my "Products" to reflect updated OS below, and all it will let me do is "add" products ??
    Thanks.... Carolyn

    EDIT:.... I neglected to mention that I have all "History " showing  prior to Nov.30.  All that is missing is the three days from Nov 30 through Dec. 2.  
    Sorry for this omission if it is important.   BTW... this is not a BIG DEAL.  I am just baffled as to why three days would suddenly disappear ?
    Thanks... Carolyn

  • Preserving Safari history for use in a new iMac installation

    My Mother is ready for a new iMac but has a strong afinity to using the Safari history for browsing sites she's accessed previously.  Reading about Safari history has alerted me to the "plist" file that the history is saved in.  I need to determine how I can transfer a XOS plist file between ver 10.5.8 and ver 10.7 of Safari without running into permission or authorization issues to successfully save this information for her use with Safari in the new machine.
    In a past upgrade I missed how important the Safari history file was to her.  I ended up with a very disappointed user/Mom which was an experience I don't intend to repeat.
    Thanks for any help with links to informative articles or material I should review prior to the migration.

    Move the file as you would any other.

    The missing apps could have been done by setting the Restrictions that can hid those apps. If the backup was made with those retrictions set the the Restrictions are also restored.
    Thus, if you get it to work restore to factory settings/new iPod, not from backup

  • Is there a relatively easy way to view deleted safari history or pages viewed for an iphone? Browser has been cleared, cookies have been cleared, but I'm wondering if the information is still accessible in my phone somehow?

    As I say, internet has been cleared, and under settings, the advanced cookies & history has also been cleared. Is there an easy way of viewing this info again?
    Also, the "private browsing" option, is there a way of disabling it or at least having that option password protected?
    And what is "web inspector"? Is that something that I can set up on my pc that will monitor iphone activity?
    Thanks!

    Just wondered if there was another way?
    If doing a restore is the only way, would someone be able to tell me how to do it and whether or not I will have a heck of a time getting all my info & apps back onto my phone afterwards?
    Thanks!
    How does this relate to your first post?
    Are you talking about restoring as new? or restoring to a backup?
    Why are you restoring?
    If it is to recover History  and you think that you have a backup that contains the missing history you could restore to that. Doing this will restore your iPad to the state that it was in at the time of the backup, Apps, Games, etc.
    Note that there are PC and Mac applicatons that can read iPad backup files and extract information. Check the internet for these. I do no know if they extract Safari History.

  • Safari history window

    How can I expand the safari history window to full screen so that all the information is viewable on the screen?  I need to see the time of the sign on.

    You pose an interesting question and one that has given me pause from time to time as well. AFAIK there is no way to expand the history window unless I have missed something. I just tried it in another browser - iCab - and I see no way to expand the history window in that one either.

  • How do I retrieve my cleared safari history on iphone?

    How do I retrieve my cleared safari history on iphone? I accidentally clicked clear cookies and data as well, so everything is basically gone and there are very important stuff that I NEED to recover. I tried to do the settings>safari>adavanced>website data, but nothing worked, because since I cleared cookies as well, everything's just gone.

    You restore the phone using a backup made before you cleared it. If you don't have a backup from when it was present, then it's gone.

  • Cisco Webex Connect Jabber 7.2.2 History Missing

    Running Cisco Webex Connect 7.2.2 on W7 x64.
    Anyone run into chat history missing or only showing 1 day of chat when you know that you shoud have weeks and weeks with certain persons?  Default is 9999 days.  Had someone ask me to start CWC as administrator and set to some other value, like 9998 days.  Worked for a while and resurfaced.  Other peers having same issue, so I know it is not specific to my machine.  Even got new machine recently with same OS and CWC and problem has surfaced on this new machine too.
    I saw that the chat is stored in a db3 file.  I do find a couple of those on my machine but not sure if the client is buggy or the file truely is missing the chats.  Would need a dBase III browser to find out more.
    Is there a more current release of CWC 7.2.2 that might have bug fixes in it that relate to chat history being toast?
    Would love to hear from others in here including Cisco support.

  • Search syntax for Safari history? how to remove items from specific pages?

    I'm using Safari 5.0.3 and I prefer keeping the browsing history quite long for accessing contents I had been searching in the net some weeks ago.
    However, that way I'm collecting lots of clutter and therefore I'd like to remove selected entries from the history, e. g. from the page where I'm reading daily news etc.
    I tried to use the search field (accessible with Cmd-F in the history view) to search for parts of the corresponding web address, e. g. "http://www.heute.de", but I do not only get the history items from that site but many others from google and other pages.
    So I'd like to know: is there a search syntax to use the search field, like address=www.heute.de* which enables wild cards, operators like OR/AND etc.?
    If not, is there a 3rd party tool which can help or can I use spotlight/the finder to find and remove the unwanted items from the browser history?

    Hi beckmart
    there might be ready-made apps or add-ons to do that - but this may help...
    quit safari, open Home/Library/Safari/History.plist using PrefSetter
    enter the url you want removed in the search box, no need for quotes - say www.google.com
    expand the 'web history dates' section at left to see individual results, then select the first one & shift-click the last (don't use select all) to highlight/select all the results - then press the delete key to remove them. Then save the file.
    Naturally, a backup copy of history.plist would be wise - but the above seems to work very well.

  • How did old Safari History Items I haven't visited in years appear recently?

    I upgraded to Mountain Lion on Saturday October 13th. I then ran software updates, and got everything up to date. I was home alone, and the only thing I went to YouTube for was to get guidance for setting up Facebook and Twitter notifications. That's it. Today, using spotlight, some Safari History Items appeared for October 13th, 2012 for sites I haven't visited in years. However, none of them show up in my Safari Histroy. What gives?
    Please help! I'm being accused of looking at inappropriate material when I didn't.
    I'm at a loss to explain what really happened. Any concrete help will be greatly appreciated

    Triple-click the line below to select it:
    ~/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari/History
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select Services ▹ Open from the contextual menu. Delete the contents of the folder that opens. Quit and relaunch Safari.

  • ICloud Safari History not syncing across my devices with Yosemite and iOS 8

    I have a MacBook Pro with the latest update of Yosemite installed, an iPad 2 with iOS 8.1.1, an iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1.1 and other things seem to be syncing like my bookmarks, reading list, and all other iCloud data as well as iMessages and text messages. But the one thing that does not seem to be syncing is my browsing history in Safari. This is supposed to be a new feature of Yosemite and iOS 8 and it is working for a friend of mine but not me.
    How can I fix this? I've tried going into iCloud settings on all three devices and turning off Safari sync and then turning it back on but no luck.

    I spoke with Apple support again this weekend. The first support specialist told me that Safari browsing history was not a feature at this time. When I sent a screenshot of the notes of what updated in Safari 8.0.2 on December 11, 2014 from the AppStore, I got transferred to a senior support specialist. They had me try things like log out of icloud and then reset my network settings on my devices. But that unfortunately did not work. My next step which I did not have time to do, is to see if it is my iCloud account by creating a new iCloud account, logging out of iCloud and then resetting my network settings and then logging into iCloud with the new iCloud account and see if Safari history syncs.
    I'm not sure what they will do for me if it is my iCloud account because I have so much on that account and have email addresses that I don't want to lose. And if it isn't the iCloud account they said it is probably my devices but I am not sure what they will have me do to try to fix it if it is. Set them up as new? I don't really want to do that, it takes forever to get everything back on the device.

  • Safari history - how to restore from Time Capsule?

    Background...
    I couldn't open Safari today (beachballing with no window opening whatsoever), presumed the "com.apple.Safari.plist" file was corrupted so deleted it from "~/Library/Preferences", and restored a copy using Time Machine from my Time Capsule from yesterday before I had the issue. Safari settings from yesterday restored and working.
    However...
    My Safari History going back 2 years has deleted to just one month ago! How can I restore these from a previous Time Capsule backup? Is it just "History.plist" file from "~/Library/Safari" that needs to be restored, or also the one titled "HistoryIndex.sk" in the same location, and/or any others?
    Also, do I need to restart machine after restoring all files needed, or should the history show immediately after just relaunching Safari?
    Note: I tried doing the "History.plist" one only, yet still just get the one month of history showing. This is really urgent as I have sites in my 2 year browsing history I need to get to again!
    Help very very gratefully received :-\

    Though I am still finding that with circa 2 years worth of history, they may be starting to delete from the back-end after a while; so I presume there may be a theoretical max amount of sites and/or dates Safari will keep in there regardless of setting "Manually" for history deletion.
    I doubt there's a maximum size specific to the History plist, but that (or corruption of it) would be the only limitation. And yes, plists do get corrupted with some frequency.
    And I don't know, either, what would happen if the plist got to a maximum; whether you'd get a message, or it would drop the oldest entries.
    That must be a huge+ file after 2 years! It's a bit surprising that it hasn't gotten corrupted before.
    If your browsing history is that important, I'd suggest finding some other way to keep it that long, such as bookmarking the critical sites. That would take much less room (and be less subject to corruption) than the history of every site you've ever visited, every time.
    And/or, there might be a 3rd-party app that would help. I don't know of any, but it might be worthwhile to look for one.

  • Stupid Question? - Safari History

    For some reason the dates in my Safari history are incorrect. i.e. Today is Sunday, June 1st, but when I go to access History from the toolbar, it lists yesterday as Friday, May 30....so dates in History are off by one day. However, my system time & date is set correctly.
    Probably a stupid question, but any idea how I can fix this?
    Thanks

    I can't find the word "yesterday" on my History menu. Where do you see that?
    For me it shows "Earlier Today" then it starts showing the dates underneath that.
    Of course, I didn't use Safari yesterday, so that might be why.
