Safari search history on phone shows searches not by me?
Every time I go on to safari new search history shows numerous searches not done by me, my phone provider says no one else could access this unless they were a spy which seems a weird thing to say.
I do not have a shared computer and no one has access to my phone, how can this happen?
If you are talking about the suggested search terms that appear when you begin typing into the search field these are not searches done by you. This is a list of the most common search strings beginning with what you have typed.

What is the shortcut to delete search history in the Google search bar?
I did a google search for this question before, and VIOLA!
However, I have forgotten the simple procedure.
There was a way to highlight all the search history in the Google search bar (Large one in center of page)
Then press ???control and another key? I forget...please help.
Thanks for any and all help.
I much enjoy Firefox over Explorer, which was kicking my offline continually!
FIREFOX solved all issues.
Thanks,
CTI saw your other post first: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/952848]. Hope that helps.

When I close Firefox, I clear everything except the "Form & Search History" which is greyed-out so I can't access it. Also, the options I can choose are not saved by Firefox.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

How do I permanently disable search history in the Google search bar?
In Firefox 3.6, left-clicking the drop-down arrow by the Google icon, then selecting "Manage Search Engines..." only allows you to disable Search Suggestions. Right-clicking the search bar only allows me to "Clear Search History".
How do I PERMANENTLY disable search history when I type in the Google search bar?Disabling "Remember search AND form history" is not the correct solution in my case, what I need is Firefox to offer to split the option and disable "Search Bar History" while keeping "Form History" enabled.
How can I do that? -
The 'Clear History' button in my 'Google' search box has stopped working. it does not clear the searches. I have to go to Tools - 'Clear recent history' in the toolbar to clear the 'Google' searches. Why is this?How to fix it please. James McGunn
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions 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.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Safari calls history doesn't show up in phone history
When making a call from a link on safari on the iphone the call doesn't show up in the phone history as if it was never made.
Delete the cache associated with the App Store.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.appstore/Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore
Click Go then move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.appstore folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac then go to the Apple top left in your screen then click Software Update from the drop down menu. -
My phone will not make calls or receive them and my messenger does not work...in the top left corner it says searching....please help
I would either bring the phone to your service provider or go to your local Apple Store.

My question says it all. The history library shows "Today", "Last 7 days", and "This month". Setting in options window are to save browsing history for 90 days. Where is the rest of the browsing history?
The default in Firefox 3 versions is to keep history for 180 days (6 months).<br />
In Firefox 4+ that has changed to a maximum number of pages that is kept.<br />
* http://blog.bonardo.net/2010/01/20/places-got-async-expiration
You can look at these prefs on the about:config page to see for how long that you keep history in Firefox 3 versions.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.history_expire_days (180) (also affects saved form data)
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.history_expire_days_min (90) -
Same question which I've already posed. IF I can be supplied with a working email addy - I'd be happy to include some screen shots illustrating exactly what it is I'm asking here... Please send me an email addy to continue. Thanks.
I mechanically clear EVERYTHING often when browsing. What I'm getting live arrows on for a Clear are:
Browing & Download History
Form & Search History (this is the ONE NOT working, no hot arrow)
Next is Cookies
then Cache
Then Active Logins
Then finishes up with Site Preferences.
IT IS THE FORM 7 SEARCH HISTORY which won't clear using new Firefox 8.1 where in 8.0 it did. Thanks.

There was only one mac-affecting change made in 8.0.1 which involved preventing a crash in the latest Java plugin. No other changes were taken. If you don't have the option to clear Form & Search History, this may be because you don't have any? Another possibility is that you have an extension that's preventing it. Can you go to Help > Troubleshooting information and paste here the extensions section? -
Well, i decided to create a new profile in Firefox 21, and using add ons compatibility reporter and check compatibility, i finally have the "clear search history" clearing when i click It, after searching, clears all searching history in the Google search bar and drop down. This may help others??
No question, i`m telling you how i solved the "clear Google search history" problem in the Google search bar and drop down, not "clear recent history"."'''Well, i decided to create a new profile in Firefox 21, and using add ons compatibility reporter and check compatibility, i finally have the "clear search history" clearing when i click It, after searching, clears all searching history in the Google search bar and drop down."''' see attachment again.

Clear recent search history in google search bar
Would someone know how to clear the recent search history in the Google search bar? There is no option for clearing the recent search, I think that was eliminated. I cleared the cache, in Safari, but that doesn't clear the google search bar. Is there an option? TIA.
Hi, sorry, can't seem to figure out how to post a question
Hi fcckmd, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Yeah, it can be confusing as to where to find the Post New Topic button on this forum.
The reason it's hard to find that Post New Topic link, is because if there are any categories at the top, you must choose one first, like...
http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=177
But say chose the Using Mac OS X Tiger and you get...
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=758&start=0
Clicking the Post New Topic link gets you here...

that even holds crazy ones like iCal that have but one Category... iCal!

How can I Show Search History - NOT browser history?
Everyone knows that Firefox keeps a history of sites you've visited. Also, by right-clicking on the FF search box, it allows you to "Clear Search History". These are items that you have searched for in the past - but not necessarily clicked through to the results. (where are they kept?)
What I want is to SHOW Search History. In other words, I want to see (and select from) a list of phrases I've entered in the search box. If this isn't available as a feature it'd be a great plugin idea.Thanks, Cor-el, it's perfect!
The plugin you refer to would be great for managing form history items, but that wasn't what I wanted. The mod to userChrome.css was exactly what I needed.
Interestingly, my file did not have the @namespace line in it, so I added it, but I'm not sure if I had to or why it worked without it in the first place. Oh, well.
Thanks again!!! -

Safari search history not clearing
I have a first gen iphone. I've tried everything from going through the settings and clearing the history, cookies, and cache. Also rebooted, restored and still the history is there when I do a search. How do i completely erase the on phone search history?
Disregard, the only solution I found to this was to go through Settings/General/Reset/Reset all Settings. Kind of a pain if you ask me but since I'm a first gen owner it's kind of refreshing to go through and re-set all previous settings and find some little nifty things out about the past updates.
