Since last upgrade internet history will not clear

SSince last upgrade to my iPhone 4 the internet history will not clear. Tried usual things

I think I've worked out how to fix this. I closed iTunes and ran Photos with the Option/Alt key depressed and told it to use the old iPhoto library as the System photo library. This caused Photos to reimport all the old photos into a new Photos library called Photos Library 2.
When I then ran iTunes and connected my iPad, I got a message saying that the photo source had changed and nothing would be synced until I selected the correct option. This did not happen the previous time I ran Photos and imported the old iPhoto library. I'm now syncing using the second Photos library and it all appears to be working.
I suspect that I closed my laptop down during the original conversion of the iPhoto library (thinking it had finished) and this interrupted the process. This time I let it carry on working for four hours before opening iTunes and I suspect that is what made the difference. Of course, I've lost all the photos I added in the last ten days, but I may be able to retrieve them from my backups.

  • Drop down history will not clear

    no matter what i've tried the drop down history will not clear, the same history has been on there forever

    If you wish to stop the History items showing in your location bar dropdowns my original post gave alink to an article explaining you to do that : by using your '''Privacy''' settings . If that fails to work then look at [[Preferences are not saved]]
    Firefox keeps say your last 18o days history, so in 10 years time it will still be showing history, even if it is still the last previous 180 days.
    Re the variable expiry date for history: this was settable form the main User Interface until very recently, up to about version 3.5, it must now be set using about:config

  • Safari history will not clear with open windows

    I clear my history on Safari but I found the history doesn't really clear if i have other open windows in safari. Everything in the history bar disappears but when you type in URL in a new window, it will predict from a history that should be erased. I do have a workaround.....I have to close all safari windows, clear history, and that gets everything. I would like to not have to close all windows. This just started happening a month or so ago after I upgraded. Any plans to fix this?

    The reason you have a clear history button is so history will be cleared It is not clearing if other windows are open.
    Correct. It does not clear if other windows are open. This is how all browsers work.
    No other browser works that way.
    IE 7.06 tells you you have to close the browser after deleting the history to finish removing the history.

  • Ever since the upgrade, my computer will not let me pick a new tab. I can't hit the plus or ask for a tab. How do I correct this??????

    Ever since the firefox did an automatic update, it will not let me select a new tab. I can't hit the plus sign or even if I click on New tab..it will Not work. If you right click on something and say open in new tab it will but it WILL NOT let me open a new blank tab to search in since the update.

    Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  • Firefox 8.1 downloaded today. Clearing everything, the Form & Search History will NOT clear. In 8.0 it did. Why now with 8.1?

    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?

  • History will not clear using Firefox under Mac OS 10.9.2

    Cannot clear the history. No matter what I do, I'm stuck with junk left over in the History drop-down (Sears and Lowes sites always show up). Tried uninstalling/reinstalling without success. The same sites still show up. Tried going to ~Library/Application Support/Firefox but that folder doesn't exist. How can I clear my history, and more importantly be certain my computer is not being loaded up with retained junk left behind by the browser?

    You can check the places.sqlite database.
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/places-maintenance/
    Remove all places.sqlite file(s) in the Firefox profile folder to make Firefox rebuild the places.sqlite database from the most recent JSON backup (bookmarks-####-##-##_xx.json) in the bookmarkbackups folder.

  • After the last upgrade, my firefox will not open. Task manager says it is running, but I get nothing.

    I finally allowed the last update to run... upon completion, my browser window would not open. I rebooted, got the window to open but had no function on the navigation bar. The only way I could navigate the web was to go to my home page, google, search for the web page and click on the results. Refresh also would not work. I did another reboot and now I'm back to no visual evidence of the browser window being open. It seems like every update for the past few months crashes my ability to utilize my add-ons and my ability to see video is almost always compromised. I try to ignore updates but the reminder keeps popping up so frequently it becomes a nusiance and I cave to the pressure!

  • No matter what I do my browser history will not clear.

    I have tried everything suggested including removing cookies, all the clear history methods, etc. etc. My browser still has a dropdown full of options when I type in one letter.

    Are you talking about history? Or are you talking about Form & Search History?
    Type '''about:preferences#privacy''' <enter> in the address bar.
    The button next to '''History,''' select '''Use Custom Settings'''.
    At the bottom of the page, turn on '''Clear History When Firefox Closes.'''
    At the far right, press the '''Settings''' button. Turn on '''Cache''' and
    '''Form And Search History.'''

  • History in my search bar will not clear even though I have selected all the appropriate settings under tools/privacy etc. Is this a Firefox bug or am I doing something wrong?

    No additional details - just can't figure out why the search history will not clear.

    when i go to Music > Artist > All, as you suggested, i see all the albums i have listed. doesn't really relate to my problem with artists with songs in one album, as well as song w/o album set, and the latter not showing up.
    but that reminds me, why is it when i go to the All section from a particular artist and they do have more than one album (or even no albums), the order of the songs is in the order they are in the albums.. if i wanted the order it is on albums, i would have selected that album for example.. it would be nice if the songs were in alphabetical order when you're NOT browsing by album, making a particular song easier to find (what if you have thirteen albums for example and u aren't sure which album a song is on, now you have to scroll through a seemingly random ordered list to find one song, alphabetical would be SOOOO helpful!)

  • Websites will not clear, even when I try to clear history, and restart.. They ALL come back dozens of them. This is making Firefoc useless. Why?

    Why has it suddenly happened that whenever I go on Firefox the screen is clogged up with websites I have been onto in the last hours, and they will not clear and will not allow me to get back to my bbc home website without difficulty

    In '''Options window''' at '''General panel''' scroll and put '''SHOW MY HOME PAGE'''(probably you have ''Show my windows and tabs from last time'' here), if you have set home page to BBC then every time you open firefox you must see your BBC home page.

    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • Why can't I "load earlier messages" via Text Message since the OS 5 upgrade?  They will not load!

    why can't I "load earlier messages" via Text Message since the OS 5 upgrade?  They will not load! Nor can I forward them to my email like I used to be able to do prior to the OS upgrade.  Please advise.

    "Why can't I load iOS 4.3.5 onto my older (2nd gen?) iPod touch? "
    Beacuse it does not support the new software.  2nd gen can only go to 4.2.1
    Identifying iPod models
    If you have a second gen, then you should be able to get 4.2.1.  What computer OS do you have?  What version of Itunes?

  • Badge on phone icon will not clear

    Since upgrading my iPhone 4 to iOS 5 the badge on my Phone Icon will not clear, it shows up with no number in it and shows on the home screen icon as well as on the voicemail tab inside the phone app. I have tried a reset, turning the badge settings on and off again, quitting the phone app and NOTHING works.

    Hi there Sean.
    Yes this is a problem with the Sim.
    I've only ever seen this from orange with regards to this particular model of handset.
    If you take your phone to you rnearest orange shop and ask them to supply you with a new sim card then im pretty sure that will solve your problem.
    The staff will probably tell you otherwise and ask you to take it to a CNSP but be firm.
    My posts are my opinion and in no way the direct views of Nokia.

  • Cache, cookies and history are not clearing when I close Firefox even though they are set to do so and have been for ages

    I recently had an update (or upgrade?) for FF 16. Today (and I believe the update was done a day or two ago?) my cache, cookies and history are not clearing when I close FF. Also, certain links are not working. Not links for full web pages but for site pop-ups (like the smilie window on a message board). They worked a few days but are not working today. I click the link and nothing happens. I noticed the problem with the cookies not clearing for a few weeks ago but it was only on one site not all sites which is what's happening now.
    My apologies if that's a little confusing. Thanks!

    At any rate, have you tried running Firefox in Private Browsing mode? This will ensure that no infromation from your session is saved once you exit Private Browsing mode and/or exit Firefox.
    You can set Firefox to always start in Private Browsing mode: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/private-browsing-browse-web-without-saving-info#w_how-do-i-always-start-firefox-in-private-browsing
