  • Why Google + comments will work for me in private browsing mode, but not in the regular navigation?

  • I did NOT 'save passwords' check and is in private browsing mode - but are still saved my pw. ZERO password indicated @ 'saved passwd '. How to solve?

  • Why private browsing is better than fair compensation history every day?

    I heard you can do your banking transactions online and other financial activities in private browsing mode. I always clear history when I turn off the computer anyway. And get private browsing to accept my places previously marked with a bookmark has failed. I can re-favorite of private browsing, of course. But I just wondered if it is really necessary, or more for people with computers on the network, or shared computers?

    You can not get to my computer - troubleshooting information. I use the Windows 7 operating system and the latest version of Mozilla Firefox.

    Note that in private browsing mode disk cache is not used

    Firefox also disables the disk cache if you use "Clear history of Firefox closing" to clear the cache of navigation.

    So if you really want to erase all personal data of all day isn't much of a difference.

    Private browsing mode only records data on the disk, but it keeps in memory for the current session.

  • The format for a specific Web site is displayed wrong, but it works fine in other browsers and Firefox's private browsing mode. What gives?

    How to cancel a download without closing the private window?

    Thank you.

    You can perform the same operations for downloads in navigation mode as in your regular browser window. There are no pop-up downloads, but should open a separate tab for downloads in private browsing. Alternatively, while in a private window, you can enter topic: download to your address bar, and it should show you your downloads that are spend in your private browsing windows.

    It appears randomly in private browsing mode. When I check the history when Firefox is opened, it will appear, but when I exit and restart the history is clear.

  • One can see the cookies of session in private browsing mode - see only normal cookies.

    Using Firefox 19.0.2

    Is it possible to allow Firefox to display ONLY the cookies of the current session in private browsing mode, rather than a list of my regular cookies?

    First, basic cookies management seem to work fine for me, in both normal mode and private browsing: Cookies set during private browsing are removed as expected when you exit Firefox or switch to normal navigation.

    HOWEVER...

    I can't SEE the new cookies set during a private browsing session.

    If I start Firefox normally, switch to private browsing mode and then go to Options > show Cookies, the window opens showing a long list of my 'normal' cookies

    Previously, the cookies window seems to be EMPTY at the start of a private browsing session. After a while of browsing and then recheck the list I see only the cookies set in this private browsing session.

    Now, during a private session, when I re - check the list of cookies for navigation I see my regular cookies, and NONE of the new session cookies appear in this list (the same cookies appear as before switching to the private mode).

    I tried to start Firefox in Mode safe, without a change in behavior. I also tried to disable the modules, without change.

    List of installed modules:

    Adblock Plus 2.2.3
    BetterPrivacy 1.6.8
    Ghostery 2.9.3
    Googlebar Lite 4.9.7
    IE View 1.5.6
    MICROSOFT.NET Framework Assistant 1.3.1
    PrivacyChoice TrackerBlock 2.2
    Status-4-Evar 2013.02.16.23
    Bookmark Favicon changer 1.74 (disabled)
    CheckPlaces 2.6.2 (disabled)

    Suggestions?

    Thank you!
