• private browser option is missing

  I added an application (I forgot the name of it) that would end "private browsing" because I wasn't sure how do. Now the option in the tools pulldown disappeared... I'm stuck in private mode and can not find a way to remedy. I tried to add another app to reverse the trend, but it does not work.

  What color is the Firefox button in the upper left corner of Firefox?
  
  Purple means you're in private browsing mode and Orange means you're not.

  If start private browsing , or stop private browsing will appear in the Firefox menu drop-down button (or Tools menu), you probably have the extension turn off private browsing installed. You don't see this extension in the tab of the Add-ons Manager, unless you open Firefox in Firefox SafeMode.

• How can I get Safari as browser: yahoo has taken over

  Yahoo returns constantly as my default browser on my computer and I spent in the preferences/general systems and validated it States Safari.  How can I get rid of Yahoo.  I have OS X Yosemite

  Hello

  First of all, get rid of Yahoo itself. You uninstall yahoo yourself by entering the programs folder in the Finder, or by a program like AppCleaner or clean my Mac. Then you choose to uninstall. Make sure that there is no trace in the sandbox as well. Then, he must return to the system settings and set Safari as your default browser. Personally, I recommend a program like own to my Mac to uninstall these aggressive programs because they suppress each bit in any directory.

  Hope this helps

• Missing the "private browsing" button on the tab page there is no button "incognito" to the left of the button «+» iPhone 5, iOS 8.4, Firefox 1.2 (1206).

  Hello
  I have this problem since Firefox 1.1 for iOS. I've updated to version 1.2 (1206) but the problem persists.
  When I press the button "tabs count" on the upper right corner, the tabs preview screen with '+' button on the top right corner but THERE IS NOT button "incognito" on his left (it is only black box empty, do you need a screenshot?). Is this a bug or private browsing is not available yet for iOS?
  If the private browsing feature is implemented, how can I activate it?
  Thanks in advance!
  I hope that Firefox will become my favorite browser on iOS too! Keep up the good work!

  EDIT: misspelling.

  Hi spas123, thanks for your kind comments - as far as I know, the private in firefox navigation feature works only on devices with ios9...

• I can not turn off private browsing.

  I voluntarily put Firefox always open in mode incognito by right click > properties and adding-private until the end of the target. Then I caught a virus that made me decide to uninstall / reinstall firefox. Now it always opens in private mode, but I can't stop it. When I right click > properties - private is no longer there. When I go to the Tools tab private browsing options are grayed out. When I try ctrl + shift + p, nothing happens. How can I disable private browsing?

  I also disabled the history at some point, but I don't remember how I did it. I remembered that at the time. This could be what is causing the problem.

  You ensure that you no longer have the private switch attached to the command line in the shortcut on the desktop?

• Private browsing Safari

  Hello!

  Private browsing, Safari seems to be possible with this method that found in the activities of the apple community.  It was posted by Andy, I think!

  The suggestion was the following: Applications-> utilities-> Terminal.   In the Terminal, write the following without quotes "by default write com.apple.safari WebKitHistoryAgeInDaysLimit 0 there was this warning: not trested carefully... so beware a little."  To cancel: same command but with a number from 1 to 5 instead of the value 0.

  I tried recently and it seems to work as long as you leave I have Safari in the Dock and go to Safari using Outlook signature in.  This will give you a black search window which is the search engine of private browsing.   Thanks to this system: OS X El Capitan v10.11.5.

  You don't need to do this if you want to browse in private mode.  Go to Safari preferences-> general and where it says "open Safari with ', select"New window private."

• Safari 9 (El Capitan) is to save cookies in private browsing

  Hello

  I noticed that Safari 9 (OS X El Capitan) saves cookies when I'm in the private browsing window.

  When I visit certain websites (e.g. gizmodo.com) in private browsing, and I close the window, the site cookie is always displayed.

  I tried to restart the Mac, but private browsing Safari cookies have not been deleted.

  Apple says that: "when you are using a private browsing window: Safari doesn't remember the changes to your cookies or other data from the website." (9 safari (El Capitan): private browsing windows use)

  I find this strange because in Firefox or Google Chrome incognito mode deletes cookies when you close the window.

  Please try this as a test.

  1 empty Caches

  Safari > Preferences > advanced

  Tick the box "Show develop menu in menu bar."

  Develop menu will appear in the Safari menu bar.

  Click on develop and select 'Empty cache' in the menu dropdown.

  2 Delete Cookies

  Safari > Preferences > privacy > Cookies and other data from the website:

  Click on the button "Details".

  Delete all cookies except those from Apple, your internet service provider and the banks.

  3 safari > file > new private window

  Try the gizmodo.com site.

  Safari > Preferences > privacy > Cookies and other data from the website:

  Cookie of Gizmodo appears?

  I've tested this and there was no gizmodo stored cookie after you close the private window.

• Safari 9: Impossible to disable private browsing

  Hello! I really need help. I wanted to remove private on my 9 Safari browsing and I found a lot of posts, websites and discussions on the withdrawal of private browsing, and above all, that's what I found:

  1. go to the folder applications in the Finder

  2. right click (with a mighty mouse mouse or mouse button 2 buttons, or Ctrl + click to the mouse) on safari and choose "Show Package Contents".

  3. navigate to the content, then resources, then English.lproj folder (or a respective folder for the language that you may have)

  4. double click on MainMenu.nib in interface builder open

  5. look at the window with the menu safari, click on Safari to expand it, and then click the private browsing menu item.

  6. press the DELETE key and it disappears!

  7. Press command + s for save, close the interface generator if you want and restart safari.

  So, I followed the steps up to the 4th, while I noticed there is no MainMenu.nib in my English.lproj. So, with that, I couldn't do anything. I tried to open the other s MainMenu.nib French, German, etc., but all were just pictures and had no REAL content. I really need help with that. I was about to uninstall Safari, but as I use El Capitan I couldn't, I then noticed that on El Capitan, you can not remove Safari. Please do help me.

  [NOTE] Most reason why I want to disable private browsing is any form of explicit results that is not suitable for certain ages. Until it came across my mind enables SafeSearch for private browsing, but because when you close a private window all cookies are removed, the SafeSearch option does not save (in which I wanted it). Based on this thread by Google: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#! subject, websearch, mJ-BUVoLA08

  It says I can use SafeSearch on windows private if I enable cookies from third party. I couldn't find a way to do it, so if you are unable to resolve the first issue, please do help me with this one if you can.

  Any help is appreciated.

  Thanks in advance,

  -Edward
