Sites visited

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question. I accidentally removed a site from the list of frequently visited sites that appear when you click the address bar and I'd like to get it back. I don't see an option anywhere to reset frequently visited sites or re-enable sites that have been removed. So how do I get Safari to display this frequently visited site again? MacBook, macOS High Sierra (10.13) Posted on Oct 25, 2017 7:14 AM Oct 25, 2017 7:26 PM in response to Aaron Adams (.Mac) Howdy Aaron, I understand that you've accidentally removed a site from your list of top sites. Fortunately sites can be re-added to this list as detailed below. Add a website to your Top Sites: Move the pointer over the Smart Search field, click and hold the One-Step Add button that appears at the left end of the field, then choose Top Sites from the menu. You can also drag a URL or bookmark to the Top Sites page. View your Top Sites Cheers!

Frequently visited sites appear on the menu that pops up when you click in the address bar. of 1 Resetting frequently visited sites

Well, since no one seems to know, or care, I did the work myself. I hate when that happens 🙂 In any case, when Safari is set to Private Browsing the sites visited are still logged into the Parental Controls log column. So in an account that is subject to parental controls, Private Browsing is not so private. Which is as it should be. In addition, I found the log to be a very useful tool. 1) You can link to the sites that are logged so you can see where your kids have been 2) For each site visited you can elect to have Parental Controls block it. 3) There is also a log of sites that were blocked. You can visit these also, and unblock them if you wish. 4) The log records the date and times a site is visited. We do not allow our kids on the internet when we (parents) are not home. The log will tell us if they have ignored that 'decree'. All in all, very useful. And just to clear the air, I have chosen not to use Parental Controls as a spying tool. I have explained to my kids how the log and all Parental Controls work so they know that where they go is basically public info. And I've tried to explain that for the most part that anywhere any of us goes on the internet is public info anyway.

Is there any way to disable the Frequently Visited Sites in Safari, which appear below the Favorites section? Mac mini, OS X Yosemite (10.10) Posted on Dec 11, 2014 1:51 PM Dec 20, 2014 5:38 AM in response to _iShaun Go to Setting> Safari , turn search engine suggestions and Spotlight suggestions off and it should disappear. If you have some left on there hold finger on them then when you release it Delete will pop up and you can delete them Dec 20, 2014 12:46 PM in response to _iShaun Remove Favorites dropdownSafari > Preferences > Search > Smart Search Field Uncheck the box beside “Show Favorites”. Dec 20, 2014 1:00 PM in response to dominic23 That just stops the Favourites from showing in the dropdown menu from the search/address bar.Doesn't stop them appearing below the Favourites already there, as pictured (I have no recents at the minute).When a "Recently Visited" site appears, it gets put beneath the set of Favourites below.The only way to remove it is by dragging it out of that area.

Caches but since not everyone has access to CleanMymac X, you can try and clean up browsing clutter manually.If you use multiple browsers, you won’t sleep well until you remove history in each of them — every browser has its own track of your online activities. Good news is that it’s possible to manually delete search history in any given browser. How to view and clear your browsing history in SafariTo view and clear your Safari search history:Click on the Safari menu Choose Clear History (if the option is grayed out, you need to turn off Content & Privacy Restrictions in the Screen Time menu)Choose an option from the dropdown menu and click Clear History againAll the sites you’ve visited in the period specified by the option you’ve chosen will disappear from the History menu. That won’t remove all of the traces, however. To get rid of data stored by the sites you’ve visited, click on the Safari menu again and then Preferences. Select the Privacy tab and then Manage Website Data. You’ll see a window with a list of sites you’ve visited and notes on what data they store on your Mac. If you want to remove all traces of every site you’ve been on, click Remove All. Otherwise, scroll through the list or search for a site whose data you want to delete, click on it, and Remove. If you want to remove a specific site from your history, access Safari’s History tab in the menu bar and

ISOHunt has two weeks to remove torrents linking to content under copyright One of the most popular engines for searching for movies and music distributed via BitTorrent has been ordered to remove links to illegally shared content, marking a victory for the entertainment industry.ISOHunt.com and three other Web sites are subject to an injunction issued by the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California that bars the sites from serving up torrents leading to certain content under copyright. Torrents are small data files that enable the downloading of content using peer-to-peer file-sharing programs such as uTorrent.The permanent injunction, issued on May 20 by U.S. District Judge Stephen V. Wilson , marks the latest court action against ISOHunt. In December 2009, the court found that Gary Fung “induced infringement” in violation of U.S. copyright law.Fung, who runs the company ISO Web Technologies, has said he would not take steps to prevent copyright infringement unless ordered by a court, according to court documents.Fung was sued by Columbia Pictures Industries. Fung’s Web sites were visited by up to 2.5 million U.S. citizens monthly, and the Web sites collectively were visited more than 50 million times each month. More than 95 percent of the material on the sites infringes copyright, according to statistical evidence from the plaintiffs, the documents said.Wilson wrote that amounted to a “staggering volume of infringement of the plaintiff’s copyrights” and one in which the plaintiffs were unlikely to be fully compensated.“Defendants operated their Web sites as popular destinations for copyright infringement and etched their niche in the market for infringement,” Wilson wrote. “Defendants were enormously successful in building a user base of infringers that, by defendant’s own account, number in the millions.”The Web sites subject to the permanent injunction include www.isohunt.com, www.podtropolis.com, www.torrentbox.com and www.ed2k-it.com. Fung is prohibited from hosting, indexing or linking to torrents that point to copyrighted works or running tracker servers, which coordinated the download of content on a peer-to-peer network.The court also barred the sites from processing searches using terms associated with file sharing, such as “warez,” “Axxo,” “Jaybob,” “DVD Rips,” “Cam,” “Telesync,” “Telecine,”
