Recent searches missing from Google

Safari on my computer has never showed recent searches in Google, either in the toolbar search box or with the main search box (where it predicts what you are searching for). The machine started with 10.3.2 and now has Tiger. Would anyone know why? - I have looked everywhere!

Hi Robin,

The Google toobar search box entries are saved in this file:

/Users/YourUsername/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist

This also stores preferences on whether auto-fill should be used.

So, I'd recommend you try deleting that file, restart Safari and then reset your Safari preferences. Then try performing a few Google toolbar searches and a few searches directly at Google.com to see if it remembers the searches and autofills at Google.com.
