Address bar aka bar stops working with AVG update

Problem: My guess is that a number of people now have this problem due to a recent update AVG. My husband has been using the address bar in Mozilla very well until he was interrupted by an AVG update last night (February 3, 2012). Suddenly, it did not work.

Solution: With a lot of help from the Mozilla Help pages, I discovered that AVG is an extension. Our operating system is Windows XP, so I was able to go to 'Tools' and then click on "Add-ons." I clicked on "Extensions" found and disabled "AVG Safe Search." Now the historical Search Bar and address bar work like a charm. Find the solution took some time because I knew it would be the case, then I don't address until this morning (February 4, 2012).

Question: I am curious how many others have this problem as a result of the AVG update.

Disable it in the Mozilla Extensions is good enough and will not affect other applications.

    No way to re - start in safe mode?   If you can, this can help.

    To load your Mac in Mode safe, press in and hold the SHIFT key while it starts. You can now stop the SHIFT key when you see an Apple logo and progress bar. To exit Safe Mode, just restart your Mac without hold the SHIFT key.

    Say hello to new jim5840.

    Then, when you go to the "Startup" in msconfig tab there are no set Office agent or anything that looks like that?  Before continue with the steps I saw then I would like you to check that you don't see anything that resembles this name under the 'Services' or 'Starting' tabs

    I still believe that it is an application that will be started when you start in Windows.  So the next step will be to try to use a clean boot to resolve the problem.  A "clean boot" means that Windows will load only the system files when it starts and will load all the apps with it.  Try the following.

    1. Click Start, type "msconfig" and press ENTER.
    2. This time, you will stay in the 'General tab '.
    3. You should see "selective startup".  Ensure that this field is selected.
    4. Deselect the option "Load Startup items".
    5. Apply the changes and restart the laptop.
    6. Display the result.

    I'm waiting for your answer; have a great day!

  • Version 29: Address bar is filled with static icons to Firefox. Impossible to type the URL in the address bar.

    I have never seen anything like this before and can't find a solution in support or in a general Google search.

    We have a user who has an address bar has filed with the static icons in Firefox (there's a screenshot if there is no way to predict that). If the user clicks on them, they aren't going anywhere (they shouldn't be here anyway, no?). This user is unable to type in the address bar, either. Not sure if there was an auto-update to version 29 of the next day or not, but Firefox has been uninstalled a sweet version of installed 29 - reasoning that he could be an installation problem. The question remains. This user is not having the same problem with Chrome. Have not tried to breed with another browser on that machine. Have not heard complaints from other users in the Office using version 29.

    Is there a setting being ignored with version 29? Is this a bug? Should we try to install version 28 and see if it's a question of versioning, or maybe something else? Try to eliminate possible problems and move to the next set of solutions.

    Thank you

  • FDM has stopped working with firefox

    Free Download Manager has stopped working with firefox after I speedup firefox opening. (not after restart or update of firefox) Before that, I used FDM on firefox. I already try with restart firefox and follow-up of the implementation under the quiz "Windows Media or other plugins stopped working after Firefox update | Firefox Help", but none of them worked.

    When you say after you speed up Firefox, do you mean you used the reset feature? You can tell because Firefox will create a new 'Old Firefox Data' folder on your desktop when you reset.

    The Reset function deletes your extensions as part of the cleaning process. You probably need to reinstall FDM from its original source. Maybe the Addons site? https://addons.Mozilla.org/Firefox/

  • HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m stopped working with a Macbook, still works with others

    We had this printer wireless printing of 2 Macbooks a running OS X 10.8.2 and another OS x 10.6.8 without any problem for some time when it suddenly stopped working with the old Macbook running 10.6.8.

    When we tried to print anything in that nothing happened, when we open the print queue, there's an exclamation point to the left of the print job and to say an error message something about the levels ink (ink levels were very well as it print to the other Macbook without problem).  We tried the buttons pausing and resuming.  I can't provide exact errors that we had because now that we have tried to reinstall the drivers we get a new series of errors.

    We redownloaded the drivers for OS X 10.6 on HP website and tried to go through the HP setup assistant.  When we arrive at step 'Select printer' and he takes us into the preferences system to add a printer - our printer shows up, but when selected, we get the following error message: some of the software of the printer is missing.  You may not be able to print to "HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m" Please reinstall the printer. software - and of course, we are not able to print.

    We uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers several times without any effect.  The only way that we were able to print off the computer is if printer sharing is enabled on the other Macbook (with OS X 10.8.2).)  Then, it presents itself as a separate printer and can be used by the old Macbook only if the other is on.  This isn't how it was put in place when we had the two work before.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    What router are you using?  I guess that the 10.8 machine can print correctly?

    Let's start with that on the 10.6 machine: download and install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907

    Restart your Mac.

    Reset the printing system:

    -Go to System Preferences > print & Scan
    -Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - This will remove ALL your printers!
    -Select the sign more to add a printer. Select the default tab on the top of the window. Search for the printer, select it, and then beside the dropdown 'Use', select the model of the printer (not AirPrint). Wait for the 'Add' button becomes available. Until it clicks.
