Address bar AutoComplete feature no longer works

Hello

After I erased my story a couple of days, I noticed that the address bar AutoComplete funtion not working. I have visited many sites since then and yet they do not upward, nor my favorites. In 'preferences' Firefox, privacy, I selected "History and bookmarks" to the address bar.
I tried to use Firefox in safe mode, but the problem was also present in safe mode.

One possible cause is a problem with the places.sqlite file that stores the bookmarks and history.

  • The URL bar AutoComplete feature does not work correctly, does anyone else have this problem?

    I was running version 9.x and had this problem, so I've just updated to 11 of Firefox, but it does not help.

    The problem is that the URL bar doesn't let me type a new address in some cases - preferring instead to refer to a previously visited address. It would be better if I gave an example:

    I'm trying to access a site, that I have not visited, for example holden.com.au

    I type 'h', and the URL bar suggests that I go to my Hotmail login page (the URL for that starts by of ') and the rest of the extreme Auto (so now I'm in the situation where I have an address in the bar from '). This means that I can not continue to enter the address provided.

    Can it be fixed or is it just a question for me?

    I solved this problem by going to: setting up and activating/deactivating the browser.urlbar.autoFill layout. I think the default setting has been changed in a recent update.

  • The address bar / AutoComplete is locking up.

    Everytime I type something my history or bookmarks in the location bar, it displays the first character or two, and then refuses to view the rest of the address of the site that I type and fails to show the results of my history/bookmarks. It shows only what I am typing after I press ESC or click anywhere on the Web page. A similar problem also occurs when I try to pull something together as a Web site, including the forms on this page 'edit a question", except that the AutoComplete results appear and I can use my mouse to select what I wanted to type manually.

    I'm guessing that autocomplete is locked for some reason any. However, I have tried to clean the sql databases and even removed the profile folder and reinstalled firefox, nothing helps.

    A solution that bothers that I know is to run firefox in safe mode and disable all addons or reset all the preferences of the user by default, which makes the AutoComplete behave exactly as it should until I close firefox. I can reactivate my addons and restart firefox and the address bar will continue to behave properly, but closing and re-opening firefox without using safe mode, even if nothing is changed (addons reactivated, set preferences, etc.), translates the AutoComplete not cooperating again.

    This problem started about a month after I had installed Xubuntu to 11.10.

    It's been four months now. I am running Firefox 11.0, and the problem is still there. At least, he received no worse or anything like that.
    Firefox is the only program on my computer with an AutoComplete feature that locks like that. It's really weird.

    Edit: From Xubuntu 12.04, this problem seems to be fixed.
    I'll upgrade to Firefox 12 and see if it stays that way.

    Edit 2: Running Xubuntu 12.04 & Firefox 12. Problem is solved.

  • The search feature no longer works in any of my projects generated HTML help recently

    I use 10.0.1.292 HR and HR 11.0.4.291 for different projects.


    Recently, I noticed that the search feature returns no result, in one of my projects that are generated in either Rh10 or 11. I just get the message 'no topics found. It's used to work.


    The only thing that was made recently (that I can think of) involved working with the .slp files to fix a problem with the glossary tab and the search functionality in a HR 11 Responsive HTML5 layout. (https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1690579) I, however, do not see how this would break the search functionality in my HTML projects.


    Any ideas?

    In both 10 and 11, HR whenever I generated a project like HTML Help (still an example of project) the search functionality was broken. Finally, when I couldn't think what else to try, I uninstalled and reinstalled 10 HR, and that solved my problem - HR 10 and 11!

    Apparently some file has been corrupted, but I don't know what broke or what caused the corruption. I'm still trying to get clarification from Adobe, but so far, I only received the following comments:

    • The robohelp cache folder and preferences may have caused this.
    • The problem can be either with updates on the system.

    If I should receive any definitive information, I will update this post.

    Thank you.

  • OT features no longer work

    Hello

    I have a big problem,

    I can't select my OT features more. I choose them, but they will not appear and change. For example, I want to use small caps to Minion Pro. Once I select the letters and click the attribute of small capitals, nothing happens. It's really annoying.

    The same thing happens with my fints PS if I switch to the version of small caps. Illustrator trying to be clever and exchange letters with letters of the normal version.

    It happens in CS6 and CC.

    I need urgent help please, what is happening here!

    Minion Pro should have OsF, here's where I activated. I think they should have an icon as opentype options would be less disturbing.

    Keep in mind of each policy is different, and that some options may be unavailable on some fonts and may be gray (often fractions).

    Small capital letters is a good question, because I don't think I ever said that in the Opentype palette. Enable small caps in the character palette, thoughsince that works on any font would have thought what does access special small caps in the police, but my comparison test here seems good (note the weight seems even in the top of the page sample, versues my fake down version).

  • How can I disable AutoComplete in Web pages? No address bar autocomplete. In addition, delete the cache.

    I just want to go on a specific site where I have a dial-up connection and type my username in the username every time box instead of having semi-automatic before entry to come. I don't want my username to be cached and I would like to delete the cache that exists. Thank you.

    1. Click on the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop-down list

  • I used to be able to click on the Home icon using my Center wheel to cause a new tab open with my home page. This feature no longer works. Please notify.

    So, when I click on the Home icon at the top right of my Firefox page using my Center wheel, a new tab opens is more like

    my home page. Now, nothing happens when I do this.
    

    There is an extension or two or a combination of extensions that appear to be originally in Firefox 6.0.2. One that has been mentioned is TabMix Plus.

    You need to understand what is the cause and disable this extension/s until they are fixed by their developer.

  • 3D features no longer work in one project

    Hey there,

    I'm having a problem with the 3D functions in my recent project. (Note: in this project!)

    When the tick 3D on any layer, just all the other layers in the composition turn invisible and the background is set to black. However, the eye who manages the visibility of a layer is always visible.

    In addition, the X and the Y Rotation has lost its functionality. The object is not but more or less compressed, which looks like a poor imitation of a 3D rotation. I'll show you better.

    Must be well described. Hope someone knows what happened there, I hit probably just accidentily a shortcut that changed all that, but I obviously don't know.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Add a camera to your publication.  Switch the Viewer to "Active Caméra" instead of "forward".

    The view from the 'Front' is spell - it shows no prospect.  Use it for alignment of layers, but not for the final design decisions.

    You can only return the output from the Active camera view, so it's best to use it as much as possible.

  • "smart" address bar is no longer work.

    I used to be able to type a phrase in the address bar and firefox would automatically work out where I wanted to go (for example facebook to www.facebook.com; ISO 14001 wiki went to the wikipedia article for ISO 14001). Now, when I try this I have AVG page of search results.

    How can I stop happening, that this intelligence is one of the main reasons I use firefox? I tried to disable AVG safesearch, it has no effect.

    You describe the Google search based on the name that is the default behavior on Firefox 3.6

    To achieve this behavior on Firefox 4, you must change a hidden preference.

    1. Type of topic: config in the address bar and press on enter
    2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    3. Locate the preference keyword. URL, double-click it and change its value on the link below

  • Address bar works on a user account and not on the other

    Hello

    I searched on through so many forums to find an answer to my problem - it is perhaps quite unique.

    A year ago, stopped my firefox address bar AutoComplete works not at all. I have the latest version and I tried all the stuff around dumping cache etc. Anyway, I got a new Mac yesterday and I opened Firefox and everything worked as it should - great.

    However, I moved all my files/settings/applications etc in front of my ole mac via migration assistant and now firefox is not working properly on this user account. So, I have two user accounts on the same mac, both running the same software applications. The user account with all the old files etc is that I want to continue to use, but Firefox will not properly work on this subject.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled, updated, deleted version cache... all I can think.

    I'm sick of Chrome crashing on me.

    Can anyone help?

    This may be a problem with the places.sqlite file that stores the bookmarks and history.

  • Search bar and address bar does not work when a new tab is opened

    When a new tab is opened, or the search address bar or research on the work of the page. All in all, nothing happens when you click search or click the arrow.

    Try to delete the file search.json and possible search - metadata.json and search.sqlite files in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the default search engines.

    Firefox will rebuild the file search.json from the default search engines in the folder "browser\searchplugins" in the Firefox program folder and the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.
