After installing Firefox 49 the search bar is missing.

After installing Firefox version 49, the search bar is missing. I can't find any customization to the search bar in the rear. When I try to revert to a previous version, all my favorites have disappeared, so I'm stuck.

We will check a userChrome.css file:

Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

  • button '3-bar' menu > '? ' button > Troubleshooting Information
  • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
  • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

In your profile folder, look for a folder of chrome . If you find one, double-click in it and look for a file named userChrome.css that might contain rules modifying the Firefox toolbar area. Something like that?

  • addresses of Firefox in the navigation bar are missing/replaced by different menu drop down

    When I type in an address, the drop down menu no longer contains the same list of addresses as always. Instead, there is a list of locations (less actual addresses www.com beneath each) in bold and some places are repeated in the menu drop down but take me to a different site. Its a game guessing where Im going when I click on one. Next to each entry, there is a magnifying glass icon which was not there before.

  • Search address bar still search via the engine chosen in the search bar

    I think it started right after the installation of Firefox 23.0.1, before which a search in the address bar would always search Google.

    Basically enter a string in the address bar will do the same thing as the search bar. If the search bar is defined on Wikipedia, in the address bar search Wikipedia. If the search bar is set on Youtube, it will search Youtube and so on.

    When I have about: open config and I change my search bar engine (using the bar drop-down menu, which is the browser search), these two values change for this new search engine selected: browser.search.selectedEngine and browser.search.defaultenginename. Their status is "user-set" FWIW.

    Note: When you install Firefox 23, I got two Add-ons installed that touched the search bar: organize search engines 1.7 and Add to Search Bar 2.0. Since then, I have disabled the two Add-ons, and it has not changed anything.

    Check out this extension to restore the key word. Function of the URL:

  • After the FireFox 16.0.1 in Windows Update, the address bar no longer works, as well as the search bar, but not immediately. Reinstalling does not fix it.

    Initially, I downloaded an AOL optimized version, but when the problem came I reinstalled the regular version and it was fine. Two days ago, it restarts randomly. Address bar won't go anywhere with entry or press the arrow and the search bar does any search engine. Try adding a search engine by clicking on "manage search engines" doesn't help; the 'Add a search engine' button is unresponsive and there is not in the list of your choice. I uninstalled everything, including my customizations and settings personal and reinstalled, which did not always help. I tried to disable all plugins and that no longer works. I even tried the search by looking for FireFox homepage, since at this time there, it was the only page I could do and even who would not find. The most recent that I downloaded add-on was the Evernote Web Clipper I think, but it does not seem to coincide with the beginning of the problems.

    Update: I ran a malware (MalWareBytes) program and it came with nothing. I also found in FireFox to get troubleshooting information and added in. In addition, here is my list of plugin/extension:

    Plugins:
    Foxit Reader Plugin for Mozilla 2.2.1.530
    Google Earth Plugin 6.2.0.5788
    Google 1.3.21.123 update

    Glad it worked. Thanks for posting back.

    You previously installed another version of Firefox and if it did not seem possible that one would contribute to a clean reinstall, but it is not a general solution that all users should be considered without first try simpler and safer alternatives.

  • I am unable to Type or use the keyboard in Firefox 18.0 anywhere, including the search bar and URL bar. How should I fix this?

    I am unable to type anything or use the keyboard to type in Firefox. I use Firefox 18.0 installed on Windows 7.
    I am able to paste in the URL bar and the search bar, but absolutely not able to type in it.
    I already tried the 'reset' option but are still unable to type.
    Also tried Firefox in safe mode with disabled addons but are still unable to type.
    Install a new copy of firefox after Firefox uninstall and delete the old "Mozilla Firefox" in windows folder. but always impossible to type.
    Please tell me a solution to this.

    Have you tried restarting the computer?

    It is possible that you have activated the keyboard by chance to one who does not work in Firefox.

    Windows remembers the setting by application keyboard layout and you have probably changed the keyboard by accident via a keyboard shortcut.

    • Make sure you have the language bar visible on the Windows taskbar
    • You can do this via the context menu of the taskbar: toolbars > language bar
    • Check the language setting (keyboard) keyboard for the application that has focus via the icon in the language bar
    • You need to do that while Firefox has focus because Windows remember the keyboard by application setting

    Control Panel > regional and Language Options > keyboards and languages > change keyboards > advanced key settings > change key sequence

  • Upgrade to Firefox 34.0 (linux) has disabled the search bar; How to fix without reset?

    After the upgrade to Firefox 34.0 Firefox 33.2.2 (?) I noticed that the search bar it did not display my search engines. Search engines still exist in the folder but are not visible. However, typing a word in the search bar causes a section of my display flashes all by pressing "enter" will correctly look for the word on Wikipedia, my first search engine. Unfortunately for me, by the time I typed this search bar seems to work fine now. Thus, in addition to a late evening, what the hell just happened, and will this crawling bug returns with each update? What is a linux question (IE. 5.3.3 puppy)?

  • An add-on to force firefox switch to the default search engine in the search bar

    Hello

    I have a few search engines in the search bar of firefox. I find it extremely annoying that whenever I have change the search engine, that it stays like this, even after restarting firefox. Is there an add-on that would go to the one who is at the top of the list (which is my default for search engine being both navigation bar) whenever I restart the browser?

    Let me give you an example: I use duckduckgo as a search engine by default in the search bar and navigation bar. Let's say I need to find a definition for which I use the wikipedia search engine. Then I go to wikipedia one. I disable the browser the next time I start firefox search engine that appears in the search bar is wikipedia and I would have preferred it to be duckduckgo.

    I hope that's not waves.

    see you soon,
    Omen

    Easier is to put the default engine for search engine preferred via the user.js file in the Firefox profile folder by copying the line user_pref() related to this file.

    The user.js file is read whenever Firefox is started and initializes the preferences to the specified value in this file, so the preferences set via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.

    You can search the topic: config page for browser.search. to locate the pref (s) you need.

    • user_pref ("browser.search.defaultenginename", 'Google');

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

    • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)
    • Create the folder chrome (lowercase) in the .default < xxxxxxxx > profile folder if the folder does not exist
    • Use a text editor such as Notepad to create a file user.js (new) in this folder (the names are case-sensitive)
    • Make sure that you select "All files" and not "text files" when you save the file via "save file as" in the text editor as user.js
      Otherwise, Windows can add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with one does not not user.js.txt file
  • Firefox cannot connect to google in the search bar

    I recently had an attacker change the IP address of the DNS server in my router to a bad. When it has been changed, I couldn't access google or facebook. I have fixed and can browse both sites, but the search bar in the upper right won't take me to google. I get an "Unable to connect" error. Do other search engines (e.g. wikipedia) is very good.

    Firefox 37 right out of the box (+ router nonsense) on Ubuntu 14.

    Time seems to have fixed. Maybe the https / /google.com ip has been in cache or something.

  • Firefox takes the address bar in the search bar.

    Every time I do a search on Google, I start typing, and all of a sudden, my text stops to appear in the search bar and begins to appear in the address bar. This also happens when I'm looking at YouTube, and when I try to copy a link in the 'Sharing' tab on a video, it automatically jumps to the address bar. Firefox seems to think that it is now Google, I guess? It does only on Web sites run by Google.

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables certain parameters, disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    • In previous versions of Firefox, click on the Firefox button in the upper left of the Firefox window and click help (or click on help in the Menu bar, if you do not have a Firefox button) and click on restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

  • Whenever I open Firefox, I find that there is no search engine in the search bar, and I have to reset or start in safe mode to make them reappear. Why?

    There is no EnginSearch search bar in the top right of the page and none appears when I try to restore the default values or manage search engines. To return to the search bar, I usually have to reset Firefox or start in safe mode, but this doesnm looking for a solution to this problem.

    It is a conversion tool - Vixy Freecorder. Not sure if that was the cause, but I uninstalled and not had any problems since.

  • Can reposition is no longer the search bar / address after upgrade to 29.0.1

    I guess I just me am automatically "upgraded" to 29.0.1. I used to be able to drag the search bar / address on menu bar - where he lived with happiness before the "upgrade". Now it seems to be permanently set at some bar poster my bookmarks folders. I'd be tempted to call it the 'personal bar', but currently, this option is not checked in the context menu and check, it causes an empty toolbar is displayed. Or the search bar / address seems to be an element in the custom items menu.

    The classic theme restaurant will give you this ability. This article has a link to download it and explains a bit about it - How to make the new look of Firefox as the old Firefox.

  • How can I get the search bar on the home page of Firefox to stop mirroring of what is in the search toolbar?

    This seems to be something new, but I usually use the built in the toolbar to search at the top right of my Firefox window to search eBay and I usually go to the Firefox default Home/Start for searches on Google page. Now, it seems that whenever I try to search from the home/start page, I get the results of any search engine is specified in the top search bar. So if toolbar is set to 'eBay' and I search something on the homepage, only eBay results appear.
    I don't want to do. I want that the Google search home page every time, no matter what is on my search toolbar. It's really annoying to have to go to the search bar engine resume Google and then my search. I often open new tabs quickly find something relevant to what I'm working on because it requires less effort to hit Ctrl + T to open a new tab that is already on the cover with my cursor in the search field, than using the toolbar where I have to take my hands on the keyboard to use the mouse. How can I fix it. This "improvement" sucks.

    I forgot an obvious solution to this problem. I just changed my homepage of "www.google.com" rather than use the default Firefox homepage. In hindsight, it makes little sense to use the default Firefox homepage as an intermediary to Google anyway.

  • resize the search bar and resize individually address bar in Firefox 4 beta

    Address bar and search bar are too big in Firefox 4.12 Beta. I can make one of them smaller, but he made a bigger to fill the space. A way to make the two smaller so I can gain a little more real estate to add one or two other icons? I already use "small icons" in the section "Customize."
