After the last update, I can search is more for nothing. Any idea what has been disabled?

I recently did a refresh on Firefox and now I can't use the search feature. I restarted in safe mode, I disabled all extensions, and I still have this problem. How can I fix?

You can check if you have the XML files including Google's default search engine in the browser\searchplugins file in the Firefox program folder.

If this isn't the case, then you need to reinstall Firefox.

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.

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

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.

  • The last update does not have a bookmark for a site! What you do about it?

    I tried to make a bookmark multiple sites using several means without result. No form appears, and no new bookmarks is displayed. I have rolled back the version and you can make bookmarks.

    Hi, first of all upgrade Firefox to version 40.0.2 (3-bar menu > help - question mark at the bottom right > on Firefox.)

    Now, because it is perhaps a matter of the extension, try Mode without failure of Firefox to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

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

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe 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 problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in 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.

    It is a problem with the extension of the RSS icon (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions), so you will have to disable or uninstall this extension until its developer released an update to fix this.

  • After the last update, new tabs show a boittiaux search, left the window 'related searches', announces low & Bing becomes default in the search bar.

    After the last update:
    (1) open the new tab - rather than thumbnails of frequently visited sites, I now get a Bing search page.
    (2) all new pages now arrive at a window on the left side of the "Related Searches" and an ad that runs along the bottom.
    (3) this has been fixed but could be due - after the upgrade, my area of research has been failing to Bing (I do not use or as Bing). When I reset, it is again changed to Bing. I removed Bing entirely and he returned. I removed it again and so far it does not appear by default upward again, but he's back to the list of search engine after removing two times.

    Thanks cor - el. I so reset Firefox and then to about: config and updated the keyword.url of Google search string. Seems to have finally worked - let's see it.

    An another massive Microsoft f & * % up - those who do not or use Bing are more anti-Bing than ever.

  • After the last update wmp plugin is missing in Add-ons, but is still correct installed. Reinstall will not work. What can I do?

    I been lissening to online radio. Necessary to update Firefox. After the last update the windows media player plugin has disappeared from the list of Add-ons, while always being correct installation. I reinstalled it, but that has not worked. I have replaced/deleted some files in firefox as suggested, for similar problems, but that no longer works.
    Now, I can not play wmp files on firefox.

    Hope you can help me solve this problem.

    Found a solution:

    Go in Subject: config and change plugins.load_appdir_plugins from false to true. Apparently FF21 assigns the value false by default causing it to not detect plug-ins installed in this way.

  • After the last update of FF13, I double click on the bookmark button and the window does not open, so I can edit.

    When I double click the bookmark (star) button a window still down so I can change the bookmark or place it in the folder I want. Now, after the last update of FF13 (June 2012), I can click once and the page is a bookmark in the "home" folder, but when I double click nothing happens. (1) I restarted FF, did not help 2) I rebooted the computer, did not help.

    You just click on the star once if the star is high already turned on to indicate that a site is bookmarked. Normally, you would click once to bookmark the current site, then click once, if you want to change the new bookmark. If you double-click and you open and close the pop-up edition.

    After you enable hardware acceleration can cause problem with edit op - up doesn't work does not correctly, so in case of problems, you can disable hardware acceleration.

    Firefox extension: 'TrueSuite 5.2.500.16' stopped working after the last update of firefox (30.0), although subject: said plugin activated.

    I tried to reset firefox and search for similar problems, unfortunately found nothing.

    It is also weird empty space before the address in the address bar

    other extensions and addons seems to work very well.

    Firefox 30 spent some less commonly used "Always turned on" plugins "asking to activate. To check and change this to TrueSuite, you can use the page modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Then on the right, check the setting on the right side of TrueSuite.
