By clicking on the address bar or search bar and typing does not erase the previous text inside

When I click on the address bar or search bar and start typing a new entry, it does not erase the previous text. I always have to remove it first to clear the field and then I can type in the new URL or keyword...

OK, I found the search the on: configuration database. The problem is that browser.urlbar.clickSelects.All is set to "false". I changed it to "true" and now everything is perfect...

Also to solve the same problem with the search bar, I changed browser.search.context.loadInBackground from false to true.

  • How do I change my address bar, so it does not give me the search options?

    Recently, I installed a toolbar called Freecorder because I needed to record audio for something on the internet. Install this thing also installed a search engine, and it has changed the default search to something else. I changed it back to topic: config, but now when I go to my address bar, I don't see is more most of my registered URLs. I have to click several times to get the drop down box, and when I do, it looks like this: http://i1338.photobucket.com/albums/o698/admiralhip/BRlwXCLCYAEAQjk_zps565a01cd.png

    Icons of different Web sites are next to these weird URL and if I click on that it will bring me to the site that the icon is for. I was hoping that someone could tell me what to do to solve this problem without completely uninstall firefox or restart all factory default. Thank you.

    Resolved, just uninstall the toolbar and it fixed the issue.

  • I linked one chose "remove from toolbar" on the new "drive mode" icon and it removed my entire address bar and I can not find the place where to pick up

    With the latest update of firefox (38.0.5) I take away the new features that I would never use the button 'save for later '. Then the notification popped up in the navigation bar for the new feature 'in player mode', which is another thing that I'll never use. I right click it and chose "remove from toolbar". This action removed my address bar. My navigation bar is still there, but the address bar to enter a URL has disappeared. It's just my research and my download bar and buttons of AdBlock. Usually, I have my bar address/URL/navigation to the left of the search bar with the navigation arrows. When I go to customize I can't find the address bar. I have a particular look, I prefer and would not have to go through the restoration of values by default if I have to. Maybe I'm just missing something stupid obvious and I just need someone to point out. Thank you!

    I found this link

    https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/reset-preferences-fix-problems

    And was able to "Refresh" my firefox. Now the long process of return to my silent settings I prefer. Really disappointed with firefox for the first time. Not the solution I was hoping.

    Details on how to remove the 'drive mode' icon of a book of the URL bar it would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

  • I don't have a navigation bar and firefox does not open in safe mode to return to the default configuration. Does not work reinstall. Any help please.

    I have no navigation bar since I closed it to have more space on the screen. It will not re - open. Firefox does not open in safe mode, but immediately opens in normal mode with the new configuration incorrect, so I can't reset to default configuration. I deleted Firefox and re-installed and it always opens with the same faulty configuration. Why doesn't Firefox give me the safe mode dialog box, why can I not re - open the navigation bar, and how I can do those two things, please? Firefox is currently unusable for me without a navigation bar with no access to the default settings in safe mode. I can't search the extensions that I use since I have no navigation bar to go to tools, modules, Extensions.

    This has happened

    Each time Firefox opened

    I closed the navigation bar to make more space on the screen and I could not re - open.

    Hi simonak10820071,

    Try this: -.

    The default "Save as" dialog Acrobat DC is different from the dialogue box you had in earlier versions of Acrobat, it also allows you to record in the clouds and previous locations that you saved the files. It is possible that when Acrobat tries to connect to the 'cloud', it runs into problems. You can try to disable this feature to see if this brings your backup in the back of the box: open Acrobat Preferences, then go to the "General" category and uncheck "show the online storage when you save files:

  • How can I open a new tab and enter automatically in the address bar and not in the Firefox search engine?

    When I open a new tab I see Google search smooth with large beautiful Firefox logo on the top center of research, and makes me automatically type in this research. Is there a way to automatically enter address bar when a new tab is opened? Just moved to Firefox and it's quite annoying.
    Thanks to all the advice.
    -Karl

    Looks like you have set browser.newtab.url to Subject: House which opens the default home page in each new tab. The simplest thing to do is to reset this preference so that instead of the new tab page:

    1. Type of topic: config in the address bar and press ENTER.
    2. To ignore the warning, press the big button "I'll be careful, I promise!
    3. In the search box, paste browser.newtab.url
    4. In the search results, click browser.newtab.url , and then choose reset.

    Otherwise,.

    1. Custom installation tab.

    2. Open the modules (Ctrl + Shift + A Manager; Mac: Command + shift + A), then the Extensions category.
    3. Next to the new custom label, click on the Options button.
    4. The value of any page you want to open in each new tab (topic: newtab is the value default; about: home is the default home page) and make sure that "Focus in the URL bar" is not checked.
  • Address bar and the search bar locked on Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer)

    My address bar is tiny (20%) percent of the width of the window and the search box is about 80%.

    I want to make the address bar wider than the search box.

    The toolbars are not locked.

    When I place the mouse pointer on the gap between the address bar and in the search box, I get the <->icon, but I'm not able to slide left to right.

    I tried to change the DPI (I don't think that IPR has nothing to do with it)

  • When you click on the name in the address book - email address looks different in the email address bar and can not be sent - why?

    I've been using thunderbird for a few years - in the last month when I tried to send e-mails, I have a problem with some of them as part of the email address changed when I insert it ino the address bar and has quotes around the first part of the address before the @. I tried to remove the addresses and re - insert them but the same thing happens. If I go to the address bar and delete the commas that the email is sent - can I overcome this problem without having to enter each email? I send emails to many people and change each one who has the problem takes a lot of time. Not all e-mail addresses has this problem. Many thanks - Tim

    The space is not evident.

    The most common and probable cause is you copy paste the email address.
    This can very easily copy paste an empty space and empty spaces do not appear as an easily detected error. But this is the only scenario that I found which produces the question you had - incorrect address Contact framed by double quotes around part first - pre @ but the blue link is good.

    It does not occur if you have an e-mail address is sent to you in an e-mail and you use the left click on the email address and select "add to address book".
    It should not happen if hand typed unless an error is made.

  • How can I get rid of ZoneAlarm engine of search in the address bar and of the way page search box?

    I downloaded ZoneAlarm firewall. There you install Chrome and choose its search engine when you download. I had heard that it was removed easily later. I have reset Google in the search bar upper at right.
    Now Firefox starts OK, but every time I will use a tab to open another search ZoneAlarm window is in the address bar and in the area of research of the Center, and Google search is in the top right search bar. How can I get rid of all ZoneAlarm search everywhere?

    I have the latest version of Firefox and Windows 8.1.

    You can check if you have the search engine of ZoneAlarm file in the browser\searchplugins folder in the Firefox program or in the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.

    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)

    You can delete the search.json file and the possible search - metadata.json and the 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 "browser\searchplugins" folder in the program of Firefox and the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.
