• Cannot search from the address bar or search even in safe mode

  Hello

  I can't search in the address bar or search, even in safe mode. I refreshed Firefox, delete all cookies, empty my cache, but nothing works. Also, I get a message that does not respect the firefox sync, and "this object pushed." I know that these are all different questions, but I suspect that there is a link.

  I have very limited FTP and general computer knowledge, so please take I don't know anything when he answers! Really hope you can help!

  Thanks in advance.

  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:

  • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox

  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.

  Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problem.

  See "create a profile":

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/Profile-Manager-create-and-remove-Firefox-profiles
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues

  If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile already used in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting more problems.

• Strange behavior when searching from the address bar

  Hi all! I tried to remove google as the default search provider in firefox. To do this, I did these two things-

  -Duckduckgo moved to the top of the list in the firefox search box and set it as the current research.

  -Put the URL 'https://duckduckgo.com/?q=' keyword and keyword.enabled to true.

  However, this makes my search from the location bar (single word and several Word channels) still return google.

  There seems to be something to do with the entry of google search into the firefox search bar. If I remove that, it behaves as expected - single word searches then return an error "Cannot find server" (not quite what I wanted but probably correct behavior) and several Word searches go to Duckduckgo.

  Any suggestions on how to solve this problem without removing the option of completely google search would be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance

  It is supposed to function as described in this article, it seems that you have followed: search bar location | How | Firefox Help. I see no reason for the presence or absence of a plugin of search engine related. You have additional modules that could touch location bar behavior?

  You can try this: create a clean profile Firefox. Which will work around the current modules and custom, settings have fresh data bases of fresh settings and a cache folder.

  Close Firefox and starts in the Profile Manager, as described in the management profiles. Any time want spending profiles, close Firefox and come back to this dialog box.

  Change your keyword preferences and see if they work in the new profile. A little luck?

  All of a sudden, I can't do anything type in the address/search bar in Safari. I tried everything I can think of to fix it. I searched the internet and support forums of apple, did a restore from a previous backup and finally reinstalled OS x. Nothing works. The only way I've gotten on the apple web site is because my home page has been set to Xfinity, and it has a search capability. Any ideas?

• Cannot search with the address bar of firefox

  COR - el and another person suggested bugs. None worked. As suggested by Cor - el, I now get keyword enabled as TRUE. Research still does not work. It changes search word to a URL, however - a step in the right direction perhaps.
  Sorry, I could not put it in a replt thread, but it would not allow me.

  Hello

  Try this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/
  

  The add-on that above is very simple: when installing, it backs up then resets your search and preferences of the home page to their default values, and then to uninstall. This affects the search bar, search bar URL, and the home page.

  It will be useful.

  I have the new firefox 43, when I type things in the bar recipient, my most used web sites pop up at the top and I press down arrow once and get the website, I want, but now article 1 is always the search option, I don't don't need or want it to be there I have a search to the search bar.

  How do I 100% completely remove the search from the address bar icon so that the 1st item in the list goes back to be web addresses?

  PS I also find it very disconcerting that during this update we asked me if I wanted to search option/suggestions in the address bar and I said no, but when I was looking into options to get rid of this 'new' this option has been activated.

  What others of my preferences during the installation you just ignore?

  This is a new feature in Firefox 43. To turn it off to do this:

  1. Go about: config in Firefox
  2. Click on the I'll be careful button
  3. Locate the Boolean browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete
  4. Change the false value

  Note: You may need to restart Firefox for the changes to take effect.

• Cannot restore the functionality "search the Web from the address bar.

  I just picked up my system of the Funmoods virus. In the process, I uninstalled all Funmoods components and then clean my registry with Malwarebytes. However, I can pick up is no longer the web from the address bar in Firefox. I followed the instructions in the help section of Mozilla on this (here: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/search-web-address-bar). My settings are:

      keyword.URL            default     string
      keyword.enabled     default     boolean     true
  

  In my view, here are the correct settings, but clearly they are wrong or there are other I need to adjust the settings. Can someone point me in the right direction on this?

  The only thing you would lose a rest is your extensions, nothing else. However, try this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/

  I've just updated Safari to 9.0.3 this morning.

  Anyone any idea of it please.

  Today, I have problems with the Safari address bar.

  Direct search through the address bar does not work.

  I can open the first site that I type in. After that, when I select the address bar, the former Web site title will remain as I type. I can repeat that these steps and all text will be overlap in the address bar. No Web site can be opened with Safari. Below a screenshot of my address bar.

  

  I am running the latest version of Safari and OS X...

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Since the installation of the latest update on my iPad, I'm unable to type a new address in the address bar of Safari. I can access the Web sites of my favorites, but when I press the address bar Safari closes its doors.

  I reset holding home and power button at the same time. I did that 4 times. I also left all the settings.

  I am also unable to access the server from imessage. I don't know if these two things are related, but the two that happened after the update to iOS 9.2.1
