Control options seems to be disabled. Default search must change.

Went to see if I could change the default search, as I don't like yahoo. The box options appears in white. Discussed under Tools, and the option button is also empty...

Hello

Users who experienced dialog boxes empty options had the Ghostery installed extension. If you have installed so can you try disabling it to see if that allows you to access the options? You can also run Firefox Safe Mode to see if this allows you to change your options.

  • search options disappeared after updating firefox to address the slowness. How to make a comeback (there is no default search engine and no option)?

    the search box (with a magnifying glass to the left of it) is completely insensitive and there is no search option in the options of the menus/screens. Assistance from the address field in the search bar appears only intermittently to perform an Internet search for key words. a solution would be greatly appreciated.

    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.

  • Network Variables custom control Option Disabled

    Hi all

    I am creating a network variable in a cRIO project using a predefined custom control... I've done this hundreds of times before in other projects... For some reason any "custom control" option at the bottom of the drop-down list data type is disabled...!

    I'm sure it's something very simple, but I'm well and truly stuck now... I'm not still connected to my RIO? I have not activated the network connection again...

    See you soon

    I have now found the solution... This is a bug... Just stop LabVIEW (completely, not only the project) and restart and voila... the option to wake up...

  • default search engine doesn't seem to work

    My default search engine is set at Google.  But lately, all my research are made by Yahoo.  Can't understand why?

    Hey johnfromnorth andover!

    I certainly want to have the search engine, that I show in Safari.  This should be a quick thing to check and sometimes happens when a pop up or download requests to change the default search engine in your browser.

    With Safari open, click on Safari in the upper left corner next to the logo .  Choose Preferences from the Safari menu and search.  That should allow you to set Google to Yahoo! search engine  Who should get it switched to you and if not, try to check the Extensions or add-ons in Safari to ensure that Yahoo! is not on for either of them.

    See you soon!

  • How to restore Google as my default search without having to reset the Search Options every day?

    I see that other people have this very annoying problem. Whenever I restart my computer, Firefox become my default Google search Yahoo. It is irritating as hell and totally unnecessary.

    Please tell me, IN the LANGUAGE of the LAYMAN, why this happens and how to fix it.

    If this problem occurs only after you stop and start Windows back up again, it does not occur if you just quit Firefox and start Firefox back up again?

    Given that Firefox does not have its own settings of default search engine, the more likely culprits would be:

    (1) utility software like CCleaner which can be planned to serve the various data browser at startup. You use something like this? If you do, go into the settings and set it to not to touch any data of Firefox.

    (2) other software wishing to perform searches of Yahoo! with a special address which gives a bouncing effect to the Publisher of this software.

    To get an idea of who could be the culprit, you can copy the address in the address bar when viewing a Yahoo! results page and paste it into a response.

    Standard address using the Firefox built-in Yahoo search plugin:

    https://search.Yahoo. com/yhs/research? p = firefox & ie = UTF-8 &hspart = mozilla & hsimp = yhs-001

    Your results page of address list other parameters?

    If you find that you are losing your search engine preference whenever you exit Firefox and start Firefox (no restart of Windows), see this article for suggested troubleshooting steps: How to fix preferences that will not save.

  • My default search engine has been on anything other than Google. How to switch this back?

    Somehow my default search engine has been changed to Google to what is called "My Web Search". I want to switch to Google, but I can't figure out how. I disabled the plugin and removed my options of search engine in the top right, but nothing has changed.

    You have My Web Search installed; Look under Tools > Modules > Plugins. He could have grafted in on something that you have installed. Always seek and opt-out when installing other programs and Add-ons that you install from sites other than the site of Mozilla Add-ons. My search on the Web is considered malware/adware/spyware by many. You must remove it.

    Step 1. You can check if you have one of these installed ' Fun Web products ' :
    Control Panel > add or remove programs: Ask.com Bar, my search bar, of the MyWay Bar speed, my search on the Web Bar, Fun Web products Easy Installer
    See:
    http://www.safer-networking.com/removemywebsearch.php

    http://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/troubleshooting+plugins#Manually_uninstalling_a_plugin

    Step 2 You may need to change a preference to reset your default URL/location bar search engine:
    -Enter Subject: config in the URL/address bar and press the Enter key
    -If you see a cautionary, accept it (promise you'll be careful)
    -Filter = keyword.url
    -Under the filter, right-click on the keyword. URL and choose "Reset".
    -Restart Firefox (file > restart Firefox)
    See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Keyword.url

    Step 3 You may need to reset your homepage. Firefox can open multiple home pages. Home pages are separated by the ' | ' symbol.

  • Yahoo was made to my default search engine.

    I tried countless different methods of deleting files Spigot, wajam files, but I can't seem to go in. Chrome doesn't have this problem. I love Mozilla, but I'll pass if I can't get this resolved. The source of my problems was download Bittorent. I removed Bittorent, Spigot and wajam. But that will change my default search engine. I remove Yahoo as option and changed it to Google. I reset my computer, but Yahoo is still there. Normally I don't mind Yahoo, now I'm furious because of the principle of the matter. Help, please.

    Hi David, able to reset your home page you use the steps in these articles:

    Your selected page should appear when you launch a new window (Ctrl + n).

    • If you go back to Options and your setting was not justified, you may have something called SearchProtect on your computer. Which must be removed through the control panel.
    • If your setting is retained, but the new windows ignore, an extension can still be in control. Please see those again.
    • If Ctrl + n is good, but your icon or the shortcut of Firefox launches the wrong page, check to see if the shortcut has been hacked (see steps below).

    To check the shortcut: right-click > properties > Shortcut tab (if it is pinned to the taskbar, you need to right-click > Mozilla Firefox right-click > properties > Shortcut tab.) For 64-bit Windows 7, the 'target' should be either not less the following:

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
    

    Anything after this could force Firefox to launch a specific page.

  • How can I change the default search engine in firefox 14?

    I tried to change my default search engine, does not. A read a lot of the help file, but it seems that none of the recommendations had jobs. The problem is in the search box in the upper right where the default from now (the search engine when I open firefox for the first time) is Yahoo. I had tried to change it to goggle by clicking on the drop down arrow and select a new search engine, but does not take effect. Yahoo is still in effect so that the search engine despite this change. I also followed the advice of some to change the default engine by typing "subject: config" in the address bar and some values but still after the opening and closing firefox again, Yahoo is still the default search and could be that the change by selecting from the drop-down search menu.

    Thank you for your answer but I managed to fix the problem already. What I did is to select from the dropdown to Ask.com (it seems that it is the only option that work) a window appeared asking me what a search engine change was made, and if I would use Ask.com to be the search engine or to maintain using Yahoo.com. I chose to use Ask.com and disable the protection on the search engine. Toke effect change and after that I could change from the drop down list a search engine like Google. I put a note above in parenthesis closed, that it seems Ask.com works as I tried before to change the search engine Google, but no window came to ask me if I want to change the default search engine.

    Once again thanks a lot to you two, for the reply and for your precious time to try to solve this problem.

  • Set the default search for 6.0 engine.

    He continues to show upward with the Firefox search engine. I did search engines to manage and he refuses to stay the same. I don't want Firefox as my default search engine. I even remove the Firefox search engine and it is just when I restart.

    I have searched and tried several things including this suggestion of config and nothing works.

    To be clear, it is for the search engine in the bar, NOT the search home page.

    I found this thread while searching for the solution to the same problem. It seems to be part of the test pilot program that runs automatically to people who are on the beta version of Firefox. I fixed the problem by going into my Add-ons and looking at the extensions. There should be one called with something on a study of usefulness of search results. If you disable or remove this extension, the option to "Search the Web" firefox will disappear for good.

  • How Swagbucks my default search engine?

    When I turn on my default search engine, Swagbucks is not one of the choices. Visit this site did not do anything to add to the list of search engine options. It seems that Firefox only wants me to choose among search engine options they list - or what I am doing wrong?

    Hello

    I had a look at Swagbucks and it doesn't seem to be a search engine, but a site that you must register to use.

    I think they have an extension that you can install that will allow this feature to link, but be aware that it is installed from outside the site of the add-on and may include banner ads in the browser.

  • A search engine click always uses the default search engine

    In the search bar, I type the word London and press enter and get the results of a search Google (default search engine).
    I click on the magnifying glass to open the search drop-down list and click the icon for Wikipedia (to perform a search on Wikipedia for the word London). However, the results are not Wikipedia but are the same as my previous research on Google. The only way I can get the research to be done on Wikipedia is to change Wikipedia to my default search engine.
    Am I misunderstand how the search with a single click is supposed to work, or you can tell me what I need to change to make it work?
    Thank you

    Using the arrow keys or tab to the search engine icon had the same result by clicking on the icon to directly search engine, any search engine was selected the search is always performed by the default search engine.

  • Disable Firefox search and/or stroke shortened on Android

There doesn't seem to be an option to turn it off in the settings, nor is it an application separate to disable entry. Is there a way to disable this shortcut or search entirely?

  • I can't use FF to connect to simple Web pages. A lot of pages javascript seems to be disabled. have deleted the C:/p/moz FF x 86 files and reinstalled. No change.

    I am running Firefox 24.0 with Windows 7. I can't use Firefox to connect to simple Web pages. When I try to use all the features of sites Web which include cookies of the browser does.
    Many functions JavaScript seems to be disabled, that many parts of Web pages do not work. I went to: Tools > Options and checked all the settings for something suspicious, it looked good.

    This happened a few months at least. I tried to remove Firefox yesterday, by deleting this file: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox and then ran the Mozilla Firefox
    Installer and it did reinstall correctly, but the problem persists.

    I only use Firefox for browsing the web. I also use other browsers with my install W7: I use Opera, IE and chrome, they all work great. The only extensions that I use are the Manager session 0.8.0.8 and selector Group tab 0.1. My Silverlight, Shockwave, Acrobat, and Flash Player are all up to date. I use the default theme. I use all services.

    I don't know what else to do. Help, please.

    Alright. I checked the stuff you guys recommended on the preferences and profiles. I didn't know a lot of this stuff, I do now, that's really useful, thanks!

    I checked the help > information on troubleshooting and I went there to reset Firefox. Which caused the browser working properly again, so I guess I was wrong earlier when I said that it "broke the program."

    I looked at the data I'm in sync. I started the browser synchronization again. This time I unchecked individual boxes, starting with preferences, then I synchronized and looked to see if the problem is back. It turns out that what he was doing was data "bookmarks".

    I guess that the only thing left to do is clear my sync data.
