CTRL + f works not

When I type ctrl + f, rises in the search bar, but I can't type and the options are grayed out. I tried ctrl + f in safe mode and it still doesn't work. I have a lot of Add-ons and extensions and would rather not reset Firefox if I have to.

Hello

The reset Firefox feature can solve a lot of problems in restaurant Firefox to its factory default condition while saving your vital information.
Note: that this will make you lose all the Extensions, open sites and a few preferences. - that would avoid you rather, I understand. However, the old profile is left alone, so you can turn it back on.

To reset Firefox, perform the following steps:

  1. Go to Firefox > help > troubleshooting information.
  2. Click on the button 'Reset Firefox'.
  3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is finished, it will display a window with the imported information. Click Finish.
  4. Firefox opens with all the default settings applied.

Information can be found in the article Firefox Refresh - reset the settings and Add-ons .

Let us know if this corrects the problem.

Thank you.

    I use Firefox version 38.0.5, Windows 7

    Click right and using the copy in the menu works perfectly. CTRL V and Ctrl X work fine without problem.

  • How to access the address bar via the BT keyboard? (ctrl-l does not work)

    Having a whole bluetooth keyboard connected to my Android tablet, I can't really use it well with Firefox, as there is no way to reach the address bar using the keyboard. CTRL-L because it works on the desktop doesn't seem to work on Android tablet.

    Is there a different key combination to achieve this, has she been neglected (as is normally not available on Android), or am I missing something obvious?

    Are taken in charge for the keyboard shortcuts for entering text. However, you are right that the shortcuts such as ctrl + l do not work. We have an open question on this feature but do not have a precise timetable for its implementation.

  • CTRL + c does not work in ff 25

    CTRL + c does not work in 25 FF in normal mode or in safe mode.
    I use win 8.1

    Hello

    I have not heard of 25 FF origin of this particular problem, but I've heard other programs such as ZoneAlarm and QTranslate causing the problem on specific versions of Firefox.

    For example these two previous requests for support: here and here.

    The best way to test it is probably for a boot Windows safe with networking. Then see if you have the same problem in Firefox. If the problem does not appear Windows safe mode, then you can be sure that another application (security software most likely) is at the origin of the problem.

    If the issue still seems Windows safe mode then I suggest to try a restart of Firefox:

    Firefox - modules to reset and refresh settings

    This will return the default settings for Firefox. Your bookmarks and history will be saved, but you will need to reinstall your add-ons.

    Hello

    I think that your keyboard is faulty.
    Connect an external USB keyboard and check if both CTRL would work.
    If both work correctly using the external keyboard, then your internal keyboard should be replaced to solve this problem.

  • CTRL keys do not work on Portege R500

    Both CTRL keys do not work on my Portege (Vista Biz) 500.

    I guess this isn't a hardware problem. Because that both keys are not recognized even though I hardly use the CTRL button on the right.

    I don't know if it is caused by a program (newly installed). I've just updated BIOS 1.6 without effect.

    I also tried to boot the system with Linux on a USB key. Also, the keys do not work on Linux.

    Does anyone have experience with this problem?
    Can I remove the keyboard driver and reinstall it? Could someone explain the procedure?

    Thank you for all the advice

    > laptop does not respond to the Ctrl + alt + delete even before starting an OS (for example, while being in its menu of BIOS).
    The keys Ctrl + alt + delete key combination can be used ONLY in Windows OS
    It will work not in the BIOS or Windows boot has not been done!

    Finally, you must make sure that your laptop uses the latest version of the BIOS.
    If a newer BIOS is available that be updated!

    If this does not help, retrieve the device using Toshiba drive!
    If the key still won't work, then you should get in touch with an ASP in your country.

  • T410 CTRL key does not work after update BIOS to 1.45 (German keyboard)

    Dear community,

When I switch to CTRL FN in the FN key BIOS - as supposed - works like the CTRL key. But when I turn off again the FN returns to his good funtion and CTRL does not work.

  • CTRL key does not work as expected

    Original title: keyboard Help!
     
    There is a recurring issue going on with my keyboard or very probably my pc...
    Well first to start with - I use a software type "ventrilo" called "mumble" that uses the 'CTRL' key as a key to talk with others in the same precedente.* *-could be a reason
    My CTRL key seems really screw randomly until that moment, it turn on sticky keys [where ctrl has practically been pressed permanently] even if it is not enabled on the settings... which makes it really difficult to browse web site or use games because I'm unable to type.
    Even if I try to disable it by using the two keys ctrl - it does not turn off...
    When I try to copy and paste using my CTRL key left it appears just under the letter c or v when I'm trying to do, but when I do it with my right ctrl - it is successful...
    * steam question *.
    I use also a program called "steam" that allows me to talk with others and play some games - but the sticky keys seem to be really stuck on this issue, I am unable to do anything...
    Whenever I press 'a' after that it is already used once - it will remove 2 characters: example: I type AGT-> and I press 'a' once more-> deletions G and T
    or whenever I have press BACKSPACE at all during a conversation of steam, it deletes everything.
    Urgent W on it also a tab or an im window closed on...
    pressing V will paste what I had copied at all, and finally pressing z would substitute a letter - for example: za-> type z once more-> towers to zz
    I hope you understand what I'm talking... help? Thank you...

    Hello Kent,

    Let us make sure that this isn't a keyboard problem. Connect a different keyboard to see if the CTRL key is working.  If it works fine, then it is a problem of faulty device. You may need to replace the driver.

    If this does not work on the new keyboard, then it must be a setting in the software that you have installed that is causing this problem.

    As a work around, I suggest to uninstall and reinstall the drivers for the keyboard and check if this solves this problem.

    1. type of Device Manager in the Start Search box and press on enter.

    2. browse the keyboard.

    3. right click on the mentioned keyboard driver and select Uninstall.

    4. once the driver is uninstalled, restart the computer and check if the problem persists.

    Note: Windows will automatically detect the keyboard and install the necessary driver via Windows updates.

  • CTRL + f does not - FF 19.0.2

    Hello. I took a look at similar topics, but couldn't find a solution. My apologies if this is a wireless duplicate.

    In fact, my problem is that Ctrl + f does not work in Firefox. The bar of 'research' does not appear and nothing happens at all. If I use Ctrl + g, the search bar appears. But it is still really me upset that Ctrl + f will not work.

    I use Firefox on Windows 7 19.0.2, although this problem has persisted throughout the last few versions of FF. I restarted FF in safe mode, but the same problem occurs. I've also renamed localstore.rdf in my profile folder (as I read that this might help diagnose the problem), but, again, the problem was the same.

    Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the reply, John99.

    I thought that this safe mode disables the plug-ins and extensions. Now that you have told me otherwise, I fiddled with my plug-ins, and get rid of an outdated flash plug-in seems to have solved the problem!

    CTRL + f works for the moment in any case. I will introduce timely to confirm if the problem comes back.
