  • When you open a new window, Firefox 9.0.1 gives me a message "Go to a Web site" in the address bar, no matter which site I am for and does not display the URL I'm watching and the stop/reload button is grayed out. Is there a way to fix this?

  • How to type ' topic: config' in the address bar. Where is this bar?

    original title: what is the "address bar".

    My answer to help asked me to enter about: config in the address bar. I have this typed in the start search bar and you press on enter and nothing happened?

    Is the 'bar' another sector?

    Thank you

    The address bar in a web browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome) shows that the address of the Web site you are viewing - he starts with http://. It is located near the top of the browser window and this is where you type "subject: config."

    I am just a new user training in Dreamweaver. However, I am at a loss in how to create these images of 1 cm * 1 cm with some websites upward in their URL address bar. To be honest I don't even know what they are called or anything. Any help much appreciated.

    This image in the address bar of your web browser is called a favicon.

    There are several ways to create the image. I create mine in Photoshop or Fireworks. The image must be in .ico format and located in the root of your site.

  • If I try to type a name such as my videos in the address bar in my computer and press ENTER, it will not open.

    My name is Andrew Wissler. I have a Dell Inspiron 6000 running a 32-bit version of Windows XP Media Center with Windows Service Pack 3.  I'm having a problem where if I try to type a name such as my videos in the address bar in my computer and press ENTER, it will not open.  Instead, Windows Internet Explorer opens and a Google search results page comes up with the search term in the search box and results are presented.  Is it possible that I can enter the term into the address bar and open the folder?

    Thank you

    Hi André,.

    This is the default behavior. You will need to type the full path of the folder my videos to open in Windows Explorer. To do this, try the following steps:
    a. Click Start, click my computer.
    b. in the address bar, type the following and press ENTER: Shared Documents\My videos

  • No cursor in the address after opening new tab bar

    Hello
    After installing FF 29.0.1, when I opened a new tab, the cursor does not focus on the bar address, or something else.
    If I run FF in safe mode it works and focus on the address bar. If I disable all of my extensions manually and launch FF in normal mode it does not work.

    I looked at this thread https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/972359 already, but that has not helped.

    What can I do to fix this?

    See you soon

    OK, solved the problem.
    Some Ask program was installed that was trying to 'Demand' my home page and I wanted to use "Application" as my search engine. It was not the toolbar, but another program with a long name. Uninstalled that and I got my cursor in the bar of address once again.

  • Every folder I open it in Windows Explorer starts to run an analysis that goes anywhere in the address bar. How can I stop this?

    In earlier versions of Windows, I would allow the address bar appears at the top of any folder that has been opened.  I'm on Vista Ultimate SP2 now and I'm not sure if the same name is still assigned to this bar at the top that displays inside the location of the folder structure of windows to the folder that is open.

    It is the same field that indicates the status of your search in Vista.  This is the area, to which I am referring.  In the upper left of the folder.

    Whenever I open a folder, it starts what appears to be a search, and the progress of the present poster with the field more in more blue from the far left and go right.

    I thought that since that acts of domain the same when I do an actual search, as she does when I open a folder, that maybe Vista makes some sort of search, or perhapes an indexing function.  I disabled indexing on my system.

    But when even scan darn, or whatever it is, starts on every window I opened.  Is it that a folder with pictures, the pictures does not show until scanning, or everything he does ends or is almost finished.

    Whenever this address bar starts its thing, I can him an 'X' that appears to the right of the address field.  The blue progress bar will suddenly zip through as if it ended, but often nothing happens, like the display of thumbnails for a period after you click 'X'... as if it still makes of anything, that he was not concerned that I hit the 'X '.

    Sorry for the length of this post.  I'm strugglng to describe my question clearly enough.

    If you know what is happening and how to stop it, I'd love to help...

    Thanks for the clear explanation.  I've never heard of this problem before, but it does not sound like opening the file automatically starts the search function - a problem that could be caused by a number of things.  The first that comes to mind is a recent installation program or the Windows Update (or a corruption of the registry) that is causing the problem.  We will approach the problem systematically until we discover the problem (with the procedure with the highest probability of success first).

    Do you know when this problem started?  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.  If this started recently, I think that this procedure can solve the problem without requiring you need to go further (but I could be wrong, and the problem may be with some corrupted system files that must be identified and repaired).

    If the system restore does not work, do a startup repair, boot from the disk Installation of Windows Vista genuine (or one that you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc.  Here is the procedure: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html.  You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

    If you do not have a floppy disk, you can make a bootable recovery disk by using http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ with burning software like: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html and, of course, a blank CD.

    If this does not work, try to start in safe mode (repeatedly hit F8 key so that the start and go in safe mode with networking).  Then we will check some of your system files:

    Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

    Type sfc/scannow, go and let it run.  It will scan and try to correct some of your system files.  If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.

    While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run.  It will scan and try to solve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a cause.

    If it does not, then thanks for posting any repetitive error message in Event Viewer on startup (Start / Control Panel / administrative tools / Event Viewer).  Here's how to use Event Viewer: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic40108.html.

    This could also be malware (although I have never seeen before a kind). Let us make sure that it is not.  In Safe Mode with network (click several times F8 during the boot process) try to run anti-malware programs. To resolve this problem (if it is a problem) download, install, and run the following two programs: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php and http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html.  You can also try a free trial of Pandasoft (www.pandasoft.com).  Before you download pandasoft, uninstall all anti-virus program you currently use (because the installation and execution of two simultaneously can cause conflicts, freezes and all sorts of problems).  Once you have uninstalled your current AV program, download, install, update and scan using Pandasoft.  I think you might be amazed at how much she notes that other software missed.  Once complete, uninstall pandasoft and re - install your current AV program (unless you decide to spend that I did when I tried about 4 years ago).  You can also try the new, free Microsoft Security Essentials http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/default.aspx (with the same caveat that only program AV one ALONE can be installed and running on your system at any time). Set the scans to be comprehensive analyses and configure the program to fix any problems they find.  Restart after you have completed all the scans. http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-Vista.html , as well as the upgrade from an earlier version of the Windows section of the following: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918884.  Although this will not affect your data, settings or programs, you should always back up your data before you start just be on the safe side. If other procedures do not work, it is almost certain to work.  You can have a lot of updates to re - install (including all you need to remove service packs).  If the version on system with SP1 or SP2 preinstalled cane and the disc is an earlier version, then you will need to do a slipstream drive as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/151606-vista-sp1-slipstream-installation-dvd.html.

    I hope one of these procedures can solve your problem.  If this isn't the case, after return and we will try something else.  Return message anyway so we know how it turns out.

    Good luck!

    If this does not work, you will need to do a repair/system upgrade using the Windows Vista Installation disc authentic (you own or that you can borrow from someone).  Here is the procedure:

  • For subdirectory names appears in the address bar

    Hi all! I will do this as short and sweet as possible. Our org is part of a University, and our Web site is running on the server of the University. HOWEVER, our domain is registered through Yahoo to give us more flexibility and independence. Of course, our domain name "www.potomacacademy.org/" is what appears in the browser address bar, when someone goes to our home/index page. For some reason, any specific page, we visit, is the title to the address bar never changes, it's to never say no 'subdirectory' folder/file name. Yahoo customer service site shows only how to change it IF we use their package webhost (which we don't). So, is it possible for me to change that on my end, in the local or remote site (University server)? Thanks for your ideas - and minor exclamations, if any.

    I wouldn't say that the site was built around frames. The main url for the site is hosted at:

    http://www.gmu.edu/Depts/music/Potomac/index.html

    Frameset is probably the only page hosted for the other domain. This was done as an easy way to host another domain name. They could consider using a subdomain and redirect of www.potomacacademy.org to the subdomain. Or use a url rewriting.

    Or they might simply move the files from the site to the host potomacadacemy.org.

  • How can I return search box in a new tab? When I open a new tab, it is only to show the address bar.

    When I click on + to open a new tab, this tab shows only the address bar, no search box! This problem is created suddenly. Previously, this problem, when I opened a new tab it shows google search box and the address bar. Now, the address bar of the new tab worked for both page looking box and address bar.

    I followed: config process and it's worked. But, when I start my computer after a few more hours I see this problem! What can I do? Please tell me.

    I have attached a picture of your understanding.

    I wouldn't try a reinstall immediately. An ordinary reinstall often not made the changes that it would bring.

    user.js file will be a small file in your profile and contained text. If copy you and rename user . txt or user.js.txt it will be readable by any word processor, even if Notepad can open it is.

    Paste the content in your next reply. He can give us some clues as to what is happening.

    In fact the user.js file will change behavior of Firefox and you want to simply rename temporarily; instead of renaming a copy; in order to disable and see what happens.

    Just another thought the usual options used for newtabs

    • Subject: white - it's a plain blankpage, no bar to search it.
    • Subject: newtab - currently by default has a search bar and the tiles
    • topic: home - a search bar and some settings icons etc

    You can try one of these out by typing in the address bar Subject: House or whatever, (or try on: subject).

    It is has two troubleshooting steps simple which will help, but you don't seem to have tried yet.

    First, try fashion without failure of Firefox.
    For example, in now the SHIFT key when you click the icon to start Firefox

    The second interesting to try procedure is to create a new additional profile for test purposes. Which erases most of the settings and not be affected by file user.js or interfere with your existing settup. You get the choice what profile to use when you start Firefox.

  • When I open a tab and start typing a URL in the address bar, my goal is switched to the google search field while I type.

    When I open a new tab in Firefox, usually the first thing I do is start typing a URL in the address bar to the new tab (normally that uses AutoComplete to sites that I visit a lot). The new tab usually displays a google search page which is fine. It's there if I need it.

    Lately, however, has changed the behavior of firefox when I open a new tab. After that I opened a new tab, my goal is taken from the address bar in the google search box. I mean not the Firefox search box either. I mean the search box on the google page. This occurs after I already started typing if I get the first letter or 2 of what I type in the search box, while the rest began to appear in the google search box. When I type a URL I want in the address bar. Not in the search box.

    On reflection, I think that there are a few extensions that try to block or reverse this behavior of the Google search page. If you check your extensions, are one of them suddenly disabled or missing?

    You can open the page modules using either:

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

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then check down to the disabled extensions.

  • How to stop multiple self-switching to the address bar every time I open a new tab and try typing something anywhere outside the address bar?

    How to stop multiple self-switching to the address bar every time I open a new tab and try typing something anywhere outside the address bar? As something just wants me to use this integrated search when you type something non-Web-address in the address bar and press to enter. And the most ridiculous thing is that happens repeatedly on as every second, as I just got off the address bar and start typing again, but still he passes me in the address bar, then 3, 4 times like that. And the result is that I don't see the address of this page.

    I think that its has something to do with my AVG Antivirus, because it started the same time a Nation AVG started to appear in each new tab I opened (and which is irritating as me, I've read here on support.mozilla.org and it seems that the only solution is to completely reinstall Firefox, but I don't want to lose all my settings) but when I type something in the address bar and press enter It opens the search results in Google.

    Please try to help me, I love Firefox but I have to switch to Chrome until I fix this.

    Thanks in advance

    First of all, please update Firefox 32. 22 is no longer support is not safe. So, let us know if you still have this problem. Update Firefox to the latest version
