Firefox's search function seems to have become the HATS or caps-no specific, so that typing a word in non-caps will not find matching words with one or more uppercase letter.

Find seems to have changed in Firefox. Before, when making a (CTRL + F) to find, research was not specific or non-specific to the caps CAPS. "In other words, if I typed in"firefox"(without ceiling), it will find the words"firefox,"Firefox", or "FIREFOX", regardless of capitalization. Now, however, the function finds will only match exact same capitalization. Totally, this undermines the usefulness of the service and is a major concern. Please fix.

This has happened

A few times a week

== I noticed in during the two or two weeks.

Make sure that the "match case" box in the find (Ctrl + F) bar is not activated.

    If you click view, toolbars, then uncheck the 'Menu Bar', you get the Firefox back button?

    To turn on private browsing, you can click on the Firefox button, then 'start private browsing' or press Control, Shift, and P keys all at the same time on your keyboard.

    Also, make sure that you update with the last 11 Firefox to take advantage of security fixes and stability!

    Hi Nancy,.

    Encryption of files and folders is a way to protect against unauthorized access. EFS (ENCRYPTING File System) is a Windows feature that you can use to store information on your hard disk in an encrypted format. Encryption is the best protection that Windows provides to help you keep your information secure.

    You can make a folder and then encrypt it.

  • When I close firefox it tells me that I am closing multiple tabs. and will not let me save them. the only option is to cancel or OK.

    This has just begun. When I close firefox it tells me that I am closing multiple tabs. and will not let me save them. the only option is to cancel or OK. When I say OK and restart Firefox all my tabs go :-( This happens every time now. I know how to recover my old tabs but whenever I close Firefox it always warns me that I'm closing multiple tabs.

    Tanks for help getting Firefox working properly again
    Jim

    Do not use 'Clear history of Firefox closing' to clear the 'browsing history '.

    Using the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" is a more reliable way to restore the session data.

    • Tools > Options > general > startup: "When Firefox starts": "show my windows and tabs from last time '.

  • topic: Home Search button seems to have no function

    When I open my Firefox browser, I ask on the subject: homepage. There is the Logo of Firefox, and below that is a box of text entry with a button with the label "Search" on this subject. Under the present is a divider page with no function like and below that is the button 'Restore previous Session' (which is apparently the only thing on this page that works for me).

    When I type the search parameters in the search bar on this page and click on the search button, nothing happens. As if there is no function assigned to the button. This is more an inconvenience than a problem considering that I can search from the address bar and the search bar, but I'd rather have this problem.

    Reset the pref browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone through the context menu by default on the subject: config page and close and restart Firefox to restore the on: default home page.

    • Open the topic: config page through the address bar
    • Type in the filter bar: mstone
    • Right-click on the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone line, and then select: Reset
    • Close and restart Firefox

    If this does not help, then delete the button Delete the chromeappsstore.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder and repeat the above.

    My son put my Internet with Mozilla Firefox and it goes through the site Web of Nectar - I seem to have lost all the toolbars when I go.  I've tried right-clicking on the top, but this refers only to the tabs 'open in a new tab' etc.  The taskbar at the bottom do not straighten and I tried looking for the control panel and on the help functions.

  • I am unable to get my Firefox's search function to work. No search engine is selectable. What should do?

    I go to the small magnifying glass to try to choose a search engine, but the icon does not respond. I tried to go to options to reset the search, but I can't find answer here either. I don't know what else to do. I removed and reloaded Firefox several times, but it doesn't seem to help.

    Hello

    Refresh (called "Reset" in older versions of Firefox) can solve a lot of problems in restaurant Firefox as his default factory while saving your bookmarks, history, passwords, cookies, and other essential information.

    Note: When you use this feature, you will lose all the extensions, toolbar customizations, and certain preferences. See article Firefox Refresh - reset modules and parameters for more information.

    Refresh for Firefox:

    1. Open the troubleshooting information page using one of the following methods:

      • Click the menu button

        click Help

        and select troubleshooting information. Should open a new tab containing your troubleshooting information.

      • If you are unable to access the Help menu, type Subject: support in your address bar to bring up the troubleshooting information page.
    2. At the top right of the page, you should see a button that says 'Refresh Firefox' ('reset Firefox' in older versions of Firefox). Click on it.
    3. Firefox closes. Once the update process is complete, Firefox will display a window with the imported information.
    4. Click Finish and reopen Firefox.

    This corrects the problem? Please report to us!

    Thank you.

  • Update of today seems to have changed the interface for the bar of icons rather than a list search engine. Is there a way I can restore?

    I know everyone says that they 'hate' changes to the familiar interfaces in a first time before getting used to them, but I just personally don't like the look of the icon-tray in everything I use (it seems to overcome at least some of the usefulness of the Internet on a computer rather than on a mobile phone). I also kind of a lot of up there, search engines that not everything I can recognize immediately by icon. I know it's a minor inconvenience, but having to scroll on an icon to see the name of its search engine is quite annoying after being used to having a nice list that comes to tell you their names. Some way I can change it back to the old interface of the list?

    Open Subject: config (typed in the address bar) and turn this false preference

    browser.search.showOneOffButtons

    Then restart Firefox.

  • Firefox 4 seems to have forgotten the small progress bar at the bottom right of the screen that shows how close you were to get the web site that you just clicked to retrieve. What happened to him?

    In older versions of Firefox, there was a small rectangular window at the bottom right of the screen which got progressively filled with green squares, that your last order has been processed. This allowed you to know that the computer had received the order and close about how it would carry out the requested task. No such window does appear in Firefox 4. That has been omitted or what I have to do something to get it back?

    Click on View - Toolbars - then the module Bar, and your progress bar will be there.
