Perhaps stupidly I deleted the chrome app, thinking I want to reinstall it, but now I can't.Any ideas what could go wrong and how can I remedy this?

How can I change the address to google bar search engine?
Basically, I want to make google the search engine by default, I tried to change the thing: the url of the keyword in the config that is not working, the search engine bar is set to google, but the address bar back to Yahoo which I don't want.
The key word. Pref URL is no longer used in current versions of Firefox.
Firefox uses the same search engine (by default) for the address bar and the subject: such home page as defined for the search bar.It is more likely a problem caused by an extension.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.
- Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

Get rid of Google Custom Search
Address bar and search do "google custom search". It's pretty useless. I can't get rid of it. I want GOOGLE NORMAL. Topic: configuration settings do NOT change this.
Or just install https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/ to google your search preferences.

Maxing out CPU with Google Image search, some other sites
When I try to use Google Image search or load items of SBNation, the Firefox maxes CPU usage site and it stops responding during 10 seconds before it has loaded everything. It is a new problem that has arisen in recent weeks.
I tried to disable all addons and plugins, deleting the cookies, clear cache, downgraded version beta at 23 and none seem to make no difference.
Hello
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.
You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).
Then perform the following steps:
- Click on the orange top left Firefox button, then select the 'Options' button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to tools > Options.
- In the Firefox options window, click the Advanced tab, and then select 'General '.
- You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
- Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:

How can I delete google custom search bar of about: newtab page
When I open Firefox or a new tab I updated: newtab which is great and all. Recently, I noticed a Google search bar on the new tab page, however, it immediately affect my cursor. I type in the address normal upstairs bar. If I do not do that tedious extra step click on the address bar before typing, it opens on Google Custom Search Engine. Has no images, maps, etc. the tabs along the top. Make a simple task to find something or other but just that much more boring to do, because I have to type in the address in bar.
So I was hoping there is a way to remove this search bar Google annoying custom of my remarks: newtab?
Or at least get my cursor in the address bar, not the bar Google Custom Search.This is a screen-cap of the search bar. http://gyazo.com/d75ccdea9b9d0bb4a3d347664be73771

The Google web search results 'not fair' in Firefox
I'm having a problem using Google search on the web (toolbar and directly from google.com) in Firefox. When I search a keyword, lets say a company name and you wait to make appear the company Web site, the results include videos, articles, news, etc. None of the main company Web site are included in search results. There is no problem with Google web search in IE or Chrome.
Here's a specific example: "Mozilla Firefox" in Google search you use Firefox there are some 31,600,000 results with the top 10 being random sites on Firefox browsers. When I search "Mozilla Firefox" in Google using IE, there are only some 130,000,000 (4 times more), with the best results being www.mozilla.org/and other Mozilla sites 'main '.
I ran all the patches malware/Antivirus software recommended, reinstalled Firefox, update of a few add-ons/plug-ins I have, and made sure that Google search parameters are exactly the same for all browsers. Nothing works.
Did anyone else encounter this problem or have a guess at what may be the cause of this? I have spent a few hours trying to fix it and am willing to give up Firefox, so far that is (was) my go to the browser.
Hello, google is tracking and customization of your search history even when you are not logged in - maybe you will have to remove or erase all cookies from Google.com and see if the results change...

Google site search just keep loading forever on all sites that use it. But IE works fine on the same sites.

Hello
Please check if this happens in a new profile. If it's good, you can later copy the necessary personal data of the old profile. Firefox stores your personal data and settings to another separate location of the files/folder. A new profile would default Firefox settings (Tools (Alt + T) > Options, and topic: config ) and usually also would be vacuum of Extensions and themes (appearance) in tools > Add-ons) and their parameters. In addition, a new profile would have no previous website stored data/settings etc, (Tools > clear recent history).

Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.
See "basic troubleshooting: a new profile:
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If this new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

On the address bar, when I write something, I would get Yahoo instead of Google search results. I don't know how to change it because the Options under the Tools tab do not seem anything which changes the search engine for the address bar.
There is a hidden preference that you can edit to make it use Browse of Google search of name that has been used in Firefox 3.6
- Type of topic: config in the address bar and press on enter
- Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
- Locate the preference keyword. URL, double-click it and change its value on the link below
http://www.Google.com/search?ie=UTF-8 & oe = UTF - 8 & SourceId = navclient & gfns = 1 & q =
If after changing the preference it is still using Yahoo, there will be an add-on that is the cause. Check for modules of Yahoo and if not necessary to uninstall them. If you have the add-on of net assistant freeze.com , which can cause research go to Yahoo, uninstall this add-on - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
