Google searches in the navigation bar

When I type in the bar of navigation... the place where you type in the URL you want to 'go'... and what I'm typing isn't going to a url... it goes to google.

I don't want firefox 'useful' send everything I type or spell it to google or someone else... but not to google because they are more really bad!

How can I disable all THE 'useful' (for google, not for me!) of what I type in the url bar?

I next to a gadget to search separate when I type in the research. Where I have to use google now that they broke scroogle.

Thank you. I went to your first link and take a look. Then...

I typed 'about:config' in the 'location bar.
 clicked past the warning
typed 'keyword.url'
double clicked on the second of two lines, which had said
 'keyword.enabled' ... 'true'
it now reads
 'keyword.enabled' ... 'false'
Now firefox just gives me an error when I type stuff that is not a url, or is a garbled url, into the location bar. Big Brother is no longer watching. From the location bar anyway. I'm sure my 'helpful' browser is still reporting lots of other stuff to Big Brother. Mozilla seems to be a subsidiary of google.

  • Adjust the URL boxes & search on the Navigation bar for different widths and the wider area of URL provider.

    Years my URL address in the Navigation bar has stretched far enough to allow most of the display URL. An icon and then reload, the box of search engines (Bing, dictionary, etc.) would be about one-third of the width the area URL. After that, the rest of the bar is used for House/bookmarks/history/etc
    Now, without knowing when it emerged, the URL box is too narrow to see but a few letters of the URL that is registered and its menu drop-down is the same. I can find no way to expand it. Everything works fine, but I would like to have the views appearing as before. I kept all the most recent updates and version 20 now. I don't think that has happened because of the update - at least not immediately. As this happened, my Bookmarks Toolbar disappeared. I made sure that the bar has been verified and manually put all the bookmarks that I had. It's OK now. I thought that the way back that could replace the cursor to a point on the side of the boxes in the Navigation bar and get an arrow icon that would expand or restrict the boxes. I'm not sure about that, but I know that it doesn't work like that now. Any help would be certainly appreciated! Thank you.

    I did not send photo since the default restore and put back old icons worked this time. I had tried with attention before, but the spinner was still missing then. Thank you for your help. CFB-

    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.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problem.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile already used in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting more problems.

  • How to display the navigation bar in firefox 30

    I downloaded the version 30 this AM there is no navigation bar or the option for one. On the view menu, the navigation bar is not identified. If you go to customize the toolbars to hide has no option to toolbar navigation. I turned on all the display options, but do not get the navigation pane. The only way you can see is by placing the cursor on the lower part of the tab bar. It is truncated with about 2/3 of the width of the page. I want the width of the entire page and I want it to be displayed permanently. All I can find is for people who want to hide navigation bar, and I searched through those thinking maybe I could debone it, but no luck.

    Another problem is that if you use colorful tabs only the tab you are on is colorful - the rest are grayed out. What the hell happened?

  • Strange behavior when searching from the address bar

    Hi all! I tried to remove google as the default search provider in firefox. To do this, I did these two things-

    -Duckduckgo moved to the top of the list in the firefox search box and set it as the current research.

    -Put the URL 'https://duckduckgo.com/?q=' keyword and keyword.enabled to true.

    However, this makes my search from the location bar (single word and several Word channels) still return google.

    There seems to be something to do with the entry of google search into the firefox search bar. If I remove that, it behaves as expected - single word searches then return an error "Cannot find server" (not quite what I wanted but probably correct behavior) and several Word searches go to Duckduckgo.

    Any suggestions on how to solve this problem without removing the option of completely google search would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    It is supposed to function as described in this article, it seems that you have followed: search bar location | How | Firefox Help. I see no reason for the presence or absence of a plugin of search engine related. You have additional modules that could touch location bar behavior?

    You can try this: create a clean profile Firefox. Which will work around the current modules and custom, settings have fresh data bases of fresh settings and a cache folder.

    Close Firefox and starts in the Profile Manager, as described in the management profiles. Any time want spending profiles, close Firefox and come back to this dialog box.

    Change your keyword preferences and see if they work in the new profile. A little luck?

  • And how does one remove Christmas lights that have been offered as a decoration for the top and shifts of the screen. They tend to hide the navigation bar.

    And how one removes the Christmas lights that have been offered as a decoration for the top and bottom of the screen. They tend to hide the navigation bar. Several days ago Firefox gave the 'dress-up' in a message.

    It seems that https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/christmas-lights/ is added as an extension, but is categorized as a character (lightweight themes). Go to tools > Modules then check extensions and themes, and then uninstall it.

    Now that the status bar is now the toolbar addons that I see those that are listed are all personas and they do not affect the toolbar addons you would also find a theme, and think that it must be very confused now that I no longer able to filter topics with a Google addons research - phooey.
