How do I put FF so hit enter in the address bar refreshes a page if it is already loaded?
Currently FF do not reload a Web page if you re - enter in the address bar.
For example, go to your address bar right now. Don't change anything and press ENTER. Note that nothing happens? Even if there was new data on the page, it would not show upward. You must hit refresh on the page refresh in fact.
EDIT: Good so it was a bad example... because it refreshes rofl. I can't say the same thing to happen for most of the other good sites.
I want to change it so refresh applies to hit entry in the address bar, on all sites!
Suggestions? Thank you!
The keyboard shortcut is "button"F5"or"Ctrl + F5"to bypass the cache.
I had problems if the file is on my local drive and there is an ID on the url fragment.
So I have some time to recharge without this fragment id (mypage.htm vs mypage.htm #step41)

This problem may be caused by an extension that is not working properly.
Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

Can not enter in the address bar.
Since I usually use bookmarks or pinned tabs, it's perhaps a week or more as the last, I tried to do, but when I tried today the area of the address bar is there, but completely empty and the edge of the box seems to be missing to the left and down. The mouse arrow does not a cursor change when hovered over the box and I can't enter type.
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.

Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problem.
See "create a profile":
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/Profile-Manager-create-and-remove-Firefox-profiles

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 can I stop Firefox giving search suggestions in the address bar?
From the last update, if I start typing something in the address bar, I get random search suggestions as if I was using the search instead. How can I disable this? It is kind of annoying, and it really bothers me. I read in another article that I went to about: config and checked "I'll be careful", it would stop, but I'm worried it may screw up my browser. Is there another way to solve this problem? Or do I just move a superior browser?
No it won't cause other problems as long as you do not change other preferences.

Displays no text entered in the address bar
I am running Windows 7, and today I updated to version 40.0.2 of Firefox and then encountered the following problem.
Text I entered in the browser's address bar does not appear, or appear irregularly, as by displaying only after that I get a certain number of characters.
For example, just as I type "www.aninterestingurl.com" in the address bar. Nothing actually appears immediately, even if the cursor is visible to the right. And if I select the text by highlighting, then the text will be displayed.
Please see the attached screenshot for a demonstration.
You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Tools > Options > advanced > General > Browsing: "use hardware acceleration when available.
You will need to close and restart Firefox after enabling/disabling this setting.
You can check if there is an update for your display driver graphic card and search for hardware acceleration of related issues.

Web site looks different without "www" is entered in the address bar.
Hello, I just created a web site, www.danwoodard.com. When I type in "www.danwoodard.com" everything seems as it should. However, if I omit the "www" and enter only "danwoodard.com" the site is much larger than it should be. This does not happen with other browsers on my computer. Can anyone suggest what could happen? Thank you.

just changed after the last update of firefox. It's very embarrassing because the address bar and search bar are two different entities.
CTRL + L moves the focus to the address bar
Ctrl + A then selects all the content Ctrl + Del, or a plain Del, or Ctrl + X then deletes that content.

Windows xp pro. This means that my files are corrupt? so even if I wanted to return the old version of firefox my story will be bad?
One possible cause is a problem with the places.sqlite file that stores the bookmarks and history.

Under Windows, don't enter anything in the address bar
I am running Windows and for some reason any this morning I can no longer move anything the text typed in the address bar. Pressing Enter, clicking the button arrow or using Paste & go do not work. I see other users have had this same problem but I do not see a solution for my exact configuration. I use 39.0 and on Windows 7 Professional SP1.
Sorry, what do you mean by "delete files"?
Due to the change how Firefox 39 associate keywords to bookmarks and history, the address bar is newly sensitive to corruption in the database that stores your history and bookmarks (the places.sqlite file). I think that's probably the bug you saw in other threads.
The developers are working on a solution, but that could take weeks to reach you.
At this point, the best solution is to delete/rename the places.sqlite file, but then you lose all your history, if this really isn't very attractive to people who rely on history to revisit the sites.
In case you want to try this:
Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help
- button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
- (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.
Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:
- "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
- (menu bar) File > Exit
Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename places.sqlite to something like oldplaces.sqlite.
Firefox creates temporary files related to places.sqlite and those should be renamed / remove as well. Check for places.sqlite - shm and places.sqlite - wal and rename or delete them as well.
When you start Firefox back up again, he should start a new database places.sqlite and import your last backup automatic bookmark. Can you confirm that all your bookmarks are present? The address bar works normally again?

Enter key no longer works in the address bar after updating FF
After the update of the Enter key no longer works. When I type the url directly, nor when I select in the history.
In short, FF became unusable. Now I need to install and use a less crappy browser. Update extremely sloppy, amateuristic.To Activate enter key for Web sites in the url/address bar Disable AVG Safe Searchbar, see: pressing on enter in the address bar does not work

I can hit not only enter to access a web page. Now, I hit the arrow on the right side of the address bar.

When you tap on the address bar, the impressive Bar starts. The "reload" icon"becomes a"Magnifying glass"icon You have to search for. If you select this option to search using Google you could get a result you can select. All very indirect. There must be an easy way to type a right address in and go to this website - without the intermediary of research. For example, I often type in websites secure that is not yet indexed by Google. So not useful results - and now how to directly access sites secure.
To directly access an address without the search, type the address, and press 'Enter' or 'Go' on your keyboard. (This depends on what phone or the keyboard you use, but in general it is the button at the bottom right of the keyboard).

How can I put an analog clock safe on the desktop?
Sidebar and analog clock
How can I put an analog clock safe on the desktop?
Recently, due to security problems Windows Sidebar has been made inoperative.
I was using the Microsoft clock available in the sidebar widget.
Is there any other way to get a secure analog clock available for my office?
I have Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, which I run in Aero - because I usually have enough memory for my use.
You might be able to find one online for free, but be careful when you download from. I just let the digital clock on the lower right of the screen.
