How to LOCK the search bar?

Does anyone know how to lock the search bar so that it does not disappear whenever I press CTRL-F?

Also any ideas on how I can get it to stop auto skin to the top of the page, or at the very least, a "ding", after reaching the bottom of the page?

Thank you

Hello Chaosdruid, This is the correct behavior, ctrl + f to open the search bar, try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables some settings and disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

(If you are using an additional theme, place you in default theme.)

If Firefox is open, you can restart in Mode without failure of Firefox in the Help menu by clicking on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item:

If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

  • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
  • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
    (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

Thank you

  • How to remove the search bar in a new tab window so that I can have nine tiles instead of only six?

    I used to get nine tiles when I open a new tab. All of a sudden I get 6 votes against and a search bar at top. All attempts to remove the search bar failed. I tried to change the rows and columns in topic: config and I learned about the use of Ctrl/scroll to shrink the tiles to allow more screen. This is a dispute over what to happen. Is it possible to get rid of the search bar, or is it possible to get the nine tiles narrowed to arrive when I click on a new tab rather than having to scroll? Thanks for your help.

  • How to lock the scroll bar and several tabs to prevent them from scrolling erratically

    I have upgraded to Windows 10.
    Now the fireplace (Yes, it's the latest version) scrolls top down in erratic Web pages.
    I can't control the right scroll bar.
    Even after clicking on it or by moving up and down, either with the use of the touchpad, arrows and arrows at the top / below the scroll bar itself, it moves just everywhere anywhere on the page.
    The same thing occurs when multiple tabs are open. They scroll left and right erratically.
    Help! It's the most boring, frustrating and time consuming.
    I have already searched several forums and blogs, disabled the auto-scrolling and scrolling soft, all to nothing will do.

    On my system, the mouse pad has a mind of its own. So I opened it from the
    settings and OD "disable when mouse available.» No problem now.

  • How to restore the search bar drop-down list and the search engine icon today as it was in version FF 33?

    Some ealier time, I managed to go back to the drop down list via editing about: config and setting browser.search.showOneOffButtons to false.

    But yesterday firefox asked me to improve my search and I agreed. After that, I see ugly new tile instead of the drop-down list.

    How can I go back to find it is old menu drop-down appearance?

    "browser.search.showOneOffButtons" was a temporary pref which lasted from Firefox 34 upward through 42 of Firefox. The underlying code that have supported this preference is gone like Firefox 43.

  • How to use the search bar 'Find' in the table of contents to find the script FULL of my course?

    Hello

    My project contains voice narration with the support of chips. Start-up option "find" in the table of contents looks only bullets of text on each slide to specific words. Is there a place I can insert the full script (rather than the abbreviated chips) spoken by the narrator in my class so that the option "find" search in these words?

    Thank you!

    Hello!

    Captivate, in fact the finding of OCD to retrieve and search for the text content of slide and slide labels usage.

    What you can do to get your full script to work.

    (1) add a text caption slide.

    (2) paste is your complete script. (From slide notes)

    3) go to properties of legend text-[disable] option which does not show in the output.

    In this way, you would have all your content on the slide to search for in the table of contents, but still not visbile to users, they would continue to see the short balls.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you!

  • How can I move buttons between the address bar and the search bar?

    I use for home, Developer Web, Download and so forth, to the right of the address bar, between that and the Google bar.

    I wish that when they create a new version, they would not take away what we customize things to do. so I can get all of them back?

  • How can I get the search bar on the home page of Firefox to stop mirroring of what is in the search toolbar?

    This seems to be something new, but I usually use the built in the toolbar to search at the top right of my Firefox window to search eBay and I usually go to the Firefox default Home/Start for searches on Google page. Now, it seems that whenever I try to search from the home/start page, I get the results of any search engine is specified in the top search bar. So if toolbar is set to 'eBay' and I search something on the homepage, only eBay results appear.
    I don't want to do. I want that the Google search home page every time, no matter what is on my search toolbar. It's really annoying to have to go to the search bar engine resume Google and then my search. I often open new tabs quickly find something relevant to what I'm working on because it requires less effort to hit Ctrl + T to open a new tab that is already on the cover with my cursor in the search field, than using the toolbar where I have to take my hands on the keyboard to use the mouse. How can I fix it. This "improvement" sucks.

    I forgot an obvious solution to this problem. I just changed my homepage of "www.google.com" rather than use the default Firefox homepage. In hindsight, it makes little sense to use the default Firefox homepage as an intermediary to Google anyway.
