In preferences, search option is missing between the general and the content.

I use Firefox 40.0.3 on OSX and I tried to set the search parameters. When I go into Preferences, I don't see the search catgergory. If I remember correctly there used to be between the general and the content, but it just disappeared. I was wondering if there is a way to recover or if these options have been moved to another location in the new version.

I restarted Firefox in safe mode to disable all addons. It is not yet here.

You have disabled browser.search.showOneOffButtons [set this pref to false] in Subject: config?
Enter about: config in the URL bar and press ENTER. then use the search box at top.

Options > Search "tab" disappears when this pref is toggled to false. Search preferences back to the old system where the 'controls' are in the search bar - manage search... engines such as those used before Firefox 34.

  • The tab broadband is weak and his option is missing in the wireless radio software

    Hi all

    I just bought this model Lenovo ThinkPad X201T 2985-DLG tablet before yesterday. Since then, I try to use my card SIM G3. Tab broadband is weak in the dial-up connections, and I noticed that his option is missing in the wireless radio software.

    I contacted the support (the Saudi side of IBM) SBM team and they gave me with a link to a very long list of drivers the most that are for other versions of the OS. I noticed that most of the suggested drivers were already made and the Thinkpad is up-to-date including the bios.

    to confuse more, I do not have my SIM card so far. I'm in the fight to get the bandwidth (WWAN) living.

    Any suggestions or solutions will be highly appreciated.

    Yet once, you do not have wimax option, your wireless card is only Intel AGN.

  • Photosmart C6280: Wireless connection Option is missing from the installation all-in-one Photosmart C6280 on Windows 10

    When I was installing the complete drivers for my old C6280 Photosmart all-in-one on my new laptop Windows 10, I arrived at the place where it asks what type of connection, I have between my computer and my camera.  It provides USB and wired Ethernet in option, but there is no available wireless option, although when I click on 'Help' the third option consists of the description.  With my old laptop, I was able with print and scan wireless, so I expect to be able to do the same thing on my new laptop.  All the buttons on the installation software were grey, including the 'Back' and 'Cancel', until I made a choice, so I clicked on wired Ethernet, and buttons 'connect a printer later', hoping the third option would be there when I went to the desktop application 'Add a device' later.  No chance!

    Connect the printer via an Ethernet cable to your router and follow the installation instructions.

  • The search box is missing in Windows Explorer and the search is not available from the Start button on the desktop

    I want to search my hard drive for a file.

    I open explore and there is no search box, or all the options to search.

    I click Start.  There is no box that allows me to type in the name, I'm looking for.

    Any suggestions on what setting or service may be disabled or stopped which disables the search options?

    Hi jhblzk.  The name of the service is Windows Search, but even if it has been disabled, you should always see the box "search programs and files".  No harm to check though.  Press the Windows key and r on your keyboard and type:

    services.msc

    and click OK.  Scroll down the page until you find and make sure that the startup type is set to automatic (delayed start) and the service status is started.  If this is not the case, click on start and OK your change.

    If the service does not exist, go to programs and features in Control Panel and click on "turn Windows features turn on or off.  Scroll down and check Windows Search.  OK, your changes and restart.  The search box appears when you click Start now?

    Original title: Administrator group of experts.

    On the Admin Panel when I want to close I normally press start and the "closing". However the button turn off disappeared and only shows button "quit". In addition the 'run' button is gone as well. How to restore it back to normal?

    It will help with these situations... and, this lesson, I've added a few new commands to my answer of registry file generic copy/paste for these kinds of things:

    If you see things like this:

    You do not have sufficient security privileges to restore your system.
    The System Restore tab is missing from the my computer properties.
    System Restore has been disabled by group policy.  To turn on system restore, contact your domain administrator.
    The System Restore tab is available, but the turn off System Restore (disabled by Group Policy) box is grayed out.
    The task manager has been disabled by your system administrator.
    The registry editor has been disabled by your system administrator.
    The task manager has been disabled by group policy.
    The registry editor has been disabled by group policy.
    The command prompt has been disabled by your administrator.  Press a key to continue...

    The usual advice are something in the sense of "something has been disabled in the group policy...". ", and it is probably true that something has been disabled, but you know what something is and what it takes to do about it.

    If you are using XP Home Edition, you will get away with advice to use the Group Policy Editor, because there is no Group Policy Editor in XP Home and that really doesn't tell you where to look in group policy, even if you run the Group Policy Editor.

    You need a complete solution that works for all versions of XP and requires no hunting around in the Group Policy Editor or registry to find where things are that have been disabled.

    Unless you have disabled these things on purpose, chances are good that your system has a malware infection.  The malware knows what tools you use to try to find and remove, for the malware disables the things you are more likely to consume and prevents them from running if you can't find the malware and remove it.

    If your system has this kind of affliction, all malicious software tools you currently use or have used failed to protect your system so that you can expand your horizons malware detection and prevention to prevent these kinds of afflictions in the first place.

    The malware will be happy you trick into thinking that you need to so something drastic to fix your system - as a facility repair, system restore point or a total reinstallation of XP.  This is what it would be like you, but these measures are not necessary.

    You must solve the immediate problem of the tools does not, then scan your system for malware when you are finished.

    No matter what kind of malware you've used analytical tools, they are unlikely to solve this problem, because they cannot tell if the changes made to your system have been on purpose (you or an administrator who makes them) or some malware changed them, so the analysis tools will let these things alone (it's usually a good thing).

    If your system is afflicted in this way, there are probably other things that also do not work - like the registry editor, System Restore and the command prompt, so fix them all at once even if you have not discovered they are broken again.

    These commands from registry removes the registry entries that are stop opening programs.  Although the registry entries do not exist, these commands are safe to run and will work for all versions of XP.

    Before making any changes to your registry, back up the registry with this free and popular tool:

    Locate the file enableit.reg on your desktop and double-click it.

    Alternatively, you can right-click on the enableit.reg file, choose open with... and select the registry editor.
