• I had Google as search engine by default, when I used the address bar to search for, but Yahoo has hijacked this function and I can't get default Google.

  Windows Firefox 29.0.01 8.1

  It doesn't seem to be an easy way to reset the default search engine to use in search in the address bar. Am I missing something?

  And also, why can Yahoo turn this function is the default search engine?

  Hi gcraighammond, I just noticed that you had a problem, a right-click. To change the search engine, click with the left button on the icon and a list of search engine options would fall down.

  Yet once, it doesn't until you move the search box back to the toolbar AND to exit to customize the view.

• When you open a new tab, placing default text in the address bar, a way to change to the new page (like Google)?

  When I click on the 'plus' for a new tab, which automatically takes me to google.com so beautiful, but the cursor is in the address bar. It seems that the cursor is in the google search box, but it's not.

  When I click on "Home" the default cursor, the search field, which I think is correct. Is there a way to have FF does not by default the address for the input text bar when you open a new tab?

  I doubt it. Google controls their research and their browser and they integrate features. But you can use "Ctrl + K" to place your cursor in the search bar"in your Firefox toolbars. By pressing the key TAB a little is a waste of time since there are a lot of links before you get to the entrance area.

  There could be an extension, if it bothers some, but I don't see a valid compromise to justify the use of an extension of something that seems trivial to me.

• Can replace a Web site in the address bar in upper left, why not?

  For Firefox, my default search is https://www.google.com. Which works very well. but now (in the last day or), in the address bar to upper left, if I try to insert another Web site instead of google (google 'cut' and insert by typing "espn" (for example), it can not connect. I can connect by typing in the google box, but I don't want to do that. What has changed to prohibit this? I tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox and also tried the miracle solution.

  Hi jwsloway, I do not know why this problem would have been before, unless you have changed to use a plugin of research who have searched http Google to one using the https Google Protocol, or you can stay connected to your Google account (Google redirect), or you are using an add-on that force HTTPS on popular sites when they are available.

• How to change the address bar of search engine uses when you type in the search for something that is not Google

  I left all the Google services currently, I used Gmail, Chrome, etc... due to the recent sale of information to the Gov't and what not and even though she may or may not be true I'm sure and switched to Firefox and a different email provider.

  1. Type of topic: config in the address bar.
  2. A warning appears, click on "I'll be careful, I promise!
  3. Type browser.search.defaultEngine in the search at the top of the page box.
  4. Double-click the item that appears.

• When opening new tab I'm headed to Google, but the cursor remains in the address bar. Anyway to automatically move the cursor to the google search bar?

  Thank you in advance. I upgraded to firefox 4, and since then, I had a problem. When you open a new tab, I chose to be directed on google.com. In the past my cursor automatically went to the search bar on this page when I open a new tab. After the upgrade, the cursor remains right in the address bar, but I would like it moves automatically into the bar of google search on the page. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks again.

  What extensions do you use?

  A new tab opens by default like a Virgin tab (topic: empty).
  
  If this isn't the case, then an extension has changed this behavior.

• How do I change default search engine in the address bar?

  I know that in previous incarnations of Foxfire I could use about: config and change Keyworld.url to change my search engine default. I recently reset my Foxfire because I had problems with the original site and now it is set by default to Google. I don't want to use google. How can I change this? I don't want a search bar, I don't want to make a difference in a search bar. I want to just the address bar to work the way I have always worked it for me before. Can someone help me?

  You can change the search provider from the search bar that is automatically in Firefox by clicking on the arrow pointing down and put in service of your choice.
  

  If you want a custom search engine, you can access this Web site, click the arrow and click on "Add < custom engine >. Example below:
  

  If you don't want the search bar, you can "hide" it view by clicking on the button 3-bar menu, go to 'Customize' at the bottom, and then dragging the search bar in the box features and additional tools .

  Once you change the search engine in the search bar, you can hide the search bar and search using the address bar with the provider you have chosen in the search bar.

• Why the address bar is glitched appears?

  For some reason any today locking/globe icon which means that if a site is encrypted or not, seems to have space to his right off. The address bar also become entirely yellow all of a sudden for encrypted pages. The end close the menu button dropdown is also not yellow.

  I tried to reset the FF and I saw that I have to do a bunch of settings to look and behave the way I want it so I went ahead and delete the old profile and replaced with old data, bringing the problem of the icon. I tried to uninstall and reinstall (without delete personal data) without success. I also tried to play with the toolbars, but it does not solve the problem either.

  I was wondering why it happened suddenly and wonder what I can do about this besides rebooting.

  Here's what it looks like: http://oi39.tinypic.com/2pquuc3.jpg

  Maybe a theme or extension? You can see the following tabs:

  (1) orange button to Firefox (or tools) > Add-ons > appearance

  Select the default theme.

  (2) orange button to Firefox (or tools) > addons > Extensions

  Disable all non-essential or unrecognized extensions. If a link appears above a disabled extension to restart Firefox, click on the last step.

  Any difference?

  • Use the most popular search suggestions in the Firefox search bar

  At some point in the future there are possibilities the search address bar may be combined and there is also the possibility of a new system of Search-tab under development.

• How can I change the default search engine in the address bar?

  Beta toolbar AVG changed the search engine used when I type in the address bar of Yahoo search. I uninstalled AVG completely toolbar beta, but I can't seem to find out how to change the search back to Google search engine.

  Skip this step if you also have a Yahoo toolbar
  Remove the Yahoo toolbar

  1. 'Ctrl + Shift + A' (add-on Manager)
  2. Select the piece of the Puzzle on the left side for list Extensions
  3. Find "Yahoo Toolbar" and click the "Uninstall" button and restart Firefox. (if you really need to keep the Yahoo toolbar, you can hide the toolbar instead with personal and always not to change all default search settings below)

  Then to set the default search engine used in the address bar, change the value of the keyword. URL in Subject: config to one of the values in the search of the address bar with MozillaZine.

  • Search Google (Google search results page)
    http://www.Google.com/search?ie=UTF-8 & oe = UTF-8 & q =
  1. type about: config in the location (in a new tab) toolbar
  2. If the nonsense of warning message appears uncheck the box before dismiss the dialog box message
  3. filter by keyword
  4. Right click on the key word . URL and choose 'Edit' then paste in the string of search engine Google of your choice.
  5. filter on defaulturl
  6. Right-click on browser.search.defaulturl (if it exists)and again choose "Edit" and then paste in the string of search engine Google of your choice.
  7. filter on ytff
  8. Right-click on yahoo.ytff.search.popup_src (if it exists) and again once choose 'Edit' then paste in the string of search engine Google of your choice, so adventurous maybe see if 'reset' would delete and see if went into the session next (at least not for those keeping the extension).

• When I open a tab and start typing a URL in the address bar, my goal is switched to the google search field while I type.

  When I open a new tab in Firefox, usually the first thing I do is start typing a URL in the address bar to the new tab (normally that uses AutoComplete to sites that I visit a lot). The new tab usually displays a google search page which is fine. It's there if I need it.

  Lately, however, has changed the behavior of firefox when I open a new tab. After that I opened a new tab, my goal is taken from the address bar in the google search box. I mean not the Firefox search box either. I mean the search box on the google page. This occurs after I already started typing if I get the first letter or 2 of what I type in the search box, while the rest began to appear in the google search box. When I type a URL I want in the address bar. Not in the search box.

  On reflection, I think that there are a few extensions that try to block or reverse this behavior of the Google search page. If you check your extensions, are one of them suddenly disabled or missing?

  You can open the page modules using either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

  In the left column, click Extensions. Then check down to the disabled extensions.
