Is there a simple way to put Google in a new tab or OTHERWISE I'LL UNINSTALL FIREFOX despite I've used for years

I don't mind a reason any set yahoo as search engine. However Firefox should give me one of the Dwarfs users a solution to ease back to Google. I have followed the discussion threads but still find the yahoo xxxxxxx in each new tab, I asked.

For completeness, if someone stumbles across this thread in a search:

Here's how you can change your new tab page:

(1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press enter/return. Click on the button promising to be careful.

(2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered

(3) double-click the preference browser.newtab.url and enter your favorite page:

  • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
  • Blank tab = > subject: empty
  • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
  • Any other page = > full URL of the page

Press Ctrl + t to open a new tab and check that it worked. Fixed?

If the problems persist, some potential diagnoses and remedies:

If Firefox will not let you change this setting: you can have what is called SearchProtect on your system. This must be removed the control panel. If the status is 'locked' we'll need to help you investigate a configuration file "automatic".

Firefox if allows you to save your changes, but he doesn't know: one of your extensions may be the substitution of her. You can consult, disable and/or remove extensions on page modules. Either:

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

In the left column, click Extensions. Then, take a critical look on the list on the right and turn off (or remove) something unknown.

If the modification works during your session, but during the next startup is return to the unwanted page: you could have a user.js file in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). This article describes how to track down and delete the file: How to fix preferences that will not save.

A little luck?

    In the latest version of Acrobat Reader DC you can anchor the hand tool in the upper part.

    Please make sure that your Acrobat Reader DC is updated (check the update under the Help menu).

    Then click on the button at the end of the floating toolbar.

  • Is there a simple way to move an entire animation in the framework?

    Hi, I just set up my first film of simple animation in AE but have now realised it is off center in the frame. is there a simple way to reposition the entire animation?

    It is a layer that is off or it?

    There are a few ways.

    If it is a layer, place your time running on a keyframe position indicator. Select all the position keyframes. Drag the position values to move all keyframes at once.

    Or move the anchor point of your animated layers

    If it's several layers, parent your layers in a new layer and then move the parent.

    Or you need to precompose your animation and move the precomp.

  • Is there a simple way to reduce/increase the two A / track V sizes in the CC timeline? [was: Adobe CC]

    Y at - it a simple way to reduce / increase the two A / track V sizes in scenario C C?

    There are keyboard shortcuts for expand/collapse the heights of the audio track and shortcuts to expand/collapse the heights of video tracks, but not both at the same time in increments (although you can quickly develop their all at the same time).

    If you are using Premiere Pro default keyboard:

    Opt + - / = collapses / develops audio tracks

    Cmnd + - / = collapses / expands the video tracks

    Shift += develops all the video AND audio tracks

    Shift + - collapses all the video AND audio tracks

  • Can you help me? Is there a simpler way to write this short code?

    Hi, I'm quite new to coding and EDGE and think there must be a simpler way to write this? :

    sym.getSymbol("USA_animation").play ();

    sym.getSymbol("World_map").play ();

    sym.getComposition () .getStage ().getSymbol("UK_animation").$("UK").fadeOut ();

    sym.getComposition () .getStage ().getSymbol("UK_animation").$("Piechart").fadeOut ();

    sym.getComposition () .getStage ().getSymbol("UK_animation").$("people").fadeOut ();

    sym.getComposition () .getStage ().getSymbol("UK_animation").$("PeopleText").fadeOut ();

    sym.getComposition () .getStage ().getSymbol("UK_animation").$("UKText").fadeOut ();

    sym.getComposition () .getStage ().getSymbol("AUS_animation").$("AUSTRALIA").fadeOut ();

    sym.getComposition () .getStage ().getSymbol("USA_animation").$("USA").show ();

    sym.getComposition () .getStage ().getSymbol("USA_animation").$("USAText").show ();

    Can you help me?

    Obivious to increase efficiency is

    var USA_animation = sym.getSymbol ("USA_animation")

    USA_animation. Play();

    sym.getSymbol("World_map").play ();

    USA_animation.$("UK").fadeout ();

    USA_animation.$("PieChart").fadeout ();

    USA_animation.$("people"). fadeOut();

    USA_animation.$("PeopleText").fadeout ();

    USA_animation.$("UKText").fadeout ();

    USA_animation.$("AUSTRALI_A").fadeout ();

    USA_animation.$("USA"). Show();

    USA_animation.$("USAText"). Show();

    If you perform a single operation on all the symbols of the "USA_animation" child, you can also reduce somethinng as

    sym.getSymbol("World_map").play ();

    var USA_animation = sym.getSymbol ("USA_animation")

    USA_animation. Play();

    var childSymbols = USA_animation.getChildSymbols (); f

    for (var i = 0; i)

    childSymbols [i] .fadeOut ();

    I don't know if these are the best ways, but these are in a way that I could think of.

  • Is there a simple way to change a file in source Flex SDK and use?

    I never worked on the source and built.  I see an order here:

    http://opensource.Adobe.com/wiki/display/FlexSDK/get+source+code

    Y at - it a shortcut?  I'm literally lack something in a file available to the sparks that would allow me to present my flex mobile app for approval and a thing is not supposed to be addressed during the next generation.  Is there a quick way to simply build the spark.swc and replace in FB?

    In some cases can help to patch.

    If the solution is simple enough, you can just take the source file to fix, include it in your project of preservation of the original namespace, implement your correction and that's it.

    The runtime of your implementation will be loaded instead of the library.

    I hope this helps.

    It is 4:3 or 16:9? Do not know iMovie but you can do FCP or compressor so you don't need to edit as well.
