Japanese version of Firefox 35.0.1 using old search UI?

I just installed the en - us version of Firefox 35.0.1 on my MacBook Pro (under Snow Leopard) and the Japanese version on the Mini of my wife (running Mavericks).

I was impressed with the new UI of Firefox's search and went to tell my wife how it works, only to discover that his Japanese installation of Firefox still uses the old user interface. There is no matrix options of search engine under the search string candidates in the shortcut menu, there is no "Search" pane in the preferences. Everything is just like it used to be. I tried to use the 'Refresh Firefox' option to see if it has made all the difference, but that only forced me to restore preferences and reinstall its extensions. The search user interface is always up to date.

I was under the impression that the language of the user interface was only difference between different localized versions of Firefox. Is a common to see such a lack of parity in functionality between versions?

You will see the search in the Options/preferences tab if the browser.search.showOneOffButtons pref is set to true on the topic: config page.

You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

    You can try the following steps in case of problems with web pages:

    You can reload webpages and ignore the cache to refresh potentially stale or corrupt.

    • Hold down the SHIFT key and click the Reload button
    • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)
    • Press 'Command + shift + R' (Mac)

    Clear the cache and cookies only from Web sites that are causing problems.

    "Clear the Cache":

    • Firefox/tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

    'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

    • Firefox/tools > Options > privacy > "Use the custom settings for history" > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

    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.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see how it works there.

    A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.

    The problems of Firefox using Firefox SafeMode

    When in Safe Mode...

    • The State of plugins is not affected.
    • Custom preferences are not affected.
    • All extensions are disabled.
    • The default theme is used, without a character.
    • userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored.
    • The layout of the default toolbar is used.
    • The JIT Javascript compiler is disabled.
    • Hardware acceleration is disabled.
    • You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 15.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.

    If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.

  • Just downloaded latest version of Firefox, but each site brings no reliable error using Firefox, but same sites are ok with IE and Chrome

    I have Windows 7 family on a laptop. I just downloaded the latest version of Firefox (v25) and Google as default search engine. Any site I enter in Google, I get the message 'Not reliable' site. I typed in BBC, Firefox etc. The message is:

    This connection is Untrusted

    You asked Firefox to connect safely on www.google.com, but we cannot confirm that your connection is secure.

    My virus checker is Norton.

    I read that the support forum and my date and time are correct. I have IE and Chrome with Google like search engine by default and is not the message when you access the BBC, Firefox etc.

    This is the first time that Firefox has been downloaded to the laptop.

    Please someone has an idea what is causing the problem.

    I had installed BrowserSafe. As soon as I uninstalled Firefox worked properly.

    Thank you very much for the advice.

  • 64-bit version of Firefox for Windows

    Hello

    I was wondering how to get a 64-bit version of Firefox, for Windows 7. A search on the Internet shows these as being available on a few Web site:
    http://www.windows7download.com/
    http://www.firefox64bit.com/

    I guess these are genuine, but I'm confused as to why they are not available on the Mozilla site. I searched on the support forum and found an answer that is one year old (http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/782154), which indicates that a 64-bit version may be available after 12 of Firefox. Unless I am confused about the nomenclature of versioning used, the latest version of Firefox is 24. Are there still not a 64 version, but official Firefox available for Windows?

    Thank you and best regards, Ashok

    Mozilla is not a version of Firefox 64-bit for Windows operating systems. Mozilla has every evening at the alpha level 64-bit versions for Windows, but currently they are generated to verify that this channel every night, the changes are not broken on 64-bit Windows versions.

    There are a few 3rd party 64-built, like Waterfox, but these are not the official versions of Mozilla.

    I have Windows 7 and I was wondering if there was a version of Firefox called "Nightly"? The type of a Nightly.Ink file. Also, whenever I open 'Nightly' now, I get a popup of the program update and it says "update.exe". Is this a part of Firefox "Nightly" or is this a virus? Please answer this so I can relax. My email is [email protected]

    Every night (a1) and (a2) Aurora built updated every day, so if you use such a developer version you will see an update every day (sometimes more than once a day in the case of a respin). These alpha versions are more intended to be experienced testers, because you may experience stability and regression of the questions at any time. The beta version (currently Firefox 25) can be useful for testing Web sites to see if they're going to get broken in the next Firefox release and file a bug report, if necessary.

    Note that you must always install such version of development alongside a stable version and use a separate profile for each version folder.

  • waterfox claims to be a 64-bit version of Firefox. Is it? Is it safe?

    I noticed that IE provides a 64-bit version. Looking for a 64-bit version of FF I found Waterfox. He claims that it is a 64-bit version of FF. Is it? Is it safe? Are there plans for a 64-bit version of FF?

    Official Windows versions of Firefox are 32-bit. Mozilla has been the creation of test of a 64-bit version of Windows of Firefox versions, but an official release is probably not any time soon. The Mozilla developers also indicate that the 32-bit version is faster than the trial of 64-bit versions and recommend to users, including the testers stick with the 32-bit version.

    Waterfox is a 3rd unofficial version of Firefox. If you use a certain plugins will not work because they are only 32 bits, and some extensions (in particular those who have binary components) will not work.

  • I want to install the U.S. version of FF and the version in traditional Chinese characters and use them both. How can I do this

    I want to use the English US version of FF and I also want to use Chinese (traditional characters) version of fire fox. But when I tried to install each of these two versions, they merged and let me only to use the Chinese version. is it possible to have both versions on my computer so I can use each of them in its appropriate context.
    Judd

    Yes, I often use several versions of firefox.

    Use custom install for the 2nd or both versions of firefox and create multiple profiles.
    

    Program records

    When you install firefox (you can leave the first version where it is) choose custom rather than the default values Setup. You normally use a location in the path of the program window, so that the files are easy to find related and execution. Maybe just add USA and C for default folder names, so that you have separated appropriate folders. You can rename all of the Firefox shortcuts after their creation.

    Two profiles

    You will need to have separate for each version profiles so that they work properly.

    1. I would like to start by creating a copy of the existing profile folder and all its subfolders. Copy in a safe place, out of program or firefox profile paths, the Windows desktop is an obvious choice. It is not necessary, but if something is wrong it allows possibilities of recovery or regression.
    2. For simplicity, let such existing firefox profile; If it doesn't work still. You can always delete the shortcuts for her later if she is not going to be used. (Do not rename the profiles until you are confident and fully understand firefox profiles and how they are used).
    3. Create a new profile for the American version of firefox. You can use it right away if your US version of firefox work properly, otherwise re - install firefox.
      • Carefully note the name of the profile and the folder name and the path. When you create a profile, it of wise always to use an empty folder, because if you imprudently delete the profile you lose everything, including all the important but unrelated files are contained in it because it was not initially an empty folder.
      • you have no need to uninstall firefox, but if you do, then do NOT use any option to delete personal settings or a Firefox or Windows option.
      • / ! ------Care if you remove the settings it will try to remove all settings, Favorites, passwords etc of normally installed versions of Firefox. (Proper use of file recovery utilities and luck is needed if the attempt to overthrow of the action)
    4. Rename it shortened to something suitable like us Firefox and configured to use the US profile.
    5. follow a similar procedure for Chinese version.
    6. It is possible to run both versions at the same time, open which uses the -no-remote option, but I'm guessing you won't need that.

    I'll add explanatory links later today, when I'm on another machine with my favorites available.

  • In Firefox 3, I could type history search for words in the URL bar and pressing on enter would take me directly the debates, without going through Google. How can I get 4 to do this?

    I could even find in the websites in this way, say by typing France wiki and need me the Wikipedia for the France page, even though I had never been there. (Or sometimes, if I did a search with the term wiki, it would take me to a wiki dedicated to this subject, even though I had never been to this site before.)

    I really do not understand how this feature works, but can I turn it on for firefox 4?

    The change between Firefox 3.6. * and Firefox 4 is how the location bar search. In Firefox 3.6, it uses Google search "search by name". With innovation by the name search, it performs a search on Google and if there is a clear match he will take you on the site, otherwise, it shows the Google search result. With Firefox 4 it performs just a search on Google, if you type in something that is not recognized as a URL.

    To get the behavior of Firefox 3.6 on Firefox 4, you must change a hidden preference.

    1. Type of topic: config in the address bar and press on enter
    2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    3. Locate the preference keyword. URL, double-click it and change its value on the link below
