  • How can I remove iLivid Web search?

    Unfortunately, I installed iLivid and have had the problem that many others have lived with the irritating searchqu. I followed the many useful threads on using Firefox and through disabling modules, using Add/Remove programs etc, I have manged to pretty much get rid of. One annoying aspect remains. On my Firefox page, next to the usual web address field is another field of research that is pre-filled with "iLivid Web search."

    Does anyone know what specific part of the uninstall will get rid of this?
    Thank you.

    It worked for me. There is a magnifying glass with a drop-down arrow on the left side of the box using the ilivid search. Hit him and you will see a list of search engines. Go to "manage search engines" at the bottom, select 'ilivid', then 'delete '. Select the search engine you want to use and if it is not already at the top, select "move up". Mine is now at Google.

  • The Google web search results 'not fair' in Firefox

    I'm having a problem using Google search on the web (toolbar and directly from google.com) in Firefox. When I search a keyword, lets say a company name and you wait to make appear the company Web site, the results include videos, articles, news, etc. None of the main company Web site are included in search results. There is no problem with Google web search in IE or Chrome.

    Here's a specific example: "Mozilla Firefox" in Google search you use Firefox there are some 31,600,000 results with the top 10 being random sites on Firefox browsers. When I search "Mozilla Firefox" in Google using IE, there are only some 130,000,000 (4 times more), with the best results being www.mozilla.org/and other Mozilla sites 'main '.

    I ran all the patches malware/Antivirus software recommended, reinstalled Firefox, update of a few add-ons/plug-ins I have, and made sure that Google search parameters are exactly the same for all browsers. Nothing works.

    Did anyone else encounter this problem or have a guess at what may be the cause of this? I have spent a few hours trying to fix it and am willing to give up Firefox, so far that is (was) my go to the browser.

  • Engine search toolbar Firefox search guard reseting to bing, the closing of firefox

    So I just reinstalled firefox on your laptop brand new Windows 8.1, and I noticed that the search bar in the upper right corner is set on bing as a search engine. I try to change it, but he refused to change, then I deleted the search engine and set it to google.
    I noticed that whenever I am close and re-open firefox, the search engine in the search toolbar resets to bing, despite me having deleted bing as a search engine. What can I do to make sure she stays permanently on google?

    Remove integrated search engines would be to remove his file browser\searchplugins XML file in the Firefox program folder, but these changes are not guaranteed to survive an update of Firefox.

    Search engines are installed in the searchplugins folder in the installed Firefox profile folder custom.

  • How can I remove bookmarks on my toolbar when the "bluestar" is not turned on? (Ditto for the button 'delete' in the menu library).

    Dear Sir/Madam
    I had a quick glance at your solutions page and have tried to use all of the tips suggested however, when I try to remove three items on toolbar, none of them illuminate the "BlueStar" located next to their address. (I got rid of other elements). I also tried to remove the Firefox menu library items, however, the button delete them is not on either. I'm now concerned that items are spyware. I thought to reinstall the software, but it would mean losing all my favorites.

    For your information, I've just updated Firefox to 28.0.

    I would appreciate your help with this matter.

    Kind regards
    Suzanne

    Good to hear! I think you should be able to use the trackpad however. I think I remember to make it work on Mac a friends (first one I've listed below, in this web page)-use two fingers and tap the trackpad. I think you might have to watch that you don't type it too lightly, or he doesn't know what you're trying to do.

    On this second which says to use the CTRL, to my memory, the Mac is not that (it does now, maybe)... I think I had to use a different key that was downstairs left... Google Images, I see that there are four: fn, control, option, command... If the control key does not work, my next guess would be to use the option or command key. It's easy to see which experience.

    If you press and hold the function key, and then regular - click on the bookmark you want to delete, isn't that bring up the contextual menu? It's rather than just giving the bookmark two fingers tap.

    • * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

    Use the tap two fingers on the trackpad, not a click, just a light tap with two fingers.

    • * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

    If you have a mouse with a button, hold down the CTRL key, and then click the mouse button.

    If you have a magic mouse, press and hold the mouse on the right side.

    • * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

    Otherwise, go to system-> Trackpad-> Point & Click Preferences and select your preferred option for "secondary click."

  • How to return to the old Web Developer Toolbar?

    I was automatically upgraded to the new Web Developer toolbar, but it has TWO flaws. One is a big problem!
    (1) the search box to change the CSS and the "Close" button is on the right. For as long as I used it, it was on the left. So now, we must all go how we use them.
    (2) (big prob) the function of hierarchical table cells expose them, but unlike the old tool (same year), it also puts to * td * and if it breaks the layout of the site while you try just to see the 'lines' hence are cells.

    Thus, for example: a menu where just the links in shape - they go in all directions, because the ' td who show up, forcing.

    How to return to the old web developer who was simple and better tool?
