Search bar does not work in Firefox 5.1, all solutions?

Search bar works not properly. You can see the name that you are looking for on the page and if you type in the three first letters of the name of the search bar will not find the name for you, the box turns red.

On the search bar, don't forget "Case-sensitive Option" is not checked.

  • The firefox search bar does not work and when trying to manage search firefox engine crashes and I have to force to leave.

    My search bar does not work. I can enter text and the work of AutoFill, but when I hit enter or click the magnifying glass, nothing happens. (The address bar works). I can't change the search engine of google for other engines by default, but they are looking for either. When I open "Manage search engines" menu opens and I can make changes, but then he won't and I leave firefox to get the strength to normal navigation. It drives me crazy, please help! I tried to restart the search engine, my computer, changed such parameters suggested by other pages, but nothing helped. (Safari search bar works, but I don't use Safari, so I would really like to understand how to solve this problem).

    This has happened

    Each time Firefox opened

    Is two weeks.

    I had this same problem. Couldn't Google to search in weeks bar. Drove me crazy.

    Does what you has proposed and made a new profile, but simply copied to a file or folder at a time in the new profile in the Finder and started the profile to test to see if it worked or not for Google.

    It came down to formhistory.sqlite. The second I put that in Trial, the Google bar stopped working. Found out it just saves your form history and past Google searches, so I'm ok with starting over on that. I'll just have to enter my address one more time on the next form I fill out.
    

    I tried just compensation history form and search in Firefox, but that does not solve, so I went ahead and made another new profile and replaced the formhistory.sqlite from this profile file my trial period. It worked, then I did the same thing with 'default '.

    Problem. Solved.

  • Search bar does not work.

    I am running FF25.0.1 on Windows 7, but I had this problem for several versions, do not remember when he started. The search bar does not work with any engine, I can type and the cursor flashes but it does not research when I hit enter or use the search button.

    I tried:
    -clean the uninstall/reinstall firefox
    -create a profile
    -in the course of running as an administrator
    -test in safe mode
    -suppression of research and searchmetadata.json, formhistory.sqlite, etc..
    -removal of the plugins to search then by reinstalling ff to generate news
    -use the searchreset addon

    After some of them, the search bar will work only once to help enter or the button before returning to the uselessness.

    I'm more or less certain that I don't have a malicious software. I do not use the address bar to search because it is a little more complicated to use terms, including the slashes or openings of the diaphragm, and put except that I do not have the functions which do not hang out.

    Start the computer in Mode safe mode with network support Windows (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test to see if that helps.

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

    Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

    Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

    • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

    Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

  • I can't open links in a new tab and my search bar does not work

    I can't open some links in a new tab.

    When I right click on the menu displays the "open in a new tab" function but when I click on it nothing happens.

    Some links open in a new tab when I click on it directly, and I can open images in Google image in a new tab, but most of the time that it does not.

    I already disabled modules and is currently in safe mode, but it's always the same.

    In addition, nothing happens when I enter a search in the bar of Firefox search and hits ENTER. I can't even change the search engine to this topic.

    Make a check of malware with several malware scanning of programs on the Windows computer.
    Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
    All of these programs have free versions.

    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

    Alternatively, you can write a check for an infection rootkit TDSSKiller.

  • The timeline of Google search function does not work in Firefox but not in IE

    I use Google for searches. After receiving the search results there are additional options along the left sidebar. "Timeline" function takes the results of the search and sort them in chronological order and displays the results on a timeline. This feature is used to work well in Firefox. Now after receipt of search results when I press the option "Timeline" Google tells me that my search "did not match any documents."

    I assumed the problem was with Google but when I finally tested in Internet Explorer, I discovered that the function of the chronology has worked well. The exact URL in Internet Explorer properly displays the results of the timeline sorted but when stuck in Firefox it produces no result.

    Please explain what could be the cause or I might have to switch browsers that I wouldn't do. Thank you.

    Here is year example of a Google Timeline search request that produces no. matching documents: "http://www.google.com/search?source=ig & hl = in & rlz = 1G1GGLQ_ENUS287 & = & q = mozilla + firefox + reviews & btnG = Google + Search & aq = f & oq = #q = mozilla + firefox + reviews & hl = in & tbo = 1 & rlz = 1G1GGLQ_ENUS287 & output = search & source = lnt & tbs = tl:1 & a = X & ei = W20_Tf_2OoragAeJ0LG8Aw & ved = 0CA8QpwUoBA & fp = d99ec83a3d63f24"

  • "Search" box does not work in Firefox (Int Explorer OK)

    When I try to search something using the box in the upper right corner of the Firefox browser, it always leads to the top of the "Google" search page instead of the search results. All attempts to search for Google product page always the same coming empty Google page. I have no problem with Internet Explorer. Unable to find anything in 'Settings' or 'Options' for Firefox that would control this. I have Firefox 15.0.1 running on Windows 7 on the new Hewlett Packard Pavilion computer purchased in April. Since 'restore', updates have been made to Windows 7 (23 of them) as well as Java plug-ins restoration was done to remedy to corrupted 'Windows user profile.
