  • Just installed v35. Now that the search box does not work. ??

    Today I got a message that Firefox v35.0 (Windows version) is ready to install. So I let it install. Once the installation is complete and restarted Firefox, the search box is more work. It presents suggestions for my default search engine (Google), but when I click on a suggestion, nothing happens. Or if I type the search term in directly or click on the arrow (right out of the box), nothing happens.

    If I put the search term in the URL window, it works, but I prefer to use the search box separate of the address bar.

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    • In previous versions of Firefox, click on the Firefox button in the upper left of the Firefox window and click help (or click on help in the Menu bar, if you do not have a Firefox button) and click on restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

    Plu green indicates that the current site has a search plugin, you can install it if you want. Without doubt, who is not related to the problem.

    You are having problems with the search bar on the right end of the toolbar or from the search box in one of the internal pages of Firefox, for example the integrated home page or the new tab page?

    With the search in the toolbar bar, normally, as soon as you start typing, or if you click it with the text already in it, the button panel descends. What is happening? While you type there may be suggestions for your default search engine. You get? And finally to search you can press enter or click on the arrow. No results?

  • "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.

  • 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.

  • 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 function does not work in a document, all the ideas of solution?

    Nice day

    I use Adobe Acrobat Reader DC 2015 Release Version 2015.008.20082 l. Within the program I asked for updates, and he says that it is current.

    The "Search/search" function does not work even when I clearly see the word I'm looking. Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Meredith

    Hi Meredith,

    Please confirm if you are using Acrobat or Reader?

    Search function will not work if it is a pdf document scanned in image format, you must apply OCR on this file by using Acrobat to be able to search for text in the document.

    Kind regards

  • Vista Search & indexing does not work

    When I go to Control Panel/Indexing Options/Advanced/show Options all the locations of some files are to check, but the OS(c:) est grisée.) I had turned off at the same time & now cannot get it turned back on.

    How to make this work?

    Why indexing taking so long?

    Why can't stop indexing or turn it off for awhile (it interferes with other programs sometimes)?

    Why seek complex with a bunch of drop downs and it usually does not even get just a subfolder. I searched (using the F command) 3 letters in a title only and got a response from an area not indexed that contains NONE of the letters, and it took several minutes. @!

    Some MS answers say to use the troubleshooting Index feature, but it doesn't seem to be indexing window.

    Hello

    These two showed more problems of search for Windows 7, however, they also seem to be
    able to affect Vista as well.

    1. one thing that seems to have an impact on several is the bit REACH has been set on some files
    Index cannot be set and search for cannot be found. So the ATTRIB-a *. * bps, which means archive
    is REMOVED for the files in the folder/directory Parent (top) and those in all the subfolders/sup-
    directories.

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/63741-read-only-file-folder-attribute.html

    ------------

    2 another problem seems to be McAfee and some other antivirus programs are interfering with the
    Index or search functions. McAfee, must be uninstalled using the uninstall routine in
    Windows AND the removal of McAfee too of course no remains are left. (Possibly other antivirus
    programs are also what causes this error.) Of course, you want to move to another antivirus
    MSE (Microsoft Essentials), Avast or other.

  • The App Store search function does not work on iOS 9.3.3

    Search in the App store does not work for me since the upgrade to iOS 9.3.3

    Is that what someone else has this problem or can tell me how to fix it?

    Probably this will seem like a strange solution, but try to press the search key at the bottom of the App Store search 10 times screen. I read that it helped a lot of people.
