Since the update, when I tap ' search ' in the address window she seeks with AOL. I DIDN'T ASK FOR THIS. HATE HATE HATE it. Please tell me how to do stop! That's enough for me to give up firefox.
previously (and in other browsers such as Chrome) when you use the address window to search instead of the specific search window, no harm comes to you, it goes ahead and search with google (that I put in place) and everything is copacetic. now, suddenly the maddening beast hurt is AOL made its unwelcome reappearance and when I search in the address window (which I do by habit) I get a result of significantly lower and deeply irritating AOL search. Firefox is my browser of choice usually but I tried every setting I could think to destroy this parasitic invasion nothing helps, and if I can't permanently I cease to use firefox to avoid huge vitriol, he draws in the core of my being.
Back to Google as your favorite search engine, follow these steps.
- In the address bar, type Subject: config and press ENTER.
- In the filter at the top, type: keyword. URL
- Double click top and delete everything in it and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q=
The URL to add in "keyword. URL"becomes a link in this message, right-click, and choose"copy link location"to copy to the Windows Clipboard. Then press CTRL + V to paste. You have to type all of this saves.
To reset your home page, follow these steps.
- Go to the site you want to set as your home page.
- Click on the orange button Firefox and go to Options | Options | General
- Make sure that it says in the first drop 'show my home page'.
- Click on the button called "use current Pages' to set the home page to the one you have on the screen.
After completing the steps above, install this add-on to prevent another search engine to change your preferences: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/browserprotect/

I can access websites through bookmarks, most visited, history or if I click on links in Google, etc. If I click on a link directly, it will open. If I copy & paste or type a link into the address window, click Enter or on the arrow "go to" in the address window - no response. I tried several Web sites. This seems to have happened since the 29th of Firefox upgrade. This only happens with Firefox.
You can try to start Firefox in Mode safe to see if Firefox works correctly without error? You can start Firefox in Mode safe below:
- Windows/Mac: choose Help > restart with disabled modules
- Linux: run firefox-safe-mode in the Terminal/Konsole
If Firefox opens fine with no problems, it is probably one of your extensions that is causing the problem. You can reactivate your modules one by one until you find the one that is causing the problem to be re-activated.
This might or might not be relevant to your question, but it seems that user.js is currently active in Firefox. The user.js file is present than if you or another software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be here.
You can delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-# .js files and rename (or delete) the file prefs.js to reset all the prefs by default, including the prefs set via user.js and pref which is no longer supported in the current version of Firefox. You can get the profile below:
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory > see folder
or
- Go to Subject: support , and then click view the folder next to the profile directory.

When I get off the fall from the address window, rather than display the URL of the Web site I want to open in a second tab says "switch to the tab '. But I don't want to move to the tab - I want to open a second tab on the same URL. If I want to open it a second time, I have to manually enter the address. Is it possible to turn off this option so that I can open the second tab by using the same address in the drop-down menu? I was always able to do this with the previous versions of Firefox.

I have just updated Firefox, but seems to have lost the menu on top left of the page (very useful) who had a number of elements, including the 'bookmarks', 'tools' etc.. On the far left of this 4/5 menu item is the logo of Mozilla.
Can you please tell me how to get it back?
Hi Peter, to activate different bars on and outside, including the Menu bar, you can use one of the following methods to view the list of the toolbar, and then select the desired bar (s) there:
- Right click on a place empty on the tab bar (or the button '+')
- Press the Alt key to activate the classic menu bar > view > toolbars
- in customize mode > show/hide toolbars (see: Customize Firefox commands, buttons, and toolbars)
To activate the menu bar, toolbar bookmarks or other bars, click it in the list.
Is - that you are looking for?
If something isn't quite right, it is possible that an extension has been tweaking the menu/toolbar area...

Please tell me how do to permanently change the date of a file "update"
Please tell me how do to permanently change the date of a file "update". The file is a JPG image copied from a digital camera. After that I rotate image his 'Date Modified' goes from January 20, 2011 to September 1, 2011. As a result of the date change, the image no longer appears in the correct position when the directory is sorted. I have a program that creates a file HTML images. The software sorts images according to their creation date. The bad images appear at the end of the table.
Date manipulation attributes of a file can be done directly through the graphical interface of Windows. There are, however, various third party utilities that have this capability.
This article has a good discussion on the topic and includes links to some public services. The article is quite old, however, and I don't check to see if the links are still valid.
