  Hello, ellzeena!

  From 34 of Firefox, you can use one of these methods to change you default search engine:
  
  Note: The following may not apply to localized versions of Firefox.

  • Click the menu button

    

    Select the Options under Windows or Preferences on Mac or Linux, and the parameters of Search Panel.

  • Click on the magnifying glass icon in the search bar, then click on change settings for search, as shown here:

  

  In the search settings panel that opens, select a different search provider menu drop-down (see the screenshot).

  For more information, see the article use the Firefox search bar.

• How to set Google as default search engine in Firefox 5? I tried several fixes, but I get a Yahoo instead of Google search.

  I want to use Google as my search engine, but no matter what I change the default search engine settings is still Yahoo.

  I would also like to have the track back feature when I opened a new tab, it shows often used pages that I can click on and open.

  First of all, thanks to dmcritchie. His solution was helpful. However, I didn't uninstall my Yahoo Toolbar because I have buttons, bookmarks, etc. that do not migrate.

  For those of you, like me, who want to continue to use your Yahoo toolbar as well as the use of the Google toolbar, here's another solution:

  Rather than uninstall the Yahoo toolbar just hide it. Go to the command bar, select view > toolbars > then uncheck Yahoo toolbar. (See first image)

  Then...

  1. Open a new tab.
  2. Go to the address bar and type auto: config and press the Enter key.
  3. A warning box appears. Close the box by clicking on the button "I'll be careful, I promise". (See the second picture)

  When the text comes up,

  1. Scroll down until you find "browser.search.defaulturl" it will be in bold. Third image, with the selection highlighted by me)
  2. Right click and select the first option which should be "modify", then
  3. Type (or copy and paste) the following:

  http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=
  

  Then,.

  1. Scroll down until you find "keyword." URL"it will be in bold.
  2. Right click and select the first option which should be "modify", then
  3. Type (or copy and paste) the following:

   http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=
  

  Finally,.

  1. Scroll down further until you find "yahoo.ytff.search.popup_src" again, it will be in bold.
  2. Right-click on the expression, and then select 'Edit'.
  3. Type (or copy / paste) in the following:

  http://www.Google.com/search?ie=UTF-8 & oe = UTF-8 & q =

  1. Close the tab

  And you're done.

  This will allow you to keep all the buttons and bookmarks you have in your Yahoo toolbar without side effects unpleasant to have Yahoo away your research and give you the darned Search 404 error pages.

  I hope this helps.

  PS while you make changes to the configuration: automatic, be sure to copy the values that you are editing in a Word Pad document for later retrieval. Be clear about what "preference name" you have accessed and what 'value' you changed. " In this way, if necessary, you can always go back and everything returns to its previous state. I titled my document "Firefox AboutConfig Changes".

  Good luck!

• Firefox home page has changed to open yahoo instead of google.

  My default home page has changed somehow. The page always shows the Firefox logo with a search bar, but that pressing the button 'Search' opens Yahoo instead of Google.
  I tried the add on "Reset" but he lost too much of my settings and add ons. I had to restore my original Firefox.

  Okay, I think I found it. I have disabled all of my extensions, deleted the file prefs.js again and then activated the extensions one by one. When I got one called Pdforge toolbar (or something like that), I've read about it and don't know why I never installed. I didn't even try to enable it, I just removed it. But I reinabled all others and the homepage is to stay with Google.

  Whoopee!

• When you click the back button in Internet Explorer, I went back to the same page, I am already on. Problem seen in Google search engine.

  Problem seen in Google search engine.

  I used Google for years without problems - I work from home as a freelance journalist.  But this last few days, if I search for something on Google from IE and click on a result, I can get the page I want upward.  But then, if I want to go back to the same Google search page to check the other results, I can't go back by clicking on the button 'back' at the top left, as I always did.  If I click it, it just keeps returning me to the page I'm already.  I find no mention anywhere using this problem or any means to remedy.  If I have the cursor hover over the arrow bak, the address of the current page appears rather than the original Google search page, so there is obviously something wrong.

  Thank you
