The cursor to select the search engine is missing and replaced by a white 'More' in a green dot.

Ok. I saw messages that explain what the 'green point '. That's all fine and dandy. The exception - I WON'T!

When this pretty green dot is there, I can't right-click on the selected text and choose where I want to get him. The default search now only Google.

So my question is; How can I get rid of this shit? I have NO use for it. I don't want to. I don't need. I want GONE! I want the old cursor backward! (To add insult to injury, the cursor no longer appears even when the 'point' is not there.)

I'm using Firefox under win7 SP1 43.0.1

Thanks in advance for your help,

Yosen

The green dot with several white means that the site offers a search engine that you can add to Firefox.

  • QUESTION OF THE WEEK... Expertise 101__File Type problem! (Xp SP3) _ question: when double clicking on a folder in the search engine database appears and no files appear.

    -problem happens after messing around with 'file types' in 'options folders' BUT the records may not configured properly to correct the open method by setting the 'file type' back to 'open' in the file types.

    QUESTION OF THE WEEK... Expertise 101

    History...

    I saw a tutorial online on how to change the icons of any file (text, folder, programs)
    In addition to the normal way to do it:

    The normal route was right - click folder, text, program or folder etc-> choose Properties > then choose Change icon

    The new way that I learned how to do that was - go to folder options in the control panel > choose the 'file types' tab > find folder icon, click on it > choose Advanced Options > then choose Change icon.

    The reason for me wanting to do other then the normal way is because I would like to point out that all RECORDS USE DIFFERENT TYPE of ICON RATHER THEN DEFAULT UGLY OF THAT folder BROWN ICON that windows XP USES

    the problem starts here... to (go into folder options in Control Panel > choose the 'file types' tab > find folder icon, click on it > choose Advanced Options > then choose Change icon.)

    Note that these are two icon files: the 'Change icon' button is available and highlighted on a launched the Advanced button, but not on the other...

    After messing around with New both of these icons of specific folder "Advanced settings" after closing and the application of the setting.

    What is happening now, it is that each folder I usually double-click thanks to my system all what happens is that the search method appears average while displaying no other files in the folder it self.

    I'm expieranced and you wrote the parameters passed to each "type of file"setting"for this purpose he adjusting back to the past and yet nothing happens...

    THE QUESTION IS >
    How to fix something like that

    &

    How do you get each folder in your system to view another icon rather than UGLY, LOW DOWN DIRTY DUNG COLORFUL FOLDER ICON DEFAULT.

  • How can I remove the selection of search engines to the search bar as you type?

    Since the last update when I type in the search field, all the possible search engines are visible, and it's very confusing use now. It is also a double feature as I see that the selection of search engine is still available next to the search icon.

    Is there a way to disable the display of all the search engines available in the results 'search as you type "?

    Running Ubuntu.

    Please, do not react with an antibot question or answer, the only goal, is that I see if it's possible or not until you switch to another browser. Seems more recent updates to firefox are based mainly on the subjective views of individuals rather than on the wishes of the user. Such a shame for that one good browser.

    Best regards and thanks in advance.

    You can find research tab to change search engines in Options/preferences between the tabs and content in the current version.

    If you want to restore the window previously used independently to manage search engines, you can enable or disable this pref to false with a middle-click on the topic: config page.

    • topic: config page: browser.search.showOneOffButtons = false

    You will need to close and restart Firefox to make it work properly.

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • The search engine used to open the selections in a new tab. Is not doing that. How can I get that back?

He is not doing that. There is no that opens the link forcing me to constantly go back to the place just to be able to close the new tab if it's not what I'm looking for.

  • All my research are back in the search engine Yahoo finder without danger.

    All my research are back in the search engine Yahoo finder without danger.  I ran the fixes suggested in other threads with the same problem, but I still get Yahoo search results.  Google is my selected search engine.

    I noticed that the problem happens when I type my research in space on the search page itself.  This search page looks a bit like a page from Google, but there no links etc than Google does.  Instead, he has "SearchTech" downstairs (with Contact, privacy and terms). If I type my research topic in the menu bar the results come back in Google.

    I confirmed that my favorite search engine is Google. Previously I ran LaunchAgents and LaunchDaemons and removed three files to those who had been loaded on my computer today.  I checked the extensions are that there is not.

  • Can I get the Firefox search bar for not automatically, go to the site of the search engine I spend?

    The Firefox search bar seems to have changed since the last update. I understand that things are changing constantly and get used to them, but I wonder if it is possible to change the rear bar to the way it was, or at least understand why it changed.

    Basically, I used to be able to switch from search engines by choosing from the drop-down list, and would not put me right at the site of this search engine. He didn't actually bring me to the site once I hit the search button (or enter). It's quite annoying to have to remember to open a new tab before changing search engines in order to avoid sailing away from the tab that you are currently on, and it's also annoying that when you open a new tab and change the search engines, you are immediately taken to the site of this search engine. It feels like an extra step (ranging from 'the empty tab search engine page to search result' instead of 'empty tab to search result').

    I know it sounds like a minor complaint, no doubt, but I'm really really curious to know why it was changed. More important, I want to know if there is a way to customize the way it was.

    Thanks for any help!

    Many users have been raising this issue. I mentioned the same question in this post here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1086138

    In summary, it seems that the Firefox team is not intend to bring back the ability to return to the old bar search, which was possible (but in a very biased way) in older versions of 42. For now, you can either:

    • Download module additional classic restaurateur theme to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/?src=ss and then select the old search option
    • Go back to Firefox 42 and set the browser.search.showOneOffButtons property in Subject: config. However, with older versions poses a risk to the security that you won't have bug fixes provided with version 43

  • Change the search engine to the url of the specific Web site

    I have the problem by changing the url of search engine for the url address bar and the search engine plugin. My version of Firefox is 35.

    Specifically, I want to use Google.co.uk for each search, but it goes to a country different from Google.

    I tried to change the subject: config-> keyword. URL: value: "https://www.google.co.uk/#q=", but it does not.

    I have tryied changing the search engine plugin, which does not work either.

    You need to install a search engine for your favorite country, then select this search engine in "Options/Preferences > Search" as the default search engine.

  • Instructions to remove the search engine do not work, the "delete" button remains grayed out check marks independently. Is there another way that actually works?

    The Firefox Support instructions below do not work in version 36. The button 'delete' is never gray State asset once the unwanted/s search engine are checked for removal. I tried one at a time and in groups, it does everything just as they suggest below.

    Delete a search engine

    You can remove search engines, that you don't need by performing the following steps on the search bar in the toolbar or on the page tab.

       Click the search engine icon and select Manage Search Engines... to open the search engines manager.
       To remove a search engine, select it from the list, and click Remove.
    

    If you accidentally delete a default search engine, click on restore default values to recover the default search engines.

       If you accidentally delete a search engine that you installed, you must re-install it.
    

    I found the solution, the surprisingly simple. Thanks to everyone for trying, but against all the recommendations after a new analysis of malware, virus and upgrade to the latest version released on March 5, 2015... Here is the fix:

    Left click on the dropdown search button, then left click on the "change search settings." Ignore completely the checkboxes as suggested by Mozilla. The text of the search engine you want to delete to highlight in blue in the Middle, click on the grey Out button below should become active. The only function of the boxes by the search engine will make them visible or not when using the search box in Firefox. The solutions proposed by others seems logical, but I learned more than 4 decades as a technician in computer science, opt for the simple solution first. Thank you all for your suggestions, this fix works for versions 36 and 36.0.01on Windows 7. I guess it should work for other OS also.

  • Toolbar search box no longer displays the search engines with 34.0.5 update

    The 34.0.5 update just to make my life more difficult. Now I have to click on the drop down, select change settings of research, and then in another menu drop-down select which search engine, I want to use. It's so annoying and frustrating! Why programmers would make it harder for everyone? I mean, it's just makes no sense! Sometimes I wish I just that I could disable these ugly updates which do nothing but things break that went well. Is it possible to get the right search field to work effectively again? I just need a simple magnifying glass dropdown as it was before!

    You can restore the previous regime of the search like this bar.

    Open Subject: config (typed in the address bar)
    Do a right click and toggle this false preference

    browser.search.showOneOffButtons

    Then restart Firefox.

    (1) Add on versatile such as remove it permanently, allowing you to select areas of pages to hide
