Update lost on the entry of Google on its home page field
This question has been asked before but is blocked so I'll have to raise a new query. The original request was:
"When firefox opens to the home page of Google, it does not set focus to the text box. I click or select the text box before my strike shows up. »
The user who raised that question was on the 4.7 version, I think; I use v13.0.1 so why the problem still exists?
I opened Google and the BBC homepage when I run Firefox.
If I open Google in a new tab the focus is set on the text box correctly.
It's very annoying. Anyone have any ideas on how to get around this?
topic: Home displays the default homepage, you could then choose to set it as one of your landing pages. The default home page opens with the cursor on the search bar, which does not always happen with the other pages.

Using Firefox on Windows 10 with Google as my home page.
Using Firefox on Windows 10 with Google as my home page. Since works with Windows 10 bezel image and question box, but there do not show. Is it because of Google, Firefox, Windows 10 or a joint problem? Have looked for a solution and tried many suggestions but nothing works?
Thank you, Rob
My apologies to you Fred.
The fault was all my decisions. The desktop of Windows 10 had been configured in white using my Visual problems.
It is turn caused the faulty display of Google in Firefox.
A test in the normal Windows theme shows the Google logo and question box frame correctly. This is perhaps why MS do not offer a standard white desktop computer in W10.
Sorry and best regards

I'm on firefox 41. When I select a new tab, I get displayed story. This has changed today. I don't know what I changed to create this problem. He has always displayed Google as my homepage with no history and no new proposed apps. How can I get that back to this point. Firefox deleting then reinstalling would resolve the issue.
Hi, 41 of Firefox, you must use an add-on like tab override (browser.newtab.url replacement), to make changes to the page tab.
Once installed, open the Add-ons (Ctrl + Shift + A) Manager > Extensions, and then look for the new tab override and click Options to set your preference.
Note, if you want only the new tab to be the same as your home page, you can use the Add on new tab homepage instead.
You will then need to restart Firefox for all changes to take effect.
If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

I have the latest version of Firefox? And if so, why my home page says that I have to upgrade?
You see this message on the www.google.com/firefox site?
The current versions of Firefox 4 + is no longer use this website from Google as home page, but use the build-in on: home page as the home page.
Google assumes that you are using an older version of Firefox if you still visit this site, and warns you that you are using an older version of Firefox and invites you to update.
You can ignore this message if you are running the latest version of Firefox, as shown in the window "help > About" (Firefox is updated).
You can use a different page than the homepage as subject: House or www.google.com or www.google.com/ig (iGoogle). -
Why open a new page in the tab as well as my home page?
When I go online, I expect to have only my open home page, instead, I have two tabs, my home page tab and the tab and the new tab is the page that actually opens. This just started yesterday, why?
Have you checked the home page setting to ensure that it is always correct?
- Tools > Options > general > startup: Homepage
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/how+to+set+the+home+page
Firefox supports several home pages separated by ' |' symbol (pipe).
You can check the target line in the shortcut to the Firefox desktop (right click: properties) to make sure that nothing is added after the path to the Firefox program.
You can check for problems with preferences.

When I disable the toolbar, and then reactivate it then all bookmarks are still there but whenever I restart firefox and then the too bar (even if it is enabled) shows as empty until I have kill and bring back again. In addition, even if my home page shows that fix in the options, it does not load when I start Firefox.
Could you try disabling the add-on All - in - One Sidebar? Closing Firefox, then reopen. I heard at least a person that disabling this add-on fixed toolbar bookmarks disappearing for them. I don't know if it will also get rid of the homepage won't load does not, but it might.
To turn off the all-in - One Sidebar:
Firefox button > Modules > Extensions or Tools > Modules > ExtensionsThen click on All-in-One Sidebar, then click the disable button. The words "restart now" must appear above the disable button. Click "restart now" and let us know the results.

Update lost because the system restore - can't find it!
Gnnnnn! Cannot find the Defender Update KB915597 def 1.111.1823.0 to reinstall. Installed with Vista Update KB2607712 on September 12, 2011 and cannot start. You had to do in safe mode system restore. Concerned not sure without defender update and that Vista needs updating too. Have you tried a lot of research to find the update of Defender to download, please, where is he? Do I really need them? Do not understand the DigiNotar info on the site of Ms. I guess it was the Vista that caused the problem, but I don't know, try them separately, but cannot find the update of Defender. Thanks to you all
A system restore does not remove Windows Defender definitions. I hope that you do not use WIndows Defender to safety as it monitors only a limited category of threats. You should run an antivirus so or you must replace it with Microsoft Security Essentials.
Latest definitions can be downloaded here:
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/portal/definitions/HowToWD.aspx
KB2607712 has been replaced by KB2616676.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2616676
You are unlikely to be affected by the problem of DigiNotar unless you are based in Iran or in the Netherlands.
