Updated Firefox and now I Bing as the start page for Firefox browser. How to make Google return

Updated Firefox 22 to 23 Firefox and now I Bing as my browser. I want Google as my browser. How to set Google as my browser on Firefox start page.

I'm back and I solved the problem myself. That's what you have to do... (1) type in the search "topic: config ' and click 'ok' when warning is displayed; (type 2) to the research "browsers.search.selectedEngine" 3) now right-click on "browers.search.selectedEngine" and choose in the menu 'new' and now, choose "string" and just write 'Google' and click on 'ok '. She and your done. Now I have my trusty Google back as well as you. I was a little afraid at the beginning because I know if I make a mistake I would have maybe reinstall Firefox but everything worked very well and is very easy to do. Just make sure that you re - check before you click on 'ok '.

    I currently have Firefox 9.0. Why the start page for firefox keep telling me that I don't have the latest version?

    You may need the old start page. Go to Firefox > Options and in the pane general, under Startup, click on restore by default. The page you have probably (http://google.com/firefox) only served to 3.6 (and tells you you are outdated), but some users seem to have gotten stuck on it after updating to Firefox 4 or upper version.

  • The text box to define a start page is greyed out and I can't change the start page.

    When I go to the Options screen, the "Mozilla Firefox Start Page" text box is gray and unchanging. If I navigate to a page, and then set that as my start page, close and restart Firefox back to the Firefox/Google homepage - my homepage setting is not saved.

    I tried to reset Firefox, restart with Add-ons disabled, even delete and recreate a new profile, but he always does.

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

  • Restore the old logo of firefox in the start page for firefox & lose crazy tail Fox logo

    Within the last few days my regular firefox logo appearing on the firefox start page has changed on my desktop (windows xp) and two laptops (windows 8 and windows 8.1). All changed logos at the same time. The normal logo (globe portfolio blue orange fox) is now an orange Fox (globe portfolio) with a tail of control crazy that encircles wildly around the world a couple of times. Is not cute & compact but instead takes a lot of space and really bothers me. Firefox has been one of the rare browsers that I have the right to make the automatic updates, but I'm going to change these settings, since I had so much trouble trying to change the rear logo. My history of update watch 32.0.3 update has been installed on 24-09-14 & put update 32.0.2 installed 30-10-14, which seems odd to me since 32.0.3 would seem to come after 32.0.2. (There is no cartoon character saying "click me" nor is there excerpts, and I don't want to block the ordinary brand logo, I just want to get rid of this crazy tail logo).

    I appreciate your help on this as this crazy tail logo is driving me crazy!  Thank you very much.
    

    The change of the logo on the default home page is temporary for various promotional campaigns that Mozilla is run. Unfortunately, it seems to be the 'new normal' now. When he started last spring, it was like once every two months for a week or two, but now it looks like a 'week', then in another week or two another promo starts.

    Follow cor - el's guidelines to lock the "excerpt" from being downloaded, then clear the current "SnippetsMap" via the Web Console.

    Or, just set your own choices for your home page.

  • How to set the start page for the new tab page?

    I have my boot settings to open my windows and tabs from last time. If I leave Firefox with one of the new tab page, the next time I start up my home page indicates. New windows displays the homepage too. I want my homepage to remain such what. I had defined it like that before and had no problem. It's always like that? Thank you.

    If you always want to start with the subject: newtab page then you can open the properties of the desktop Firefox shortcut and add a space and: target newtab at the command line to specify from this page.

    Otherwise, you start with the home page or the pages of the previous era as shown in the startup parameter.

    A new window will always open by the home page unless you have an installed extension for that to change.

  • I need the actual address of the start page of Mozilla. It is not by default in my Firefox options.

    I'm trying to convert to the start page of Mozilla (Firefox) for my homepage. I can't follow the instructions because my default homepage in the options is Yahoo. (I don't want that.) Can you give me the address of the start page? I know how to make my home page after that I sailed here.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode without failure.

    Before the last update of my Mozilla Firefox, the start page for Firefox contained one area internet address to the top of the screen, where I could enter a Web address and go success. She also showed the Google search box in the middle of the screen.

    Now, after the update of Firefox, the start page shows that the Google search box. There is no internet address box or an impressive "box", which, according to my reading of the new features, is supposed to have replaced the internet address box.

  • Can I put in start page for Firefox with a different search engine, not Google?

    I remove all things 'Google' from my computer. I want the Start Page for Firefox, because I can get to options, modules, etc. and I don't want to lose this.

    Easier is to select the preferred search engine in the search bar on the Navigation toolbar to see the name of this search engine in the pref browser.search.selectedEngine and copy its value to the browser.search.defaultenginename pref.

    Firefox should use this search engine on the subject: home page after a closing and restarting Firefox.

    If this isn't the case, then you can have an extension which is predominant, especially if the pref change.
