Why can't I just press ENTER to go to the page when I have the full URL text typed in the address bar?

I do not know; Maybe I'm just crazy, but I swear, until I downloaded FF4, I used to be able to (1) type in a full URL, or (2) a URL or a partial keyword and choose what I wanted in a drop-down of recent URL, and then press ENTER to be redirected to the page I was looking for - all in the address bar without having to use my mouse click on the small arrow buckled at the right end of the address bar (next to the star of "favorite").

This will be caused by an add-on that does work properly with Firefox 4. the procedure described in the following link can be used to identify a cause your problem - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

The AVG Safe Search add-on caused this problem for some people.

    This problem is Firefox on your Mac?

    Perhaps users have discovered that this problem is caused by led modules, for example a plugin Conduit and/or an extension "Community Toolbar".

    You can check and disable the extensions on page modules. Either:

    • Command + shift + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    What helps with the button "+"? If so, you can name the specific extension that caused the problem?

    You can also see the Plugins page modules. You can never use 'activate' to disable plugins that you do not usually use.

  • the address bar of Firefox 40 will not act on the entered text.

    I can only access different websites using bookmarks. Although the address bar shows the current site accurately, you can enter the new text in the address bar and pressing Enter has no effect. Nothing happens. How can I fix?

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

  • Why can I not just use DreamWeaver?

    I bought a subscription to DreamWeaver, almost a year ago, but whenever I try to open the program, it tells me that my trial period has expired. When I followed the instructions "Of this software license", he told me to open a session and wonder a serial number. When I type the serial number: exact serial number that is listed under my username and password - it tells me the serial number is not valid. Why can I not just use the software? I had to pay a monthly fee for 11 months now, and I have to go through this charade whenever I comand to use the software. Used computers for 30 years and never experienced something like that. Any advice?

    Hi JohnLynnBob,

    You must remove all the entries of Adobe since the 'hosts' file in your computer.

    The location of the hosts file is

    For windows:-C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts (open it with Notepad)

    For Mac:-Finder window Open---> click on top go---> go to folder---> Type '/ etc'---> press enter - hosts (open it with text edit)

    If you see all the entries in the hosts Adobe file delete them, save the file and then launch the product---> license this software---> identify you---> the subscription will be activated.

    Thank you

  • I can't launch any Web site by typing in the address bar. It's going to happen when I press on enter. Get the latest update of Firefox on Ubuntu Maverick.

    I can't launch any website in the address bar of Firefox11. I can't type in the address of website below but if I press on enter nothing happen.

    In Firefox 4 and later Safe mode disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.

    Try turning off hardware acceleration.

    • Edit > Preferences > advanced > General > Browsing: "use hardware acceleration when available.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "basic troubleshooting: a new profile:

    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.

    If this new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

  • Why can't I just move on with windows7 starter to windows 8, my computer is only 9 months since purchest?

    Why can't I just move on with windows7 starter to windows 8, my computer is only 9 months since purchest?

    So it will not uninstall then install my programs, or what, then another question is the offer for $14.99, that's what I was watching and I filled a free upgrade and probably has not been fully tested for this upgrade, he said I would be able to get the upgrade, but there is no decrease in my emails guess still in work. While {s it improves just $ 40 million that I should wait for a version pro or ultimate?

    And what will happen to my saved files?

    and I'll be able to restore to the factory with warranty setting and I can use my series to my computer for the upgrade?

    NOW please if you don't know it please tell me I would like to know some facts and since there is so much development, in my view, the pro version is yet to come, so...

    Windows 7 Starter is not eligible for the offer of $14.99.  Only Windows 7 Home Basic, Home Premium, Professional and Ultimate. If you must upgrade to Windows 8, then you have to wait on the upgrade $ 39.99 for Windows 8 Pro that will become available October 26, 2012.

    The upgrade will allow you to keep your applications, personal files and settings.

    Yes, it should be able to restore the factory State, but always backup before making changes on your computer like installing an operating system:

  • Since the installation of Firefox 8, when I type anything in the address bar and then press "enter" or click on the arrow for "go to the address in the address bar", nothing happens!

    Since the installation of Firefox 8, when I type anything in the address bar and then press "enter" or click on the arrow for "go to the address in the address bar", nothing happens! Similarly if a place is indicated by the location bar AutoComplete feature. I hit "enter" or click the "go to" and nothing happens. " Keyboard shortcuts to "complete the .com, .net, etc. addresses" doesn't work or the other. The address bar has worked well for entering web addresses before Firefox 8. Help, please.

    Try Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there.

    A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • You can open the Firefox 4, 5, 6, 7 SafeMode pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

    Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.

    If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.

    Looks like you have set browser.newtab.url to Subject: House which opens the default home page in each new tab. The simplest thing to do is to reset this preference so that instead of the new tab page:

    1. Type of topic: config in the address bar and press ENTER.
    2. To ignore the warning, press the big button "I'll be careful, I promise!
    3. In the search box, paste browser.newtab.url
    4. In the search results, click browser.newtab.url , and then choose reset.

    Otherwise,.

    1. Custom installation tab.

    2. Open the modules (Ctrl + Shift + A Manager; Mac: Command + shift + A), then the Extensions category.
    3. Next to the new custom label, click on the Options button.
    4. The value of any page you want to open in each new tab (topic: newtab is the value default; about: home is the default home page) and make sure that "Focus in the URL bar" is not checked.
  • Can not enter the url in the address bar

    I can open a new tab, and the cursor is placed at the beginning of the address window. The cursor does not blink. I can't enter all the characters from the keyboard. I can open any favorite in the new tab, but the address bar is frozen.
    The same problem occurred just when I tried to fill my email address on a form in Kijiji.ca. The cursor is placed in the field, but entry was frozen.
    I am running FF 13 in windows 7 64 bit.

    Sorry, I don't add to that earlier, Cor - el. I end up following your good advice because the issue seems to have resolved itself. It's magic! The only change I did was uninstall Flash 11.3 and go back to 10. I had the same problems as many others with the last Flash. As by chance, I have not had my problem since.
