Why has Firefox usability gone downhill so quickly?

1 Firefox chose to follow Google. Not always a good idea.
They have a minimum sense of conviviality, at best.
In this case, the new behavior is to reset the search section
in each tab THAT IS TERRIBLE - at least for me.
(I'm working on a wiki. I have always used Firefox for this, because
I have dozens of tabs open. I switch from one tab to another.
repeat my search, to make a series of coordinated changes.
NOW, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE. So, I might as well use Chrome.
The advantage of that Firefox used to have disappeared.

2 updates are changes to the interface without asking me,
and ignoring my preferences. Recently, the menu bar
went. I have no idea why, or even when. (It's in)
These days.) Lack of a menu bar, Firefox becomes
useless for me and forces me to switch to Chrome.

3. when I went on the pages of support, there is nothing there
on the restoration of the menu bar. All he says is, "depends of your.
OPERATING SYSTEM". It is USED to be a page that says how to retrieve...

Hi aeric, there are at least two extensions that can return to the search bar for 'per-window' instead of 'by-tab. " I did not see their previously mentioned and you might have missed their in your search on the site of modules.

If you form a preference between them, please post back, I've not seen a lot of comments lately.

  • Why is Firefox always update my browser when it is configured to never updated?

    I've apologized for my ignorance and passed to the most recent stable version 16.01 and faithful to the word of Firefox Support, did not have my browser updated since... last few days when I first noticed the browser has been configured to be updated. I was overwhelmed by this discovery, but let it go, leaving some one-time glitch. But when I logged in again, the configuration ever update that I put my Firefox version 16.01 was still once configured to have set browser to date.

    I'm logged on and outside many times since and every time despite having set to never to be updated was in a position to update.

    So my question is, despite the use of the stable version of 16.01, how can I stop Firefox update my browser and even more annoying, how I've let him walk back after that I have disable the browser up-to-date?

    I love Firefox too never give it up, don't like Chrome, certainly not, IE what version
    a Firefox user since 2005.

    Any help, assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.

  • I have to be able to open many profiles at the same time. Chrome for this. Why not Firefox?

    I knew that there are years you may have multiple profiles in Firefox, and given that Chrome is really stuffy handling games like Farmville 2 lately (don't know why, but Firefox is the browser recommended Zynga anyway), I decided to set up the profiles of boards and profile shortcuts. But there is a BIG problem. With Chrome, when I put in place of shortcuts to profiles that Chrome allows you to do in a single click, by the way, if I have a profile already open, I can open windows in all separate profiles using their shortcuts. In Firefox, I can't. If I have an open profile, the other shortcuts simply open windows in the same already open profile. This is not acceptable. It's not as if profiles are in the same directory. They are in separate directories and that there should be no problem with the opening of two or more profiles at the same time.

    You can use the - No.-remote command line switch to open another instance of Firefox with its own profile and run multiple instances of Firefox at the same time.

  • Why Mozilla Firefox uses Google as their search on the web if Google stores everything we look for?

    Why Mozilla Firefox use Google as their search engine if Google stores everything you are looking for and tracking what you do online? I have nothing against Firefox, I wonder why.

    This partnership is as old as Firefox itself, but each user can use any search engine they cars not to use - no reason, you should use Google simply because it is the default in Firefox.

    The search engines in the search bar can be removed.

    The search engine used in the Awesome Bar can be changed through subject: config.

    The search engine on the subject: home page can be changed, although not as easily as with the Awesome Bar.

    As to 'why', who knows? When Google offered to help Mozilla with financial support through their search engine is the search engine by default for Firefox, Mozilla had to say no to something that any other search engine is also at this time?

  • Why has my laptop started to randomly stop before turning off

    Original title: computer power questions

    Why has my laptop started to randomly stop before turning off? I had no problem with this computer at all for more than a year. I tried to run all the updates available, but of course, it turned off before she finished. Sometimes it will run fine then others that it is a nightmare. can anyone help please? I would be very happy to help!

    Hello

    Could be heat related - try using a small fan to blow into the air intakes to see if that helps.
    It is just like it loses power or stop it in the normal way?

    Remove ALL power and reinstall all the memory cards and cables (both ends where possible).
    in fact, remove and replace - don't do not just tight. Remove the dust bunnies and clean the
    air vents. Check that fans are working (before and after opening the case). When your laptop on all the
    You can do is to reinstall the memory and clean the vents (still may try to add a small fan as a
    test).

    This sounds like material so if the above does not help you then probably need the help of a
    real computer store (not of leeks and glances at a Best Buy or other department stores) or the system
    Support from the manufacturer.
