Why is the update after a CTRL + T (new tab) on the search (instead of address bar) bar in newer versions?

I got all the 'browser.newtab*' in: config by default in my firefox (38.0.5) - (except "browser.newtabpage.enhanced" + "browser.newtabpage.introShown").

When you open a new tab using CTRL + T (on older versions of firefox) has been emphasis to the address bar - which made a lot more sense to me that you can immediately begin typing the URL. Since the last update (version 20 (Heisenbug) Fedora) emphasis is placed on the search bar, so when you type something I find myself looking from ' subject: newtab "page which is really annoying (another CTRL + L needs to first set the focus on where I expect it to be).

This change happened on purpose? If so - is there a way to go back tho old behavior?

Or is there sth wrong with my version of Firefox only and the default behavior is still ok?

thx for the tips,
Andare

See my response to this similar question.

In short, if you have the Tile tabs extension, either upgrade to the latest version (13.1) which is supposed to fix this or turn it off.

Let us know if that solve you your problem or not.

  • How can I change the search to an address bar bar?

    Not sure yet of the terminlogy here, but it's my problem better that I can describe it: I want the ability to directly access a site whose URL I type in the navigation bar. but, as it is right now, what I type must first go through a search. I am reluctant to uninstall my current Web bar and try starting with something else, like this search only restriction made it almost impossible for me to open everything: config (instead of simply look up references to it), until I found a link that did the trick - including the icon is now on the navigation very bar that I want to change.

    Been all along ready answers offered at Mozilla and elsewhere and found nothing reassuring, although Awesome Bar On looks like it's maybe the thing - at least I thought I saw an icon of green arrow instead of a magnifying glass at the end of the bar icon. But bar features have not been detailed in a way that allowed to take an informed decision on installation - just got a sales pitch of "Here's what you can do", highlighting a number of things gimmicy I don't even want.

    Can anyone suggest a solution for me, please?

    Yes, use the address bar.

    If you have not changed anything note you can drag the address bar and the search bar, they will change size if that helps.

    Firefox is of course very editable, and you can hide these or replace them, but you don't seem to be able to access.

    You can go to these "subject:" pages with the help of the location, bar, reception for the first time you try on: config it will probably give you a warning, because it is not always the best way to change things.

  • Why is the search field not sticky more when I change the tabs?

    I'm really angry.
    One of the main reasons why I don't use IE is the always visible search box. Now, it disappears when I switch tabs! I opened several tabs and start searching in a tab after the other. Now, I have to press CTRL + f and retype the search.
    And why is the highlight and match cases button on the side right leagues from the field? I have to move the mouse away now. It is supposed to be close together so that I can move quickly. Do you have an idea of usability? You need some new ideas must spoil the browser now?
    Who decided that?

  • Why is the search for words in my search rather bar if G for google image search?

    In the upper right corner where I type for the elements, the word search is there instead of the symbol "G" for google. He used to have a blue "G" for google. Why is this and how can I change it?

    34 Firefox got a new scheme of the search bar. Does not display the icon search engine.

    You can return to the former regime of the search bar fairly easily, if that's what you prefer.

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

    browser.search.showOneOffButtons

    Then restart Firefox.

  • Update of Adobe Reader DC - New Version already installed

    I am currently machine

    Windows 7 Enterprise x 64 with the image of the company

    G2 EliteOne 800 HP AIO

    The user has a corporate webapp that is supposed to view reports in PDF with Adobe Reader form through a HTML framework. The version of Reader included in the image is Adobe Reader X. After testing on the users computer and my own, I found that I could launch the report on my machine (with Adobe Reader DC) but not on the cost to build with Reader X.

    Of course, my first thought was to simply update X DC. I have downloaded and run the installer from the Adobe website, and received a message that says "the installation process failed. A more recent version is already installed. "

    East was quite confused as I was updating certainly from X (an older version) to DC (a newer version). What I found was that the original installation of Reader X disappeared completely and I couldn't reinstall all versions! No ads for Adobe Reader X lies in programs and features.

    The only remaining information that I could find were some reg entries and an empty folder in /Program Files called 'Adobe Reader DC", which was devoid of all files.

    It almost seems that starts the process of update installer replaces the old program, installation failure somewhere but do not make back the installation and reinstall the previous version.

    I also tried to run the cleanup tool from Adobe to remove all persistent files but that did not help at all. In case anyone asks, I have run all the tasks in a user has administrator rights account above.

    Has anyone seen this problem before? As is, the only way I know to get Reader X is to make a new picture of the machine.

    Hi jkraniak ,

    Please try to run the cleanup tool "Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat tool - Adobe Labs" on your machine to remove all traces of the reader.

    Then, restart your machine and install the latest version of the player from here:

    If you are facing the same ask you please check with the other user account with admin rights & try these steps there to reproduce the problem.

    Recently, I went through a series of murders of the Remove programs after my younger brother had downloaded a large number of problems, among these was something called "SnapDo" and is really annoying me, I uninstalled and everything, but when I use the address bar on firefox looking for something, for example, if I type in "what is the square root of 4". , it will re - direct me to this http://search.snapdo.com/?category=Web & p = 1 & ds = st & q = What + is + square root + the ++ of + 4

  • The size of my address bar of tools has become suddenly much more great, how can I reduce the previous size?

    Yesterday morning, when opening my browser address size / the toolbar at the top of the browser will appear much larger. Actually display my regular web pages (google calendar, netscape home page, evernote web, garmin connect and brightness which are all in my toolbar) also shows much larger by clicking on it. I know how to reduce or enlarge the display of these pages by the keyboard shortcut "control - or +" or by clicking on the signs + under settings and have already done. But this has no effect on the size of the toolbar. I remember not to make any changes from the previous day. I would like to bring the size of the screen from the top of my browser on the previous settings, but have not yet find a way to do it. I tried restart firefox and so lost my addons and settings, but it didn't touch no change to the question of size. To confirm that I'm not imagining things, I also observed that bookmarks, downloads, subject: startpage, start a conversation, evernote webclipper and icon settings that I have installed the toolbar have become blurred or out of focus accordingly become so large. As the screen space is useful (yes I know I can fullscreen with f11) I would like to return to original realestate by getting the display at the top of the page in the browser to a normal size. Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

    Try to set the pref layout.css.devPixelsPerPx 1.0 on the topic: config page.

    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.
