Why the Google search page displays partially in Arabic or similar language with symbols

Works fine in Chrome.

JSCHER2000, thanks for your help. I tried the old "hl = en" thing. It did not work. Preferences were ok.

I ended up going to https://accounts.google.com (not as easy to find on phone as it could be) just signed by e-mail and password. Which resets some strangeness that shows Arabic. For good measure, I checked the settings of language than English. Which resets some strangeness that shows Arabic. All is well in the world of google to firefox!

  • Since Firefox v34, after Zoom text on a Google search page took me, the Google search page is empty after you click 'Back' to it. What is a v34 glitch?

    Since Firefox v34, search results page is empty, 1) by clicking a link in a Google search results page and loading of the linked page, 2) Zoom on the text on the page that Google took me and then without resetting the zoom text, 3) by clicking on the arrow of Firefox 'Back' to return to Google search results. If at that time I reload the page of Google results, or click back one page and will transmit then again, the full search results will be displayed then again.

    This happens on my Windows 7 PC as well as my Vista laptop. Is it a glitch with text zoom and Google in Firefox version 34?

    Sorry, this seems to be a problem with the cache in memory of Firefox: when you use a high Google zoom level the (the default setting) with "instant prediction results" then Firefox pips showing again after going back page (you can see the results for a fraction of a second before they white).

    Assuming you like your zoom level and enjoy using the instant prediction results, then the solution is to disable the part of the Firefox cached in memory by changing a setting under the covers.

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste sess and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewers and change the value from-1 to 0 (that's a zero).

    (Please change not all other parameters similar to 0-sounding or you can disable the ability of Firefox to save/restore your tabs and windows open).

    Then reload the page of Google results and the test.

    Fixed? (Or should I say, worked around?)

  • How can I stop Firefox by logging into my gmail account whenever I go to the Google search page?

    I set Google as my homepage, so whenever I start FF it connects to one of my Gmail accounts. Always the least used too.
    I would prefer not to do that and hope that there is a solution.

    Make sure that the box remember connect you on the page Gmail is not a tick.

  • 5 Firefox private browsing mode changes the google search page. Is this normal?

    Since upgrading to Firefox 5, I've noticed that when I switch to private browsing mode and go to Google, the menu at the top has a black background. I don't mind that it's a nice reminder that you're in private mode. I was wondering if this is normal?

  • Options button on the standard google search page disappeared

    Firefox 12.0
    on the google search page, I had two buttons:
    SafeSearch on/off button
    Options (gear) button
    the last button still appears on the screen, but now is empty: the gear is not displayed. When ipush result are incompatible: in some screens (search results), I get 4 options to choose, in other screens nothin happens at all.

    I really don't like this, because FF seems to have become unstable on my machine.

    As a fix as I complete reinstalled FF, without change, the problem persisted.

    IE is not this problem

    Hi madperson, thanks for the quick response. Indeed I cleaned all the cookies and cache, but in fact most websites like webmail seemed odd as well. To cut things short, I decided to reinstall an earlier version, which solved the problem. This isn't really a favorite firefox solution, but alas.

    But since then I can not get my homepage to stay together about: blank... it continues from the Google search page. I managed to link the homepage about button: empty, but when I add a new page (by clicking on the + sign next to the tab on the right most) I get the Google search page...
    Thanks in advance.

    == Started a week ago and a half.

    Hello, Linda.

    I'm afraid that your problem may be deeper than your missing homepage, but you can easily change your homepage by going to tools > Options > general and entering the address in the field "Home Page".

    I must warn you, however, that the version of Firefox you are using right now is obsolete and is no longer supported. Please install the latest version for maximum speed, security and functionality. It is completely free, as always. You can get it via Firefox update service (help > check for updates...) or at www.getfirefox.com

  • When I open a tab and start typing a URL in the address bar, my goal is switched to the google search field while I type.

    When I open a new tab in Firefox, usually the first thing I do is start typing a URL in the address bar to the new tab (normally that uses AutoComplete to sites that I visit a lot). The new tab usually displays a google search page which is fine. It's there if I need it.

    Lately, however, has changed the behavior of firefox when I open a new tab. After that I opened a new tab, my goal is taken from the address bar in the google search box. I mean not the Firefox search box either. I mean the search box on the google page. This occurs after I already started typing if I get the first letter or 2 of what I type in the search box, while the rest began to appear in the google search box. When I type a URL I want in the address bar. Not in the search box.

    On reflection, I think that there are a few extensions that try to block or reverse this behavior of the Google search page. If you check your extensions, are one of them suddenly disabled or missing?

    You can open the page modules using either:

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

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then check down to the disabled extensions.

  • Why the first Firefox page tell me that I do not use the latest version when the "about" in the menu help says I?

    I updated Firefox 2 days after seeing the message that I was not using the latest version. Download and install led and everything seems to work normally except that I still have a message on my Firefox home page telling me that I'm not using the latest version. If, on the other hand, I navigate to 'Firefox' - 'help' - "On Firefox" I tells me that I'm running Firefox 8.0.1 and "Firefox is updated.

    You can see this message under the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old default Firefox homepage. It seems that this page is no longer maintained. You seem to have Firefox installed with the latest version 8.0.1.

    If you want to than the Google search page as homepage, change your homepage to Subject: House (a new update version is now integrated into Firefox).

  • Since the update a few days ago lost sites often visited on my google search page?

    I used Google for a search engine. Before the update a few days ago, when I opened a new tab, it would give me a Google search page that shows in the lower part of 6 to 9 (forget) boxes inside which were minis first pages of my sites visited most often, so I just had to click on one of the boxes to reach the site I needed immediately.

    Since the upgrade, these boxes have been reduced to 3. If you try to move one of the cover on one of the 3 mini page, you can see that others are attached to the breast but it is impossible to click and go. All sites that were saved, seem to be there, and in each of the 3 boxes but are not accessible.

    Is anyway to recover these boxes separately?

    Thank you

    Firefox automatically adjusts the number of columns that match on the subject: newtab page if you adjust the width of the Firefox window or zoom the page in or out and no longer resizes thumbnails.
    The current version is not resize the image, but instead reduced the number of tiles to fit the current width of the screen, so you can't see the number of columns specified via the browser.newtabpage.columns preference.
    Zoom the subject: newtab page to see more tiles (Ctrl and -).

    Toggle the browser.newtab.preload pref on the about: config page in case of problems with zoom the subject: newtab 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.
