Why used the search box does not work

• Just installed v35. Now that the search box does not work. ??

  Today I got a message that Firefox v35.0 (Windows version) is ready to install. So I let it install. Once the installation is complete and restarted Firefox, the search box is more work. It presents suggestions for my default search engine (Google), but when I click on a suggestion, nothing happens. Or if I type the search term in directly or click on the arrow (right out of the box), nothing happens.

  If I put the search term in the URL window, it works, but I prefer to use the search box separate of the address bar.

  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:

  • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

    

    click Help

    

    then select restart with disabled modules.

  • In previous versions of Firefox, click on the Firefox button in the upper left of the Firefox window and click help (or click on help in the Menu bar, if you do not have a Firefox button) and click on restart with disabled modules.

  If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode 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.

• "Search" box does not work in Firefox (Int Explorer OK)

  When I try to search something using the box in the upper right corner of the Firefox browser, it always leads to the top of the "Google" search page instead of the search results. All attempts to search for Google product page always the same coming empty Google page. I have no problem with Internet Explorer.

• Streaming mp3 using the Audio tag does not work in the app, while working in the browser

  Hello

  I fight with this problem on the second day and still can not get it to work.

  I'm on Soundcloud mp3 streaming and all works in Wellington and the browser on the device, he refuses to work in the application.

  -Do you have someone at - it had the similar problem?

  -Have you had a chance to make the streaming solution work in app?

  -It could be cause by the fact that Soundcloud uses a 302 redirect to a temporary URL?

  Thanks in advance

  I think that the redirect can be a problem. It works if you choose a url that links directly to a stream for example

  http://AUDIO1.ideastream.org/wcpn64

  Have you tried? I used the audio tag to read feeds with success on OS6 and OS7. On OS6 was a problem of the CBC, but the original CBC played yet.

  I'll try to find some editor 'lost' 97 files on my system (looking for * .pub).  I tried searching and advanced without success, even when research fron "C:".

• Disabling USB using the registry key does not work

  I have disabled the use of the USB storage by changing the registry under USBSTOR key and making the value between 3 and 4.

  Once I did 4, after the reboot, the same setting works and USB is disabled

  But after 4 or 5 days, when I try to insert the USB flash drive, the value changes automatically from 4 to 3, and the PC detects the USB storage device.

  This also occurs in Windows XP and Windows 7.

  Kindly help.

  Jocelyne

  Hello, Jocelyne,.

  Start > type CMD

  Right click on CMD and select run as administrator

  Type the following command: regsvr32/u usbstor.sys

  Press enter

  This disables the driver without deleting.

  How can I prevent users to connect to a USB storage device?

• Search bar does not work.

  I am running FF25.0.1 on Windows 7, but I had this problem for several versions, do not remember when he started. The search bar does not work with any engine, I can type and the cursor flashes but it does not research when I hit enter or use the search button.

  I tried:
  -clean the uninstall/reinstall firefox
  -create a profile
  -in the course of running as an administrator
  -test in safe mode
  -suppression of research and searchmetadata.json, formhistory.sqlite, etc..
  -removal of the plugins to search then by reinstalling ff to generate news
  -use the searchreset addon

  After some of them, the search bar will work only once to help enter or the button before returning to the uselessness.

  I'm more or less certain that I don't have a malicious software. I do not use the address bar to search because it is a little more complicated to use terms, including the slashes or openings of the diaphragm, and put except that I do not have the functions which do not hang out.

  Start the computer in Mode safe mode with network support Windows (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test to see if that helps.

  Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

  Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

  • 25 Firefox: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html

  Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

  • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

  Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.
  • It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox

  Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
