Other browsers like Safari will search for a string with a dot in it but firefox assumes all such strings refer to servers and will not search, how to do this?

Trying to find out how to use my default browser better.

You can use a keyword search and add a keyword to a specific search engine in "Options/Preferences > Search" (click in the Keyword column of the search engine line).

Cannot find how to get cloud to change this. My Iphone says I have not backed up in 9 weeks because of iCloud.  Can anyone help me or give me some advise please
    Thank you so very much

    Same thing happened to me. My son's iPod touch suddenly started indicating that my "username or PW had changed" or was "incorrect" so I paid Apple $30 to find out that all that was required was updating the software by plugging his iPod into my computer & syncing with iTunes. My problem was then solved.

  • I installed my credit card and it asks me for my security code. I typed it but it tells me to write a valid one and it is. How can I fix this?

    please help me

    I had this same problem too, it's a little embarrassing, but make sure your credit or debit card has more than $3.00-$5.00 in the account or left in your line of credit,(ex. Make sure you haven't maxed out the credit card) if not iTunes will not accept the card at all, if this doesn't work, check with your bank to make sure that the address you have set up with them and the address you have setup in your iTunes account match, otherwise that will cause an issue with the security code as well  !!!

    Hello, Wyseup. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Most likely this email address has been attempted to be setup as an Apple ID at some point.  You can reset your Apple ID password via the steps in the first article below.  If you do not have access to the email account, need assistance or are not receiving the password reset link, see the second article.

  • SO HOW I DELTED MY LIBRARY FOR MY MOTION3.2  PROGRAM AND DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GET IT BACK HELPPLEASE!

    I do not know how to restore my library with all the 3d effects, particles etc and need directions on how to do this so that I can create those awesome action art pieces. thank you

    Restore it from your backup.
    If you do not have a backup and you deleted it and emptied the trash, then unfortunately, you are out of luck. Unless you wish to pay for a data recovery software or service (by company techs).

  • Does FireFox have a security icon like other internet browsers like Safari?

    FireFox have a security icon like other internet browsers like Safari?

    If you are referring to a "lock", it was removed with the Statusbar in Firefox 4. The S-I-B is used to indicate a secure connection.<br />
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Site+Identity+Button
    This extension will add a "lock" in the S-I-B display.<br />

  • Proxy Server asking for username and password almost 6 times for every page I load, but the same doesn't happen with other browsers like chrome

    The same question keeps popping up again and again "The proxy moz-proxy://proxy.iitm.ac.in:3128 is requesting a username and password. The site says: "moz-proxy://proxy.iitm.ac.in:3128""
    Even after i give the right details, it asks me like 5 more times before it completely loads the page. Some times it happens only 2 times.
    With other browsers like chrome, it asks only in the beginning. it doesn't occur after that.
    This started occurring only recently. i upgraded to firefox 9.0 and it functioned properly for more than 12 hours before it started occuring. i tried downgrading back to 8.0.1 but the problem still continued.

    i'm afraid i need to use proxy settings to connect to internet. The settings are all fine because it used to work properly all this time. i specify the proxy address and the port, which is correct, i am very confident. it is so because the page actually loads on firefox, but not before it asks for my user name and password for it a lot of times, and for every page. for other browsers, it asks only in the beginning, that is, when i start the browser.
    i've put three pics here. under the first two settings, the third image showing the user name and password thingy popping up. this happens a lot of times for every page.

  • Have just upgraded to version 4 and when I go to Goggle search for a website it shows me a list but will not open any.

    Have just upgraded to version 4 and when I go to Goggle search for a website it shows me a list but will not open any. If I use the bookmarks all of the websites open perfectly. I've closed Firefox down and opened again and a message says "how embarassing" and tells me to restore or start a new session. Have tried both but still will not let me open any websites on the google search page.

    . I did however, delete the majority of my photos off of iPhoto after I backed them up because I needed room in my library.
    exactly how did you delete these photos?

  • Gmail loads/refreshes several times without letting me compose an email only in firefox not other browsers like IE.

    I really like Firefox and would like to continue to use it for accessing my gmail, but this problem has been occurring for several months now and it's kind of irritating. The fact is that gmail only acts up in Firefox and none of the other browsers like IE. Please help!

    This problem is haaping to you there is reasons are
    1. Old FF , so 1st update your browser
    2.or net speed , beczzz gmail needs high speed .. high means not like 3G ..it should be approximately 25-30kbps . As u wrote this doesn't happen in IE , becz IE is mad for work in low speed also bt it takes time to load .. ones load never refresh without you permition bt FF works fastly so it try to open as it has dwnloded ,, bt half part cant be stable long .so it refreshes..........
    So now update ur browser n use high n stable INTERNET ....

  • Problem with searching for 'empty' emails with BAPI_BUPA_SEARCH

    Dear ABAP'ers.
    I have got a small problem with BAPI_BUPA_SEARCH.
    I Use this BAPI to search for Business Partners with the Email condition.
    I put rhe Email to lv_email variable, it works ok.
        lv_email = ' '
        CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_BUPA_SEARCH'
          EXPORTING
            email = lv_email
          TABLES
            searchresult = lt_searchresult   <= returns no BuPas
            return       = ls_bapiret2  .
    But I need to have a possibility to search for such Business Partners who have got no email address. Unfortunatellu when I pass an empty lv_email to BAPI, it returns no Business Partners whilst such BuPas exist in database.
    Is there some possibility to search for those BuPas who have got no email address assigned?
    I will be thankful for help.
    Regards,
    P.

    Can you query ADR6 table where SMTP_ADDR = space.
    and pick the PERSNUMBER or ADDRNUMBER and pick the Patners related to that ..

  • I'm new to Mac and I have a Mac Mini. Could you please tell me how I could paste an URL to a video downloader like "Coolmuster Video Downloader for Mac"? I can copy the url but I could not paste it on the downloader. I appreciate your help to my problem.

    Is this happing because the external is formatted to PC and not mac?
    Yes that is correct.
    Will I need to get a mac external hard drive if I wish to continue to save my documents like this?
    If you no longer use a PC you could format this drive for the Mac. However be aware that formatting a drive will erase all the data on it. So you would need someplace to copy the data off this drive to while you did the re-format and then you could copy the data back.
    You could get another drive, format it for the Mac and copy the data to it. Then re-format the original drive and use it as a backup drive. Always good to have backups.
    Post back with the drive type and size of the current drive, if you are doing backups now and how and if you still need to access this drive from a PC.

  • TS1702 i cant download new application on my Iphone everytime i open app store then searching for the application i want to download when i Tap the FREE sign it become half square and never downloaded.

    i cant download new application on my Iphone everytime i open app store then searching for the application i want to download when i Tap the FREE sign it become half square and never downloaded.

    Sometimes this happens because the app won't run on the iOS version of the device you are trying to install it to.  Go to the app store and make sure it will run on iOS 3.1.3 (many only run on iOS 4 or higher).

  • Problem in app search for us store with ios 6 .

    Hi ,
    I developed an application which is available on all countries , But while searching for the app with app name in us store . It does not list the application on the first page ,  it show the application on second page Instead it shows a similar name recomendations and ask user to search that app instead on first page.
    It seems to users that there is no such application exist with this name so they ommit the application.
    But on all other store it show application without any issue 0
    Please help me with this issue , I dont added my application name in the keyword list .

    Whether an older compatible version of the app is available in the store depends upon whether the developer of the app has made it available. As far as I know the app needs to be in your purchase history for it to work i.e. it is only via the Purchased tab in the App Store app on the device that you will get the prompt as to whether to download an older compatible version (if one is available), not from the main part of the store.

  • HT1926 I was prompted to install iTunes 11.1.4 this morning. It failed (first time EVER) with the comment that 'msvcr80.dll' was not available. Upon searching for that .dll in my computer, I found it to be all over the place! Thoughts?

    I've NEVER had a version update fail. I did go to 'Tools' and download for a manual install of this update as the info screen suggested. It, too, failed. After searching for the 'missing' msvcr80.dll on my computer, I found it all over the place!
    Ran a malware & virus scan with nothing evil popping up.
    Tried going back to a restore point before a previous update and doing the install. It failed.
    OS: Vista Home Premium x64, SP2 (and current with all MS updates)
    Now I'm pretty nervous re: syncing with ANYTHING-especially my iPod that has all my music I teach from at work.

    Solving the iTunes Installation Problems in Windows
    1. Apple has posted their solution here: iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows- Unable to install or open - MSVCR80 issue.
    2. If the Apple article does not fully resolve the problem for you, then try Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates - MSVCR80.
