Why does firefox crash when i am trying to use the google search function?

Why does firefox start page load every time I log on

start page opens with home page every time I open fire fox

'''''"start page opens with home page"'''''
Check your home page settings. Multiple pages can be set as the home page, separated by the "|" keyboard character.

Has the iPod ever been jailbroke?

The disk drive in my iMac 8,1 has stopped working, so I now use an LG 8x Slim Portable that works. However, every time I use the LG drive, I lose contact with my Time Machine back-up drive that has to be deleted and reinstalled. Help!

It's not Logic that can't find them, it's your Komplete apps, though if you did exaclty as you say I can see no reason why they can't.
Do you know where the apps installed them in the first place? I chose a non-standard locarion for mine, but I'm sure it installs sounds to your documents folder/native instruments/name of app.
Go into the prefs of each app and choose the library location button on the library tab and point it to the relevant folder in documents/native instruments and see if that works

Why do I have to search for a wifi network most every time I use the internet?

Why do I have to search for a wifi network almost every time I use the internet?
We have Cox internet on a wireless router.
It doesn't seem to be able to hold the wireless connection.....even a couple hours.
The router sits on the desk next to the computer.
Thanks for any suggestions you have.

I don't have any trouble connecting to the internet once I choose our network from the choices.
The computer just can't remember it.

Router reboots every time i use the txt app in iphone 3gs

I have a netgear cgd24g router and it reboots only every time i use the text free app in my iphone 3gs. First i felt weird and stated to google this problem. I found people having somwhat same kind of problem with other brands and had suggested few solutions, like resetting it, changing it to a ascii security code with a $, upadating the firmware of the router etc. I have done everything but i still have the same problem. I have 2 laptops and a desktop (no wireless in desktop) nothing is wrong when all three are working together. I even tried adding two more laptops and nothing is wrong. But as soon as i open the text free app and start texting the router reboots like in resetting it. The problem is only with the txt free app. Nothing happen when i browse thru safari or use youtube etc. But wen i use the txt free app the light goes off and comes back on one by one. I even went to the extent of asking my friend to download the app in his iphone and tried it using my wifi , the same thing happened. i even switched out the old netgear router with a new one and the same thing is happening. I am tried of this. CAN ANYONE HELP ME PLEASE ?????

yes i have tried everything from changin the security type to checking the firmware version. The firware version was the latest so i didnt have to update it. About changing the router, i did switch the old netgear cgd24g to a brand new netgear cgd24g. The brand was same because that is what my service provider would give me. I like the sugestion about trying it with a different router and see if the problem persists. If the problem is gone then i will get another one. This will help me figure out where the problem is.

It worked last Friday. I don’t know if there has been any update this week. All updates are done automatically by our IT department.

Sometimes when using the Google search engine, after using the Back button in the Firefox 4.0.1 browser, I am no longer able to click in the Google search box.

This problems has been occurring on two different machines over the last two days.

I think this may not be a browser problem but rather a Google problem.
I am getting the same problem with the Google Chrome browser.

I want to remove the yahoo search bar from Firefox and use the google search bar.

I need to remove yahoo search from my Firefox and use the Google search. I did the following steps for the same.
about:config, searched keyword:URL and reset to default.
But the change is not getting affected. Pls help

Work around that I have used (my machine is running Windows XP SP3 might work on other systems as well):
1) Ensure Firefox is closed, if necessary read this in another browser
2. Open the Firefox directory on the hard drive (typically: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox)
3. Go into the 'searchplugins' folder
4. Delete the file named 'yahoo.xml'
5. Immediately restart your machine

Why does my iTunes hang every time when using automatic device detect?

Why does my iTunes hang every time that I connect either of my devices (iTouch-4th Gen, iPod Nano-5th Gen), to my Win 7 (64-bit) PC desktop? By the way, this does not happen if I open iTunes first, and then connect the device. So my workaround was to simply uncheck the checkbox that allows iTunes to start automatically upon device connection. This doesn't fix the problem, but it allows me to synch my device, but it would be nice to be able to have the autodetect work properly, so that iTunes would start normally without locking up on me and freezing. That's what I mean by 'hanging'. My whole computer doesn't freeze--only iTunes.

Hello E
Start with finding the path where the songs are on your PC by right clicking the songs that are missing in iTunes and click Get Info. You should get a window that pops up and in the Summary tab; the path will be there. Then navigate to where it was and see if the files exist. Other than that you can try to search your computer to find those files. Checkout the articles below for tips on finding the missing music, also if some of the tracks are downloaded from the iTunes Store you can download the tracks again by deleting the missing tracks from iTunes and then navigating to the purchases section in the iTunes Store to download them again.

Why do three new tabs open every time I press the "home" icon?

Three new tabs open every time I press the home icon. I and two others have looked through all my settings and have contacted Mozilla (no response) and can't figure out why this is happening? Anyone have a clue how to stop this incredibly annoying problem from continuing?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Upon install of Windows 7

See [[How to set the home page]]: Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols.
