Adding new search engine(bing)

is it possible. anything but google

Hi lhcurlett,
You should read the [[Search bar]] Knowledge Base article. It will show you how to switch search engines, add more, and even remove Google completely if that's what you want to do.
Hopefully this helps!

I installed version 3.6.13 and discovered that my favorite search engines (Bing and Startpage) were not compatible with this version. Can this incompatibility be rectified?

I installed version 3.6.13 and discovered that my favorite search engines (Bing and Startpage) were not compatible with this version. Can this incompatibility be rectified?

Makes enough sense and I thought it might be a profile issue, but only after the fact, so why does is not say this upfront ...
In the release notes I find this about installation:
-- and exactly what I read:
[[http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/4.0b7/releasenotes/]]
Installing
Please note that installing Firefox 4 Beta will not overwrite your existing installation of Firefox. You won’t lose any of your bookmarks or browsing history, but some of your extensions and other add-ons might not work until updates for them are made available.
nothing more nothing less... nowhere in that installation process does it say, state or imply -- Create a new profile first -- or see xxxxx article about using betas /pre-release, etc...
Well, I could cry about it more, but I guess not too many other people have had this problem, I did search a bit before posting my question , and I consider myself pretty competent about this kind of stuff..
Next task ... ... ... Is there any place a backup is stored in the profile folders that have maybe my 3.6.12 Extensions and Extensions settings????
I know the main folder is located here " %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ "
but I am not currently on that particular PC to look at it to see if I can figure it out myself.
So any help will be GREATLY appreciated!!!
I may have a backup created recently with MozBackup 1.4.10, but again I will have to look on that PC when I get back there tomorrow... ... ...
So any help will be GREATLY appreciated!!!
Thanks for your time

Error message trying to install new search engines

I am running Firefox 19.0.2 installed yesterday on a new desktop PC at the office. (Old PC failed to boot on Monday.) I have completed most of my customization without difficulty. However, when I try to install new search engines, it doesn't seem to matter which one, I get a pop-up error message:
"Sorry, you need a Mozilla-based browser (such as Firefox) to install a search plug-in."
I had no problems installing new search engines under Firefox 16 3rd quarter of last year when I started this job. Why am I unable to install search engines in FF 19?

Hello lafritz65, '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
thank you

When I go to google on firefox and search for a topic, I try to open a website and another website (morsearch, clickkick, etc) will open up instead into a new search engine with the same topic . What is this?

I go to google. I type in "plants". A lot of sites will pop up in google. I click on a site (does not matter which usually). The site will then start to switch to a new url from (click kick, morsearch, etc) turning into a new search engine with the same topic and more options. I never get to the page I want unless I type the url directly into the address box. It always comes back with a search engine. So far I have found this only happens while starting in a search engine. When I get into the actual page, everything is fine. I am using McAfee for security and it hasn't caught a virus or anything yet. Help please! Thanks!

Install, update, and run these programs in this order. They are all free for personal use, but some have limited functionality in the "free mode" - but those are features you really don't need to find and remove the problem that you have. '''''(Not all programs detect the same Malware.)'''''

Is there a way to stop Firefox from suggesting to add new search engines to my search bar?

Is there a way to stop Firefox from suggesting to add new search engines to my search bar whenever I visit websites that suggest to us to add their search engines?
I searched a lot and couldn't find any help. How to stop websites from suggesting to my Firefox search bar to add their search engines? I don't want to add other search engines other than the ones I organized. I don't want my list to look more distracting and longer.

Firefox doesn't do that. That's either a feature of the website you are visiting or possible Malware on that PC.
A screenshot of that might be helpful. 
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-create-screenshot-my-problem 
It is best to use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed a maximum file size of 1 MB.
Then use the '''Browse ....''' button below the '''''Post a Reply''''' text box to upload the screenshot.

Running Firefox 10.0.2, cannot add new search engines from Mycroft Project. Error message: "you will need a browser which supports opensearch to install this plugin" Please help with steps on how to fix this issue in Firefox, thank you

Can't add new search engines from Mycroft Project in FF 10.0.2. Error message states: "you will need a browser which supports opensearch to install this plugin"

You're welcome.
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
*Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

CF9 New Search Engine Issues?

I have an older application that I have upgraded and I am only having issues with the Search Engine going form Verity to Solr.
I have a simple query tht gets the content for each page and indexes it. The code works awesome in Varity - but when I run it on the Solr system I get the following error:
Error_opening_new_searcher_exceeded_limit_of_maxWarmingSearchers4_try_again_later
Also - when this errors out (only this error) - the prowser shows the HTML Source of the error instead of the typical?
Any help, please!
There are only 207 records that I am trying to index?
between 20-25 actually get indexed.
<cfindex action="PURGE" collection="#application.stSiteData.objectCollection#">
 <cfquery name="qGetData" datasource="#application.stSiteData.datasource#">
 SELECT objectID
 FROM Objects
 WHERE active = 1
 </cfquery>
 <cfset myList = valueList(qGetData.objectID)>
 <cfloop list="#myList#" index="xobjectID">
 <CFQUERY name="qGetObjectData" datasource="#application.stSiteData.datasource#">
 SELECT *
 FROM objects INNER JOIN
 Pages ON objects.pageID = Pages.pageID
 WHERE Pages.exSiteSearch <> 1
 and objects.objectID = '#xobjectID#'
 </CFQUERY>
 <cfindex action="UPDATE"
 collection="#application.stSiteData.objectCollection#"
 key="objectID"
 query="qGetObjectData"
 type="CUSTOM"
 title="label"
 body="label,objectData"
 custom1="pageid"
 custom2="">
 </cfloop>

So I am still working on this and it seems that it's some kinf of Commit issue?
I don't understand why I can index 200 records without CF crashing? Thiis doens seem logical that the new SE would be such a POS?
I have tried updated the XML config form 4 to 8 - all that I could find, but I am still getting the same error that you see above - so Im not sure that changing that setting did anything?
This seems like there is a simple answer somewhere - I can't be the only one on these boards that is having issues?

ADF query panel with table, adding new search fields dynamically

I am a beginner very new to ADF world. I have a ADF query panel with table which has its source from a ViewCriteria. I need to add a new search field on the form dynamically based on the user's need. Assume I am using a Employee table and I have search "employee ID" as one field in the form, upon clicking a add button in the form I need to have a another "employee ID" field appears along with the already existing one.
I tried to add the condition in ViewCriteria but do not know how to add it ?
Could some one pls address how it can be approached ?

User, please always tell us your jdev version.
Well, this use case need some thinking to be done. What do you want to archive with adding a new query field to the panel? As you said you already have one field for employeeId and now, on a click on a button, you add another one. How would the resulting query work with the new field? Should it use 'and' to concatenate the query or should it use 'or'?
I suggest that you use the ADF Riche Client Demo (http://jdevadf.oracle.com/adf-richclient-demo/faces/index.jspx) select the Query node and then select 'af:query'. This shows you what is possible otu of hte box using the af:query component. You can add fields to existing queries in advanced mode (e.g. use system query 5, which starts with an empty panel and allows you to add fields).
Once you understand how this works you may come back with a more detailed use case description or you have found the solution already. Read the documentation on af:query along with trying otu the component.

Can't submit keywords to GoDaddy's new Search Engine Vis. Service

So, I bought (for $3.00 per month) GoDaddy's SearchEngineVisibility service. It allowed me to make and submit a SiteMap, something GoDaddy would not let me do with the Rage software I bought. So far so good - but GoDaddy shows you a 10 point checklist of how you are doing. It says I have not submitted keywords. I tried typing in keywords on the GoDaddy interface. That did not work. I called GoDAddy. They said the keywords must be defined, outlined, selected - whatever in the program that built the website. I said iWeb but I did not find any function in iWeb that would let me choose keywords. They said iWeb can't do that. Said iWeb is not for business use. It is more for people who want to share photos with grandma and such.
So, how do I submit my keywords to GoDaddy? I would have thought that once I put up the Sitemap that Google/Bing, etc. would be able to crawl the site and automatically select keywords.
Someone said I need to just grab the HTML code from my iWeb site, buy Dreamweaver and paste the HTML code there and then Dreamweaver would allow me to define keywords and submit them.
Any ideas?

After creating the sitemap.xml, Sitemap Automator uploads it to the root folder on the server - if you enter the correct info!
Before it can add it to Google, Yahoo, Bing and ASK.com, you have to notify each one of your site's existence and, in the case of Google, Yahoo and Bing, open accounts with them. Google and Yahoo require an HTML file and Bing an XML one.
There is no screen in iWeb. You decide what keywords that people will use to search for any page of your site and use them in the text of that page. The search engines will find them. SEKeyword is just a tool to help you find relevant keywords and your Google Dashboard will give you a list of the ones they find relevant once they have indexed your site.
The steps required to submit your website to search engines are listed HERE.

How do you uninstall the search engine "Bing"

I am trying to download e-print (Print what you want) and I keep getting a message saying I must uninstall the current Bing Search Engine. Actually, I never downloaded Bing. It just appeared. Never use it. I went into programs to look for it so I could uninstall it but it is not listed, yet it shows up on my toolbar. Help!!!!

had this problem after accidentally downloaded the yahoo toolbar along with an adobe product. Firstly, tried to remove it control panel in add/remove programmes but it refused to uninstal. Since then was told by technicians of my ip to use Revo uninstaller the free ed. Next step was go to tools then options. On the general tab, at the bottom you will find manage-add-ons. under search provider do not want. f yahoo is still there disable it.
Also go to internet options in control panel and set up there too. Be sure to find and tick the option that other search engines cannot change yours. Be sure to set the appropriate home page.

Adding New search criteria in Advanced Search

Hi,
In the page "PosVpoMainPG.xml", I have to add new search criteria "PO Description" apart from the existing ones.
Can it be done by personalization? How?
If not, please let me know the steps to do it from Jdeveloper.
Regards,
Ashish

Check whether Query region has been used for the Page development and also figure out the construction mode (resultBasedSearch or autoCustomizationCriteria). You can create the extra column in the result table and define mappings as appropriate.

New search engine

Hi, Molly. I see you've just replaced the Inktomi search engine with FAST search. Congratulations. How does this affect searching? Is there a way to put an advanced search page somewhere? I did all my searches on this site (and on google... and on yahoo...) using the advanced search page.
I realize this isn't only a forum issue, but I was hoping you'd have some information (and hopefully some pull) on this.
Try to take over the world!

Thanks for the quick reply, Julie.
First, while the advanced search may be used by less than 1% of the users, those few are probably the ones who know how to look for stuff. Most people, when looking for something, will make some choises which make the search results less ideal (like using too many words, or too few, or words with potential spelling problems and so on), while those who use advanced search pages, IMHO, use them because they know how to exploit search engines. So, it would be nice to support those few.
Second, there were some weird glitches in the system. For example, a few days ago I did a search for the thread congartulating Greg McKaskle on posting 1000 messages to the exchange. When I used the search box on the top of the page (with "Entire Site" selected), I got 3 results. When I used the advanced page, I got many more - the first or second of which being the one I wanted. I tried the same thing now - when I searched the entire site I got 42 results - most for job applications. When I searched just the forums, I got the one I wanted.
Because of this behavior, and because I don't always know exactly what I want, I almost never used the check boxes to uncheck topics but instead let the search engine and the search phrase get the proper results, so I actually don't like the fact that the results are sorted for me.
Last thing - I actually looked at the help page earlier, but I don't like using syntax in search engines. I much prefer advanced search pages. So, if it's possible, please create an advanced search page for me and people like me who would like to exploit the power of the search engine. Thanks.
P.S.
I'm actually fairly sure that if advanced search pages were made default, people would get used to them, but maybe I'm wrong. Thanks anyway.

Adding Google search Engine.

Hello, How to add google search engine with desktop application.

When I try to add google search engine in my application, its throwing 403 error. Can anyone say what is the error?

Cant use any search engines bing , google,as soon I type a search Firefox 4 hangs

my firefox4 hangs as soon I try to load an search engines, Bling or google,cant copy URL as all freezes

I just upgraded to FF4 and I also find it hangs when I use any of the search engines. The Task Manager shows Firefox is grabbing more and more memory and is showing the "not responding" message. In Firefox the cursor wheel just spins and spins.
I restarted FF using the "without add-ons" option and everything worked fine!
How do I find out what add-ons I have installed? Presumably one of them is causing a problem.

Need assistance adding another search engine

I have an iMAC.
I am satisfied with Safari, but want the flexibility to use an additional search engine at the same time.
How can I set up my computer so I have the ability to surf with another internet service provider (ex. explorer, google chrome) while I am using Safari?
Thanks,
Steve

Dear Rudegar,
Thank you for prompt reply, and I apologize for not asking a technically correct question.
I am currently streaming music through the Internet using Safari.
I want to steam another recording (at the same time), and was told I need to access another browser in order to perform this function.
Judging by your reply, I think the answer is "Maybe - but I need to check out https://extensions.apple.com" to see if this is feasible.
Did I ask the question more clearly? Did I understand your response?
Thanks,

Adding new search engine(bing)
