Change search options back

This is supposed to be a "user friendly" browser...why do you continue to make changes that we, as "users" cannot opt out of. I liked the search section the way it was and I want it back.

The new Search Bar scheme can be reverted.
Open up '''about:config''' ''(typed in the Location Bar)''
Right-click and toggle this preference to '''''false'''''
'''browser.search.showOneOffButtons'''
Then restart Firefox.

Change search options to FILE NAME only

Is there a way to change the search options to always search for FILE NAME only?
I don't know who'd saech for contents every time, that would seem like a last resort if you couldn't find what you are originally looking for and forgot the file name. We have 10's of thousands of files and having the stupid contents pop up EACH time I want to do a search wastes so much time.
Help!

The only way to bypass the crippled Spotlight search is to use a tailored savedSearch. This is what I use. The system files allows finding things in the stupidly hidden user's Library:

Find/Change search options vanish

I'm using ID CC 2014 in Windows 7. I have had this same problem since CS4 and it is driving me crazy. At various times, I'll open the Find/Change dialog, and will see that not all of the search choices are there. All Documents and Documents are always there, but the other options of story or selection are not (and yes, I'm either in story or have selected text).
The only way to fix it is to exit and restart ID.
Any thoughts on a permanent fix?

Certainly a good thought; I've got lots of stuff running, though nothing particularly unusual. It would be probably harder to track that down than to just make do with the current situation.

Please create "on-the-fly change search engine" option ALSO for when we mark [word] in a text, then right-click, then choose "Search [engine x] for [word]"?

In Firefox 34, you have changed the search bar.
The new style is perfect for those who always starts by typing in, letter for letter, the search term.
People such as myself, we almost never type in the search term,
but instead we mark a [word] in a text, right-click this marked [word], then select "Search [engine x] for [word]".
Speaking for myself, I have now a total of 36 search engine providers, but I usually only use 7 of those.
I use "Wikipedia (English)" most of the time..
- but then I will switch to e.g. "AniDB" and use that one for 1 hour..
- or switch to "Google" and use that one for 30 minutes..
- or switch to "Wikipedia (Norwegian)" and use that one for 2 hours..
- or switch to "Wiktionary (English)" and use that one for 15 minutes..
..and then I will switch back to "Wikipedia (English)" again.
The way the search bar was in Firefox 33 and earlier, I could very easily switch the default search engine.
Just one click to open the drop-down menu, then choose one.
In Firefox 34, I have to choose "Tools" -> "Options", the "Search" tab..
- before I can THEN click to open the drop-down menu.
4 clicks instead of 1, that's like 400% more work..!
Also, the fact that I have to go into "Options".. make this..
..I don't know how to put it, it's a kind of psychological barrier that I have to overcome each time.
I mean, before Firefox 34, I went to the "Options" window like maybe 4 times each YEAR,
now, I have to go there 4 times each DAY..!
I am not saying you should revert to the old style Search bar,
as I feel that those you are typing search terms are indeed very happy for this new style..
Instead, I think of 2 possible ways to create happiness also for us that do mark text and choose "Search.."
1) An "on-the-fly change search engine" option ALSO for when we mark [word] in a text, then right-click, then choose "Search [engine x] for [word]".
This could work as a cascading menu option, where it says..
Search for [word] in -> [engine x]
..and where [engine x] was the current default engine, and all the other engines was listed underneath,
just like the drop-down menu when you switch the default engine.
Additionally, you could have an on / off checkbox in the "Options" "Search" tab, where you had this option:
"Change default search engine when choosing another from the drop-down menu"
THIS would actually be PERFECT.. It would be even much BETTER than in Firefox 33 and earlier..! :-)
2) If there are things with the first option that don't work (something I've missed etc),
then maybe you could have an on / off checkbox in the "Options" "Search" tab, where you had this option:
"Use old-style search bar"
This would be off by default, but when switched on, it would give us the old Firefox 33 style Search bar.

Strongly recommend Context Search extension which will solve your problem

Are there any known issues with the epub plugin causing firefox to revert search engine back to yahoo and then disabling the ability to change search settings?

My wife recently added a plugin, epub reader. Upon starting up Firefox the next day she noticed that the default search engine was changed back to Yahoo after we previously fixed this. Furthermore the ability to change search settings was grayed out. After epub reader was removed the problem was solved. I am surprised that I am unable to find anything written to this end about epub reader. Is this a tool promoted and distributed by Yahoo?
Incidentally, how much would each user need to contribute to get mozilla away from Yahoo? Yahoo is, in my opinion, little more than an advertising vehicle, and not a real search engine.

I went to Costco today and asked long known VZW Kiosk rep re what phone would he recommend...DX, DI or Fascinate.
Not to my surprise, I was told that DX is the best of those three. Given the fact that all three is the same price $199, it indicates that is has nothing to do with price.
When I acquired him about how Fascinate sales going, rep told me that since that phone went for sale this Thursday, local Costco only sold 10 Fascinate but that not all...7 of them were returned back to Costco by Saturday. That is a 70% return rate which seems to be way too high for the high level smartphone.
At the same time, local Costo VZW kiosk can't keep up with demand of the DX, they are being sold out as soon as they are getting them. I am not advertising for DX here as I am myself briefly owned DX as soon as it was released and its problem with reboot forced me to return it as I didn't want to deal with replacement as I had bad experience in the past two years with VZW replacing my phones every two to three month with replacement phone being worse then the one that is being replaced.
There is no such a thing as a perfect smartphone (sorry to all iPhone fans) but VZW should take a special "achievement" award for screwing up such a wonderful phone as Galaxy S.
I can only hope that either DX with 2.2 will be better than the one with 2.1 or I will wait for what is coming up with HTC in November.

When I startup Firefox, I always get "Welcome to Firefos" tab. I have tried to change mu options, but when I close Firefox, the options revert back to the origional options before I changed them. How do I correct thest problems??

Looks that your current profile isn't working properly.
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile:
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

Good write-up ;-)

Why is there no "SEARCH OPTION" in the Windows Store? Apps missing be nice if I could find them !

Since on this journey from Win 8 consumer preview to Win 8 retail preview ..And no currently trying out Win 8 Pro...It verified if it was gonna give me back ( allowed to re-download ) the apps I was used/had in previous editions. The Store gives you
a selection of YOU APPS from previous versions of the OS preview of apps you installed and currently would want to reinstall. Various versions of the Consumer preview I installed 2 out the 4 times i installed the OS seen I had installed the app Comixology.
When the first time I installed Retail preview it didn't have it in my list nor was it listed in the store! Same goes with Iheart Radio and Slacker Radio though numerous installments of the OS. Now trying out the Win 8 Pro 9200 version It showed I at
one point no matter what PC I used ( I own a few and bought a new one recently ) It showed at one point I installed Comixology. Yet it didn't show Iheart Radio or Slacker in my install list of old to reinstall nor was it even in the Store!!!! \\\So
what the hell gives ????? I mean If there was a SEARCH Option it would make it easier to track these Metro ( whatever they are calling it now -personally I think they should call it FRAMES as in Window Frames :P When you go on these
programs sites they only offer up Apple or Android app downloads and nothing mentioning of Metro or Win 8 -which is understandable due to not being released yet but still if the Store can't comply with your history of app install base ( paid or free ) and
you can't have the ability to retrieves said apps you once installed how can that be trusted if and when paid apps are bought if you are only to reinstall the entire OS and find that your app is not obtainable via offered through the main store or even in
your downloads app install history. I hope they fix this issue as it's been pissing me off since this whole testing thing!!

Sorry if I offended you by using an anecdote - the actions of kids are simply an easy way to explore the actions of adults. Growing up doesn't change base instincts. Most people (myself included) tend to have an immediate distrust of change when
it is not change that they are instigating, when it is forced upon them. What better example is there than a child, where many big decisions are made for them?
As for the new interface, I didn't catch on until it was revealed to me (or I hit my head against the wall, can't remember), so I'm not saying it is easy. Better education is needed, but going back to the old way doesn't help. The five or six
questions I have answered today are questions that I myself had, and wished someone had answered for me. This is a
drastic change from old versions of Windows. I even told my boss yesterday that I can't see his company (I'm a contractor) switching any time soon - too much new stuff to learn. That being said, once there are some good training tools available,
I do believe that this OS will be a good choice - it does feel more intuitive after only a few days of use. A training course is likely necessary for new users, however my guess is that this will wind up being a beneficial change (long-run)
for IT departments, because the system does feel more aimed towards the casual user. No matter what program you use, the search and settings are in one easy place.
I admittedly do not have a lot of files in my Skydrive, however the file that is there is purple, while the folders are blue. Not sure if all files are like that, and I really do not have the time to explore those differences. That being said,
the number in the bottom-right seems pretty self-explanatory, the number of child elements in the container. I barely remember the old Skydrive interface, however I do remember it felt clunky. Whether or not the changes are a true
improvement, it does feel more streamlined.
Metro (or whatever it is called now) is confusing. It is scary. (My word, not yours, nor am I trying to imply it.) It is definitely
different from the past. But it makes sense. Same interface on every MS product: Xbox, Windows, and Phone. Microsoft didn't exactly
pioneer this idea, either. Apple has been creeping in that direction for a while now. As I said previously, I can move around faster in the new Start menu than I could in the old, and I can actually do
more without ever putting a hand on the mouse - for anyone that is waist-deep in computers, regardless of their specific job, that tends to be a
good thing.
There are a lot of growing pains here, for both Microsoft and the consumer. Has MS gotten it right? Not yet, not entirely, but the goal is clear.
If your complaint is on broken
functionality, then I wouldn't disagree with you. There is plenty of that, and I think it was a bit foolish of Microsoft not to have a Connect site up for such things. (If I'm wrong on that, and there is one, please point me that way. I'm
still stuck with Explorer.exe crashing from click-scrolling.)
As for disliking the big changes, well, I can't agree with you on that at all. Again, it wasn't an easy transition, but now that I'm here, I don't want to go back. I want the true
bugs fixed, but not having a search bar seems more like being stuck on old ways of doing things than a real problem. That kind of thing can even lead to puking.

Search option for 'Recents' in Dialer.

Is there anyway I can have a search option in the recent dialer list for the incoming/outgoing/missed call that I had in recent past, which could be easily searched by typing the name for maybe calling back/messaging or simply checking call details?

This is easy. From the List of Item, open Form Setting. Then change Item Description to be the 1st column.
Thanks,

Changing view options in Finder

When searching in Finder I have three columns, name, kind and last opened. How can I change these options, e.g. add size or last modified criteria?
Thanks

Ah yes - spotlight and search. I have not upgraded to Leopard for two reasons - and this is one of them - no options for viewing - name, kind and date modified are somewhat useless when you need to identify which is which in 20 identical looking files - as if they hired a Microsoft programmer.
Only thing to do is bang on at Apple to convince them to put this back...

Removing Right-Click Search Option

I don't recall seeing this in Tiger, but when I right-click on my Mighty Mouse and the cursor happens to be on a word, instead of getting the "Back" item that I want the contextual menu comes up with "Search in Spotlight" and "Search in Google". This is highly inconvenient when reading a text-heavy page like the NY Times; I spend an inordinate amount of time making sure that the cursor is on white space before right-clicking.
I've looked in the Spotlight and mouse preference pane to no avail. I'm probably missing the answer there, but could anyone tell me how to turn off this search option so that I return to the "Back" function that I want.
Thanks.

I also created an account to express my gratitude. Thank you so much. I hate stealth changes to programs I use.

Changing Search Window In Maps

Does anyone know how I can change the Maps search window back to "search" from "start-end". My phone loads the search window for a second and then immediately changes to the driving directions window.

Have you upgraded to 1.1.3?
There should be an option to change back to Search.
X out of the addresses and see if that helps.
