Enter key no longer works in address bar after up dating to firefox 10

I up dated fire fox to ver.10 last night and since then the enter key will not work in the address bar

This might be caused by a broken add-on, like the AVG browser extension. Try disabling add-ons by following the instructions at '''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''.

Enter key no longer works in address bar

Hi, In the last couple of days, the enter key no longer works in the address bar, which is really annoying !
If I type the address I want to go to, and then hit "enter", nothing happens. I have to manually click on the "go to" icon to the right of the bar.
Is this a setting I can change back please, I certainly haven't done it knowingly or willingly, and it is really spoiling my web use on FF. I am on 3.6.13.
Cheers !

Thanks cor-el, that was exactly the problem, all solved now, thanks for your help !

All of a sudden my Enter key no longer works in SQL Developer.

All of a sudden my Enter key no longer works in SQL Developer. I don't know how I managed to disabled it. Can anyone tell me how to re-enable it?
I already tried the following:
- I closed the application and re-opened it. - It didn't work
- I re-started my machine. I didn't work
Help! Thank you

The same thing has just happened to me and this was very useful to correct the problem --- but now I am wondering why or how this happened. To the best of my knowledge, I haven't make any setting changes so why did I lose the Enter action?

Enter key no longer works for calculator or emails

When using the calculator on my Blackberry Curve 8330, the "enter" key no longer works as the "equals" key - nothing happens. It also has stopped working when composing emails and trying to hit "enter" to create a break between paragraphs. Any suggestions on how to get my "enter" key back?

Thanks cor-el, that was exactly the problem, all solved now, thanks for your help !

How to fill out the clipboard under "about:support" when enter button does not work in address bar? Thearrow button does not work either?

My enter btton does not work in the address bar or search engine. I have done the restart in safe mode...deleted and reinstalled firefox...done the malware/adware checks...still no improvement.
I was asked to do the "about:support" then click enter for the clipboard to paste the system notes into. That is not an option however because the orginal problem is the enter button not working. Ideas?

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

Enter button doesn't work in address bar.

After inputting a site address in the address bar, either through typing or from the history/autocomplete, pressing enter does not send me to the page, and I have to manually click the go button on the right.
Disabling all my plugins didn't make any difference.

That issue can be caused by the AVG Safe Search extension.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I no longer have an address bar after updating firefox???

After I updated firefox a few weeks ago, I don't have an address bar anymore.

If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
* If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
* If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

Autocompletion no longer works in address bar

The autcompletion works only with addresses I visited several weeks ago. For instance, when I type 'f', Facebook will be suggested.
But it does not work with any newer address, since about two weeks.
What can I do to recover this helpful function?
Thanks for helping!

Make sure that the Location Bar is not set to "Nothing": Tools > Options > Privacy > Location Bar: When using the location bar, suggest: History, Bookmarks, History and Bookmarks
Make sure that you keep history.<br />
You can look at these prefs on the about:config page.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.history_expire_days (180)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.history_expire_days_min (90)
This can also be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

My enter key doesn't work in the address bar so I can't manually enter URLs

This is actually on my wife's computer but, apparently she recently upgraded to 3.6.13 and now the enter key doesn't work in the address bar. I can enter a URL but can never go to it because the enter key is totally non functional in the address bar. Chrome works fine and other apps work fine. The enter key works here in this text box and in the search area but not in the address bar. Weird huh!

In my Windows 7 64, my Java was update, but dissabling AVG search and restarting the problem was solved
Thanks a lot

Enter key does not work anymore in address bar after FF update

After the update the Enter key does not work anymore. Neither when I type the url directly, nor when I select it from the history.
In short FF has become unusable. Now I need to install and use a less crappy browser. Extremely sloppy, amateuristic update.

see if this is helpful : go to Tool > Options > Advanced > General tab > Browsing and '''Uncheck''': "Use hardware acceleration when available" .

RETURN/ENTER and SHIFT keys no longer work, and my number keys only work as numbers - no longer do they serve as exclamation points or dollar signs etc.

After downloading OS X Yosemite my RETURN/ENTER and SHIFT keys no longer work, and my number keys only work as numbers - no longer do they serve as exclamation points or dollar signs etc. PLEASE HELP

Does this bad behavior persist when logging in as a different user, e.g., Guest? Does it persist when starting up in Safe Mode?

The Enter Key does not work in the location bar; I have to manually select the "Go To" icon since upgrading to Version 10.

I just upgraded to Firefox 10. When I manually enter a URL into the location bar, the "Go To" arrow does not have focus, so the Enter Key will not work. I have to manually select the "Go To" arrow to navigate. Any suggestions?

This could be the AVG safe search extension. If you have that installed, try disabling it. Instructions here: [[Using extensions with Firefox#w_how-to-disable-or-remove-extensions]]

Control key no longer works after update.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software -- potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions -- they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are four lines of text in monospaced type, which are UNIX shell commands. They’re harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of running these commands, search this site for other discussions in which they’ve been used without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap in your browser, but each one is really just a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
To begin, launch the Terminal application; e.g., by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search.
Step 1
Copy or drag -- do not type -- the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
kextstat -kl | awk ' !/apple/ { print $6 $7 } '
Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.)
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|com\.vix|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
Step 3
launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
Step 4
ls -1A {,/}Library/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Sta}* 2> /dev/null
Important: If you synchronize with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, change it to something like “[email protected]” before posting.
Remember, this is all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer -- no typing, except your password.
You can then quit Terminal.
