Entering an keyword in the adressbar leads to google and not to the website as in the older version; how can I change this?
''Duplicate post, continue here - [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/806111]''
When I enter any keyword in the adress bar, only the google search enginge opens instead of leading direct to the desired website. In the older FF version it always lead to the website directly.
How can I change this?
Many Thanks!
The change between Firefox 3.6.* and Firefox 4 is how location bar search works. In Firefox 3.6 it uses Google "Browse by name" search. With the browse by name search, it performs a Google search and if there is a clear match it will take you to the site, otherwise it shows the Google search result. With Firefox 4 it just performs a Google search if you type something which is not recognised as a URL.
To get the Firefox 3.6 behaviour on Firefox 4 you need to change a hidden preference.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''keyword.URL''', double-click on it and change its value to the link shown below
[http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q= http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=]
If you prefer, you can also do this by installing the Browse by Name extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/browse-by-name

I have an original iPad with the latest software. When I send an email, the keyboard opens with halk on the right side and halk of the left across the body of the email. How can I change this?
Tap and hold on the Keyboard key at the bottom right side of the right portion of the keyboard. You can use the Dock and Merge option from the menu.
Alternatively you can drag the keyboard down and move slightly left, to get it to merge. -

somehow an additonal icloud account has been set up on my iphone the problem is it ahs become the adminatrative account so i cant just delaet it how do i change the main account?
Are you confirming your POP account is selected as the sending email account before the message is sent?
And regardless if the email is a new email or is replying to or forwarding an email received by the POP account and cofirming the POP acconut is selected as the sending email account, the message is sent by the Gmail account?
All message sent by the POP account are sent by the Gmail account?
If so, delete the Gmail account from your iPad and test if a message sent with your POP account which will be the only email account available with the iPad's Mail app is recieved from your POP account/address.
If not, something else is wrong or on play that has nothing to do with the iPad. -
I am running windows xp and firefox 2.0 and when ever I go to upgrade to any version of firefox my book marks will quadruple and I have no idea as to why I have even tried to move my saved book marks onto a disk and it still will do the same thing. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. cw
I went into the profile folder and found these files but it will not allow you to delete them so now what do you do. I am wondering if I go in and search the hard drive and delete everything that has to do with bookmarks then try to down load the up grade and then load my book marks from a disk would that work? cw

I then have to minimize this stupid and possibly the worst version of firefox to get back to my previous programs or pages.This version makes IE shine!
I had this problem as well. Depending on the OS you are running I had found the easiest way to solve this problem is just to goto a previous restore point on your pc. Hope this solves your problem as it did mine!

When I open a document in my GoDaddy Mail that I access through Firefox (Mozilla), I have to open it; then make it small; then enlarge it before I can scroll down. Is there a way to change that? My computer is the HP Envy. Thanks much!
Hi LuckyLady,
Thank you for your question I understand that you have to make the text smaller and then zoom in to make it larger before the web page allows you to scroll.
The scrolling preferences are in the Options Menu. However I also noticed that you are in an older version of Firefox. Please update to the latest version to see if the issue has been fixed in the newer version. [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
Please post back with your results, it may help other users. -

When I downloaded the most recent software update the location services Icon showed up even thought I was not running any programs. Is this something new and is it going to drain my battery? This was not happening before the download. I am told I have to just turn off the location services biut I do use them on a daily basis and it seems to be a pain to have to shut if off everytime. Does anyone know how to fix this or am I just screwed until I upgrade the phone?
Hi Avahhava,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
As a first step, I would suggest restarting and/or resetting the iPhone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If you have tried those two things, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:

Using Firefox 10.0.1
Hi michaelphelan,
Have you gone to ''Tools > Options > Applications'' to see if you have told Firefox to do that as default?
You'll also need to have a PDF add-on for it to work. I'd suggest you look at:
* [[Options window - Applications panel]]
* [[Opening PDF files within Firefox]]
Hopefully this helps! -
