Firefox 4 map search not working

When I open the maps search on firefox 4 homepage and enter a location, firefox says loading but goes no further,
I can access the map of a location from the web search box by entering map followed by the location name.
How can I get the map search to work?

Thanks for your reply. I was testing those on my home Wifi (optimum ISP), as that is what I use most. I did test with my phone carrier's 4g also and did get slightly different results, but still does not fix the problem. Here are the differences:
======================
"woot":
* [Wifi] leads to www.woot.com.
* [4G] tries to go to http://woot/; leads to a "not found" page from my mobile carrier with search.
"word":
* [Wifi] leads to a "Domain Not Found" page from my home ISP with search.
* [4G] tries to go to http://word/; leads to a "not found" page from my mobile carrier with search.
" word ":
* [Wifi] leads to a "Domain Not Found" page from my home ISP with search.
* [4G] ignores spaces and tries to go to http://word/; leads to a "not found" page from my mobile carrier with search.
"word anotherword"
* [Wifi] leads to a Google search results page.
* [4G] leads to a Google search results page.
"amazon"
* [Wifi] leads to amazon.com.
* [4G] tries to go to http://amazon/; leads to a "not found" page from my mobile carrier with search.
"aw"
* [Wifi] leads to a Google search results page.
* [4G] leads to a Google search results page.
"it"
* [Wifi] leads to a Google search results page.
* [4G] leads to a Google search results page.
"go"
* [Wifi] leads to a "Domain Not Found" page from my home ISP with search.
* [4G] tries to go to http://go/; leads to a "not found" page from my mobile carrier with search.
======================
So weird! Can't even find much of a pattern minus that two words seem to do okay.
Furthermore, I just updated Firefox Android to version 24.0 which came out yesterday. Same exact results and the problem still persists.
I am using an HTC Amaze 4G from T-Mobile. Android version 4.0.3. All stock and unrooted.
Thank you again so much for your help!

Firefox for Android: Search not working.

I just got Firefox for Android yesterday and I've been having the problem of the address bar being very inconsistent and giving me very strange results.
The very first thing I typed into the app was the first word that came to mind as a long-time user of Firefox for Windows: "woot". The expectation was that it would open up google search for the term "woot". Instead, it lead me to some website at www.woot.com.
Afterwards, I tried several other terms and found the following results: (quotes not included in the search)
"word" lead to a "Domain Not Found" page from my ISP
" word " lead to the same as above.
"word anotherword" lead to a Google search results page.
"amazon" lead to amazon.com
"aw" lead to a Google search results page.
"it" lead to a Google search results page.
"go" lead to a "Domain Not Found" page from my ISP.
This all left me very dismayed, as typing in ANY of the above terms into my PC's Firefox's address bar as well as my old Opera Android browser's bars, would give me a Google search results page for the terms. Even when I search for "amazon", I expect to be given the option of searching for amazon rainforests instead of being forcibly taken directly to amazon.com.
So my main question is this: Is there any way to force Firefox for Android to use Google search *no matter what* is typed into the address bar?
I custom-fit a lot of the about:config settings for my FF on Windows to my liking, but have not been able to find a list of setting explanations for the Android version of FF. I am hoping that my problem can be fixed with some settings; and also if anyone has a list of them with explanations, I would highly appreciate a link to it.
Thank you.

TS1702 IOS 6.0.1 maps Search not working correctly

Previous version maps was able to search locations and find directions. After I upgraded to 6.0.1 now it is not able to find the same location. Nor is it able to find any direction from 2 places

I just got iPhone 4 (iOS 6.0.1) and I tried to Open Maps but its even didnt show me my current location, its just was grids and a circle which represents current location, no map just grids... and even its not loading local weather and App Store.

After installing iOS6, my Maps are not working at all, anything i search it says "result not found" even after placing a pin and selecting "Direction to here" i get the same result not found. Very disappointed with the new iOS

Have you run it in a debugger? That will show you exactly what is happening and why.

Contribution points display and search not working in Safari 5?

Hi all,
Are the contribution points display and SDN search not working for everyone else in Safari 5 or is it just me?
Chrome 5 and Firefox 3.6 (all on Mac OS X 10.6) seem to be working fine.
Thanks,
Ethan

The thread titles are no longer hyperlinked in the contributions overview and the quote chevron does not work either since yesterday.
Who was the beta tester and where are their test scripts?
A simple thread with a little bit of everything in it and a windiff against the before & after would detect these things?
Cheers,

Has anyone had a problem with the spotlight search not working sometimes?

Has anyone had a problem with their "spotlight search" not working? If I restart the phone it will work for a few days then not work again.

It's more likely the OP's router. I have a wifi only iPad 2, yet location services work just fine on my iPad. If I open maps, my location is found quite nicely. I have seen that some routers do not provide location services and I suspect the OP has such a router.

Re: Downgrading Oct 16, 2012 2:57 PM (in response to nbabbit2013)
I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums, but you can use Google to find information on how to install an older version of iOS on any iDevice.

Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

Search not working on Task Description

Hi,
I am facing a strange scenario with search not working on Task Description for a particular task item. This task item has around 18 versions of itself within it.
I tried replicating the same scenario in our Test environment with following changes in the task item description:
1. Copied the task list over to Test environment.
2. Deleted all the versions of this task and put a single line description as.
3. Initiated full crawl and search results with task description were
coming up fine.
4. Made few more versions : 5 Versions and again initiated full craw. Search results are fine.
5. Made few more versions this time and again a FULL crawl, but now NO results with this task description.
So, my question here is that is there any limit by MS for multiline text limit or version limit which prevents the task description from coming up in search results.
This task description as multiple line text with links to other lists/libraries and user names who created the versions in this task item. We are not using FAST search.

I found the answer elsewhere on the forum:
Somehow the main drive was added to the privacy list in Spotlight. Search is working fine now that I've removed it.

Archive folder missing from Mail & search not working

I've been having trouble getting the Archive mailbox to appear in Mail. What's worse, often the search function is broken, and Mail doesn't turn up any search results. I've found some ways to get the Archive folder to reappear, but these only seem to help temporarily. For instance, clicking on the gear at the bottom left and selecting "Get Account Info" then selecting the Archive folder causes it to reappear, but this is only temporary and it disappears after another restart or sometimes after an hour or two. The search not working is the worst, as it sometimes is working and sometimes isn't. I don't have any idea what's causing this, but I am at my wit's end because I NEED Mail to be firing on all cylinders.

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
What are your selections in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced for this Gmail account, if using IMAP, regarding keeping message for Offline use? The Mail search can only access the list of messages to search Subject, From, etc, but not the entire message unless copies of all messages are being kept on the computer. This would be true for any IMAP account, btw.
More info, please.

Mail search not working + Spotlight keeps indexing

I have an old problem that has resurfaced after creating a new user on my Mac. Mail search brings no results and Spotlight is constantly indexing - day in, day out. It never seems to get there. I tried turning my hard drive to private in Spotlight settings and then taking it out. Previously Spotlight seemed to get bogged down with external drives now it's stuck indexing my Mac.
Any advice? Is there a way I get unstick this?

I can't believe that Apple have STILL not sorted this out. I haven't created a new user (so it's nothing to do with that), but Mail.app won't find anything when searching "Entire Message" in the current Mailbox or in "All Mailboxes". This has been ongoing since Leopard was first released, and we are now up to 10.5.8 without this being fixed.

Input Parameter Mapping is not working in Sap HANA

Hi, We created on ANALYTICAL view(A) with Input Parameters, on top of Analytical view created one Calculation view(B) and mapped Calculation view input parameter with Analytical view input paramter and its working fine. Finally we created one more calculation view on top existing calculation view(B) and mapped with corresponding input parameters. Input parameter mapping is working fine in between A(analytical view) and --------> B (first Calc view) but input parameter mapping is not working properly in between B(first Calc View)-----------C(second Calc View). it is giving all data whatever is coming from Calc View B. Kindly help us to resolve this.
