Flashing marker does not appear in search box when starting Firefox

When I start Firefox the flashing marker does not appear in the search box. If I reload this sometimes sorts the problem

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions 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.

  • My aunt's Skype account does not appear in search ...

    My aunt created a Skype account for herself so that we could all do Skype calls with her when she is away.  I tried to add her to my Skype contact list today and her username does not appear in search results, when it used to, before.  I logged onto my dad's Skype account, which I created for him and she shows up as having him added to her contact list.  I then asked a friend to search for her on Skype and the username did not show up on her end either.  Could my aunt have possibly gotten rid of her Skype account?  Or is Skype having problems again?

    Hi again,
    Is your question raised here different from the one you asked here: http://community.skype.com/t5/Security-Privacy-Trust-and/Friend-s-Skype-account-deactivated/m-p/3773... ?

    Time machine makes whirring noise 24 hours a day. Orange light often flashes. Does not appear to be overheating. Can you help?

    First: Are you wearing/regularly checking your radiation badge?
    Second: What does the little Time Machine icon (in the menubar) say when you click on it?  Alternatively, what does Time Machine Preferences (in System Preferences) tell you is going on?

  • I can only get my bookmarks to appear in safe mode when starting firefox normally they do not appear

    # Question
    i can only get my bookmarks to appear in safe mode when starting firefox normally they do not appear

    Extensions can sometimes be the cause of problems. If the problem does not occur in Safe Mode, then you can disable your extensions one-by-one until you find out which one is causing the problem. See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

  • I have Firefox 36.0.4 and Adobe Flash 17 NPAPI but Flash Player does not appear in my plugins

    Thank you in advance for your help.
    I have a HP 6910p running Windows Vista Business, and updated Adobe Flash to 17 NPAPI, and Adobe Shockwave Player to 12.1 and I am running Firefox 36.0.4. Adobe Flash is completely missing from my plugins, but it does appear in my program manager. I can not play any video in Firefox at all. If I go to a video site like YouTube the screen freezes then this message appears - "Shockwave Flash may be busy or have stopped responding. You can stop the plugin now, or you can continue to see if the plugin will complete."
    I desperately need some help as I refuse to rely on the evil minions at Google by using Chrome which captures your every keystroke.
    I have checked and both Adobe Shockwave Player and Adobe Flash are installed correctly.
    Does anyone have a solution.

    The plugin uses the name "Shockwave Flash" which I do see in your "More System Details" so it must be set to either "Always Activate" or "Ask to Activate".
    This is some standard guidance that addresses the most common issues with the Flash Player plugin. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:
    (1) If you have any recorders/downloaders that interact with Flash media make sure they are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them temporarily.
    (2) Disable hardware acceleration in Firefox and in Flash
    (A) In Firefox, un-check the box here:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    That takes effect the next time you exit and start Firefox up again.
    (B) In Flash, right-click the media and choose Settings, then the first mini-tab and uncheck the box to use hardware acceleration. More information in this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
    (3) Disable protected mode (Windows Vista and higher)
    The protected mode feature of the Flash player plugin has security benefits, but seems to have compatibility issues on some systems. You can disable it by creating or editing a settings file. The following pages/posts provide different approaches for that:
    * Adobe support article under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
    * Manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/968190?page=5#answer-509209
    * Batch file to automate the manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/982093#answer-518078 (alternate version of Carm's batch file with a few changes by me: [https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=f7d304d92388737d&id=F7D304D92388737D!336&ithint=file,.bat&authkey=!AP2FXW2Y_3BXZyo])
    Flash needs to completely unload from memory (exiting and starting Firefox up again might help) before this takes effect.
    Any improvement?

    HI,
    On your Blackberry go to OPTIONS/ABOUT the OS version looks like 4.x.x.xxx.
    On your outlook are you running any connectors (business, hotmail etc) ?
    5. Close and open Blackberry Desktop Manager to perform the synchronization process again and Outlook will be in the list...
    Vista commands
    1. Right-Click on Command Prompt in Start Menu and choose Run as Administrator
    2. Navigate to C:\Program Files\Research in Motion\Blackberry\IS71 Connectors\MS Outlook Connector by typing: c:\> CD program      files\research in motion\blackberry\is71 connectors\ms outlook connector
    3. Then type in the command prompt, type: regsvr32 MsOutlookConnector.fil
    4. If the registration is successful, the following message displays:
    DllRegisterSErver in msoutlookconnector.fil succeeded.
    5. Close and open Blackberry Desktop Manager to perform the synchronization process again and Outlook will be in the list...
    If you receive the error message DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80070005 - you do not have admin rights. So, it's important that you run command prompt as admin. 
    Let me know about the device and the version of desktop software.

  • Flash drive does not appear in Finder or on desktop

    When I plug a flash drive into my iMac, it sometimes does not show up in Finder or on the desktop (or if it shows up when I plug it in, it disappears after awhile). As a result, I am unable to eject it properly, and when I physically disconnect it a message appears telling me I removed it improperly and may have corrupted my data. Another discussion thread said to go into Finder> Preferences and choose to show CDs, DVDs and iPods on the Desktop. I had already done this, so there must be another solution. Any help?

    launch *disk utility* (in applications > utilities). if DU can see the drive, try repairing it.
    perhaps reformatting the drive for Mac (make sure the partition map scheme of the USB drive is GUID or Apple Partition Map (APM) and the volume format is Mac OS extended (journaled)) will bring it back to its senses.
