Senthil

Get your Google Search field code and the follow the directions below for editing it into the html page of your choice!
The general directions are as follows ...
1. Decide where you want your search field and know exactly what dimensions you need. (you can take a screenshot (Apple-Shift-4) of the search field and then do a Get Info (Apple-i) on the resulting Picture file to see what the actual dimensions are)
2. Insert a text box onto your page and adjust its size to exactly your dimensions.
3. Type in some uniquely identifiable text like, "GOOGLESEARCHCODE" without changing the font or anything else...just type it in.
4. Publish your page with iWeb.
5. Find the html file associated with your published page (either on your iDisk or in a folder depending on how you published) and open it in any text editor (like Microsoft Word, or Textedit, or anything).
6. Scroll through the html file and locate your placeholder text, e.g. "GOOGLESEARCHCODE".
7. Replace the placeholder text with your Google Search html code and publish your page.
That's it. You should see your Google Search field show up where you placed the text box.
If any of this information is useful to you, please do me a favor and mark my reply as "solved" or "helpful" using the little buttons that you see in the title bar of this reply. I would appreciate it immensely. Thank you.

WHO IS PROGRAMMING THIS JUNK ANYHOW?????

Hello,
Sounds like a third party installation has hijacked your search bar. If you find suspicious looking extensions in your add-ons page, can you try the following steps?
# Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and choose Add-ons.
# In the Add-ons Manager tab, select the Extensions panel.
# Select the toolbar you wish to remove.
# Click the Remove button.
# Click "Restart now" if it pops up. Your tabs will be saved and restored after the restart.
After Firefox restarts, install the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/ Search Reset Tool]. This will remove the rest of the traces of this program from your Firefox.
For further information, please read [[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]].
If the above doesn't work, try running some anti-malware scans:

Advanced search optioncolumn for google search lost in Firefox 10

On upgrading to Firefox 10 the advanced google search option column which provides options to restrict google search results by date has disappeared in Firefox 10. Now I have to use the old approach of clicking advanced search, then date and then the time period I'm interested in. This doesn't happen in IE9 or Chrome.

I am not entirely certain what you are seeing, but it is possibly more likely it is an option you have changed with Google yourself. Possibly you need to ensure cookies are enabled for the google site.
Are you seeing this problem when you go to a Google Website by using a bookmark or entering an address into the location bar, or are you having a problem with the searchbar ?
Maybe if you attach a screenshot of the IE9 and Firefox Google search screens it will help others understand what you are seeing.

Anna browser - Google search missing

Prior to Anna I regularly used the Google search window sst the foot of the browser window. With Anna installed I could not find the search window and had to revert to visiting the Google site. Which is a complete pain and a backward step.
However I found that removing Swype while testing the fix for 'no split screen' had the added benefit of bringing back the Google search option, now accessed by clicking into the address bar.
The cause of the problem appears to be that the swype window fills the while screen and doesn't allow the search pane to drop down.
What a pain. How can nokia be alerted to this bug to allow them to update Swype?

ummm where does one get this swype update? cuz I checked Nokia store and im running the latest they have available...

How can I default Firefox to open Google's "past year" search option every time?

Hp 8510W "workstation" laptop.<br />
Winxppro32<br />
Firefox 17.0<br />
No other OS installed.<br />
WISH LIST...
...to set Google's default date range to "past year" under ALL circumstance. Open from desktop, open in newtab, and default to "past year" when opening a second time from Google's top toolbar.
I'm 2/3 there. That last one has me stumped.
There might be a more elegant overall fix to this problem. A single plugin perhaps. If anyone is aware of such please let me/us know. There appear to be many complex regedit and recoding suggestions, but I cannot/will-not go that deep into this just to fix this eminently simple shortcoming of Firefox/Google.
I tried the Google forums to no avail. Google, and it's forum members, just flat out do not have anything to offer here. The simplest remedy ought to be on their end but unfortunately it does not appear to be at all forthcoming.
So I got halfway there via re-setting the home page in Firefox's Tools...Options...General...
...Home Page: https://www.google.com/webhp?tbs=qdr:y
This defaults Google's date range to "past year" every time Google is opened from Firefox's desktop icon. 'y' can be changed to 'w' 'm' etc for week, month, etc. Default to year just works for 90 percent of my own searches.
Further, I pasted the same URL into Firefox's about:config values line for...
browser.newtab.url; https://www.google.com/webhp?tbs=qdr:y
This enables the same "past year" defaulted Google home page to open with every new tab. That may not be for everyone, but that's my preference as well.
If I decide I need a shorter or deeper date range I can still drop down the box and choose it to override the default.... same as before..... it's just that the new default is "past year" instead of "anytime". All is good, almost.
===================
Like I said, that gets me 2/3 to my goal. The limitation I've discovered is that when opening any subsequent search via the present Google page's toolbar for
Images
Maps
Play
YouTube
News
Gmail
Drive
Calendar
More
... and then returning to "search" on that same bar, Google opens in it's default "anytime" date range.
So just for the sake of eliminating the obvious I went back into about:config. I did a "Search" for "Google" and found six new likely candidates for resetting the value from Google to.....
https://www.google.com/webhp?tbs=qdr:y
These were....in order of likelihood .....
browser.search.defaultenginename;<br />
https://www.google.com/webhp?tbs=qdr:y
browser.search.order.1;<br />
https://www.google.com/webhp?tbs=qdr:y
browser.startup.homepage;<br />
https://www.google.com/webhp?tbs=qdr:y
browser.contentHandlers.types.0.title;<br />
https://www.google.com/webhp?tbs=qdr:y
browser.contentHandlers.types.0.uri;<br />
https://www.google.com/webhp?tbs=qdr:y
browser.safebrowsing.provider.0.name;<br />
https://www.google.com/webhp?tbs=qdr:y
I went back and navigated to a new Google home page by opening it from the desktop and then navigating to "images" and then back again to "search" and discovered, to my dismay, that it still opened the Google search page with "anytime" defaulted.
Soooooo.... can anyone guide me over this last hurdle?

You can create a searchplugins folder in the Firefox Profile Folder and copy the google.xml file from that same folder in the Firefox program folder to that folder and rename the file to something like google-year.xml "Google (Year)".
This is better then to edit the original files
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder
You need to open the file in a plain text editor and change the shortname and description and add (Year) like "Google (Year)"<br />
Then you need to extend the Param line and append the code to add the tbs=qdr:y param.<br />
You should do this in all three sections (suggestion, keyword search, context search).
<pre><nowiki><Param name="tbs" value="qdr:y"/></nowiki></pre>
Then you should see an extra search engine in you click the search engine icon on the location bar that shows the results from the past year.
Make a backup copy of the file, so you can easily restore this file if you ever need a new profile.

How do I get an iWeb site to show up on a google search?

How do I get an iWeb site to show up on a google search?

How soon will the GA page indicate that the code has been added and tracking started? I added the code to the my Demo and Tutorial Contents pages and GA still indicates that tracking hasn't been installed.
I am using the full url to the analytics.js file in the HTML snippet:
newScript.src = 'http://web.me.com/toad.hall/js/demoanalytics.js';
The file shows up in the Activity window. I've done the same for the contents page of my tutorial site with the same results. The two sites are Tutorials and Demo.
Any suggestions?

Iweb site working great but blog not showing in Google Search

Not sure how to get my iweb blog to show up in Google searches. I am using iweb seo tool, and all my other pages on the site are searchable on Google, but the blog entries are not. It's been a month or more. Is this something that's happening on the blog pages only because I"m using my ftp and not publishing through mobileme? Not necessary that I have comments, but I would like the blog entries to be searchable. Thanks!

iWeb SEO Tool allows you to add the title tag and meta descritption for the Google entry...

To get the spiders to this info you need to give them a sitemap with all the URLs to crawl. Blog HTML files are buried in a sub folder so you need to provide the path.

Several problems continuous since first installing Firefox. Personal google search settings don't save; remember me options on web sites like Facebook aren't remembered; Youtube and Flixy videos don't play despite removing/reinstalling/upgrading Firefox several times; upgraded the latest flash plugin today, but no difference, symptoms are black play box with youtube and white box with Flixy. Disbale AV and antimalware makes no difference either.

I have a new problem with secondary web pages opening up without any action on my part other than simply moving the mouse pointer across the screen.

Disappearance !! of the 3 search options for Google (French / Belgium / web) in the opening page. There is only one possibility. Big disadvantage!

I have changed no options in my browser but in recent days, my home page Firefox does not display the three usual options of Google search (ie: French / Belgium / web). There remains only one possibility which is undoubtedly the French option.
It is a great drawback that prevents the target areas of research!
The same problem arises with other computers in my work. How is this possible?

Can no longer enter data in the address bar {url Bar}, it correctly follows data from google search bar. It was a 1 month old installation so not a lot of complications

I was not adding anything to Firefox. I Refused tool bars embedded in several application installs on this new computer. Was working fine. Then had a problem with Google search, restored default values and re-tooled Firefox. At this point all worked fine. Then my url, address bar changed color to the same color as the program shell, a grey brown as opposed to the white it was before. With the change in color it no longer allows me to change the data showing in the bar. I can not delete or add data. I used to add a url and navigate to the domain. Now I can not

Greetings,
TY for the reply, the information was enlightening to be sure. I never knew safe mode was an option with Firefox. I have so many tasks running that I didn't want to shut things down. What I did is turn off some of the last plug-ins I installed. That did not fix the problem at least in the first look. What happened next was very interesting none the less. I had a moment of mouse spastic wrist syndrome and accidentally moved a tab in such a way that it opened in a new window. The URL bar was white and editable. So I moved all my tabs to the new window and everything works as it should. I have restarted Firefox this morning and it came back with the bar editable and I am speechless to understand what I may have done to correct the problem if anything ??

Why do google search results reset to match the search bar terms when i use the back button?

Since the update to FF 23, the list of Google search results clears and the on-page search box is reset to match the address bar search box when I hit the back button to re-view the results list after checking a result.
To see this issue for yourself, set your search provider to Google and make sure Instant is on. Type a search term into the search bar and press enter. A google page appears with your results list. Now, change your search terms or conduct a new search directly from the google page (without using the FF search bar). Click on the first result in the search list, then click the back button to return to the search results so you can check a differest result. As FF goes back to the google page, it will reset the on-page search box to match the FF search bar (although you were no longer on this search) and all search results will disappear, replaced by the message "Press enter to search". Pressing enter reconducts your old search, not the one you were on.
This is incredibly maddening since searching for something requires frequent use of the back button to check through the list of search results, and then frequently trying the search again with slightly different terms. Although it sounds like a Google issue, it did not occur on the old firefox and has me wanting to revert. I tried to revert to the old search function via the "keyword search" addon, but this did not fix my issue. Is there a way to force FF to go back to the actual google search page I was just on instead of conducting a new google search from the FF search box when I hit the back button?

In Firefox 23 versions and later the keyword.URL pref is no longer supported and it is no longer possible to specify the search engine for the location bar via the keyword.URL pref.<br />
The search engine that is used on the location bar and on the about:home page is the search engine that is selected in the search Bar on the Navigation Toolbar.<br />
Current Firefox versions do not update the about:home home page until you refresh the page (future versions will do this automatically without a refresh) and that is what happens if you use the Back key.
You can install the Keyword Search extension to specify with search engine to use for the location bar and which search engine to use for the about:home page via the Options/Preferences windows of this extension, accessible via the about:addons page.

How to type a URL if Google search bar removed for privacy

Because it appears that in Safari it is impossible to remove the Google Search Bar that's off to the right at the top without also removing the now connected URL Location bar to its left, I removed both. I had noticed that when I did this in Camino, I could still go to a web page by clicking Command L for Open Location (found in the File dropdown menu of most browsers).
But in Safari just now, when I remove the Google search bar that Apple has hard coded to be inseparable from the Location bar to its left, I find I cannot use the File / Open Location command (which I mentioned is Command key - L) and therefore -- is my browser useless if I do not want to document my travels on the world wide web with Google's databases by having the Search Bar up?
In other words is it not possible to enter a URL into Safari in a blank and open the URL Location if you remove the Google Search Bar?
Is the only way to get to a webpage after removing that item to use one's old bookmarks to get to a page?
Or is this a bug and is my "Command key - L" (Open Location command) supposed to be working? I also started to test this with Firefox but it appears my Firefox browser does not have this problem so my Open Location bar remains even if I remove a search bar and the removable search bar it does have is not tied to google in particular, I don't think, in Firefox even if I remove the search bar though I never use a search bar anyway because I don't care to go to any search engine unless I type their URL into my Location bar personally. That's just my preference because I don't trust having third party search bars forced into the browser design.
Is this really true as it appears that there's no way to open a Location in Safari without having the annoying Search Bar up? Is Open Location disabled without the Google Search bar?
If so, it looks like that, of my several browsers, the only one that won't allow me to Open Location (go to a webpage that I type into a Location bar) if I remove the Google Search bar is Safari. I am finding I can successfully extricate myself from Google search if I use Opera, Camino, and Firefox and select Remove after right clicking on the search bar.
Why would the industry be trying to force this Google data mining and surf habits info collection on people? Evidently because Apple would rather take the money from google for forcing google into our browser than protect its customers privacy? I hope this disease does not spread to the other browsers left for me to use. What a monopoly google is building. Too bad antitrust litigation is dead.
(If this is true, this is depressing to me because I had set Safari to be my primary browser. But it seems the least secure browser anyway (compared to using NoScript with Firefox) so I guess I'll have to avoid using it (except on those few pages that won't work without it) until Apple starts taking people's privacy a little more seriously instead of sneaking in more and more features that force us into an unholy logging relationship with Big Brother Google. And I'm disappointed in this development also because I used to like Google before I realized its lawyers were so dedicated to writing privacy policies that are as vague as possible and as unprotective of privacy as possible. I would like to use Google more if they would just stop taking 100 miles when a person gives an inch by using their search engine. I get nervous any time I have to use anything connected with them as things stand and I really wish that would improve and that google will improve its privacy policies rather than finding new ways to log every movement a person makes on the Web.)

The question posed in this thread was:
How do I type a URL such as "www.apple.com" etc. into a blank in SAFARI to go to the URL if I remove the Google search bar?
I cannot seem to get Open Location (Command - L) to function if I remove the Google search bar. Removing the Google Search Bar seems to also remove the location bar to type into. This is not the case in Opera, Camino, or Firefox, so I am wondering if my Safari is just corrupted. If the only way to have the option of Open Location (Command L) is to put the Google Search bar back in, which means the two are connected, does that mean that Google is able to record all url's typed in the Location bar even if you don't use the Search bar? I believe the story used to be that any time you type a url into a google search engine, google records your IP and search; so I'm wondering if Apple has now set up the Location bar in Safari in a deal with Google to let Google track every URL you type into the location bar if it is the case that the Location bar is inseparable from Google Search.

Occasionally, when I try to do a Google search, numerous "opening search" pop-up windows appear. I cannot continue typing in my search until I've closed all of these pop-up windows. How do I stop them from EVER popping up again?!

They are small pop-up windows. When I start entering in keywords to search, ever so often, these things pop-up and not just one. Many of them. Popping one upon another upon another upon another. I cannot enter anything new into the Google search box until I have closed all of these windows. And, commonly, numerous ones of them will pop up again when I enter in the next letter in my search.
This is what it says in the pop-up box:
Along the top it says in the light blue margin "Opening search"
Under the above and in a white box it says:
"You have chosen to open
[a Windows symbol] search
which is a: application/json
from: https//www.google.com
Then on the outline of an inner box, it reads "What should Firefox do with this file?" and it gives the following options:
Open with ["Browse" button]
DownThemAll!
Save File [This one is checked as the default]
Then a check-off box with the text next to it: "Do this automatically for files like this from now on.
Under that is an "OK" button that is gray and cannot be checked and a "Cancel" button that can be. I have never done either but used the "X" in the upper right corner of the box to close out this window.
Now I see I have limited options for "This happened" for frequency. It isn't every time Firefox is opened but it is FAR more frequent than "A few times a week". More like several times a day.

First direct link in google search causes "Internet Explorer blocked this site from downloading"

I've disabled both the Adobe Reader Add-on and the Adobe PDF Link Helper to force IE 8 to open PDF's outside of the browser i.e in the stand alone reader application.
After doing this I did some testing, a google search for "test pdf" produces numerous direct links to pdf files. If i click any of them it causes IE to display the message bar "Internet Explorer blocked this from downloading files to your computer, click her for options.." When I click on the message bar, it appears to download the file , then nothing happens. Next time I click the link it opens in the stand alone reader just fine and so do all PDF files, until the browser is restarted or a new tab is started.
This only seems to happen in IE8. IE9 doesn't have the problem.
If I open a web page that has a link to a PDF that always work.
Help? I can't roll this out to prod. Users will get very confused...

You actually trashed the whole Internet Preferences Folder including all your preferences still in there?
Actually, you were suppose to just trash the Internet Preference file/document which is inside the folder.
See if updating to the latest & last version of IE for Mac will help.
Internet Explorer (Classic) 5.1.7
Internet Explorer 5.1.7
Internet Explorer v5.1.7
"WARNING:" Microsoft ended support for Internet Explorer for Mac on December 31st, 2005, and is not providing any further security or performance updates.
Accordingly, as of January 31st, 2006, Internet Explorer for the Mac is no longer available for download from Microsoft.
Or, you can try the following w/your older version of IE:
Once a week Go into the system folder>preferences folder & trash the following preferences:
finder
ASLM
PPC Registration Database
Cache.waf-found inside the MS Internet Cache folder
MRJ Cache folder-a new one will be recreated.(If not found go to System folder>Application Support>MRJ Cache folder-trash all you find inside-(DO NOT TRASH THIS FOLDER)
Download Cache-found inside Explorer Folder
Downloads.html-found inside Explorer Folder
History.html-found inside Explorer Folder
Rebuild your desktop w/extensions off. Use Techtool Lite or Trash*Desktop - may delete Finder comments to rebuild your desktop w/extensions off. Does a better job than manually & you avoid all the finger gymnatics. You just have to hold down the shift key to shut off extensions.
Restart to turn the extensions back on again & empty the trash.
Good luck!
