Help will not search for search term

CS6, Windows XP. When accessing online help for CS6 applications, InDesign for example, InDesign Help / Help and Tutorials screen comes up. There is a box, Adobe Community Help with space for a search term and magnifying glass icon and the icon of the application for which I want help.  When I type in the search term and click on the magnifying glass or hit Enter,  nothing happens. Help does not search for term in question. What am I missing?

  • Can't search for the term 'XML' in HTML-Help

    Hi!
    I work with RH8HTML (8.0.0.203), Windows Vista Business SP2 and IE 7.0.6002.18005.
    I've created some topics which include the term XML. When I create the HTML-Help, then search for the term XML, I am shown a message that says Help cannot search for that term. But when I create Web-Help, Help can search for it!
    I have checked the Stoplist and the List of ignored words, but XML is not listed.
    Does anybody have an explanation for this strange behaviour?
    Thanks for helping a help author!
    Kind regards,
    Kurt

    Hi all
    I just tested this in RoboHelp 8 and it was fine on my own system. The message Peter saw seems to be the typical "Click cancel to stop the search." I attempted to capture it on my own PC but it flashes by so quickly that it eludes me.
    Cheers... Rick

    What are you using to search? You should be able to search any drive in from the Finder. If you're having trouble, try "EasyFind" from the App Store (free). You can search any volumes with it.

  • Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab?

    Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab? When there was support for Google Toolbar, I was able to do this; now, whenever I want to search for something, I have to open a new tab to do it, and cut-and-paste my search into the search field in the new tab. I used to be able to highlight, drag, and drop something into the search field and have it automatically open in a new tab. This is enough for me to switch to Chrome . . .

    Set a preference to have searches from the Search Bar (upper right) automatically open all searches in a new tab
    #type '''about:config''' in the URL/Location/Address bar and press the Enter key
    #if you see a warning, accept it (promise to be careful)
    #Filter = '''browser.search.openintab'''
    #in the lower panel, double click the item (or right-click and choose "Toggle") to change the value to "true"
    #close the about:config tab and test
    #See:
    #*For help with opening/using about:config, also see: http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config
    #*Also see: http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config_entries (click on "Browser", scroll down to browser.search.openintab)

    About Google toolbar............
    Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox 5 and newer version. It is best to move on to other alternatives than to try any "hacks" to the toolbar that may or may not perform in the future. Future versions of Google toolbar will only work with IE7-9. Google Toolbar is not available on any other browser, even Google's own browser.

  • In version 3.x.x I used to be able to type search terms into the address bar and the page would load, similar to Google's "Feeling Lucky" button. Now it just brings up a Google search for the terms I typed in. How can I get this time saving feature back?

    In version 3.x.x I used to be able to type search terms into the address bar and the page would load, similar to Google's "Feeling Lucky" button. Now it just brings up a Google search for the terms I typed in. How can I get this time saving feature back?

    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

    Hi wolfsong.warrior,
    Reset your device: Press down on the Home and Wake/Sleep buttons at the same time and continue to hold them until the Silver Apple appears (no data will be lost). Once the Home screen comes back up, check to see if everything is working correctly now.

  • The enter button or tapping the keypad will not allow a search to occur after I type in a keyword????

    Firefox will not allow me to use the enter button or even tapping the key pad on the go/magnifying glass button in the search window. I can type in a few keywords in the google or yahoo keyword search window in the top right tool bar but it will not let me enter. It also will not let me search or enter on any website with a search window. I can't even type in a username/password to access my banking. This just occurred several days ago. This is a linux Acer 8gig netbook.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == A few days ago.

    This may or may not be the problem but clips need to be in a storyline, not just butted back to back, to apply transitions. Meaning if you lift clips form the main storyline and just have them back to back on the line above (but not in their own storyline) they will not allow effects to be applied. You need to either move them back to the main storyline, or create a new storyline containing the clips, and then apply the transition.

  • Lenovo U410 Urgent Help Will Not Turn On

    Hello,
    Firstly i would like to thank anyone reading this post and taking the time out of their day to try and help my problem.
    I have a Lenovo U410 Ultrabook i've had my Laptop for around 1-2 years now and i have kept it in a very good condition there have been no issues with it. About 1 Week ago i was using my laptop left my room for about 30 minutes to have a shower and upon returning i saw that my Laptop was not charging i unplugged the charger from the laptop and place it back in nothing happened. so i turned off my laptop and unplugged the charger from the wall socket. since then i have not been able to turn my laptop back on i have tried but the led's flash twice when i tried to turn it back on. i have changed the fuse in my charger about 3 times with new fuses all 3AMP required and there is no difference at first i thought it was a problem with the charger but now im thinking otherwise and i'm quite worried. After searching around the internet for a fix i have pressed the power button for 30 seconds and the leds blinked 3 times and after trying various methods to turn it back on it has not been succesful i have even uplugged the battery and plugged it back in after removing the back cover. i have no warranty left as it expired and i was not able to renew it. if you have had any experience with similiar problems or any suggestions i would be very interested to hear what you think the next step for me would be. i dont have much money to invest into this laptop but i am prepared to spend some money if need be.
    Thank you for reading my extremely long post,
    Your's faithfully

  • I purchased Adobe photoshop elements II and Adobe premiere elements II. They are both on one disc. My computer crasded and I had to reload Windows. I only have one serial number and it only works with photoshop II. The same serial number will not work for

    I purchased Adobe photoshop elements II and Adobe premiere elements II. They are both on one disc. My computer crasded and I had to reload Windows. I only have one serial number and it only works with photoshop II. The same serial number will not work for Premiere. I dont have any other serial numbers. What do I do???

    Static_Unit
    I am getting a bit concerned about what is happening in your situation. Yesterday you posted your question in at least two different forums, one of them being here in the Premiere Elements Forum.
    Don't Have Serial Number for Premiere, Only Photoshop?
    Wherever you posted, the reply was to contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat. It is the only one who can sort out this matter for you.
    In the thread cited above I offered to help you with the difficulties that you were having visualizing the Adobe Chat in its web page. I was waiting for your follow up on that in the above thread. Instead, I find your same question in a new Adobe Premiere Elements Forum thread this afternoon with no refer the prior threads or prior recommendations given you.
    I will also mention again...when you buy the Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements bundled in one packaging and with installation files for each on the same installation disc, each program has its own serial number. The Photoshop Elements serial number does not work for Premiere Elements and vice versa. The serial numbers are on labels on a box which houses the installation disc envelope(s). So, if you purchased both programs and found the Photoshop Elements serial number, then the Premiere Elements serial number should be in a label right underneath the label with the serial number for Photoshop Elements. I recall writing this in your yesterday's thread on this matter.
    The moderator will no doubt be along shortly to close or delete this thread. So, just in case, please bookmark your yesterday's thread cited above so that we can continue this communication which is trying to help you.
    Thanks.
