How do I disable the Bing search preview in Firefox?

How do I disable the Bing search preview feature? This feature is similar to the Google search page preview feature for which I have found remedy.

Thanks. I have that unchecked. I'm speaking of when you slide the cursor to the right of a search "hit", an arrow appears along with a bit more detailed text box of the corresponding hit. Seems like the google version was disabled in the [about:config] settings.

  • I just installed Firefox 5. How can I remove the Bing search from the address bar? I don't want to see Bing at all.

    I just installed Firefox 5. How can I remove the Bing search from the address bar. I don't want to see Bing at all. I tired the Firefox options, right-clicking on the search field and the toolbar selection drop-down but could not find a way to get rid of that unwanted search window.

    *'''at the bottom of firefox''' there is a weird looking greenish circle with a lightning bolt in it*
    1. click it and hover over to '''PREFERENCES'''.
    2. click the second circle that say's '''BING.'''
    3. '''Un-check''' both boxes.
    4. you're done :)
    Note: it's not going to show the google symbol encrypt when you open a new tab it's just going to automatically use google as a search engine.

  • How do I disable the "Quick Search" feature?

    I don't need or want the Quick Search function on Firefox. Simply deleting the Quick Search bookmarks folder doesn't get rid of it because it automatically reappears as soon as I restart Firefox. How do I disable this feature altogether?

    Here's what worked for me.
    Right click in the toolbar area to get the toolbar customization menu. That is, right click just to the right of the "Help" button on the Menu Bar.
    You'll see:
    Menu Bar,
    Navigation Toolbar,
    Bookmarks Toolbar
    These three may or may not have check marks, but you want to click on the fourth item, below the line, "customize".
    Left click the customize button and the "customize toolbar" window appears. Click and hold the "quick search" and drag it into the customize window and release. Quick search should settle itself into the customize toolbar window, patiently waiting if you ever decide you might want it again. : )

  • How can i disable the ~3 search "guesses" in the location bar, above the suggestions from my history?

    In the new version of Firefox, when I start typing something to the address bar, instead of showing suggestions from my history, it shows ~3 "popular search strings", as in Google search bar (for example if i type 'a', it shows aol, aol mail and amazon). I find this feature very irritating, is there a way I can disable the seach guesses, so I can browse in my history pages like before?
    Thanks!

    hello mreti88, this isn't a feature that is built into firefox - likely one of your installed addons is causing this: [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]

  • How i can disable the 'about:newtab' page on Firefox 9 a1 (UX)?

    I want to disable the 'about:newtab' page when I open a new tab, How i can do it?

    That doesn't look like it's related to the subject of this thread.
    BTW: Firefox 12+ versions have a browser.newtabpage.enabled pref to disable the about:newtab page.<br />
    The default of that pref in Firefox 12 (currently Beta) is false and is true in Firefox 13 (currently Aurora).

  • How do I disable the plug-in checker at Firefox (3.6) startup?

    There was a previous thread on this topic, but it was closed before it was answered. Even though I have an older version of Firefox, Mozilla has changed it so as to start a plug-in check screen every time I open Firefox. It is really annoying, since all my plug-ins are up to date, and Firefox starts with the update tab instead of my home page tab. Please tell me how to disable this!!!!

    Madperson, I'd be perfectly happy with Mozilla not supporting version 3.6 if they would actually leave their fingers off it. This plug-in checker screen on startup just started a couple of weeks ago, long after they supposedly ceased supporting it. One reason I don't want to switch is that some of my add-ons don't work with the newer versions of Firefox (which, unfortunately, we have on our other home computer). Whatever my reasons, Mozilla should not be purposely trying to make things more difficult.
    And james, no it's not a compatibility checker, the one that shows up every time a new version is downloaded and installed. It's a screen (evidently not pushed onto your firefox) that lists all plug-ins (like Java) and whether or not they've been updated to the latest version. Once, OK, but it happens everytime I start (even though everything is updated). How would you like it if you expected your home screen and every time you got, say, a knitting site (or pick something else that might be more irrelevant) that you had to close before you could start to work?

  • How do I disable the MP3Tube tool bar when Firefox opens? I have already unchecked it in the views menu, under toolbar. It disappears when I do that, but comes back every time I reopen Firefox.

    When I log on to Firefox, the home page displays a tool bar called "MP3 Tube" powered by Yahoo. I would like to remove that toolbar permanently from my start up page. I have tried to uncheck it in the View menu under Toolbars, but it reappears every time I log off and log back on to Firefox.

    You're welcome

  • How do I disable the automatic google search in Safari

    How do I disable the automatic google search mechanism in Safari 6.0.
    When I type a url (or modify an existing one) if Safari doesn't understand/like what I type it does a Google (or whatever) search automatically.
    If I have misspelled something, or made a typo, I want to know about it -- not have some twit program tell me what it thinks I wanted to know.
    This is the same problem which exists for ISPs (and I realize that Apple is trying to grab the advertising dollars THEY get when you type in a bad URL).
    I simply want to be able to turn OFF this "feature."
    I also note that with this change it is no longer possible to select any search engine BUT Google. Annothe "feature" which I find utterly descriminating. There are many times when I want to see the results from different search engines -- as they all return different results, probably 90+% of the time.

    There's not really a way to disable that feature, apple decided it would be easier for customers to have the address bar and google search bar all in one.

  • How do I disable the webpage preview that pops up when I hover my mouse over a tab?

    I don't know why this started today, but it is driving me nuts!
    I was surfing the net, when all of a sudden I noticed that whenever I hovered my mouse over one of my tabs, a (poorly rendered) preview of the webpage popped up from my mouse. I really do not need this feature. I don't need to have a mini-webpage preview of another tab.
    Please, how do I disable this feature?
    *note: I have disabled all my add-ons, and still nothing. I disabled my hardware acceleration, and still nothing. Please!

    I've never noticed that. Do these old threads shed any light?

  • Disabling the default search when searching for master Agreements

    Hello Experts
    I am relatively new to SAP e sourcing ,we are working on 5.1 system.
    We have a query , Contract management->Agreements->Search master agreements and Sub agreements.
    This query takes a lot of time for execution.
    When user selects this option , it runs this query and then displays a screen with all the filters and search results at the bottom.
    I want to ensure that this query is not run by default, so that when user selects this option , the page only displays the selection criteria , users can specify the filter values and hit on search.
    Can anyone please help me on how can we disable the default execution of query everytime "Search master agreements and Sub agreements " is selected from the dropdown.
    is there any option within the query itself or do we need any script for doing this.
    Regards
    Vikas

    Hello Vikas,
    This should be the general approach.
    1) Write a new query that has the functionality you desire. In your case you can duplicate the existing query and make one of the filters mandatory. This will ensure that the query does not get executed by default. Save this new query in the system.
    2) Identify the corresponding query group. In your case it is FCI-ContractBuyList.
    3) In this query group, find the entry for 'Search Master Agreements and Agreements' query and check 'Remove Query from Selection List'.
    4)Add your new query in this query group and check the 'Include in SRM Navigation' checkbox. Click Save.
    Let us know if this works.
    Thanks

  • How to I remove the Bing Drop Down Banner on MSN Homepage

    How do we remove the Bing drop down banner search bar from MSN. We are running Windows Vista and Firefox 4.

    Install Firefox and the Add on called Ad Block Plus, subscribe to the "Easy List" (almost automatic)
    When the image appears again, right click on it and there will be a Ad Block Plus menu option which you then can block the image server.
    Ad Block Plus is wonderful at blocking all sorts of image servers

  • How do I set the desired search enging when I open a new browsing window?

    When I open a new browser window, I used to get the Bing search engine option but now only the Yahoo search engin is shown. How do I reset the system to show Bing when opening a new browser window? thanks.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you've got a custom timecode field somewhere in your production and/or asset metadata group(s), right? And I'm going to further guess that this timecode field has dashes in it like this --:--:--:--, right? If so, try this: Click the arrow next to the timecode field and adjust the timecode so that it has a number (it doesn't matter what the number is as long it's not dashes - "00:00:00:00" is fine). Then Save this asset, close it and then reopen it and see if the beeping madness has vanished. Then, to make this change permanent for all of your new assets, make sure to edit the default value of any custom timecode fields to put zeros (or some other numeric default value) into them when a new asset is generated. If the asset still beeps when you open it, check the other metadata groups in your set to see if there isn't another empty timecode field lurking in the shadows.
