How do I get back my second search bar (box) using firefox?

After updating Java I lost one of my search-bars. I want to be able to search in the address bar (location bar) AND the search bar. I know that they've been combined on some of the updates. However; I want to have both and have tried multiple things to try to recover it as I've been able to keep it through firefox and other updates until my last Java update. I went back to restore before Java update and that did not bring it back. Thanks!

Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible:
*Firefox menu button > Options
*View > Toolbars (press F10 to display a hidden menu bar)
Open the Customize window to set which toolbar items to display:
*Firefox menu button > Options
*View > Toolbars (press F10 to display the menu bar)
*Right-click empty toolbar area
*check that "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
*If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
*if missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
*if you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up
You can check for problems with the localstore.rdf file.

    How do I get rid of myinfotopia? I am using Firefox

    hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by adware on your pc.
    please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc).
    <br>also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.
    <br>finally, run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

  • I accidentally removed my iPhone from manage devices in my iTunes account.  How do I get back on as a device to use my account?

    I accidentally removed my iPhone from manage devices in my iTunes account.  How do I get my iPhone 5s back on as a device to use my account?

    Hi jakefrombishop,
    If you changed that old ID to your current ID using Manage your Apple ID, try the following to see if it will accept your current password:
    1.     Go to Manage your Apple ID and sign on with your current Apple ID and password. EDIT the ID and change it to the old email address. This is temporary. Do NOT verify it, do NOT change the password: Apple - My Apple ID
    2.     Now on the iPhone, where it is asking for your password to turn off Find My iPhone, type in your current password
    3.     Go back to Manage your Apple ID and sign on with the old email address and your current password. EDIT the Apple ID back to your current email address. You may need to verify it again.
    Fingers crossed!

    Use Toolbar Layout (Customize) to open the Customize window and set which toolbar items to display.<br />
    *Firefox menu button > Options
    *View > Toolbars (press F10 to display the menu bar)
    You can try to move the (Google) search bar back to its position on the Navigation Toolbar.
    *if missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    *if you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar setup

  • How do i get rid of address/search bar in mountain lion?

    Is there a way to bring back the seperate Google search bar in Safari? I loved the simplicity of typing "apple" and clicking enter in the address bar and Safari would direct me to apple.com. Now it takes me to Google, creating and additional step in the process. Does anyone have a solution, other than having to type .com every time?

  • After automatically updating when I turned on the computer, Firefox erased all my History from the end of September until the update yesterday; how can I get back all the searches in my Show All History?

    When I opened Firefox and it automatically updated yesterday, all my search history from then back to the end of September was wiped clean from the "Show All History." I very much need that search history, which is essential for my research. I didn't bookmark it because I knew it would always be there. But it's not. Please help.

    Firefox tarballs from Mozilla Org use prefs within Firefox for updates. The "toggle" for not automatically updating - '''app.update.enabled''' and where to look for updates - '''app.update.url'''. The first needs to be '''''false''''' and the second could be a '''''null''''' string, do an update can't be found.
    ''I use both prefs to keep Firefox from updating by itself. I install each new version of Firefox as it is released, and keep the older versions around for reference purposes. Those prefs are the same since Firefox 1.5 came out.''
    The versions of Firefox that are part of an operating system installation usually are that OS's own build of Firefox, and don't use the same update setup as Mozilla uses, in most cases. I am not familiar with Cent OS, but Ubuntu and Debian look for Firefox updates and from their own program repository servers outside of Firefox - as with the tarballs from Mozilla.

  • HT4901 How do I get back the second reminder on iPad calendar?

    For appointments, I like to set one reminder for 2 days prior and2 hours prior to the event. I was able to do so until the past month or two. I really need to have both reminders. Does anyone know how to reset the ability to have a second alert? Thanks

    You can set multiple reminders in Calendar, are you sure you aren't mixing up Reminders and Calendar.

  • HT1518 how do we get back to normal writing and not using unicode?

    My laptop is writing in uni code and it won't go back to English someone please help its urgent!

    Are you using an external keyboard at all? If so, it sounds like it needs remapping. Go to
     > System Preferences > Keyboard to set it up.
    In any case, there should be a flag (national flag or some other icon) in the menubar, probably between the battery/power indicator and the volume icon. Click on it and select 'English'.
    You can set up a keyboard hotkey for this, if you look in
     > System Preferences > Language & Text | Input Sources
    on the right of the window you should see 'Input source shortcuts'. There should be a hotkey for
    'Select previous input source' and
    'Select next input source in the menu'
    If the second one is greyed out, click the 'Keyboard Shortcuts' button underneath and set it up as
    'option-command-spacebar'.
    Now use this hotkey to toggle through to English.

  • How do I get back images on pages when surfing using Safari?

    Hello All,
    Background:
    I downloaded an image management software that I forgot I purchased.
    I don't think that was the cause of the problem, but I figured I'd mention it.
    The program started to be annoying, so I closed it, and threw it in the garbage.
    1. What has happened is that I cannot see the small photos on a page.
    2. I cannot see the Insert IMage (camera icon) to insert photos, and when I tried to copy & paste, nothing happened.
    Everything worksw well when I use my Google Chrome Browser.
    Unfortunately, when I am in the Google Chrome Browser and migrate to the "Apple Support Communities", my compyutuer is "Pirated"
    by Apple Safari, and everthing goes blank (photos and what I described on this page - no icon for add image, no options for type (colour, etc.)
    Can someone help me - please!
    Thanks,
    (Mr.) Stacey B.
    Montreal

    Hello Once More.
    I think I figured out the solution to my own problem:
      Image # 1:  Problem with using Safari - no small photos appearing on Web Pages
    Image #2: No Problem Using Google Chrome - Small Photos Appear
    Image # 3: Why I couldn't add any photos or  modify writing (Safair Problem)
    Even when I used Google Chrome, Safari would Pirate the Browser Platform and replace Chrome.
    Image #4:  Somehow, when I was using Safari, and the top menu (developer), the images were "disabled". As a consequence, I couldnlt see any small images. What I did is to "enable images".
    That worked!
    Thanks to all who viewed this post, and I hope this might help someone in the future.

  • How can I get flash player to show full video using Firefox (23.0.1) on MAC (OSX 10.8.4)

    On Youtube and other sites, I only see the top left quadrant of the video.  I tried uninstalling and re-installing the latest flash player and that did not solve the problem.

    Actually, that was my fault - I saw "Tab" and thought of the full settings display and way I'd normally get to the proper place.  Anyway, I tried taing the number fo time you mentioned but it did not work. Pressing the Tab key 6 tims and pressing enter did get me to the right place. Pressing Tab once highlights the full box (note yellow outline in 1st pic below:
    From there, if I "press Enter again. Press Tab 5 (five) more times, press Enter and close the box." the box does not close and I get to:
    If, on the other hand, when I get to the Display page a press tab twice, it highlights the item I need to uncheck as shown below:
    If from there I Press enter, it does nto uncheck the box, which is what I think needs to be done. Neither does the space bar. And if I follow out the instructions from there I get to"
    So, I'm guesing we may have different items on the setting pages.  My version of flash is 11.8.800.94.

  • In an outgoing email message the "attach" document icon does not work in firefox. It does work when using internet explorer. How can I get the "attach" key to work when using firefox?

    Using firefox, if I am composing a new message in my hotmail account the "attachment" icon is not active, so nothing happens when I click on it in order to attach one of my word documents.
    The "attachment" icon is active when I am using hotmail and internet explorer.
