How do I make Google my start page like I had before the update

before the latest update my start page automatically was the Google page which I really liked. Now Firefox 3.6 page comes up which I don't like. How do I go back to the original format? Thanks - Hans

See this article for some suggestions: [[Firefox has just updated tab shows each time you start Firefox]]

  • How can I make Mozilla Firefox Start Page use Google search instead of SearchCompletion search?

    I have just upgraded Firefox 9 to 10. I noticed when I fire up Firefox at the Start Page and enter a query at the search bar, the resulting pages are from SearchCompletion engine.
    How do I make Google search engine as the default engine at the Firefox Start Page ... like it has always been?
    Seems like one of those irritating changes that happens when upgrading versions...

    Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

    keep on getting double notification  from my default mail app, and gmail app, how do i make google my primary one? so that i dont have to get doulbe notifications  on both apps

    This is probably not the answer to all your questions, but I am sure it answers some.
    Unlike Word and InDesign, FrameMaker's anchored frames, which hold graphics, "hang" from their insertion points, typically at the end of the paragraph. An anchored frame that follows a paragraph is set to be below the line, the line being the last line in the paragraph. If you turn on View > Text Symbols, you will see a marker that indicates the point from which the anchored frame is hanging.
    If the anchored frame is taller than the available space, it is moved to the next page ALONG with that last line. If the paragraph style/tag has a widow/orphan lines number that is more than 1, then that number of lines are also moved to the next page, because the paragraph tag says to keep that many together, EVEN if there is space at the bottom of the previous page.
    So, you can set the widow/orphan lines number smaller OR as you have done put a blank line before the anchored frame, which now holds the marker for the anchored frame, and set its font size to 2 pt (the lowest FrameMaker allows) and its line height to zero. This is the standard workaround UNLESS you use the line above the anchored frame as the title/caption of a figure, which is also a typical way of dealing with FrameMaker's ways.
    To my knowledge, one cannot change the default of the checked cropped box. Maybe others know of some way to change this.
    There is no page break in FrameMaker, hence there is no symbol for it. In the paragraph designer for the paragraph, you set to Start of the paragraph to Top of page. Top of page is FrameMaker's equivalent to a page break. To "remove" a page break, set the Start of the paragraph to Anywhere.
    Since you are new to FrameMaker, I suggest reading throught the User Manual that comes with FrameMaker. You will likely find the answers to most of your questions there.
    Hope this helps,
    Van

  • How can I make google my real default search engine?

    Yes, I have set Google as my preferred search engine in Safari Preferences.
    But when I try to do things such as define a word, it uses Bing.
    Frankly, I do not care for Bing.
    How can I make google always be my search engine?
    Thanks

    Here you go Andy.
    I did learn some things while looking at it.

  • How about adding Gmail to Firefox start page?

    When you start http://www.google.com/firefox?client=firefox-a there is no Gmail; the only way for it to appear is if you are already logged-in. The "Books" shows up in the place of Gmail; see google.com. Please change it! I stopped using the Google Firefox start page because of it

    Sorry, Mozilla doesn't have control over what Google does with that Google / Firefox page. You can probably use iGoogle to add what you want to the page, but you'd have to be logged into iGoogle to see those changes when you start Firefox.

  • I want google as my search engine, not Bing. How do I make Google the default search engine in the "Search the Web" feature of the search bar; or, how do I remove the "Search the Web" feature of the search bar so that "Google" can be default?

    I want google as my search engine, not Bing. But no matter what I do in "Manage Search Engines," Firefox seems to reset to "Search the Web," which uses Bing.
    How do I make Google the default search engine in the "Search the Web" feature of the search bar; or, how do I remove the "Search the Web" feature of the search bar so that "Google" can be default? When I move "Search the Web" down and "Google" up, the search bar resets every time Firefox reloads.

    Sometime Bing is not located in the Add/Remove programs section of the control panel.
    6 Easy Steps to Remove Bing from Mozilla Firefox:
    1. Click on the "inverted triangle" located to the right of the orange Bing icon.
    2. Select the option "Manage Search Engines...". (A pop-up window will appear titled "Manage Search Engine List.)
    3. Select "Bing".
    4. Click the "Remove" button.
    5. Select the desired search engine from the list.
    6. Click "OK"
    All Done.... :-)

    Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them; in that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
    Restart the router and the broadband device, if they're separate. Any change?
    Run Software Update and install all available updates for OS X or the computer's firmware. Any change?
    If possible, connect to the router with an Ethernet cable and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?
    Are any other devices on the network, and if so, are they the same?
    If you can connect to more than one network, are they all the same?
    Are all network applications affected, or only some? If only some, which ones?
    Is networking always the same, or is the problem intermittent?
    Disconnect all other devices from the network. Any change?
    If you're running a MacBook with the lid closed, open the lid. Any difference?
    Start up in safe mode and test. Any difference?
    Start up in Recovery mode. From the OS X Utilities screen, select Get Help Online. A clean copy of Safari will launch. No plugins, such as Flash, will be available. Any difference?
    If possible, turn off Bluetooth and disconnect any USB 3 devices. Any difference?

    How can I make an external link (to a different folder) from the main menu?

    If the folder is outside the Muse page, you will have to insert manual HTML to define a more complex URL like e.g. ../_stuff for going one level up and then into a folder called "_stuff" The deeper you are in the hierarchy, the more ../ you will have to add to climb up.

    Help - I have an apple id account, where is my iPod and iPad registered, but also the iPod of my daughter. How can I make an account for my daughter and keep all the apps she has on her iPod and in her own iTunes?

    Sorry, content bought with one Apple ID cannot be merged or transferred to another Apple ID.

    Note that an iPad is not a multi-user device. It can only be synced with one account.
