How do I safely download google quick search box?

Can anyone tell me, how do I safely download Google Quick Search Box?

I'd likely use Spotlight or the google widget in Dashboard, although I usually stick with highlighting a word to search for, then ctrl-click & pick 'search with google'.
QSB development seems to have ceased in 2010, and it was still 'beta' software then.
http://www.alfredapp.com/ seems popular with some, and is in the app store.

How do I enable The Google Quick Search Box feature?

The Google Quick Search Box on the toolbar no longer will search when entered. The search request registers but won't search. I have to go to Google.com in order to use the Google search engine. The quick search was handy and I'd like to have it back. Per Google I need to enable it by clicking on the "wrench", search and enable... but it's not there to enable. HELP!

You can also access the Google Toolbar Options thru Tools > Addons > Extensions - Google Toolbar for Firefox & then right-click that extension and click on Options.
See this for support information about the Google Toolbar. <br />

Google quick search box

I lost the google quick search box from the screen of my droid and I am unable to locate the correct app. Also, someone told me about an amp to scan items and it then gives you a list of stores and which is the better buy.

Right... the original Google Search widget is just called "Search"
The new enhanced widget that comes with Froyo is called "Google Search"
As long as you're running 2.2 you should now see both under widgets.

Just a couple of weeks ago it found me a new Linksys wireless router on sale locally at Radio Shack (a one day only sale) for about $45 instead of Best Buy where I happened to be standing at the time, they wanted about $75 for the exact same model.

Quick Search box in Safari 6.0

My safari 6.0 browser used to have the google quick search box on the right side and it had disappeared. does anyone know how to get it back?

Thank you. I just tested that out and it did do the google search. however, i believe the way it used to work was that when you put in a search in the box on the right, it opened a new tab automatically. Now, I need to hit the plus to open a new tab before doing the search. do you know what the setting is to open a new tab with a new search? Thanks a lot and you did solve my initial question.

After a reinstall of Mac OSX 10.6.8 on my iMac, several directories were "locked" and unavailable. Can someone tell me how to unlock my Downloads, Google Plus, Dropbox and movies? Thanks!

How do I safely download Friz Quadrata font to my mac? where to download and where do I put it?

how do I safely download Friz Quadrata font to my mac? where to download and where do I put it?

Thanks for the help. I guess I am so afraid of some awful malware sneaking in, that I hesitate to go to any website and download stuff (learned a terrible lesson with MacKeeper! ... but that's another story). I took a deep breath, backed up my system, went to cooltext.com and downloaded Friz Quadrata. Then I made sure that it was in my font folder (which I found using Searchlight) and I moved it to the Modern Folder. I then restarted my Mac, and there it was! I is still not listed in Word, but if I go to the font tab and open "Font Collections," there it is. Everything seems to be working; I've used the font now and no crashes or freezes. Will keep you updated if some bad stuff happens. Thanks so much for giving me the courage to do this!!

How Do I Safely Download?

Hello! After reading many horror stories here in Discussions, I was wondering: How do I safely download iTunes 5.0.1? Currently, I'm using the iTunes that came with my iPod software in July (iTunes 4.7.1, I think). Any tips that will help me not lose my library, or anything else is greatly appreciated! Thank You!

The best tip you can and should use is to have complete backups of your music files and the Library database file. Multiple backups are even better (DVD External Hard Drive, etc.).

Adobe Reader X leaks GDI handles in quick search box

Just installed Adobe Reader X a couple of days ago (Windows 7, x64). I used it for numerous online documents (in Firefox), while searching for some specific terms in each document. After a while the reader presented a strange picture, not properly painting itself anymore. Then, the reader became unresponsive, and Firefox too, and I had to kill the task.
This happened a few times on different pdf documents.
In my programming career things like these have happened more often so, when the behavior happened again, I went checking the process using Windows Task Manager, adding a few extra columns (Handles, User Objects, GDI Objects) and found that the number of GDI objects was nearly 10000, the absolute limit that Windows imposes on any single process.
I went on checking the reader, now standalone and without Firefox, to see if the problem would persist. Opened a few pdfs and scrolled back and forth. No problems -
tried the same in Firefox to see if the plugin was OK - still no problem.
Then started using the quick search box (Ctrl-F) and repeatedly looked for something trivial (e.g. just a single letter A) - Bingo! Now the GDI handle count starts rising seriously, and does not come back to the original level.
This is definitely a leak, and it needs to be fixed.

Grey Quick Search box does not go away

I have a 5G iPod Video that I just updated to 1.2, now when I am in list of albums or songs the quick search box appears showing the letters as you scroll, but it doesn't go away after I have made my selection. The gray box just stays on top of what ever is being displayed behind it (song info, album art, etc). In only goes away when I turn the iPod off.
anyone else having this issue?

How do I add a google custom search to my search bar

Hello, I am currently trying to figure out a way to get this: https://www.google.co.uk/cse/publicurl?cx=011443679866246468437:ejnincolk1e custom google search engine to work with my quick search bar and have no idea how to go about adding it to the list of available search engines.
Is it possible to do this? If so could someone please help me get it set up?
Thank you!

Hi guys!
Thank you so much for you're replies.
@Epicaleb:
I already tried to use the 'add to search bar method' however, When I then try to search for anything via the newly added search bar, I just get directed to the search bar page as if a search has not actually been performed and I have to type the search into the actual webpage again instead of using the quick bar.
@cor-el
"This makes the search page available as a bookmark with a keyword that accepts search terms as an extra parameter and that you can invoke via the location bar"
I'm not really sure what you mean by the above part!?
As for the add on you linked me too, It does not seem to work for the reason listed @Epicaleb. It's really annoying!
Do either of you know of another way this could be achieved?

Come on guys....!!Any one here to answer or any one knows about it?

I am trying to reduce the length of the google navigation & search boxes without any succuss. This has been asked numerious times on the site but no answer fixes the problem. I can change the size by using the line that seperates the two boxes but I only

I added a personna 6/25/10, wanted to shorten the google navigation & search bars to see it but can't. Have re-installed the google tool bar, have selected the firefox tool bar version as my default and can then change the width but when one box gets shorter the other gets longer still filling the width of the screen. Customize tool bar doesn't give any options to shorten the tool bar width, I'm at a total loss. Would love suggestions if you've successfully fixed this.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== 6-25-10

The location bar and search bar have a flex property and take all available space.
You can only change the relative size of both with that resizer between the two bars.
You can only do that by adding a lot of Space elements in the View > Toolbars > Customize window.
You can set a fixed width by setting the min-width and max-width to the same value.

You can chose your own values as long as the min-width and max-width for each bar have the same value.

How do I turn off the "quick find" box in the compose email window?

I'm surprised to see this has not been asked here as I see many complaints about it on the web.....but no solution.
I have difficulties when composing emails. The "quick find" box in the lower left of the windows begins to "intercept" my typing. Once it begins I can no longer write in the actual compose box. How do I get rid of it?

How can I prevent firefox from displaying an overall black page after I request a topic search in the google/firefox search box? Not able to see results

I loaded Mozilla v31 on my PC laptop which uses Windows XP operating system with all current updates. When I click on my internet icon, it leads me to the Mozilla page with a Google search bar. Once I type a topic in and click for the search to begin, the Firefox page turns all black and I am not able to see any results or action being taken. I click on the back arrow and enter a new topic, and click on search button, it repeats the same behavior and the Firefox page turns black. Essentially Mozilla Firefox is not a usable browser unless I can fix it. Help!

When this happens, has the address bar changed to a google.com address or is it still blank?
Some graphical glitches are caused by an incompatibility between Firefox and your graphics card drivers. The standard workaround for bypassing this is to disable Firefox from using hardware acceleration. You can make that change here:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
That will take effect the next time you exit Firefox and start it up again.
More generally:
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
