How to change the search provider when using the Firefox Home Button Search feature?

In Firefox itself I have configured duckduckgo as my default search provider.
But when I use the Firefox Home Button Search it is always set to google and I do not see any option to change that?
I like the Firefox Home Button Search (or whatever it's called) otherwise, but it's annoying that it does not use the default from Firefox.
I use the Google Now Launcher.

...usually it will be enough to switch the default engine in firefox back and forth once to work around the issue...

Thank you, problem resolved

  • How do I remove an old username from the app store when using the update function

    How do I remove an old username from the app store when using the update function.
    I purchased my Mac used.  The former owners username prepopulates when I try to perform the updated function on the app store.  It does not allow me to use a different user name.    I have created my own username and password.  I have even been able to purchase items from the app store, it's just when I use the update function it does populate with my username.  Any help is appreciated.

    The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
    1. You don't own another Mac.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    2. You do own another Mac.
    If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can boot from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
    Once booted in Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    Then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
    If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
    If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to  authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.

  • Omit the XML declaration when using the PHP MM_XSLTransform class

    Hi
    Is there any way to omit the XML declaration when using the
    PHP MM_XSLTransform class?
    When using the PHP MM_XSLTransform to transform some XML into
    HTML, the XML declaration is faithfully delivered, which is
    expected. In my case though this ends up in the body of the
    document and is not desired. I wish to choose that the XML
    declaration is not shown.
    I have tried to use the <xsl:output method="xml"
    encoding="utf-8" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/> in the XSL
    stylesheet but the declaration still appears.
    Any help?
    all the best

  • How to change annotation's appearance  when printing the annotation under Adobe Reader?

      I'm developping a plugin under SDK 7.0 for Adobe Reader  . I have two problems.
      1)I will change annotation's appearance  when printing the annotation. How to do under Adobe Reader?
        Uunder Adobe Arobat,I use PDRegisterAnnotHandler to register GetPrintAppearance,but PDRegisterAnnotHandler does not work under Adobe Reader.
      2)Under Adobe Reader ,app.execMenuItem doesnt work.How to execute menuItem using JavaScript under Adobe Reader?
    Please Help,had better give me sample,thank.

    app.execMenuItem most certainly does work with Reader - what problems are you running into trying to use it?
    As for developing Reader plug-ins - yes, some of the SDK methods aren't available to Reader.  If you want to change the appearance of an annotation in Reader, you would need to acquire the Cos object of that annotation and modify its appearance dictionary manually.

  • How can I change the color of the highlighted text when using the FIND function in Terminal?

    When searching for text in the Terminal's buffer, the matched text is highlighted using a color which seems to be computed from the background's color. I'm using a black backgroud and the finder's highlighter is grey. How can I change this? I'd like to specify the foreground and background colors of the matching text. I couldn't find an appropriate setting in the terminal's settings, nor in the default settings using the command "defaults".

    In my .bashrc file, I have enabled a couple of grep environment variables.
    GREP_OPTIONS='--color=always'
    GREP_COLOR='00;38;5;226'
    The latter is a vivid yellow.

  • How to suppress Save As dialog when using the Close button on an editable pdf

    Environment: Windows 7, SDK 9, Adobe Acrobat Pro X, Visual Studio 2010 Professional
    Summary: when a document is opened for editing using automation, edited, then closed using the "Close" button, the confirmation dialog appears, "yes" is selected and then the "Save As" dialog appears.  It should save without the "Save As" dialog in the same way it does were the document opened from Adobe Acrobat directly.  My question is, is there any flag to set which governs whether the "Save As" dialog appears as part of the close document process.  It is behaving as if the document is read-only upon close. (it isn't)
    This is how the document is opened from C++:
    if(SUCCEEDED(hr = ::CoCreateInstance(__uuidof(Adobe9::Acrobat::CAcroAVDoc), 0, CLSCTX_ALL, IID_IUnknown, (void**)&pUnk))){
    hr = OleRun(pUnk);
    if (SUCCEEDED(hr)){
    if (SUCCEEDED(hr = pUnk->QueryInterface(&pAVDoc))){
    hr = pAVDoc->Open((BSTR)CComBSTR(strPath), strDocName, &bRet);
    Even when the plugin is removed from the plug_ins\AcrobatSDK directory, the behaviour is the same.
    Another reproduction is running the BasicIacVC sample, commenting out all lines from gAcroPdDoc->Close(); in InitInstance() and returning TRUE.  If an editable document is opened using the sample, edited then closed using the "X" button, the confirmation dialog is followed by a "Save As" dialog as if it were a read-only document which it is not.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Evan

    Yes, it does.  (as long as the pdf has been opened via a COM interface)

  • How to get a report "closed" when using the ReportViewerBean

    I read the article /people/ted.ueda/blog/2008/12/20/crystal-reports-for-eclipse--ensuring-report-cleanup from Ted Ueda regarding cleaning up reports for the RAS server.  However, I'm trying to figure out how to get this accomplished for a thick client accessing a local rpt file and then displaying that file using the ReportViewerBean.  I can't seem to get the report closed. I tried the dispose() techniqe from the article, but with no success.
    My basic process is:
    1) Press button on main frame to open and set up report
    2) Pass open report (via ReportClientDocument) object to the viewer frame class (which views report in separate window using ReportViewerBean)
    3) Close viewer window when done, destroy ReportVieweBean and close ReportClientDocument
    4) Press button again on main frame later to view report
    If I set up the report but skip the step of sending the report to the viewer frame, ReportClientDocument.isOpen() will go from true to false after I execute just  the ReportDocumentClient.close() command.  However, if open the viewer frame, I cannot get the report closed.
    In the window closing event for my viewer window I have:
    public void quit() {
                try {
                    CrystalReportViewer crv1 = new CrystalReportViewer();
                    crv1.setReportSource(reportClientDoc.getReportSource());
                    reportViewer.destroy();  //this is a ReportViewerBean
                    reportClientDoc.close();  //this is a ReportClientDoc
                    crv1.dispose();
                    //the following is always true
                    System.out.println("ReportClientDoc.isOpen: " + reportClientDoc.isOpen());
                    this.dispose();
                catch(ReportSDKException ex) {
                    ex.printStackTrace();
                catch(ReportSDKExceptionBase ex) {
                    ex.printStackTrace();
    I'm using the latest Java CR4E 12.2.205.825 downloaded from the CR4E website.  Any ideas?

  • "How do i use all 16 channels on the PCI-6024E when using the daw acquisition toolkit in MATLAB?

    I am having trouble with MATLAB's daq toolkit recognizing all 16 single-ended channels. Right now, it only detects the lower half (channels 0 through 7). How can I access the upper half? I have already changed the properties to single-ended using the MAX program.

    I am not sure why you are having this problem. This might be a limitation of MATLAB's daq toolbox. Can you access all 16 single-ended channels by running a test-panel in MAX? You can run a test-panel by right-clicking on the PCI-6024E in MAX within devices and interfaces select "Test Panels." If you can access all 16-channels in MAX then the PCI-6024E is working correctly; I would suggest that you contact Mathwork's support.
    Is there a reason you are not using LabVIEW to interface with the PCI-6024E? LabVIEW offers a very quick and easy data acquisition solution and was built to be used with our hardware. LabVIEW also offers a multitude of built-in analysis functionality as well.
