How to fix hijacked Google Search page in OS X 10.4
Google Search page goes to different page each time I run a search. I am on an Intel iMac running OS X 10.4. I have the latest version of ClamXAV and it does not find anything when I run it.

Can you help me figure out how to stop Firefox from opening to welcome page / updated window, I have to close that before I can use my google search page ,which is my homepage !!
You can start by checking the Home page setting to see if that still links to the Google Home page (http://www.google.com/firefox)
* Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
You can also check the startup setting just above the home page setting.
If the home page setting isn't correct and changing it doesn't last if you close and reopen Firefox then you need to check if the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/prefs.js_file prefs.js] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] isn't corrupted.

How do I get my iPhone safari browser to open oh the google search page
I feel like such an idiot. This is probably a silly question but don't know how to phrase it so I can search the community boards. Anyway, when I first got my phone and opened safari, there were several options one of which was Google. I've messed with my phone and that page has disappeared and I can't seem to find it agai. And want safari to open to the google search page. Help please
You can't set a home page on Safari on the iPhone. However, you can put a shortcut to the page you want on the Home Screen of your phone. Navigate to the page you want (i.e. the Google search page). Then, tap on the icon at the bottom of the screen that looks like a box with an arrow coming out of it. Select "Add to Home Screen". Then, instead of using the Safari Icon, you'll use the shortcut and it will always take you to the Google search page.
Best of luck. -

I had Firefox on my old computer and really liked it. I can't remember how I was able to 'mesh' Firefox with my ATT home page. All I have is the 'Google' search page when I open Firefox. The page does not appear to be the same one shown under 'Getting Started', with the various tabs, etc. I'm sure it's something I haven't done correctly but I need help.
google is block in some country. so make sure you are not the citizen of those countries. 2nd, some net admin of some organization will block google for some unsung excuse. so make sure not their reasons. 3rd, if you really could properly get into google days before, try to use "nslookup" to test www.google.com, if it cannot reply a proper ip version 4 address, then it is not the problem of firefox, it is your network connection or networking setting-up problem. so you need a network-engineer-alike buddy to help you. and how to use nslookup, if you can surf online, try another search engine like yahoo.com to get detailed usage of it.
good luck buddy. -
I use google as my homepage. Very often( every day at some point) when I search a subject and click on the address, a google search page come up with list of choices. When I click on address it simply returns to this page and will not let me access any websites either by clicking on them, opening in new window or tab, nor allowing me to access anything from the address line. When this occurs, it just keeps looping into this page. I clear cache, shut down, and try everything possible. Occurs very randomly and never when I first turn on the computer. ???????
Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
* Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
* Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

At random times firefox loads an unrequested page. Sometimes it is the Google search page but more often it is a random page which sometimes loads or stays blank. I do not recognise them as sites from my directory. Otherwise Firefox works well. Any suggestion for a cure?

How do you clear google search history
How do you clear google search history. I tried the clear history in settings and all the old searches are still there
In Safari, use the open book symbol to go to bookmarks. At the top of the list is "History", tap history and then tap the clear button on the bottom left of the screen. That clears the search history as well.

Can the Google search box in Safari be made to use the UK Google search page?
I've only just realised, (after nearly eight months of Mac ownership!), that my Google search results seem to be rather US-oriented.
I think this is because the search box in Safari, which I do have set to Google as my default, is using the US Google.com search engine instead of the Google.co.uk one.
Am I correct in thinking this? And, if I am, is there any way of tweeking Safari to use the UK version please?
I'm using Safari 5.0.5If you want to fix your Google search to a specific Google location, I recommend that you download and install the free plug-in Glims:
http://www.machangout.com/
which not only does that but much more equally useful stuff! Such as enabling Safari to run full-screen, and more.)
(It adds items to Safari Preferences).
Not only does it already list a number of search engines and regions, but you can also add any other search engine not already listed in Glims by using the method described here:
http://www.machangout.com/tutorials/addsearchengine
Just enter the name you give the search engine in the name field, and the URL for it in the Query URL field. -

How do you have Google searches appear in new tab? This was previously not a problem, but it changed and I cannot return the setting. Any ideas?
I recently purchased a second hand new macbook air, although it was second hand to me the previous owner had never actually turned it on.
Something doesn't make sense here, though I'm not saying the previous owner is lying....

I'm trying to change the content of a tab. Can't find info anywhere! My new tab used to come up as Google search page. Now it is Bing, and I don't want Bing. I have uninstalled the program that inadvertently put it there but Bing remains. Where is the tab control that hooks me up with Tab content?
