How to get search sites icons on desk top, not firefox's

When putting desktop shortcut I get all firefox icons instead of search sites icon. how do I change it?

If you drag a link or favicon on the left end of the location bar onto the desktop to create an internet shortcut then that shortcut gets the icon of the default browser.
If you want a different icon (favicon) then you have to assign that icon yourself to the desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties).
You can usually get the favicon if you append "favicon.ico" to the main domain of a website (e.g. http://www.mozilla.com/favicon.ico ) to display the favicon in a tab and save that image to a folder or see if you can find it in "Tools > Page Info > Media".

  • How to Get Rid of White Stripe At Top of Firefox Browser

    I have the current version of Firefox installed. Recently, perhaps with the most recent install, I'm not exactly sure, a white stripe appeared at the top of the browser, right under the search and URL boxes at the top of where websites would normally show, a white stripe about a 1/2 inch thick has appeared. Not on every single site, google.com works fine, but for example, it blocks out the home, connect, discover and me tabs on Twitter. Or if you go to mozilla.com, the tabs at the top of the mozilla site briefly show, then are blocked by the white bar. You can't click on any of them, even if you have your mouse pointed at the right spot. You can refresh the screen and they'll briefly show again, but not long enough for you to click on anything.
    I've run a number of search engine queries trying to find out how to get rid of this problem, but I'm only finding resolutions for webmasters, not for end users who have to deal with this problem on the other end of the browser.
    Anyone know how to get rid of this nuisance? I'm about ready to uninstall Firefox because its useless on many sites with buttons and tabs on top.

    I shut down all but one of the extensions, and that seems to have resolved the problem. Thank you!
    Now to figure out which extensions I need, and which I don't, because I don't have a clue. I don't remember installing most of these, I only recall one or two (nothing looks spammy like funmoods, but still don't remember when or why these were added...)

  • IE allows the placement of shortcuts to internet sites on my desk top. How do I do this in Firefox?

    I am using Windows XP on a Toshiba laptop. In IE I can right click on a site and a pop up window offers an option to place a shot cut to the site on the desk top. Can I do this in Firefox and, if so, how?

    You can drag the favicon on the left end of the location bar onto the desktop to create a shortcut.
    You can also use an extension.

  • How to get the reporting icon  in cube.

    hi,
    i have a successful request(with all the required data) in the cube (manage screen) but i could n't get the reporting icon next to request id   in the cube manage screen how to get ithe reporting icon.

    This might be because of  issue -- data is not ready to view in the Query level. So that it happened.
    Go to the 'Manage' in the InfoCube level and verify the last updated request are ready to report.
    The possible causes may be
    1. If the previous request may be an error in Cube level, the other requests will not be ready to report.
    2. If there is Aggregate is maintaining in the Cube level, you should perform rollup to fill aggregates and made the requests available to report.

  • I have recently had to fire my web designer who was using iWeb.  Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the site to open in iWeb on my new MacBook Pro.  Is there a way?

    I have recently had to fire my web designer who was using iWeb.  Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the site to open in iWeb on my new MacBook Pro.  Is there a way?

    Firstly iWeb CAN'T IMPORT any kind of published html code as it has no import facility.  You can however add html code, javascript and css by selecting the html snippet and placing it on your page the entering the code in here and clicking on Apply.  You DO NOT create a shape as you say - you use the html snippet and place your code in there.
    There are not really a lot of ways in which you can write code - if you want to enter small amounts of code, then you would use an ordinary text editor to do this such as Text Edit on a Mac or Text Wrangler.  If you want to add code to iWeb like this, then you would either use the html snippet method in iWeb itself or you would have to publish the site to a local folder from iWeb and open the relevant html page with a text editor and add the additional code in this way and then publish.  However, if he decided to add the code with a text editor, then you would have to upload the pages directly to the server using an ftp client - if you try to upload the site directly from iWeb, all the extra code will be overwritten.
    As for checking whether the site was created using iWeb, all you need do is view the site in Safari and then click on View and then select View Source Code and it will tell you.
    Even thoough extra code was added to the site and he might well have done this by publishing to a local folder and adding the code with a text editor, he should still have the domain file for the site too.
    Ask again.  I'm sure that for adding quick code, most would not want to use programmes such as Dreamweaver, but a simple text editor will suffice.  As OT already said, if he claims that he does not have the domain.sites file, then try Flux 4 which is a web design programme and has full import facilities.  At least this way, if he just gives you the published version of the site, you have some way of opening it.
    You can download a free trial of Flux 4 and you can also purchase the full version from the Mac App Store if you decide you like it.

  • I just upgraded Dreamweaver CS5 to CC - sites did not migrate - how to get my sites back?

    I just upgraded Dreamweaver CS5 to CC - sites did not migrate - how to get my sites back?
    (I'd rather not recreate them all from scratch)
    PS - Go easy on me - it's my first post in this forum .
    Thanks,
    Rob

    Seems to be different results for different people.
    My sites have usually migrated automatically whenever I have upgraded. Others report the same outcome as you.
    I've never traced the reasons for non-migration to a single root cause.

    Drag the Word icon back to where it belongs.
    Applications > Microsoft Office 2011 > Put Word there.
    I'm assuming you have Office 2011. If you have 2008 there should be a similar location to put Word.
