How to reorder search engine add ons in Firefox Mobile for Android?

I've installed a few search engines as add ons in Firefox Mobile, and want to change the order they are listed in.
I'd expect this to be a simple drag and drop (I believe Opera Mobile allows search engines to be reorded by drag and drop), but that doesn't work.
How to I change the order in which search engines appear?

The only method right now is to disable or uninstall search engines. Doing a better job of being able to adjust this would be good.

Search Engine add ons not working

I suddenly have a few search engines that just wont work in the search, the netflix one just simply brings me to the netflix home page and doesnt actually search and the facebook one will only search for the first word typed

Hi Masson26,
I'd try starting Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting-extensions-themes Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide ] and the [[Troubleshooting plugins]] article as well.
You could also try deleting the Search Engines and reinstalling them. This article will show you where you can find the files to delete them completely:

Hopefully this helps!

How do i run add ons on firefox running on android tablet

i m unable to locate the installed add ons in the browser..

Hi,
Sorry for the delayed reply. If you go to the Preferences, you should see new options for each add-on. Let me know which add-ons your using (I don't see any installed in your system data).
When you find an add-on using the search on the Add-ons screen, you need to tap it and then an Add to Firefox button will appear. Tap the Add to Firefox button to install it. Then, you should get additional items listed on the Preferences screen.
Thanks,
Michelle

Im missing title (address) bar and the tab "+" button on Firefox Mobile for Android, how do i get them back?

I think I accidentally went into fullscreen and cant figure out how to get out of it on Firefox for Android Tablet (Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0)

Hello Sher.
If you're talking about the menu bar, press ALT or F10 in your keyboard to make the Menu Bar temporarily visible. If you want it to be permanently visible, go into ''View > Toolbars > Menu Bar'', or right-click the Navigation Toolbar (the Reload button, for example) and select ''Menu Bar''.
If this doesn't help, right-click the navigation toolbar, select ''Customize...'' and click ''Restore Default Set''. If it doesn't appear right away, try pressing ALT or F10. You can go into ''View > Toolbars > Menu Bar'' to make it permanently visible, or right-click the Navigation Toolbar and select ''Menu Bar''.
If none of this helps, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Try disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal.

How do I add a search engine of my own choice (i.e one which is not available among the "Manage Search Engines" add-ons) to the Search Engine Box dropdown?

I'm running Firefox 6 on Windows XP

Glad it worked. Thanks for posting back.
You may note there are some changes coming up with Firefox's searches. In Fx23 whatever you set in the search bar is also used for other searches, so you may get unexpected videos showing up from the address bar.
Further in the future, probably Fx25 the navigation and search bar are being combined. Then there is talk of a new concept of search tabs.
Computer technology always changes. Moore's law gives ever more computing power but someone always finds a new feature or facility that becomes a must have essential and eats up all the power.

How do you select text on a Web page in Firefox mobile for Android?

When trying to select text to copy, the only option is to share with email.

hello Gatorgatch, you can select text by long-taping on it - then there should appear an option to copy it in the toolbar at the top.

If this is the case I've to use another browser because I 've no intention to to use Ask.com. Pls comment! Wbr/ Rolf

Hello Don.
You can access the add-on manager by going into Tools > Add-ons. It's the Extensions tab you want, most likely, since plugins and themes tend not to make popups appear.
If you want to disable the automatic update of add-ons, simply go into Tools > Options > Advanced > Updates and untick "Add-ons".

How to implement search engine for pdf file.

Hi
I am newbie to AIR technolgy .how to implement search engine . when i enter the name of file in search box , it should fetch correspoding the pdf file .
Please help me out
Thanks
Mohan

Hi sekhar,
Your Requirement can be implemented by OVS(Object Value selector) This is the custom search help .So that you can define on what basis the value has to be fetched.
Look at the below link
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDABAP/ABAPWDObjectValueSelector(OVS)
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/606288d6-04c6-2c10-b5ae-a240304c88ea?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
You need to use the component WDR_OVS.
It has 3 phases
In phase 1
     You will fetch the value from input field to F4 help dialog box.
In phase 2
     You will generate the search results , in this phase look for the input value given in field 2 and accordingly generate search result for the field 3.
In phase 3
     The selected value will be returned to the original screen.

How to Enable IE 10 add-ons to create PDFs?

I have IE 10 64 bit on Windows 8 64bit. I have Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.
In the Manage Add-ons area of IE 10 three add-ons for "Adobe Acrobat Create PDF" for the Helper, for Selection, and Toolbar. which are labelled as disabled. They are marked to 32 bit and 64bit architecture but when I right click on any of the three add-ons the Enable and Disable selections are grayed out. The more information selection reveals this.
Name:                   Adobe Acrobat Create PDF from Selection
Publisher:              Adobe Systems, Incorporated
Type:                   Browser Helper Object

How do I enable these add-ons?

Thanks Bill,
Yes, the plug-ins are there in "Manage Add-Ons>Toolbars and Extensions." But, when I select any of the three Add-ons for Adobe Acrobat, the view that follows has the "enabled" and "disabled" buttons grayed out. No matter how many times I select enable, the add-ons remain disabled.
I think the add-ons only work for 32 bit Internet Explorer, not the 64 bit Internet Explorer, or maybe not even for Windows 8 64 bit.
