Which search function do you mean?
*searching via the location bar (pref: keyword.URL)
*search bar on the Navigation Toolbar
*search bar on the about:home page (pref: browser.search.defaultenginename)
*other search bar (e.g. added by extension)
Is this about the about:home page?
If there is a problem with searching via the default about:home page then try to reset the search engine used on the about:home page.
Reset the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone pref via the right-click context menu to the default on the about:config page and close and restart Firefox to restore the about:home page to its default.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
#Open the about:config page via the location bar
#Type in the Filter bar: mstone
#Right-click the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone line and select: Reset
#Close and restart Firefox
If this didn't help then delete the delete the chromeappsstore.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder and repeat the above.
You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.

Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).

The search function doesn't work in Firefox 4.

When I go to Firefox home, the search box appears but does not work. MY OS is Windows XP.

There were some changes in Firefox 4 default settings for some of the warning messages. You can set this hidden pref to what you want, to give the warning when closing multiple Tabs. 
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# ''If you see the warning about accessing those prefs, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
# Type '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''' in the '''Filter''' line at the top, and that pref will appear. If its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''.
# Then restart Firefox.
You can repeat that for these 3 preferences - '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning''', if you want to change those too.

I recently downloaded 6.1.2 and am regretting it...for one reason...the search function no longer works correctly. !!

I personally and professionally rely on text messaging extensively. Since upgrade, the search function doesn't work correctly. It only returns partial results. This has never happened with previous upgrades. All the old texts are there but it does not search the entire history. If i compose new text and duplicate the recipients from an old text, it will bring up string...just cant search for it. PLEASE HELP SOMEONE.

I recently updated my ipad wifi only to the new ios 6.1.2 and initially I had the auto cover lock option which can be seen in the Generals tab, but then it stoped working!! Before the update, the auto cover lock worked fine. So after trying all the options, I then did a complete reset on the ipad and now its gone all together from the General tab!! I can no longer see the "auto cover lock" option.
The iPad cover lock is for when you use a cover with magnets in it to lock and unlock the iPad when you close the cover or open it. Try running a refrigerator magnet along the sides of the iPad and see if that trips the iPad Cover Lock back into the settings.
That is not the same thing as the iPad Auto Lock setting which allows you to set an allotted time before the iPad goes to sleep.
You can try resetting all settings to see if the Auto Lock feature retinrs to the iPad.
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. This can be a little time consuming re-entering all of the device settings again.

PDF files are very faint and the search function doesn't highlight the search term when found

I'm using Firefox 5 with Windows 7 64 bit. When I open a PDF file the file is very faint and the search function doesn't highlight the search term in the body of the PDF.

Dear Peter,
I met the following problem, and please help me.
My English (not Chinese) operating system: Windows XP
Version: 2002
Before using RoboHelp 7 to generate Webhelp, I perform the
following steps:
1. Control Panel->Regional Options
2. On the "Languages" page make sure make sure you check the
box "Install files for East Asian languages".
3. On the "Advanced" page select "Chinese" from the language
dropdown list.
Then I perform the following steps:
1. Use RoboHelp 7 to generate Webhelp (my Webhelp project
contains localized Chinese files).
2. In the "Search" tab, input a Chinese character(For example
"连接") and perform a seach.
Result: Serching...(or 正在搜索) or
No topics found (or
未找到主题)。
Expected result: I can get the result.

Mail search function doesn't work

Our Mail Search Function no longer works - does anyone have a fix? the mailboxes have been rebuilt, the envelope files in the library/mail directory have been deleted, and the emails have been re-indexed - still no luck in searching in the mail search feature. This was never an issure before the upgrade. Please provide help if you can ~ Thanks!~

THANKS! Went thru about 90% of the things listed there. Am Currently going thru the suggestion of the spotlight rebuild thru the terminal.
When I looked at the settings as stated here: For server-based accounts (IMAP, Exchange, iCloud, and MobileMe), make sure Mail is set to download entire messages—if it doesn’t, Spotlight can’t index them. Go to Mail -> Preferences, click Accounts, select an account, and click Advanced. Make sure the Keep Copies Of Messages For Offline Viewing pop-up menu says All Messages And Their Attachments.
This option is not viewable or available in my Mail Preference Advance screen and the "Keep Copies of Messages for Offline Viewing...." was not listed in any of the windows - went thru each one. This option was was also mentioned under my "help" - but not finable in the preferences....
Thanks again....

Hi and welcome to the discussions. This happens once in a while for no apparent reason. When it happens to me, a simple log out/log in usually gets things going again. I haven't researched to see what process died when this happens.
If that doesn't, then a restart, but first check Spotlight in System Preferences and make sure that the Privacy list is empty.

The to_date function doesn't work ?

Hello
I don't know why my to_date function doesn't work on my pc.
my statement is pretty complex so i just tried simple one
select to_date('10-Jan-2006','dd-mon-yyyy') from dual;
but even this one doesn't work it says it is invalid month
howcome?
is it because my Windows XP (not english version) doesn't recognise month Jan?
i tried it another place it worked
so is there any language pack / patch i need to install? ?
so does OS matters?
or how to fix this..please help me

By default SQL Developer picks up it's language settings up from (on Windows) the Regional and Language Options. You can see what it has set by querying the NLS_SESSION_PARAMETERS view.
Assuming you don't want to change to using DD-MM-YYYY formats for your months or change your regional settings on your PC, you need to tell SQL Developer which language you want, which you can do by adding the following lines to the file sqldeveloper\jdev\bin\sqldeveloper.conf:
AddVMOption -Duser.language=en
AddVMOption -Duser.country=US

ICal Tasks/To Do Items Keep Disappearing, plus search function doesn't work

Ever since I upgraded my Mobile Me calendars about two or three weeks ago, which as I understand makes my calendars now LIVE on the Mobile Me cloud instead of directly on my computers, I have had nothing but trouble with iCal. I use Bento with iCal for my project management system — I use the iCal Tasks for my basic information, and I added extra fields in Bento for other details I like to track. Anyway, the upgrade completely unhinged where those two came together so that the basic information that Bento was getting from iCal no longer matched with the extra details.
But that's no longer my problem. I fixed that easily by completely changing the way I track things now — I did away with the extra fields and decided to have Bento work directly and only with the information in my iCal app.
Still, another problem came up, the one I need an answer to. New tasks I entered through Bento, wouldn't KEEP on iCal. They'd show up momentarily, but a day or two later, they would be gone.
I thought I fixed it a few days ago when I discovered that Time Zone Support wasn't checked on iCal. I made sure it was checked on all my computers AND on Mobile Me because I suspected that Tasks were disappearing every time my computers synced with Mobile Me. It seemed to work fine after making sure everything supported time zones. I even synced a few times, just to test it, checked all calendars at all places, and whatever Tasks or To Do Items I added from within Bento appeared to sync fine, appear at all the proper places, at all instances of the calendars, AND stay put.
BUT I just discovered tonight, that the new Tasks I entered in the last week for one of my calendars have ONCE AGAIN disappeared. For some reason, though, the new tasks I entered for another one of my calendars managed to stay put. I have no idea why one calendar was affected and another wasn't.
The point is, I can't for the life of me figure out why my newly entered Tasks keep disappearing. Is it an iCal thing? Is it Mobile Me? Is it because I am entering the tasks/to do items from within Bento? What?
And the icing on the cake? The search function on the iCal app on one of my computers no longer works. I will search for a task/to do item that I KNOW is there and can actually see on the side bar, but it will not pop up in the search results. I searched online about how to fix that, but none of the fixes work — many of them, I believe, are outdated and so can't work in my case.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix these issues?

with iTunes and the apple.com web site, you don't hit
the Magnifing glass, after typing out what your
searching for, you hit enter on the keyboard. The mag
glass (Atleast in windows) is just for decor showing
you its a search field, its not an actual button like
it would be in most Microsoft/Windows apps
Thanks. I thought the magnifying glass was a clickable icon.

The copy function doesn't work for years

Hi experts,
i have a copy function for copying a combination of version, vtype and fiscyear in another combination e.g.
version = 0, vtype = 10 and fiscyear = 2010 should be copied to version = 101, vtype = 60 and fiscyear = 2011
As far as the year doesn't change the function works for example with the same combination as before just from
fiscyear = 2010 to fiscyear = 2010 but when i try to copy from 2010 to 2011 no data will be generated.
The interesting thing is that i have all the TO-Variables for version, vtype and fiscyear in the filter and all of these char.
are selected as to changed char. in the planning function. I defined all the From-variables version-from, vtype-from and
fiscyear-from in the from part of function and the TO-variables as version-to, vtype-to and fiscyear-to in the TO-Part of the function.
Has anyone an idea why it's not working for different years?
Thank you all in advance.
Kind regards,
Ansarial

Hi Cornelia,
i tried to change the fiscper too within the copy planning function and i had to work with exit variables to derive the fiscper from the fiscyear dependent on the year inputted by user. But in order to copy every periode i had to use the offset function which has not worked. I don't know why. I want to go for your proposal so i had some questions:
- if i want to create a char. relationship with fiscyear and fiscper3 as source fields and fiscper as target field i get an error message at checking the char. relationship that tells me that it is an inconsistency and it is not possible to FISCYEAR FISCPER3
-> FISCPER. So what to do?
I created the class and write my ABAP in the derive methode but the relationship doesn't seem to work.
Do you know all the steps i have to do to derive fiscper from the other two for my copy function?
I would be very appreciate it.
Thanks and regards,
Ali
