I am unable to read what is typed in the search box on Google with the newest version of Firefox

Now with version 7.01 when you go to type something into a box a light blue shading appears in the input box. The problem is when I try and use Google search the box obscures what I have typed in the box. Makes Google totally unusable. Firefox is the only browser I am seeing this problem in. It seems to only happen part of the time...

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 <b>browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone</b> pref via the right-click context menu to the default on the <b>about:config</b> page and close and restart Firefox to restore the about:home page to its default.

#Open the <b>about:config</b> 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.

  • What happened to the search box in toolbar in PDF Reader X

    Hi,
    Can anyone help on how to get the search box to show in the toolbar as had in previous versions of reader? There dosn't seem to be option to activate it in preferances. Seems idiotic to remove it, used it lot ot search documents, etc.
    If it's been removed does anyone have link for verison 9.4?
    Thanks in advace for any help

    The workaround described here only enables the search button.
    As I understand, there is no way to still have the search box (or search field) in the toolbar.
    As others wrote, at least for me it is a fundamental feature to be able to search for something with Acrobat (Reader).
    Being able just to write the word to search, was so easy.
    So, WHY, did you remove this feature?
    For this reason, I switched back to Version 9 (wich is not easy if
    you have Acrobat Std X installed; you first have to uninstall Acrobat Std X, install Reader 9,
    and then reinstall Acrobat Std X again).
    Sorry Adobe, but this is an IMPORTANT step backwards, which is absolutely not acceptable.
    Please, never remove a core feature (I really couldn't believe it, at first, and thought I am too stupid to find the right way to enable it).

    Thank Silkrooster for your prompt answer. I just figured out my trouble was caused by the font size was 12pt while the photo resolution was large 20M pixels. By changing the font size to 200 I was able to see all the text. Thanks again!

  • I want to set up the Time Machine and I would love to use the Time  Capsule but since I already have a wireless router I need suggestions on  what other external disks Apple could recommend to use with the Time Machine and  how to configure that disk

    I want to set up the Time Machine and I would love to use the Time
    Capsule but since I already have a wireless router I need suggestions on
    what other
    external disks Apple could recommend to use with the Time Machine and
    how to configure that disk.
    A complication that I need to resolve is the fact that I am using Vmware
    Fusion to be able to use Windows on my Mac. Now it seems that Time
    Machine is not backing up my files
    on that virtual Windows without additional configuration and my question
    is whether you can advise me here or whether this is only a matter for
    the Fusion virtual machine.

    If you want to use Time Capsule you can.. you simply bridge it and plug it into the existing router.. wireless can be either turned off or used to reinforce the existing wireless.. eg use 5ghz in the TC which is much faster than your 2.4ghz.
    You can also use a NAS.. many brands available but the top brands are synology, qnap and netgear readynas  series. These will all do Time Machine backups although how well always depends on Apple sticking to a standard. There are cheaper ones.. I bought a single disk zyxel which was rebadged and sold through my local supermarket. It actually works very well for TM at least on Snow Leopard. Major changes were made in Lion and again ML so do not instantly think it will work on later versions. I haven't tried it yet with those versions.
    Any external drive can be plugged into the mac. Use the one with the fastest connection or cheapest price according to your budget. USB2 drives are cheap and plentiful. But no where near as fast as USB3 or FW800. So just pick whichever suits the ports on your Mac. Interesting Apple finally moved to USB3 on their latest computers.
    TM should exclude the VM partition file.. it is useless backing it up from Mac OS side.. and will slow TM as it needs to backup that partition everyday for no purpose.. TM cannot see the files inside it to backup just the changes.
    You need to backup windows from windows. Use MSbackup to external drive.. if you have pro or ultimate versions you can backup to network drive. But MSbackup is a dog.. at least until the latest version it cannot restore the partition without first loading windows. There are about a zillion backup software versions for windows.. look up reviews and buy one which works for you. I use a free one Macrium Reflect which does full disk backups and is easy to restore.. to do incremental backups though you have to pay for it.

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

    Try this...
    You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...

    Hello. I have a new Iphone 5S and the charger taht came with the phone doesn´t charge my Iphone. The cable is good because I´m charging the phone via my PC. I tried every recomendation posted here but none helped me...I live in Argentina and we don´t have local support here, I would´ve ask for a new one but it´s not an option here. Does anyone know what can I do? Thanks in advance. Regards.

    I live in China as well and my iPhone5s is the model A1530 I bougth outside China. I have the same problem as Nikatnight with the iPhone while the iPad Air (wifi only) is working like a charm. It must be definitely something related to the carrier since I was abroad few days ago and everything worked well.
    If you pay attention at the source of your maps, you'll discover they are provided by AutoNavi instead of TomTom and make them appear in chinese with their own border interpretation. Queries are only acceppted in Chinese (p.e. if I type in english "Los Angeles International Airport"  it replies it cannot locate it)
    I suppose everything will be fine when you'll be out of censorship....
    Perhaps iOS  Apple Maps are absolutely useless for expatriate in China.
    Use Google Maps instead
    BTW, I'm surprised how much Apple might prostrate towards hard power Governments.... No matter what, money are always on top!

    Everytime I try to type something in the search box a further box appears to tell me this is a JSON file and what program should I use to open it.
    This has only happened since reinstalling my system a couple of weeks ago.
    I am not really interested in what a json file is I simply want to get rid of this pop up box.

  • HT201210 I upgraded from iPhone 3G to 4S a few days ago. I choose the option to restore from my last 3G backup. It worked fine but I just realized that I do not have the new apps which come with the 4S. What should I do? Thanks for any help. Léo

    I upgraded from iPhone 3G to 4S a few days ago. When setting up the new 4S, I choose to restore my last 3G backup. It started by updating the OS to version 5.1 (9B179) then restored my apps and setting. Everything went well except that I realized I do not have the new apps which come with the 4S, like FaceTime, HD video and Siri.
    What should I do to correct this?
    Thank you in advance for any help on this.

    Ah, FaceTime is not an app, either. It's accessed by tapping the FaceTime button when you are in the contacts app and have selected a contact. This can also be done from the Phone app under the Contacts tab, or during a call, you can switch to FaceTime.
    Let me know what other apps/features you are missing.

  • What character splits search terms (for different search result tabs), searching from the search box.

    When we type in a search term, in the search box, the results can be shown in a tab. But how can you split search terms while entering them all at once, each search term providing results in a new tab.
    "Search Term|Search Term Two", using |;\ etc only sends the term in entirety beyond. What does this box handle and how to make it open two tabs when given two separated search terms.
    So what is this special character or setting?
    Thank You

    Thank u so Bruce , I finally found an answer to my question.
    The solution u provided looks complete except that i am confused by the meaning of strField , may i didnt provide more details in my  post .
    The strField var i provided earlier was not meant to be placed in my code  , the correct one is shown below .However , the strField means according to me is the field against which the search operation should take place based on the ( search Term )
    the user provided . 
    Here is the code after applying the solution u suggested :
    'Information collected from the user      
     strWhereToSearch = IIf(.framSearchIn.Value = 1, "[quknotSubject]", "[quknotBody] ")       
    strCondition = strWhereToSearch & "  Like '* " & strTextSearch & " *' OR " & _
    strWhereToSearch & " Like '" & strTextSearch & " *' OR " & _ 
    strWhereToSearch & "Like '* " & strTextSearch & "'" 
    'Fill result search  Recordset      
    strSql = " Select  * from qryExtraTool_QuickNoteSubCatMainCat   "         
    strSql = strSql & " WHERE   " & strCondition & "  ORDER BY quknotDate"  
    'Control Source for the text box to display matches. ( Highlight the search word )     
    txtQuickNoteBody = SearchHilight(strWhereToSearch, strTextSearch)
    Tell me if my implementation to your code is right ?
    Thank u again Bruce ...
