I can select the address in the location bar, but cannot type or change it...must use links and searches to get to new sites...

key board works everywhere else...Have tried disabling most extensions and a suspicious add-ons...

Install the Stylish extension
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/stylish/
Then create a new style, paste the following in it, and save it.
<pre>@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);
.urlbar-history-dropmarker { display: none !important }</pre>
Alternatively, you can use the above style in the ''userChrome.css'' file instead. This is a more complicated method. Among the pitfalls of using this second method: the first line of the style should only appear in that file once (so if it's already there, omit it) and Firefox must be restarted for the change to take effect. More details can be found in the Mozillazine knowledgebase article below.

    Good point BDAqua, the Escape key helps get me back to reality in Lion.
    While I've only dabbled around a little in Lion since it's release (I upgraded a 10.6 Clone to Lion on one of my FireWire Drives) now I'm currently downloading Mountain Lion (to upgrade a Clone of that Lion Clone) so that now I can continue to move forward in madness.
    P.S. Trust me, I'm not laughing.

  • How to select multiple addresses from the contacts list to send an email?

    How do I select multiple addresses from the contacts list at one time to send an email. Each time I select one, the address book closes and I have to touch the "+" key to open it back to select another address. Is there a way to select all of them at one time instead of making a group? Thanks.

    Yes, once you select a person from your Contacts app, you either need to select more from the '+' button or you can tap in the 'to:' field and type in the first few letters of a contact and select from the list. Kinda bummer but gotta make do.

  • Clicking on the downward arrow at the right end of the location bar no longer displays the drop-down list of sites visited, bookmarks and addresses typed in location bar

    Since I upgraded to Firefox version 3.6.10, clicking on the downward arrow at the right end of the location bar no longer displays the drop-down list of sites visited, bookmarks and addresses typed in location bar. My Tools > Options > privacy setting is to save history, and if I start typing a previously accessed website's address in the location bar, then the full address appears as a drop-down item. But not when I just click at the right end of the bar.

    You can try "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" on the [[Safe mode]] start window.
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • In Mail 3.6 how can I delete address from the drop down menu?

    When I update an email address in the Address Book, the drop down menu in a new email is still the old address.

    I think I figured it out. I have to click on the arrow beside the smart address in a new email and delete it there. I tried removing previous recipients but without success. I'm not sure what the name of my software is. Maybe snow leopard. How can I find that?
    Thanks for the suggestion and it probably helped a lot of other users and would have helped me if I knew the software.

    bought the phone in America and I can not activate. addressed to the cellular company they refuse razbloairovat sprint since I'm outside of America? help! What to do?

    Return it for a refund, if you can. Otherwise, sell it to someone that can use it on Sprint's network in the US.
    Fact is, Sprint will only unlock the sim slot for customers using the phone on their network...obviously not you. Sorry, but you wasted your money.

  • Is it possible to create a list using the addresses in the "TO" list from a received email?

    I have a very large group I'd like to create an email list for. I don't want to have to search in my address book for every address that needs to go into it. Is there away that I can use an email that I've received which has been sent to every member I want in the list - all are listed in the "To" portion of the header - and create a list from those addresses? Thanks.

    I know how to do that. I don't want to have to take the time to search through the gazillion addresses in my address book to find each one and then drag or type them into the list. My question was is there away to have all the addresses in the "To" field used to create a list by - for instance - somehow selecting all of these addresses and saying create a list from them. Or clicking on an option that would give me the ability to create a list from all the addresses in the "To" field of a specific email. Thanks.

  • The address in the URL-bar doesn't update after clicking some links. Why?

    Hello,
    first: thanks a lot for this great Browser!
    My Firefox-Version:
    6.0.2 on Windows XP
    My Problem:
    Since a few weeks (I think since Version 6.x) I experience this problem.
    When I click on a link, normally the URL-bar gets updated and shows the address of the new (the current) website.
    This doesn´t work now - for some links!
    Example:
    Surf to times.com.
    Then click on an article-link (for example this one: "Opinion »
    Op-Ed: Germany’s Mediterranean Envy ).
    The link (the new website) opens in the same tab. But in the URL-bar I still see just "times.com". I even don't see "http://" infront of it.
    And very important to me: I don't see the complete URL of the article - which should be
    "http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/26/opinion/germanys-love-for-greece.html?hp".
    That causes many problems with my work. :-/
    Please help.
    Thank you!

  • Require to change the address in the Work address view of the contact

    Hi All,
    We have a requirement in which the user access a Contact. In it he access the Work Address assignment block navigates through the "EDIT" button.In that view the Address field is non editable, which remains editable only when the user is assigning the new address. When i make that field editable on the event of EDIT button also then it becomes a dropdown and on selecting a value other than the saved value, and on saving the same it does not saves the changed address although all other changed values of other editable fields are saved successfully.
    Can anyone suggest any other approach for changing the same address on that particular view? or any suggestion for saving the same value.
    Cheers,
    Sharad

    Hi Sharad,
    to change the address of the contact you must change in "Main Address and Communication Data" view. The work address view is responsible for storage the address of main account.

  • The address of the page I am on does not appear in the address bar?

    Since upgrading to Firefox 4, the address of the page I am on, does not appear. I often want to send the link to someone, but now I can't.

    You will all be interested to know, I had been unable to see the link of the page I was on, nor was I able to go back or forward on any webpage.............
    Both problems were solved when I disabled the "Color Tabs" Add On.
    I literally went through each add on, disabling it, and then re-starting Firefox. Again, when I disabled "Color Tabs", problem(s) solved..........
    I impressed even myself.
    Thanks for the Tip.
    I guess certain Add-Ons affect each computer differently, based on what you already have added.

    What is this "box"?  What is this "folder" you're asking about?  You'll likely get a better answer if you use standard terminology.

    What is the easiest way to access the router from an iPad?  I have no problems accessing it from my laptop.  Even though I am entering the address in the left address box, not the Google search box, it wants to do either a search, or add www to the beginning of the IP address.
    I usually can eventually access the router, but it is way to much trouble.  However, I use my iPad hundreds of times more often than my laptop.

    Are you typing http:// in front of the IP address of the router? e.g. http://192.168.0.1
    Sometimes, and with some routers it doesn't seem to like it if you miss off the http://

    When I go into bookmarks and click on a site, the screen shows what appears to be a compass with a lock overlay, on a black background. At the bottom the address/url are shown. Theses cannot be opened. Other bookmarks have the black background and compass, but no lock. These can be opened by clicking on the compass. What is wrong?

    Thanks to the-edmeister and cor-el, for speed of response. I had not inadvertently moved the Bookmarks-Toolbar : I was confronted with the situation right after Firefox 9 had installed and unfolded in front of me. At first, the toolbar area looked reassuringly familiar, but when I started normal work, I discovered the lack of tabs and the only reference I could see to TABS was a tiny button inviting me to group tabs (which was unhelpful to say the least, filling up the screen with tiny unreadable windows). Sure, there were tabs forming, but they were invisible, unless I used the group button. Eventually, I was brave enough to use "reset toolbars" and the tabs came back in the way I want them, but it was a traumatic 2-3 hours out of my life. I kept on "adding a new toolbar" to see if I could make use of it; I kept giving them names, but it is impossible to see where the new tool bar is! (the toolbars don't have a little bit to grab at one end). In my opinion, Firefox should not have allowed the Tab Bar and the Bookmarks Toolbar to become caught up with each other - they have completely different functions. I don't think I would like to play around with "Make a new profile"! I was so desperate that I have already downloaded version 3.6 again, ready to install, for if I was unable to resolve the version 9 problems above.
