I cant install any search add-ons for firefox becuase I get this message "This search engine isnt supported by firefox and cant be installed".

Hi
I have downloaded the latest version of Firefox 3.6.13 from the mozilla website, (I definatly dont have firefox 4 beta). When I try to add any new search add-ons such as Bing, Youtube, IMDB I awlays get the same message "This search engine isnt supported by firefox and cant be installed".
I have uninstalled and re-installed firefox same problem persists, I even re-installed my OS as I needed to do it anyway and same problem.

I have found a fix for myself, but i still would like to know what caused the problem.
If i get the error message, all i have to do is go to the address bar and type in random letters, then when i click install, they install and no more error message.
anyone able to explain please?

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • For 'Reason' if you get the message "Failed to Open MIDI Support Library"

    I tried to open Reason 3.0.5 with an MBox 2 on my new MacBook Pro (Leopard) and I got this message: 'Failed to Open MIDI Support Library.' When I went to my 'Audio-MIDI' setup on my Mac, nothing loaded properly...
    I found the solution to this problem after looking around online, and figured other people might be having the same problem, so here it is...
    First, create a new folder on your computer desktop and call it "Old MIDI Drivers" (or something similar), then go to Macintosh HD>library>audio>midi drivers, and move all the drivers (that you don't plan on using) from that folder into your "Old MIDI Driver" folder on your desktop. For example, I moved all the drivers out except for my MBox 2 driver.
    After you do this, you may have to restart your comp. (I didn't) and Reason should run.
    Hope this helps...

  • I have had my iphone 5 for 13 months now and have always had the same car charger (not an apple brand).  I recently downloaded the latest software update and now all of a sudden i keep getting the message that my charger isnt supported by my device.

    Is there anyway to fix this problem? Im seriously considering getting away from apple as bad as I hate too.  I love the apple OS but you can never get a hold of customer service, there is only one style of phone, and now apparently, you have to pay extra for "apple" accessories becasue others wont work. 

    Well I am having the same issue and I had not had to worry about getting a "licensed charger."  The poster who responded offered not real insite and was rude to boot.  I am also looking for the fix on this .  My iphone will not even charge now on any charger.  What the heck.  I am not trying to treaten anyone either when I say I am frustrated with my iphone which in my case I have only had for a few months.  I have already sent one in to be replaced and this is my second one.  I have had troubles since the update GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR .

  • I have yahoo on firefox, I keep getting a message saying I logged out in another page and asking me to reload. Is this for real or some kind of malware? I've had Yahoo for a great while and no problems before.

    The "reload" problem happens when I first load Firefox with "MY YAHOO" as home page.

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Trying to install Firefox, but keep getting a message that I have to restart computer to finish a previous install of firefox.

    I have restarted my computer numerous times and I get the message every time.

    Run the Firefox program once as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator).
    If that doesn't solve the problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.

  • When I installed Firefox, my add-ons for Internet Explorer were shut off. Can I only have add-ons for one browser?

    I need my Internet Explorer for work purposes. Please help shut down add-ons for Firefox assuming this is the problem
    Thank you!!!

    Firefox shouldn't affect your Internet Explorer in any way. What exactly isn't working?

  • Trying to install search add-ons (top-rated, safe). I click install, restart and nothing happens. They do not appear in the search plugins folder.

    Starting up with a new computer, I've been trying to install two search engine add-ons: easy youtube video downloader and
    search IMDB. They are top rated so presumably safe and approved. I go through the whole process of installing them, and restart Firefox as instructed but nothing happens. I looked in the search plugins folder in Firefox (Program Files). I can see the search add-ons that were there when I first started on this computer, but none of the ones I'm trying to add are there. I've gone around and around on this repeatedly with no success. Please help.

    Addon search engines aren't in the Firefox program files \searchplugins\ folder, they are in the \searchplugins\ folder in the user's respective '''Profile''' folder.

  • Firefox 4.0 will not find update to 4.0.1, add-ons for 4.0.1 will not run

    30 May 2011, 18:22h UTC
    Downloaded 4.0 UK-edition on my laptop, the 4.0 US-edition on my desktop, and the 4.0 UK-edition on a 2nd laptop.
    On mine, updates to 4.0.1 are not found, some add-ons were taken off, as incompatible, that ran on the 4.0 on my desktop (and weren't on the 2nd laptop). Add-ons, now already even compatible with 4.0.1 (running on the 2nd laptop) will not run as 'incompatible' with 4.0 (though listed on the add-ons site as compatible.
    It has stopped telling me that 'something' is pretending to be an update from Firefox (whatever that 'something' be?) since setting the browser to updating manually, but asking me first what to do. All currently installed add-ons have not asked me for some time (though on other computers), and also report as fully up-t0-date.
    Ergo: Neither Firefox 4.0 nor any installed add-ons update correctly.
    Didn't crash, though it 'likes' doing that after printing (always Badly! with dreadful printing options/previews), leaving two tabs (rather than the one before), both of which only can be shut from their context menus. Crash reports have been sent with same email address, but not been answered. This browser has all the qualities of a Beta-release and needs some serious overhauls (it's also not very new or much safer!).
    Example for an add-on that won't install on 4.0, but will under 4.0.1: CookieMonster - which is desperately needed, given your browser still suffers from minimal, insufficient cookie management, incl. lists of domains that wish to set 'another' cookie when no cookies are as yet, allegedly, sitting on the computer.

    I've since updated manually to 4.0.1, but haven't yet tried the full uninstall version, because I have to export plenty of settings first (and/or manually copy them). Also means I'd have to start from scratch with many customizations in No Script.
    That said, I'll try the 'Safe Mode' option tonight, thank you :-)!
    If I have to uninstall the whole shebang, I'd be more tempted to go back to 3.6.x until a few more of 4's teething problems (e.g. the messy print dialogues, particularly preview, which regularly doesn't even work) have been tackled.
    Thanks-1M! for now - keep you posted.

  • Where can I find 3D materials add-ons for Photoshop CC 2014?

    Where can I find 3D materials add-ons for Photoshop CC 2014? When I pull down the 3D menu to Get More Content, it takes me here: Downloadable 3D content | Photoshop.com. When I download and install the "Versatile materials", Adobe Extension Manger tells me I am installing "Material sets for Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended", which turns out to be the same exact set that I originally had in PS CC 2014. I also search here: https://creative.adobe.com/addons  to no avail.
    Anybody know where I can find 3D materials that are more current, or at least different from what I have already?

  • Installing the Java Add-In for an existing abap system

    Hi, Currently we are Installing the Java Add-In for an existing abap system.
    Following the steps (Installation guide):
    1) We sucessfully installed the Central Services Instance (SCS)
    2) We sucessfully Installed the Database Instamce Java Add-In
    Our problem comes in the third step
    3) Central Instance Java Add-In
    When the system prompts me the SAP System Identification (Select the central instance of your local host).
    I have a combo with two values: DVEBMGS00 of SAP System DEV and DVEBMGS00 of SAP System DEV
    (The same value)
    I chose anyone, and click next.
    The system send me an Input error and says "Caught EKdException in Module call: single select return more than on row"
    Any help is appreciated, and I will reward points if helpful.

    I followed an advice made for a sap consultant, and delete some profile files.
    I had the following files

    DEV_DVEMGS00_bsomtymx005

    START_SCS01_bsomtymx005
    Then, I restarted the installation, and the sapinst allow me to continue with the installation.
    I really do not know if the installation will be sucessful, but this issue is solved.
    Thanks shanji, I was working in another tasks, but with your help, I will try to resolve again this problem, and found the solution.

  • Which jar to use in order to write add-ons for IE

    Hi,
    I don't know whether I am asking the correct question but I want to know can I use any jar in order to create add-ons for Internet explorer and, if any, which one?
    thanks

    Hi Akshay,
    I have used the FM "ISU_DB_EANL_UPDATE" in my project.
    CONSTANTS lc_modify  TYPE c  VALUE 'U'.
      CALL FUNCTION 'ISU_DB_EANL_UPDATE'
        EXPORTING
          x_eanl          = xw_eanl
          x_eanl_old      = xw_eanl
          x_upd_mode      = lc_modify
        TABLES
          xt_eanlh_update = xt_eanlh_mod
          xt_eanlh_old    = xt_eanlh_old.
    where eanl is the entry in EANL table.
    OLD_EANLH contains the old entry line item of the Rate Category table and NEW_EANLH contains the new line item to be added. This is the crude way of doing this. But I didnt find any other FM useful.
    But this works.
    Hope this also resolves your query.
    Regards,
    Manish
