In the url bar is it possible to autoselect the first search result by pressing enter?

Whenever I use the url bar in firefox, often times the first entry in the bookmarks/history search is the one I want to use. What I want to do is just be able to type 'fb' for instance and just hit enter. It will then redirect me to facebook.com. What I have to do currently is type 'fb' (I have facebook bookmarked as fb) then hit the down arrow, then press enter. If I press enter without hitting the down arrow first, then it does google search for facebook, which is not what I intended. This is kind of cumbersome to me when 'fb' will always make the first entry be facebook due to how I have it bookmarked.

Hi dr.admiral37,
You could bookmark Facebook and add a Keyword (by editing the bookmark the keyword option will become available). You can then simply type the keyword (in this case fb) in your location bar, hit enter and you'll be redirected to the bookmarked site.
Hope that helped.
Regards,
Ziggy

Any way to have file size included in the first search in finder?

Is it possible to somehow show file sizes when doing a search in finder?
On Panther, it was very helpful to have the file sizes listed. This immediately revealed whether the photoshop files I was looking for were full size or reduced.
But when I run a search in Snow Leopard it only shows name, kind and last opened. Otherwise I have to also add a second search to add in file size.
Any way to have file size included in the first search?
Thanks!

Well, I wish I could take credit for knowing it was there before two days ago... but I dropped my laptop a couple months ago and it finally died for good on Friday, and I noticed this on the new laptop when setting up my Finder preferences.

Can you expand on your problem? Are you being indexed despite not wanting to be indexed?
You are almost certainly in the wrong forum as this relates to SharePoint search, not how Google indexes your content.

When I set up email for the first time, I had to enter a 4 digit pin. Since then, every time I switch my phone on, I have to enter this pin. How do I remove or bypass the pin so that I can switch on the Iphone without having to first enter a pin?

Go to Settings>General>Passcode Lock>tap Turn Passcode Lock Off, enter your "pin".
Edit: Are you saying you are getting a prompt for your email pin, or are you talking about the passcode lock that appears when you turn the phone on?

I did this -- Windows 7 and Vista 1. Select the Start Menu in the Windows Taskbar. 2. In the Search box, enter the following: %APPDATA% 3. Press Enter. 4. From the Application Data folder, navigate to Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox. 5. D

When I sign out of FF and want to go back in, I have to go through Task Mgr each time by deleting FF and then signing back in. I followed these directions -- Select the Start Menu in the Windows Taskbar. 2. In the Search box, enter the following: %APPDATA% 3. Press Enter. 4. From the Application Data folder, navigate to Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox. 5. Delete the file xpicleanup.dat. 6. Restart Firefox. --- but I could not find Mozilla Firefox under 'Program Files'.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== about a week ago

Where did you find those instructions to delete the '''xpicleanup.dat''' file?

Extending the Federated Search Results

Federated Search
I am looking on how to extend the Search Results in the Federated Search. Right now there is Rank Application icon, title and summary. The search service I have has 4 more columns. What would be the easiest way to extend the number of columns for the search datasource I have.
Anthony Chestnut

Prabhu,
There's no specific docs on this page, but you should be able to customize the federated search results page in the same way as any other portal page. Look for the general documentation on UI customization. You'll probably need to look over the code for the federated search page to see how the search is invoked. The Activityspace you want to customize is called "NetworkSearchAS", and the code is in com.plumtree.portalpages.browsing.search.network (in the portalpages DLL or jar).

When I enter a search in the Mozilla Start Page and press enter the browser does nothing. It doesn't bring in any search results. I use Windows Vista pack2

I just upgraded Firefox for windows to version 21.0
After upgrading, when I enter a subject to search in the search box (in the middle of the page) of the Mozilla Start page and press enter nothing happens. It doesn't bring in any search results.
The only way to navigate using the browser is to enter the website name in the address box at the top of the page and press enter. I'm running the browser for Windows Vista - 32 bits.
I tried re-installing firefox and I got the same result. I also tried re-booting after installation and it still behaves the same way.
Please help,
Thank you,
Hektor

he man check here
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Tried that. Also tried SUPERAntiSpyware, ccleaner, HitmanPro. Removed anything that was reported. Problem persists.
Chrome is also affected. But couldn't find any alternative way of not having Ask.com loaded as did in Firefox.
Internet Explorer was initially affected. After the Ask.com search engine is removed that problem appears to have gone away.
12/9/2014
Interestingly, yesterday afternoon the Chrome browner new tab no longer hijacked by Ask.com. The symptom was there in the morning and had gone away in the late afternoon. Nothing was done except a few days ago I blocked everything on that page. The problem with Firefox continue to persist I didn't do the same blocking on it. I am going to try the same and then use anti-spyware to clear away all cookies and see what happens.

How do I change my master password when the current password is to press enter (with nothing in the password blank)?

Whenever I try and change my master password I can not manage to. I got a new hard drive and the person at the apple store told me that the password was to just press enter (with nothing in password blank), and that I would be able to change it. Everytime I try and change the master password it says, "incorrect password" under the current master password blank. It has been awhile since then and I have moved so I can not go back there and get them to figure it out. So the question is, Is there anyway to change it without wiping my entire hard drive and starting over?

Why does using Google in the search bar (and only Google) not let me open search results in the same tab?

Hello,
When I use Google in the search bar, I have to open the search results in a new tab. If I simply click on them to open in the current tab, I'm inevitably redirected right back to the main Google site. This has only started happening in the past month or two -- I'm considering switching to Chrome after 5 years with Firefox because of this. Please help! It's incredibly frustrating to consistently have to remind myself to open all search results in a new tab. It's quite a waste of time over the course of a day.
Here are the basic steps:
1) I do a search using Google in the search bar.
2) As is supposed to happen, the search returns results in the current tab.
3) When I click on a result link, I'm immediately sent back to www.google.com.
4) If I hit back to try to return to the search results, I'm taken to the page that was loaded BEFORE I even did the search.
5) If, and only if, I instead right-click or Mouse3 click on the search results and open them in a new tab, I can successfully go to the search result pages.
--Thank you

Search bar doesnt launch a search when I press Enter key

When I type something in the search bar, it shows me suggestions. On pressing Enter, it selects the highlighted suggestions. Now that I press Enter again to launch the search query, nothing happens. Search query doesnt go to the network till I mouse-click the lens icon in the search bar.
This works fine in my windows machine, so I know it is a supported feature.

No, problems here on Linux with the search bar and the Enter key.<br />
Do you have the official Firefox version from the Mozilla site or a special Ubuntu branded version?<br />
Ubuntu usually makes a lot of changes to their branded version and it is possible that they have disabled the Enter key.<br />
You can try the version from the Mozilla site to see if that works better if you have the Ubuntu version.
*Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
You can create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile:
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

How do I get PDFs to appear in the site search results?

I have read that the BC site seach will show PDF files in its results - http://forums.adobe.com/message/5077569.
I have added a PDF via the media dowloads and added the litterate to a test page via the module {module_literature,a,}. I then reindexed the site, however when I search for something I do not get any results.
The site search is set up to search "Entire Website (including Secure Zone)",
Any ideas why this doesn't work?
Thanks
Dean

Hi Dean
PM me the site url and few details as how you are trying to search as it should work fine.
You can create media downloads and then in site search if you use keywords such as download name then it should return the result with links corresponding to media items.

In the url bar is it possible to autoselect the first search result by pressing enter?
