  • How can i optimize my SEARCH ENGINE???I use godaddy.i contact them and they give me this conclusion:Search engines are not pulling up your other pages on your website because it is created with javascript. the content on the pages, (photo gallery.....

    conclusion from godaddy:
    Search engines are not pulling up your other pages on your website because it is created with javascript.
    the content on the pages, (photo gallery, My Recipes/Blog, History, Friends) need to be formatted to HTML, PHP or CSS. No search engines (google, Yahoo, Bing) can crawl//analyze webpages built with javascript.
    See if Apple allows iweb to create the pages in HTML format and ask how to make those changes.
    I spend more then 1 hour on the phone with them but we didn't find the solution...
    please i need help because like this nobody can rich my website...

    thank you

    The part of iWeb pages that give the search engines problem is the navbar.  That's javascript based.  One way to get around that is to create another blank page in the site that's not  included in the navbar. 
    Add a text based navbar in that page with just the other pages in the site. 
    Also you can use that page for creating the sitemap for Google at Create your Google Sitemap Online - XML Sitemaps Generator.
    Have you let Google know your site exists? This website describes how to get it recognized: Get your iWeb website found in search engines like Google Yahoo MSN and Bing.

  • Ask becomes my first choice search engine repeatedly. I don't want that one. I have removed it from manage search engines and from Tools Addons. I also get a box in FireFox at the bottom that asks me to reset or choose Ask again. I don't like FFv4 either.

    Must remove Ask search engine.

    Dig this cats. Go to your Mozilla start up page. Go to Google home page. Then drag the Google Icon on the left side by the search bar over to the Icon of a home on the upper right side and Google will be restored as your home page. I hate you Ask.com, you were like a leach!

  • Why won't any of my search engines work? Typing a web address in works just fine but when searching through google, yahoo, bing, etc. it freezes up.

    When trying to use a search engine, it is constantly "thinking" and eventually times out. All search engine's are doing the same thing.

    Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:
    * [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Template:clearCookiesCache/ Clear Cookies & Cache]
    * [[How to clear the cache#w_clear-the-cache|Clear the Network Cache]]
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    Check and tell if its working.

  • Using 6.0. Cannot stop the search engine "ASK" from loading. How do I get rid of it completely?

    I am using ver 6.0. I continually keep getting the search engine "ASK" as my primary search engine altho I continually either drop it down the list or even delete it! How can I permanently delete it? It comes back after a shutdown of firefox or a computer reboot.

    Hi
    I had this issue too after installing a couple of fileserve download programs.
    It is pretty simple to stop firefox jumping to this earch engine.
    In your firefox browser type
    about:config
    It will ask are you sure that you are going to be careful.
    Select yes
    In the filter bar type fileserve
    For all of the results that it shows Right click and select reset
    This will take your system back to normal

  • Somehow my laptop has a USELESS search program called Sweetpacks installed. How do I get rid of it?

    Somehow this completely useless search program called Sweetpacks installed on my computer. I can no longer type a search into my address bar! When I try, now Sweetpacks pulls up completely useless information that is entirely unrelated to the search. For example if I type "facebook" without including the ".com", Sweetpacks pulls up a generic search results page including "Face Cleanser" and "Notebooks". I want it gone! I want to use only Google. I have deleted the add-on in Firefox, and searched my desktop programs. According to my computer this Sweetpacks does not exist! I have changed the default search settings on Firefox back to Google, yet it still reverts to Sweetpacks. Help me get rid of this virus!

  • How do I get rid of "Ask Web Search"?

    How do i get rid of "Ask Web Search"?

    This sometimes sneaks in with a Java update, since it is something you have to opt out of during that process.
    This might seem like overkill, but I suggest a brief detour here:
    (1) Open the Windows '''Control Panel''', Uninstall a Program (or for XP Add/Remove Programs). After the list loads, click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help in smoking out undisclosed bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
    (2) Open Firefox's '''Add-ons page''' using either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Plugins. Set nonessential and unrecognized plugins to "Never Activate".
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable (or Remove, if possible) unrecognized and unwanted extensions.
    Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    (3) With the above removed, you can restore your own preferences. As applicable:
    (A) Preferred search engine. Change the icon at the left end of the search bar. See: [[Search bar - add, change and manage search engines on Firefox]].
    (B) Home page. These articles have more details on how:
    * [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
    * [[How to set the home page]]
    (C) New Tab page. There's a hidden setting for this:
    (i) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (ii) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (iii) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter your preferred page:
    * ''Page thumbnails (default)'' => about:newtab
    * ''Blank tab'' => about:blank
    * ''Built-in Firefox home page'' => about:home
    * ''Any other page'' => full URL to the page
    Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?
    Success?

  • In the new tab yahoo search page is opening everytime. How can I get rid of it and just get a blank page instead?

    whenever i am opening a new tab - yahoo search page is opening up. How can I get rid of this. I want a blank page to be open up instead of yahoo search page in new tab.

    This might be a feature of the Yahoo toolbar. Can you live without it? To disable or remove the toolbar, use
    Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions category
    After restarting Firefox, do new tabs become blank again?

  • How do I get rid of "Yahoo! Search - Web Search" that comes up every time I click on a new tab?

    How do I get rid of "Yahoo! Search - Web Search" that comes up in address bar every time I click on a new tab? I have to delete it in order to go to the site I want. Very annoying. I can not find it in program file.

    Got this fixed.
    I deleted Yahoo as a search engine.
    To do this: on the right hand side of a toolbar there is a pull down menu which contains "manage search engines". Select this and remove "Yahoo".
    BTW: the "Tools" - "Options" - "remove hardware acceleration.. " did not work.

  • Firefox 20 does not support FireFTP, so how do I get FTP access?

    FireFTP says it doesn't work with Firefox 20. When I search for add-ons or plug-ins that add FTP functionality, I find none. How do I get FTP access within Firefox?

    I have Firefox 23.0.1 but now when I try to use FireFTP I find that all my accounts have disappeared (says choose an account) but the accounts aren't there. I don't know how to get them back and there is no option there to add a new account.
    Anyone know how to fix this?

  • How do i get firebug in mozilla 6.0.2 version?

    how do i get firebug in mozilla 6.0.2 version?

    Firebug 1.8.3 works with Firefox 6.0.*
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firebug/
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firebug/versions/
    Version 1.8.1b2, 1.8.1, 1.8.2 was compatible with 6.0.* also but the 1.8.3 is up to date on fixes. http://blog.getfirebug.com/2011/09/16/firebug-1-8-3/
    Also this is one of those few Extensions that users tend to disable on purpose and then enable it when they want to use it as it can cause excessive cpu and memory usage.

  • I have quicktime player 10 installed on my mac and it is considered the (default) player.  How can I get my Quicktime 7 Pro as my default player?

    I have quicktime player 10 installed on my mac and it is considered the (default) player.  How can I get my Quicktime 7 Pro as my default player?  When I downloaded video from my phone, I couldn't hear the sound because Quicktime player 10 automatically opened the file and there was no sound,  When I opened the file in quicktime 7 Pro, the audio was fine.  I would prefer to have all movie files open automatically using my Pro version.  Any suggestions?  When I trashed the QT player 10 and clicked on the .3g2 movie file, it didn't automatically open with QT 7 Pro.  Instead a window opened wanting to convert the file to Flash.  I don't want that to happen.

    Try This...
    Highlight the file you want Quicktime 7 Pro to open -
    Goto File > Get Info or (CMD I)
    In the Get Info window, scroll down to "Open with:"
    Select the player you want to open the music file.
    Click the "Change All..." button if you want to
