  • The Bookmark Toolbar will not place the bookmarks I save on the toolbar underneath the address bar... help!?

    I just recently reformatted my laptop and lost all of my old bookmarks, however i did back them up. when i restored the bookmarks, i was unable to put bookmarks under the adress bar (bookmark Toolbar)
    Help please!!! :(

    Check that the Bookmarks Toolbar is visible and that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is still placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar.<br />
    If the menu bar is hidden then press F10 or hold down the Alt key, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear.
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" (Linux, Windows)
    * Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" or other items that are missing in the toolbar palette or on a toolbar then click the "Restore Default Set" button
    If you have a problem to create new bookmarks then a possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Symbol in the address bar?

    If you look in the address bar right now, while reading this,
    you will see the adobe icon logo just before the "http" part.
    My question is simple. How do I place a symbol, that I have
    made, in the address bar for my website?
    Thanks.

    No need to pay. Don't know anyone who has. I've always done
    my own.
    www.favicon.com used to be very helpful about how to do it.
    Seems they've
    gone more commercial these days.

  • Hiding .jsp name in the address bar

    hello ,
    first i want to describe my problems.i have a .jsp file and i want to replace the .jsp name to another name in the address bar.
    i want to hide the .jsp name in the address bar.
    can u give an example code.then i understand more details.
    thanks

    I'll give you an example of how this can be done in Tomcat and in essence it should apply to any servlet container.
    Tomcat has a web.xml file in it's conf directory that decides the basic mappings etc for ALL webapps in this tomcat instance. Now, if you wanto to do this just for a particular webapp then edit the web.xml file for your webapp.
    If you want to call your files /something.foo all you need to do is map this extension to the jsp servlet for interpretation. Otherwise it will be treated as a text file.
    <!-- The mapping for the JSP servlet -->
    <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>jsp</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>*.foo</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
    You can add all the mappings you want. All you're really doing is masquerading the .jsp extension.
    Hope this is what you were looking for.

  • I have all tabs set to open with Google search, but when I open a new tab and start typing, the letters appear in the address bar and not the Google search bar. It didn't used to be like this!

    Firefox 9.01; Windows 7 64 bit;
    One of my set of home pages is the basic Google search page. When I open this, I can immediately start typing and the words appear in the Google search box.
    If however I open a new tab (white cross far right of tab bar) and start typing, the words appear in the address bar, not in the Google search box. Of course once I click in the search box I can carry on: but I'd like to make it start there as it does with the homepage.

    If you want a specific webpage (like the Google page) to always open when you open a New Tab, you can use the following add-on to Open New Tabs with your Favorite Pages:
    -> NewTabURL 2.2.3
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    * NewTabURL will not work until you set the page that you want to open in the Options for it.
    * click Add-ons > Extensions, click Options next to NewTabURL.
    Check and tell if its working.
    Not related to your problem but do the following:
    -> Update Firefox to the latest version 10
    * [[Installing Firefox on Windows]]
    -> Update All your Firefox Plugins -> https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/

  • How do I change Default search engine in the address bar, not the search window on the top right or by using about:config, doesn't work. Worked fine until this FF 8.0 update, now defaults to Yahoo 7. About to throw it in and use Chrome.

    When Firefox 8.0 installed it has automatically changed my address bar default search engine to Yahoo7 which is crap. I can not change this back. So when I start FF it opens to my google home page, when I type a subject and search the results are displayed in a Yahoo 7 results page, not google. I am not talking about my default home page or the search bar to the top right. This is still google.
    The settings in about:config do nothing.
    This was fine until FF 8.0.

    Thanks dmcritchie,
    Nice effort but that answers a different question about fixing the add-on Yahoo toolbar.
    Pernich and I want to know; If you type search criteria directly into the address bar and hit enter, how to change that search engine from Yahoo to Google.
    Otherwise I too will go back to using Google Chrome, even though I really like FF8.0
    please help

  • In the previous version of FF I could type a term in the address bar and it would auto open that website, now it just performs a google search. Is that a setting I can adjust or is it not available anymore?

    In the previous version of FF I could type a term in the address bar and it would auto open that website, now it just performs a google search. Is that a setting I can adjust or is it not available anymore?

    The change between Firefox 3.6.* and Firefox 4 is how location bar search works. In Firefox 3.6 it uses Google "Browse by name" search. With the browse by name search, it performs a Google search and if there is a clear match it will take you to the site, otherwise it shows the Google search result. With Firefox 4 it just performs a Google search if you type something which is not recognised as a URL.
    To get the Firefox 3.6 behaviour on Firefox 4 you need to change a hidden preference.
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # Locate the preference '''keyword.URL''', double-click on it and change its value to the link shown below
    [http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q= http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=]
    If you prefer, you can also do this by installing the Browse by Name extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/browse-by-name

  • I can not delete my history and adding new bookmarks. Upgrading to later Firefox versions and/or re-installing didn't help. The address bar still shows the web addresses of old and whenever I make new bookmarks, it's always gone as if it was never made.

    I can not delete my history and adding new bookmarks.
    Upgrading to later Firefox versions and/or re-installing didn't rectify it either.
    The address bar still shows the web addresses of old and whenever I make new bookmarks, it's always gone as if it was never made.
    Also, I have noticed that every once in awhile you can not close tabs you've opened, either by pushing on the X button and/or clicking on the mouse to close it. Although closing the window and opening it again (without closing the Firefox application) seemed to rectify the problem in the short term, it's becoming quite annoying.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == the Firefox is being used

    I think I have a solution.
    First, download the add-on SQManager. This should be included with FireFox, it is really good.
    Look for the file '''moz_hosts''' in the folder '''places.sqlite'''.
    Don't delete the file, just delete the information in the file. My file has over 3600 websites, which go back years!! I did not know they were there, but I was frustrated about not being able to get rid of them. They popped up every time I used the address bar. Clearing my history would not get rid of them.
    This is where they are stored!! I found that by deleting the pesky web site from '''moz_hosts''', it does not appear in my address bar anymore!!!
    I think that if I just delete all the websites in moz_hosts....
    Wa-la...History Gone!!!
    As long as you don't delete the file, just empty it, FireFox won't know the difference. It will just keep adding websites to it until you empty it again.
    Why running "clear recent history" doesn't do this, I don't know. You are doing manually what "clear recent history" is not doing.
    Please tell me if you see any flaw in this.

  • Can I delete the automatic links that pop up in the address bar? I don't really like the suggestions that come up as I'm typing a web address because they are usually not helpful!

    For example if I am trying to type in an address, the address bar fills in immediately with a prior-visited address that has a similar name (it thinks it's helping me) but that's not the link I want. Can I clear out or cancel this feature of firefox?
    Thank you!

  • How can I get the tabs back where they belong beneath the address bar , NOT on top ???

    how can I get the tabs back where they belong beneath the address bar , NOT on top ???
    they are on top, which puts the address bar at a variable position depending on how many tab rows exist - makes a moving target for navigating to across my dual 24 inch screens
    I tried your "solution" using about:config and setting browser.tab.on.top or whatever to false, but that had NO effect
    Maybe because TabMixPlus is installed?
    It does allow putting the tabs all the way at the bottom, but I don't like that either.
    PLEASE, give me the address bar at TOP with tabs under that!!!
    Also, I don't want FlashGot to be at the right of the address bar!!!

    why should we use yet another add on to get the tabs back at the bottom? Big mistake.
    Moreover, why make FF look more like Chrome? If I wanted Chrome, i would have installed it long time ago.
    FF 29.0 is NOT an improvement.
    Nasty piece of mud.

  • Url does not show up in address bar...and when i type in a search box, the cursor jumps up to the address bar automatically

    I'm not sure what happened. However, I can never see the URL in the address bar anymore.
    I go from page to page, and the URL shows only for a split second, then disappers.
    All the address bar says is "Search or enter address"
    I copy and paste a lot of URL links for work, so this makes it very painful and a hassle now.
    Where now i need to go back, right click on a link, and do "copy link location".
    Where as i used to just go up to the address bar and copy the URL.
    Also, I notice now when I start typing on certain search boxes.
    The cursor automatically jumps to the URL address bar as soon as I start typing. Which is really annoying.
    It will only do it once it seems....but its annoying when i try to type a search...only to see that i've been typing in the URL address box cus it jumped up there.
    PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Try some basic troubleshooting.
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    *In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''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 [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit 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 others with the same problem.

  • The google feeling lucky app from the address bar is not working, a program called vshare performs a search instead and I am unable to restore the original function. please help

    I do not know how but vshare, has been performing a search everytime I type something in the address bar that is not a complete website i.e. facebook instead of facebook.com
    this is very annoying and I am unable to uninstall vshare, I have even tried uninstalling firefox and reinstalling it

    I had this problem too, and just fixed it, and found a great website that helped.
    1. In Firefox type about:config in the address bar and press ENTER.
    2. Locate and double-click the entry for keyword.URL
    3. Set the value based on which search provider you would like to use for your address bar searches. Here are a few search strings you can use.
    Yahoo: http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=
    Ask: http://www.ask.com/web?q=
    Google: http://www.google.com/search?&q=
    ChaCha: http://search.chacha.com/search/query?searchwithguide=0&query=
    source: http://www.technipages.com/firefox-change-address-bar-search-provider.html
    And if you want the I'm Feeling Lucky search, instead of just the Google page search, then put:
    http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=
    instead of: http://www.google.com/search?&q=
    I just did that, and it worked for me. I had to go through a bunch of the different options, but I found one that worked.

  • When I send a group email why does the address bar not present the names alphabetically?

    I frequently send emails to groups.  Sometimes, for one reason or another, I want to delete one or more contacts from the list that appears in the address bar.  Why does the list not  appear in alphabetical order and is there any way that I can edit my contact lists to make it do so? It means picking through a list one by one rather than scrolling down a list to find a contact in the correct order. 

    Basically I suggest you keep using Eudora.
    Like most of those moving now, they are unlikely to be happy with anything else. But then that is to be expected, you have clung to abondonware for 5+ years after it's replacement. People that dedicated are unlikely to be happy with anything else.
    The Business standard and professionalism are not based on the Eudora way of things. I suggest you stick undisclosed-recipients: into a google search box and get instructions on how to do things for all the major mail clients.
    Of note Thunderbird displays nothing in the To field, even though the undisclosed-recipients: is inserted in the outgoing mail.
    <blockquote>
    I have tried using Bcc, and indeed, the recipients are suppressed, but not as a group. I have to change every recipient address from To: to Bcc: manually.
    </blockquote>
    Perhaps if you use the buttons at the bottom of the contact pane to add the list to BCC you would not have to manually change anything. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/addressing-email#w_selecting-the-entries-from-the-contact-pane
    I am interested however how when you added a list so it appears on multiple lines. All I see is he list name until after I press the send button and look at it in the sent folder.
    Most people use another address entirely in the to:, in conjunction with the BCC list. It verifies the list mail is sent by coming back and you can put whatever you like in the display name of the email address.
