On the start page, text entered in the search field is ignored. Why?

I am using Firefox 21.0, Windows Vista and private browsing. I can search as normal by entering text in another search bar but what is wrong and how can it be fixed?

Type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key to open the about:config page, just like you open a website by typing the URL in the location bar.
*If you see a warning message then you can confirm that you want to access the about:config page.
*use the Search bar at the top of the about:config page to locate preferences more easily
*preferences that have been modified and do not have the default value show as bold (user set)
*preferences that are user set (bold) can be reset to the default value via the right-click context menu
*preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean) or by double-clicking the line with the pref
*preferences can be created via the right-click context menu: New -> String, Integer, Boolean

If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

How can I eliminate the search field in the new tab page?

I just started using the default FF new tab page, and would like to eliminate the search field just above the tiles.
Is there a way to do this without using CSS?

Hi, the Add-on [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-tools/?src=search New Tab Tools] will do that. (It's fine in v36, but can't be certain about v37 though).

New itunes is destroying my life. It won't allow me to search. As soon as I type a single key in the search field. It freezes, then crashes. WHY??????

It won't allow me to search. As soon as I type a single key in the search field. It freezes, then crashes. WHY??????

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

When I try typing in key word in the search field, the letters seem to hang or are slow in displaying, causing the letters to skip over one another.

When I'm typing in the key words in the search field, there is a delay between my key stroke and the appearance of the letter in the search field. If I type at a normal speed, usually one or two letters are skipped and have to back track or start over. My key words will appear correctly if I wait for a letter to appear before I enter the next key stroke.
Many of my web pages are slow to load, or they time out.

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).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Apex 4.0: Change the Search Field to a Multi Value Check Box IR

I am new here, but hoping to be active :)
Well, now I am focusing on Apex 4 and I find really new things here. And even new order to develope needs time to get used.
Still, I am trying to change the Search Field to a Multi Value Check Box in IR. I have found how to make it in Apex version 3, but not at 4 any more.
Tutorials for apex v.3 write:
1.Click Edit Page 1 on the Developer toolbar.
The Page Definition for page 1 appears.
2. Under Items, click P1_REPORT_SEARCH.
3. From Display As, select Checkbox ans so on...
But I do not find any word "Items" in IR and especially P1_REPORT_SEARCH (I assume this should be by default). Under "Report Atributes" I find "Search bar" region, just there is no option for that. Is here any way to make search with checkboxes in v4?

Hi,
Tutorial you have check for APEX 3.x probably works still in APEX 4.x if you use classic report.
As I understand you have now create interactive report that provide out of box search features.
There is no option to change IR search text field to multi select item.
What you can do with IR, is hide/disable search field.
Then you create multi select item and use it in report query where clause.

I can't get the search field to work in iOS 7 notes. Help.

I'm told that swiping down to the top of the Notes page should reveal a search field for searching Notes. Doesn't work for me. Does this still work in ios 7. If not, how do I search in the Notes app now? Thanks.

Yes, the search field does work in Notes.
You can also use search your entire iPhone (including Notes) for something - this can be very useful
- in any normal apps page put your finger on the screen around the middle of the screen and swipe downwards
- you can then enter something to search for in your entire iPhone
Try resetting your iPhone to get Notes search back,
Reset your iPhone by pressing the 'Sleep' and 'Home' button at the same time for about 15 seconds or so. Your iPhone will then go through a reset / reboot procedure and will be ready for use within about a minute.
Don't worry about doing this as you will not lose data or settings.
Good luck and do report back.

When creating a new window in safari, using command T, the marker have not activated the search field. It means you have to click there every time. Changed after upgrading to Mavericks. Anyone knows how to change this?

Yes, you can do something like that. What you would do is create a button for each image and then hide them. When I do this type of thing I place all of the buttons on a template page and then hide the template.
You can then use JavaScript to copy the icon from any of the hidden buttons to the main button that you've set up to display the image. For example, suppose you set up 10 buttons named b1, b2, b3, ...b10. The code to copy the icon from one of them to the button used to display the image (b0) would be something like this:
// Get the icon from the b3 button
var oIcon = getField("b3").buttonGetIcon();
// Get reference to the b0 button
var f = getField("b0");
// Set the icon of the b0 button to the icon retrieved from the hidden button
f.buttonSetIcon(oIcon);
// Show the b0 button
f.display = display.visible;
This code would go in the Mouse Up event of the smaller button.

How can I get a query in the search field to open in a new tab or new window from the current window?

How can I get a query in the search field to open in a new tab or new window from the current window?

If you are searching via the Search Bar on the Navigation Toolbar, this preference can be changed to have searches there open in a Tab.
Type '''about:config''' in the Address Bar and hit Enter. Then answer "I'll be careful". Type this pref in the Search at the top.
'''browser.search.openintab''' = double-click to toggle to '''true'''

Opening a new tab in Firefox 16.0.1 the focus is on the address bar but then moves to the search field

When I open a new tab in Firefox 16.0.1 the focus is on the address bar for a second or so then the focus moves to the search input field. If I start typing something the first character fills in the address bar then the rest is typed into the search field.
How do I get the focus to remain in the address bar as per previous versions please?
MacBook Pro OS X 10.8.2
Firefox 16.0.1

Why is the search field so small?

This may not be a big issue, but I just wonder why is the search field on iTunes for Windows so extremely small that you can barely type the name of the artist and if the song or album is too long, it starts scrolling. There's an awful lot of space to the left of it, why not make that search field set as auto width so it goes almost all the way to the right edge of the middle display?

Many applications do a "fast save". This includes Acrobat and Word for example. The quick save writes new stuff to the end of the file, making the file larger every time even if you delete things. Some apps use "Save as" to go through and do a slower save of only the things still used. I don;t actually know if InDesign works this way but it's quite likely. Fast save also has the advantage that it's much less likely to corrupt the file you are overwriting.

Hint in the search field

Hi,
It is a general technical question.
I’m looking to find where the web page is keeping the
hint for the search field.
The web application have DB enabled for the cookies (CDATA,
CGLOBAL) where the session id’s are saved, but in the web
page for the search field it is opening up the hint list box, which
contain all the typed search keywords.
Where can I find it, where I need to look for those keywords,
where it’s keeping it?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

How do you erase your history on the search field?

How do you erase your history on the search field ( the first page you swipe to, on the left)?

Ah, I understand now. You don't want to erase the search history. You want to prevent search from accessing old data. The only way to do that is to restore the phone as new.

On the start page, text entered in the search field is ignored. Why?
