Problem with location bar search

Before upgrading to Firefox4, when I'd type something in the box, Firefox would try to direct me to the location I'd intended. But now with Firefox4, it doesn't happen anymore, and instead, it shows a search result by Babylon Search. what can I do to fix it? I have already tried "keyword.enabled", but it didn't help.

Hi~ thank you for sharing this information. I followed your instructions and it did work. However, my "keyword.url" settings always automatically change back to another search engine website other than google once I restart my firefox. How should save my settings? else I would have to repeat this procedure every time I use firefox...

  • Has anyone had a problem with the spotlight search not working sometimes?

    Has anyone had a problem with their "spotlight search" not working? If I restart the phone it will work for a few days then not work again.

    It's more likely the OP's router.  I have a wifi only iPad 2, yet location services work just fine on my iPad.  If I open maps, my location is found quite nicely.  I have seen that some routers do not provide location services and I suspect the OP has such a router.

  • Big problem with status bar legibility in IOS 7.0.4

    Hi, i'm adressing this problem to Apple. I recently update my iphone 4s to ios 7.0.4 and i have found some problems with status bar visibility in certain apps. Ex: in Photo app, the status bar is dark and it is unreadable, same in Lockscreen in Emergency menu, in menu when someone calls or you call someone and in Camera app the status bar is black and overlaps with the text and option buttons of the app. Please fix this as soon as possible because it is very frustrating.Sorry for bad english :d

    There is no Apple hear in this user to user forum.

  • Location bar search/keyword feature doesn't work the same as 3.x

    In 3.x I could type anything in the location bar and it would "resolve" it. I could type "google maps" and it would go to maps.google.com, "yahoo mail" and it would go to mail.yahoo.com. And if it couldn't figure it out then it would do a google search.
    Now, in 4, if I type the same things I get "This URL is not valid and can't be loaded." I tried to disable the fixup feature to see if that was interfering but that didn't help. I liked it the old way when I just typed what I was thinking and it would take me where I wanted to go. I've verified this many times as I still have 3 at home and 4 at work.
    I also hate that the refresh button moved.

    I have this same issue- I have tried changing it the way you say to, but every time I close the browser it resets and I have to change it every time I search- I should be able to type in "target" and be taken to target.com- it says that this works, but all it does is search for target and it won't even do that unless I change the settings every time I open the browser- I never had any problems with 3.5 or 6 and I am going to uninstall 4.0 and go back- it doesn't work like an updated browser should- it is worse!

  • Single-word location bar searches are slow

    I constantly use my location bar to perform google searches, and have noticed that when my search is only for one word, the search results are not displayed for about ten seconds. This does not happen if more than one word is entered. For example, search results for 'mozilla firefox' would appear almost instantly, but searches for 'mozilla' or 'firefox' individually would experience this delay before the results page is displayed.
    Is there any way to modify this behaviour so that the search will be performed just as quickly in the case of a single word? Is this default behaviour? My keyword.url preference in about:config is set to http://www.google.com/search?q=

  • How to set location bar search independently from search bar selected engine?

    With FF 23 searching in the location bar performs a search with the currently selected engine in the search bar. I find the behaviour annoying, as I sometimes select different engines in the search bar if needed, but most often I just need quick google searches that I perform from the location bar wihout need to change the search engine.
    Is there a way to customise the behaviour, so that the search in the location bar points always to one engine, independently from the engine that is selected in the search bar?

    hello tadolo, you'd have to use an addon like https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/keyword-search/ to get back the old behaviour.

  • Problems with Menu Bar after recent security update

    Ever since installing yesterday's security update I have been having problems with the menu bar. When clicking on the blue Apple in the upper left hand corner, no drop-down menu appears as it should. This problem also occurs in the drop-down menu named for the program in various instances (Thunderbird, Azureus, iTunes, Finder, Firefox) but not in others (Safari, Adium, VLC). Sometimes the menus are simply truncated and do not include all the options they should rather than not opening at all.
    I have run Disk Utlity which found no problems and have performed a hard restart multiple times but the problem persists. Any advice would be very helpful. Thank you.

    Thanks for the help. I tried most of the solutions listed in the link you supplied, but am still having the same problem. However, when I tried to run the Tiger Cache Cleaner, I got the following error message:
    Runtime Error 4: Failed Assertion
    Location: /Volumes/RBUS/Common/MacOs/MacOSMenu.cpp:420
    Failure Condition: appMenu

    Thoughts?

  • Problems with scroll bars in list view

    Hello,
    I am using Xcelsius 2008 (Build Number 12,2,166).  I am still having trouble with scroll bars on my list view control. Other list views in my dashboard seem to be ok. It seems that this list view is not ignoring the blank cells in my excel file. I have gone through many things to correct this problem. I have added a new list view, I have copied other list views that work correctly but still no success. It seems that the "Ignore Blank Cells" property is not working correctly. Does anyone have a solution for this?
    Much Thx!

    Hi Yusufel,
    Please check the data whether the cells are really blank or having any space which could not be seen, etc.
    With best wishes
    BaaRaa.

  • Problem with Stacked Bar Chart

    I have a problem with a stacked bar chart in Numbers 09. My chart is a single series with 6 categories. All of the categories have different values. The first 5 categories display correctly. However, the last category does not display in the color its supposed to, but rather shows up as white/background instead of the grey color shown on the legend. However, the value label is displayed in the proper place.
    When I select other chart types (pie, regular bar, or regular column) the category shows up like it's supposed to.
    This is kind of annoying since I would rather use stacked bar instead of a pie chart. Is there an upper limit on the number of values it can display as a stacked bar chart? Is this just a bug? Thanks!

    Here's my result with six values in a single series. I double clicked the last bar to change its colour from the default grey (which was visible) to magenta.
    Numbers 2.0.3, iBook G4, OS X v10.4.11
    (Shot in the dark:) Try double clicking the value label, then changing the order position of this item.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • Problem with SCROL BAR

    In my form i have fields in tabelar view and i have scrol bar.
    When the query has been executed, I want to see all of data in my form and I offcourse must to scrol down, but when I receive a lot of data my action with scrol bar occure system block, CPU time increase and I must to terminate(with end task) the aplication.
    This happened, not allways, in Forms9i and Forms6i.
    Is this some oracle bug or exist some developers trick to solve this problem?
    Thanks, it's very imported to us!

    this may be affected by many factors assuming your form coding is good.
    you may first try to set the block's QUERY ARRAY SIZE to see if it helps. if you allows DML, then the DML arrary size too, but you need to balance them by many trials. In fact, if you get a powerful server/client machine, that helps too.

  • Problem with tool bar

    Hi,
    I have a problem with my illustrator CS5, the toolbar doesn't show sub-options.
    For example if I click the Rectangle Tool (M) button looking for sub-options (a sub-option is for example the Ellipse Tool (L)), nothing happens. I managed to use the Ellipse Tool (L) through shortcuts, but I want my tool bar to be able to display all the sub-options.
    In other words all the buttons with a little triangle at the button-right corner, are supposed to show sub-options, but they don't.
    I've consulted the problem with one of my co-workers, he suggested installing it all again -> I don't wanna do that.
    Please help.
    Thanks in advance.

    You have to click and hold the button. As an alternative you can alt-click it to cycle through the tools

  • Problem with full-text search in RH8

    Hi All,
    I've just upgraded from RH6 to RH8 (laptop running Windows XP SP3; RH6 still present on the computer but the RH8 setup program did not seem to have a problem with that: identified an earlier version was present, asked for its serial number, and then proceeded).
    RH8 is working just fine, except for one thing: in the WebHelp output I generate, the Search tab displays: "Error: Failed to initialize database".
    As a matter of fact, the generation details in RH8 output view state:
    Processing Full-text-search data...
    Finished processing Full-Text-Search data in 0 sec(s)
    This is the case for legacy projects that RH8 upgraded from RH6, but also when I create a project from scratch in RH8.
    Now, to add to my confusion, before buying RH8, I had downloaded RH8 trial version and installed it on a spare computer (so it would not interfere with my RH6 installation and projects). The tests with this version were OK (hence the decision to buy the upgrade), and guess what: there was no problem whatsoever with full-text search, neither on legacy projects nor on new projects.
    So before I go into the pains of uninstalling / reinstalling (hello registry, it's me again, trying to clean things up ;-), I'd like to know if anyone has any idea why this is happening.
    Just to be clear: The RH8 version I bought and installed was a new download, distinct from the initial trial download.
    The 3 differences between the trial version and the current working version are:
    Trial was on a Vista computer (working version is on XP SP3)
    Trial did not have RH6 present on the computer
    Trial was version 8.0.0.203, whereas the working version is 8.0.2.208 (immediately after it was installed, RH prompted me to install the updates)
    Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

    Hi All,
    Just for the record, IT people here were eventually able to have RH8 full-text search feature working on my laptop by:
    1/ Installing an XP virtual machine from scratch, and then installing RH8 on it (we created a small project and generated the webhelp output, just to make sure the search feature did work in that environment).
    2/ Using a software virtualization application to capture that RH8 install and deploy it on my laptop.
    The problem is not solved, because we still don't know what caused it (conflicting DLLs?), but it looks like we have a workaround - although certainly not a quick and easy one ;-)

  • Problems with location based applications

    I am having problems with all of my location based applications i.e. none of them work. It seems I can never be located by the GPS no matter where i am and i just get a permanently spinning wheel. I have deleted and reloaded the Apps (although even with the generic Maps App i cannot be located) and i have reset the phone Reset iPhone (but havent Reset Settings or Restored yet). I love my iPhone but this is very frustrating. Can someone please help ?

    Didn't work unfortunately. My Location Services were On so i proceeded to Restore. All went ok on the Restore but i still have the same problem. I have 4 App's that are location based and none of them work. Your suggestion ? Thanks for your help.

  • Recruiting problem with the candidate search by trex with questionnaires

    Hi Gurus,
    I am trying to search candidates using trex in recruiting by candidate_questionnaires but the trex does not show any result. How can I solve it?
    When candidates register theirselves on internet, they complete questionnaires that I have added in the apllication wizard.
    But the problem starts when I want to search candidates by the answers that they have complete in this questionnaire. So I select the criteria search candidate questionnaire, then I select the questionnaire and then the answer and I run the searh. I know that the results shown are always about others requisitions and not the one that I am doing the search. But in my case candidates are assigned in other requisition with the same process template so I do not know where is the problem, because other sort of search works fine. This is the only one that it does not work.
    In addition, I have run the report RCF_CHECK_SEARCH_SETTINGS but the result is that all the parameters are fine except that I have not implement the badi HRAHAP00_FOLLOW_UP_SES. May I have to implement?
    Moreover I have seen that when I select the answer to search, any operator (element of selection mask) is assigned but I have read that it is correct because I am using the search profile "int_cand" with the category "candidate_document" that it use in the mask search candidate_questionnaire.
    In conclusion, I don't know how I can solve this problem with trex? Any idea?
    Thanks in advance,
    Juanjo Garcin.

    I've already done it.
    Do you think this will help?
    I doubt that Apple will listen to us. Users with a problem that occurs quite a lot.

  • Having Problems with Location finder

    Since 4.0 update my location finder does not work on home network. Tried it on a public network and it works. Anybody else had this problem and did you find a solution.

    Many people (myself included) noticed that Location Services stopped working with the upgrade to iOS 4.0. The symptom is that Maps and other apps say "Your location could not be determined." even in areas that used to work. The problem is that starting in iOS 3.2 and iOS 4.0, Apple switched from using the SkyHook location database to using their own. Whereas the SkyHook database had the ability for users to add their own WiFi access points, Apple does not have anyway for us to do that.
    I just spent over an hour on the phone with Apple Support senior advisors, who initially wanted to restore my unit or even replace it (neither of which would have fixed it), until I found the news reports about Apples new location database. Eventually, I found a senior advisor who was able to track down the problem and admitted that, yes, since the switch from SkyHook to Apple's own database, many WiFi access points no longer work with location services. "Apple is working on the problem, and eventually it will be fixed, although there isn't any time estimate." I asked specifically if this meant that Apple was going to allow users to add their own WiFi access points, and she said "Yes."
