Search Bar and the new "Now Playing" layout

The search bar disappears after one time you try to search for something. This has been going on for at least a week with me now. Other people seem to have this problem, also.
Also, what's up with the new "Now Playing" layout? I loved it like it was previously. :/

Can't search now and it's ridiculously annoying. Not only that but no one from Spotify seems like they even care. No responses to any of the many complaints. What happened to caring about your customers? I can't even search for music on my music player that I pay for. No customer service number? Then at the very least be attentive to the only means of communication for your customers. Know what's worse than bad customer service? NO CUSTOMER SERVICE. REDICULOUS

Lengthen and shorten the search bar and the URL bar

I like to be able to change the size of the search bar and the URL bar. I hate not seeing the whole URL as needed. And sometimes, I want to read everything I type in the search bar. This is a non-negotiable for me and I have stuck with the 3.+++ because Firefox removed this capability.
I read that the toolbar was now customizable (haha). But there's no way I can find to customize it to MY way. I can move the URL bar ABOVE the search bar, but I don't like it there. It would be satisfactory if I could move both the URL and the search to a separate line, but Firefox, in its wisdom, has decided I'm not permitted to do that easily, if at all.
For me, a good browser works the way I like it to work. I'm never happy when features I use are discarded. It's fine when new ones are added on, but when an update feels like a downgrade to me, I return to the old program. (E.g., I still use XP) If I cannot make this work, I'll have to go back to an old edition that lets me work my way.

Thanks Ahnasr but that didn't work in the newer FireFoxes, although it had previously. That's why I posted the question.
However, I had planned to delete the question on here (couldn't find it!) when I discovered I was able to open a new toolbar and place the URL line below the buttons. Then, joyfully, I was able to also move the searchbar to the same line. And, I was thrilled to find that at that point, I was again able to resize both toolbars (although it was less necessary because of the space).
That solved, I am now trying Aurora and so far, so good. I'm amazed at how such a simple thing can be a stopper for me.
Now, if I could figure out how to prevent TABS altogether, I'd be really happy (I keep my WToolbar to the right and open all in new windows).
Thanks for helping!

I just downloaded firefox 5 and now I have no search bar in the top right. How do I get it back?

After restarting the computer when firefox 5 had been downloaded the search bar in the top right is now missing.

See if it is on the Customize Toolbar window. If so, while the Customize Toolbar window is open, drag it to the location you want it. To open the Customize Toolbar window, do one of the following:
*click Firefox button > Options > Toolbar Layout
*using the Menu Bar: View > Toolbars > Custonize
*HOLD down the ALT key while pressing the keyboard letters VTC
*right-click on a blank space on a toolbar or at the end of the Tab Bar and choose "Customize".
If "Search" is not on the Customize Toolbar window, click "Restore Default Set" at the bottom of the Customize Toolbar window and look again.

How do I change from AVG Secure Seach to Goggle as the default search enging bor the the search bar and when I open a new page?

When I load Firefox, the default search engine goes to AVG Search. I'd like to change it so that the default search engine on the search bar is Google. In addition, when I one a new page, the new page home page defaults to AVG Search. I'd like opening a new page to default to Google. My initial home page goes to the Wall Street Journal, which I want to keep, but want to change for the search bar and when a new page is opened to Google.

I am trying to resize the the lengths of the address bar and the search bar. I could before using a "line" between them to drag to resize. But this is now not showing. Any ideas?

There is a simple way to try and fix the Issue.
Try '''Resetting '''Your Toolbar to Default and Resize.
'''You can always restore the default toolbar settings by clicking Restore Default Set in the Customize Toolbar window.'''

In version 3.x.x I used to be able to type search terms into the address bar and the page would load, similar to Google's "Feeling Lucky" button. Now it just brings up a Google search for the terms I typed in. How can I get this time saving feature back?

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

If you prefer, you can also do this by installing the Browse by Name extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/browse-by-name

How do I delete the search bar in a new tab window so that I can have nine tiles instead of only six?

I used to get nine tiles when I opened a new tab. All of a sudden I only get six with a search bar at the top. All attempts to delete the search bar have failed. I have tried changing the rows and columns in about:config, and I learned about using Ctrl/scroll to shrink the tiles to allow more on the screen. That is a hassle compared to what used to happen. Is there any way to get rid of the search bar, or is there any way to get the nine shrunken tiles to come up when I click on a new tab rather than have to scroll? Thanks for your help.

Thanks, the add on worked great. I even made a donation.

I accidently unmarked the book marks tool bar, the tool bar and the menu bar how do i get them back ?becaus now only the tabs are visible and i cant access my features or book marks

i was getting to know my firefox so i accidentally unmarked the menu bar the book marks tool bar and the tool bar. so now only my tabs are visible and i cant get to any of my add-ons or extensions.
and even surfing the net has become difficult cause there is almost nothing i can do with a new empty tab.
how can i get these bars back. i tried taking the cursor up to the thin line above the tabs and the window border but the menu to mark the above mentioned features does not appear any more.
i tried restarting firefox several times but it didn't work. i even uninstalled and completely downloaded a new version of firefox and installed it but the problem still persists.
i am operations system is windows XP.

Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.
Hit the '''Alt''' key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark. 
The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

Can I change the Google search bar on the Mozilla Firefox Start Page to direct searches to google.co.uk, as it currently directs me to google.fr and I do not speak French (even though I live here!).

I like the Mozilla Firefox Start Page and I do find Google fairly useful (albeit that I have dumped Chrome for Firefox due to Google's constant badgering to sign-up to their social network "circles" etc) - but my gripe is that I am redirected to google.fr NOT google.co.uk (my 1st preference) or google.com (2nd preference). Yes, I am located in France. No, I am not French and most of the information I am looking for is contained on UK or US web pages. I found the same problem with the provided Google search engine in the top right bar, so removed it in favour of Yahoo (which I am not a fan of either!). Any advice would be gratefully received. Thx.

Many thanks for the prompt reply, ideato.
One of the reasons I abandoned Chrome in favour of Firefox was due to the "black band of doom" that appears on the top of the Google page - so setting up my homepage to google.co.uk just puts that back in the ugly spotlight.
I was, though, pleasantly surprised to see a Google search bar on the Mozilla Firefox Start Page (without the black band and Google options that I am just not interested in) but bitterly disappointed that it is Google.fr (due to my ISP being French).
I shall learn to live with Yahoo (or worse case scenario, Bing!)

A new tab opens up everytime I do a search on my home page, how do I stop this from happening? I've checked the browser.search.openintab and the value is set to FALSE, any ideas?

I just want all my searches to stay on the same tab that I already have open.

The browser.search.openintab pref applies to the (Google) search bar on the Navigation Toolbar and not to search bars on web pages.

What do you mean it isn't' compatible? What isn't compatible?
There is no limit to the number of iPods you can sync to one computer, iTunes library, or iTunes account. Simply connect each separate iPod/iPhone to your computer and configure each to sync whatever content you wish to.

I downloaded yosemite and the new version of photos and now i can not find my iPhotos

I downloaded yosemite and the new photos. now i can not find my iPhotos. It won't let me open the old app and it says that its not compatible with yosemite. HELP! how do I retrieve my old photos??

iPhotos has been replaced with a new app called Photos. If it completed migrating your iPhoto Library, all your images are now also in Photos Library(Events are now Albums in a folder named iPhoto Events.
iPhoto and iPhoto Library remain on your drive and work as before.
