Search Field in Yahoo

Not too sure if posting this here is correct, but here goes. Might seem dumb but, when I begin to type a word in the search field for Yahoo, a drop down menu of history searches opens. Convenient but how can I clear this??
Thanks in advance,

Paul,
I am not sure where this information is retained for Yahoo, but try editing the "Other forms" selection in Safari.
Go to Safari>Preferences...>AutoFill>Other forms (Edit...) Select and remove appropriate form.
If that is unsuccessful, you could also go to Safari>Preferences...>Security>(Show Cookies) Select and remove appropriate cookies.
;~)

  • How do I add a yahoo search field to my toolbar so I can always see it?  It used to be there until a month ago and now is gone.

    how do I add a yahoo search field to my toolbar so I can always see it?  It used to be there until a month ago and now is gone.

    If you either updated to Mountain Lion or updated to Safari 6 under Lion then there is a unified URL address bar with the search. I personally don't like it either.

  • How do I set Google as the default search engine in the URL search field (now have Yahoo)?

    I'd like Firefox to use Google as the default search engine for the URL search field, instead of Yahoo as I currently have. I've tried to find a place to reset this in Preferences but can't find a solution. Would be very grateful for any advice. Imagine it's simple.
    NB: I'm talking of the left search field, not the right search engine one where it's easy enough to define.

    You can reset the prefs general.useragent.override and keyword.URL on the about:config page.<br />

  • Permanently removing Yahoo from search field

    Since the last upgrade I believe, I cannot remove the Yahoo search from my search field. Yes, I can temporarily remove it by selecting the manage search engines, but everytime I restart FF it reappears. Can you please tell me how to get rid of this forever! there is no Yahoo tool bar as many have suggested, just the search field. thank you kindly for any assistance. Someonezmom

  • Yahoo toolbar and google toolbar enter in google search, appears in yahoo search, like they are connected

    Yesterday the aps for my older yahoo toolbar would not open after loading the latest version of Firefox. I had to reload the yahoo toolbar. Now when I use the Google search field, and hit search, the same typed words from the google search field appear in the yahoo search box. Also the menu bar now has Yahoo on it. I would like it to go away.
    Thanks, Jay

    I visited Google's toolbar download site and reinstalled the toolbar -- now I can select from the Google search drop down menu as before. running Firefox 4.0.1 and Windows XP

  • How to search contacts using Yahoo Address Book

    I'm sure this is nothing new to many of you, but it was a great discovery for me today. I struggle with not having a contact search on my iPhone -- often remembering the company name but not the person's name. With my Treo, I could search the entire device including contacts, emails, etc. and find what I needed but we're not there yet with the iPhone.
    One way I found around this is to sync your contacts in iTunes with Yahoo Address Book. I then went to address.yahoo.com on the iPhone, logged in and up comes my contacts with a search field at the top of the page. The search engine always found what I wanted and when I go back to the bookmarked site, I don't have to re-login. I also can click on a phone number in a contact on the web page and dial the number.
    So effectively this is a one click for safari, one click for bookmarks and one click for Yahoo Address book and you have a contact search engine. This will be a good workaround for me until Apple hopefully does an update to include contact search.

    Unfortunately I do not believe this will work for me.
    But it is still a "Rube Goldberg" approach to a function that should be included with the contact list.
    I sometimes remember the last name, sometimes the first name, and sometimes I remember the company, when I do not remember the name, and...
    sometimes I remember what town the company is in if I can't remember anything else.

  • New tabs highlight the URL field; not the search field.

    My homepage is Duckduckgo. I often use ctrl+t to open a new tab and immediately proceed to the search bar. As of yesterday (and a massive headache for me), no longer when I push ctrl+t does it go to the search area, but rather occupies the URL area! I wondered if this was Duckduckgo, so I changed my homepage to other search providers, specifically Yahoo and Google. A new tab still focuses on the URL field, not the search field. I wondered if this was my add-on "New Tab Homepage", so I disabled it and went into about:config, changing the value of the new tab from about:newtab to Duckduckgo. It failed to solve the issue. This is a huge issue for me and I need to find a solution immediately.

    Well, I just got it fixed. I ticked the box that said to place focus in the URL bar and saved, then unticked it. Now it loads back in the search bar. Thanks!

  • I can't change my searchdistrubitor when I type and search in the adress field. How do I do that? Changing my distrubitor in the search field doesnt work for the adressfield.

    I can't change my standar searchdistubitor for the adressfield. And it doesn't matter if I change distubitor in the search field to the upper right.

    Change the default search engine in '''address/location/awesome''' bar:
    you must modify [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Keyword.URL keyword.url] in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config about:config]
    type in the address bar''' about:config'''
    then press the button''' i'll be careful i promise'''
    then type in the bar '''keyword.URL'''
    then '''right-click''' on it, select '''modify''', type [http://search.yahoo.com/search?p= YAHOO] (or other...), click '''OK''',
    exit firefox and restart-it.
    or find other search engine in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Keyword.URL Keyword.URL ]

    Hi
    In addition to this, we also put the trace on the application. During the trace analysis we found that the RFC: HRXSS_CAT_WD_F4_SELFLD_DEFAULT doesn't seem to get called.
    Not sure what could be the issue.

  • Issue with custom search fields in agent inbox

    Hi All,
    I am working on CRM agent inbox 7.0. The issue I am facing is like this:
    I have added custom search fields in inbox. When give a combination of standard search field and custom search field, the result is only based on standard field. The value of custom field is not considered.
    Is this a standard behaviour? Are standard fields given higher priority that custom fields?
    Any pointers on this would be highly helpful.
    Thanks,
    Narendra

    Hi Naren,
    Did you add custom field using AET? If yes then while adding custom field using AET did you make it search and result relevant?
    There is nothing like priority in standard SAP fields and custom fields.
    Please let me know so that I can further help you.
    Thanks,
    Bhushan

  • How to set focus on specific search field in FPM's search guibb?

    Is there any way to set the input focus to a specifc search field in an FPM's search guibb? I found that there is a godd way for forms by using the IO_EXTENDED_CTRL object in the GET_DATA function. But it seems that there is no corresponding way to do for search forms. Any other idea?

    Hello Venkatesh. Yes that code does work. First I tried it on a table cell that was already rendered and it did work. The next time I tried it on a table row that was being added and it did not work there. So I added an on after rendering function for the table and added that code there. That did not work until I added a delay (timeout) to do a context switch before calling the focus and that worked.
    Once last thing though sometimes when I call focus on an input field (actually in a table row cell) if the field has text in it already the flashing cursor is at the beginning of the text and other times it is at the end of the text (which is the desired way). It depends on where I click in the row. Is there anyway to make sure the flashing cursor is at the end of the text when the focus is applied to a field that contains text?

  • Suddenly can't enter anything in some blank search fields, dropdowns not working, and javascript popups freeze randomly. WTH?

    I noticed a few random things not working on my computer in the last month or so, and I tried everything I can think of to figure out what it is...still haven't figured it out yet. Some examples - I was on ebay, and the tracking number I clicked on from the "My ebay" page popped open a javascript window, but then froze the page so I had to close the whole tab. Then on Grooveshark, the main page comes up, but if I type anything in the search field, I can see what I'm typing, but at the same time, I can still see their default search message. If I try to enter something and hit search, it just gives me the warning that I'm being asked if I want to leave the page, it never searches. There are a few other times I can think of that I tried to use a dropdown menu, and they don't always work - they just look like they're being clicked, but nothing shows. Also not sure if this is related or not, but it bears mentioning - I tried to install Freecorder, and even though I tried both the toolbar and just the button for installation options, it doesn't show up for me to use it, and that's with adblock plus disabled. Also not positive my last update of Adobe Flash took, even though I downloaded it.
    I have adblock plus, but I've had that for years now, and it's never caused a problem or stopped me from seeing anything I actually wanted to see. My system was pretty bada** before this, and it's frustrating that suddenly I can't go everywhere and do everything I could before. Why is it doing this, and can I fix it??

    Meh...if I had started here instead of trying to research this randomly, I would have fixed the problem weeks ago. I just did a Firefox reset, and tried all the things I mentioned in the OP, and it all seems to work fine now. Well, aside from Freecorder, but I can make that work another way, I guess. Anyway, Firefox reset = solution. Yay!

  • 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 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.
