    Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine. mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar only and coloured wheel appears.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.
    If extensions aren't causing the problem, see below.

    Go to this address: http://mycroft.mozdev.org/search-engines.html?country=AU
    Item 24 lists 3 installable major search engines for Australia.
    You can also restrict your search in Google by including ''country:au'' or ''location:au'' or ''city:perth'' (for example) in your search terms. Example: ''city:sydney plumbers'' in the Google search box will list plumbers in cities named sydney.

  • Using search bar in itunes when not connected to internet causes problem

    I just upgraded to the newest version of itunes and I haven't had this problem before, but when I use the search bar in itunes to find something in the library (when I'm off line)I get an error report to send. Does the new itunes require being online even to look up something in the library or a playlist?

    I'm getting a similar problem, not the exact error message, but one telling me I need to connect to the internet to buy itunes, when I am connected, so I'll be interested in the answer to your question too

  • Search bar in iTunes 11 doesn't work properly

    Hi,
    I've been having this problem with the last three versions of iTunes 11 for Windows 7. When I search for something in my library using the search bar, with the option "search in all the library" activated, the results appear normally, but when I try to click on one, nothing happens. Besides, the little arrow with the extra options doesn't work either. And I also noticed that that little arrow doesn't appear anymore when I roll the cursor over a song.
    I tried to repair the instalation, and to uninstall and install it again, but the problem persists. Any thoughts? Thank you.

    Same problem for me on Windows 7, on iTunes 11 and now after updating to iTunes 12. Not very optimistic though seeing as there's apparently no solution after one whole year.

  • Where's the search bar in itunes store

    Trying to search for songs to download but can't find a search box!  Can anyone help?

    I just resolved this issue by doing the following (Please read the entire post before performing):
    Quit iTunes
    Open Finder and click Go > Go to Folder... (or press Shift-Command-G)
    Type the following (or copy and paste) and press return:
    ~/Music/iTunes
    Move the file "iTunes Library.itl" to Trash. DO NOT empty Trash yet (because if this does not resolve the issue, you will want to put this back)
    Relaunch iTunes and see if you now have the top bar in iTunes, including the search bar in the top-left.
    NOTE: Removing the iTunes Library.itl file can cause you to lose Playlists, and even cause your music on disk to be unrecognized. It is highly recommended that you back up with Time Machine before performing this task.
    If you know where your music is on disk (most likely still somewhere withing that iTunes folder, possibly just in iTunes Music instead of iTunes Media) you can still drag this music back into iTunes for it to reorganize and recognize the music. There is not much you can do about Playlists other than manually recreating them or quitting iTunes and putting back the iTunes Library.itl file.

  • How to select songs using the search bar in iTunes for Windows 8.1

    Just today (8th May, 14) I couldn't select songs when using the search bar in the top right hand side of iTunes. I patched it but it didn't solve the problem, however once I ran as administrator it did fix the problem. Is there a way to not have to run as administrator every time I want to open iTunes and/or is there a way to fix this problem? I have iTunes pinned on my taskbar so by default it does not open iTues as administrator. Thanks

    Hi,
    This should be compatible issue.
    Please try to install the driver in Windows 8.1 compatible mode:
    Make older programs compatible with this version of Windows
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows-8/older-programs-compatible-version-windows
    If you still find unknown device in your Device manager, right click to update the driver to see what's going on.
    For further troubleshooting, please post back the C:\WINDOWS\INF\setupapi.dev.log
    here for our research.
    You can update it onto OneDrive or the similar network device and share the link here.

  • Search bar in itunes store not working

    I tried to transfer my songs from my old ipod to the library on my new computer and that was an utter failure.  So today I am merely trying to purchase some new music for my new ipod.  The search bar in the iTunes library does not work.  I type in "beck" or "Rihanna" and I get a blank screen. Would appreciate some insight here.  Thank you!

    Strangely, changing the date on my computer fixed the search issue.  Bizarre.  If anyone can help with the song transfer issue that would be great.  Thanks!

  • Search bar in iTunes 11.1.3(8)

    I'm stymied. I'm using iTunes 11.1.3 on my MacBook Pro with Mavericks. However, I can't search within iTunes, as I can't find a search bar anywhere. It doesn't matter which part of the iTunes Store I'm in (overall view, Music, Books, etc.), there simply isn't a search bar. Can anyone tell me where it might be or how to access it?
    Thanks!

    While you are viewing the iTunes Store, you should be able to use the search field in the toolbar of the iTunes Window to search the store.

  • When I begin typing in search bar it quits unexpectedly after first letters out tap iOS

    after updating the iOS two times ago, my search function began quitting as I began typing in the search bar. After I type the first letter, the keyboard blinks away. It is so irritating. Now when I add a photot from my camera roll to an email, whether in i mail or through the gmail app, it also quits unexpectedly.
    ANy ideas? I am ready to look at the nexus 9 tablet. This update mini has been plagued with issues since I first got it.
    sadly enough... crowgrrl

    Hi Crowgrrl,
    If you are having issues with your iPad search quitting and difficulties adding photos to email, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPad -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPad as a new device -

  • Down-arrow icon appears next to search bar, and iTunes freezes!!!

    Hi Everyone,
    For the past few days, whenever I open iTunes a little download arrow icon appears next to the search bar (see attached image)  after about 1 minute, and then the program becomes unresponsive. Does anyone have any idea what's going on here? I tried disabling the genious, but it didn't seem to help.. Please help!!
    I'm using the latest iTunes, with 11.0.4 (4), Mac OS 10.8.4.
    Thanks very much!!!

    Actually I think I figured it out. I think I was using a faulty link for one of my podcast subscriptions that was messing everything up (Tiny Desk Concerts Audio Podcast)
    Thanks all!

  • Can't fine the search bar in iTunes Store using latest iOS on iPhone 4S?

    Where is the search field for entering search terms in iTunes Store?

    This is great.  It works if you open the iTunes Store app.
    It does not work if you enter the store by clicking in the store link in the music app.
    So much for integration and the user experience.  Feeling like a MSFT product launch!

  • No suggested webpages as typing in search bar

    If I type in the search bar say "update firefox to different wording", then change this wording to say "update firefox to different code", and press enter, the first wording comes back into the search bar - "update firefox to different wording", it doesn't change to the new wording I entered.

  • Weird White text at the bottom and in the search bar of iTunes

    So my iTunes (ver.10) somehow has a weird white colored text at the bottom where it tells you what your song count, days, and gigabytes in your library are? And the text is a super light gray in the search box in the upper right hand corner...what the heck? Does anyone know how to change this?
    /Pictures: http://goo.gl/Bs26I
    Thanks so much!

    Either the iPhone has crashed in some way to cause it to corrupt badly enough to need restoring to work (either hardware issue or software corruption) or it has been connected while holding down the Home button.
    Try resetting the handset (Hold Home & Power together for 15secs until Apple appears) and if it still goes back to recovery mode it means there's a major software issue or a hardware fault

  • Firefox stutters every 30 seconds or so on both videos and even when typing in search bars, is there a solution?

    So basically firefox seems to pause every so often for a few seconds and then continue as i nothing happened.
    For example, if i am watching a video on youtube or whatever then every 30ish seconds the video will stop and then continue. Another example is whilst writing this question, every so often the screen seems to freeze and then i continue to type and a few seconds later everything i typed comes up. It is just a really annoying problem and i was hoping that there is a solution to this. Can anyone help?

    There are a few things to try. It looks like your video driver needs to be updated. We have an article with some information and instructions here - [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Also you have many add-ons, each of which uses some memory and some of your cpu resources. If the graphics driver doesn't improve the situation you should consider updating to Firefox 13 and running the Firefox reset - [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]]
