The address bar and search bar do not function(no plugins/addons). How do i make them work?

I recently updated firefox and have a problem similar to what others have posted here. When typing a URL in the address bar and hitting enter there is no response. The major difference is I do not have any plugins or add ons or new themes. I ran combofix and found no virus. I uninstalled then reinstall FF. Didn't work. Then i went into registry and manually removed all FF files and reinstalled. Didn't work. I am currently using chrome and would be happy to come back to FF if it starts to work again. Any ideas guys?
Thanks!

Try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • When I use Firefox for Yahoo mail the tabs such as sign out, search email, help seem to be disabled. How do I make them work? Works in Internet Explorer

    There are a number of tabs at top of my inbox such as sign out, search email, help, etc. They do not work. For example cannot insert a name for search email- will not give me the curser to do this. When I use internet explorer these tabs do work so not a problem with Yahoo mail- must be problem with Firefox. Recently updated Firefox.

    SafeBrowser posted Recently, the Yahoo Toolbar and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause that problem. They seem to overlap invisibly over the top of the web page display. If you have either or both, uninstall or disable them/it, or see if an update is available that solves the problem.
    See --> http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
    I disabled the Babylon extension and Yahoo Mail works now.
    Thank you SafeBrowser

  • I recently got a new iPad and when synching it to my laptop I accidently clicked to replace all of my new information with the old. I had iCloud on the new one and there were many notes saved in it. How can I get them back?

    Everthing was replaced including the information under iCloud under settings. My iPad now states that I do not have my iCloud account set up on my iPad as on the old one I did not.

    Go to Settings>iCloud and set up the iCloud account you were using before by singing in with the same Apple ID.  Then turn the data you were syncing with your iCloud account back to On, and if prompted, choose merge.

  • T410s with Windows 7 and additional internal Hard Drive with Windows XP. How do I make them work?

    Hi Everybody,
    I have had my T410s for 9 months and I love it. No problems at all. I was a contractor so I could use whatever laptop I wanted. Now I work for a big company that issued me a Thinkpad T410 with Windows XP. Now the T410 model has a huge heavy battery compared to the T410s. An ex-colleague of mine used to have a T60p with 2 internal Hard Drives one with Windows XP and one with Windows 7, and he could boot the computer with the Hard Drive of choice.
    Does anybody know how to do that? I already got the bay and the Windows XP Hard Drive inside the T410s.
    Thank you in advance
    Nicky

  • Address bar and search bar freeze when a pdf is open in Firefox 4

    The address bar and search bar freeze when I open a PDF document in Firefox 4. I have Adobe Reader X installed.
    This means you cannot type anything in the address bar for that tab or any other tab until you close that PDF.
    Any ideas? Thanks! :)

    Oh it was a problem with Adobe's Plug-in. As per [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/804580#answer-167069 MrKoffee's answer ], I noticed that I already had Adobe Reader X installed but nevertheless I went to adobe.com to download it again. When I installed it this time, it said "installing updated patch". Went back to Firefox to check and problem solved! :)
    Ps. did not need to disable any previous plug-in or even close Firefox.

  • I can't use ctrl + a in url bar and search bar after update firefox.

    i can't use ctrl + a in url bar and search bar for select all text

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • I've activated a new iPhone 6 from the backup of the previous device and all pre-installed iWork apps got lost. How do I get them back? AppStore downloads are offered with a fee.

    Hi all!
    I've activated a new iPhone 6 (iOS 8.1.3) from the backup of the previous device and all pre-installed iWork apps got lost. How do I get them back? AppStore downloads are offered with a fee. Any advices?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Ingo,
    thanks for your help. Your hint didn't solve my problem but pointed me in the right direction.
    When I wanted to activate my new phone from backup I realized, I didn't knew the password. It was noted on a paper at home. So I activated the phone free cause I couldn't await coming home ... a new toy!
    Due to GameCenter I have two apple-ids and unfortunately I took the wrong for the activation.
    Back home I've reset the phone and activated it from backup. The iWork apps disappeared and now are linked to the other apple-id.
    I was able to re-install the apps from AppStore for free. But I don't think I can transfer the apps to the other id.
    Thanks a lot
    Harald

  • I have pages and keynote on my iPad, how to i make them work on mac air i have bought later

    i have Pages and Keynote, and others of course, on my iPad, how to i make them work on mac air i have bought recently ?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    The iPad uses iOS, and your MacBook Air uses OS X, which are different operating systems with different apps.
    iWork apps (Keynote, Pages and Numbers) have got two version: for OS X and for iOS. You already purchased Keynote and Pages for iOS, so you can install them in all your iPhones, iPads and iPods touch for free, but not in the MacBook Air, because the iOS version isn't supported. You have to buy Keynote and Pages for OS X in the Mac App Store for your MacBook Air.
    To access to the Mac App Store, press its icon in the Dock or go to  > App Store

    Hope you are backing up anyway, but be sure you have an up to date backup. Repair permissions in Disk Utility, then restart from the Snow Leopard disk you buy (in the above link) and do an upgrade (only changes the OS), not a clean install (which wipes all data). Others on here may chime in on their thoughts on how best to do this, but I've never had trouble over 20+ years doing it this way. If you aren't having crashes and strange problems now you should be fine. Please write back or start a new thread (you'll get more help than continuing in this thread which has printing problems in the header) that has something like "Need help upgrading from Tiger to Snow Leopard" that will attract more help.

  • I am Unable to Type or use Keyboard in Firefox 18.0 anywhere including URL bar and Search Bar. how should rectify this?

    I am unable to type anything or use keyboard to type in Firefox. I am using Firefox 18.0 installed on Windows 7.
    I am able to Paste into the URL bar and also the Search bar but absolutely not able to type in it.
    I have already tried the "reset" option but still unable to type.
    Also tried Firefox in safe mode with disabled addons but still unable to type.
    Installed a fresh copy of firefox after uninstalling Firefox and deleting the old folder "Mozilla Firefox" from windows. but still unable to type.
    Please tell me a solution to this.

    I'm not on a laptop so I don't have a FN key. But on my desktop F9 + Windows key appears to have resolved the issue for me. Thanks for the help!
