The search function is missing from my navigation toolbar

I have the navigation toolbar checked under the View menu. It shows the regular stuff but to the right of the URL site name it shows a Wikipedia search function. I don't know where that came from but I want my general search function back.

There are two ways I'm aware of where toolbar icons disappear.
One is where you make the window narrower (icons drop off as the window gets too narrow to display them).
If that's not it then it sounds like the toolbar has been customized to remove it. In that case just use View -> Customize Toolbar... and drag whatever icons you like back into the toolbar (or drag off icons you no longer want).

  • When I 'Tab Groups,' the search function immediately pops up (and it won't go away) every time, preventing me from accessing my grouped tabs. How can I prevent this from happening?

    Using Firefox 5.0 with Windows 7 on a laptop, whenever I click the 'Group Tabs' icon to the right of my tabs, the search function immediately comes up over my grouped tabs, preventing me from using any of them. When the search function comes up, the screen goes semi-dark and the search bar appears - any text I type at this time is entered into the search bar (the search function works normally). If I click any section of the screen at this time the search function disappears and the screen regains color - but only for a fraction of a second, and then the search function comes up again, along with the darkened screen. Hitting 'escape' or 'backspace' produces the same effect. Is there any way to disable this unceasing search function?

    This is something you need to report via the Feedback button (or use the link on the Help menu).
    Firefox 5.0 is still in BETA and not slated for release until June 21.
    Reinstall the full version of the current release which is v4.0.1, download link at the top of this forum.

  • The bookmarks button is missing from the navigation tool bar. When I right click and select customize it appears and when I click done on the customization box button, it disappears.

    The bookmarks button is missing from the navigation toolbar. It appears when I right click on the navigation and click customize. As soon as I close the customization window it disappears again. I can no longer access the library to back up my bookmarks. Why did you change it from Firefox 3 where you could clock on the bookmarks tab and be able to backup your bookmarks?

    Actually the Bookmarks Menu button doesn't appear because you have the Menu Bar visible in your first screenshot. The Bookmarks Menu button should appear to the right of the overflow chevron on the Bookmarks Toolbar if the Menu Bar is hidden.

  • When an album has multiple artist how can you make them show up on an iPod Touch 4G? I can find an artist using the search function but they don't show up in the artist view on my iPod. iTunes shows them OK when you sort by artist.

    Tech support seemed to understand the question but had no answer. Why would an album with only one artist show the artist but an album with multiple artist not show any of them. The album art show various in iTunes. That makes sense but on my iPod I would expect to see all artists.

    Wish I did. I tried the group function but that didn't help in iTunes. The search function is the best I came up with. I can answer the question do you have susch and such artist. But I can't browse for an artist I don't remember exactly or have misspelled. Fortunately I don't think I've bought anything from iTunes that i already had. If you can't see an artist it's possible you think you don't have something you actually do have. Sorry, still hoping for a better work around or better yet a fix.

  • The "Search" function box doesn't find things that are there! Why?!

    The "Search" function box doesn't find things that are there! Why? Eg: It doesnt show all my Sent and Received emails, but it will find an email that I half wrote and deleted. Unsure why or how to explain more fully.
    I also don't understand if I type in "James email" or "J" into the search box and all the J / James stuff appears but it doesn't show the emails I know have been sent and I know are somewhere because I rang "James" up to check, but the search box shows random thing I am NOT looking for, even if I type in fully what I am looking for and test it by typing in full titles of things.
    It also doesn't store all my sent emails in "Sent" box. Confused! I'm not sure if the "Search" box just isn't up to the job or if it is broken / i'm doing something wrong? Maybe the email address I use isn't set up properly?

    This can happen sometimes if the cache is not cleared correctly when items are not deleted from your device.
    The only solution to this is to do a restore to clean out the cache file.

  • Is there a way to use the 'search' function outside the search menu

    Is it possible, to activate the 'search function' outside the 'search menu' on the iPod classic ? With 30000 songs and more on an iPod, it would be great, if I could use this option i.e. in cover flow, display songs, or display albums. This way, I won't get any blisters on my fingers, from scrolling from "A hard day's night" to "You can't do that".
    Thanks for your help !

    A couple of suggestions:
    1. If you just have a few items you don't want included when you shuffle then find them in your library or playlist, pull up the info on the song/book/etc (File menu, Get info option), go to the "Options" tab and click the box that says "Skip when shuffling"
    2. If there are a lot of items, then you may want to create a smart playlist (File menu, New Smart Playlist option) and set it up so that it excludes all the items you don't want. Then you can play that playlist on shuffle.
    Hope that helps!

  • I recently downloaded 6.1.2 and am regretting it...for one reason...the search function no longer works correctly. !!

    I personally and professionally rely on text messaging extensively. Since upgrade, the search function doesn't work correctly. It only returns partial results. This has never happened with previous upgrades.  All the old texts are there but it does not search the entire history.  If i compose new text and duplicate the recipients from an old text, it will bring up string...just cant search for it.  PLEASE HELP SOMEONE.

    I recently updated my ipad wifi only to the new ios 6.1.2 and initially I had the auto cover lock option which can be seen in the Generals tab, but then it stoped working!! Before the update, the auto cover lock worked fine. So after trying all the options, I then did a complete reset on the ipad and now its gone all together from the General tab!! I can no longer see the "auto cover lock" option.
    The iPad cover lock is for when you use a cover with magnets in it to lock and unlock the iPad when you close the cover or open it. Try running a refrigerator magnet along the sides of the iPad and see if that trips the iPad Cover Lock back into the settings.
    That is not the same thing as the iPad Auto Lock setting which allows you to set an allotted time before the iPad goes to sleep.
    You can try resetting all settings to see if the Auto Lock feature retinrs to the iPad.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. This can be a little time consuming re-entering all of the device settings again.

  • In OS Yosemite the search function in Mail, Finder, Spotlight- does not work

    MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)
    2,6 GHz Intel Core i7
    16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB
    OS Yosemite,
    Finder versión 10.10.1
    Mail Versión 8.1 (1993)
    In OS Yosemite the search function in Mail, Finder, Spotlight… does not work. Messages or documents with the search criteria are there and one could find them manually, but the search function fails to find them. Following advice from Apple Support (728965377):
    1. I applied an Apple protocol for adware removal (Remove unwanted adware that displays pop-up ads and graphics on your Mac); I had none, because I had formally utilized a similar protocol that I had found in Internet, actually an app that implemented automatically Apple's adware removal protocol.
    2. I rebuild the post boxes in Mail (Mail (Yosemite): Reconstruir buzones); It took a while but it functioned properly
    3. I re-install the System (OS X Yosemite: Reinstalar OS X); It took about 4 hours but there was no problem whatsoever with the installation.
    Afterwards I searched for messages in Mail, and documents in Finder and Spotlight, without any difficulty. The search function in all of them was working properly. But the next time that I needed to search messages or documents, an hour later or so, the problem reappear and a couple of new issues occurred:
    1. in app RagTime 6.5.2 (Build 1821), www.ragtime.de, the menu bar disappears (it is invisible), when one performs certain operations, e. g., calculating a value with a formula, whether it is in a spreadsheet or some other component (text, drawing, etc.). After touching with the cursor the menu bar is visible again.
    2. after reading an e-mail in Mail or copying an address, this is seeing as a floating object in the finder and over every application. There is no logical way to get rid of the floating object and neither copying or deleting or cutting it. It is not a big issue but nonetheless bothersome.
    3. In Mail, messages with Flag or in VIP contacts cannot be seen in the appropriate folders, only in the Incoming mail folder, together with other messages. It seems to me, this issue is part of same search function problem.
    4. The preview function within Mail does not show the attached documents to a message, whether it is in the IN, OUT or Draft boxes.

    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 and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try again to re-index Spotlight. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

    The search function in App Store, is not working in my iPhone 4, after upgrading to ios6. Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

  • PDF files are very faint and the search function doesn't highlight the search term when found

    I'm using Firefox 5 with Windows 7 64 bit. When I open a PDF file the file is very faint and the search function doesn't highlight the search term in the body of the PDF.

    Dear Peter,
    I met the following problem, and please help me.
    My English (not Chinese) operating system: Windows XP
    Version: 2002
    Before using RoboHelp 7 to generate Webhelp, I perform the
    following steps:
    1. Control Panel->Regional Options
    2. On the "Languages" page make sure make sure you check the
    box "Install files for East Asian languages".
    3. On the "Advanced" page select "Chinese" from the language
    dropdown list.
    Then I perform the following steps:
    1. Use RoboHelp 7 to generate Webhelp (my Webhelp project
    contains localized Chinese files).
    2. In the "Search" tab, input a Chinese character(For example
    "连接") and perform a seach.
    Result: Serching...(or 正在搜索) or
    No topics found (or
    未找到主题)。
    Expected result: I can get the result.

  • Certain LinkedIn functions are not working. Browser keeps on looping, for instance when using the search function

    I go to LinkedIn and type in a name in the search box, for instance "Peter" and hit enter.
    Normally, this will return with a list of people with the first name "Peter", listed according to degrees connectivity.
    Instead the web site never loads the next page. It appears that it keeps loading the page over and over again, but with no result.
    In the end I have to press back or use another browser (Safari) to load the page and use the search function.

    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    1. Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server. Any difference? If not...
    2. Clear Firefox's Cache Completely
    Edit > Preferences > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    3. If needed, remove your linkedin.com cookies
    While viewing a page on the site:
    Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Remove each cookie then try reloading the page. You probably will need to log in again. Does that help?

  • TS3989 Can you use the search function in a shared photo stream? How?

    Can you use the search function in a shared photo stream? When I try to search in the shared photo stream it goes to search in my photos.

    I'm not sure there is a solution to your question, other than to not keep so many photos on your devices.  If you delete a photo from photo stream, it will delete it from all your devices.  To keep them, first save them to your camera roll (tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll), then import them to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  However, given the number of photos you have, a much more practical solution would be to transfer them to your computer using an app like PhotoSync, which will select them all at once and transfer them over wifi.
    I'm not sure why you're seeing such a discrepancy in the amount of space taken up by your photos.  It's possible that something is corrupt given the large number of photos on your device.

  • After the most recent firefox update I lost the search function in hotmail

    After the most recent upgrade for Firefox the search function in my Hotmail account no longer works. When I try to search through my email for a specific item, I get a message, "It looks like there's a problem with Windows Live Hotmail right now. It should be fixed soon, so please try again in a few minutes. Sorry for the inconvenience."
    Also, when I load up my Hotmail account it pretty much seems to take over my browser. If I follow a link from an email to another website, I will often be pulled back to Hotmail...with or without a "hang" and I will get the "Warning: Unresponsive Script" message. It appears to be related to the ad bar that runs on the right side of the Hotmail page. It gets worse if I have more than two tabs open.
    I have a similar experience with Facebook. It will often pull me back if I go to another tab. The "Warning: Unresponsive Script" message will come up. often after a considerable "hang" delay. This also can happen if I am participating in a thread. Often, when I am typing it will hang, sometimes for several minutes before my cursor resumes functionality. It can take a very long time to complete even one paragraph.

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Clipboard_not_working
    Try to use the keyboard if the buttons on the web page aren't working.

  • Stack overflow at line: 1792 or 1788 when using the search function

    Hello everyone,
    My name is Thibault. I am a technical communications specialist. I've been using Robohelp html for a couple of years.
    I am working on the user guide of the software application developed where I work.
    This is a HUGE project, more than 6500 pages.
    We're two technical writers on this project. (This is an inportant detail since my colleague doesn't get the problem).
    I need your help because I have been having an annoying issue over the last couple of days.
    After the project is generated, I open it in the software, clicking F1.
    When I want to use the search function I have this error message displayed:
    "Stack overflow at line: 1792" or "Stack overflow at line: 1788"
    Do you know where this could come from?
    Furthermore, I noticed that this stack overflow only occurs on some words.
    I mean, it occurs for the most used words in this project.
    We have customers all over the world and over the last week, we've been getting a lot of feedbacks about this error message.
    I hope someone will be able to help me on this one!
    Thanks in advance!

    First of all, thanks for your answer RoboColum(n).
    Is the problem only when you search for a topic that contains Flash output?
    All my topics contain Flash outputs. I generate my output files on a folder that is embedded into the software.When in the software, I click F1 and the Flash User Guide opens.The search function works (or not) depending on the software version (32/64-bit).
    At what point exactly does the stack overview occur?
    We have two versions of the software a 32-bit version and a 64-bit version.
    The search function works fine with the 32-bit version.
    The problem occurs when I use the 64-bit version. When I type in a word, for example "unit", the stack overflow message appears. See below:
    As you can see, it looks like the search function freezes while the stack overflow message appears.
    And I never get this error message with the 32-bit version of our software.
    I also wonder whether you can search on a project that contains no Flash output. Perhaps you could try for us?
    What do you mean by that?
    As I told you previously, my Flash Player version is a 32-bit one.
    Do you think that the issue might come from there?
