Webpage not highlighted on google search list after being viewed

I am using an Acer Aspire One netbook running XP. I do a google search using Mozilla Firefox 3.6.22 and get the usual list of search results.
Now when I view a website from the search list and then go back to the search list there is nothing indicating that I have viewed that particular page.
In the past once you've viewed a page from the google search list the underlined link normally changes colour is is highlighted to show that the page from the list has already been viewed.
This enables the user to keep track on what webpages have been viewed and which ones haven't.
I'm sure there must be a solution. I have the remember history switched on in the browser, tools/privacy window.
Can you assist please.
Thanks.

Do you only have that problem on the Google site?
Google is using a visited color (#551a8b) that is hardly distinguishable from the unvisited color (#2200cc), so may not notice it.

Sometimes when using the Google search engine, after using the Back button in the Firefox 4.0.1 browser, I am no longer able to click in the Google search box.

This problems has been occurring on two different machines over the last two days.

I think this may not be a browser problem but rather a Google problem.
I am getting the same problem with the Google Chrome browser.

Site not found in Google search

Perhaps a basic issue but one that's giving me a headache.
What is the best and cheapest method of getting a site found during
a google search. ?
Any words of wisdom would be hugely appreciated.
????

Yeah, but it's still not going to work if you've got your
whole Flash site
embedded into a single html page. Google asks you to create a
robot.txt
file in order for your Flash site to be listed by them, but
I've never found
any comprehensible specs on how to make that file. Anyone got
these?
The only thing I know of that works is to recreate your whole
site in html
as well as the Flash site. This, of course is an unsatisfying
pain in the
rumpus!

Lost My Google search Bar After Installing the Latest Updates

The separate search bar was very very useful. Some of us, as can be seen from these discussion forums
find it highly desireable
Apple Techs' if you read this here is my plea
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, Put the tool back.
Thanks

Yes, it confuses a handful of you. Just not the other 3 million plus users who downloaded it. Maybe tell Apple instead of yelling at we other users.

On google.ca, enter key does not trigger the google search action. I have to manually click the search button

Hi there. Recently I upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1. I don't recall if the issue occurred prior to this upgrade, but as of right now, if I go to my homepage of www.google.ca and type in a search criteria and hit the enter key, what used to happen of course, is that it would trigger the actual search and the page would refresh with any matching results.
This no longer happens. If I click the button labelled "Google Search" the search works. It's just the enter key that doesn't seem to register.
On a side note, F5 no longer refreshes my page, and I'm sure this worked previously. Now I have to click the Go/Stop/Reload button to the right of the address bar.

Do you have ''AVG Safe Search'' installed? It blocks the use of the Enter key after typing in a search.
Disable it by clicking the Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Extensions. You should be able to find it in there.
If the problem persists, try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.

Most search engines are not working, only Google Search works and I get 404 file not found error when clicking the links.

I have been trying virus killers, malware software from microsoft, I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it, I used the option to change all my options to the basic default installed options, I am able to search without problems using Internet Explorer on all search engines, Google Search engine works in firefox browser; but all the links give the 404 file not found error. Links from my Gmail account do not work either...giving me the 404 error. Firefox is much faster than Internet explorer however, this link problem makes me wonder if firefox is really any good.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Iweb site working great but blog not showing in Google Search

Not sure how to get my iweb blog to show up in Google searches. I am using iweb seo tool, and all my other pages on the site are searchable on Google, but the blog entries are not. It's been a month or more. Is this something that's happening on the blog pages only because I"m using my ftp and not publishing through mobileme? Not necessary that I have comments, but I would like the blog entries to be searchable. Thanks!

iWeb SEO Tool allows you to add the title tag and meta descritption for the Google entry...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Search-Engine-Optimization/Tags.html
To get the spiders to this info you need to give them a sitemap with all the URLs to crawl. Blog HTML files are buried in a sub folder so you need to provide the path.

On Mac, need to navigate to first google search listing by keystroke, the tab key works sometimesand sometimes the down arrow works, nothing works consistently

If I do a search using the google search engine, say of a phone number like (530) 335-5414 it results in a page with about 10 to 15 listing. Here is what the page looks like
https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=%28530%29%20335-5414
I am on a mac and I need to find a keyboard command to get me reliably to select the first listing . When the caret appears next to the listing I can press the enter key to open the underlying hyperlink.
I have had success doing this with the tab key and sometimes it works almost 8 times in a row. Then I sometimes use the down arrow key and it occasionally gets me there. IS THERE A RELIABLE KEYBOARD NAVIGATION TO THE FIRST LISTING ON A GOOGLE SEARCH RESULT PAGE. I don't understand why my keyboard only works occasionally to navigate in this way . This is very important for me to do this and maybe someone out there knows how to get to select the first listing on a page by keyboard that works.
Thank you very much for you

I've called the big guys to help you. Good luck.

Modify google search redirection after bypassing untrusted connection warning

'''The problem:''' my default google search is redirected to google home, i.e. the 1st search is lost, I cannot perform it through google search engine bar (to the right of location bar), and I can only do this through the web page.
'''How we got here:''' I was getting a "connection untrusted" message (see [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/This%20connection%20is%20untrusted?s=security+certificates&r=3&as=s#w_bypassing-the-warning This connection is untrusted] ) for some open tabs with google searches I had from previous sessions. So, I thought I would get rid of them by creating an exception for Google. Instead, every search I do through a bar is redirected right away to Google home page (ie. instead of ignoring the certificate and keep loading the page, firefox redirects me to www.google.com, this way cutting the search next to it).
'''Actions I've taken:''' I resolved the problem for the location bar by modifying the about:config "keyword.URL", by setting a string (say "https://www.google.com/search?q=")
'''Current status:''' However, this doesn't change the status of the '''Google search engine bar''' to the right of the location bar. In short, the '''"default"''' is still hurt and I need to trace it and fix it not to redirect.
'''Question:''' Where can I find and delete the redirection I created while dealing with the "untrusted connection" message?

'''Thanks!''' I found it and deleted it!
I'm now back in the "connection untrusted" situation, but at least there is no automatic redirection and I can work this out in peace...

When i click on firefox, i get a page that does not show my google search box, how do i acces it?

there is a red page in the way of google search box.
how do you get rid of the red page, and just go back to the google search box?

If you key into the location bar ''about:home'' that will open the homepage with the google search bar in the Center of it.
If that has a red box in front of it please take a screenshot of it and post it n your next message
* see [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
If the page looks ok then set that as your normal homepage as explained in this article:
*[[How to set the home page]]

First i open google search page.after seeing the results if i click in any site the site appears in a new tab.how can i stop this?

these days i face this problem.whenever i click on a site it appears in a new tab.how can i stop it?

The Google Search setting has an option '''Where results open'''. If it is selected, you can try deselecting that. If it doesn't solve the problem, please check if this happens in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode]. Safe mode disables the installed '''Extensions''', and themes ('''Appearance''') in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - the manual setting is '''Tools''' > '''Options''' > '''Advanced''' > '''General''' > [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Advanced%20panel?as=u '''Use hardware acceleration when available''']. All these settings/options/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme, option or hardware acceleration is causing issues. Disabling/enabling hardware acceleration, and some types of add-ons in normal mode may require a Firefox restart.

Can safari highlight a Google search word?

I am trying to find out if Safari can assist me when I am directed to a website by Google to find the search words in the content of the webpage. Some webpages are very long and I cannot find where on the page the item I am searching for is.

Hi iwolgca
You could use Apple+F keyboard shortcut.... then enter the text you're looking for. Use Apple+G to find the next instance.
You could click on 'cached' just below the page description on google's results list - This will usually bring you a 'snapshot' of the page from when google found it, with your search terms highlighted.
I imagine that there are Safari 'add-ons' or 'plug-ins' that may also do what you want.

Map does not show in google search results page

Normally when I searched for a type of business on google, a small map showed up beside the search results. Unfortunately, I did something weird on my mousepad that froze my computer and after reboot, the map box was gone. And even more unfortunately, I use the silly sync function so now, none of my comps are getting the map.
Is there a way to get the little mappy box back, or am I forever doomed?

I'm not sure how this could be a Firefox setting, but I would try the "usual" first:
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 Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference? If that helps, it could be that you selected to block that element in one of your add-ons.
