What happened to the tool bar & why did you switch my browser from Google to Yahoo?

When I downloaded Firefox 4 you switched my search engine from Google to Yahoo. I much prefer Google. Secondly, at the same time, my toolbar disappeared. When I wanted to print out a mutual fund activity confirmation, there was no means to do it. Unless this is changed, I will go back to IE, with great regrets. Photogranny.

You can remove the Yahoo Toolbar by going to Tools | Add-ons | Extensions and remove it from the list.
But it's not part of the original installation file. You might of got it when you installed something recently.
By the way, you need to update Flash. The version you have installed at the moment exposes your PC to hacking. You can download the latest version from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

  • What happened to the little icon that let you switch back & forth from mini player?

    In earlier versions of iTunes you could easily switch with from full window to mini player by clicking a small icon on top right of large window. iTunes 12 makes you use a key board shortcut...any thoughts?

    You open the MiniPlayer by clicking the artwork in the top central status area.
    You close the MiniPlayer by clicking the small X at the top left.
    The tool below that shows or hides artwork.

  • What happened to the tool bar/back & forward arrows?

    the tool bar and back/forward arrows are gone- how do I get them back? When I visit a subject within a site (such as craig's list) I can't use the back arrow to get to the site page

  • Previous page had this: Common Questions What happened to the Status Bar? t you start with telling us What is the Add-on Bar? How do I use bookmarks? What are App Tabs? How do I customize the toolbars?

    Don't assume people automatically know all your technical terms! Before you talk about, e.g., "status bar", it would be really helpful to show or tell us WHERE IT IS.
    Since you made basic things like "history" and "bookmarks" harder to find, I'm back to using "CTRL H" for history -- is there a keystroke method to get to the bookmarks?

  • Where is the refresh button and where is the bar at the bottom of the page that gives the loading status of the page? Why did you mess with something that was perfectly fine??

    I updated to firefox 4 and it's not as good as the former version. There is no refresh button, and I use that a lot. There is no loading status bar at the bottom of the page and I liked the tabs BELOW the page address.
    Why do you keep changing things, just for the H**L of it...

    In Firefox 4 by default the Stop, Go and Reload (Refresh) buttons are combined and attached to the right hand edge of the location bar.
    When you are typing in the location bar it will show the Go button. When a site is loading it shows the Stop button. At other times it shows the Reload button.
    If you want separate buttons, right-click on a toolbar and choose Customize, you can then drag and drop the stop or reload buttons and place them elsewhere. If you place them in the order "Reload-Stop" on the right hand edge of the location bar they will be combined again.

  • What happens to the mail in my iMac after I delete it from my iPhone? Will it be deleted from my computer as well?

    What happens to the mail in my iMac after I delete it from my iPhone? Will it be deleted from my computer as well?

    If they are both using the same iCloud ID (assuming you are running your mail from iCloud), then yes, the email will disappear from your Mac after you delete it from your phone and after your phone sycs with iCloud and your Mac syncs with iCloud.
    I use a windows phone, but it works the same.

  • How to change the default search engine? I accidentaly change it from google to yahoo, and I can't get it back. I changed my homepage too, but it isn't solved. Thanks

    dear, there.
    how to change the default search engine? I accidentaly change it from google to yahoo, and I can't get it back. I changed my homepage to google too, but it isn't solved. Thanks

    Clarification:
    I believe now you potentially lose all extensions, plug-ins when you use the new reset function, but you will let me know.
    If that is the case, your find corrupt file method maybe better. However, I reviewed the two help articles and there appear to be more files than just the delete search.json file and a possible search.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder. I am confused. Then I have to find the folders. I think help articles mentioned how to find the profile containing the files, but not sure.

  • Why did you kidnap me away from opening my home page and force me to your "introductory" pages that I did not want to see?

    When I opened my Firefox browser this morning, I was "kidnapped' and taken away from my home page and forced to deal with your introductory pages about the "new Firefox." Why did you do this? I already have a mother, so I don't need another one. If it happens again I'll mostly change away from Firefox.

  • How do I enable some scripts to run in some programs/websites and what happened to the status bar of my Mozilla Firefox 4?

    Well, first of all, I was tying to create a web-based computer game in Notepad in H.T.M.L., C++, and JavaScript codes. But when I tried to open the completed product, Firefox only came up with a blank page. What do I do with this? And also, I unwittingly removed the "Status Bar" on the bottom side of my browser(the one that always says "Transferring data from/to..."), and when I tried to bring it back up, I couldn't because I don't know how, since I'm new to Mozilla Firefox 4. If you could help me with these problems, Then I would greatly appreciate it.

    You can install the Status-4-Evar extension to regain some functionality from previous Firefox versions that was lost with the removal of the Status bar.
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" after you have installed the Status-4-Evar extension and drag the items (Status Text, Progress Meter, Download Status) upon the Add-ons Bar (View > Toolbars > [X] Add-on Bar)<br />
    Also check the Options of Status-4-Evar in Firefox (or Tools) > Add-ons

  • What happened to the scroll bars?

    Apple has gone and made yet another infuriating change to one of their crucial applications, i.e., Finder. They have changed it so that you do not see the scroll bar at the right edge except when you first open the window or move the right edge, or scroll with the mouse. Then and only then do you even see the scroll bar. The did the same thing with the Preview, and here it is perfectly obvious that this is a really dumb idea. You have a vertical colum of icons on the left, and a picture on the right. If you set your mouse scrolling to work well for one, it does not work at all well for the other. This is a fact. Reliance on the scroll wheel just doesn't work. They perhaps thought that everyone should be using their mice with touch sensitive surface. Perhaps there isn't a problem in that case, but it isn't an excuse, because not everyon likes the Apple mice. I don't like them at all. One of them has sharp edges, and there is something else wrong with the other one. I use only generic mice, and see no reason not to. AND, I am incensed at them once again for doing something that is just plain idiotic. I reiterate: it is just plain idiotic for them to have done this, and this is exactly the sort of thing that Apple does as a matter of recourse. They have got the idea in their collective mind that their purpose in life is to dictate to everyone else how to interact with a computer. It is an extraordinary degree of hubris, far beyond what I can tolerate. APPLE, PUT THE DAMNED SCROLL BARS BACK, YOU HORSE'S A$$ES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What happened to the Scroll Bars in Adobe Reader 11.0.09

    The help file (such as it is) says "Use the vertical scroll bars to move up and down the pages or the horizontal scroll bars to move across the page." BUT THERE AREN'T ANY SCROLL BARS.  I have gone all through the menus and cannot find any way to display the scroll bars.  They always used to be there when the page extended beyond the screen, but now they are gone.  The alternative of trying to use the hand tool to grab and drag a page is awkward at best.

    Hi N4AOF,
    Are you experiencing this issue with any particular PDF file or with all the PDF files?
    Can you check this with different PDF files .

  • What happened to the scroll bar in version 11?

    I have thousands of songs but besides that I like to listen to an audio bible. I use to be able to scroll up and down very quickly to find what I wanted but now I have to scroll using mouse wheel which is tiresome and ridiculous.Am I just not getting something or was a simple scroll function overlooked?

    Try this maybe it solves your question:
    Try this to bring back the "old" iTunes view
    Ctrl + / brings back the status bar
    Ctrl + s brings back the Side Bar
    Ctrl + B brings the Menu Bar back.
    Other handy shortcut is Ctrl + Shift + B it will bring back the column browser.
    All these keys are under the View menu option

  • What happens when the scroll bar moves to the bottom by itself?

    When I am browsing, the scroll bar moves downward all of sudden to the bottom of the arrow. When you click on the scroll bar to move the page back to the top, it automatically moves back the scroll bar back to the bottom of the page. I have tried reloading the page, going forwards and backwards, and refreshing the page but it still does this problem. The only way to fix this problem is you have to close Firefox and reopen the browser. Is there a solution?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions 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.

  • What happens to the data in apps that you choose not to backup with iCloud?

    Hi,
    I have a 64b iPad and a lot of the storage is used up with data stored inside apps. Some of these data stores are 10s of GB in size. Such as, I keep some videos on my iPad that I play with VLC player. When I upgraded the iPad to iOS5 and activated iCloud backup, it immediately told me there wasn't enough room to back up my iPad entirely. I turned off backing up certain apps, such as VLC.
    What happens to these apps? Are they still backed up during regular syncs with your Mac?

    when you plug into itunes you can backup to both locations (icloud and locally) just not a the same time. When you click on your phone in itunes you'll see this option
    click icloud then sync (will backup to icloud when you sync)
    afterwords
    click back to this computer and sync
    keep in mind that if icloud has a 5GB backup limite unless you upgrade it
    10GB — $20/year
    25GB — $40/year
    50GB — $100/year
    edit: forgot to say
    if you don't sync with itunes to the computer then whatever doesn't go to icloud is not backed up at all.

  • What happens when the movie rental expires while you're watching it?

    We rented a movie on Apple TV and it is set to expire in 1 hour. The movie is almost 3 hours long. What will happen if I start watching the movie now and we are watching it when the rental period is up?
    I read somewhere that it will allow you to finish the movie in this situation. But I've also seen people say it expires while you're watching it so you cannot finish the movie. Thanks!

    In the US after renting you should have 30 days to start watching but only 24 hours once you git play.
    It sounds as though someone pressed play and didn't watch in until the next day.
    Just try it as the clock is ticking - if you can't watch it contact iTunes store support via:
