In version 3.x.x I used to be able to type search terms into the address bar and the page would load, similar to Google's "Feeling Lucky" button. Now it just brings up a Google search for the terms I typed in. How can I get this time saving feature back?
The change between Firefox 3.6.* and Firefox 4 is how location bar search works. In Firefox 3.6 it uses Google "Browse by name" search. With the browse by name search, it performs a Google search and if there is a clear match it will take you to the site, otherwise it shows the Google search result. With Firefox 4 it just performs a Google search if you type something which is not recognised as a URL.
To get the Firefox 3.6 behaviour on Firefox 4 you need to change a hidden preference.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''keyword.URL''', double-click on it and change its value to the link shown below

When i enter a searchterm in the Google searchbox, a blue screen,
Cisco guest acces appears, asking for a password, which of course
i do not have. This problem does not present itself all the time but very frequently. I have to restart the system and then sometimes
things work again.
Also when i try to start InternetExplorer to download Firefox
again.IE crashes. I use Firefox 9.01. The problem did not
occur in version 8.---> [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
Check and tell if its working. -
I have an Apple Powerbook G4 with Mac OS X v10.5.8. I downloaded the new Firefox to replace an older version (v2.0, I think). When I try to go to websites via the address bar, I don't get any errors and nothing appears to be loading.
Try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem.

I could even search within websites this way, say by typing France wiki and it would take me the wikipedia page for France, even if I had never gone there. (Or sometimes, if I did a search with the term wiki, it would take me to a specialised wiki for that topic, even if I'd never been to that site before.
I don't really get how this feature worked, but can I turn it on for firefox 4?Changing that preference honestly doesn't work for me, I don't know why, and I followed your instructions carefully. But the add-on does exactly what I want. Thanks for your help.

I recently downloaded Bearshare.com which then overrode my Firefox "awesome bar". Now when I enter a search item in the search box at the upper right of my screen, I'm automatically shunted to this new search bar where I have to re-enter my search item and click return before it will begin a search. Previously, the Firefox "awesome bar" opened automatically together with my home page and I had the choice of searching using it or the default search box at the upper right of my screen. I 'uninstalled' Bearshare but it now continues to come up when I search using the right hand top search box , forcing me to use it instead of the search box at the upper right of my screen. How do I get rid of it completely so that only the "awesome bar" appears as an extra tab when I open Firefox browser?
First, some clarification:
* The location bar (often called the "awesome bar") is the larger bar on the left that shows you the address of the page you are currently viewing. As you type in the location bar it searches your history and bookmarks for matches.
* The search bar is the smaller one on the right. It typically displays an icon of whichever search engine is currently selected and may display search suggestions as you type in it.
It sounds like you are referring to the search bar rather than the location bar. You can change search engines for the search bar by clicking on the icon on the left edge of the search bar and choosing a different one. You can also choose "Manage Search Engines" to remove ones you aren't interested in using.
It also sounds like Bearshare might have changed your homepage in Firefox. To restore that you will need to open the preferences menu (click Tools > Preferences), go to the General tab (first on the top left), and click "Restore to Default". -
As I said, when I type in a partial search term in the Google toolbar and the drop down list appears, if I click on a completed term, it will not autocomplete it.
Mouse clicking wouldn't work for me either in the Google drop down box but up/down keys followed by enter do. I hope a quick fix is in order for this.

As stated above, when I would enter a web address in the main bar at the top of Firefox, the browser would go directly to that website (e.g., nytimes, or pcmag, etc...).
Now it goes to a search results page, where I have to click on NY Times, or PC Mag, to get to the website. It is a two-step process instead of one!hello, enter '''about:config''' into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''browser.urlbar.trimURLs'''. double-click it and change its value to '''false''' in order to display the full url with the http://-prefix in the address bar...

In the previous version of FF I could type a term in the address bar and it would auto open that website, now it just performs a google search. Is that a setting I can adjust or is it not available anymore?

I would like to format cells with time only. when I enter a time of day the current date is still in the cell which is not necessarily so. THere are no options for just date .
christine275 wrote:
... (this is a time worked by date and not always entered on the date worked)--
"Time" in Numbers is always "Time of Day", and is always part of a Date and Time value. "Amount of Time" is a Duration value, which may be displayed in a similar format to "Time of Day," but is a different type of value.
If you are entering the number of hours and minutes worked, format the column as Duration, set the units and the format in which you want to have the value appear.
The Date column will still contain a Date and Time value (Jan 1, 2011 00:00:00 in the cell shown in the example), but the "Time Worked" cells will contain only a Duration value.
Incidently, the Date in A2 was entered as "jan 1" (without the quotes). Numbers automatically adds the current year and the default time value, then displays the result in the closest format to what you've entered, or in the Date and Time format you have chosen.
The Duration value in B2 was entered as 3:15 (as displayed). Note that in the entry bar the duration is displayed as 3h 15m, probably to distinguish it from a similarly formatted (Date and) Time value.

Barry
