When I go to a webpage it isn't registering in the address bar and firefox won't let me go back.

Another odd thing that has happened, Bing took over my blank page and had a searchbar on it, but that has suddenly disappeared, I'm not sad at all, but am wondering if it is connected.

* Make sure that you not run Firefox in [[Private Browsing]] mode
* You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing", possibly grayed
* You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
* To see all History settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"
You can reset the warn prefs on the about:config page via the right-click context menu.

    Yes, it doesn't work. I ran in safe mode. nothing changed. I uninstalled Mozilla firefox with only standard removal, no change. I finally uninstalled Mozilla with complete removal and reinstalled it, then it return to normal. Why does this happen? Thanks for your reply.

    Apple says that the Mac was supposed to be erased and taken back to the most recent version of OS X with which it shipped. You should not have any of the previous owner's apps. That violates the Terms of Use for Mac App Store apps.

  • When I add a https link to quicklinks, when I click on it, the (:) after https does not go to the address bar and thus the link is not connected. This is happening for all quicklink bookmarks with https:

    Question
    When I add a https link to quicklinks, when I click on it, the (:) after https does not go to the address bar and thus the link is not connected. This is happening for all quicklink bookmarks with https: Is there a solution?

    Try some basic troubleshooting.
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    *In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

    What do you mean by, "actualize"?

  • When i type the wesite in the address bar and hit ENTER, it seems to be not working for me; anybody knows how to resolve this issue?

    When i type the wesite in the address bar and hit ENTER, it seems to be not working for me; anybody knows how to resolve this issue? i have to click on the green arrow button to continue.

    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?<br/> ''A troubleshooting mode.''<br />
    You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut. Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.''

  • I have all tabs set to open with Google search, but when I open a new tab and start typing, the letters appear in the address bar and not the Google search bar. It didn't used to be like this!

    Firefox 9.01; Windows 7 64 bit;
    One of my set of home pages is the basic Google search page. When I open this, I can immediately start typing and the words appear in the Google search box.
    If however I open a new tab (white cross far right of tab bar) and start typing, the words appear in the address bar, not in the Google search box. Of course once I click in the search box I can carry on: but I'd like to make it start there as it does with the homepage.

    If you want a specific webpage (like the Google page) to always open when you open a New Tab, you can use the following add-on to Open New Tabs with your Favorite Pages:
    -> NewTabURL 2.2.3
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    * NewTabURL will not work until you set the page that you want to open in the Options for it.
    * click Add-ons > Extensions, click Options next to NewTabURL.
    Check and tell if its working.
    Not related to your problem but do the following:
    -> Update Firefox to the latest version 10
    * [[Installing Firefox on Windows]]
    -> Update All your Firefox Plugins -> https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
    * '''When Downloading Plugins Update setup files, Remove Checkmark from Downloading other Optional Softwares with your Plugins (e.g. Toolbars, McAfee, Google Chrome, etc.)'''

  • When changing "browser.newtab.url" is there any way to prevent the address bar from getting focus?

    When I change "browser.newtab.url" to about:home and open a new tab, focus is set to the address bar not the search box on the firefox home page. The same thing happens if i change the url to google.com or another search engine. Is there any way to prevent this from happening.

    Custom new Tab has a small bug if the start page is exactly the same as the new tab page. Then the focus of the start page is on the address bar. Just leave the "www." out in the startpage and use "www." in the new tab page then it works perfectly. e.g.
    Startpage: google.com
    new Tab page : www.google.com
    Now the focus of the start page is on the search box.

  • TB 31.4 when compsing a message, has introduced a spurious blank line between the address boxes and subject box.

    When writing a new message I used to see two lines of address boxes followed by the subject line. So, when sending an email to a single recipient, that persons address would remain on screen as I composed the email.
    As of version 31.4 the initial "Write" window shows a single address line, the subject line, and a blank line between them. The consequence is that, upon entering the recipient's address, it immediately scrolls up and can no longer be seen. This happens regardless of how I enter the address i.e. start to type, select from address book and hit ENTER or TAB, or indeed if I choose an address from the address book sidebar. (See "capture1.png")
    If I increase the space available for the header data in the "Write" window I still get a blank line between the address lines and the subject line (see "capture2.png"). Furthermore, the next time I go to compose an email I am back with the original version of the "Write" window, as shown in "capture1.png".

    You might want to drop the author an email and let him know. It is not a major thing, but something that would probably require only a minor fix.
    I have found him helpful, but slow to reply. He is always on holidays when I email him.

  • I can open Firefox v4.0b4 no problem, and I can bring up links that are on the google page and pages that are bookmarked, but when I enter a web address in the address bar and either hit "enter" or click on the blue arrow nothing happens.

    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.

  • When typing in a website after opening in a tab, the cursor focuses to the address bar and makes logging to things difficult, how do I change this?

    As stated in the question on any website I open regardless of whether it is a new tab or just a new destination, the cursor focuses on the address bar and makes logging in to sites very infuriating. Any help is much appreciated.

    Thanks for the help, it didn't help with this particular problem. I figured it out though, I had an issue with the AVG safe search. I had to just delete the file in the program files x86.

  • When I type certain letters such as h the cursor jumps into the address bar and sometimes this produces a list of previos searches.

    I use a Dell Latitude and run XP. this happened before and I fixed it but can't remember how.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
