I used to be able to type in things in the url bar and scearch things, and not I can't help?

I used to be able to type in keywords in the URL bar and it would automaticly do a google search on it. Now it doesn't.
I've tried everything,
please help I want my keyword search back.

Sorry, but I tired all of those steps. And it didn't work.
I have even reinstalled firefox.
Still nothing.

Has anyone downloaded Yosemite and found that there are no ore scroll bars? I have to move the window (of any window, Skype window, browser window etc.) in order to find the scroll bar and then it disappears so fast I can't even use it.

Not sure why that was unchecked but good to know!
Apple's new default (since at least a couple of OS releases back) is to have it off so OS X matches the behavior of an iPhone or iPad.
I almost never need a scroll bar, and when I do, I just move over to the edge of the window when scrolling and a larger scroll bar appears.
Yes, for the most part, users don't really need the scroll bar. That's what the scroll wheel on almost all mice is for. Saves the trip over to bar to physically grab and move it. But, I do like it on all the time regardless. That way (especially with a long article) I can just take a quick glance over to the bar to see about where I am on the page (a third of the way down? halfway?). Otherwise, I have to move the page just to make it appear to give me the same information.

What do the globe and triangle with exclamation point mean on the URL bar and why do they sometimes change while surfing a page?

I have always about this, as I've seen these more than once along multiple versions of Firefox. I'm well aware that the lock means the site is 'verified' though I don't know exactly what that entails. More recently, I've noticed that many websites either have the lock or else the globe with the markings on it which says that the connection to the site in question is 'unencrypted', but I don't know what that means. Sometimes this will change between pages on the same website. What I find stranger is that sometimes a a single page on one site will go from the lock to the triangle with the exclamation point in it. Now from what I can tell, it means something similar to the globe, as they seem to both state the same basic thing, that the website doesn't supply identity information and the connection isn't encrypted. What I want to know is how and why this happens, and sometimes even while still on the same page. I've encountered this on three different versions of firefox. The 24 esr, 28.0, and version 34. (Not all on one computer, mind. Though I believe it's possible to have multiple instances of Firefox on the same machine as I know someone mentioned being able to do that on another thread and I'd love to know how that's done if anyone can answer it.) These versions of firefox were on 8.1, and two distinct versions of XP from two different machines. Is this an odd glitch, or is something else going on there and if so, how does one fix it? So far it's happened to me twice on my own computer, once on a fiction website, and as of tonight, once on youtube. On the former, the switch happened on a single page, while on Youtube it changed from one page on the search bar to the actual channel of something in question and back again. Closing out the tab and doing a quick clearing of history seemed to work fine on youtube. The fiction website, not so much, though I haven't seen the triangle thing come back again, as everything there seems to be the globe. So far anyway. However it has come up before on various computers in the past that I've used with various firefox versions, as I've said. Can anyone explain what this is and how to fix it if it is indeed a problem?

<blockquote>
The green padlock means your connection is HTTPS (encrypted) and the certificate identifies a particular site operator. Certificate issuers demand special verification for the Extended Validation (EVSSL) certificate that generates a green padlock.
The gray padlock means your connection is HTTPS (encrypted) but the certificate cannot establish the operator of the site one way or another. No special identification is required to get this certificate.
The exclamation point triangle symbols may indicate that the connection is partially encrypted -- some content is the page was sent over an open connection -- or recently it may indicate that the site uses such easily cracked encryption that you should treat it as providing no protection.
And the point of all this is?! Simply this: if your web traffic is ''not encrypted'', it can be read by others. That's why login pages and sites dealing in your personal or sensitive information should always show a padlock in the address bar. If it's not there, be concerned.
If a normally secure site suddenly shows a mixed content icon, try reloading the page (Ctrl+r or to re-request fresh copies of cached files use Ctrl+Shift+r).
</blockquote>
As it happens, I have tried the refresh thing. It doesn't always work on sites where this sudden changeover occurs. The weird thing is that, again, this happens at random and I've seen it occur over multiple versions of firefox, past and present, so it's not just relegated to just the three main ones I have most recently seen it on.
Now what makes this even stranger is that I have seen a few pages on the fiction website (www.fimfiction.net to be specific) where the grey padlock at the very least shows up on a page, but then suddenly will go to the triangle. Not all of these pages have mixed content or even any content at all beyond simple text. A few have pictures or clickable links, but I usually avoid clicking on the links if I don't know and trust the website. More recently though, the near-entirety of the site has gone to the globe, when before it was the grey padlock. I think the one thing that remains padlocked is its login section. Is it just that the website needs to update its certificates? If so, I can probably just send the site runner a message about that.
I dunno what to do with youtube when it shows up though other than just closing out the tab it's on, clearing my browser history, and reopening the site. It happens rarely with youtube, but it's not unheard of, and it follows along every page on the site once it pops up in one page at all until I shut down that tab. And this is a multiple version thing. These are the two sites where I encounter the issue the most as it's one of only a handful of websites I go to aside from an image gallery which is typically very good about safety. Or as much as it can be, at any rate. The only other site I frequent, www.fanfiction.net (probably the oldest fiction website still active today, and not to be confused with fimfiction) has the grey padlock at all times, aside from when I log into the site. I've used the https: prefix most times when going to a site the first time, and firefox has typically then used that prefix anytime I just enter the general website address in the URL bar, but sometimes it doesn't. Is that partially responsible for why I have seen the padlock switch to the triangle sometimes? I know the link that cor-el posted says that by default from version 16 up, mixed content is blocked by default and I don't think I've ever touched that in the options section of the tools, so what exactly do I do here? Just ignore it, or just keep hitting refresh or what? It doesn't happen all the time, after all, but it does still get annoying.

How can I display the URL bar and bookmarks bar when I have the addons page opened?

It seems counter-intuitive to me that the Firefox addons page does not have the same toolbars that other tabs have, and I have not found an option to add them back in (or an addon to fix it). Instead of being able to enter a URL directly from the addons page or click a bookmark, I must navigate away from the tab before I can go anywhere else. Additionally, it graphically looks out of place when I shift through tabs and most of the toolbars disappear for a second as I move over the addons tab.
Some other utilities that use their own pages manage to preserve the toolbar customization without removing it completely, so I'm wondering if there's a way for the addons page to do it as well.
An example of another utility that has its own page without removing the toolbars is the Download Manager Tweak addon. One of its options allows the user to open their download page as a tab, which also contains the toolbar customization of normal, browser tabs.
Thanks in advance!

Just for reference:
The solution to press a hotkey to move the text focus to a hidden navigation item (e.g. the URL bar or the search bar) was only a temporary fix, and only worked for Ctrl+K (search bar, maybe ctrl+E too but I didn't test it).
The problem didn't really bug me all too much until tonight, so I installed the Stylish script from the StackOverflow link above and the problem is solved now.

I unchecked the url bar and i cant get it back. i need help!!

i unchecked the tool bar button the i was fooling around and unchecked the url bar button...

View > Toolbars - Navigation Toolbar = click on it so that it has a check-mark

LabVIEW 8.5.1 executable opens on the task bar and then immediately disappears.

I have been using LabVIEW 8.5.1 for some time now and built several executables but now I have 2 executables that do not work on machines that I needed to install LabVIEW Runtime 8.5.1.
I installed the executable (which works fine on my development machine) on another computer. It wouldn't run because I didn't have LabVIEW Runtime 8.5.1. So I then installed LabVIEW Runtime 8.5.1, but I don't see it in the installed programs. I now try running my executable again and it does open momentarily (I can see it in the task bar) but then it immediately closes.
I have since tried thsi with a completely different executable on a completely different machine that also needed LabVIEW Runtime 8.5.1 and teh same thing happens.
Any thoughts on why this is happening?

I don't know why it works by installing the device drivers but it does. It doesn't make sense to me either. It worked on 2 different executables which basically both read file, use graphs, do some simple math calculations and write an output.
I don't understand why couldn't the application builder know which packages are necessary for building an executable. The builder already knows the list of LabVIEW VIs I am using. I am sure some of those VIs are linked to some package. For example, one of the packages says it is needed for 3D graphs.
Thanks for your help, though.

Hi. On the buttons labeled Back, Forward, Reload, Stop, and Home on the top of Firefox page used to be all right beside each other on the left, followed by the Address Bar and then the Search Bar.

However, I wanted to try Firefox Beta 4 but didn't like it, especially since I'd lose all my add-ons! So i have Firefox 3.6.13, but now my bar at the top is Back, Forward, then Address Bar, the Reload, Stop, Search Bar, and then Home. How do I get it the way it was before?! Please help!
I also had a buttong for AiOS (All-in-One-Side Bar) which I really like and now it gone! I cant find it in the preferences either! Please help. I would insert images to help but I guess I cant do that here.

Thank you SO much! That completely solved all the issues! You've made my day! Thanks!

I am unable to find the Firefox button referred to in the following: At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button and then select Options

Every instruction Mozilla offers to find or to do something contains a term or a phrase that is indeciphrable.
I have been trying to change "Cookie Settings" so of course Mozilla advises me to click the Mozilla button at the top of the page. And of course there is no Mozilla button at the top of the page. Then after wading through Mozilla's arcane and moronic help sections I end up at the following:
Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar.
Why don't I see it? (the Firefox button)
Apparently the Firefox button is a new feature added in Firefox 4 to replace the Menu Bar. The menu bar is displayed instead of the Firefox button to make Firefox look like other Windows XP programs. Windows XP? Are you kidding me? Windows XP. Earth to Mozilla: Have you heard of Windows 8 or Windows 8.1?
Then your instructions go on to refer to Windows Vista and Windows 7. JFC!
Then, under "How to get it?" Mozilla offers the following gem:
Right click on an empty section of the "Tab Strip" and uncheck "Menu Bar" om the pop-up menu.
WHAT IS A TAB STRIP; and WHERE IS THE TAB STRIP? Again, JFC!
Since these instructions refer to Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7, apparently these instructions haven't been upgraded for more than 2 years. No wonder Mozilla is a non-profit organization. There is no way that this organization could ever be profitable under any other structure.

I followed the instructions I read in a post to shutdown IPad holding the sleep button down until red arrow appeared. The slide arrow and then restart with the sleep button. Well, now nothing happens when I press this button to start IPad.

I have two problems. The most pressing is that I was following a suggestion to restart my IPad by turning off, sliding red arrow, wait for Apple symbol. I now see the apple but alson the little marks that go around when it is working but they are frozen and my home key does not do anything and no icons appear.

Thank you so much. This worked perfectly and you taught me something I didn't know. The other question I had was that I am in a home with wifi and my ipad connected to the internet without a problem. We then left for about a week and when I returned to this house I no longer can connect to the internet. I'm not sure if it is okay to ask you another question or must I post the question. Also, I am not sure how to five you the 10 points for the correct answer. I'm very new at this process. Thank you so much for helping me.

In Firefox 3, I could type history search terms in the URL bar and pressing enter would take me straight there, bypassing Google. How can I get 4 to do this?

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.

New tabs suddenly begin to open with "wleTab" in the URL bar , and the only way to stop them seems to be restarting Firefox. What's going on?

This doesn't happen completely spontaneously, but, rather, when I'm right-clicking highlighted text either to open it as a link or use the Context Search extension to search for the text on another website. It also doesn't ALWAYS happen--just frequently enough to be really annoying.

[suggestion]: reload page icon at the beginning of the url bar

Greetings all,
I suggest to place the "reload page icon" at the beginning of the URL bar (and not at the end of it like done as far as Version 6.0 build 7536.25).
This way seems more coherent (to me):
* not far away with the other page control (close/reduce/iconize)
* not far away of any action if needed to type something like a new URL
my 2 cents,
lem

For the Search Bar:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Back%20and%20forward%20or%20other%20toolbar%20items%20are%20missing#w_restoring-the-default-toolbar-set
If you don't see the Search bar after you RESTORE the Default Toolbar Set:
View > Toolbars > Customize and drag the SEARCH BAR to wherever you prefer.
For Refresh Button:
It has been incorporated into the far right end of the Address Bar. When you load a page, it is a "Stop" button, when it finished loading, it turns into a "Reload" button.
If you want it to be somewhere else in the Toolbar, you can drag it out to wherever you want. If that doesn't work, try this:
View > Toolbars > Customize and drag the Refresh/Stop icon into the window, then drag it back out to wherever you prefer.

How do I change my default search engine in the URL bar back to Google after my ISP replaced my default search engine with their own?

Before I changed internet service providers, I could type my search queries into the url bar and receive search results from Google. After I switched ISPs, my queries typed into the url bar are put into my new ISP's horrible search engine. How do I change it back?
I've already tried going to about:config and changing the value of the keyword.URL preference to "http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=" but that didn't fix my problem.
New information since creation of the post:
My ISP is Optimum. I have opted out of DNS Assistance and still have seen no change.
When my search term is two words or more, I am directed to Google search results. If my search term is only one word, however, I am still directed to Optimum's search results.

Hello samshine, try to reset the '''browser.search.defaultenginename''' in about:config and check it again.
thank you
