Why does google (and only google) no longer work in toolbar search box?

The search box on the Firefox toolbar - not the google toolbar- no longer works if google is selected as search engine, gives a not found error to any search. Other search engines work, but google is broken. Google works fine anywhere else, just not from stock toolbar search box. Windows XP, Firefox 16.0.1.

Thanks for the help, but that didn't work. "keyword.URL" was not bold and it wouldn't allow me to select reset. what next?

Why is Google no longer working properly in Safari?

I have Google for business (I think that is what it is called...they keep changing the name). About two weeks ago, it started stopped working properly in Safari. My left column of mail boxes often disappear and the pain with the emails in it either doesn’t show up properly or doesn't scroll. Is anyone else having this problem? If so, how do you solve it?
I have Safari 7.0.1.
Thank you,
Ian

Why does my phone only offer attachments to be opened in drop box and evernote, when before it always gave me the "open in i-note" option-suggestions

does the iphone 4 only offer 2 "open-in" options when dealing with email attchements?
mine used to always offer teh I-note option now it only offers evernote and dropbox- any ideas?

Hello,
Sorry to just now be getting back to you, but with Thanksgiving and my granddaughter's wedding yesterday, I've been too busy and stressed to worry about my phone again until now.
Yes, I used the default email application, and the email provider is Cox Communications. Anything you can do to help would be appreciated. Also I was wondering if I should change to IMAP (from POP3)....perhaps that would help the problem? Don't know, as I don't know anyone else who uses IMAP. Your help, again, would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Why does timer code (by dbasnett) no longer work splendidly?

Using timer code supplied by dbasnett back in May2014, I was able to see FPS of near 500 for a simple animation. Now, with a more recent 64bit laptop Win 8.1 - - I run the same code - - - and see poor results similar to standard timers - - where the
results are "stepped" - - -like either 16FPS or 32FPS or the max I can get is 64FPS.
This thread back in May2014 - -https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/9ddb2f16-796a-483a-aa3f-0f9b959e0eea/the-use-of-systemwindowsformstimer-for-time?forum=vbgeneral
And here is the code that dbasnett supplied - -
Public Class Form1
Dim R As Integer
Dim D, T As Double
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Me.ClientSize = New Size(500, 500)
Me.DoubleBuffered = True
T = Environment.TickCount
timeSubThrd = New Threading.Thread(AddressOf timeSub)
timeSubThrd.IsBackground = True
timeSubThrd.Start()
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_FormClosing(sender As Object, e As FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
If Not slp.WaitOne(0) Then
'RemoveHandler Me.Paint, AddressOf Me.Form1_Paint
slp.Set()
e.Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_Paint(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) Handles Me.Paint
Dim rct As Rectangle = New Rectangle(250 - R, 250 - R, 2 * R, 2 * R)
Using spen As New Pen(Color.FromArgb(83, 32, 69))
spen.Width = 4
e.Graphics.DrawEllipse(spen, rct)
End Using
End Sub
Dim timeSubThrd As Threading.Thread
Dim slp As New Threading.ManualResetEvent(False)
Private Sub timeSub()
Dim A As Double = -1
Do
D += 0.125663707
If D > (2 * Math.PI) Then
A = 50000 / (Environment.TickCount - T)
T = Environment.TickCount
D = 0
End If
R = CInt(Math.Cos(D) * 60) + 180
Me.Invoke(Sub()
Invalidate()
If A <> -1 Then
Me.Text = A.ToString("##0.0##") & " FPS"
End If
End Sub)
A = -1
Loop While Not slp.WaitOne(20) '<<<<<<< the timer interval
Me.Invoke(Sub()
Me.Close()
End Sub)
End Sub
End Class
With timer interval set to 20 - - - - it used to give about 50FPS (which is should), but it doesnt anymore - - - it gives 32FPS.
Can anybody shed some light on what has gone wrong? My present laptop also a I7 is 4 years younger than my old laptop and has far betters specs. Why is it slower? or why is this timer code no longer acting the same?
Thanks

@ Reed Kimble. Thanks for your point about not being OS related. That make sense anyway.
@ Mr.Monkeyboy. Thanks for your links and points. I had a bit of a read. Mostly over my head. To me it should'nt be a thread priority question because the program is so simple - there is only one thread anyway.
And I don't think it is a graphics issue, because I altered the program to only manipulate a bitmap - not activate a paint event - - - but it still performs poorly. I only get 32 Cycles Per Second instead of 50 CPS. See - this is how I altered the
code - but no change in performance:-
Public Class Form4
Dim bmp As Bitmap
Dim gfx As Graphics
Dim R As Integer
Dim D, T As Double
Private Sub Form4_Load(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
bmp = New Bitmap(500, 500)
gfx = Graphics.FromImage(bmp)
Me.ClientSize = New Size(500, 500)
T = Environment.TickCount
timeSubThrd = New Threading.Thread(AddressOf timeSub)
timeSubThrd.IsBackground = True
timeSubThrd.Start()
End Sub
Private Sub Form2_FormClosing(sender As Object, e As FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
If Not slp.WaitOne(0) Then
'RemoveHandler Me.Paint, AddressOf Me.Form2_Paint
slp.Set()
e.Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
Sub test()
Dim rct As Rectangle = New Rectangle(250 - R, 250 - R, 2 * R, 2 * R)
Using spen As New Pen(Color.FromArgb(83, 32, 69))
spen.Width = 4
gfx.DrawEllipse(spen, rct)
End Using
End Sub
Dim timeSubThrd As Threading.Thread
Dim slp As New Threading.ManualResetEvent(False)
Private Sub timeSub()
Dim A As Double = -1
Do
D += 0.125663707
If D > (2 * Math.PI) Then
A = 50000 / (Environment.TickCount - T)
T = Environment.TickCount
D = 0
End If
R = CInt(Math.Cos(D) * 60) + 180
Me.Invoke(Sub()
test()
If A <> -1 Then
Me.Text = A.ToString("##0.0##") & " CPS"
End If
End Sub)
A = -1
Loop While Not slp.WaitOne(20) '<<<<<<< the timer interval
Me.Invoke(Sub()
Me.Close()
End Sub)
End Sub
End Class
PS - I changed the code so that it does not deal with bitmaps or graphics at all - - - but still no improvement.
Maybe it is Framework Version issue ??
Thanks all

LR5.4: Why does automatic lens correction profile no longer work for SONY NEX-5N?

Starting in LR5.4, if I attempt to apply automatic lens profile corrections, LR applies a profile for a Hasselblad LF 18-55 camera lens instead.
Formerly, in LR 5.3, the 'make' in the lens profile pane automatially matched the EXIF 'make' of the NEX-5N; namely, "Sony", and the correct lens profile was applied automatically.
In LR5.4, I must now manually select make = "Sony E" to appy a "setup=custom" profile before LR applies the correct lens profile. The minute I set 'make=Sony E', LR applies a profile that matches the lens in use: either the "Sony E 18-55mm F3.5-F5.6 OSS", the "Sony E 16mm F2.8 OSS" lens or the "Sony E 55-210mm F4.5-6.3 OSS" lens that I use.
Another issue: I am not certain of this, but I swear the LR5.4 lens profile correction now *increases* pin-cushion image distortion, whereas it worked beautifully in LR5.3. (I should take a photograph of a grid to see if my impression is correct.) Are the lens profile corrections applied to a camera with EXIF make="Sony E" different from those applied to an EXIF make="Sony" (i.e., the NEX-5N)? If so, this is a shame, for it means LR no longer fully supports the NEX-5N.
Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?
(I believe LR5.4 may have picked up on recent product line changes announced by SONY, wherein NEX will be marketed as Sony Alpha E cameras, and I imagine they will be changing the EXIF 'make' of new cameras to reflect this. However, that won't be changing the EXIF make of my NEX-5N.)

Why is that so and how can I get the proper lens profile automatically if the lens does have its own Adobe profile loaded?
Frustrated ...
Pick the correct lens manually then choose 'Save New Lens Profile Defaults' from Setup drop down menu. Lr should remember the lens and use it as the default in future. See screenshot below

Why does Screen Sharing between Macs no longer work?

Just recently many of my Mac computers have stopped Screen Sharing with each other. I cannot think of any reason why this would begin happening. These computers are 'system critical' computers so I haven't updated to Mavericks yet. One is an iMac running OS X 10.8 and the other is a Mac Mini running 10.7. Any clues?

This could be something as simple as a bad Router Port. Try switching the Ethernet cable on one of the effected Macs to a port that you know is working. When I was running computer labs, bad ports were a commmon issue. If that doen't work we will move on to other possible solutions.

Why does my external hard drive no longer work

I have a toshiba 1tb external hard drive on which I back up my Toshiba lap top. This morning when I tried to do this both USB ports on the laptop died. Thats a very short explanation for what has taken some time to establish. To get them working again I have to reboot the laptop & then I can use my wireless mouse & keyboard etc. Attach the harddrive again everything dies.
Now the point that got me to this board is that I gave my hard drive to a colleague to copy some files (which he did) but he runs a mac! Has his mac killed my hard drive & done something that somehow means when it plugs into my laptop it kills the USB drives on that too?

Bob you might just be right. He might have killed the cable though. I've managed to find a similar connection & I now seem to have access. Is that a natural breeding rainbow or one of those bloated stockies?

Why does my hotmail account account no longer work right? Cannot forward or reply to messages without the original message being lost. Hotmail says it is a problem with the latest Firefox update.

When I try to forward or reply to my emails in my Hotmail account, the original message disappears. Hotmail says it is a compatibility problem with the newest version of Firefox. They suggested I use Internet Explorer. Would prefer to use my old version of Firefox. How do I get it back? Or how can I get my hotmail account to work properly with the 3.6.3 version?

Suzie,
Could you be a little more specific in your question? Are you developing an ADF/JSF application? a Web Service? EJB? Is it a plan Java App?
There are more chances for your question to have a more proper response if posted in the right place :)

I only have one password and I know what that is

Why does google start up but when i try to access a web page it shuts off

why does google start up but when i try to access a web page it shuts off

Not entirely sure what you mean, but if you are saying that the Safari screen is frozen/inactive then try clearing its cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (Clear Cache on iOS 4) and also Clear History
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Why does my ipod only show an apple and wont start up

Why does my Ipod only show an apple and wont do anything else> And holding down the two buttons has done nothing!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
