Why does Google come up in my type in bar when I open Firefox?

When I open the web page using Firefox the type in bar is listed as Google??? Why, Is Firefox not my web browser???

Google is a search engine, not a "web browser". Firefox features Google as the default search engine, but you can easily use any search engine you so desire by changing the search engine in the search bar.

    Do a reset, hold down the home/power button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

  • Why does (-50) come up as a problem for me when i try to publish?

    when i try to publish my iMovie to iTunes, it keeps coming up with...
    Unable to prepare project for publishing.
    this project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occured. (-50)
    does anyone know what that means, or what i can do to export it. i have made movies in the past, and they were about 1:30 to 2 minutes long before, and now suddenly it won't let me export it. i have music on it, and the movie is about 4:30 long. it has video and fast forward and slow motion and rewind. but that shouldn't be a problem because movies are not exactly the shortest things. if anyone knows about this or knows how to fix it, could you please tell me because it is so annoying watching that sign come up every time i try to export it. so thank you for your time.

  • Why does google keep telling me my password is wrong? I only have one and it works for everything else

    Why does google keep telling me my password is wrong
    It works fine on my I pad but my i phone does not show e mails or messages
    And the message keeps on saying the password is wrong
    I only have one password and I know what that is
    But google does not seem to recognize it
    Maybe I should change my e mail provider
    My I phone is useless if I cannot pickup messages and e mails

    May be a problem with Google's 2 step verification, see if this helps you:

    I'm guessing you created the Enum on the front panel.  If you right-click it and create an indicator, it will match the type, and be an enum.  LabVIEW represents enums as U16, but because the types aren't identical (for example, your enum has 3 values, but a U16 has 65,536 values), LabVIEW automatically coerces (or converts) the smaller (enum) representation into the larger (U16) value.

  • Why does it come white when i take a picture on my Iphone4s? it's new, I bought it before 2 weeks ago. what can I do?

    why does it come white when i take a picture on my Iphone4s? it is not all of the pictures which becomes white, but some of them and it is not because i used flash. the phone is new as well , I bought it before 2 weeks ago. what can I do? please need help.

    First step in troubleshooting is to reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

    If you're not running iOS 8 as you describe you are not, and Siri keeps coming on, this could be a hardware failure of the Home Button.
    Try these steps:
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6 older, hold down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • Why does the keyboard take over and type c's all across the search box (no hands involved)?

    Why does the keyboard take over and type c's across the search box (no hands involved)?

    There are only three possibilities. Either a dangling hand hitting the c key, or if you have a bluetooth keyboard connected and something is pressing a key, or you have some bad harware.  Eliminate the first two, and if you still have the problem, take it in for service or replacement

  • 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 Google show up as the search engine - when I have Firefox installed?

    I installed firefox as my browser, because Google is having more and more problems and I do not want them as a search engine. But when I opened Firefox there was Google in the search bar????? It does not work. when I go to an initial website it is ok, but when I try to re-direct to another site - it hangs up and will not connect.

    Google pays Mozilla to be the default search engine, but of course you can change it. The search bar is simplest: you just use the drop-down to choose a different search service. If your preferred site isn't available, let us know what it is. The address bar is next simplest, but you need to paste a new preference in through a slightly obscure method. <s>Changing the search box on the built-in Firefox homepage is the hardest.</s> ''The search box on the built-in Firefox homepage can be changed as described in the next post.''
    There is some malware going around that redirects Google results to random sites. Usually the pattern is that using the back button to return to the results and clicking again will take you to the correct site. If you think you might have this problem, check out this thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/939017 Google Redirect Virus Removal].
    As with many security issues, choose any new software tools with a degree of skepticism because some of the purported cures promoted on blogs and fixit sites may be worse than the disease.

  • Firefox and default site - when I open firefox google comes up fine - but any other sibsequesnt page I have to type in google can I set up a default page for every page that I open up in a window

    Hello
    When I open Firefox, google comes up as my default page. This is fine but if I open additional windows next to the default page nothing comes up.
    Can you set google or any other page to be the default page in any window I open. It is annoying to have to keep on typing google in every time I want to open a new page with firefox

    You can modify the pref <b>keyword.URL</b> on the <b>about:config</b> page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or Google's "Browse By Name".
    * Google "I'm Feeling Lucky": http://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=

  • Why does Flash/Flex Builder 4 Premium downgrade to Standard when I install Flash Player Debug?

    Why does Flash/Flex Builder 4 Premium downgrade to Standard when I install Flash Player Debug?
    I installed a corporate install of Flex/Flash Builder 4 Premium, and verified that it was the Premium version was installed.  The Start Page said that Flash Player was needed to display the text, so I installed Flash Player 10 Debug -- first download link from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    When I then started Flex Builder 4, the splash screen showed Premium, but as soon as the Start Page was visible, it showed "FB Adobe Flash Builder 4 Standard" --- Help | About showed Standard, and the splash screen from then on showed Standard.
    A Google search showed a work around for this, but it requires a license for Premium, which I don't have because our corporate install has it built-in:
    http://bloginblack.de/2010/05/adobe-master-collection-cs5-breaks-flash-builder-4-premium-a nd-how-to-fix-it/
    1. Anyone know how to resolve this?
    2. Can Adobe fix this?
    Thanks!

    I had similar problem. I was involved in Flash Builder prerelease program and few months later I installed Adobe CS5 Master Collection. After that I had a same situation.  Best thing was, my Flash Builder Beta was Premium version but acted like Standard, and FB from CS5 was Standard but acted like Premium. I removed CS5 and beta version of CS5. used CS5 Cleaning Fix and then reinstalled my apps.
    I was lucky that I didn't have many big projects involved in FB beta or CS5 workspaces, I heard some guys had problems with migrated workspace configurations but I don't know what was the problem.

    It's a really bad idea to post your email addresess - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove them.
    This is a user-to-user forum and no-one on here can take any direct action. If your Yahoo address is not working that's something you would need to take up with Yahoo - have you checked it by sending yourself an email to it?
    Otherwise you will need to contact Support: go to https://expresslane.apple.com/ and click on 'iTunes' in the center column and then 'iTunes Store' in the right-hand column and proceed from there.
