Why has my "similar" mouseover feature in GOOGLE image search stopped working?

When I clear cache and cookies it will work properly for awhile in Foxfire 4, but after resetting my GOOGLE preferences, it stops working properly once again. The earlier version of Foxfire did not have this problem. Also, the "similar" feature continues to work fine in Explorer.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
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")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • The "My Ebay" page and the AT&T yahoo changed suddenly and some features are non operative. Also the Google instant search stopped working. All this is happening on Firefox. Everything displays and works correctly on IE. What could be wrong?

    Hi, On thursday evening I closed all open windows to do some virus scanning and window washer maintenance. After I was finished I opened up firefox and went back on Ebay and the "My Ebay" window has changed to a totally different appearance and I can't access messages, etc. My AT&T Yahoo email window has also changed its appearance and has selections on it which are new and non operative. They both are now presented as a vertical format and the "My Ebay" window is expanded off the monitor with a blue sliding bar on the bottom and large white areas in the viewing area. I can shrink it down, but I then need a magnifying glass to read it. The opening Ebay sign in window is normal. The opening AT&T sign in window is normal. Also the Google instant search results, which used to appear when I was typing in my search words, has also stopped working. Everything seems to work properly on Internet Explorer. When I double click on the Mozilla icon it takes me to the Mozilla start page and shows me the Google search bar. That is what I normally see. I'm baffled.

    (1) Firefox's built-in post-crash page has not been a real HTML page for a long time (for example, from the time of Firefox 22, see: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/968212 Want to save LOTS of versions of "Restore Session.xht" from the "oops ..." page for later use]). If you had this working differently with Firefox 25, that might have been created by an extension.
    You can check to see whether extensions are disabled or need an update on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. The disabled extensions cluster toward the bottom of the list. To poll for updates, use the "gear" button above the list and choose Check for Updates.
    If you used the Reset feature (or Firefox automatically did a reset due to some problem during upgrading), you will need to reinstall missing extensions. The reset feature creates a folder on the desktop named Old Firefox Data. Do you have that folder? There may be data you can recover from it.
    (2) There are many ways for history to get cleared, both internal to Firefox and external. Could you double-check your Privacy settings?
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Privacy
    * The "Firefox will" drop-down says Remember History: Firefox shouldn't be clearing history, but an add-on or external software could do it
    * The "Firefox will" drop-down says Use custom settings for history: inspect the "Clear history when Firefox closes" setting to make Firefox isn't set to clear history. Also check your add-ons and consider external software.
    Firefox normally accumulates months of history. However, some of Firefox's database sizes are based on disk space available. If your hard drive is very full, Firefox might reduce the amount of history stored.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • Help with removing images from Google image searches with Dreamweaver

    I made a sight in dreamweaver, and need to remove a page from that website with some old images. So I removed the link and moved the webpage from the root folder. And If I go into dreamweaver the page is blank showing the image has been removed.
    But the images are still showing up in google image searches even though I removed them in dreamweaver and re-uploaded the sight successfully. How do I remove them form the internet completely so they no longer show up in google images??

  • CPU maxing out with Google Image search, some other websites

    When I try to use Google Image search or load SBNation website articles, Firefox's CPU usage maxes out and it becomes unresponsive for a good 10 seconds before it has loaded everything. This is a new problem that has popped up within the last few weeks.
    I've tried disabling all addons and plugins, removing cookies, clearing cache, downgrading from the beta version to 23 and none seem to make any difference.

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • IWeb images not showing on google image search

    I've created an iWeb website but can't find any of my images on google image search, although the site appears on web search. I've created new sitemaps 4 days ago, tagged the images with iWeb SEO... I've made two separate pages of images only, not the photo album pages which I think are difficult to search / tag.
    Does anyone know how long it takes Google image search to list your images. It already has listed my website on web / text search for sometime.

    Mia12 wrote:
    ...the site appears on web search.
    Do sub-pages of your site appear? I'm wondering whether your images aren't being found because the sub-pages in which they reside are not being found...
    One of the biggest problems with iWeb is the way it creates your navigation bars. Instead of using standard HTML which search engines can use to correctly find all files on your website, it uses Javascript which makes it extremely hard for search engines to scan and index your website properly.

  • After upgrading 3.6.7, in "google image search" all the results appears in one page, I just need to go back to the previous way of search : page after page.......??

    After upgrading 3.6.7, in "google image search" all the results appears in one page, I just need to go back to the previous way of search : page after page.......??
    where can I adjust this option ?? I tried in IE, the search way is normal as in past..
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    I believe this to be a browser issue, not a google search results issue, and here is why:
    having updated Firefox only yesterday, I visited google images searching for pancakes.... interestingly, I have the NEW image results (yuck) on Firefox 3.6.8, I have the OLD image results on IE8 and Opera 10.53.
    When I use the 'switch to basic version' in Firefox 3.6.8, indeed it DOES revert to the new format next time I image search (in Firefox).
    For those of us who prefer the OLD image results page, I guess we will just have to switch browsers for google image search.
    Now I'm off to research how to get rid of the UGLY FFox sidebar.

  • Images not loading.. blue question mark(myspace and on google image search)

    not all images but the majority are not showing. Iv tried deleting everything possible to try and make it work. Its the same with other browsers as well. do i need a plug-in to get it to work.

    If you're talking about Anomaly Industries Google Image search, I've had no success with it with my notebook or desktop, Tiger or Leopard. A shame, because it was the most (only?) useful widget I'd discovered. The others give you a page of images. This one could bypass all the advertising and provide a bountiful collection of individual slides. I have a hunch that the program has been "neutralized"--Google would be the most likely suspect.

  • What happened to the scrolling picture google image search in iOS 7 Safari?

    When I used google image search before I updated to iOS 7, I could just scroll through the pictures. Now it's more like a regular computer, and I have to click on a picture one at a time to enlarge, and then go back and view the others. Am I missing something? How do I get the easy scrolling image search back - or did Apple remove this feature for iOS 7?

    Google's working on the Safari iOS 7 incompatibility with Google Images:

  • How do I let Google Image Search find my images and movie clips on my site?

    My website, hosted on .mac, has images (I'm just starting to add short movie clips) of my sculptures. If I do a Google Image Search of my name (david l phelps) or the name of the sculpture (for instance "pastoral dreamer") the search results show other sites that have my work on them, but not my site. I have no idea how to process the images (or movies) so Google can index them from my site.
    If anyone knows how to do this, or knows other forums or resources I can find this information please let me know. I would greatly appreciate it.

    You might need to add titles to your images post-processing.
    Search for
    alt=""
    Replace with
    alt="description or title of image"
    On my husband's photography bus. site I put keywords for our site in the alt tags, not specific titles for each image, so I can just do them all at once with MassReplaceIt.

  • White page after submitting Google Image Search term.

    I just downloaded Firefox 4 and now I can get to the Google Image Search page but when I submit a term the webpage hangs for awhile and then lands on a completely blank, white page. I do not actively use any antivirus or firewall, and I do not have any plugins other than the very basics.
