Yahoo Answers search results won't connect from Google search

When I do a Google search that has a result from Yahoo Answers, if I click the link in Firefox I can't connect to it, but I can from Chrome, IE, Safari, etc... For example I did a Google search for "yahoo answers" so that the general home page was the top result. When I click the link or open it in a new tab, the tab/site name change to the redirect string but the site's contents never load. This is the string that displays in the address bar:
http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=yahoo%20answers&source=web&cd=1&sqi=2&ved=0CGMQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fanswers.yahoo.com%2F&ei=QMsAUKG9AqfE2gXch-2NCw&usg=AFQjCNFto79smHDfZ7VbbGSA4-PlJwF1EA&cad=rja
I can copy this string into any other browser and Yahoo Answers open, but it doesn't in Firefox. I can also go to answers.yahoo.com directly through the address bar and the site opens correctly. What is wrong with Firefox?

I was able to determine that the Disconnect plugin was interfering with my ability to connect to the search results from a Google search. I'll contact the creator and see if they are aware of this issue.

Search result to get data from bing search and display it in sharepoint page.

I have configured result source which gets data from bing site,i have given following url as source url
http://www.bing.com/search?q={?searchterms}&format=rss&Market=en-Us
but it returns only 8 results from RSS. i want to get all results of search and display it in my SharePoint search results page.
any pointers will be helpful.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to search result to get data from bing search and displayed it in sharepoint page.
To display more items, you can modify the item number when you add
New Query Rule.
To get all results, I recommend to use the “Show More”
link in the result page.
You can enter the URL when you add New Query Rule:
"More" link goes to the following URL: http://www.bing.com/search?q={searchterms}
Here is a great blog for your reference:

I have just updated to 7.0.1 and suddenly my search results won't open in a new tab

I have just updated to 7.0.1 and suddenly my search results won't open in a new tab (let alone a new window - something I much preferred in the past) although this option is checked.
I even installed Tab Utilities Light Options - all of it's options work, but not for Search Bar.
When I choose one of the search results and want to view several items on that site (let's say a page with some 50 photo's), there seems to be no longer a way to return to the original search result. I have to start from scratch.
I hope this can be 'mended' because this is utterly annoying.
Greetings

Although 6 other people seem to have encountered this problem, nobody has offered a solution yet. Perhaps the following will put some Firefox gurus on the right trail.
When I said "my search results", I meant the results obtained with Google (standard when installing Firefox). Now I have tried another search engine (Dogpile) and there The tabs do work. Very strange, isn't it ?

Google search results won't open automatically new tab in firefox 6.0.2

Clicking on google search results won't open automatically new tabs in firefox 6.0.2, although it was working until today!

Did you check the Google settings via the gear icon at the top left of the Google site to make sure that you still have selected that feature?

How can I change the default Google search engine in Firefox 8 from google.fr to google.co.uk? Yes, I live in France with a French ISP, but English is my mother tongue and I want UK based responses.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Remove from Google search

Hello,
I would like to remove my page from Google search temporarily, so no one will find it it when they search material which relates to my page. Right now it's pretty much number 1 or 2. I even removed my site from servers and still it shows the page in search. Of course, when you click, it's error.
From Google webmaster tools page;
To prevent most search engine web crawlers from indexing a page on your site, place the following meta tag into the <head> section of your page:
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
To prevent only Google web crawlers from indexing a page:
<meta name="googlebot" content="noindex">
Well i have this code meta name="googlebot" content="noindex"> in my metadata section (master page), but it does not work. I also did the "Fetch as google" from webmasters tool. Please help.
Here's some pictures:

Macbook Air Safari (Mac OS X 10.6.8) won't connect to Google, Yahoo, or Facebook but yet allows other websites to connect. Help!

My daughter's Macbook Air Safari (using Mac OS X 10.6.8) won't allow her to connect to Google, Yahoo and Facebook. It will for some reason allow for Bing searches and connections to specific other websites. The wifi seems to be connected fine. We have done the "reset Safari" excercise and updated for the most recent software updates. Also did the good old shut down and restart but no go. Does anyone have any other suggestions or seen this problem before?
Thanks!

There may be a redirect issue if an adware software has been
installed by accident or by intent; usually if someone goes to a
web site where questionable downloads of software are free,
there may be (included, added to) the packet you get, adware
or perhaps even malware.
So, if this is the case, the symptoms you say are part of this
experience may be related to an adware or other badware
running in the background. A 'cleanmymac' or 'mackeeper'
can also mess up a Mac computer, & they are not advised.
Several posts to the ASC discussions are about these kinds
of things and many point back to a user going to some web
site and downloading something. A click can do it.
A way to help find some evidence of certain kinds of add-ons
(outside of looking into the Browser's add-ons and see about
deleting those that relate to odd behavior, or badware) such
as adware, one could get and use this free utility & get a
report of general system info, and then post it online to see
if someone can spot some of the characteristics adware or
other malware may have included in the system.
There is another way to get a more lengthy report than etrecheck
as Linc Davis has posted, that uses more detailed effort on the
part of the user, in order to get a larger fuller report.
This is the short and easy way to look for a few clues that may
be addressed through using advice in TheSafeMac guide.
•EtreCheck: (also click on read-more)
http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck
The report from the above may be helpful along with info in the
site below. Note there are other guides in TheSafeMac, too.
•Adware Removal Guide:
http://www.thesafemac.com/arg/
Hopefully the issue with the browser can be resolved in one
of up to three/four different ways, depending on what it is.
PS: recent updates to some OS X versions, etc do not
include update to Snow Leopard; only later systems.
{by the time I write all this, you may already have a reply}
Good luck & happy computing!

How do I get Firefox 12 to open a link from Google search results?

Ever since upgrading to version 12.0, whenever I click on certain links the browser just "reloads" the same page I am on rather than loading the new page in the same tab. When this happens it's not opening the link in a new tab or window, instead just for a second the tab I am on says "connecting" and has the circular busy indicator, and then I'm right where I was before. In order actually follow a link I'm having to context click and then click Open in a new Tab.
On a lot of websites the links follow as usual and open the new page in the same tab. Others don't however, such as the search results page from google. I'm wondering if this is something to do with the new anti-duplicate tab feature, and if so, how do I disable that? I'm on OSX 10.6.8. Thanks.

Certificate error pops up from Google search results page

Hi,
I wanted to find out more info about a certain company, so I typed the name on Google. When I clicked on Search (not I'm feeling lucky!) the search results appeared, but I immediately got a pop-up saying the certificate for the website of the company in question was not valid:
"Secure Connection Failed
www.mvfaccount.com:443 uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown.
(Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)
This could be a problem with the server's configuration or it could be someone trying to impersonate the server.
If you have connected to this server successfully in the past the error may be temporary and you can try again later."
But the thing is: I hadn't even clicked on that search result! The warning appeared while the search results page was loading.
I find that unsettling because it makes me wonder: does Firefox visit the websites before I visit them?
And before you ask: no, I'm not a customer of that company (Maple Valley Financial) nor did I ever visit them before.
Thanks,
Sergio

I'm not sure how this could be a Firefox setting, but I would try the "usual" first:
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference? If that helps, it could be that you selected to block that element in one of your add-ons.

Problem with "Back" Button in pages loaded from Google search results

I am using Windows XP Home 32bit and Mozilla Firefox Ver 5.0
I do a search using Google and I go to page 3 of the returned queries (links) and then go to one of the sites from the search results. When I hit the return button while in the site chosen from the search results, instead of returning to page 3, it always returns to page 1 of the search results.
This happens on any page ie I go to page 22 and use a link then hit return button it still returns to page 1.
Only started happening in past couple of days and it's very annoying. I have not updated Firefox or added any new extensions/add-ons. i have cleared cookies, uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and issue still appears.
I have Google Chrome and IE and tried the same query in both and it works as it should work, ie returns to the correct page, so my conclusion is that it may be a Firefox Ver 5 issue.

If I turn off the "Use a secure HTTPS connection when available." setting in the google search settings, then the problem goes away...

Change search results tile with information from just client table...

Hello all,
I am quite new in MSA development area. Could you please answer one specific question?
I would like to enchance search results tile. I want to add two additional columns, but with information from ONLYclient table. For exapmle table Zclient. I would like to store this table only in IDES DB on laptop and not transfer it to CRM server.
This table Zclient will have relation to other information which is now in search result tile.
Is it possible to create BDoc with combination of data...from server and only from client DB?
And could you please provide me some cookbook for enchacing Mobile application?
Thanks a lot!!
Best regards,
Vera

Hi Vera,
What you want to accomplish is possible. Santosh is correct, you have to create your Zclient (CDB table) and query Z_BDOC on CRM server. Then, generate this Zlcient table and new Z_BDOC with a Client Console on the laptop, and that will create CDB table in your ides db and update tps file with new Z_BDOC.
Then, in MAS, create a Business Query, with relation to new Z_BDOC. Generate that BQuery. Model your tile, so that it's using your new Business Query. You may need to do some coding as well.
P.S. Cince data from this table won't be replicated to CRM, you still need to initially populate that table on every client ( sql query ? ).
Let me know if you have any questions or need help.
Regards,
Vadim.

No search result using managed property from a column of a published infopath form

Hi,
I'm trying to use a managed property in the advanced search to retrieve only words from a column of a published InfoPath form. We are using FAST Search and verify that the column are being crawled by checking the crawled property in Central Admin but still
cannot retrieve search result for the managed property. We also do a full crawl before testing the search. Thank you..

Hi Rommel,
When we create a column from a list (not site column), then we need create list item with this column value, then we need to full crawl, then the the crawled propery ows_listColumnName will be generated, then create a managed property to map this
crawled property(start a full crawl again if needed), then add the custom managed property in advance search web part property, then check again.
Here is an article about how to add the custom managed proerpty in advanced search web part, you can take a look.
