My computer had a system restore after a storm shut my computer off after being frozen. No other issues are going on other than when I try to use the search bar, nothing happens. If I use the drop down box in the search bar, the only options I get are Add "Firefox Help", and Manage search engines. If I click on manage search engines, usually I get a list of options, google, yahoo, etc, but it is completely empty and restore defaults is grayed out.
Per other suggestions on this forum, I have upgraded to the latest firefox version, I have also downloaded the serachreset addon which didn't help. Also, there was another post on deleting the formhistory.sqlite file under my profiles, however, when I went to try this, there was no such file for me. (from this website's instructions http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_search_or_add_new_engines)
Please help as I don't want to have to delete the entire program just to find that upon reinstall, I don't have a fix.

After the latest update I cannot download apps from some locations. Whenever I click on the download button it acts as though it will download then up pops a page of gibberish (it looks like code). I haven't changed anything and all my downloads work just fine in IE and Chrome, so I know it's a Firefox problem.

My desktop operating system is XP. The latest upgrade has made it impossible to get on the internet. The Geek Squad guy says tha I need to upgrade my memory and go to Windows 8. The combination would cost me $200 with not quarantees that it would work.
Downloads are impossible so I need to have the appropriate browser software on CD.
Our laptops are fine because they are newer and make this communication possible.

I just got my first smart phone, a Verizon LGE VS870 4G and I run a business that requires the display of S3 Stored Videos. I used a service called EZS3 to build HTML5 players and on this page (http://filmmakersvillage.com/video) there are a number of videos that play without error on the mobile version of Chrome. However, the mobile version of firefox simply returns a blank white page. Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. (Keep in mind I'm a phone newbie and still getting my feet wet with this thing) Thank you in advance.
Dan PS: Phone says I'm using Firefox Version 21

I'm running OS X with the newest Firefox (the Yahoo Edition.) Suddenly, double clicking in the top of the window no longer collapses it into the dock. I've tried repairing permissions and dumping the Firefox prefs to no avail. I just did a Firefox security update a few days ago and I'm wondering if that has anything to do the problem.

All sympthoms are similar to question at http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/949490
The version 18.0.1 was fine, no any problems. Problems have started since I updated Firefox to version 18.0.2, before it was no issues with extension compatibility. Everything works except add-ons. I cannot install and/or update add-ons as well. I cannot open the page at https://addons.mozilla.org/ The page gives a message: "The connection has timed out".
Add-ons bar at the bottom of the screen seems to be working, but none of my extensions are showing next to the navigation bar. I run Firefox on the Linux Ubuntu 12.10 (32-bit), as well, and no issues.
Users tell me that firefox often fails when opening this link: http://www.asapla.com/pdffiles/AdLink.pdf; how can I correct?
I believe that IE always opens successfully, but that Firefox and other browsers are inconsistent in displaying the 2nd page, which is a PDF form.

I had to shut everything down on my computer last night.

I have a Mac and am wondering if I can get that information via Time Machine somehow.
