As I type in google search bar suggestions appear below & can usually be used when pressed but since I updated firefox they disappear and the whole search has to be typed. This occurs on my desktop & netbook. Any help will be appreciated, many thanks.

If you are talking about the search bar in the Google Toolbar extension, that is a known fault with that extension. You can use the up & down arrow keys to navigate to an item and then use the Enter key to select it for a search.
