Diễn đàn hỗ trợ Firefox

I have used Firefox for years and when searching then Google was automatically the default. The last month or 2 when I am using search, it is defaulting to Yahoo. Why did this happen and how do I change it back to defaulting to Google? Thank you.

I added the duckduckgo extension and gave it the required permissions, but despite it saying that it set duckduckgo as the default search engine, it hadn't even showed up on the list at all. I tried removing and adding back the extension, but that didn't work either.

I always use google as my default search engine for firefox. I recently got a message saying firefox had been updated. Ever since, whenever I search for something it keeps using yahoo as the default search engine instead of google. I checked the settings and google IS selected as the default search engine. The weird thing is, if I set the default search engine to something like ebay or wikipedia it will use that correctly. It's just that when google is selected it goes to yahoo instead. I appreciate any help, thank you.

I prefer to use Startpage as my search engine with Firefox on my Mac. I have that set up, but it's so annoying that when I put something in the address or search bar, no search happens. Instead, I just get the Startpage home page and then have to retype the same thing in there! How do I solve this?

Hi Folks:

For desktop Firefox.

Until a couple of weeks ago I could have a search bar next to the address bar.

This allowed me to enter a search request and then see the search result's page with the page's address in the address bar.

If I wanted to repeat the search, or modify the search, the search request would still be in the search bar.

Now I only have the address bar. If the page found by the search isn't what I want I need to re-type the search into the address bar where it will be overwritten by the address of the result of the search.

That can be inconvenient.

I no longer see the option for a separate search bar in Firefox's search settings.

Am I the only person who misses this feature?

Is the separate search bar available if I know how to ask for it?

Thanks Larry

Why do searches only show results from liberal news outlets? This is the case no matter which search engine I choose.

I can go many pages into search results and not see any results from conservative new sources such as Newsmax. And yet, if I put Newmax in the search I get their results. But why do I have to search that way. And more importantly, why do general searches ONLY SHOW LIBERAL NEWS results?

Here is an example from today's news that "Lester Holt stepping down" from NBC News.

A search of "Lester Holt stepping down" shows: NBC news, AP news, CNN, CBS, USA Today, NBC, Politico, New York Times, The Hollywood Reporter, People, Yahoo, and on. But NO conservative news outlets. And just to be clear, Fox News comes up sometimes (down several pages), but many things they report show me that they often don't show conservative viewpoints--which changed a couple years ago, with management changes.

I really want an answer to this question. The Liberal News BIAS is disgusting and needs to be stopped!

While I know that I can change the Search engine (currently set to DuckDuckGo), the problem is that they all generally show the same results. Just like they all rely on Google for their information.

I use Sequoia on a MacBook Air and I have used DDG in the past but recently it has become increasingly restrictive in its searches....to the point where it won't even allow me access to my own accounts. I have tried deleting the application, uninstalling Firefox and then re-installing it but it just won't go away.

I'm switching from Google Chrome to Firefox. I have completed everything and the computer is telling me that Mozilla Firefox is know my my default. However, The Mozilla screen that comes up when I start does not appear to be customizable and the search bar shows the "G" Goggle icon and says "search on google". Am I doing something wrong?

Duck Duck Go search from the address bar suddenly does not work. All queries return a page with the search box and no results. Google search functions correctly. Additionally, the search function on Yahoo Finance no longer functions. Both of these websites and functions work on a mobile version of Firefox connected to the same wifi. At first I had no idea what was causing it but after using troubleshooting mode and turning on extensions one at a time it turns out that metamask was causing the error.

I've had the icons change position since 2 hours ago. I use my keyboard (the arrow keys) to use the search engines that I want to. I want to change it back, how do I do it?

There is a drop down menu with a list of search engines to swap between. I'd like to never see this again for the rest of my life. How do i remove this from my browser?

How can I delete search history? I have a few misspelled searches and similar old stuff that pops up in the address bar when I type in a new search.

I have tried several things:

• Settings → Privacy & Security → Clear data → Selecting and marking everything but with no effect whatsoever
• Settings → Privacy & Security → History → Firefox will never remember history + Clear history as mentioned above
• Settings → Search → Search suggestions → everything disabled
• Settings → Search → Address bar → everything but Bookmarks have been disabled
• Deleted my old Firefox account and created a new so I can still sync between 2 computers

Example: Previously I used www.adobe.com but now I use www.adobe.dk. But everytime I enter adobe in the address bar, Firefox keeps suggesting (autofill) adobe.com instead adobe.dk.

Any suggestions how to clear/delete the browser/search history so I can get a fresh start?

Hello. For some reason, whenever I do a search the response is on a "Yahoo" tab. How do I return to Firefox, as I do not want to use Yahoo? Best regards Barry Mitchell

I open Firefox and the search box has defaulted to EBAY. How do I change it to Duck Duck or something else ? There's no down arrow by the seach box to change and no instructions in your help. It's too hard to find the answer. Thanks!
