Awesome bar / search suggestions not working
I just updated to the newest version of Firefox, and all of a sudden the awesome bar fails to recommend any sites. There's no drop down to recommend anything at all. I've checked my options and I have "Provide search suggestions" and "Show search suggestions in address bar results" both clicked.
Thank you.

You can check this pref on the about:config page and make sure it is default.
- browser.urlbar.maxRichResults
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Appearance
- do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database (bookmarks and history) in the Firefox profile folder.
- use "Verify Integrity" on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page

Thanks for the suggestions, but none seem to work...
-I verified that "browser.urlbar.maxRichResults" is on "default"
-Safe Mode didn't fix it, and I've always been on the Default theme
-When I did "verify integrity" it stated this:
> Task: checkIntegrity - Unable to check database integrity > Task: checkCoherence - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: expire - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: vacuum - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: stats - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: _refreshUI - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task.
Try to check the Integrity in Firefox Safe Mode.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if that works.
- Windows: hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox
- Mac: hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
To check whether the "places" system is functional:
- Is Firefox saving new history as you visit pages?
- Are you able to save any new bookmarks?
The problem exists in Safe Mode too.
Yes, Firefox is still saving new history, and I can save bookmarks.
