I have downloaded the latest version of firefox and can open the browser but cannot type anything in the search bars. Each time I press any key the bar stays blank. Any Adivice?

In case one of your extensions is incompatible with the new style search bars in Firefox 34, could you test in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode.

If Firefox is running: 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).

If Firefox is not running: Hold down the Shift key when starting Firefox.

A a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (not Reset).

Any difference?
