I've tried this:

In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter.

   The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise! to continue to the about:config page. 

In the Search field, type keyword.enabled. Double-click the keyword.enabled preference to set its value to false.

I guess you or an addon has changed one of the Fiirefox settings.

Look for the preference keyword.enabled ; and set that to true

  • see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Keyword.enabled
  • You will need to navigate to about:config filter for then toggle the pref.
    1. Navigate to about:config by keying that into the addressbar and pressing the Enter Key on the keyboard.
    2. Accept any warning you see
    3. Filter for keyword';by keying that into the Search Line to find the preference named keyword.enabled
      • Filter for keyword ; by keying that into the Search Line to find the preference named keyword.enabled
    4. Select and Right click the preference. Use the toggle option that to changes the value from false to true

As a test to see if addons interfere try in Firefox's safemode. You may for instance find the pref gets reset by an addon if you the addon is have such an addon active.

if it does not work then as you did not include your full troubleshooting information please paste your troubleshooting information into a separate reply (edit out any print related information to saves pace). Make other comments separately so we see them easily.

Which search engine do you have selected in the Search Bar?

The Search engine that is set in the Search Bar will be the one which is used there (the Search Bar), the Location Bar, the default Homepage, and the new tab page.

Google is selected in the search bar and works fine, new tab page opens up a sort of tiled screen of my most visited websites i think

Problem is not that another search engine is being used, its that no search engine is being used
