Hi ,

There may be a little confusion here:   Firefox is   not   a search engine,   but a browser.
When you say:   other search engines are working normally,   are you talking about   e.g.   Bing   or   Google   ?
Or are you talking about other browsers,   like   e.g.   Edge   or
Internet Explorer   ?

My Chrome and Internet Explorer are working fine.

I made a dumb mistake earlier by mentioning   'Chrome',   when that should of course have been   'Google'. I apologize for that   !!!

Which method are you using for searching, or more specifically, which ones work and which ones do not work:

(1) Type into Firefox's address bar and press Enter or click the right-pointing arrow button

(2) Type into Firefox's search bar and press Enter or click the right-pointing arrow button or click the icon of the search engine you want to use

(3) Opening your preferred search engine's home page (for example, https://www.google.com/ https://www.bing.com/ https://www.yahoo.com/ ) and searching from the search box in its page

(4) A different method

I spent some time playing with my firefox and found that it was my home page causing the problem, switched it back to the default and all is well !!! Thank you all for your ideas and input, as that's what got me into a "tech state of mind" Haven't been able to access my mail service, which is also the same company as my old home page (incredimail) so it took me awhile to get my mail and reply....but again, thanx ! Now i have to figure out how to get my mail service up !chosen solution
