There are three search engines on my bar but when I try to type in words they don't come up on the search . No words or letters will go onto the search engine search slot

I'm not sure I understand how your toolbars are set up. The main navigation toolbar usually has a URL bar (address bar) which you can use to search (in Google by default), and a separate search bar/search box with a drop-down to choose a search engine. Do you have a different setup?

Could you reply with a screen shot (you can attach images using the Browse... button below the text compose box)? This article might help: How do I create a screenshot of my problem?

See:

Try to reset some preferences to the default with the SearchReset extension:

Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
