My address bar no longer does searches for non-URL words.
I used to be able to use the address bar to do general searches, like if I type in "bunny" it would do a google search for that word. Now it just gives me a "page not found". I checked the about:config setting for "keyword.enabled" and it says "true". How can I get this feature back?

Please see the support article on Location bar autocomplete:

The functionality in Firefox has changed some. Sometimes people type in a keyword and make a typo, and can then be directed to an unwanted page. The new functionality helps to keep that from happening, and it helps with security.
You might find the information at:
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Location%20bar%20search
to be helpful to you, as it shows you how to disable the default keyword search behavior that gives the results you are describing.
To use the feature, you should use <domain name> <subject> for the lookup to work best. E.g., espn football

You can modify the pref keyword.URL on the about:config page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or Google's "Browse By Name".
