I can't get firefox to change search from google
I have tried setting the preference but it still searches google from the address bar.
Any suggestions?

I noticed you have two different keyword search extensions, so before describing the built-in settings, it probably would be best to understand:
- What search engine do you want to use in the address bar?
- Do you need special features of that search engine?
- Or do you want Firefox to never search from the address bar?
By the way, the Keyword Search extension's settings are available on the Add-ons page. Either:
- Command+Shift+a
- "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the right side, find Keyword Search and click its Options button.
I am not familiar with the other one.
