Hello Shaunnie,

It seems you want to change your Search Engine preference back to Google and your homepage too. If it is so please follow these steps:

  1. Open the website you want to set as your home page. If you want a blank home page, open a new tab.
  2. Click the icon to the left of the web address, drag it to the Home button, and release.
  3. Click Yes to set this as your home page.

Try it out: Click the Home button and your new home page will load in the current tab. It doesn’t get much easier than that!


And now for your search engine, to change it back to Google click on the small Drop-down Arrow Button Next to Yahoo icon in the Box, and then select Manage Search Engine or Select Google if you see it already listed there.


See the images for help.

Note that current Firefox versions use the search engine that is selected in the search bar (click the search engine icon to open the drop down list) on the Navigation Toolbar for searching via the location bar and for the search engine on the about:home page.

If you want to use different search engines then you can install the Keyword Search extension to specify with search engine to use for the location bar and which search engine to use for the about:home page via the Options/Preferences windows of this extension, accessible via the about:addons page (Firefox > Add-ons).
