The "about:config" move to restore the seach bar didn't work. I'm running OSX 10.9.5 on AOL/Firefox 37.0.1 on a mid 2007 intel iMac

I changed the "browser.search.show.OneOffButtons" boolean to "False" and restarted Firefox. When it didn't restore the search bar I went back and made sure it was entered as "False" and restarted again - no go.

I don't know where to go to search - Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks

Maybe this isn't supported or otherwise overridden by the Firefox version that you use.

Download a new copy of the Firefox application from the Mozilla server and save the disk image file to the desktop

Your personal data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox profile folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data when you uninstall and (re)install or update Firefox.

I did what you suggested and got the same result. I re-checked the boolean and it was set to "False"

Any other ideas and/or folks I can check in with about this?

Thanks for your input, Russ

This is still a Boolean pref?

Hello Russ, cor-el

maybe it is stupid question... but the preference you mention is browser.search.showOneOffButtons (with out the dot [.] between show and One), did you create the browser.search.show.OneOffButtons (with the dot) ?

thanks

I didn't create the preference - I just clicked on the one listed on the Firefox "about:config" page
