Hey gencoglu,

You can try deleting search.sqlite and search.json in the Firefox Profile folder. There is also this article about search issues that might help.

Hopefully this helps!

If you are talking about the search container on the default about:home page under the Firefox logo ...

Firefox button > Web Developer -> Scratchpad -
copy and paste this script into Scratchpad > then hit Execute > Run

 
javascript:{localStorage["search-engine"]="{\"name\":\"Google\",\"searchUrl\":\"http://www.google.com/search?q=_searchTerms_&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a\"}";void(0);}

If the search bar isn't working then reset the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone pref to the default via the right-click context menu.
Close and restart Firefox.
