Multiple Google search function error messages

I have used the Google search function for months without incident until the CC site was recently updated. Now, without fail, every time I attempt to search with Google I receive an error message. I have tried both Safari and Firefox plus have re-logged in several times and am still not successful.

Although, I rarely post, I certainly value CC as a great resource. I have vainly tried to poke around the site to see if others are also having this issue. Is it a mac thing or....?

I would greatly appreciate any insights.

Thanks!

Thank you to whomever moved this to the right forum. Somehow, I never knew there was a place for 'issues' threads....perhaps I haven't scrolled down far enough on the main page. I will check out other threads to find the answer to my concern.....hopefully there will be some insights somewhere.

Since no other solutions seem to be forthcoming, I have found a Google search work-around. I now leave CC and go to the Google website's advanced search engine; I plug in my request parameters and direct it to only search the collegeconfidential.com domain.

It adds a few steps but gets me the information I am seeking. I still have hope that the direct CC Google search will work for me again someday without getting error messages.

There are several threads on this topic. Google search seems to be disabled.
