Addon manager doesnt open in tab. how to change?

My addon manager opens in a floating window, but i want it to open in tab. How can i change that?

how can I get it to be back to the small popup window for the add-on. prefrence even thou I still aviod it because i still love the old style and SeaMonkey still has that whew. But those are nice and small and clean and easy to use and aren't big and bulky like the new add-on manager. But how can I get the popup dialog . anything in about::config I can hack ? I'd love to see the option for the classic views its a much better option and more fair to people. I also hate the fact when I click the add-on it auto move me to that tab. I have that turned of with middle click. would be nice if it was a middle click option . But even then I'd hope it does auto take me there. Hot mail too thats what the middle click is for to open another tab if you want but as I said witht he option to go to it then and there ot when you want to. Seamonkey 2.1a3 it still works right so I dunno what wrong with firefox . thats all the same things like ie :( . I don't like annoying popups but a config small popup is fine thanks

  • When opening new tab, how to make me able to type in the adress bar directly without clicking on it? -- (about:config reset and add-on doesn't work)

    Hi all,
    Need a help relating New Tab on Mozilla.
    I want to be able to directly type in the address bar everytime I open a new tab in Mozilla, without clicking anything. To be clearer, it means that everytime I open the new tab, the blinking cursor is already on the address bar.
    What's happening right now is everytime I open new tab, the cursor is not placed anywhere--not on the search bar on the page, not on the address bar. I should put the cursor somewhere to do something.
    I tried using the about:config reset (1) and installing custom new tab (2), but both do not work.
    When I tried the about:config reset the Reset button is not highlighted (I assume it means it's default already), and the Custom New Tab doesn't yield in different result.
    What confuse me is 2 days ago my Mozilla works just fine. Everytime I opened a new tab, the blinking cursor was on the address bar and I was able to type directly.
    Thank you and appreciate the help!!
    Note:
    (1) about:config reset:
    - Type about:config into the address bar and press Enter.
    - To bypass the warning, press the big button labeled "I'll be careful, I promise!".
    - In the search box, paste browser.newtab.url
    - In the search results, right-click browser.newtab.url and choose Reset.
    (2) Custom Add On reset:
    - Install Custom New Tab. = https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/custom-new-tab/
    - Open the Add-ons Manager (Ctrl+Shift+A; Mac: Command+Shift+A), then the Extensions category.
    - Next to Custom New Tab, click the Options button.
    - Set whatever page you want to open in each new tab (about:newtab is the default; about:home is the default home page), and make sure "Place focus in URL bar" is not checked.

    ok, as a follow up i'd recommend disabling half of the addons & restarting the browser - if the problem continues disable the other half & continue until you've narrowed it down to the culprit...
    </blockquote>
    Hi Philipp,
    I read the link you copied on the first post and also tried your recommendation above. None seem to work. Even if I disable all add-ons, the problem still persists.
    One other info, this problem seem to appear after I installed several program yesterday. These programs apparently installed other programs that set my homepage and main search engine to a particular website. But I installed all of these programs already. Would that be a cause of the problem?
    Thanks.

  • When I open new tabs, how do I set my tabs to open to the same web page every time?

    I have my home page set, but I don't see an option to set what site my tabs open with. I did have a website opening in my tabs, but it wasn't a change I made. According to one of the help articles, an extension may have changed what site kept appearing in new tabs. Now, my tabs are back to the eight tiles, but I'd like to set them to a specific website. How do I make this change to my tabs?

    You will have to open the <b>about:config</b> page and set the new tab page by changing the value of the browser.newtab.url pref via the right-click context menu as stated in the KB article.
    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • Firefox on my laptop will not allow me to open multiple tabs, how can I fix this issue?

    I usually use firefox and yesterday was downloading a photoshop program called gimp. all of a sudden after downloading it, firefox stops allowing me to open multiple tabs. I click on file and new tab, but it still will not work.

    The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  • Bookmark Toolbar buttons open new tabs - how do I get them to open bookmark in current tab?

    I've got the bookmark toolbar with buttons for all my bookmark links. However, when I click on one, it opens the page in a new tab. I would like those bookmark buttons to open in the current tab.

    Right-click on the bookmark button. Depending on any add-ins you have, the context menu may offer you a range of options e.g. Open (in existing tab), Open in New Tab, Open in New window, etc
    Try the Tab Mix Plus add-in.

  • Opens new tab instead of changing page within a frame.

    V 22: When I open site with frame header & left navigation home page is fine. When I click to navigate to different page, frame header & navigation buttons are gone. Only content of new page is displayed. Site is control page for access point on network. IE and Chrome work just fine.
    This is new behavior. Started after update to Release 22.0

    Hi,
    I have the same problem. After checking settings and add-ons, I discovered that the add-on for Dragon Naturally Speaking seemed to be causing the problem. Probably a feature of DNS. When I disabled the DNS add-on, Firefox behaved correctly.

  • On eBay, when I click "enlarge" for item picture, the new window opens off screen; how can change the default location?

    It used to be that when I clicked "enlarge" under the item picture, on items that offer this feature, the new window opened to the left of the screen, which is useful. Now, however, only the left-hand edge of the new window with the enlarged image is visible on the right hand side of my screen and I have to pull it across every time, which gets annoying. I think this started after I created two windows in eBay, one of which was on the right of my screen. Now it seems that the enlarged image window always opens where the second of the two eBay windows was located.
    I look forward to your suggestions.
    Thanks, Simon

    Ok, I figured it out, I clicked "i don't have device available" and it let me log in to my account.

  • How to change the name of HFM EPMA Application while migrating from dev to

    We have HFM EPMA application in Dev env on 11.1.2.2. We want to migrate aplication to production environment with different name. We are using Life cycle management to migrate the application. I know life cycle management but do not know how to change the application name during migration.
    As we have EPMA application so copy utility will not work. Please helop.

    Hi ,
    You could use the Copy app utility to migrate the application from Dev to Prod.You could have your desired app name while setting up the copy process.
    The EPMA application from Dev will be converted to an Classic application in Prod after the copy.
    Then you might need to use the "Transform Classic to EPM Architect" and convert it to an EPMA application.
    So your Application with the data from Dev will be moved to Prod.
    To Navigate ,
    Launch Workspace
    Navigate ->Administer->Transform Classic to EPM Architect
    Thanks and regards,

  • When I open new tabs it is an AOL tab. I have Fire F as my homepage? How do I change this?

    I set my home page to mozilla or yahoo, but when I open new tabs it keeps bringing up AOL search engine. I don't want this b/c it is useless and always brings up irrelevant search results. How do I change what tabs open up after homepage is set?

    You should just be able to choose whatever search engine you prefer

    There is however a possibility you may have some toolbar or other software installed that is changing setting. Initially look in your Firefox addons and Windows control panel for unwanted software

  • Since adding a new addon, my addon manager won't stay open.

    I recently got an email from Firefox with the top addons of 2014. So I downloaded a couple. But now, when I open the Addons Manager, it only stays open for a fraction of a second and then opens a new tab in Firefox with an advertisement for Garmin. How do I stop it from doing that?
    https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/maps/on-the-trail-maps/topo/topo-canada/prod1016.html?zebratwo=CJ&utm_source=CJ&utm_medium=Text&utm_campaign=Maps

    Good. Now you have access. And confirmed that it is the add-on.
    Do you remember the name of the add-on you think is the problem?
    Type '''about:addons'''<Enter> in the address bar to open your Add-ons Manager.
    Hot key; '''<Control>''(Mac:<Command>)''<Shift> A)'''
    In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select '''Extensions.'''
    Disable a few add-ons, then '''Restart Firefox.'''
    Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause
    Firefox issues. '''Disable All of them.'''
    If the problem continues, disable some more (restarting FF). Continue until
    the problem is gone. After, you know what group is causing the issue.
    Re-enable the last group '''ONE AT A TIME''' (restarting FF) until the problem returns.
    Once you think you found the problem, disable that and re-enable all the
    others, then restart again. Let us know who the suspect is detective.

  • How to change keyboard shortcut for cycle through open tabs in PS and AI CC 2014

    I would love to set my own keyboard shortcuts for cycling through open tabs in PS and AI 2014 on OS X. I found out that this can be achieved with ctrl+tab in PS, but I couldn't manage to make any of the suggestions in the forum work for AI. As said, I would like to set a more "standard" shortcut like alt+cmd+arrow-keys for both of the apps. If that shouldn't be possible, does anyone know a shortcut in AI CC 2014?
    Many thanks!
    Amadeus

    Thanks! The shortcut can be set like this in AI, although all key combinations I would want to use are not allowed. Too bad. But anyways, thank you very much for the tip!
    cmd+~ is not an option for me, I guess, since the swiss/german keyboard layout has no dedicated tilde key.
    So, I have a working shortcut in PS (ctrl+tab / of which I still don't know how to change, if possible at all) and thanks to you, I can now set one in AI as well. Unfortunately, I can not set it to be identical as in PS, since the "cmd" key needs to be included in AI's shortcut assignment dialogue, but I guess, this is as good as it gets.

  • You changed the order of the menu for "Open in a new window" or "Open in new Tab", How can I change it back? Or how can I omit any reference to tabs? I do not use them at all.

  • How can I actually open multiple tabs of the same site, instead of performing the new "switch to tab" action?

    For example, sometimes I would like to open multiple tabs of Google Maps to get directions to multiple locations, and I haven't found a way to do so without open a new instance of the browser. Thanks.

    This one colors tabs, but the author warns that it doesn't work with other tab-related extensions, so you probably need to keep searching for one that does everything you want:
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/colorfultabs/
    If you don't find a do-it-all extension, you can modify the tab titles with a userscript that is specific to that website. This is because the tab displays the text designated in the page as its title.
    You either could "hard code" the list of words for each of the pages, or you could have a script extract information from the page, for example, the first main heading, or some other predictable bit of data. The script then would insert your preferred wording as the title of the page and Firefox will show that on the tab.
    To see how that appears, so you know whether it would be useful, you could do this experiment:
    On a web page that has useless tab text, open the Web Console using command+alt+k (Windows: Ctrl+Shift+k). In the line at the bottom next to the caret, paste the following code and press Enter:
    document.title="Magic!";
    If you decide you want a script written for this, you could try the request forum on userscripts''.''org:
    [http://userscripts.org/forums/2 Ideas and script requests - Userscripts.org]
    Although some people offer small payments, that usually isn't necessary to motivate people to help.
    Let me give you a brief warning about that site, though: over the past year, a lot of popular scripts were duplicated and reposted with additional code that hijacks your Facebook account. Be cautious when installing scripts, check the reviews, make sure there are no references to Facebook.
