== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:

I can't get Firefox to open a new tab each time I click on a link or favorite. It keeps loading onto the current tab.

I went to Tools>Options>Tabs and entered a check mark next to the first entry, "Open New Windows in a New Tab Instead" but it still does not open a new tab each time I click on a link or one of my favorites. It used to way back in earlier versions of Firefox but hasn't for the past few iterations...am I doing something wrong or do I need to activate something else within Firefox?

'''''"I went to Tools>Options>Tabs and entered a check mark next to the first entry, "Open New Windows in a New Tab Instead" but it still does not open a new tab each time I click on a link or one of my favorites."'''''
That option only controls pages that would open in a new window based on the code on the website page you are visiting.
Firefox's default is to open a link or a Bookmark in the currently selected tab.
You have some options to have links and/or Bookmarks open in a new tab:
*middle-click the link or Bookmark (middle-click = press the mouse scroll wheel)
*CTRL+left-click the link or Bookmark
*right-click the link or Bookmark and choose "Open in New Tab"
*install one of the following and set the options to automatically open links or Bookmarks in a new tab:

How can I set Firefox to open a new e-mail window from a contact link in a web site in Gmail rather than in Microsoft Outlook?

When I click on a "Contact Us" e-mail link in a web site, Firefox opens the blank e-mail window in Microsoft Outlook. I rarely use that program any more; I use Gmail instead. Is there anyway I can change the settings in Firefox so that it will open a Gmail window instead?

How do i set firefox to open a new tab with a specified web page..?

Ive just installed firefox 5, and when i open a new tab, it open with a blank page. My previous version of firefox opened with my most visited pages as thumbnails. Can i revert to this setup, or can i set firefox 5 to open a new tab with a specified web page e.g google news...?

No this isnt the problem. I want it to open a new tab with Google Search page and not with the big showcase of all my other pages.

How can I stop Firefox from opening a new Tab as Babylon Search?

So I recently downloaded Babylon (for an offer), and Babylon search started to open when I open a new Tab. I've uninstalled the Babylon program and the Search Add-On, but it still keeps on opening. is there any possible way that I can fix this? I want to open my new Tab as a blank page.

Hello, i'll teach you how:
# First, at the web address, go to about:config
# When a warning shows up, just hit "I'll be careful, I promise!"
# Then at the search bar, just type this - browser.newtab.url
# Just right click on the result, and hit "Reset"
View the picture I've attached for reference.
That's it!

How can I force firefox to open every new window at full size of the screen ?

When I firefox, it reloads my opened windows, but not always at full size.
So I have to resize each window manualy.
Is it possible to force firefox to open every window at full size of the screen ?
Or is it possible to Maximize every window already open in one click ? (like the use of CTRL key in Windows)

Try experimenting with this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
By the way, if you have McAfee Site Advisor installed, disable it because it interferes with the way Firefox functions.

How do I stop Firefox from opening a new tab every time I open an Adobe file in Acrobat?

Every time I open a file in Acrobat, an empty blank tab opens in Mozilla Firefox browser. How can I stop this? Thank you.

I want Firefox to open a new session each time I use it rather than to try to recover my previous one; how do I go about this?

What more details do you need? I want to open a new session when I use your product rather than have the product go through the slow tedious process of trying to recreate the previous session.

Please see this support article on [[Session Restore]]. Follow the instructions under the "Configuring session restore" header. When you get to the step where it says "Show my windows and tabs from last time" you can choose from showing your homepage or showing a blank page instead.

How can i stop firefox from opening a new tab everytime I click anything on the browser

whenever I click or point anywhere on firefox, a new tab will open to http://download-start.com/?aspid=a278a0e56df428562d5072bf6b4dbdeb&SourceId=355&CreativeId=18399430&LineItemId=5734966&PublisherId=619892&SectionId=177555785&ymid=00011da109fa63fd94898b658da047f783b81 and it is so annoying as even clicking on the scroll bar will open this tab. please help me find solution to this. I can't even finish typing this because I had to scroll down to see the full page.

hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by malware on your pc. please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and do a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

How can I force Firefox to open a new window (tab) a certain size. I need a smaller box but it always opens full screen.

I get tired of having to click on the upper right box every time I need the smaller window, which is VERY frequently. I teach college online and need to see only a portion of the large screen as the rest may distract me while grading. This COULD prove unfair to my students.

Don't know if this is the answer you want, but it gives you an idea of what you can do.
* Using the window.open method http://www.javascript-coder.com/window-popup/javascript-window-open.phtml
You can resize an existing window with a bookmarklet, but you would have to be able to initiate the bookmarklet from the window.
* javascript:self.resizeTo(642,364);self.moveTo(0,0);
* http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/kws.htm look for "resize -" in the k.html file listed.

How can I set Firefox to print to PDF, the only otions I have are (1) My Canon printer, (2) Fax or (3) Microsoft XPS document writer. There is no option for PDF

A couple of weeks ago, from the file menu, in my print options was to print a web page to PDF, that facility is no longer there. does anyone know how can I set Firefox to print to PDF.
The only options I have are (1) My Canon printer, (2) Fax or (3) Microsoft XPS document writer. There is no option for PDF

Firefox generally displays the printers in Windows' Printers folder (Start orb > Devices and Printers). If it is missing one of the printers listed there, could you indicate which one it is, for example, Adobe Distiller, PrimoPDF, CutePDF Writer, etc.?
If you previously had an add-on which added print-to-PDF functionality just to Firefox, perhaps it got disabled. You could check here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions
Also, are you really running Firefox 8.0.1? That version from last November is no longer secure and has been superseded by Firefox 11. If you browse the web widely, you should update for your security.

How do I set Firefox to open new windows in a separate window (not in tabs)?

How do I set Firefox to open new windows in a separate window (not in tabs)?

Click the orange Firefox button, and click "Options". This will bring up a new window with a "Tabs" tab at the top. Click that. There will be several checked boxes, including one called "Open new windows in a new tab instead" up at the top of the list. Uncheck that box and you should be good to go.
ETA: This should also work if you click "Tools" and "Options" within your version.

In my received emails, how can I get Firefox to open URL links that begin with "click."?

In my emails, how can I get Firefox to open links that begin with the word "click."? Instead of giving the me the message that says, for example, "Firefox can't find the server at click.americas.links.hp.com." This also happens when I try to open the links using Explorer.

This link was not valid when I clicked it. Please contact the person sending these links they do not seem to work. The page takes me to a page that says it will load after 5 seconds, however there is not valid link.
