How can I turn off tabbed browsing in Firefox 4.0 running in windows 7? I don't want tabs at all. If it can't be done, how can I go back to a previous version?

I upgraded to 4.0 and now everything wants to open in a new tab. I don't want tabs at all. How do I turn them off? I have to use IE at work and have no problem turning off tabs there, but I haven't found the way to get rid of tabs in Firefox 4.0.

That is not standard behavior. You may have installed an extension that causes it.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • How can I turn off or disable/remove firefox 36 so that my browser only uses adobe flash?

    When I'm completing online training for my airline work, I get a warning from their site detecting that it is running firefox 36 instead of adobe flash and I can't proceed to launch the window which will work just fine outside of firefox. Is there a way I can disable firefox 36 so that it doesn't use the mozilla version but only uses adobe flash player to launch the app?

    I think it would be easiest to load your training in Internet Explorer instead of Firefox. You don't need to remove Firefox to do that. You might need to change your default browser from Firefox to Internet Explorer. Here's how:

  • How can I turn off inherent features of Firefox? (Specifically, it automatically loads and displays the next page, but it will load OVER the current page)

    With this version of Firefox, it automatically loads the 'next' page. When I'm reading blogs, when I click to go back, it automatically loads the first page of the blog as the 'next' page I want to go to. However, it will load this page OVER the page I am on, so that I cannot see it. With some blogs, it is so extreme, I cannot use Firefox on them at all. This isn't an add-on or anything, and I cannot find it in the preferences panel. Can I turn it off somehow/is there a way to in Firefox 4?

    That is not standard behavior. You may have installed an extension that causes it.

  • How can I turn off "Google Suggest" in Firefox. I hate it! hate it! hate it!

    Firefox used to allow turning off "Google Suggest", but that's not possible with recent updates. I never, never, never (never!) want what "Google Suggest" insists on presenting to me. It's really inconvenient and a time waster.

    Do you mean when you type a search, it will give a list of things before you have finished?, a pain....I'm sure there is something to the right of the search box that has a drop down menu, you can de-select it from there
    hope this helps

  • How do I turn off the hover-to-select in the organize bookmarks window?

    I want to turn off the "hover to select" mechanism in the "organize bookmarks" window (or dramatically increase the time until the selection happens). When I am organizing bookmarks, it keeps going to the wrong folder when I am trying to drag bookmarks from one folder to another. It is extremely aggravating to have a timer-based selection because I just happen to take a little too long to move the mouse to the folder I actually want to drop the bookmarks into. This happens to me almost every time I go to organize bookmarks.
    I apologize if this has been answered before, but I did a search for this issue and was not able to find a solution, but maybe I did not choose the right keywords to find it.

    hello, you could try this - enter '''about:config''' into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''toolkit.startup.max_resumed_crashes'''. double-click it and change its value to something very high like '''999999''' (maybe setting it to <s>0 or</s> -1 will also work, however i haven't tried that myself).

  • How can I turn off your browser pop-up adds at the bottom?

    Since your most update of Firefox software your advertising is annoying and a work distraction. I want to stop them , turn them off. Can I do that?

    Hi sgramzay, I am sorry to heir that you are having problems with adds. I want you to know that it is not from Firefox or Mozilla. I do have a way so that you will not be seeing any more of those adds. All you have to do is go to the Add-ons on Firefox and download Add block plus. This is one of the best blocks for Adds.

  • How do i turn off password manager on firefox 18, the option box is ticked but shaded so i can't untick it

    I am prompted every time i visit a site that i enter a password on to save it in firefox 18, it's now getting annoying. I have tried to turn it off, but the box in firefox settings is shaded and won't allow me to turn password manager off, i know i can choose "never for this site" in the settings but with just about every site you go to now requires you to sign in it is really getting on my nerves. if this can't be resolved i may reluctantly have to change browser.

  • How do I turn off private browsing in iOS7.1 on my iPad Air

    I looked through the manual and in Support on line. It tells me to go to Settings>Safari> Privacy. I did that and could not find a 'Privacy' button or tab.

    That sounds like old information to me. Private Browsing in Safari in iOS 7 is a link you tap in Safari. For information with a screen shot, see:
    http://ipad.about.com/od/ipad_basics/ss/How-To-Enable-Cookies-Turn-On-Private-Br owsing-And-Other-iPad-Safari-Settings.htm
    If Private Browsing is on, the address bar will be dark grey and the Private link till be white text on a blue background. Just tap that again.
    Regards.
