How do I change my tab settings so that opening new tabs doesn't jerk me off the page I'm on!? Trying to find simple answers is like pulling my own teeth!

I think the question is obvious.

In the Options window go to the Tabs panel and de-select the setting "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately"

  • Hi I would like to know, how do I add a Hyperlink on Flash, that opens a PDF in adobe reader and not the web browser.

    Hi I would like to know, how do I add a Hyperlink on Flash, that opens a PDF in adobe reader and not the web browser.

    Yoh, what is FSCCommanr ? sorry man I am an absolute beginner in Flash. I tried the code:
    /* Click to Go to Web Page
    Clicking on the specified symbol instance loads the URL in a new browser window.
    Instructions:
    1. Replace http://www.adobe.com with the desired URL address.
       Keep the quotation marks ("").
    instance_name_here.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage);
    function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage(event:MouseEvent):void {
      navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.adobe.com"), "_blank");
    this is the same code I used before and it opens a pdf file in a web browser, and it doesn't open an AutoCAD file.

  • HT1420 Feeling really stupid with my new MAC - I can't find the "Store" menu in iTunes as referenced in the support article on how to authorize a computer.  Where is that menu option?  I've looked all over the page, in my account, etc.

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

  • How do I enable double-click on toolbar to open new tab?

    I used to open a new empty tab by double clicking next to already opened tabs. This caused opening new one. This was removed in one of the updates :( I miss it a lot.

    Does it work when you start Firefox with Add-ons disabled? (''Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled'')
    *Do NOT check any boxes when entering Safe Mode, just click to continue
    *If it works in Safe Mode, then an extension is causing the problem and you must determine which extension.
    *To exit Safe Mode, click ''Firefox button > Exit'' OR ''File > Exit'', wait a few seconds (10-30) for Firefox to close completely, then use your Desktop icon to start Firefox.

  • How can I stop Mozilla and some extensions from opening new tabs every time I open firefox, even with no updates?

    I'm using Firefox 9.0.1 on a Windows 7 laptop. Since upgrading to 9.0 and then 9.0.1 Mozilla and Speed Dial open new tabs as if they've been updated, even though there has been no update. Colorful tabs 8.0 did it as well, but I disabled it.

    Do you have BitDefender (2010 e.g.) with its toolbar? If yes, remove it because the BD toolbar is known to be buggy and cause this issue (add-on compatibility check at each Firefox start).
    And report here the BD toolbar version you have.

  • Upgraded to latest 3.6, new tabs button does not open new tab?

    The new tab button highlights but does not open a new tab when I click on it.

    Try uninstalling the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.

  • When i open a new tab it continues to open new tabs until i end the session

    When I try to click on something in a website and it has to open a new tab to display it the computer continues to open new tabs until i get off the internet

    Specifically, which website, which web page, and which hyperlink on the webpage does that happen with?
    Typically, when this problem of an endless number of tabs or windows open with a single click, there is something set to open in Firefox that really isn't something which is intended to open and be viewed in Firefox.
    It might be a setting in Firefox that isn't proper or it could be the website is mis-configured, or it could be caused by an external application that has messed up a setting for Firefox or in the Registry.
    Not related to this problem, but you have three different versions of Flash in your Plugins listing in More System Details.
    Shockwave Flash 15.0 r0
    Shockwave Flash 11.9 r900
    Shockwave Flash 11.8 r800
    You should remove the two older Plugins.

  • Double Click on Tabe area does not open new tab any moee, why?

    I just updated (bad word because it is a serious DOWN grade) to 29.0. What a terrible mistake. If I wanted to use Chrome I would use Chrome. This version of FF is total shit.
    1) How do I get rid of that horrid big orange FF button?
    2) How do I re-enable double click on tab bar to open a new tab?
    3) How do I fix the navigation buttons (forward is ½ hidden under back)?
    4) How do I restore the colors (theme?) to my previous settings?
    5) Why is FF trying to be chrome anyway?

    To clarify, the list of previously or later visited pages does still show up when I right click on the navigation arrows in the Developer Version, but I cannot open any of the links in the list in a new tab with the mouse wheel or "Ctrl + Left Mouse Click".

  • HOW DO I CHANGE MY PRINT SETTINGS SO THAT THEY STAY SET TO MY PRINTER DEFAULTS?????????????????????????????????????????

    This one issue is probably the one thing that would make me abandon Firefox FOREVER (besides the problems with Flash). If I change print settings for ONE COPY I have nothing but HELL trying to get my print settings BACK to my PRINTER defaults. Why can't Firefox be like the REST of the computer world and have the PRINTER DEFAULTS override Firefox?????
    I made a change yesterday and I have NOT been able to get it changed BACK to the defaults.
    Is thois too complicated?

  • How do I change my startup settings?

    When I turn my computer on, about a dozen programs start up automatically -- which means I have to spend at least a minute closing or minimizing each one. How do I change my startup settings so that the programs only open manually, when I need them?
    Thanks!

    First go into Users and Groups, under your account, and see what login items you have. Remove any that might be causing the problem.
    Second, when you reboot or shut down, make sure that you don't have reopen windows checked - this is likley what's causing your problem.
    Third, check the applications that are opening via the Dock and make sure that you don't have Open at Login selected.
    Any one of these could cause applications to start when you reboot or start up.

  • My Firefox can no longer open new tabs. I click the icon but it does not work. How can I fix this?

    The "+" icon that opens new tabs does not open a tab.

    With Firefox version 4 and 5, the default setting is ''not'' to ask the question for saving the session. You can get back that behavior by modifying the options as below:<BR><BR>
    # In the address bar, type '''about:config''' and press Enter.
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of options.
    # In the '''Filter''' textbox at the top, type '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose'''
    # You will be presented with the entry for '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose'''. If its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''.
    # Repeat these steps for options''' browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning''' and set their values to '''true'''.
