How do I open a new tab? None of the options work for me.
I've tried:
1. Clicking the "+" icon next to my current tab
2. Going to "File -> New Tab"
3. Using the "Ctrl - T" keyboard shortcut
4. Restarting Firefox
5. Restarting my computer (Windows 7 laptop)
6. Downloading all possible updates -> Restarting my computer
... Opening a link on the current web page DOES work...
The Ask Toolbar has been 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

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
An app changed it to some other search engine, before installing the app, I the tab that would open was the homepage I set.
In my case it is Google, and I want my new tabs to open on Google like they did before the installation.
thank you,
Asaf Privman.You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at one of these extensions:

How do i open a new tab similar to using ctrl+k in ie?
how do i open a new tab similar to using ctrl+k in ie?
Try Ctrl+t
Most of the shortcuts should be listed on the full menus. To display the classic menu bar, tap the Alt key or press F10.
Oops, sorry, Ctrl+k duplicates the current tab. To do that in Firefox, click in the URL of the page and press Alt+Enter.
There also might be an add-on that creates a more convenient method. -

How do I open a new tab from address line?
You Will have to hold down the Alt key and press Enter to make the link open in a new tab without using an extension.
By default links always open in the same tab.
You can search the Add-ons website for an extension if you want to change this default behavior. -
when i open a new tab, rather than the curser flashing in the url window it opens a new search page. a new tab used to open at the url - how do i get it to do so again?
A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

How can I open a new tab not right next to the one I open from but next to the last?
Before I switched to the current version of Firefox, the new tab that I would open, was opening right after the last open tab previously opened.
Now if I have 4 tabs open and I open a new tab from inside the first one, the new tab opens as number 2 tab.
Is there an option that toggles the opening sequence ?A couple of methods, first use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/61766/ New Tabs at the End] add-on. The second method involves changing a hidden preference.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# In the filter box type '''related'''
# Double-click on the preference browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent to change its value to '''false''' -
I have Firefox 4.0.1 installed on two laptops, one with Windows Vista, 64 bit and the other with Windows XP. Both machines have the "Open a new tab" icon on the far right of the Bookmarks tool bar. The XP machine also has a + icon on the tab bar to "Open a new tab" while the Vista machine does not have that + icon. I like using that; is there any way to get it on the Vista machine?
After weeks of trying, I stumbled on the solution:
# Right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip, select Customize... and the Customize Toolbar window will open.
# At the bottom of the Customize Toolbar window, there are additional options for changing the appearance of the icons in your toolbars. From the Show drop-down menu, you can choose what to display in the toolbars — Icons, Text, or Icons and Text together. By default, Firefox just shows Icons.
# Select Icons and Text
# When you are finished making changes, click Done to close the Customize Toolbar window. -
Hi, I have read the article about shortcuts, I didn't know all of that was possible.
But I did not find the only thing I was looking for.
I generally have lot of tabs open.
So often I need to open a new tab next to the one I am working in (the one with focus).
But when I press ctrl+t the new tab is opened at the end of all other tabs, and I need to move it where I want.
Is there a quickest way to open it directly there, next to the one with focus?
ThanksHi again
I think an addon may provide the service you are looking for. I looked about and found a few . Hope it meets your needs.

"open a new tab" buttton on the toolbar does not insert new tab after current
I want the open a new tab button at the right end of the tab bar to open a new tab after the currently open tab the same way the browser does when the browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent profile option is set to true.
This current behavior is VERY annoying as I always have many tabs open and then have to scroll all the way to the right of the tab bar and drag the new tab back to where I want it, which is always following the currently active tab.
Not sure if this was ever supported but if not I used to run Tabberwoky which no longer works and I've become quite fond of the feature and I need to make Firefox 8 do this.
Please tell me how, not that I can't or should do it some other way.
Thanks.That did it! Sure saves me trying to figure out how to write an extension to do it but if there is a simple example similar to my request that the source code is available for so I can take a look at it to see how its done the link to it would be appreciated.
Thanks for the help! -

When I open a new window, none of the UI changes I make regarding add-ons are there.
When I open a new window, none of the UI changes I make regarding add-ons are there. They all disappear from all new windows and cannot be re-added unless I restart my computer, where I can put the elements on ONE window again. This has happened consistantly with every ui modifying element from all of my addons. Please help as I need these elements on every new window and hate tabs.

If you haven't done that yet then create a new profile exclusively for the 4.0 beta version and create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch that profile.

I'm using FF 3.5.18 and I do not want newer versions because : using in the Open in New Tab page opens the near tab and not as a FF 3.5.18 or is it possible to do that open in new tabs would be the end. of the new FF version
You can change a preference to make tabs open
# at the end of all open tabs
# immediately after the current tab.
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config
*Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and press the Enter key.
*If you see the warning, accept it (promise to be careful).
*Filter = browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent
*Look at the "Value" column ('''false'''=open at end, '''true'''=open after current tab); Value = true is the default.
*Double-click that preference to toggle the value from true to false, or false to true
*Restart Firefox (File > Restart Firefox)
