Middle mosue button don't open a link on a new tab, the button works for scrolling etc.

Middle mosue button don't open a link on a new tab, the button works for scrolling etc. Thats teh problem, seem like I'm the only with the problem...

I had the same problem. If you're running Greasemonkey, you need to update it. There's a conflict between Greasemonkey 0.9.10 and Tab Mix Plus on Firefox 6.0.2. Until the add-ons site approves Greasemonkey 0.9.11, you'll have to install it manually.

  • "When I open a link in a new tab, switch.." Doesnt work correctly

    I'm using Firefox 28.0 (Waterfox build)
    I've verified that:
    - browser.tabs.loadInBackground: False
    - browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground: True
    - "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" is enabled in the UI.
    It seems only some websites actually switch to the new tab. Also, sometimes, this feature will stop working all together; requiring me to toggle the Firefox UI setting and/or restart firefox.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Sometimes when I open a link in a new tab and then switch to the tab, the address bar clears and the website won't open.

    Sometimes when I open a link in a new tab and then switch to the tab, the address bar clears and I'll have to re open the tab and hope that doesn't happen again. Sometimes this happens again and again. Most of the times if I just open the link in a new tab and don't switch to it, this won't happen. But as I switch too the tab, the text would disappear and the link wouldn't open.

  • The ctrl+click method of opening a link in a new tab has changed to opening in a new window. How do I open in a new tab with a hotkey/change the hotkey back?

    This is consistent and started with the beta.

    I have no problem with {Ctrl + Click} opening a link in a new Tab in 4.0b9. And {Shft + Click} still opens a link in a new Window.
    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

  • How to Open External Links in a New Tab

    I want links in web pages to open in the current tab so I have browser.link.open_newwindow=1. But how do I make links from extenal applications open in a new tab?

    Try setting the following to 3, not really sure if preference was actually removed or just won't accept 2, the intent was that the two variables be the same (I think)
    browser.link.open_external -- Where to open links sent to the browser from an external application
    * 2 (default in SeaMonkey): Opens external links in a new window
    * 3 (default in Firefox): Opens external links in a new tab in the most recent window
    * 1 (or anything else): Opens external links in current window
    Note: In Firefox 2 and above, via “Tools → Options → Tabs → New pages should be opened in:” (same as browser.link. open_newwindow)
    Pref removed from Firefox 3.5

  • It is possible to switch immediately to the new tab when I open a link in a new tab

    When I open a link in a new tab, Firefox does not switches to the new tab!
    Is there an option like desktop firefox?
    tools -> options -> tabs -> "switch to new tab immediately"

    Gosu,
    As already stated, it doesn't work. I have filed a bug in bugzilla.

  • How do I make middle click open a link in a new tab?

    Previously, when I clicked a link using the wheel click on my mouse, it opened the link in a new tab. I recently updated firefox, and now if I middle click (wheel click) on a link in Firefox, nothing happens. I just want this feature back. I tried looking in my mouse settings but could not find a relevant setting there. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I should add: I have also lost the ability to middle click on a tab to close it.

  • Using Firefox 4.0 Beta 4. When I open a link in a new window, the web address does not show in the location bar. Why?

    When I open a web page link in "a new window" the link opens, but the web page information does not appear in the location bar. It is blank. If I open the link in a new tab, there is ho problem.
    Further, if a open a link from the tab without a location in a new tab on the same window and then go back to the original tab, the location bar fills with the web address.
    Have done this starting in several locations, so it not location dependent.

    That behaviour is likely top be caused by an add-on, and in your case the likely culprit is IE Tab 2, the various versions of IE Tab have caused problems with Firefox 4 beta including issues with the location bar not being updated.
    You can test to see if IE Tab 2 is causing your problem by disabling it and then seeing if the location bar in a new window shows the address. If it is not that add-on causing the problem, see [[troubleshooting extensions and themes]].
    For info, the IE Tab Plus add-on has been updated recently to improve compatibility with Firefox 4 beta, you may want to try that one instead. The latest version is available from http://coralietab.mozdev.org/installation.html

  • "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" option has no effect on command+clicking on links.

    Whether this option is ticked or un-ticked, command+clicking a link will open the link in a new tab and immediately switch to it.
    Is it possible to change this behavior so that command+clicking on a link will open the link in a new tab in the background?

    Did you try to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting?
    Does holding down the Shift key in addition (i.e. Command + Shift and a left-click) has any effect?

  • Command + right click won't open a link in a new tab.

    A while after I'd updated FireFox (not immediately after the update, it took a few days) pressing command and clicking a link wouldn't open the link in a new tab anymore. Other tab-related shortcuts do work, just not this one. It doesn't matter which site I'm on or whether the site uses flash etc.

    I have also just had this problem and un-installing the Ask toolbar has done the trick straight away :D Thank you!

  • When I open an item/link in a new tab, the new tab doesn't reflect the appropriate url

    When I open a new tab, the url reflects the old tab.
    For example, I downloaded the addon that allows you to determine what the new tab will display. I picked google. Well, google, opens alright, but the new URL reflects Yahoo.com, which is where I WAS. This seems pretty wonky to me. How do I fix it.

  • Using a mac OSX and a logitech M-UAG120 mouse, how do I use the wheel button to open a link in a new tab (but not switch to it)? Can't type a key in box.

    In the logitech control center I've clicked on my mouse (tilt wheel mouse), clicked on 'wheel button', and in the dropdown menu selected keystroke. Under 'configure keystroke', there's a "type a key..." box, and to the right, there's a "choose any modifier" selection.
    On this web page, http://www.accessfirefox.org/Firefox_Keyboard_and_Mouse_Shortcuts.html, the instruction for 'open link in new tab' is Cmd+Return Cmd+Click
    On this page, https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/mouse-shortcuts-perform-common-tasks, the instruction for 'open link in new tab' is command+Left-click link Middle-click link
    I cannot figure out how to type these in correctly to make the function work.
    Help please?
    Thank you all.

    I do not know what the standard setting is. In my Mac system preferences, when I access the Logitech Control Center, I click on "wheel button" (button 3), and get a drop down menu with the following choices:
    Nothing<br />
    Click<br />
    Advanced Click<br />
    Cruise<br />
    Horizontal Scroll<br />
    Keystroke<br />
    Modifiers<br />
    Open Application<br />
    Open Document<br />
    Open Folder<br />
    Open Web Page<br />

    One-Touch Search<br />
    Quick Look<br />
    Screen Capture<br />
    Sound Control<br />
    Switch Application<br />
    Zoom
    I'm lost here. The mouse used to do it, then I needed to unplug it, and when I set it up again, the wheel button is inert when used on a link.
