Sometimes when I open a link in a new tab, the new tab does not load the link.

Sometimes when I open a link in a new tab, the new tab does not load the link. This seems to be random.
Win 7 64
FF 4.0.1

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
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).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • 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.

    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).

    In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • On my MacBook with Lion Safari does start, does not react immediately after trying to open it. Installing a new Safari does not help. Removing parts of Safari in the Library did not help. Where can I find and remove all components (LastSession ...)?

    How can I reset Safari with all components? On my MacBook with Lion, Safari does not start, does not react immediately after trying to open it. Installing a new Safari does not help. Removing parts of Safari in the Library does not help. Where can I find and remove all components as LastSession and TopSites?

    The only way to reinstall Safari on a Mac running v10.7 Lion is to restore OS X using OS X Recovery
    Instead of restoring OS X in order to reinstall Safari, try troubleshooting extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
    If it's not an extension or plug-in issue, delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

  • "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.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

    When I open a link for another website Firefox opens a new tab but puts a line on the top of the new page saying that Firefox has blocked the website from transferring me to another page.
    I have to press ALLOW before Firefox will open the new page.
    How can I solve this problem.
    Many thanks in advance.

  • New tabs are not updating the names of the sites they have loaded. When I open a new tab and load a site, the tab simply stays named "New Tab". When I open a link in a new window, it shows "Connecting..." even while its fully loaded.

  • When i open iTunes i get this message "iTunes: iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found" "The procedure entry point RefAudioFileWritePackets could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreAudioToolbox.dll." how do i fix this!

    Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
    Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair".
    Does iTunes launch properly now?
    If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post:

  • When I open a link a new window opens with the toolbar and sidebar missing, on my previous machine the link simply opened in a new tab (not window).

    When I open a link in Firefox instead of opening a new tab it opens in a new window with all of the toolbars missing including the sidebar, right clicking anywhere gives me no options to restore the toolbars. My old machine simply opened the same link that I am trying in a new tab with all my toolbars available.

    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 (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

    Sometimes when I open Calendar, it is blank even when I have entered appointments.  When this happens, I tap calendars and tap hide all calendars and then tap show all calendars and mt appointments appear.  How do I get the Calendar app to show my appointments without going through this extra step?  Thanks

    Close All Open Apps...  Perform a Reset... Try again...
