3.6.13 will not open a tab with vista business on hp 6715b laptop

using firefox 3.6.13 on vista business, I find I cannot open a new tab, this has only happened in the last 3 days

Try uninstalling the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and the current version of Firefox.

  • FF7 will not open new tab with new window. overwrites same tab. If I manually open a new tab, then the new window appears there. In previous versions, the new window would automatically open a new tab. This tab 'overwriting' ia very annoying.

    You won't let me! The 'red' prompt says I have use more than 255 characters.

    By accident, after nearly an hour of playing with FF7, I discovered that by pushing down (like a button) on the scroll wheel or holding down CTRL key will open a new tab to the right of existing tabs when selecting a bookmarked site or link within a webpage.

  • Firefox will not open new 'tabs', not sure if its disabled, but does anyone know how to enable the use of my tabs?

    Firefox will not open any tabs on my browser. I've tried using all alternatives to open a new tab - using the 'plus' (+) button doesn't work, 'control + T' doesn't work, going to File and clicking 'new tab' doesn't work either? Help please!

    Your suggestion worked! Thanks!

  • Since updating last time Firefox will not open new tabs unless I right click on a link. It won't open them via file or the tab at the top of the brwoser. Anyone know how to fix this?

    Since updating last time Firefox will not open new tabs unless I right click on a link. It won't open them via file or the tab at the top of the brwoser or usinf ctrl + t. Anyone know how to fix this?

    I can press ctrl for a new tab but otherwise a new tab does not open. I actually need help regarding this new Synch which apparently will be in Firefox automatically in an upcoming version so I am asking how that will synch with people who use LastPass-of course because I use this very successfully and really am not eager to change the set up that I have in place at this time.
    I have read through endless FAQ trying to find anyone else who has this question or concern but have found nothing. Can you please tell me how that service will get along with LastPass which does basically the same thing as Synch-it is probably spelled wrong as it looks wrong to me but if I click back to where this issue began, I will lose all of this question so please respond for the upcoming service synch.

  • Internet Explorer will not open additional tabs

    I bought a Yoga 2 Pro a couple of weeks ago an overall I really like it.  There is one thing that is a little strange.When I open up IE from the start/tablet page it will not open additional tabs if the website requests it.  It will either stay on the initial page or open a blank page.  For example; there is a website I use alot, when you click a link it opens it in another window.  When I do that it just opens a blank page.
    If I use IE from the Desktop it works fine.  Am I missing a setting somewhere?
    Thanks,
    Brian

    You can try the Firefox web browser to see if you can then connect. Firefox is a better, faster, more secure browser anyway and will prompt you to transfer all your Favorites from IE.
    Firefox Download
    or
    Try the free Fix IE utility.

    or
    You can try uninstalling IE8 then reinstalling it.
    Uninstall IE8
    I would take 'Y2ken's' advice and try Firefox.  I have used it for years with XP Pro and Ubuntu, Linux.  It definitely is more responsive.  Most of what is in IE8 was developed in FF several years ago.  FF was the first browser with tabs, for instance.

  • Updated to android 2.3 on my htc evo 4g and now firefox will not open any tabs?

    I've been using Firefox 4 since first few weeks of release and all was great with Android 2.2 on my htc evo 4g. Now updated to 2.3 this past weekend and Firefox will not open any tabs. Have resorted to using stock Dolphin... :(
    I miss Firefox. What is the fix?

    If you use ZoneAlarm Extreme Security then try to disable Virtualization.

  • CS2 will not open. Greeted with "Your Adobe Photoshop user name...

    CS2 will not open. Greeted with message "Your Adobe Photoshop user name, organization, or serial number is missing or invalid. The application cannot continue and must now exit." I click OK and PS closes. I've been using this regestered copy on this PC (running Vista 32) for years (daily or at least weekly) without problem until today. Any ideas on how I can get it working again? I have disc somewhere? Thank you.

    Unfortunately your cs2 disc is no good except for the things such as the goodies or extras that came on the cd, because adobe disabled the activation servers for cs2 products.
    You can try this:
    (in other words something removed the info from the windows registry)

    More than likely though, you'll have reinstall photoshop cs2 using the new non activating installer.
    Use just the photoshop cs2 download and serial on that page.

  • Itunes document manager pro will not open a document with .cwk extension. It will catch the document then error message states that it cannot open document. Can anyone tell me what Im doing wrong?

    Itunes document manager pro will not open a document with .cwk extension. It will catch the document then error message states that it cannot open document. Can anyone tell me what Im doing wrong?

    Forgive my ignorance but I have never hear of iTunes Document Manager Pro. If you mean Document Manager Pro, i was able to find that. Back to your problem, have you tried opening one of those files in the iOS iWorks apps? Form the quick read that I did about this, .cwk files can be opened by Pages, Numbers or Keynote, depending on what type of document that it is and those files can be read by Document Manager Pro, after properly saving them. I don't see that you can go directly from the .cwk file in Document Manager Pro without converting them first.
    I took a very quick look at the app, so I may be a missing something about its capability.

  • PDFs will not open in Browser with Adobe Reader 9

    I am using Vista Ultimate x64 (SP1) using IE7. I am using the 32-bit version of the browser. I have selected "Display PDF in browser" on the Internet settings tab of the Adobe Reader 9.
    Every time I select a PDF document, it forces me to save the document to the hard drive and open it from the hard drive. It will not open the PDF in the browser. How do I fix this problem??
    The above procedure did work in Windows XP (32-bit), but does not appear to work in Vista (64-bit).

    I have a similar problem using Adobe Reader 9 with Vista 64. I am also using the 32 bit version of IE7. Every time I click on a pdf to open in IE7 the screen remains white without starting Adobe Reader 9 in IE7 browser window.
    Using Adobe Reader independantly works without any problem. Only the IE7 plugin does not seem to work. I reinstalled Adobe Reader 9 but without any effect. Adobe Reader 8 works. How comes?

  • New version of iTunes will not open says problem with QuickTime

  • Keynote file will not open on Mac with older version.

    I write presentations at home (Mac OSX 10.9.4  with Keynote 5.3 (1170) -  iMac Desktop
    and I play them at my retail store (Mac OSX 10.4.11 with Keynote 5.03 (791) - MacMini
    I must have automatically let the computer at home upgrade Keynote and now the file I have spent hours on will not open at work. <banging head on desk>.
    The error I get is "unable to open because this is not a valid keynote document".
    My Mac Mini says everything is up to date so I don't believe I can update anymore.  I do believe i have an iWork disc somewhere and I guess I could try and go BACK on my iMac, but I am not even sure how to do that without goofing up my entire computer.
    Ideas?

      I do believe i have an iWork disc somewhere and I guess I could try and go BACK on my iMac
    Unless you have manually deleted Keynote 5, it is retained in the Applications folder in iWorks 09 folder.
    If it is no longer installed, use the install discs to re-install and follow the onscreen instructions.

  • Firefox 16.0.2 will not open You Tube with latest Adobe Shockflash 11.4 etc.

    Forefox 16.0.2 on MAC OSX 10.8.2 with most current Adobe Shockwave Flash will not open You Tube videos. Photo of video shows, it seems to load, but then nothing happens. I have gone through all the suggestions on your site and spent a great deal of time and still cannot reach a solution. This is very maddening, as much as I love Firefox.

    Did you try the solution given in this article?

    Hi
    I think that the PPC installer can be worked around (?):
    Make disk images of the Install Disks, mount them all, then use Pacifist to run the Install process
    Looks like it should work here..

  • Firefox will not open old tabs

    My computer crashed last evening and on restarting firefox, it goes to a new page without any of the old tabs available. Going under history has all of the options regarding restoring recently closed windows greyed out.
    I did confirm that under preferences it is set to open previous tabs on starting firefox.
    I have had the sessionstore.js file get corrupted previously. Looking in the profile folder showed the sessionstore.js to be a 1k file. So my first instinct was to just restore that file, and fortunately, there is a sessionstore.bak file with a time late last PM, so that file should still contain my last session.
    I made a copy of the sessionstore.bak file and renamed it to sessionstore.js, but firefox still opens with a fresh session. I had the windows explorer (i.e. file manager) window open and as firefox was starting, the sessionstore.js got clobbered back to a 1k file suggesting the firefox is clearing the last session on opening. I tried restoring sessionstore.js from sessionstore.bak another time and making sessionstore.js read only, but firefox still will not revert back to the previous browsing session; instead it creates a new file called sessionstore.js.tmp.
    I'm at a loss as to how to get my old browsing session back. I'm still using firefox V28.0. I haven't upgraded to V29 due to not wanting to lose the ability to export tabs as reported in the reviews of the android version of V29. Operating system is Win 7 SP1.

    If Firefox won't read the file when it's named sessionstore.js, it may have a structural problem. In that case, a little surgery might be needed, but it's hard to know what to suggest without more information.
    Could try one of the data mining techniques in these posts to rescue the URLs from the sessionstore.js or sessionstore.bak file:
