3.6.4 now opens new tabs to the far right, rather than next to the current tab. why the change, and can I change it back?

When I right-click a link to open the context menu, and then select the menu item "open in new tab", the new tab is to the far right of my opened tabs in this window. In 3.6.3, the new tab would be next to my current tab. This seems like an arbitrary change. Is there a setting whereby I can get the old behavior?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I updated to 3.6.4

Set the pref browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent to false on the about:config page.
To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

Do you mean that toolbars get hidden when you open a new tab?

Help, please.

Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

In Lion, there is no Systim Profiler. It is System Information now located in the Utilities Folder. Open that up and select to keep it in the Dock.

When i open an mp3 file from a source other than apple, does itunes create it's own file and can I then delete the original mp3?

when I open a music file from a source other than apple, does itunes create it's own file and can I then delete the original mp3?

If you use iTunes' default settings then when you add a file to iTunes it places a copy of the file in the iTunes media folder and it leaves the original in place. The exception is when you drag it to the Automatically Add To iTunes folder.
It does not convert the file. You can delete the original if you wish.

Firefox now opens new tabs in new Firefox sessions. This is new behaviour and is a nuisance. How do I stop it?

This may be a Windows problem or it may be a Firefox issue.
I think it started when I installed updated Firefox to version 35.
Firefox 35 is running in Windows 8.1 on a desktop.
When I click a link in my Firefox browser, I've set FF to open new windows in a new tab instead.
It doesn't.
It opens a new window altogether that sits at the far end of my Windows task bar. If I have several tabs running, the taskbar displays the main program icon, which is pinned to the taskbar, and way over to the right it displays an icon that shows another session of Firefox. If there are three new sessions running, that icon on the right shows layers.
To close Firefox, I have to select each session and close it individually.
In the past, the Windows taskbar icon showed just one Firefox icon, although it would show layers if there was more than one tab open. Now it's showing the two as described above.
This is a nuisance. Is it caused by Firefox 35, and if so, how do I stop it?

Thanks, Fred. The settings checked under "Tabs" are Open new windows in a new tab instead, and When I open...switch to it immediately.
Maybe I'm describing the problem incorrectly. Firefox is 'pinned' to my taskbar. When clicked, a second FF icon appears to the right and it is not pinned. It appears to be an entirely new session. New tabs open in it.
My home page is a web page with links with the target=_blank attribute. When I click one a new session starts with two tabs in it, my home page and the page for the url I linked to. The attached image shows four FF sessions running, three of them with two tabs, resulting from clicking 3 links on my home page. Instead of one "unlit" icon and one "lit" icon with seven tabs shared between four sessions, there should be one icon, lit, with one session with four tabs.
I think this started happening when FF upgraded to version 35, but it may have been when Windows 8.1 upgraded itself, if that happened recently. I've only noticed this behaviour for a few days; until then FF stayed in one session with multiple tabs, and only the pinned program icon showing in the task bar.
This ONLY occurs with Firefox. My other browsers, IE 11, Opera 26 and Safari, just use the one pinned icon.

When opening new tabs they are blank;how can i make them open to my homepage?

When you open a new tab it is blank. Is there any way to make a new tab open to my homepage?

Ctrl+Home button will open a new tab with your home page. If you have multiple home pages, I believe it will open only the first one shown in Tools > Options > General > Home Page.

Opens new tab instead of changing page within a frame.

V 22: When I open site with frame header & left navigation home page is fine. When I click to navigate to different page, frame header & navigation buttons are gone. Only content of new page is displayed. Site is control page for access point on network. IE and Chrome work just fine.
This is new behavior. Started after update to Release 22.0

Hi,
I have the same problem. After checking settings and add-ons, I discovered that the add-on for Dragon Naturally Speaking seemed to be causing the problem. Probably a feature of DNS. When I disabled the DNS add-on, Firefox behaved correctly.

After a recent upgrade the system no longer asks me if i want to quit and save open tabs. why is that and can I do something to get this feature back?

I recently had a firefox update (withing past 3 days). Now when I go to close down my browser it only asks me if I am sure I want to close all tabs.
Previously it had asked me if I wanted to quit and save my open tabs or just quit.

You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session. 
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page. 
Another possibility is to use: 
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
You can set the warn prefs on the about:config page to true via the right-click context menu or toggle with a double left-click.
* browser.showQuitWarning, see http://blog.zpao.com/post/3174360617/about-that-quit-dialog
* browser.tabs.warnOnClose, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/About%3Aconfig_entries
* browser.warnOnQuit , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnQuit
* browser.warnOnRestart , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnRestart
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

Help!- ipad was disconnected when updating software...now it won't recognize the ipad and can't complete a restore.It can't recognize the serial # or name,etc..

i was updating my ipad to the new ios software. the cable got disconnected just as it was completing the update. when it connected again it said i need to restore it. Once going thru the restore process, it said that Itunes can't recognize the ipad. one note, the ipad shows on my itunes as a "IPAD" and no name, serial #, etc... The ipad has a symbol on it telling me to connect to itunes

A System Reset cures many ills. It's easy, quick and harmless:
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide. Pay special attention to page 162. Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1 with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the hardware.

Finally, the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark.

I accidentally uninstalled the audio program that came with the computer many years ago. Now I have no sound at all on the computer and can't get it back without a CD apparently - but I have none.

Can I reinstall an audio program that I accidentally removed? Does Firefox have an audio program I can use instead?

VLC is a great, Free, player -> http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
But changes are if you have no sound, you did more than uninstall a player, you uninstalled the driver....

Home Button opens new tab instead of opening page in current tab.

How do I get the home button in Firefox 4 to open the home page in the existing tab instead of a new tab?

I recently noticed that I started having this problem. I use an add-on called "Tab Utilities" which is updated to version 1.1.2 There are settings in the options which open new tabs in various ways, and a setting to open a new tab upon pressing home was selected. Deselecting that option fixed this problem for me.

Firefox did an automatic update to 6.01, and now my middle mouse button is not working in the browser. It doesn't close tabs, it doesn't open new tabs by middle clicking a link, it doesn't allow me to middle click to scroll the page...

[BUG FIXED, see "EDIT 2" at the end of my post]
I'm on Firefox 3.6.21, and I got this problem today after a Greasemonkey update (To version 0.9.10, apparently).
Disabling Greasemonkey solved the problem, and re-enabling it reproduced the problem (middle-clicking links to open in new tab did not work, merely highlighted the link).
I should also note that while Greasemonkey was enabled and the bug was affecting me, Ctrl+Click to open links in new tabs was also broken.
I hope this helps!
EDIT: It appears this is a known incompatibility/conflict bug between current versions of Greasemonkey and Tab Mix Plus. Read more here:
https://github.com/greasemonkey/greasemonkey/issues/1406
EDIT 2: GREASEMONKEY HAS NOW BEEN UPDATED with a workaround to fix the problem. Go to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/versions/ to install the update manually. It hasn't been reviewed by Mozilla yet, so it won't be an automatic update for another day or two. All credit to "cannonfodder" below for noticing this; please mark his post as helpful!
