A Tab History (Recent pages in "A Tab")
Hi
In older versions of mozilla firefox we had a little symbol near "back" button that showed a list of sites that you visited them apart (separate) from other Tabs history.
but in version 4 this function is not there.
you can see what I say using these pictures:
In older versions

In version 4:

Despite I always use Firefox but I want to say that some of functions of Firefox on version 4 is destroyed!!!
with best regards

This is a bad step, I have had to google this to find this feature again. If there is a mark or arrow or something on the screen then the user can press and learn, hiding features and especially useful ones such as this tab history is not a good idea.

I downloaded and installed the update to Firefox 3.6.16. When the new version opened, my browsing history from previous use had disappeared, only one tab was present. The [History/Recently Closed Windows] was grayed, so not accessible. Is there any way to restore my previous browsing history from a file?
Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
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 -
I have a Tab Control with approx. 15 tabs. After the user changes anything (adding text, changing a ring control, etc. ) from the default configuration on any of the 15 tabs, I would like a change to that individual tab only (say color change, text change, anything) so when the user sees all 15 tabs, they know what tab page has had changes to the defaults.
I appreciate your help with this one!
(Note: I tried using a imported bitmap control of a red checkmark - and use true/false to an
visible property node -this only works when placed in any of the Tab control pages, but not on the individual Tab itself.)
-Karl H.Karl,
I have attached a LabVIEW 6i example to this post that indicates with an LED if the control on the Tab has been changed from its default value. I used the classic LED's to make them invisible when the value is still the default. Hope this helps.

IE 11 open new tab opens new window, clicking open new tab opens black page in same tab
Hi I have a problem with IE11 on Windows 8.1 Desktop mode which is driving me crazy.
When i click on the open new tab button it will open in the same tab in the same window and you cant go to any website and the website on where on's address is still in the address bar.
Right click a link and select open new tab most of the time opens new window with long pause.
I have tried everything to fix this even re installing windows, but the problem persists after re install as i think its attaching itself to my Microsoft account.
I have disabled all add-ons run virus and walware scans reset IE to defaults removed and re-installed IE all to no avail!
Any help would be much appreciated.tried everything

FF3 used to have a drop down list of the most recent pages that a tab had displayed under the back arrow button. FF4 does not appear to have this. How can I see history of what's been displayed in the tab say four or five pages back?
You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker -
In IE 8 there is a "recent pages" tab next the forward / back buttons. It helps us jump back & forth the sites directly. Is there a similar feature in FF 6 ?
The arrow to open the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons has been removed in Firefox 4 and later.
Use one of these methods to open the tab history list:
* Right click on the Back or Forward button
* Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens
You can look at this extension:
* Backward Forward History Dropdown: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforedrop/ -
A missing "recent pages" button missing from Internet Explorer is one reason I don't use IE.
Recent pages used to be the down arrow to the right of the "Go forward one page" right arrow. Please restore ASAPUse this to open the tab history list:

I am using Nightly-Elm 21.0a1 Recently Ctrl + Shift + T stopped working. History --> Recently Closed Tabs still works. Other hotkeys also still work.
I already tried Safe Mode, didn't work. In a new profile it does work.
This guy (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/853883) seemed to have the same problem. The solution offered was to transfer some files from a fresh profile. I am not sure what files to transfer. I tried the prefs.js, but that didn't help.The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

History of first page in new tab is not recorded
1) I open a new tab and a page displays (homepage, whatever), 2) I go to a new page under the same tab, 3) I go to another new page under the same tab. The Problem Is: The page in step 1) never gets recorded in the page history. I can never use the "back" arrow to get to that first page. It never shows up in the page history of that tab. I know it used to record that first page but it doesn't anymore. What's up?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

If, by accident, I click on the bottom part of Firefox (above Windows´ taskbar) the browser sort of minimizes and I can´t reopen it, I have to cancel everything I´m doing. As I usually work with many tabs, a pop-up asks me if I want Firefox to save my tabs for next start, and I click on "Yes", but then, when I open it, I can´t restore them at all, even if I go to History-> Recently Closed tabs...
How can I solve this???
Please, I´d really appreciate it if you could help me, because this is so annoying, and makes me waste a lot of time!Hi Morbus,
Thanks for your quick response. I set Tools>Options>General>Show my windows and tabs from last time as you told me, but it didn´t work. I also disabled add ons and ran the Safe Mode, though I still got no solution, so this is my Troubleshooting Info:

Where is the 'History Recently Closed Tabs' menu in Firefox 29
There used to be a 'Recently Closed Tabs' in the old orange Firefox 28 menu. Now it seems version 29 only has a 'Restore Closed Tabs' menu item in its 'History menu'. There seems to be no option to restore individually closed tabs. I'm always closing a tab by accident, and the old method was very fast and easy.
Another person asked about this, but it seems his only solution was the 'Undo Closed Tabs Button' Add-On:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/997285?esab=a&as=aaq
In the old menu, you had access to your recent history, 'Clear Recent History', 'Restore Previous Session', 'Recently Closed Tabs', and 'Recently Closed Windows' in one easy to access spot. Now all that is buried, or doesn't seem to exist anymore.
Is there any way to re-configure the new menu to include at least the 'Recently Closed Tab's menu again?You can click History in the 3-bar Firefox menu button on the Navigation Toolbar to see the sections for recently closed tabs and recently closed windows.
You can also unhide the menu bar and open the History menu.
*Press the F10 key or tap the Alt key to bring up the hidden Menu bar. -

When rebooting mac, I closed all firefox windows by clicking the cancel "x" and then clicked "close tabs". After rebooting I could not recover my open tabs, as none of the options were highlighted under History , i.e. Recently Closed Tabs or Recently Closed Windows.

when I click "new tab" the new page would be the search abr along with the :most used list. But now the "new tab" opens in a "I-Play", yahoo-bing search page. How do I get rid of the yahoo page and get back to the most viewed page????
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.
