Access model for smart tabs: Can the new tab have a different ACL?

Access model for smart tabs: Can the new tab have a different access control list then the sources it draws from?
Scenario: Some lecture content is in a private course viewable to course members only and some is put on a public page viewable to all. Can the content on the smart tab viewable to the public have different permissions?
Scenario: Public site starts with small number of courses, say 16, located in 4 sections on the main welcome tab. Administrators have edit only rights to the Welcome page and grant editing rights to each of the course pages to others. A few months later the site has more content and decides to change the four sections on the Welcome page to four section pages with courses attached to it. The new pages would have new editors for them. Can the course pages originally located on the main welcome page be restricted to no viewers and smart tabs put in new courses connected to the new section tabs? The thought here is to avoid rebuilding the site as the architecture changes.
All comments appreciated!

The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.
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

Everytime I open a new window to browse, in this new window I would right click to open link in new tab but the new tab always shows up in the other window.

I would click a link which opens a new window. Then in this new window, I would right click to open link in new tab. The new tab does not show up in this new window. It instead shows up in the original browser window. How can I make the new tab show up in the same window?

Firefox did have a behavior where some new windows -- those considered to be dialogs -- could not have new tabs, so new tabs were diverted to the window from which the dialog was opened.
According to the bug tracking system, a fix is in the works:
[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644729 644729 – Popup window with all toolbars visible causes new tabs to open in another browser window] referencing [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485237 485237 – Need to treat popups consistently].
That second ones says Target Milestone: Firefox 12, so the fix probably didn't make it into Firefox 11.
WORKAROUNDS
That first bug says there is an add-on to work around this -- it enables the middle mouse button to open links in a dialog window: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug-586234-unfixer/ Bug 586234 Unfixer :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.

How can I make open link in new tab cause tabs to the new tab's left to shift left rather than tabs to the new tabs right to shift right?

When I follow a link in a new tab, the tab opens to the right of the current tab as expected. To make room for the tab on the tab bar, any tabs to the right of the current tab shift right. If there is room for all the tabs on the bar, this behavior is perfect. If however, there isn't sufficient room, some tabs must be hidden to the right or the left of the visible bar. Currently the rightmost visible tab is hidden. This behavior is suboptimal for me because I very often want to switch to tabs on the far right while I very seldom want to switch to tabs on the far left. Is there is a way to cause tabs to the left of the new tab to shift left thereby hiding the leftmost visible tab? Thanks

I'm not aware of a way to make Firefox hide the first tab instead of the last tab; maybe there is an add-on with that feature.
There is a hidden setting to open the new tab at the end of the bar instead of next to the page you're reading. Then, of course, you won't have this problem. Instead, you'll have the problem that it's hard to figure out which tab had that link in it. In case you want to try it out, here's how.
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''tabs''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent''' preference to switch it from true to false (it should turn bold)
You're done here. You can keep it open in case you hate the change and watch to switch it right back. In that case, double-click again to switch it back to true.

How can I make "Open Link in New Tab" open the new tab in the same window, not a different window?

When I Ctrl-click a link and choose "Open Link in New Tab" it chooses to open the new tab in a different window (one that's already open) rather than opening the new tab in the same window. Even though the other window is minimized, it automatically gets restored and placed on top of the window I was in. This interferes with my context, forcing me to minimize the window again to get back to the one I was in before. I want the new tab to open in the same window, so I can still see the tab I was in. Some links seem to have the "Open Link in New Tab" behavior automatically, so I never know when I'm going to get thrown out of my current window. Very annoying.

If you have a mouse with a scroll button then try to middle click the link to open the link in a new tab.
It is also possible that the links use onclick JavaScript instead of a href to specify the action.

Firefox 6.0 apears to have crashed, all my tabs and the new tab groups too are lost, Why?

When opening Firefox this time-today, shortly after (a few days ago) updating to the Firefox 6.0 update and setting up the new Tab Groups, now none of my Tabs or Tab groups are showing/available (I checked the Tab Groups area also).
What the heck happened and how can I get them all back?

I'm sorry, but this did not help solve my issue with Firefox 6.0, as I already had my Firefox configured for restore (utilizing all of the methods suggested, because of many issues over the years and revs.); the History will not allow a restore of all tabs from the time before the loss; the "This is Embarrassing" screen did not come up this time, but it has numerous times prior to the rev 6.0 update. This time everything was just lost completely.

Am unable to click and open new tabs using the new tab button after downloading the newest version of firefox?

have recently downloaded the newest version of firefox. after installing i am happy to say i am pleased with the new look and features etc though for some reason i am unable to open new tabs as before.
i now have to right click on bookmarks or favorites and select open in a new tab to do so, rather than simply clicking on the new tab button..

If the problem turns out to be the "New Tabs at the End" extension, there actually is an internal setting for this that you could use instead.
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''tabs''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent''' preference to switch it from true to false. That's it.

I can't open a new tab. The new tab appears, but when I click on it, it won't do anything

When I try to open a new tab to the right of my very first tab when I open Firefox, it won't open a new tab. The only way I can get a new tab is to right click on a link somewhere on my homepage and tell it to open a new tab for that link.

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.

Why can I not open a new tab using the New Tab button, going to File and clicking on New Tab or by pressing ctrl + T?

I am able to right click on a link and choose "Open in a New Tab."

This issue can be caused by the Ask<i></i>.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)

What is wrong when you try to open a new tab, but the new tab does not appear?

I have been trying to open up multiple websites by using the "open a new tab" button. When I do this, no new tab appears. Please help.

Please uninstall or disable the Ask Toolbar extension to solve your problem.

Can the iphone 4s have two different contact lists?

Can two different contact lists be created on the iPhone 4S?
Rgginc

Yes, if you don't mind having separate e-mail accounts. For example, you can have a set of contacts associated with iCloud and another set with Yahoo. I suppose you could also have a set of contacts synced with your computer (e.g. Outlook) and another set associated with an e-mail account.
In any case, once you have multiple sets of contacts defined then you can choose to show all contacts, or just those associated with a particular account.
Just be aware that there is always a default account for new contacts (defined in Settings). When you create a new contact they will always be associated with the default account. If you want to enter a new contact but associate it with a different account than what your default account is, then you need to first change the default.
(Unlike having multiple calendars where you can change the account that an event is associated with at the time you create the event, there doesn't seem to be a similar ability to define the account for a new contact while you're creating it, only the global default contact account in Settings).

When taking a test for a job application the new tab opens up and tells me a system error has occurred

I have to take a talent assessment test for a job application but when the tab comes up it tells me I have a system error has occurred. What does that mean?

Hi Bob,
I have question that I hope you can answer. I am trying to decide how to set up my wireless network with a 4th generation Airport Time Capsule (802.11n) with a 5th generation Airport Extreme (802.11n). I have read that you can extend your wireless network, but I am unsure which device I should have connected to the modem, etc., or what setup is the best way to utilize these devices. I want to setup my wireless network and get the most out of each device while making it so that internet connection is "excellent" throughout the house. In addition, I also want to be able to use Time Capsule or Airport Etreme to back up with Time Machine. Basically, I don't understand what it is that I have and how to use it in the best way.
Any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Michael

When I attempt to open a new tab by clicking the "new tab" button on the tabs bar, the tab will not open. Can this be fixed and how?

When I open my Firefox browser, the normal 1 tab comes up. But when I attempt to open new tabs with the "new tabs" button, a new tab will not open. I have also tried right-clicking on the tabs toolbar but tabs will not open. The only way I can get a new tab to open is by right-clicking on a link and selecting the "open new tab" option in the right-click menu.

The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13 version. Disable that extension or un-install it.

Sir, i set the speed dial in home page,but when i open the new tab its show only the blank page,can you say the ways to show the speed dials whenever i open tab

plz say the way to set the speed dials which i set in home page whenever i open the new tab instead of blank page

Make sure the new tab feature is enabled:
* On the address bar, go to '''about:config''' (Just be careful)
* Set '''browser.newtabpage.enabled''' to '''true'''
To set the homepage to show the new tab page:
* Go to Firefox Menu > Preferences > General
* Set '''When Firefox starts''' to '''Show my Home page'''
* Set '''Home Page''' to '''about:newtab'''
So that a new tab opens the new tab page
* On the address bar, go to '''about:config''' (Just be careful)
* Set '''browser.newtab.url''' to '''about:newtab'''

I cannot open a new tab any way..by clicking the new tab button on tab-bar, or ctrl/T, or File/New Tab, or clicking on link on current page.

On Windows7 Premium Home Edition, I cannot get a new tab to open no matter what I try. On occasion, if I click on a link on the current page, a second tab will open, but 99% of the time I am stuck using the first tab for everything and using the back button. I have tried ctrl/T, File/New Tab, right mouse click/New Tab, and the new tab button on the tab bar to the right of the current tab.

Uninstall the '''''Ask Toolbar'''''. It can cause that problem.
