After downloading FF 20.0.1, I can no longer open multiple FF windows; tabs still work.

I upgraded directly from version 18.0, and now I can't open more than one Firefox window. Like I said, all my tab functions are still working, but I'd like to be able to open multiple windows at times. I had the same problem with version 19.0, which is why I rolled back to 18.0. Any ideas?

Thank you, ideato! I found the culprit among one of my add-ons.

    After down loading os 10.7, I can no longer open microsoft word

    No, your old Word files should still be where you left them and can be opened by either a current version of Office:mac or even Apple Pages (more or less).  The problem that you are having (we think) is that you are trying to run an older version of Microsoft Office:mac (e.g. Office:mac 2004 or older) and this software was compiled for a PowerPC processor.  The last few versions of the Mac OS has allowed PowerPC programs to run on an Mac with an Intel processor through a translation system called Rosetta that converted PowerPC code to Intel code.  However, Apple stopped providing that software in 10.7 so any PowerPC applications will no longer run.
    Office:mac 2008 and Office:mac 2011 will run on an Intel-based Mac and therefore will run on 10.7.

  • After the latest update of Itunes I can no longer use it. Windows Error 127 and restore Itunes is the message I get. Do I have to download it again fro m the Apps store?

    Do I have to download Itunes again from the App Store after updating my original I can no longer use it.
    Keep getting the error message Windows error 127, restore ITunes. This has not affected my IPad at all.
    Hope someone can help.
    thanks Jean

    Hello Jean,
    Based of what you have provided then I would say yes download iTunes from Apple’s website and also make sure that your version of Windows is up to date as well. Take a look at the article below to walk you through that plus some other steps necessary to get you back to using iTunes.

  • How do you stop Safari from removing last download when it's of the same file type? (e.g., when I download a new pps file I can no longer open a pps file that I've just downloaded)

    When I download a .pps file, I can open it from the downloads and everything is great. But if I try to download another one, then I can no longer access the previous download from the download bar. This is very annoying to me as I download and open dozens of these files every day. Is there some way that I can display all the files in the download bar and not just the last file downloaded of a certain type (a way to get Safari to stop hiding the .pps files)

    To prevent Firefox from displaying form autocomplete suggestions, you can turn off that feature using the about:config page.
    In the address bar, type or paste '''about:config''' and tap the Enter/Return key.
    I suggest bookmarking this for easier future access.
    In the search box, type or paste '''formf''' and tap the Enter/Return key.
    Scroll down to '''browser.formfill.enable''' and tap the Toggle button to switch it from true to false.
    That's it. Does it work on Facebook?
    ''The about:config preferences editor in the mobile version is similar in principle to the desktop version but many of the preferences available on the desktop version have no effect in mobile. This one I only tested on one site, but it seems to work.''

  • I can no longer open multiple tabs in a window but if a program opens another tab it will work but clicking on "new tab" does not work.

    That is the details. When I click on "new tab" it will not open a new tab in the current window. When I click on something that will open a new tab it works that way. I can open new windows, that is not problem This only happened the last week or so.

    This issue can be caused by the Ask<i></i>.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)
    Your system details show that toolbar in the user agent as AskTbEPC/3.13.1.18107

  • Since downloading the latest Firefox upgrade, I can no longer open links from webpages or from email. How do I fix this?

    Since downloading Firefox 5.0, I cannot open links.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

  • I can no longer open a blank new tab by clicking on the +on the far right of my tabs. And I cannot open a new tab using CTRL T either. This has been happening since your last firefox update!

    Prior to one of recent upgrades in late September, I was able to open a new tab but using the + on the right unused tab. This does absolutely nothing now. I have even tried the CTRL T function and it does not work either.

  • I can no longer open multiple pages by clicking on my safari in my dock.  What do I do?

    Just recently I have not been able to open more than one page using my safari buttom on my dock.  It used to have a "open new window' selection when I double clicked on the safari app.  Now it is gone.  Can someone help me fix this?

  • I can no longer open a new browser tab by either clicking the + at the end of the last browser or by using the Ctrl key + T, how do I fix this?

    I have uninstalled firefox and reinstalled firefox to try and solve this
    issue, but it has not fixed the issue. To open a new tab I must right click
    any current page link to get a new browser tab and then navigate to a new web address. This is a recent issue that just started happening and I can't figure out what happened or what got disabled. Please help me fix this.

    Try uninstalling 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.

  • I can no longer open a 2nd window in firefox. How do I get this feature back?

    When I right click a link & ask to open it in a 2nd window, it doesn't work. I can open a new tab. But I can't drag the tab & create a 2nd window that way either. I also click on the firefox icon & ask for a 2nd window but that doesn't work.

    Hello coolou7, '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    thank you

  • Using Firefox 5 in Windows 7, once I have Firefox open, I can no longer open a new window using the start button. How do I fix?

    As I stated, I have Windows 7 on my laptop and have installed Firefox 5. I sometimes like to have multiple windows of the browser open. But, unlike any previous version of Firefox, now when I have the browser open, when I try to open a new window using the Start menu, it will not open one. I have to use Ctrl+N. Why did this change?
    This may seem insignificant but it really hampers my work flow. For one, with other applications, Shift+N is what opens a new window. For two, I've been doing with with my browsers for years now and it's like second nature for me - having to remember that in Firefox it's Ctrl+N is a pain in my tuccus.
    Firefox is my go to browser and I would like it to stay that way. Please find the solution for me! I have tried looking using Tools, Options, as well as looking at my start menu and taskbar options, and no dice.

    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.

  • Why can I not open multiple playlists/windows in itunes? Ugh!

    I have used an ipod in the past and was always editing playlists. I would open multiple windows and drag and drop between them. Now, with my iphone i would like to be able to do the same thing but apparently apple thinks this feature is useless i guess? itunes 11 has removed it? I tried "upgrading" to itunes 10 to reclaim this great and underated feature and to no avail.
    It told me that my library or user something or other was created with a newer version of itunes, so now im back with the "downgrade" of itunes 11. I mean, do i need to use media monkey exclusively? And then deal with my iphone thinking its being pirated everytime i want to hook it up to my computer? This is crazy! It's no wonder people jailbreak iphones. But i shouldn't have to, and apple needs to put that simple multitasking with multiple windows/playlists feature back into itunes.

    Hi bmail, I am attaching an illustration of cor-el's suggestion showing what it does since I wasn't aware of that before.

  • I recently updated and I can no longer open multiple browsers by clicking my desktop icon, only by going to file - new window in the single instance that I am able to open (I also checked and I do not have multiple instances opened in processes)

    Windows 7 64 bit

    Reset the SMC and PRAM, I'd recommend doing each reset 2X. Post back if the issue continues.
    SMC RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
    PRAM RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

I clicked to install a new version after updating and clicking repair. But still the attachments won't open including invoices I have received today. It is all attachments not just pdfs.

    Then most likely it is not caused by Adobe Reader.
