Am I able to customize the NEW TAB window with my own selection of tiles?

Whit this latest update most of my Tiles went away and one of the ones I have shows up on a back page and not on the landing page. I'd like to know how to customize my Tiles (add ones I need)
Thank you

Hi, in essence, you can just drag a bookmark to the New Tab page - you can also use drag and drop to rearrange them if you wish. There is more in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites#firefox:mac:fx35 this article.]
Hope that helps.

When i first update firefox i was able to use the new tab feature. but now when i open a new tab i get this babylon thing and can't get it to go away. i want the new tab feature with the window links to different webpages back. how do i make this happen?

You can try to reset some preferences to the default with the SearchReset extension:
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the about:addons page.
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

Previously, my new tab window would display all my favourite sites. My wife downloaded a program and now the new tab window is the Ask website.

I removed Mozilla and reloaded from your website but the Ask website still opens in the new tab window
I would like to have my favourite websites in the new tab window as they were previously.
Regards
Peter

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar and search for prefs that refer to ask.com.
You can reset user set (bold) prefs via the right-click context menu to the default value.
If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

All of a sudden...the tabs won't open a new tab...when firefox is open I can SEE the new tab block with a plus in it but when I click, it doesn't open

I learned to LOVE firefox because of the multiple tab feature. I have the color tab add on and LOVE it!! But all of a sudden, the tabs won't open!!! FI: I have one tab open to HuffPo and then I click the square next to it with the + in the middle. This used to open a new tab but now when I click it doesn't open....I have tried upgrading to the beta...no use....uninstalled the beta and reinstalled 3.6...nothing....It is making me CRAZY!!!!
Please help.

How to turn of the "new tab/window" click sound in Firefox 4?

I have just installed Firefox 4.0.1 on Gentoo Linux.
Any time I open a new tab or window, there is a "click" sound. It sounds deliberate, like a notification.
The sound persists even when turning all addons off.
How can I disable that sound?

I tested this on my coworkers iPhone 5 running iOS8, and it does not occur for him. So it must be a bug. I am posted a bug report. Here is video of the issue happening: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6t7gwmvj0gc3wvh/IMG_3519.MOV?dl=0

How do i make the new tab open with my home page?

when opening a new tab the page is blank and I would like to have it open with my home page.
also very frequently firefox does not shut down when logging off. this results in the computer sitting idle using up the battery... using Vista as the OS

You can look at one of these extensions:
* NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2221
* New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/777
Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks that you should update.
*Java Plug-in 1.6.0_03 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)
Update the [[Java]] plugin to the latest version.

Firefox doesn't seem to give me the ability to enter a new URL in the new tab window I open

When I open a new Firefox tab there doesn't appear to be a way to enter a URL for the website I want to go to. I guess my question is: Where do you enter the URL for the website you want to access?
Thanks,
Suzanne

-> click '''Firefox''' button -> go to '''Options''' -> select '''Navigation Toolbar'''
Check and tell if its working.

3 of the 9 thumbnails in the new tab window won't appear after Firefox update.

I've waited until the page stops loading and it still won't appear. It works if I change the site. The 3 sites in question are Facebook, Pinterest, and Sidereel. I haven't changed any settings on those sites. I'm stumped.

This is a known bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=756881

The "new tab" tiles can no longer be updated.

For about a month now the version of firefox on my work pc, the "new tab" tiles can no longer be updated. I can move existing tabs. I cannot add new tabs. Dragging a bookmark over an empty tile opens the link in the "new tab". If I accidentally delete a tile, it is gone forever. Firefox does not prompt me to restore it. I am running the current ver. of Firefox. I even uninstalled/re-installed to see if that had an effect, it did not. Windows7, Firefox 27.0.1

Did you manually start Firefox in private browsing mode, or is the "Always use private browsing mode" option enabled?
* [[Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track]]
If you want to restore tiles you've previously deleted,
# Type ''about:config'' in the address bar and press Enter.
# Press the big button to bypass the warning.
# In the search bar, paste ''browser.newtabpage.blocked''
# In the search results, right-click ''browser.newtabpage.blocked'' and choose '''Reset'''.

Disable New Tab Window Feature

I do not like nor want to use the New-Tab Window feature.
How can I *permanently* disable this feature?
A 'config' page change maybe?

Firefox 13+ versions have an about:newtab page that shows the thumbnails of recent visited websites.

Open link in new tab/window problem

I have the following problem: I have a menu with h:commandLinks and I use faces.config configurations for my navigation. When I choose to open a menu entry in a new window or a new page the old page is displayed and I have to click again on the menu entry in order to navigate to the new page.
Does anyone know what is causing this? How could I make it work so that the user gets the content of the desired page in the new tab/window?
Thanks

Hi,
sorry for the late response. I have h:messages on the page and I don't get any errors. I try to open the link so: right click on the link and then I choose "Open Link in New Tab" or "Open Link in New Window".
If I simply click on the link everything works fine and the new page is displayed but when I use the right click menu the same page is displayed and I have to click again to obtain the desired page.
thanks

Why are there only 2 tiles on my new tab window, there were 9?

There doesn't seem to be any options to add additional tiles to the new tab window and when I drag a bookmarked site to the window, it does not stay there, it just opens the site

Hello,
With the latest Firefox update, the number of tiles is now determined on screen size - if you zoom out or expand the window you can have more tiles appear.
If you want to set a fixed number of tiles, I believe you can do so with the following extension:
* https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-tools/
You can also see '''jscher2000''''s Chosen Solution here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1025414
It requires the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/stylish/ Stylish] add-on but will automatically shrink the tiles on the page:

Why was the "new tab" button option removed from the "customize toolbar" set?

Back in 3.x and older I was able to place a "open new window" button, and an "open new tab" button on the bookmarks toolbar. This worked well for me. Now with 4, the "open new tab" is unavailable, and you can only open a new tab using the default button right next to your already open tabs.
Any chance of that open new tab button coming back? I'd rather use that (what I am used to) than the new one.
They're called options, stop removing them.

You can find the New Tab button showing as a '+' on the Tab bar. 
You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab button from the Tab bar on another toolbar and it will become a regular toolbar button like the New Tab button that you have in Firefox 3 versions. 
If you want the New Tab button at the far right end of the Tab bar then place a flexible to the left of it. 
Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"

In the latest version of Firefox, I am not able to open a new tab neither by Ctrl+T nor from the File Tab nor by pressing the '+' sign next to the last tab

In the latest version of Firefox, I am not able to open a new tab neither by Ctrl+T nor from the File Tab nor by pressing the '+' sign next to the last tab. So the only solution is opening "New window" which is extremely messy. Kindly help me with this issue.

hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

I can't find the New Tab button to place on the Toolbar. It is not in the customize the toolbar box. Where did it go?
