App tab new window

On Firefox 7 for Windows, if I'm in an app tab and click on a link, it opens it in a new tab...good. Under OS X, it opens in the same tab...bad.
Solution?

Did you try Firefox 7 on Mac?

Fiori app in new window

Dear all,
We have installed the PPM Fiori apps on our system; we have managed to get these four apps on the launchpad. However when we click one of the tiles the error "Failure - unable tot start app" occurs. If we do the same but now right click and open in New Tab or New Window the app is started without any problems.
Has anyone experienced the same behaviour?
Regards,
John.

I set the prefferance to show tabs and windows from last session but every time i power down my firefox or my Mac all my app tabs and windows disapear. what's wrong with my settings.

I set my preferences to '''show all tabs and windows from last session''' and un-checked the box for '''don't load tabs until selected''' but every time I turn off fire fox and power down my Mac all my app tabs disappear.

Make sure that you do not use Clear Recent History to clear the Browsing History when you close Firefox.

Safari tabs/new windows

Safari 3.2.3.
In the preferences it has an option that when you click on links, it can either open a new window or in a new tab in the current window (this only applies to links from Mail, ichat, etc.).
I'm wanting to know if there is a way to set it to where every link that I click on opens a new tab instead of opening a new window. It's a pet peeve to have so many windows open.
I hope I explained this clearly enough.

Hi Sally,
There's a couple of ways to do this. Have a read of this thread:

How to switch New TAB/New Window in click right menu link ? Firefox 4

Hi there,
I just installed Firefox4. I was near perfect although they switch Open in New Tab/Window position.
I fixed yet when clicking right on a link using userChrome.css following settings :
<pre><nowiki>
#context-openlink {
-moz-box-ordinal-group: 1 !important;
#contentAreaContextMenu > * {
-moz-box-ordinal-group: 2;
}</nowiki></pre>
Anyway i have still the same when right clicking on a bookmark/menu url - it show :
Open
Open in new Tab
Open in new Window
New bookmark...
New folder...
Anybody have an idea to set option in userChrome.ss 'cause atm i'm out.
Thanks in advance,
Golkran

Try this:
Open your userChrome.css
 
Then, insert this code:
#contentAreaContextMenu > #context-openlink { -moz-box-ordinal-group: 1 !important; }
#contentAreaContextMenu > * { -moz-box-ordinal-group: 2 !important; }
#placesContext_open { -moz-box-ordinal-group: 0 !important; }
#placesContext> menuitem[id="placesContext_open"] { -moz-box-ordinal-group: 0 !important; }
#placesContext> menuitem[id="placesContext_open:newwindow"] { -moz-box-ordinal-group: 2 !important; }
#placesContext> menuitem[id="placesContext_open:newtab"] { -moz-box-ordinal-group: 3 !important; }
#placesContext> * { -moz-box-ordinal-group: 3 !important; }
Then restart Firefox.
When I right click on a bookmark, I can see this order:
Open
 
Open in new window
 
Open in new tab
such as in Firefox 3.
I also installed the Menu Editor add-on to change the order of this menu, but it works only with link within a page, not for bookmarks.
With the previous code in userChrome.css file, it works also with right click on a bookmark.
I hope this solution will be useful for many users, because I found more difficult to solve the problem.
For Firefox Community: where can we find syntax such as the above?
For example, for "placesContext", "placesContext_open:newtab" and so on?
I tryed many combinations of parameters, before find the solution that solve the problem.
Best regards.

How do I stop spam tabs/new windows from opening constantly every time I click on anything?

Hi! I have been having this issue recently of new tabs and windows opening constantly on my MacBook whenever I click on whatever website. I mean, even when I was trying to write the question to post on this forum, a new window popped and opened in the back ... without me clicking on something related whatsoever! I read that it might be malware or similar stories, but nothing works, I don't seem to make them stop under any circumstances. Please help because I am sick and tired of closing unnecessary popping tabs and windows all day long. I use safari and I have a MacBook Air.

And ofcourse I found the answer as soon as I posted the question (doesn't it always happen that way?). I went to Preferences - General - and checked the box "Close windows when quitting an application".

Numerous bugs experienced: toolbar, tabs, new window

Here are some of the bugs I experienced in just a few hours with this clearly not ready for release version:
* Reload, stop loading and home buttons disappeared from toolbar
* Firefox no longer remembers the tabs I had open a previous session, nor does it issue the famous "Well, this is embarrassing..." message. They're just gone.
* I opened some new windows by holding down shift and clicking on a link. The window did not contain the contents of the linked site. And when I started Firefox again, each time it created one new window for each time I'd opened a new window. Right now, everytime I start Firefox 4, I get and must dismiss six blank windows.
* There is an extra title bar containing the orange Firefox menu, and extra minimize, maximize and exit buttons. The first two work normally; the exit button works only if more than one tab is open. It then dismisses the application.

Thanks for your reply
# Yes, I do want these buttons visible '''all the time'''. I don't actually need Firefox to do my thinking for me as regards what controls I want to see. :) Before posting I tried to find a solution, and found an article similar to the one you linked. The buttons weren't on the 'customize' panel that I could find. Nor did clicking 'restore default set' help. They are gone.
# I'd prefer it automatically restore my previous session, as 3.+ did. Is this no longer possible? That would be a shame, and a downgrade.
# Shift + click a link to open the link in a new window in inherent to Firefox prior to version 4.0. I've seen folks complaining about other features, like the status/progress bar, that one must now install add-ons to provide. Perhaps they took this useful feature out of 4.0. That would also be a shame, and a downgrade.
# I can't imagine what extension could be causing an extra title bar to appear, but I'm sure you're aware that Firefox won't actually run an extension that hasn't been tagged as compatible. There is, of course, no guarantee the developer didn't lie.
"Firefox 4.0 had like 10 times the number of Beta testers that any previous version of Firefox ever did."
Isn't it a pity the developers do not appear to have listened to them. They made changes for the sake of making changes - changes that aren't actually improvements, and they degraded the user experience for those long-time users.
I'll probably try it again around the end of the summer or so, when they've had a chance to shake some of these bugs out of it. Right now, it's just not useful or reliable enough for me.
But I do thank you for making the attempt to solve my problems. Take care.

I can only open up one window with multiple tabs; right click "open in a new window" does not work. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled Firefox with same results.

Just bought a new i5 laptop and am transferring files, etc onto new box. Last night I had two separate Firefox windows up. I downloaded Nexus Ultimate late and rebooted this morning. I had to restart Firefox then, and it did not save my settings/tabs as I prompted it to do when it shut down to reboot.
I uninstalled Nexus and wasted many hours trying to resolve this, including two failed system restores (looks like Nexus is a dirty little bugger) Windows Explorer will open up multiple windows. Firefox will not. Help.

Have you tried: click Firefox button > New Tab > New Window '''''OR''''' CTRL+N '''''OR''''' File > New Window (if using the Menu Bar)
Once open, Firefox locks the Profile that is in use and you can not open another window with that Firefox version and Profile combination using the Windows Desktop icon or the Windows Programs list.

Hi,
The view itself is a Web Part called an XSLT List View Web Part (XLV for short). This Web Part is stored on an ASPX page that is by default associated with a list or library on your site.
I suggest you can check if the view page is valid, also, you can try to create another view, then redirect to the view page to see if there is xslt in the page.
Here are some detailed articels for your reference:

Safari - say "no" to new tabs and new windows

i expect this has been raised many times and if this is the case then let this be another vote in returning safari browse behaviour back to what it once was.
After performing a search a results page is presented. Clicking on any one of those results will either cause a "new window" or a "new tab" to be opened depending on how you have the setting defined in preferences. Neither of these supports the very simple and perfectly usable "back" and "forward" arrow functionality that the planet has been using for the last number of years.
While I'm sure there is a good reason for this - I don't really care.
The previous "back" and "forward" functionality was great for jumping back and forth from site to site and other competing browsers (such as chrome) still have this as their default functionality.
Apple, please at least provide the option of choosing "tabs", "new windows" or (just my name for the above) "legacy".
Is there a way to create a voting buttons on this forum.
It would be interesting to see how the community views this.
What is the best way to show Apple what their users are thinking?
Greg

You can middle-click a link to open a link in a new tab or Shift + left click the link to open in a new window. Then you do not need an extension (that might stop qworking) to prevent replacing the current tab.

I am on Windows 7 64 bit.

You may be experiencing this Windows 7 bug:
* [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=870529 bug 870529] - Windows jumplist not showing anymore
Please do not comment in bug reports: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/page.cgi?id=etiquette.html

If Firefox is set as the default browser, and any application attempts to open a new window, this fails and I get the error "Firefox is already running..."

Here is what I am running:
Microsoft Windows 7, Service Pack 1, Fully updated to 4/10/2012
Fresh Install of Firefox 11. No add-ons enabled as a result of troubleshooting.
I am a user with administrator rights
UAS is disabled.
To begin, this has been going on Since Firefox 10 or so. A few months now.
I am able to open Firefox. My add-ons worked (ABP, Flashblock, ABP Element Hiding Helper, IETAB2, Downthemall, Greasemonkey, 4chan extension) had no problems. Firefox is set and has been set for the last two years as my default web browser.
However Since approximately Firefox 10 or so, maybe before that, If I have a Firefox session open, and any other application attempts to open a session in a new window, I get the Firefox is already running, but not responding error."
I attempted to follow troubleshooting advice already posted (look for parent.lock files left behind [none present], multiple sessionstore.js files [none present], create a new user profile, attempted to clear out the "read-only" permission in windows 7, however as soon as it is cleared, the read only permission returns.)
As a last resort, I deleted the Firefox folder, the %APPDATA%/Mozilla directory in its entirety, then utilized CCleaner to remove any and all references to Firefox in the windows registry, then did a full re-install, no extensions installed right now.
I checked preferences and have the option "open new windows in a new tab" checked off. The problem persists regardless if this option is checked on or off. This problem persists in or out of safe mode, even with the brand new install.
Test Cases:
All cases:
Firefox is selected as the default browser for windows 7
Case 1: Open a firefox session. Utilize any other program that attempts to open a link to their website in a new browser window or new browser session. Experience "Firefox is already running" error
Case 2: Open a firefox session. Right click on Firefox on the task bar. Select "open in new window". Experience "Firefox is already running" error
Case 3: Open a firefox session. Select the Firefox Menu > New tab > New Window. A new window will actually open.
This is the only method of opening a new window in the same browser session or profile that actually works on my system. Attempting to open a browser session from the task bar "open new window dialog" or opening a new window while a current window/session is running will not open firefox in a new window or a new tab in the current session. The "Firefox is already running, but is not responding" error will occur every time.

Cor-el's suggestion resolved my problem. Apparently the MOZ_NO_REMOTE variable was set to 1 on my system variables. I never made it, and really have no idea how it got there, but deleting this variable and restarting firefox has resolved the issue. Thanks Cor-el!
Marking case: Solved
Solution: Verify the MOZ_NO_REMOTE variable is NOT set to 1. This can be achieved by simply deleting this variable.

When will App Tabs glow?

I checked the "What are App Tabs?" and read the following descriptions:
App Tabs notify you with a blue highlight when they '''change'''.
* If you have Gmail set as an App Tab, for example, and you are using a different tab when a new email is received, your Gmail tab will glow.
I'm wondering the exact meaning of "change" because after I pinned Weibo.com(biggest twitter-like website in China) as an App Tab, new messages won't make the tab look different. So I want to know if there is an API to do the job or it's just the customized feature for only limited websites by Firefox itself. Thanks!

Quite simply, the blue highlight is caused by a change in title.
It was a fix implemented in response to the bug [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=577096 "App Tabs should indicate change of state in <title>"].
For proof of the above, enter the JavaScript code from [http://pastebin.com/pDj6Ruyc here] in the address bar and press enter.
The App Tab will then turn blue every time it loses focus, until it is next refreshed.
Brief explaination:
The code adds an event listener to change the title to a random number every time the tab is changed (ie. a blur event is fired). The containing void sets the return value to undefined, so the document content is not changed (which it would be otherwise).
JavaScript is a client-side (user-end) scripting language that can modify HTML (website) content throughout the duration of a single page (ie. until a new page is loaded/the same page is reloaded), and is built into all popular browsers, along with the ability to access it through the "javascript:" address protocol.
For the case of weibo.com, you would be well advised to have a look at the greasemonkey add-on for firefox, and either create your own script or persuade a friendly JavaScript coder to make one for you, that changes the title whenever a new message is received.

Is there anyway to get an App Tab to stay when I close the program then reopen it?...they always disappear when I open a new window etc.

Is there anyway to get an App Tab to stay when I close the program then reopen it?...they always disappear when I open a new window etc.
And I thought the whole point of an App Tab was to always have those tabs there no matter what window is open all the time period.
It's a minor complaint but I would really appreciate the option to permanently have them there.

I thought that app tabs would be more persistent, like pinning programs to the taskbar in Windows, but this is not the case.
Instead, once you close a Firefox window, all its tabs and app tabs are lost.
Essentially, this means that the close button in the upper-left corner of a Firefox window is now a "kill all open tabs and loose all App Tabs without warning++ " button. That is not cool.
I realize that "Firefox > Quit Firefox" behaves as intended, but many people use the more obvious red close button instead of the menu to close windows on a Mac. And it is easy to forget that the red button is now also an app-tab-death button. I've lost my app tabs many times to this issue. It is an unforgiving user interface decision which hampers the usability of app tabs. Why should I go through the extra clicks of setting up app tabs if I can loose them so easily?
Ideally, App Tabs could be saved separately from the currently open windows (perhaps create an option to save then to a special Tab Group that opens on startup?). App tabs would be exceedingly useful to me if they weren't so easy to loose.
On that note, saving Tab Groups would also be a useful functionality.
++ You will get a "closing multiple tabs" warning if you have only one window open, and that one window has multiple non-app tabs open, and you have enabled the warning in Preferences. But this too unreliable to help prevent the loss of app tabs.

One of my app tabs for some reason opened in a new window; how do I get it back w/other app tabs on original window?

I have 5 frequently-used websites on app tabs on my Firefox browser window. I've had these since I first saw the update about app tabs, and I have never before had a problem with it.
Today, I was working in one tab, and realized I needed to check something on the website at another app tab. I have done that sort of thing many times. But for some reason today, when I clicked on that other app tab, there seemed to be a long wait like it was working hard to make the switch, then suddenly a new Mozilla Firefox window opened with the only tab being the "another app tab" that I had clicked on.
That particular app tab is now missing from my original browser window.
I must've clicked something by accident or hit another key while I was clicking with the mouse on the app tab that I wanted to look at. I have no idea why it opened in its own window and disappeared from my app tabs on the original window.
How do I get that app tab back with the others on the original browser window? Is there any way other than simply starting over and re-pinning that site as an app tab?
If I have to re-pin it on the original window, is there a way to make that app tab the 1st in sequence the way it was before it opened in its own window? It is my most-commonly-used app tab, so I'd really like it to be the first in line, so to speak.
Thanks.

Make sure that you do not drag a tab in the browser window. 
Firefox 3.5 versions and later have a feature called tear-off tabs. 
You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window. 
You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.
