App Tabs can close by middle mouse button

App Tabs can closed by clicking middle mouse button on it. I think it is a bug.
Ru: Закрепленные вкладки можно закрыть средней кнопкой мышки. Я думаю это глюк.

I think the best action when you click middle mouse on app tab is to ''duplicate'' it. While click on regular tab will still close it.

I used to be able to open links in a new tab by clicking my middle mouse button, but now that I've updated it to the most recent update it doesn't work anymore. How do I fix this? I really love that feature. It works in IE and Chrome but not Mozilla.

Ok, I used to be able to open links up in a new Tab using my middle mouse button. However, I updated firefox with the automatic Updates on the 26th of October and now I no longer can open links with my middle mouse button. Why? I use this feature just about every time I go searching on the internet so I really would like it back. I couldn't find anything that it was related to in the options so I turn this over to you guys.

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

Middle mouse button does not open links in a new tab.

If your only solution is to tell me to:
1.Restart my computer
2.Start Firefox in safemode
3.Use another hotkey to open a new tab that's not middle mouse button.
Then don't even bother replying. As I've done the first two and it made no difference and 3rd option is a solution at all.
This is frustrating and I'm slightly upset that after reading 20+ Pages of the same problem dating back from 2011 that there are no answers.
I am on a fresh install Windows XP (Yes I know old school) with firefox version 27.0.1.

Cor-El I have done all of those as everyone else suggested on all of the other forums.
I plugged my mouse into another computer and it worked fine. So that lets me know its either something fishy with firefox or my computer.
As I was writing this I found out what my problem was. However I'm unsure of why. I'll explain here in case anyone else has a similar problem.
If I Middle click + Hold click for a solid second on the link it will open a new tab.
It just seems like there is a massive delay in my middle mouse click speed on this system.
Either way I'll investigate this further on my own. I appreciate all of your time.

Hp Stream 7 - Map Two Fingers To Middle Mouse Button

Hello all,
I hope that you can help me. I've scoured the web for an answer, but most solutions involve trackpads. Is there a way I can map the middle mouse button functionality to two fingers being pressed to the screen simultaneously?
All help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hey @Shesho,
Welcome to the HP forums.
I understand you have some questions about gestures on your Stream 7 tablet.
To the best of my knowledge you cannot reconfigure touchscreen gestures on Windows 8 tablets. You can see a list of gestures and how they work here: Touch: Swipe, tap, and beyond.
Hope that helps.

Copy with Unix Middle Mouse Button

You know how when you select a line on an SGI you can click the middle mouse button elsewhere and the line is pasted there? How do you get a Java program to accept that type of input. I'd like to be able to highlight a line somewhere, and click the middle mouse button within a text field on my GUI to paste it.

Using that idea, I got my code to paste whatever I had copied (ctrl-c) before within my text editor etc. But what about when you highlight something in unix, and click the middle button elsewhere. Apparently it isn't on the systemClipboard - any idea how to access it?

My middle mouse button can't open/close tabs in FF4.

middle mouse button is too convenient for me to loseeeee... =(

[BUG FIXED, see "EDIT 2" at the end of my post]
I'm on Firefox 3.6.21, and I got this problem today after a Greasemonkey update (To version 0.9.10, apparently).
Disabling Greasemonkey solved the problem, and re-enabling it reproduced the problem (middle-clicking links to open in new tab did not work, merely highlighted the link).
I should also note that while Greasemonkey was enabled and the bug was affecting me, Ctrl+Click to open links in new tabs was also broken.
I hope this helps!
EDIT: It appears this is a known incompatibility/conflict bug between current versions of Greasemonkey and Tab Mix Plus. Read more here:
https://github.com/greasemonkey/greasemonkey/issues/1406
EDIT 2: GREASEMONKEY HAS NOW BEEN UPDATED with a workaround to fix the problem. Go to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/versions/ to install the update manually. It hasn't been reviewed by Mozilla yet, so it won't be an automatic update for another day or two. All credit to "cannonfodder" below for noticing this; please mark his post as helpful!

Middle Mouse button to close tabs isn't working...??

in the earlier update my middle mouse buttons used to close as well as open tabs for me in firefox..
but after the update 32.0.2 this feature of mine seems to be not working....
Please be kind and reply to this problem sir..
Thanking you in Anticipation...
Sorry for the trouble...

Hello,
Can you check your '''about:config''' page to see if "browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick" is set to true?
In order to change your Firefox Configuration please do the following steps :
# In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
# Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''' to continue to the about:config page.
As for closing a tab with middle click, you may need an add-on. I use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/ Tab Mix Plus extension] for that feature.

Firefox did an automatic update to 6.01, and now my middle mouse button is not working in the browser. It doesn't close tabs, it doesn't open new tabs by middle clicking a link, it doesn't allow me to middle click to scroll the page...

Middle mouse button not opening links in new tab anymore

Sinc ea few days ago I can no longer open links in a new tab with my middle mouse button. All the other features in firefox that use it remain the same. (ie. middle click tab to close, tab bar to reopen last tab,scrolling.) I have changed no settings and have gone over them multiple times, but to na avail. Is it Firefox 6.0.1? Please help I like opening tabs without having to use a right click function.

You can also update to the unreviewed Greasemonkey 0.9.11:

How do I close tabs only by clicking a mouse button in Firefox 4?

In Firefox versions prior to 4.0.1. I used to be able to simply click on one of my middle mouse buttons to close the current tab. This feature no longer works in version 4. Now the mouse button closes all tabs. The only other ways I have found to close current tab is either move the cursor to the X on the tab and click it, or to use the keyboard shortcut ctrl+w. These methods are more cumbersome than simply clicking the middle mouse button from anywhere in the tab. How do I setup this feature in Firefox 4? Thanks.

Can you attach a screenshot?

Why is it that sometimes when I use my middle mouse button to click on a link to open it in a new tab I will have it open it in an entirely new instance of Firefox instead of a new tab?

Occasionally when I click on a link with my middle mouse button, instead of opening the page in a new tab, it will open a new instance of Firefox.
I've looked through some of the settings and I wasn't able to find anything. It really gets to be bothersome at times because I prefer things to be in tabs instead of a new browser.

It's not specific sites. I can middle-click on the same link 50 times and it will open it in a new tab 45 times and 5 of those times, it will randomly open it in an entirely new window. I don't know what's causing this.
It happens so randomly that I don't know how to pin-point what it could be.

Middle mouse button no longers open URL in new tab.

So, I'm on Firefox 6.0.2 and my middle mouse button no longer opens urls in new tabs.
It closes them, reopens old ones fine, just no longer opens links in new tabs.
Any ideas?

The problem may be about a Greasemonley update :

Middle mouse button does not function for Firefox Tab browsing when cetain programs are running.

My Microsoft Comfort Mouse 3000 middle button is set in Firefox to open and close tabs. (In Control Panel, Mouse, Firefox is the only program exception and the Wheel button is set to middle-click instead of the default Instant Viewer).
When vlc media player (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/) is running and at some point viewed in full screen, the middle mouse button reverts in Firefox to the default Instant Viewer. When vlc is closed, tab operation once again works.
The same thing happens if MWSnap screen capture (http://www.mirekw.com/winfreeware/mwsnap.html) is running.

Very glad to see I am not alone. Alas....that answer did nothing on my system. I also am very very frustrated that, all of a sudden, my middle mouse button brings up a weird four pointed arrow! (see pic) I NEED it to open links in tabs for researching!!
I turned off auto scrolling in the advanced settings. Restarted FF even...and nada.
I have disabled every single add on I had (only like 6 of them)...and nothing.
This happened all the sudden...I dont even know of an update. FF v3.6.10

Middle Mouse Button Opens Link In TWO Tabs

I, like many users, have only started having problems with Firefox since the onslaught of updates started. For the most part, they have either gone away with newer versions, or are minor annoyances.
MY PROBLEM: Whenever I use the middle mouse button to open a link, it now opens the link up in two separate tabs. This only started after upgrading to version 29, and didn't happen immediately (maybe a few days). I just updated to 29.0.1, which has done nothing in terms of fixing the issue.
It's not the mouse, as I can open Chrome, find a link, use the middle mouse button, and only get one tab.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Please don't reply anymore. If you don't want to read the OP, then you shouldn't reply. Thanks.

Bookmark tab + Middle mouse button

I've searched around a bit and can't seem to find this anywhere:
On my Mac I can middle-mouse click anything on my bookmark tabs and it will open a new window, however when I switch to my PC and do this it doesn't recognize it and there is no configuration ( that I can see ) to change it to detect it. I know my middle-mouse button is working because I can use it to click hyperlinks and open them up as new background tabs...
This is about the only thing right now that is keeping me from switching from Firefox on my PC. Any help on this is greatly appriciated!

IMHO the must-be feature is simply not yet implemented. But of cause you can file a feature request to https://bugreport.apple.com to ensure that Safari team wouldn't forget about it
