Automatically open a new tab in Safari with a link

I hate having to hold down a link in Safari in order to open that link in a new tab. Is there a way to automatically have links open in new tabs in Safari without having to do this every time?

Hold down the command key while selecting the menu item.

Opening a new tab in safari opens an untitled tab while replacing the existing tab with top sites

When I open a new tab in safari, it opens an untitled tab while replacing the existing tab with top. Then if I have other tabs open, the website url of the page I was on before I opened the untitled tab freezes and is shown on each other tab.
How can i fix this problem? It is starting to occur with increasing frequency.

I had the same problem and I suspect you are using Glims. I uninstalled Glims and voila, problem gone. I reinstalled Glims and the problem returned.
Link to Glims uninstaller for those who have this problem http://www.MacHangout.com/dwnlds/Glims-UnInstall.dmg.zip
I'll report the bug and hope they fix it soon, I like Glims.

When opening a new tab in Safari, the spinning wheels appears

Please help, I have very basic skills on a computer, so please make this simple and easy!!
When I open a new tab in Safari, it freezes and the spinning wheel appears. It stays on there for a long period of time and does not disappear. In order to get on I need to Force closure in Safari and restart the computer. Sometimes this will solve the problems and sometimes it needs to be restarted a few times.
This is really annoying and stops me using my mac.
MacBook Pro 13-inch, Mid 2012
Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 384 MB

I have checked and all updates have been installed.
Many Thanks

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take an action that isn't working the way you expect. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

How to put the focus on the address bar, when opening a new tab in Safari?

Dear users, I'm using Safari 6.0.3 (8536.28.10) under OSX 10.8.3. Until recently, whenever I opened a new tab in Safari, the focus was always on the address bar, which was quite useful. However, since last week, maybe after an update (I don't know exactly), the focus of a new tab is always on the page, not the address bar. How can I go back to the previous configuration? I changed no options, it simply got sudeenly different, and it's quite annoying. Thank you for the help.

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
If any extensions are installed, disable them and test.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

I cannot open a new tab using the + or Ctrl T or from the file menu. The only way to open a new tab is to click a link. How do I fix this?

The only way to open a new tab is to click a link like in an email, or right click to tell it to open a new tab. When I click the + or Ctrl T nothing happens.

Uninstall 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.
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

FF7 will not open new tab with new window. overwrites same tab. If I manually open a new tab, then the new window appears there. In previous versions, the new window would automatically open a new tab. This tab 'overwriting' ia very annoying.

You won't let me! The 'red' prompt says I have use more than 255 characters.

By accident, after nearly an hour of playing with FF7, I discovered that by pushing down (like a button) on the scroll wheel or holding down CTRL key will open a new tab to the right of existing tabs when selecting a bookmarked site or link within a webpage.

Safari can't automatically open a new tab on my Home Page?

OK - I have searched all over the web and this discussion site - are you telling me that outside of using a combination of keyboard shortcuts that Safari - UNLIKE EVERY OTHER BROWSER OUT THERE - can't open a new tab on the user's home page? Let's see if unlike every other post I've ever made to the discussion groups I will get an answer from someone.

are you telling me that outside of using a combination of keyboard shortcuts that Safari - UNLIKE EVERY OTHER BROWSER OUT THERE - can't open a new tab on the user's home page?
Correct. If you create a tab group you could click one bookmark entry to quickly open up your preferred homepages.
You're not the first to ask and not the only person who would like to see this. Send feedback via Safari menu > Report Bugs to Apple...

Firefox automatically opens a new tab with search results

When I visit a URL, Firefox loads that page and also opens a new tab with a URL based on some word in the original page. E.g., www.tripadvisor.com url opened in a new tab. Is this a feature I can turn off?
E.g., I searched for "shovel" in the location bar. A list of results was presented. The first one was as follows. When I clicked on that link, the Amazon.com page with a bunch of shovels opened, as well as another tab with the home page of Amazon.com.
May be this is a Google issue and not Firefox issue.
Amazon.com: Shovels
Online shopping for Shovels from a great selection of Patio, Lawn & Garden & more at everyday low prices.

When opening a new tab in Safari...

Is there a way to keep Safari from opening up my recent searches window every time I make a new tab in Safari?
I find it annoying that it always pops down And gets in the way of the bookmarks bar etc.

Clearing Safari's history : Settings > Safari > Clear History
Then close Safari completely and when you re-open it your search history should have gone (though focus will still default to the search box). To close Safari : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

When I click on a website it opens a new tab or window with an advertisement

When I click on a website, whether it be after doing a search to open a site or when I hit enter after entering a password or even just click on next to go to the next page, mozilla pops up a new tab or window with an advertisement in it. It has been doing this for several weeks now. I have tried running antivirus software and it hasn't helped.

Problems opening a New Tab in Safari from Bookmark Bar Folder

When I am in Safari and attempt to Open a link to a new tab from the Bookmark Bar that is part of a Folder on the Bookmark bar it does nothing.
I can change the preferences to auto-click for the Bookmark Folders, but then every link loads when I try to access the folder from the Bookmark Bar. Very cool to see lots of pages loading at once, but not what I'm after. Doesn't seem to be a way to just load 1 link from the folder
If its a single link on the Bookmark Bar that has not been organized into a Folder it does work.

You know what? - my Safari works just the same way.... but I'd never noticed before.
I've used apple-click to open single bookmarks from the bar, many times. But have always ( for no particular reason) opened a new tab first ( apple-T ) if I've been looking for bookmarks within a folder.
