By opnening a new tab, how can I stop Babylon search opening

I am a fervent Firefox user and using the new Firefox 4.0 with great pleasure. However in this new version every time I open a new tab, it opens with Babylon search. How can I stop this. I want to open it standard with Google search.
Best regards.
Wim van den Hil

Go to the "Tools" menu and select "Add-ons". It will open a popup. Click in the "Extensions" tab. Look for the "Babylon Search" extension. Click the "Uninstall" button. Then close and reload Firefox.

First i open google search page.after seeing the results if i click in any site the site appears in a new tab.how can i stop this?

these days i face this problem.whenever i click on a site it appears in a new tab.how can i stop it?

The Google Search setting has an option '''Where results open'''. If it is selected, you can try deselecting that. If it doesn't solve the problem, please check if this happens in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode]. Safe mode disables the installed '''Extensions''', and themes ('''Appearance''') in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - the manual setting is '''Tools''' > '''Options''' > '''Advanced''' > '''General''' > [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Advanced%20panel?as=u '''Use hardware acceleration when available''']. All these settings/options/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme, option or hardware acceleration is causing issues. Disabling/enabling hardware acceleration, and some types of add-ons in normal mode may require a Firefox restart.

When I load firefox it opens my home page then a new tab. how can I stop the new tab

I just need firefox to open my homepage, not open a new tab

You can check the target line in the Firefox desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties) to make sure that nothing is appended after the path to the Firefox program.
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

You changed the order of the menu for "Open in a new window" or "Open in new Tab", How can I change it back? Or how can I omit any reference to tabs? I do not use them at all.

The setting in "Tools > Options > Tabs" only works for links that would open in a new window. 
That option allow you to divert such calls to a new tab. 
For other links you either have to use a middle click or a Ctrl + left click or use the context menu.

When opening a new tab, how can I specify a site or empty? My tabs open to a site I don't want to see.

When opening a new tab, how can I specify a site, homepage or empty? My new tabs open to a site I don't want to see.

A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.

You can middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at this extension to set which page to open in a new tab:

How can I stop ID from opening docs in full screen

How can I stop ID from opening docs in full screen in ID 5.5?

You didn't answer the OS question, but I'm going to presume it's some version of OS X. This has been, I think, a common complaint among Mac users, but as a PC person I don't remember what exactly can be done about it, if anything. On thing you might want to try is using the Application Frame.

How can i stop preview from opening firefox? I'm on a late 2007 macbook pro running Mountain lion. I would rather have it open Safari when I click on a link within a pdf not firefox. Help?

How can I stop the "Cannot Open iTunes" dialog

How can I stop the "Cannot Open iTunes" dialog when more than one user is logged into the computer without switch to the user using and closing iTunes. Why doesn't the dialog AT LEAST have the option to 'Do not attempt to open iTunes for this User any more' instead of the lazy programmer OK button only. OR Even the Do not ask this again option.

Just adding to the last answer:
Sony Reader; free download from Sony intended to run with Sony eReaders but works quite happily without.

I prefer ADE1.7.2 to Sony Reader, and Calibre to either (for DRM-free books),
but Sony Reader certainly worth a try to see how you get on with it.

When opening a new tab how can i get the yahoo search engine off of the new tab to where its just a blank tab ?

When opening a new tab it automatically loads the yahoo search engine in the new tab. It use to just open a blank tab..how do I remove the Yahoo search engine from loading in a new tab ?

To make it a blank page again go to:
Tools and then click on add-ons
Then scroll down and disable "My.Freeze.com Net Assistant"
This should fix your problem :)

You might want to update Safari to 3.12. I would empty the safari cache. (Safari>Empty Cache). Then quit Safari. System Preferences>Network>Show:Airport>TCP/IP. Insert the following into the DNS Servers box;
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
then hit apply. Now launch Safari. You should also try powering down modem, router and Mac and power up in 2 minute sequence; modem, router, Mac.

How can I stop Firefox from opening (to "File Not Found") when opening my Opera browser?

Ever since I installed Opera 10.61 on my new computer (Windows 7 Ultimate operating system), whenever I open Opera, Firefox opens one second later with the following error message:
'''File not found '''
Firefox can't find the file at /C:/Users/Nasheed/AppData/Local/Opera/Opera/temporary_downloads/client-en.xml.
* Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
* Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.
TRY AGAIN.

This happens EVERY TIME I OPEN THE OPERA BROWSER. How can I stop this from happening? I'm stumped.
[EXTRA INFO - I was unable to enable Firefox to access my previous profile on the new computer (despite putting the old profile in the appropriate Mozilla Firefox folder. So, there are now two profiles in that location.
After reading the answer to another forum member's question, I attempted to resolve the problem using Profile Manager, but I was unable to locate the Profile Manager. The Windows "Search" feature is not enabled on my new computer (nor can it be enabled from the Customize Start Menu options).]

Thank you for your response, Cor-el.
I had Opera set as my default browser since this began happening. I changed my default browser back to Firefox mainly because having Firefox open one or two seconds every time I open Opera was/is such a nuisance.
I believe this problem began because I attempted to manually transfer the files from my old computer to the new one (via the backed up files in my external drive). I was unfamiliar with Windows 7 when I did this. Microsoft changed the file set up from what I had been used to in Windows XP. I used XP for six years before being exposed to Windows 7 (I never had Vista).
I'm almost sure this problem has something to do with where I placed the application data when I was trying to reestablish the program set up on the new computer.

How can I stop mail from opening single page attachments.

I open some mail attachments in Notetaker app to make adjustments to some pages before sending on but when an attachment is only a single page it opens in the email message itself and then I can't open it. How can I stop this happening?
Hopefully thanks in advance
John

Hi Dave! This may help if you should want to save your emails to your computer which AM can do.
--Open Mail
--From Application Toolbar choose MAIL
--Choose ACCOUNTS from Mail tool bar
--Choose "Account Information"
--In the bottom right hand box -- Choose the "drop down box" (blue arrows) and Choose the mail box you want to send mail from
--Check "Use only this server". (Safari has a drop down on their tool bar that allows you to choose which box you want to send from.)
Go to Safari or a Web Page and send an email message. See if this works.
Of course, I'm assuming you have filled in the Account information for all your mailboxes. If not, that's a whole different procedure but well worth the effort, all your mailboxes are at your fingertips and you can save all your mail to your computer, back it up and never loose a word. :-)
Another caveat: I am using OS X 10.6.8 and the later versions of OS X may have dropped or modified Mail. Perhaps someone using one of the newer versions can add their knowledge here.
AM has many useful perks, it just takes time to find them but they really are worth the effort.
