Can I set firefox to auto go to my homepage when i open a new tab

When I open a new tab I want it to show my homepage rather than a blank screen

You can do that by using an add-on such as:
* NewTabURL - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl
* New Tab Homepage - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage
Another way of opening the home page in a new tab is to middle click on the home button in the navigation toolbar.

  • How can I set or reset the page that is loaded when I open a new tab using Ctrl t ?? by

    I recently downloaded a program that has, as an undesired additional action, apprently setup Yahoo as the page that opens by default when I open a new tab using <Ctrl> <t> (or the <+> symbol on the tab bar). This is aggravating to me, particularly as I have not been able to find a way to stop it occurring.
    I expect that it is buried somewhere in my profile, but I also have not found a way to explore or edit the contents of my profile.
    There is a JScript script file called "user" in ...\profiles\4g4vpust.default that I suspect is associated with the behaviour, but renaming it achieved nothing.
    Prior to this, my new tabs used to open as blank pages, i.e. did not load any URL and I was happy with that. How can I get back to that state?

    Did it add the freeze net assistant add-on? That add-on is known to do this. If you have that add-on you can uninstall it Firefox should revert to the default behavior.
    If you do not have that add-on, another add-on will be causing this, you can use the procedure in the following link to identify what one - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

  • Sir, i set the speed dial in home page,but when i open the new tab its show only the blank page,can you say the ways to show the speed dials whenever i open tab

    plz say the way to set the speed dials which i set in home page whenever i open the new tab instead of blank page

    Make sure the new tab feature is enabled:
    * On the address bar, go to '''about:config''' (Just be careful)
    * Set '''browser.newtabpage.enabled''' to '''true'''
    To set the homepage to show the new tab page:
    * Go to Firefox Menu > Preferences > General
    * Set '''When Firefox starts''' to '''Show my Home page'''
    * Set '''Home Page''' to '''about:newtab'''
    So that a new tab opens the new tab page
    * On the address bar, go to '''about:config''' (Just be careful)
    * Set '''browser.newtab.url''' to '''about:newtab'''

  • How do I set firefox to open my homepage when I open a new tab?

    This is really key for me, because Google is my homepage and if I can't just open a new tab and have it go to Google then I will probably not choose firefox as my permanent browser.

    When entering the URL either as your home page or new tab page, I suggest using the full URL https://www.google.com/ since otherwise there is a slight delay as Google redirects Firefox to the secure page.

  • Firefox not scrolling or scrolling very slowly when i open a new tab, this just started within the last few weeks. Ive tried reloading firefox but have the same problem.

    when i am using firefox if i click on a link that opens a new tab the new page wont scroll or scrolls very slowly. this has never happened before and i have had many many tabs open at once without any problem, now if i have just two the second one gives me these problems while the first one continues to work fine.

    You can use an extension to set which page to open in a new tab:

    *My Homepage: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/my-homepage/

  • How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?

    How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
    An app changed it to some other search engine, before installing the app, I the tab that would open was the homepage I set.
    In my case it is Google, and I want my new tabs to open on Google like they did before the installation.
    thank you,
    Asaf Privman.

    You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
    You can look at one of these extensions:

  • How can I make firefox give the focus (the cursor) to the address bar when I open a new window - as it does when I open a new tab (to about:blank)?

    When I open a new tab using CTRL-T, the address/awesome bar has the focus.
    When I open a new window using CTRL-N, it does not.
    Can the behaviours be made consistent via setting a configuration option or key?
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Hello wodow, please check it in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode#firefox:linux:fx27 safe mode], do you have the same behaviour ? DO NOT reset, select "Start in Safe Mode".
    thank you

  • I have Mozilla Firefox installed, w/. my Home Page setup to be opened on It every time. I can open a new window on It too, but when I open a new tab, every time open this new tab w/. Untitled Page. I wanna It opening w/. my Home Page.

    Firefox is coded to open new tabs in a blank page. That may change in Firefox 4. I don't know.
    In the meantime, there is an add-on called Tab Mix Plus that I think provides that option. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1122/

  • When i open a new tab I can't put in the website I want to access why?

    when I open a new tab it does not give me the option to put in a new web address. I used to have Facebook on Foxfire and I can't get to it to come up on foxfire anymore. It is not even in my history and it was one website I used everyday on Foxfire. I hope you can help so I can get it back on foxfire.

    If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
    * Go to "View > Toolbars" and check-mark "Menu Bar" with a click if you want to make that permanent
    See [[Menu bar is missing]]
    Make sure that all the toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    * If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    * If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

  • I have all tabs set to open with Google search, but when I open a new tab and start typing, the letters appear in the address bar and not the Google search bar. It didn't used to be like this!

    Firefox 9.01; Windows 7 64 bit;
    One of my set of home pages is the basic Google search page. When I open this, I can immediately start typing and the words appear in the Google search box.
    If however I open a new tab (white cross far right of tab bar) and start typing, the words appear in the address bar, not in the Google search box. Of course once I click in the search box I can carry on: but I'd like to make it start there as it does with the homepage.

    If you want a specific webpage (like the Google page) to always open when you open a New Tab, you can use the following add-on to Open New Tabs with your Favorite Pages:
    -> NewTabURL 2.2.3
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    * NewTabURL will not work until you set the page that you want to open in the Options for it.
    * click Add-ons > Extensions, click Options next to NewTabURL.
    Check and tell if its working.
    Not related to your problem but do the following:
    -> Update Firefox to the latest version 10
    * [[Installing Firefox on Windows]]
    -> Update All your Firefox Plugins -> https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/

  • How can I change my settings so that when I open a new tab, it opens a designated home page instead of a blank 'Untitled' page?
