Can I specify a page to be opened when I click 'new tab' instead of the 'empty' tab?

When I open a new tab, I'd like to be able to specify what it opens, instead of the 'empty' tab.

There are a number of extensions that provide a feature like that.

How do I set what page will open up when I click new tab?

I just downloaded something from the internet and ASK is now my default page when I open up a new tab. I managed to set what page I wanted when I open up the browser, but when I am in the browser and I click NEW TAB it goes back to ASK. Any ideas?

You may need to remove an Ask extension. You can check on the Add-ons page:
Tools menu > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions, then disable/remove unwanted (or unrecognized) extensions.
The actual address for the new tab page is a hidden setting. To adjust it:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box that appears above the list, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter the desired value:
* ''Page thumbnails (default)'' => about:newtab
* ''Blank tab'' => about:blank
* ''Built-in Firefox home page'' => about:home
* ''Any other page'' => full URL to the page
Press Command+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?

Firefox home page doesn't open when I click on Firefox. Have to go to File and click on New Window to get into Start Page.

Firefox doesn't open when I click on it. I have to click on New Window under File to get my bookmarks and a search page
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== No way to know. Nothing new has been done to Firefox.

If you close Firefox, then start Firefox in Safe Mode, does the problem still occur? For instructions on starting in Safe Mode, see [[Safe Mode]].
BTW, you really should upgrade to the latest version. See [[Updating Firefox]]

How can I locate my iTunes library files. When I click on my itunes icon the message appears, "The file iTunes Library.itl." cannot be found because it was created by a newer version of iTunes."

How can I locate my iTunes library files? When I click on my iTunes icon rather than my iTunes files I receive, " The file iTunes Library.itl." cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." I have already tried to update my iTunes program.

Had same problem and solved it without having to reinstore any music or movies:
1. Delete old Library file
2. Go to the 'Previous iTunes Libraries' folder and copy one of the earlier files - note, they have a date extension, e.g. 'iTunes Library 2011-11-01'.
3. Paste this file in your iTuners folder and rename file by removing the date extension - 'iTunes Library'
You should have all your music and paylists in tact, unless it was a really old previous file.

A search engine page has started appearing when I press New Tab. There are no new add-ons. How can I get back to the frequently-used sites thumbnails?

I used to get a page of thumbnails when I pressed + for a new tab but now I get a search engine that seems to be "Connect SP 6 Toolbar". I can't find it to delete in the Add-Ons or Extensions.

You can check these extensions and try to uninstall ro disable them.

Web page different from opening link in a new tab or new window from Google search results

I had been using another browser for a few months because I did not want to lose the web pages I opened within Mozilla. I began using Mozilla again after saving off the web pages. I see that Google's web page pulls in search results as I type in keywords, a feature I don't remember seeing with other browsers along with a magnifying glass icon, like a look ahead of what a web page looks like before clicking on the link.
With the list of search results, I click on the link and tell Mozilla to open the link in a new tab. I see the google icon, "loading..." or "testing...", then results other than the link I wanted. Those other results maybe bing.com, http://66.45.255.230/click.php?c=0920f96609cb269f1d0045095c09, http://superpages.iarbiz.com/o6gIoMdG6so=-tQ1LeOu1v0kY34rDZ|oRy8Xt294ACu6X, Info.com, Supermedia Reverse Proxy (http://superpages.iarbiz.com/o6gIoMdG6so=-tQ1LeOu1v0kY34rDZ|oRy8Xt294ACu6X)or whatever else. As for the link, I managed to press stop before being redirected.
This is with any search results listed.
I thought it was Google.
Changed to Instant is off.
Nope. Still the same issue. Have already gone after malware. Tried resetting the redirect value to 0.
Above results also occur when opening the link in a new page via right menu click.
Copying link location and pasting in a new window is displaying results okay.
When resuming use of Mozilla, an update was available and installed. Did not experience the above issues before the update.
Running version 3.6.12. Running Win XP Pro SP3.
Had to go back to IE and Chrome/SRWare Iron.
Example:
Google keywords: rental cars
Clicked on Ad: _Avis_Rent_a_Car_, link is Avis.com
Clicked on top search result: Hertz_Rent-a-Car_-_Rental_Car_Discounts,_Coupons,_and_Great_Rates (magnifying glass), www.hertz.com

Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs. 
You need to use all programs because each detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

The publishing settings page does not open when I click on the domain name and the iWeb application will not stay on the dock.

Hello,
I have been trying to help a friend who is having problems publishing her website. (She has done so previously using Mobile me)
There seem to be a couple of things wrong with the application,
1 if I drag the application icon onto the dock, it won't stay there
2 I wanted to change where her site is published to (she has bought a domain name and has a hosting service now) but when I click on the domain name I do not get the "site publishing settings page" so we can't enter the new details. All that comes up is the main page of her website.
I would suggest uninstalling and re-installing Iweb, to see if that clears the problem, but as Iweb came pre-installed with her Imac, I am not sure that we can do this.
Any ideas please?
she's using and imac 24 in (approx 4 years old) and running osx 10.5.8

NO - not correct. Even if you are still using iWeb 08, you can still publish to another host and not MobileMe. You do this by selecting the option 'Publish to a local folder" and this will publish the site to your desktop and you can then use an ftp programme such as Cyberduck to upload your site to your host.
MobileMe will not be here after the end of June, so you will have to find alternative hosting. They are not taking any new subscriptions.
On new Macs, iLife 11 is pre-installed, but only iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand are included, not iWeb and iDVD. The Apple Online store is not selling the boxed version of iLife 11 any longer, so if you want to upgrade to iLife, then you'll have to look online at Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk for a boxed set of either iLife 09 or iLife 11. Both contains iWeb 09, which is what you would want.

Can no longer set firefox to always open links in a new tab

In the previous version I was able to set a preference that had firefox always open a clicked link in a new tab. Now I have to right click and select the option. I'm disappointed, I want that feature again. Is it hidden somewhere?

How can i setup pages to automatically open when double clicked. Currently when I double click it creates cpgz file and does not open. The only way to open pages doc is to manually ask to open with pages.

Currently when I double click it creates cpgz file and does not open. The only way to open pages doc is to manually ask to open with pages.

Hi Karen,
Sounds like OS X has lost the association between Pages and its files.
Start by quitting Pages, then going to Finder.
In Finder, locate a .pages file. Click on it (once), then press command-I (eye, not one) to Get Info.
In the Info window that opens, expand the Open With section.
In this section, click on the pop-up menu and choose Pages (even if Pages is already shown).
Click the Change All button to associate all files with the .pages extension with Pages.
Close the info window.
Double click any .pages file to check that Pages will now launch and open the file.
Regards,
Barry

Why can't I use Alt+Enter to open addresses in a new tab?

Why can I no longer use Alt+Enter in 6.0 on Windows Vista.
I have tried Customizable Shortcuts, the shortcut isn't even listed.

The To More Specific node is dealing with compile-type inference. In this case, you are loading a default instance from disk and then attempting to cast to the base Message class. However the type you are casting to is going to a dynamic output - this gives the compiler no assurances that the input class at run-time on the dynamic input will be the same as the output type; only that it will be a type at the top of the hierarchy. Dyanmic dispatch inputs/outputs must be the same type to guarantee some form of type safety.
You need the Preserve node there so that you can guarantee the class at both dynamic dispatch terminals will be the same type.
However this is probably not the best mechanism for a factory method. Factory methods should ideally be static; their job is to provide an instance of the right type (e.g loaded by path as per your example) and you don't need an instance of a class to do that. The only reason I can think of to over-ride said functionailty in a dynamic dispatch method is to provide some form of custom construction for the creation of the type. If all you are creating is an instance with nothing but the default private data then there is no reason to over-ride in the child classes.
EDIT: Another post collision. nathand is on the money with this one.

HT1345 i have a new macbook air, can i now sync my iPod classic with iTunes on my new computer instead of the Dell I was synching with before?

Hi I have just aquired a new MacBook Air and I want to stop using my old Dell laptop as my itunes synch with my ipod. Can I now sync the Ipod with the itunes account on my new Macbook? I am worried it will take hours to synch if I choose the erase and synch option?

Is all the content from your iTunes library on the old Dell laptop now on your MacBook air? If you copied the entire iTunes folder and copied it over the existing iTunes folder, your iPod will still think it is being synced to the same iTunes library and there would be no need to do an erase and sync.

Using FF 33.0, pages are not loading when I click on tabs loaded in the background. How do I fix this?

Additional information: I have Tab Mix Plus and UnLoadTab installed, and neither of them is set to load the tab(s) before selected manually.

In the tabs menu under the Firefox Menu > Options > Tabs section, is do not load tabs until selected also checked?
Does this also happen when the add ons are disabled? [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]

Can I specify a page to be opened when I click 'new tab' instead of the 'empty' tab?
