Can't get bookmarks to open in new tab Please Help

I have downloaded Safari 4 for Windows and I would like to have the bookmarks open in a new tab instead of the same tab that I'm on when I click on the bookmark link on the top left.
Can anyone please tell me if this is possible?
Thank you very much for any help.

Thanks for your relpy but I've already tried these solutions and no joy. I tried them again there just to be sure but still no good.
In the mean time I installed a plug-in that does this for me. I used My Homepage 1.2 and it's done the business.
Still don't know what was causing the problem. (And it wasn't a typo, I checked and copied and pasted urls from other locations...)

  • I can't get Firefox to open a new tab each time I click on a link or favorite. It keeps loading onto the current tab.

    I went to Tools>Options>Tabs and entered a check mark next to the first entry, "Open New Windows in a New Tab Instead" but it still does not open a new tab each time I click on a link or one of my favorites. It used to way back in earlier versions of Firefox but hasn't for the past few iterations...am I doing something wrong or do I need to activate something else within Firefox?

    '''''"I went to Tools>Options>Tabs and entered a check mark next to the first entry, "Open New Windows in a New Tab Instead" but it still does not open a new tab each time I click on a link or one of my favorites."'''''
    That option only controls pages that would open in a new window based on the code on the website page you are visiting.
    Firefox's default is to open a link or a Bookmark in the currently selected tab.
    You have some options to have links and/or Bookmarks open in a new tab:
    *middle-click the link or Bookmark (middle-click = press the mouse scroll wheel)
    *CTRL+left-click the link or Bookmark
    *right-click the link or Bookmark and choose "Open in New Tab"
    *install one of the following and set the options to automatically open links or Bookmarks in a new tab:

  • Can't get Firefox to open a new tab as my homepage or a specific url. Alwatys get 'The address isn't valid'

    When opening a new tab, I keep getting 'The Address isn't valid'. Went through all the fixes given in previous threads, changing the url in about:config, running Firefox in safe mode (problem still exists with plugins disabled) resetting Firefox, changed newtab settings to about:home etc, restarted, deleted cookies. Nothing seems to work. Some other program seems to be overriding the Firefox settings. May be a virus. I am using the latest McAfee software.
    I once had an add-on that brought up thumbnails with a new tab but I removed that a while back.
    On the right hand side search bar of firefox I can see that Bing is one of the dropdown search engine choices not that it should make a difference but I thougth they were sometimes a bit aggresive.
    Anyhow, would love to know if there is a solution as it's making me suspicious of having an undetected visus or hijacking.

  • When entering a new website it overrides the previous site, how can i get it to open a new tab instead

    I DON'T KNOW THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM, I JUST THOUGHT THAT IF THERE IS A WAY TO OPEN A NEW TAB EACH TIME YOU ENTER A NEW WEBSITE WITHOUT OVERRIDING THE PREVIOUS ONE. YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO REMEMBER TO ENTER THE PLUS SIGN EACH TIME YOU WANT TO OPEN A NEW WEBSITE.

    The setting in Tools > Options > Tabs: "New pages should be opened in": "a new tab/window" is for links that specify a target window to open the link.
    That option allows to divert such links to a new tab instead of a new window.
    For links that do not specify a target use a middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the link or use the right-click context menu to open the link in a new tab or window.<br />
    Left-click a JavaScript link to avoid getting a blank tab.

    You can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    You should still have your profile folder, so when you install 3. you will get your bookmarks and other user data back.
    There is a third party version of Firefox that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox

    Keep powering your phone off and back on, it can take up to 2 hours for a normal service provider to finalize the activation process.  When you got your new iPhone (congrats by the way) you should have received a little bubble that appeared that told you when the phone was activated, did you see that?

    Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities. 
    I'm sorry to hear that your iPhone 4s was lost, and glad that you were able to upgrade. 
    If your iPhone 4s was backed up to iCloud or using iTunes, you can restore the backed up data to your new phone. 
    See the steps in this article for help with restoring from a backup:

  • I want to swap my 3rd generation 64gb 3G ipad, for the same as a mini. However cellular is confusing me, can I get 3G on a cellular ipad? Please help

    I want to swap my 3rd generation 64gb 3G ipad, for the same as a mini. However cellular is confusing me, can I get 3G on a cellular ipad? Please help.  Want to put the sim I take out of the ipad into the mini. On the apple shop website, the cellular model is £100 more expensive then the 3G one, however in currys it only sells cellular. I do not want to make a mistake it's a lot of money.

    3G and cellular are different ways of referring to the same thing, they can use the mobile networks for data. The cellular/3G models are £100 more than the wifi-only version.
    The 3rd gen iPad uses a micro-sim card, the Mini iPads use smaller nano-sim cards, so you won't ba able to use the same sim card.

  • How can i stop firefox from opening a new tab everytime I click anything on the browser

    whenever I click or point anywhere on firefox, a new tab will open to http://download-start.com/?aspid=a278a0e56df428562d5072bf6b4dbdeb&SourceId=355&CreativeId=18399430&LineItemId=5734966&PublisherId=619892&SectionId=177555785&ymid=00011da109fa63fd94898b658da047f783b81 and it is so annoying as even clicking on the scroll bar will open this tab. please help me find solution to this. I can't even finish typing this because I had to scroll down to see the full page.

    hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by malware on your pc. please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and do a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

  • How can I stop Firefox from opening a new Tab as Babylon Search?

    So I recently downloaded Babylon (for an offer), and Babylon search started to open when I open a new Tab. I've uninstalled the Babylon program and the Search Add-On, but it still keeps on opening. is there any possible way that I can fix this? I want to open my new Tab as a blank page.

    Hello, i'll teach you how:
    # First, at the web address, go to about:config
    # When a warning shows up, just hit "I'll be careful, I promise!"
    # Then at the search bar, just type this - browser.newtab.url
    # Just right click on the result, and hit "Reset"
    View the picture I've attached for reference.
    That's it!

  • I restored my most used sites page through troubleshooting but then downloaded stylish and the alt. browser came back when i open a new tab. Help?

    I downloaded some dodgy software and having cleared it up it seems to have installed an alternative browser (delta?) and toolbar to my firefox. I've uninstalled the toolbar, but when i open a new tab, instead of my most used pages, it came up with the delta browser. So I followed the instructions on here and troubleshooted and restored the default settings of firefox. This worked until I re-installed the add on Stylish to customise webpages, and now it seems to have come back. Having uninstalled stylish it hasn't changed. Can i not use stylish now, or is there a way of my completely getting rid of this delta, enabling me to use the add on as before?
