Everytime i open a new tab or search a url, i ge a page called imesh to come up. how do i make tabs and serching blank in the settings?
it may be caused by bloatware but i still need to rid my browser of some useless extension i somehow have gotten. http://search.imesh.com/ comes up every time.
This is caused by the InternetEngine - Powering Applications! extension. If you uninstall that extension it should stop this happening.

New tabs are not updating the names of the sites they have loaded. When I open a new tab and load a site, the tab simply stays named "New Tab". When I open a link in a new window, it shows "Connecting..." even while its fully loaded.
This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

When starting Firefox my set homepage shows up, but everytime I open a new tab it goes to a blank search page automatically. How do I change it so my homepage will show every time a tab is opened?
I'm using Firefox 3.6.10
When I opened a new tab, Bing search showed up. When I start up Firefox for the first time, Google remained my home page.
I went to Tools, Add-Ons where I found a Search Toolbar that was powered by Bing. After I disabled it, new tabs opened up blank.
I downloaded Google Toolbar and now my new tabs are Google again. -
Java script application appearing everytime i open a new tab
Hi,
Everytime I open a new tab on my computer, a message pops up with Java script application in a box with a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark symbol. I have to click ok twice before I can continue using the internet.
Can you please tell me how to fix this, I think this happened after I upgraded my mozilla website.hello annap2677, you have quite a few malicious addons present. please try these steps:
# [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
# afterwards go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
# finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

My firefox, after update to 37.0.2 is closing everytime I open a new tab
Hello,
My firefox, after update to 37.0.2 is closing everytime I open a new tab.
I started with a new profile and have the same problem.
I formated my HD and instaled everything again, and I still have the same problem
Regards,
CristalYou can check for issues with the new tab page setting.
See this article about the New Tab page (about:newtab):
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites
You can check the <b>browser.newtab.url</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page and set that pref to your preferred new tab page.
* the default new tab page with the tiles is <b>about:newtab</b>
* the default home page is <b>about:home</b>
* for a blank page you can use <b>about:blank</b>
The browser.newtabpage.enabled pref should be set to true to use the page set via browser.newtab.url as the new tab page.
You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

I must press 'ok' before I can proceed. This happened after I clicked 'deactivate' when I got a new screen when I opened a new tab, which was also a hassle. Previously, I opened a new tab and life was good...no new screens, no messages....
What happened?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).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
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.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
>In Firefox 4 Safe mode also disables plugins (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and hardware acceleration (Tools > Options > Advanced > General) -
How to stop multiple auto-switching to address bar every time I open a new tab and try to type something anywhere outside of address bar? Like something just wants me to use that embedded search when u type something not-web-address in address bar and hit enter. And the most ridiculous thing is that it happens repeatedly on like every second, like I just move down from address bar and start typing again, but then again it switches me to address bar, and 3, 4 times like that. And the result is also that I can't see the address of that page.
I think its has something to do with my AVG antivirus, because this started the same time some AVG Nation started to appear in every new tab i open (and thats also irritating me, I read about it here on support.mozilla.org and it seems that the only solution is to completely reinstall Firefox, but I dont want to lose all my settings) but when i type something in address bar and hit enter it opens the search results in Google.
Please try to help me, I like Firefox but I must switch to Chrome until I fix this problem.
Thanks in advanceFirst, please update to Firefox 32. 22 is no longer support nor is it secure. Then let us know if you still have this problem. [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]

Up until the other day, opening a link in a new tab via right click created the new tab but did not change my view to that new tab. However, since yesterday opening any new tab changes my view from the page I was browsing on to the new tab. Although it seems minor, this seriously negatively impacts the way I browse. Is there any way to change it back? I do not see it within the settings.
Tools > Options > Tabs - is the last preference there check-marked??

Minefield just would not open pages, whatever I tries to type in the addressbar the URL just stayed there and nothing happened. Even if I opened a new tab and put a new url again it did not even start loading the page. This is happening since the last updates from today or yesterday. I already removed minefield and installed it again

See [[Basic Troubleshooting|#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

So yes like mentioned above...i am a new mac user...have only had it about four days and have had a windows based system always before this. The issue I am having is that I will be in safari and it will work perfect for a while and then i will open a new tab and attempt another website and it will either be extremely slow or will give the error that it cannot connect to the server, however, when i run diagnostics my internet is fine. The only solution i have found is to reboot and geeksquad has been unable to replicate the problem while connected to my computer to try to do so. Does anyone have any suggestions or anyone else with this problem? If you have a "fix" please try layman's terms because again I have no idea about macs haha. Thanks,

I get a blank page when I open a new tab and would lie to have the thumbnails back - HOW?
Firefox ver. 16.0.2
Win 7
I have tried the suggestions I find on the web.
Your support page says:
"The Firefox New Tab page shows pictures of the sites you visit frequently. Sometimes, some or all of these images are not displayed. We'll explain why that happens and how to get them back when it's possible."
No I don't get any pictures at all when I open a new tab - It's blank, but I click on the following link:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thumbnails-on-new-tab-page-are-missing
I click on the link to follow instructions and end up here:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites
I click on this link: "The images of my top sites are gone - how do I get them back?"

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites#w_the-images-of-my-top-sites-are-gone-how-do-i-get-them-back
and end up here:
See The thumbnails on the new tab page are missing - how to get them back.
I click on the link for information and end up..... were I started.
So - Could someone be nice and explain how I get the thumbnails back?!
Because I refuse to use IE, but considering Opera..... Please advice!You can change this in Firefox's about:config preferences editor.
(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 filter box, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter the desired value:
''(i) Page thumbnails (default)''
about:newtab
''(ii) Blank tab''
about:blank
''(iii) Built-in Firefox home page''
about:home
''(iv) Any other page''

When I choose to open a new tab from a website, such as facebook, it always opens it in a new window. How do I change this to just opening a new tab. I tried changing the tab settings but it did not work. I did not have the problem until I started using firefox 4.
It is probably a JavaScript link.
You can probably force it where you want it with a keyboard shortcut
either "Ctrl+click" or "Ctrl+Shift+click". see
* Firefox and other Browser Keyboard Shortcuts (Comparison Table)<br>http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/keyboard.htm
''Did that work?''
Some styles that provide a warning as to the type of link:
* No Follow links, mouseover id of other links - userstyles.org<br>http://userstyles.org/styles/10987
* Change cursor on some links with JS. - userstyles.org<br>http://userstyles.org/styles/233

Sometimes when I open a link in a new tab and then switch to the tab, the address bar clears and I'll have to re open the tab and hope that doesn't happen again. Sometimes this happens again and again. Most of the times if I just open the link in a new tab and don't switch to it, this won't happen. But as I switch too the tab, the text would disappear and the link wouldn't open.
