Firefox jumps from tab group to tab group when tab is closed. Why? It should stay in the same tab group.

Firefox jumps from tab group to tab group when tab is closed. Why? It should stay in the same tab group.
Is it bug? In any case it is very inconvenient.

Ahh. Thanks. That seems like a bit of a hassle though. If I were to create more tabs in the group, would I have to re-bookmark all the tabs?
I would really love it if I could just pull them in and out of the tab group screen :)
Thanks for your help!

  • When I search for something, firefox opens a new tab with the results. How can I change the settings to where it will all stay in the same tab?

    When I search something Firefox automatically opens a new tab with the results of this search. How do I change the settings to where the results will appear in the same tab as where I conducted the search?

    Whether to open search results in new window most often is a setting of the search engine you are using.

  • Why does Firefox switch focus to an immediately adjacent tab (in a series of tabs) on middle-clicking a link instead of staying on the same tab? (with setting of NOT switching to new tab).

    I have usually 4 tabs open by default. If, for example, I'm in the first tab and middle-click a link to open a new tab, the tab opens but firefox focuses on the tab immediately adjacent to the tab I'm on (in this case, from tab 1 to tab 2 instead of staying on tab 1 whilst tab 5 is loading). The pattern repeats if I'm on tab x and open a new tab from tab x, but focus shifts to tab (x+1) instead of staying on tab x.
    It happens more often than not, i.e. it sometimes stops but usually happens.
    I have this setup for a year now and this is the first time this is happening. I believe since this latest update of 3.6.13.

    This issue can be caused by an extension or plugin that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the 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]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all 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")

  • I want Firefox to stay on the SAME tab instead of going to the FIRST tab after saving a page

    Several months ago FireFox (7) started going to the FIRST tab after saving and other actions.
    This is extremely irritating as I usually have several windows with numerous tabs open and its very time consuming to find the tab I was on.
    In fact, I have to open tabs in a new window prior to saving the page if I need info on that page for the file name as it's impossible to go anywhere but the first tab while at the prompt for the page name.
    I hope it's not supposed to do that and greatly appreciate help to fix this.
    Thanks, Christine

    The photo app puts files in date/time order and ignores their names.
    You can look for another app that may honor file names (sorry, I don't know any to recommend) or you can find a program that alters your file properties. If all the files have properties that read the same date and time, then it defaults to alphabetical order

  • When I'm on my forum and click the banner to go back to the home page, it opens up a new tab of the home page instead of staying in the same tab; how do I fix this? :S

    http://www.sbcforums.com/forums/
    It's EXTREMELY annoying. >.>

    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of instability and poor performance. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions -- they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
    Reboot as usual (not in safe mode) if you haven't already done so. Launch the Terminal application, copy or drag -- do not type -- the line of text below into the window, and press return:
    kextstat -kl | awk ' !/apple/ { print $6 $7 } '
    Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.)
    Next, do the same thing with this line:
    sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|com\.vix|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
    That's one line, not two. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
    Next, this command:
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
    Again, one line. Finally, one more:
    ls -1A {,/}Library/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,La,Mail/B,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Se,Sta}* 2> /dev/null
    Remember, this is all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer -- no typing, except your password.
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • How do I turn off tab groups?It forces the same tabs to reopen in next session

    I upgraded to 6.0.1 and experimented with the tab groups. Now I cannot turn it off. It seems to force the same tabs to be opened with the next session. I had (and still have) the warn me when I close multiple tabs. It overrides that option if I click the close the window. It just closes the firefox window and reopens all the tabs with the next session. This nullifies the best feature that firefox had over chrome.
    Please help me to get my old Firefox back...

    I'm with you permazorch...
    I like them. I want them to stay attached and open all of them when I open FF.
    I just wish there was a way to lock them at a particular point.
    Occasionally, I mistakenly close a batch of tabs from my second screen... when I close my primary screen, it forgets the second screen tabs, and I have to reopen and regroup the tabs I closed by mistake when I re-open FF...
    I love tabs and wish there was a way to keep them in spite of the fact that I might occasionally close them in the wrong sequence by mistake from time to time ...
    Any recommendations for locking the tab groups once configured?
    Until that time ... Earl J.

  • Firefox keeps opening the same tabs on startup instead of the ones from last session

    OS is winxp and firefox 3.6.8. This has been fine for a number of months. When closing FF it asks to save tabs and settings and I ok it. But it keeps opeing the same tabs from a week ago.
    Can you help?

    A couple of things to check.
    Check to see if Firefox is set to open to your home page, if so have the sites that open been set as the home page. Those settings are on the [[Options window - General panel]].
    Another possible cause is the file that stores details of sessions may be corrupt. You can delete the files that have details of sessions to see if that helps. Firstly you need to access your profile folder, for details of how to do that see the [[profiles]] article. Once you are in your profile folder, close Firefox and delete ''sessionstore.js'' and ''sessionstore.bak'' (the second file may not exist)

  • Firefox keeps saving my tabs from several months ago - the same tabs! Even though I close them, the next time I restart, there they are. I was using a previous version of FF, now upgraded to 6 and same thing is happening.

    Firefox keeps saving my tabs from several months ago - the same tabs! Even though I close them, the next time I restart, there they are. I was using a previous version of FF, now upgraded to 6 and same thing is happening.

    Thanks for the reply. I never get the option to "Restore Previous History" from History. I don't even have the box checked that asks to delete the history when Firefox closes. I don't know what's wrong, no matter what, I always lose everything. I have the box marked "Show my windows and tabs from last time" for when I open Firefox, but it never shows that, just my homepage. Also, when I check my History, it only shows the pages that I opened since I started Firefox, nothing from before. Even if I were to open up 10 pages now, close Firefox, and open it, the history would only show the homepage that opened this time, not any of the 10 pages that I opened 5 minutes ago.

  • Firefox opens Google link in the same tab (the way I like it), but I can't figure how to keep that and still have YouTube windows pop-up in a new tab. Help?

    Hello, here is my problem: reading your mozilla support, I learned how to make Firefox open links in Google results in the same tab, that's the way I like it, but I still like to have my YouTube windows pop-up in a new tab (I participate in one forum, when I come to the YouTube window in some topic, I usually click on a small right-down button "watch on YouTube", and that always opens video it in a new tab; all until latest few updates of Firefox). Can this issue be corrected in about:config feature, and how? Sorry if my English isn't so glorious.
    Thanks a lot for answering, and best regards...

    Hello. I have just tried this add-on you suggested, and no change.
    And no, there was no some other add-on before, not that I know about it. Mainly, I need this option while I'm on a forum (IP board powered), it is not really something so important, but it's neat function for me.
    So, to be more detailed - I read a certain topic on this forum, and some of the posts from other members contain YouTube screens (looking same as on the original YouTube page), showing the frame of a video.
    In earlier versions of Firefox, I used to click on a small YouTube logo button (right side, down, between "watch on full screen" and "watch later" buttons). Clicking on this button automatically opened new tab, leaving forum tab as it is, and in new tab original YouTube page, with that certain video. In the same time, in Google search page, when clicking on a link, all links were opening in the same tab.
    Now, after some of the latest updates of Firefox, I noticed that some default settings were changed - in Google search, clicking on a link always opens a link in a new tab. I have found out here on your forum how to set this back in about:config feature, and now I have again that links in a Google results page are opened in the same tab (that's the way I like it).
    But YouTube screens on this forum are now also being opened in the same tab, and that is what I don't like, and trying to change back.
    So, what I need: all links to open in the same tab after clicking, as I have it now, and YouTube screens (e. g. on this forum) to be opened in a new tab (by clicking on a small YouTube logo ("watch this video on YouTube").
    Pedantic I am, I know that, and I know that this may look silly to some people, but if there is a way to do something, please tell me.
    Thanks for answering, and best regards.
    P.S.
    Is it possible that forum updates changed my setting, and not the Firefox? Thanks again...

  • Monitoring servers in SCOM 2012 via different locals within the same management group

    Hi,
    I have 2 management servers in a same management group. The 1st one is having English (US) locale while other is installed on Swedish locale. Both are accessed by different users having same admin rights.
    Once a USER 1 try to register a server through authoring tab from 1st management server(installed on English locale), a profile/group wrt the server registered is created successfully but the USER on 2nd management server (installed on Swedish locale) can
    not see the same in Authoring tab. He can view it in Monitoring tab as as well as Administration tab.
    The Vice versa is also true.
    Does any one have idea that is it SCOM 2012's expected behaviour wrt 2 2 different users on 2 different locales within a same management group ?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I am a little confused, what do you mean by "register a server through authoring tab"?
    Do you mean that when you discover a server on 1st MS with discovery wizard then you cannot see it on 2nd MS(and the vice versa)?
    As far as I know, all those information should be stored in the operation database which is shared to both MSs within the same management group.
    We may use SQL query to find the discovered server on the operation database. Please also check operation manager event logs to get more information to troubleshoot this issue.

    Yan Li

  • Everytime i click on a link in my email in opens in the same tab, before the update it would open in a seperate tab like i wanted it to. Can someone please help

    for instance when i get an email from amazon regarding a special sale, i open the email in outlook and when i would click on a picture or a link it would would automatically open in another tab and allow me to check the rest of my emails in my current tab, now however it opens in the same tab as outlook it doesnt switch almost like when you are searching something on google and the link you choose loads in the same tab which is fine, but this is not, i dont want to have to press the back button to get back into my logged account!!

    I don't have that problem in Firefox 29 when I read Gmail or AOL (aim''.''com) webmail. When I click on a webpage link in an email I'm reading (example: http://www.tworivertheater.org/ ) the link opens in a separate Firefox tab.
    Are you saying this doesn't happen in outlook''.''com webmail and the link opens in the same Firefox tab as the email itself? I don't use outlook''.''com webmail myself. Hopefully someone will be along who does, or see [[Problems with email and how to find help]].
    It might help if you would confirm the type of link that is opening in the same tab as the email you are reading in your outlook webmail. If I misunderstood your problem, please explain it better.
    It might also help if you could furhish more troubleshooting information. Please do the following:
    *'''For Firefox 29.0 and above''': Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Troubleshooting Information''.
    Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
    *At the top of the page, you should see a button that says "Copy text to clipboard". Click it.
    *Now, go back to your forum post and click inside the reply box. Press Ctrl+V to paste all the information you copied into the forum post.
    If you need further information about the Troubleshooting information page, please read the article [[Use the Troubleshooting Information page to help fix Firefox issues]].

  • When i highlight a word, right click and select "search google for "x"" how do i not get directly into the new tab? i want to stay in the old tab

    i want to stay in the current tab and go to the new ones by myself later.

    * '''Ctrl+C''' to copy selected text to clipboard.
    * '''Ctrl+T''' to open a new tab.
    * If focus is not automatically set on the address bar, press '''Alt+D to''' set focus on the address bar OR '''Ctrl+E''' to set focus to the search box.
    * '''Ctrl+V''' to paste text from the clipboard.
    * Smack '''ENTER''' to jump right into a google search if your browser is configured to search through google from those boxes (which it probably is by default).
    * '''Ctrl+Shift+Tab''' to jump backwards through tabs.
    Much, much, much quicker then going through the rigmarole point-click-point-click.
