Firefox won't let me click on a tab to open a new blank tab

Whenever i click on the last tab to open a new empty blank tab nothing happens. i downloaded the new firefox that didnt help restarted that didnt help.

Can't you use the [+] button on the Tab bar to open a new Tab? <br />
Right-click on any Tab and select New Tab? <br />
Or, you can double-click on a blank spot on the Tab bar, if you don't have many Tabs open.
If something has changed recently and you lost a feature that you once had, you need to do a little troubleshooting. <br />
Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

  • Firefox will not let me click on some tabs and will not let me scroll up on right side of screen

    all of the sudden tonight firefox will not let me "click" to open tabs. also will not let me scroll the screen up on right side of screen. can scroll down, but not up.

    This issue can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar extension
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration 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.

  • Sometimes firefox won't open and I have to 'end process', and others it won't let me search in the searchbar, or open a new window. What's going on?

    Sometimes when I close firefox, it won't open again. I have to 'end process'. Other times it will not open a new window until I 'end process'. Sometimes it even won't let me use the search bar until I 'end process'.

    Do you have Restrictions turned on in Settings>General?

  • Firefox won't let me enable the setting to re-open my last session from ethere hostory or the main settings how can i fix??

    i got to the menu-settings-geniral-i only have use home page or a blank page it will not allow me to select in-order to re-store my last session and same in the history menu it wont allow me to click on it!

    This is not a reply. I just want to elaborate on this problem.
    My computer freezes occasionally when it is used after being sleep for a while. The spinning ball appears and everything is totally disabled. Nothing on the keyboard works.
    The mouse moves, but does not work.
    The only solution is to turn the power off and on (losing all data in open applications.)
    I kept the System monitor running on the side to find out which program was running when the computer froze. The Monitor as well as all other applications froze, but the data showed:
    Firefox 18.4%
    Activity Monitor 0.9%
    Firefox Plugin 0.2%
    This is all the information I have. By the way, I am using iMac with OS 10.6.

  • Firefox won't let me use any of the links-I can't add new links by clicking on the + box. I can't delete or add links. I can't even open one of the links at the top of this page Thanks

    Firefox won't let me use any of the links-I can't add new links by clicking on the + box. I can't delete or add links. I can't even open one of the links at the top of this page

    I'm not sure what you mean by "the + box". Is that a feature on one of your toolbars?

  • Firefox won't let me attach my Microsoft Office to my hotmail email account!

    '''Firefox won’t let me attach my Microsoft Office document to my hotmail email account!'''

    You are in the right area, this is the support forum.
    You should not make the profile read only, that will cause problems, for instance you will not be able to change settings or add bookmarks.
    Before you go any further try to make a copy of the current profile including the sub folders and files, and any accessible previous profile. (For instance are you using a disk image of the hdd prior to it being wiped, does that have the old profile on it) this suggestion is made because some of that information is likely to be useful, but is being put at risk of being deleted or overwritten.
    Have a look at
    *[[preferences are not saved]]
    * and [[backing up your information]]
    A potential problem is that you may have tried to restore from a Windows backup, they do not always work, and may need another clean re-install, but note do NOT delete the profile it is the program files that may need deleting.
    Try the following in this order, testing after each stage
    # return the profile settings to their standard privileges
    # use firefox in [[safe mode]]<br/> no need to make changes in the options dialogue window, just click on continue
    # try a new profile
    #* see [[Basic Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile]]_8-make-a-new-profile
    # back up your profiles (see above) then try a clean reinstall http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Clean_reinstall

  • Firefox won't let priting window to open, switch to safari ,printer works,

    firefox won't let prints , no window, or messgae for printing comes up,,tried system preference..no luck,, so i switched to safari,, now prints out. so i know printer works,

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
    If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
    You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.<br />

  • Windows 7 won't let me click on start orb or within open windows.

    I'm not sure how to accurately describe the symptoms. My system is having a problem where it won't let me click on things or move windows around. I can always move the cursor/arrow around the screen, and I can almost always click on desktop items to open files and programs. The most frequent symptom is that I can't click on the Start button or other items in the quick launch bar or notification area. Sometimes I can't even move the arrow into the bottom portion of the screen with these items. And frequently I can't click on any options within a window or even the shutdown options on the log-in screen. On some occasions, I can't click on the "Next" button on a dialog window that opens when booting from the Windows Repair/Recovery DVD.
    My PC an unmodified HP p6330f:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docnam​e=c01969881
    1. Restarting the computer will sometimes fix the problem, but usually only after multiple restarts.
    2. I ran the memtest86+ for 20 passes with no errors
    3. I ran WD's dlgdiag5.exe extended test on the HD with no errors
    4. I reinstalled the whole operating system, and then things seemed to work well for a somewhat longer period only for the problem to return again (maybe after all the latest updates?), then go away, and then come back again.
    5. In an attempt to start completely fresh, I erased my whole drive with zeros and attempted to do a completely clean re-install. The installation boot takes me to the "Install Windows" window (which asks about language and keyboard), but the bar across the top flashed blue/grey, then stayed grey, and I cannot select "Next."

  • Firefox won't let me open more than one window at a time. how do i fix the problem

    Firefox won't let me open more than one window at a time. It use to allow me to open multiple windows before but for no apparent reason it stopped. I uninstalled it and re-installed but I'm having the same problem. How do I fix the problem
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == several days ago

    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).
    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.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

  • My iPod touch 4G 8GB, lets me download apps on iTunes, but when I go to my iPod, and then apps, the entire selection is grey and won't let me click my new apps to add to my iPod. What can I do?

    My iPod touch 4G 8GB, lets me download apps on iTunes, but when I go to my iPod, and then apps, the entire selection is grey and won't let me click my new apps to add to my iPod. Usually I just restore my ipod and re-download everything, but thats time consuming, and after I unplug my ipod from the cord connected to my computer, I can replug it right after and this will pop up again. I'm getting tired of doing this.
    Like I said, it will let me download the apps off iTune, just when I come to my apps page on my ipod, it won't let me add it to my iPod. I can't download it straight from my ipod either, but iTunes doesn't work on my ipod, and when I update my apps, when they're in waiting they never move. What can I do?

    I would say that you are not connected to the iTunes library you last synced with. You can only sync with one iTunes library. If you connect the iPod to another computer/another iTunes library then you get what you see.
    You can only manually manage music and videos among different libraries, not apps.

  • My search media bar brings up the stuff I want when I search for it but won't let me click on the results for anything.

    Hi guys, I've been having troubles with my search bar for searching media in itunes. It worked a while ago but now when I search it brings up results and the results I want but it won't let me click them for anything. I can't go to the song, album or artist or add it to the song queue. It's really annoying to go through my library and search for a specific song without using the search. Please Help!
    Thank You!

    you said you turned your phone off. was it a reboot, or an off? Ive noticed that if the memory is low and you have
    a lot of apps or processes running, it really causes the system lag. Try holding down the top button and home button at the same time. Then wait until it has powered down. In 60 sec or so, restart it the same way. Should fix your issue. There is an app I use called Lite Scan. It allows me to see what is running and it will free up 30mg at a time. Not much granted but enuf to keep the system from going to a crawl.
    as far as your device in itunes goes, open itunes, without your phone connected. look in the advance settings and make sure everything is as it should be. Back up your data and try again. good luck

  • If I post a Word document on my website, I want to share the link. Firefox won't let me do that. It forces me to download the document. It won't go to the link. How can I get it to do that? Can I?

    My question was already detailed: If I post a Word document on my website, I want to share the link. Firefox won't let me do that. It forces me to download the document. It won't go to the link. How can I get it to do that? Can I?
    Here's an example. I want Firefox to go to this link:
    http://www.therevdrcharleswallen.com/CV2008.doc
    It won't. Explorer will go there, but Firefox won't. I don't want to open an extra document. I want to visit the site in my browser.

    Firefox can't handle MS Office documents and you will have to open such a file in an external Office program of viewer.

  • Firefox won't let me upload files to nearly any Web site, so how can I fix this issue?

    Whether it is gmail, Facebook, or more specifically this site (http://www.carnivalentertainment.com/index.htm), Firefox won't let me upload any type of file. Of course, if the Web site offers a standard uploader then I have a better chance of having a successful upload, but if it is not offered, then I am basically out of luck.
