How can I change the default url each time I open a new tab?

New tabs used to open up with the same home page I use when I open firefox but now all tabs open up with something different and I can't find where to change that.

New tabs in Firefox have always been a blank page by default, but there are many different add-ons that can change that action to a specific web page.
This is probably the simplest add0on to do that, but first you need to figure which add-0n changed it from a blank page and get rid of that add-on. <br />

  • How can I change the default URL in hyperlink inspector

    How can I change the default URL for link to external page in the Hyperlink Inspector?

    You can't change the default url in the inspector.. but an easier way to do it rather than editing the box everytime you need to build a link is to copy the url you want to link to and then highlight the text or image that users will click on and then click enable hyperlink.. when you do that whatever the last url you copied using "command" "C" will automatically be entered into that box and replace "livepage.apple.com"
    It saves alot of time if you are doing alot of links.
    Hope This Helps!

  • How do I change the page it goes to win opening a new tab?

    Okay. So I recently downloaded something that made my new tab into a Bing thing. That's not very descriptive, so... Basically when I used to open a tab, it would just be a blank, white page. But after downloading Gimp 2, an editing software, it also downloaded a Bing search thing every time I open a new tab, even when I clicked for it not to do that. So how do I get my new tab back to being just a blank page?

  • How do I edit the default page for when I open a new tab?

    I'd like to know how to set which page appears when I open a new tab. I've already set my home page to what I'd like, but I'm having trouble setting which page appears once I open new tabs while I'm already online.

    You can do that by using an add-on such as:
    * NewTabURL - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl
    * New Tab Homepage - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage
    Another way of opening the home page in a new tab is to middle click on the home button in the navigation toolbar.

  • How can I change my settings so that when I open a new tab, it opens a designated home page instead of a blank 'Untitled' page?

    I want to be able to set my Firefox tabs so that when I open a new tab, it displays my home page. Right now, when I open a new tab, I get a blank page that's just 'Untitled'.

    You can look at one of these extensions:
    * NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    * New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

  • How can I change the fact that every time I open firefox, I get redirected to a website promising a free ibook?

    OK. So in October I made the mistake of opening a website offering a free iBook (I'm really not gullible; I thought I could figure out who was sending it too me). Ever since then, I cannot open a new Firefox session without being redirected to the site (If I open up more than one webpage and save them before closing, I don't get redirected to the ibook site).
    I actually keep my web-surfing software on thumb drives, and I tried two different thumb drives doesn't matter. I purchased and ran an anti-virus program. No dice. Can you help me?
    I have a MacBook, which runs on system OSX 10.5.8

    Hi revbennyd,
    So it sounds like your home page has been hijacked? You should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]].
    There are steps in that article to reset your homepage preferences to default. I would try that first to clear out any strangeness. If that works, you can try setting your homepage again to your personal preference.
    If that doesn't work you should look at the article [[Preferences are not saved]].
    Finally, your issue may be because you've been hit with some [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Is%20my%20Firefox%20problem%20a%20result%20of%20malware?s=malware&r=0&e=sph&as=s#w_how-do-i-get-rid-of-malware Malware].
    Hopefully this helps!

  • How can I eliminate the constant attempt of add-ons opening in new tabs and tabs redirecting everytime I open a page or website that I DO want??

    No matter what page or website I am on, as soon as I go to another website or want to open a page of my choosing, multiple unwanted pages try to open wanting me to add on, install, etc. or additionally, get tabs opening that say redirected. Result is that the whole time I spend on the net, I keep having to close 2 or 3 tabs of wanted pages constantly trying to open before I can stay on the one I actually want.
    In addition, is there any way to modify or eliminate the constant popups opening on the sides, the bottom, and tops of pages...all over the place, while I'm trying to view a page. I spend more time trying to close all that junk before I can read something and then it even comes back and I have to do the same thing again.?????????
    please HELP!!!!!!

    Sounds like you have have inadvertently picked up a dose of Malware.
    Sometimes a perceived problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
    * [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]
    * [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]

    * [http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ESET Online Scanner]
    [http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
    Further information can be found in the [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]] article.

  • How do I change the search engine that displays when opening a new tab-Bing comes up and I want Google.

    I'm using Firefox 15 on a Mac and there don't seem to be any extensions affecting this. Thanks!

    Is that about searching via the build-in the about:home page?
    Reset the <b>browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone</b> pref via the right-click context menu to the default on the <b>about:config</b> page and close and restart Firefox to restore the about:home page to its default.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    #Open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar
    #Type in the Filter bar: mstone
    #Right-click the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone line and select: Reset
    #Close and restart Firefox
    If this didn't help then delete the delete the chromeappsstore.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder and repeat the above.

  • How can I change the default templates to from A4 to Letter US?

    Hi,
    I live in Québec, the french part of Canada. Because I use French, iWork think I leave in France, so the default templates are in A4.
    How can I change the default templates to from A4 to Letter US? It seem's impossible. In Pages 06, each language folder had templates. But with Pages 08, it's different.
    Please help.

    Autre façon : Ouvre un nouveau document. Il va être en A4. Dans le menu Fichier--->Format d'impression. Une fenêtre apparaît. Dans la ligne... Taille du papier, tu choisis... Lettre US; tu fais OK. Ensuite tu sauves ce document comme modèle. Menu Fichier----> Enregistrer comme modèle et tu lui donnes le nom, par exemple... USLettre.
    Ensuite, va dans le menu Pages, va dans préférences et dans la fenêtre qui s'ouvre - Préférences générales - tu choisis : Utiliser le modèle... et tu cliques sur Choisir... à droite un peu en bas de Utiliser le.... et là, dans la fenêtre qui va apparaître, tu trouves le modèle que tu viens de faire...USLettre.
    Voilà. Chaque fois que tu vas ouvrir Pages, ce sera USLettre qui sera là par défaut.
    J'espère que ça va te satisfaire.
    Évidemment l'idéal serait de pouvoir changer la template Vierge par une template Vierge US... mais j'ai pas encore réussi.

  • How can i change the default text "Query by Example"

    how can i change the default text *"Query by Example"* in a Panel Collection
    Thx

    Hi thieto,
    The label you are looking for is af_panelCollection.LABEL_MENUITEM_QBE*
    I'm currently writing a blogpost on this issue. In short, you will have to create a skin resource bundle.
    In the skin definition, refer to this bundle class.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
    <skins xmlns="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/skin">
      <skin>
        <id>mySkin.desktop</id>
        <family>MySkin</family>
        <extends>blafplus-rich.desktop</extends>
        <render-kit-id>org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.desktop</render-kit-id>
        <style-sheet-name>skins/MySkin.css</style-sheet-name>
        <bundle-name>com.blogspot.lucbors.view.bundles.MySkinBundle </bundle-name>
      </skin>
    </skins>In this class, adjust the label text to your needs.
    package com.blogspot.lucbors.view.bundles;
    import java.util.ListResourceBundle;
    public class MySkinBundle extends ListResourceBundle {
      public MySkinBundle() {
        super();
    @Override
      public Object[][] getContents() {
        return _CONTENTS;
    static private final Object[][] _CONTENTS = {
         {"af_panelCollection.LABEL_MENUITEM_QBE","the text that you want"}
    }More in the blogpost
    Good luck

  • How can I change the default start up folder to be d:\work\ ?

    How can I change the default start up folder to be d:\work\ ?
    It seems to be going to one default folder every time I open that I didn't suggest.
    I'm using Bridge CS4
    Thanks ahead
    Line

    If the program does not open the last folder you visited you most likely have the option enabled to autoload Bridge on Startup.  Either disable that option  in PS or shut Bridge down before you shut off the computer.
    Message was edited by: curt y
    If you always want it to start on a specific folder you can leave it on autoload, go to folder you want it to start on then exit Bridge.  It should load this each time in future.  Many of us discourage the autoload option as it can lead to other problems as well.

    For sideloaded content the nook pulls the metadata from ePub file itself.  I would suggest looking at a program like Sigil or Calibre that will let you edit the metadata in the book to make it appear like you want.
    For the PDF vs ePub - No, that's the way PDFs work (think of them as graphics, not text), wheres ePubs are Web Pages - so  no you can't them to behave exactly alike without converting the files.
