How can I middle-click a link and have a tab open next to the parent?

Ctrl-T opens a new, blank tab at the end of my tab list, which I like. In IE 11 middle-clicking on a link in a web page opens that new progeny tab next to the parent tab, rather than at the end of the list, and groups them if you have more than one parent-and-progeny tab groups. IE 11 goes so far as to assign tab title background colors to such groups (which isn't as important to me as the functionality). Tweaking Tab Mix Plus just resulted in modifying where Ctrl-T puts a blank tab. Is there a way to make my FF parent-progeny tabs work like IE 11?

If you use Tab Mix Plus then you need to check its settings where links are opened.
The basic Firefox has these prefs to control this feature.
*browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent
*browser.tabs.selectOwnerOnClose
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.

  • How can I fix Firefox crashing whenever I have many tabs open?

    I will try to keep this short. I used to be a long time Firefox user...like since it was first released. I have always had issues with it crashing when having many tabs open. I couldn't take it anymore and jumped ship. After a brief period using Chrome I decided to install version 31 and try it out again.
    I still have the same exact issues. The issue has persisted across multiple computer builds with increasing power and memory.
    Currently I am running an i7 4770k with 32GB of RAM and a GTX 770, SSDs, etc. I just installed Firefox yesterday after getting fed up with Chrome and some of its issues. Firefox has crashed about 6-10 times since then.
    I am a heavy browser. I normally build up tons of open tabs, upwards of 100+ open tabs at once (maybe more, I've never counted). I understand that this can use a lot of memory, but I have a ton of memory. My system utilization does not go above 30% ever, yet Firefox consistently crashes. I'm actually a bit surprised, it seems worse now than it ever has in the past. It crashes, I restore, and it will crash again within 5 minutes. I have no add-ons installed. I had Ad Block Plus installed briefly but I uninstalled that once these crashes started.
    This is Firefox, no add-ons no extras, nothing else to alter its performance. It crashes constantly. This may just be the final attempt before I go searching elsewhere.

    I tried to do as you instructed but I don't see any of my recent crashes in there. There are some older ones I see, perhaps from a previous install? There is nothing for the crashes I've had the past day or two. I don't normally submit crash reports though anymore. I can try to recreate the problem and submit one soon if that helps?

  • How can I delete apps in iTunes and have that sync to my iPhone and iPad?

    How can I delete apps in iTunes and have that sync to my iPhone and iPad? I don't want to delete 3 separate times for each item. I just carefully chose 30-35 apps to get rid of via iTunes, hoping it would sync to my devices, only to find I have to repeat the process on my iPad, take notes, then repeat it on my iPhone. It wasn't always so tedious was it?
    Here's the "Help" I got from Apple. They even quoted my question back to me then proceeded to answer with something very different and completely missing the point.
    I understand that you would like to delete the Apps. I know how eager you are to get the required information and I will be happy to assist you.
    You can remove individual songs, audiobooks, and videos from your iPod, iPhone, or iPad. Removing an item from your device doesn't delete it from your iTunes library.
    To remove items from a device other than an iPod shuffle, first make sure that iTunes is set up to manually manage items.
    1. Connect your iPod, iPhone, or iPad to your computer.
    2. When the iPod, iPhone, or iPad icon appears in iTunes, select it.
    3. Unless your device is an iPod shuffle, click the Summary tab and make sure "Manually manage music and videos" or "Manually manage music" is selected.
    4. If the disclosure triangle to the left of your iPod, iPhone, or iPad (below Devices) is closed, click the triangle so that you can see the device's contents.
    5. Select the item you want to delete and press the Delete key.
    This was not helpful in any way and I am still unable to delete apps on my devices in a global, iTunes based way. Each device still requires its own independent process.

    Match was off.  I made all of the changes and then went through the "Turn on iTunes Match" option.  I now have deleted some tracks, edited the Metadata in CDDA, and then added it back.  This worked fine, but it is not a good solution.
    I just tried making some edits and use the "Update iTunes Match" and that seemed to work.  It looks like the real answer is that Match must be up and operational, then you can make changes and run the Update to incorporate the changes.  However, if Match has a problem then Signing Out and back in to your store account and going through the process of Turning On Match (were you get the questions, "Add this Computer to Match" will overwrite any changes. 
    Since this relies on the stability of iTunes, I won't be making a lot of changes between updates.

  • HT201150 How can I turn off this "feature" and have the power button bring me the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by default again?

    How can I turn off this "feature" and have the power button bring me the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by default again?
    With the position of the power button on the Retina MacBooks, any mistake turns off the screen in the middle of a presentation or any activity using a projector or big screen — a huge waste of time to wake up the display, enter password, have the projector sync back, watch audience disconnecting from what was being discussed, etc.
    This is very annoying, and seems to add to the increasing collection of options Apple decided to make by itself instead of allowing the user to choose.
    Come on Apple guys, I'm using my Mac because I want options and lots of preferences to tweak to my needs.
    If I needed the lobotomized version I'd be using my iPad!
    Any way (official or hack) to change this button back to its proper funcionality?
    Thanks!

    Not what you want, but you can get the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by holding the power button

  • How can i "add file to library" and have it be considered to be a Podcast?

    I went to a web site and downloaded a file to my C drive (MP3 format) that is not music. It is spoken, and is what i would call a 'Podcast', although i did not access it via iTunes as an official podcast. I then use iTunes "add file to library" function. But, it considers it to be music. I thought maybe drag/drop would work to let me add it to Podcasts, but it does not.
    How can i get this file which i have imported into iTunes to be treated as a Podcast? First, i'd like it to appear on my iPod with 'Podcasts'. But, more importantly, if i stop listening in the middle, i'd like it to restart from that point the next time i start it again. Now, it is treated by the iPod like music, and so it starts at the beginning each time.
    Thanks for your help! Tom.

    Is there a way that you can "subscribe" to something that is not in iTunes store? This is just a file on a site that is available for download.
    If not -- does anybody else know if there is a way to do what the original question posed, to have a file that you downloaded, treated as a Podcast instead of as music?
    Thanks, tom.

  • Version 10 doesn't work with a web site I use constantly. How can I download a lower version and have the app appear on my phone?

    Have been using a lower version of firefox on my samsung galaxy phone to access [email protected] for quite some time. Since the upgrade to 10.0, I receive a server error everytime I try to access. Want to download a lower version, but app doesn't appear on my phone. How can I download a lower version and get the app to show up on my phone?

    Mandel is referring to what is called a "User Agent Faker' which tricks the website into thinking it is a different browser or version than it actually is. I sometimes would use this on my iPhone when I wanted to visit the full website of a site I was attempting to go to & it would only take me to the mobile version or state it was only compatible with say Internet Explorer, simply turn it on & select the browser and details you want it to report and it will spoof that browser & you'll be on your way.

  • How can i delete messages on iMessage and have them STAY GONE?

    How can I delete messages from my iPhone and have them STAY GONE and not have them show up on my computer or iPad? Same thing, how can I delete from any of these and have them NOT show up on the other devices? If I delete on one, it stays on the other. It's a constant circle of deleting messages? I want them gone when deleted.  Maverick. iPad4th iPhone 5
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    First off.
    The "Sync" as Apple calls it is only "Display on all Devices" and nothing more.
    Deleting it on one device will not delete it on another.
    On the Mac the iMessages are stored in ~/Library/Messages in file called chat.db with a couple of supporting database items alongside.
    If you "close"  or remove the chat in the list in the Messages window (the x when you mouse over the name and pic) then the iMessage will "return" as an "Aid Memoire" to the previous conversation.
    This is local on your Mac and is nothing to do with any 'sync' over the iMessages servers.
    The longest time I have experienced was using my iPhone on a hotel WiFi on a Friday evening away form home and picking up those same iMessage on Sunday evening when I turned my Mac on.
    The iMessages servers "push" the iMessages to the devices it thinks are Registered.
    However this only happens once.  When the device has the iMessages the servers stop sending it.
    This is to stop what you seem to describe - the endless attempt to delete the same iMessages.
    It is more likely you are talking about the "history" feature.

  • How can I parse email activation link and do some action?

    I have som email activation link
    http://localhost:8085/application/activate.jsf?id=10&key=35435454654654654646
    I want when user clicked on this url ,
    automatically do action in bean and activate his account or not.
    I receive parameters key and id from requestParameterMap, but I do not want put on the page commandLink and do action after clicking on it.
    key = (String) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequestParameterMap().get("key");
        id = (String) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext()
                .getRequestParameterMap().get("id");
        How can I do this?
    I have some method activation () and I want run it after receiving key and uid ,
    May be I need phase listener? If yes, can you provide simple example.

    I'm afraid you'll have to use some kind of action listener; that's how jsf commandLink and commandButtons are design to work
    OR
    you could achieve your goal by writing a servlet mapped to the url . capture your request parameters and do the activation in your servlet.

  • How can i burn an ISO movie and have it watchable?

    Hello! I have a client who has a movie file as an .ISO for some reason. How can i turn that into a watchable format and put it on DVD? Thanks!

    An ISO file is basically just a disk image, so much depends on how it was encoded.
    What do you see when you double-click the file?
    If it is TS folder it will contain VOB files etc. These can be converted to a DV stream for iMovie using mpegStreamclip (just drop the entire folder into the Streamclip window and select what conversion you want):
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html
    which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
    which is a mere $20.
    Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:

    which costs $25.

  • I cleaned up several albums in iTunes only to have Match wipe all of my changes out.  How can I alter things in iTunes and have the changes stay?

    I signed up for Match but when I added new albums, they failed to appear.  Ultimately I got a message to Sign Out and then Sign In to the Apple Store tab under iTunes.  I then added the computer back to Match.  It went through the process and uploaded the new albums (or matched them) but it also reversed hours of work I had done it editing my library and cleaning up track lists and song titles.
    HOW CAN I edit/maintain my library without Match wiping every change out?????
    And when will the Cover Art issue be solved???

  • How can I transfer all my mail and mail boxes to another computer using the same Mac OS 10.7.5?

    I have 2 computers with the same OS 10.7.5. How can I transfer all my Mail & Mail boxes from one to the other?

    Hello Gene,
    It sounds like you would like to transfer your mail and mailboxes from one computer to another.  I recommend exporting the mailboxes from one Mac and then importing them to the destination Mac.  You can find steps in the following articles:

    It's not possible to charge your account for your gf SMS messages, but you might look into Skype Manager: https://support.skype.com/category/SM_GETTING_STAR​TED/
    Basically Skype Manager is an online tool which enables you to buy credit and allocate it to other Skype Manager members. It's mostly meant for business purpose, but for example I use it to manage my family accounts. I purchase Skype Credit and allocate it to my parents since they are not so tech savvy.

  • How can I book services in ical and have that booking generate an editable invoice in numbers

    I would like to book an appointment with billable services in ical and have that booking generate an invoice which I can edit in numbers. Possible? working on an ipad 4th generation.

    I would think with an Applescript  you could create duplicate of an invoice template which is saved in a specific file (and location) and a calendar entry with a shortcut to that new file.
    This would be something you, or someone else, would have to write, test and deploy.  It is not built into Numbers.
    You could do this manually by creating a template for your document.
    Each time you book an event you open the tamplate and save as the invoice number, then create a calendar event where you include the new invoice document as an attachment:
    Since you have posted in the forum for Numbers on Mac OS X you are getting people who mostly work in Numbers on a Mac (I am one of them).
    I will request your post be moved to the Numbers for iOS forum

  • When opening a new tab, how can I specify a site or empty? My tabs open to a site I don't want to see.

    When opening a new tab, how can I specify a site, homepage or empty? My new tabs open to a site I don't want to see.

    A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
    If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    You can middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
    You can look at this extension to set which page to open in a new tab:
