How do I get a favorite or bookmark to open in a new tab automatically, not in the one I am working in? The tab options/settings are unhelpful.

I have 2 laptops. Both have Firefox as my number one preference.
One computer, is set up correctly, If I am on a site, tap on a bookmark site, it will open in a new tab and not interfere with my current tab. It's wonderful.
The other Firefox, if I click a bookmark it will open in the CURRENT tab, changing the tab to the selected bookmark.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled FF, but that did not correct the issue. I have read the tab options and help desk, but that doesnt help either.
ANY HELP? :)

There is no built-in setting for redirecting a bookmark to a new tab.
Is it possible that the computer which does that has an add-on such as the Tab Mix Plus extension installed? TMP has a setting for that (Events > Tab Opening).

How can I get my REPLY or COMPOSE to open in a new tab? (Open messages already open in a new tab.)

I did see that others have this problem and you answered that it's not possible. Can you create an update that will allow this? If not, is there a workaround? When composing or replying to an email, we often need to consult other email or the Thunderbird calendar, and this is annoyingly difficult at the moment, but would be very easy if there was an option to "compose" or "reply" in another tab!

As far as I know, compose always opens in a new window. I have never seen any way to change that (nor would I want to).

How do I get Google search bar results to open in a new tab instead of the current tab?

When I use the Google search box, I would like the search results to open in a new tab instead of the current tab.

It turns out there is an about:config setting just for this purpose. Toggle browser.search.openintab to 'true', and all is well.

You have Repeat turned on. While playing music, tap the screen so that you see the scrubber bar showing the time. See that icon on the left side? That's Repeat. Tap it until it is white to turn it OFF.

How do i get my old password back.. my grandson changed it and does not remember the numbers he used?

My grandson changed my password to get onto my ipod and cannot remember the number he put in. how do i open it and change back to original password (4 numbers) thankyou in advance.

You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it. If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.
