How can I get any of the search requests to open in a new tab and not the current window. I have just downloaded the new FF8

In my previous version of FF, whenever I did a search with any search engine the results opened in a new tab. Now with FF8 the results open in the current window which really is inconvenient. How do I get the search results to open in a new tab instead?
I have Windows xp FF8

To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
*Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)
Use the Filter at the top of the page to locate this pref: browser.search.openintab
If the value of the browser.search.openintab pref is false then toggle the value to true with a double click on that line.

I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

Hi, I'm helping StringSinger2 with this problem.
The previously installed version is Pages 3.0.3 (the same as from iWork 08). This version (Pages 3.0.3/iWork 08) is incompatible with Pages 5.
That is why it would be helpful to install iWork 09, which is the version between the two. It will open the older 08 files, and its saved files are readable by the new Pages5.
SO...
When I try to install iWorks 09 from my retail DVD the error message is "the installer is damaged". (I know the dvd is good, I installed iWorks09 to my laptop today.) Is the "installer" part of the system files? And - If that is damaged is there a patch for that?
Many Thanks!

When I opened up a new tab, I used to get the Speed Dial page. I like that. However, since I updated my AVG anti-virus program, now when I open a new tab, I get the AVG search page. Can I change it back so that I get the Speed Dial?

In the past, when I opened up a new tab, I used to get the Speed Dial page. I like that. However, since I updated my AVG anti-virus program, now when I open a new tab, I get the AVG search page. Can I change it back so that I get the Speed Dial?

I had that too. On the bottom right of the AVG search page is a link which leads you to where you can switch it off. This restores normal Speed Dial operation.
This hijacking has really cheesed me off. I've just downloaded Avast and am going to put it on in place of AVG.

When I open up a new tab, how do I get rid of the default 'Bing' tab?

When I click on the + sign for a new tab, the Bing search engine comes up. How can I modify the tab content? I have tried 'Tools' and 'Tabs' option, but nothing works for me under there. My husband's Mozilla tabs comes up with multiple pages he has browsed in the past. I want this.... Thanks.

hello,
Lets try to change it to the way you want. follow the following steps:
Step 1: enter about:config on the address bar. Hit Enter.
https://support.cdn.mozilla.net/media/uploads/images/2014-12-31-20-40-43-72e926.png
Step 2: On the preferences window search for browser.newtab.url. You will see only one option for the result.
https://support.cdn.mozilla.net/media/uploads/images/2014-12-31-20-40-59-3aca0a.png
Step 3: Double click on it and enter the URL of the site that you prefer to open with every new tab page. For example, In the image it is set to Guiding Tech.
https://support.cdn.mozilla.net/media/uploads/images/2014-12-31-20-41-10-22b9de.png
To use the home page as new tab page set the values to about:home. For a blank new tab set it to about:blank..'''For making new tab perform as your husband's browser enter about:newtab in the URL of step 3.'''
Hope it helps.

In Firefox 4, how do I get back the context menu for the drop down list of the Location Bar so I can Open Link in New Tab, which I did often in FF 3?

Firefox 3 has a context menu for the drop down list of
the Location Bar. One option on this menu I used often
is "Open Link in New Tab" -- quite convenient.
This context menu has disappeared in Firefox 4.
Can I get it back?

The "Use custom settings for history" setting allows to see the current history and cookie settings, but selecting that setting doesn't make any changes to history and cookie settings. 
Firefox shows the "Use custom settings for history" setting as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made. 
If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".

Put back "Open Link in New Window" first and default, rather than "Open Link in New Tab" in Safari 6.1

I do not like the order of the context menu changes in Safari 6.1. I have become accustomed to using "Open Link In New Window" first in the context list, rather than the new "Open Link In New Tab". I do not wish to use Tabs. How may I remove this?

Well, I solved it just after I posted this. I opened up the Safari Preferences, then went to the TABS section, and set "Open pages in tabs instead of windows: to NEVER", and unchecked "⌘-click opens a link in a new tab". That set it back to open in new windows.
Tabs work if I am making quick tabs to refer to something. Horrible if I want to compare two websites side by side. So, by disabling the auto TAB function, I'm back to the way I prefer my browser to work, rather than the way something thinks I ought to use it.
Don't care about having all my browsers behavior the same. If I wanted that, I would have run those browsers.

When I open up a new tab, I get an "AVG" search result. I already did the about:config reset but it still doesn't work. How can I get a blank tab opened?

When I open a new tab, this always comes up:
http://isearch.avg.com/tab?cid={7d7746b8-fb39-4619-86fd-792cbc268005}&mid=72dc207d310ff3c58bd4dbeaeddede3a-fe6a71ecae4eb764a90a5203c991f01a6245f52e&ds=AVG&v=13.2.0.5&lang=es-es&pr=fr&d=2012-06-02%2009%3A32%3A49&sap=nt
I already did the about:config reset and it doesn't make the new tab blank or go to a specific URL address that I type in. What can I do to get a blank new tab? Thanks.

I would just like to add to this thread. I have tried everything and every way listed here and found my own solution, for those of you who were having the same issue as me.
1. Type "'''about:config'''" in your search bar
2. Click "'''I'll be careful, i promise'''"
3. Type "'''newtab'''" in the search bar
4. Find "'''avg.userPreferences.newtabDisabledByUser'''"
5. Set value to '''true''' by either '''doube clicking''' or '''right click > toggle'''
This immediately deactivated the AVG new tab feature and reset my browser to it's default settings.
Hope this helps!

When I open up a new tab on firefox, the bar shows that the tab is there, but when I click on it, it is the same page as what I have before. When I try to change the page on the "new tab" the original tab changes. Why does this happen and how do I fix it?

This problem is even occuring as I type this information. I tried to click a "show details" button and it didn't work. The tab "opened" but I couldn't get the page to switch to the tab after clicking on it.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions 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.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
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")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in [[Safe mode]]:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

Clicking a search result from search bar goole seaech, always opening google home page but only can open search in new tab by middle click,really frustrating.

Whenever i am clicking search result from Google search bar, it always opens the Google home page. I can only open search result in new tab by double clicking. It started when i installed Firefox 12.

@mstm, please ensure that you write some thing in search bar before you click search icon. without entering anything will redirect to google.com. And make sure that you are clicking on search icon not home icon.
