How can I make new tabs open on the right?

I have the New Tabs On The End add-on but it doesn't work anymore since I upgraded to FF 6. Is there any way to force Firefox to due this without an add-on?

The [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/ Tab Mix Plus] extension appears to have this feature, pictured in the screen shot here: http://tmp.garyr.net/help/#Events_-_New_Tabs

How do I make new tabs open to my specified home page instead of blank page?

How do I make new tabs open to my specified home page instead of blank page?

I generally like to avoid add-ons, and the second option is still an extra step - not opening tabs to the homepage, as requested (rather how to switch to your Home page after a tab opens to the blank page).
Here's a wild idea: How 'bout a setting option in Tools > Options > Tabs for "Always open new tabs to my Home page" ?

When a window is open and I try to go to a new bookmark or a link in an existing site, the new window opens behind the old window.

It isn't every time, and sometimes doesn't happen for a long time, then I'll go to a bookmark or toolbar link and the new window opens behind the one I was on. Example: I just opened a second window (CTRL N) and clicked on a bookmark. It opened a new window behind the one I'm on as I type this. I did the same steps again and it opened the new window in front of this one. It doesn't seem to make any difference which site I start from or go to or if I use CTRL N or let the bookmark do the opening.

This can happen if you have a tab open in the main browsing window that uses the plugin-container process (e.g. Flash).

How to make New Windows open where I want!

Every time I launch Safari, it opens the window on the left side of the screen. How to do get it to open on the right side? I'm sure there is a keystroke combination to reset the default position or AppleScript, but I can't find one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

I had the same problem way back. I finally gave up and now use the following applescript. Change the pixel coordinates of the top left and bottom right of the window, that appear in parentheses, to fit size of your screen. Mine is set for my 2x" early Cinema display.
javascript:self.moveTo(190,0);self.resizeTo(1150,995)
Make a bookmark put this script into the URL area of the bookmark (right side) and rename it to something like "my window size" and then put it in your bookmark bar folder. Then just click on it in the bookmark bar and window will move and resize to whatever you have entered in the parentheses.

How do i get the components when a new window opens from the main window?

In a given application, i am able to get the list of components for the main window. When an event happens in the main window, now a new window opens here how do i get the components for this newly opened window?

getContentPane().getComponents() can be used, only if i know that new class name thats been poped up when the event happens to that main window....
Is there anyway in runtime to know that new class name & fetch the event...

Why does a new tab (middle click) in a new window open in the original window?

In FF 4 Beta 11 I open a new window, middle click a link in the new window, but the new tab opens on the original window.
Why doesn't it open in the new window?
Are there settings to alter this behaviour?

In 4.0 stable this problem still occurs. I have restarted in safe mode and all new tabs (middle click or right click new tab) open in the original window.

New window opens in main monitor when using dual screen

I am using dual screens and my "main screen" is on the left. Ever since Firefox updated to 32.0.1 on Monday I've been having this issue. Before the update, I would have my main Firefox window opened on the left and, when I click on a link to open a new window, it would open on the right screen. Now, it will only open on the left screen, where the other window is. If I drag the original window to the right monitor and open a link, the new window will open on the right monitor. But once I drag the original window back to the left, new links will open in the left again.
Before if I had this problem, I would simply drag the new window to the right monitor, then back to the left and close it. Then click the link again and it would open in the right. Kind of a work around I guess. But since the update, even this will not work. Any suggestions? Or is this a new function of the updated version? Is there a way for me to go back to the previous version? Any help is appreciated!

Hi hollytotheg,
I understand that links opening in new windows are opening in the active screen, not on the right, second monitor.
This may be helpful: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/monitor-master/] the search recommends this.
However I would also recommend suggesting an enhancement in input about dual monitor new window restriction.

I want to have 2 windows open at the same time using Windows7

Using any application, I want to have 2 windows open at the same time - 1 excel sheet & 1 Word document, or 2 diff pages from Blackboard, or email & Blackboard. How do I do this. Multiple tabs show, but only one will display

Are you saying that you can't open a new window using {Ctrl + N} or with File > New Window?
If so, something added to Firefox is blocking the opening of new windows, and you need to do a little troubleshooting to discover what is causing that fault.
Try the Firefox SafeMode. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' 
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
# You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
# Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

New window opens maximized

I press the "Print" button in google maps.
It opens a new window that is windowed, not maximized.
Now it suddenly opens maximized.
How do I change it back?
firefox 29.0.1

Thanks for the reply so quick.
I had this issue 10/7/2013 (because there was a file named "localstorex.rdf" dated 10/7/2013
So I renamed it "localstorey.rdf" , restarted Firefox and my print window opens as usual.

How do I make new tabs open to home page?

How can I make new tabs open next to the current tab?

New tabs are advertised in Firefox 5.0 as being set to open next the the current tab by default. Mine, however, do not do this. They open to the right of the last tab, necessitating a lot of tab-scrolling, and a minor waste of time.
I have not installed the extension that forces the tab behaviour I'm currently witnessing.
Is there a kind soul out there with any suggestions for how I can get my new tabs to appear next to the tab I'm working on?

Tabs that are "related" to the current tab, like the same domain, open to the right of the current tab. Other links that are from other domains open at the right end of the tab strip.
The pref for that actions is '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent'''.
To have them all open to the right of the current tab would need an add-on, if that action even exists in an add-on.

In Firefox 5, New Windows open in the same window even though the options are set to open in a new window.

I have the options set to open new windows in a new tab. However, they do not.
For example, as I click on the various options for support on Firefox.com, each opens in the same window. Similarly for Yahoo. If I bring up the news page and click on various links, they all open in the same window. How do you get them to open in new windows?

Pure speculation, but maybe that Identity Finder program is deleting your browsing history which is how Firefox restores tabs and windows from the previous session. Check with technical support for that program or look at the manual.

When I open a link a new window opens with the toolbar and sidebar missing, on my previous machine the link simply opened in a new tab (not window).

When I open a link in Firefox instead of opening a new tab it opens in a new window with all of the toolbars missing including the sidebar, right clicking anywhere gives me no options to restore the toolbars. My old machine simply opened the same link that I am trying in a new tab with all my toolbars available.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.
