  • How do I set new tabs to open with my home page

    When I open a new tab, it opens with bingle and I want it to open with Google, which is my home page.

    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 do I set my tabs to open with my home page?

    When I open a tab, how can I get it to open to my Home Page - the page I have set to open when opening Firefox?

    '''To cause new tabs to open at your home page in all windows''':
    '''I have added specific instructions to clarify exactly where entries should be made''' to the useful solution by Fred McD. (I'm using Firefox v. 29.0.1).
    The procedure is now very easy: just be careful with spelling of entries.
    Begin by opening a new window or tab. In the address (aka URL/location) bar, type '''''about:config'''''. If a warning screen comes up, click the '''''Be Careful''''' message.
    A new search bar appears below the address bar. Type '''''browser.newtab.url ''''' in it and press Enter.
    Below the new search bar is a new header: '''Preference Name''', followed by a long list list of all the possible preferences (settings) that can be changed (one of which is ''browser.newtab.url''). There is no explanation of the function of each; nor is there a corresponding list of possible values for each setting, so before you change one, record its value.
    Right click on '''Preference Name''' and from the resulting drop-down list click on '''''Modify'''''. A small window will open which contains a field containing the current value for browser.newtab.url. Note its value, then overwrite it with '''''about:home''''' to select the default Firefox home page for all new tabs. The new setting is immediately active: close the window.
    This method leaves the address bar of a new tab blank, unlike clicking the '''Home''' icon, so a different URL may be quickly entered if desired. (The new tabs have the unexpected generic title "Mozilla Firefox Start Page")
    Other possible settings are:
    about:newtab (shows the site most visited)
    about:blank (a blank page)
    any web page address (URL) you choose
    The same instructions apply to New Window settings, but beginning with the entry '''''browser.startup.homepage''''' .

    Not a standard feature in Firefox, but a number of different add-ons have that feature.

  • 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" ?

  • How can i get new tabs to open on my home page?

    I would like to have new tabs automatically open to my home page like it does when Firefox starts up.

    Type '''about:config''' in the Location Bar and hit Enter.
    ''Accept the warning message.''
    Type '''newtab.url''' in the Search field at the top.
    Go down a bit to this pref - '''browser.newtab.url''' = right-click and select '''Modify''' - insert '''about:home''' - if you are using the default homepage, otherwise put the URL of your homepage in the dialog box

  • My new tabs setting has chnanged to msn when I downloaded msn games, how can I reset new tabs to open my firefox home page please?

    Hi since I downloaded msn games my new tab window defaults to msn but I want it ot be Firefox. I can't seem to find how to reset it, can you advise please. Thanks

    You can go to Firefox and download one of many add-ons to do this. This issue has been addressed in another forum in Firefox Help. Follow this link: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/773676?s=new+tab+google&as=s
    Two add-ons mentioned by Tony E. are NewTabURL or New Tab Homepage.
    Also, whenever you open the new tab, you can just click on the home icon. That is what I do.

    You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
    You can look at one of these extensions:

  • In FF5, how can I get new tabs to open to my home page?

    How can I get a new tab in FF5 to default to my home page? The add-on which did that doesn't work with 5.

    You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.

    * NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/

  • I used to be able to click the Home icon using my center wheel to cause a new tab to open with my home page. This feature no longer works. Please advise.

    Suddenly, when I click the Home icon in the upper right of my Firefox page using my center wheel, a new tab no longer opens as
    my home page. Now, nothing happens when I do this.

    There's an extension or two, or a combination of extensions which seem to be causing that in Firefox 6.0.2. One that has been mentioned is TabMix Plus.
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    You need to figure out what is causing it, and disable that extension/s until they are fixed by their developer.
