I can not open a new tab

Whether I click the 'new tab' icon or New Tab from the File Menu, nothing happens.

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  • The + button or "open a new tab" does not correspond. I also tried with Ctrl+T but I can not open a new tab unless I click on a link in the existed tab. What can I do?

    I have seen nothing relevant in options

    The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.

  • I cab not open a new tab, Conrol t, new tab, right click, etc. nothing works.

    Since the last upgrade, I can not open a new tab. Only a new window. None of the tab options work.

  • I can not get a new tab to open. It opens a new tab when I go to Firefox Help but not when I want to open a bookmark of other web site.

    When I click on the tab bar I will not open a new tab.

    That can be a problem with the Ask<i></i>.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    Hi TGreybeard,
    Have you looked at the [[Firefox keeps opening many tabs or windows]] Knowledge Base article? There is some good information in there that should help you resolve the issue.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • I can not open the bookmarks tab or use the right mouse button in firefox

    ''locking this thread as duplicate, please continue at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1053467 /questions/1053467]''
    I recently downloaded firefox to my new laptop. I can not open the bookmarks tab or use any of the right mouse button options.

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    *Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
    If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

  • Can't open a new tab using the little + or ctrl t, have tried the options posted befor, can anybody help?

    For the last week or so i have not been able to open a new tab, have looked through a lot of the solutions on here but none seem to have wroked, i have disabled all add ons in the add on manager and removed the ASK toolbar and still can't open a new tab, it is becoming very frustrating!
    The only way i can get a new tab open is to click on a somewhere and hope it opens in a new window, can anyone help me solve this issue please?

    Hey
    Thanks for that, i stated in safe mode and it seemed to have sorted out the problem :)

  • I can't open a new tab unless I right click a link and hit "open in new tab"?

    I can't open a new tab unless I right click a link and hit "open in new tab."
    I click ctrl+t, click the new tab button, right click the tab bar and hit "new tab", and even click "File" and hit "New Tab", but it still won't open a tab!
    This has been going on for a week!
    I know it may not seem like too much of a problem since I can still open a tab, but it's terribly inconvenient that I can only open one by clicking a link.

    The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.

  • 3.6.16 Broke My Tabs!!!! I can't open any new tabs now

    This morning I got a automatic Firefox update to 3.6.16. Foolishly I let the thing update.
    Now, I can't open any new tabs!!!!!!!! I've tried all three methods. ctrl-t, file new tab, and of course the new tab button on the tab bar.
    nothing works. It just ignores it and keeps the one tab open.
    I did discover applications can still open a new tab. When I clicked firefox help, it opened in a new tab.
    right click, and opening a link in a new tab works too.

    Hi cmccloud,
    What is the error message you get? If it's telling you to upgrade Numbers but you already have updated, then that means you probably are trying to open the document with the old version, which is still on your Mac, in a sub folder within Applications named iWork '09. Open the document with the Numbers that is in your Applications folder (not the one in a subfolder). It's easy to confuse the two, because the icons are similar.
    If you're getting some other error message, could you post specifics?
    SG

  • Why firefox in my desktop can't open a new tab in the same windows?

    I can't open a new tab by clicking the + symbol. I don't know why this happen. If I want to open a new tab, I have to take a right click and then choosing open new tab. I think this is so terrible, I can't access the page on the same windows.

    Uninstall the '''''Ask Toolbar'''''. It can cause that problem.

  • Installed Flash Player 14, now I can't open any new tabs

    This morning (June 11, 2014) I downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player 14 (because of an upgrade prompt) and now I can't open any new tabs. Links from emails will open new tabs - so will some internet links will open new tabs - but pressing the "+" does nothing. I tried reinstalling Flash Player. I tried downloading and installing a new Firefox.
    Mac OS X - 10.6.8

    If the Flash player plugin currently has the keyboard input focus, then it can intercept Command+t, but that shouldn't affect the new tab button.
    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Any difference?
