I cannot open a new tab anymore. It happened all of a sudden and even when I updated, I still can't...

I can no longer open new tabs in Firefox. I have used it for years and I have never experienced this problem before. When I click on the new tab, nothing happens and I don't understand why. I updated it thinking that might be the problem, but it still doesn't work.

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.

  • I cannot open any new tabs, I have done all the troubleshooting on the website, any help?

    I cannot manually open a new tab. A new tab will open when clicking on a link. I have done all of the troubleshooting on the website but nothing has helped. I am using Firefox 3.6.

    hello g.hill250, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

  • I cannot open a new tab unless I right-click on a link and select "Open link in new tab"

    When I click the plus sign to open a tab, and even when I go to "File" and then "New Tab" Nothing happens. The only way I can get a new tab to open is by right-clicking a link. I've tried closing and restarting the browser, and even restarting my computer. Nothing is helping. Firefox did do an update this morning, could it be a glitch from that?

    Thank you! I went into safe mode and reset all of my settings to the default. Now everything works fine!

  • I can't open a new tab anymore; what happened?

    In the last few days, when I try to open a new tab, nothing happens!

    Go to '''Tools Add-ons''' in there, you may notice the ASK logo. If you have the '''Trillian ToolBar''' that could be causing it also. I just found out it is associated with ASK.

  • For some reason I cannot delete files off my desktop without putting my password in and even when I do I still can't delete and I also can't put files on my desktop at all ! but when I look at my desktop it gives me a silver lock? Please help me?

    when I go to find my desktop in Finder it shows a folder and a silver lock ? PLEASE HELP ME !

    If the light will not turn on the TC is dead. No matter that the hard disk is running.. it should only run at start up or when it is accessed not constantly.. that means the board in the TC has failed. Apple do not repair them.. They will replace it under warranty or applecare.
    If you have gone over the 12month warranty it will still be covered if you have applecare on any computer or an Apple TV. In fact the cost of the apple TV plus apple care is still cheaper than buying a new TC.. so it is a route some people are taking.. certainly depends.. in some places like Europe or Australia now, there is a recognition that statutory warranty must be longer on a product that is premium to the market. 12months is not good enough. Apple will sometimes listen.
    They might be fixable but I do not know how.

  • Just today, I cannot open a new tab - by clicking on the new tab button, or pressing CTRL+T. Help!

    I always use this feature and love it! I've gone thru the trouble-shooting guide, checked my plug-ins, cleared my cache and cookies, restarted my computer - and still no new tabs! The only way I can get a new tab is to click on HELP, FIREFOX HELP, and then use the new tab that opens.

    This issue can be caused by the Ask<i></i>.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Cannot open a new tab have to get a link and open in new tab.

    I cannot open a new tab either by clicking on the button on the tool bar, going to File/Open New Tab or CTRL T. I think this happened after I upgraded to the newest version of Firefox. The only way I can get a new tab is to click on a bookmark or link and right click and select Open in New Tab. Very frustrating.
