That happens if the server sends the file as text/plain.
You can see this if you open "Tools > Page Info > General": Content-Type: text/plain
Files send this way will always open in a tab.

Why does firefox zoom in when I open a new tab? How can I disable this?

Every time I right click on a link and select "Open link in a new tab" firefox zooms in. This happens also when I hold ctrl and click on a link. I know I can just zoom back out using ctrl - but this gets really annoying sometimes. How can I disable this?

hello, this sounds a bit as if the ctrl-key on your keyboard is constantly pressed - maybe it's a hardware issue, can you try with a different keyboard?

Firefox won't give me new tabs. How can I fix this?

When I try to add a new tab, Firefox won't open a new tab. I have to select a new window. When I click on a link, it won't take me to Firefox. I have to open 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).

Firefox is my default browser, yet Bing appears when opening a new tab. How can I stop this?

I have set Firefox as my default browser with Google as my default search engine. I have eliminated Bing from the drop-down list in Firefox of alternate engines. However, when I am browsing and open a new tab, the Bing search window page appears. Google is still in the search line at the top of the page.
I want Google to be the search engine that appears, not Bing.

Try setting your home page to Google.
* Go to your Firefox preferences: Tools -> Options
* Click on the General tab
* In the "Home Page" box, type in "http://www.google.com"
* Press OK

Whenever I click the "home" button, my homepage appears but a Firefox start page also opens in a new tab. How can I stop this?

This problem began only after I upgraded to the latest version of Firefox.

Hi Doug,
Sorry about that. It might be that '''both''' your homepage and the Firefox Start page are set as your homepage.
Here's how to reset your homepage:
# Open your homepage and close any other tabs
# Click the [[Image:New Fx Menu]] menu button and click ''Preferences''
# In the Preferences Window click ''General''
# Click the ''Use Current Pages'' button
Hopefully this will fix things. Let us know if it works!
Best,
Jayelbe

Go into Settings App and turn OFF Find My iPhone. It will ask for your old password, but in the future you can use your new Apple ID account. If you need to reset the old password try this: https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid?language=US-EN&returnURL=https ://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa&app_id=93&app_type=ext

I'd like to have web links open automatically in a new tab. How do I make this happen?

1. When I open Firefox I have it set up that my gmail page automatically opens. When I want to go to another web site a new tab does not open but replaces my gmail tab. Then I have to use "back" or "history" to return to the gmail page. This gets difficult when I have been surfing the web & then have to go "back" thru numerous web pages. I'd like each web page to open in it's own tab. How do I do this?
2. Also, in google help it stated: " If you want to open a link in a new tab instead, just right-click on the link and select Open Link in New Tab from the context menu. " I tried this & the "Open Link in New Tab" did not appear in the menu. Can you assist me in locating this menu?

If you use Ctrl + left-click or middle-click a link then the link should open in a new tab.

You don't. Apps are permanently tied to the ID used to purchase them. Instead of creating a new ID, change the primary email address on your existing ID.

I am trying to make a iphoto book but every time i click on a single photo or folder it opens up a new book. How can I avoid this? This is iphoto 10.

I am trying to make a iphoto book but every time i click on an individual photo (or folder) it opens up a new book. How can i avoid this?

Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
NOTE: If you're running iPhoto 9.5 the export options will be different.

Hi Amanda,
Software applications are usually installed in the Applications folder on the Macintosh HD and are accessible to all users.
I would advise you to check the Applications folder and see if your software is in there.
Next step would be to Control Click or Right Click on the application and choose "Get Info" and make sure the permissions are set to "Read & Write" for all users. The article below provides more details:

Oh no SN95GT50, great question. I am sure seeing that notification is annoying. What make/model phone do you have? If you have an Android device, you can go into Settings, Application Manager, Voicemail, Clear Cache. Let us know if you are still needing assistance.
