I'm unable to open additional tabs to open another site...the "+" at the top of the page doesn't work.

I'm able to open sites from my toolbar but the "+" at teh top of the Mozilla homepage doesn't work. I cannot open another window to go to another site by using the "+" at the top of the page. If I try to open another site frm my toolbar, it replaces the current page.

We have recently seen reports about a Community Toolbar extension causing this issue with not being able to open a new tab.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> 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

Can no longer open additional tabs using Forefox 17.0

I downloaded the update for Firefox 17.0 and installed it with no problems. After completion, I discovered that I could not open additional tabs as with previous versions of Firefox. I tried various methods, including the File pulldown menu, clicking on the tab stop next to an already open website, and using Ctrl+T. Nothing worked. I can open additional windows, but find it much more convenient to use tab stops, and am currently unable to do so using the latest version of Firefox.

also in your "System Details" you have installed 2 flash versions (Shockwave Flash 11.5 r502 & Shockwave Flash 11.4 r402) and 2 Adobe PDF Plug-In (Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape 10.1.4 & Netscape 10.1.3).

When I am trying to open multiple tabs by clicking on File- New Tab, no additional tabs are opening i.e. I cannot open multiple tabs in my browser..Please help..

I am unable to use the multiple tabs option in my firefox browser. When I am clicking on File->New Tab no additional tabs are opening..

The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13 version. Evidently something in that extension isn't compatible with a Firefox security fix. Disable that extension or un-install it.

Internet Explorer will not open additional tabs

I bought a Yoga 2 Pro a couple of weeks ago an overall I really like it. There is one thing that is a little strange.When I open up IE from the start/tablet page it will not open additional tabs if the website requests it. It will either stay on the initial page or open a blank page. For example; there is a website I use alot, when you click a link it opens it in another window. When I do that it just opens a blank page.
If I use IE from the Desktop it works fine. Am I missing a setting somewhere?
Thanks,
Brian

Try the free Fix IE utility.

You can try uninstalling IE8 then reinstalling it.
Uninstall IE8
I would take 'Y2ken's' advice and try Firefox. I have used it for years with XP Pro and Ubuntu, Linux. It definitely is more responsive. Most of what is in IE8 was developed in FF several years ago. FF was the first browser with tabs, for instance.

I can't seem to open additional tabs with the +, the drop down menu, or Command T? Is this a bug, or am I missing something?

BOOM! You have hit the nail on the head, sir!
I disabled my Vuze Remote Community Toolbar and the problem was fixed.
Thank you, the-edmeister!!!!

Sorry, you've reached the maximum number of open tabs. Please close a few tabs first before opening additional tabs.?

I have just opened email. There is one email. When I click to open I receve the message "Sorry, you've reached the maximum number of open tabs. Please close a few tabs first before opening additional tabs." How can I have too many tabs? Does anyone else receive this message? What do you do to get to read your email?

Wow, never heard of that one before, is this on your Mac or an iDevice?
Or is this WebMail in a Browser?

When I first open Firefox it is fine but if I open a second tab to search another site I get a white screen and have to continually click 'back', click the site link, white screen, back, click the link, white screen and so on.

This can also be a problem with the files [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
You will have to redo App Tabs and Tab Groups after deleting sessionstore.js.

Hello,
''jstavene wrote:''
can find nothing under the tools menu for private browsing?
Then it's not the same issue.
If Firefox is set to '''Never remember history''', then you're in “permanent private browsing” mode, in which case the menu item ''Stop Private Browsing'' will be grayed out. Perhaps that's the case, and you don't find the menu item easy to see?
* [[Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track]]
If that's not the case, then menu items can be hidden using the userChrome.css file. Check if it exists, and if it's there, rename it, then restart Firefox.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css
In Firefox Nightly (what will become Firefox 20), per-window private browsing has been added, so the menu item under the Tools menu is gone. It's been replaced by New Private Window under the File menu. I don't suppose it's very likely that you're using such a cutting-edge test version of Firefox though.
If that doesn't solve the problem, since it's a different issue, it would be best if you would ask a new question.

Back up all data.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
Select

from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

I've had my MacBook Air for not even a year and about 2 months ago i tried opening my Iphoto, but it continually sits with a blank screen and the loading wheel just spins. Someone help :(

I've had my MacBook Air for not even a year and about 2 months ago i tried opening my Iphoto, but it continually sits with a blank screen and the loading wheel just spins. Someone help

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Using "+" I am unable to open additional tabs; if I use File and click on New Tab it will open. I don't have the Ask Toolbar. How can this be corrected?

Prior to today, when I clicked on the "+" a new tab would open. It no longer does that. However, when I open File and click on "New Tab" it opens just fine. I do not have the Ask Toolbar as far as I know (this was mentioned as a problem previously). What can be done to fix this? Thank you.

Safari closes down everytime i try to open additional tab.

Everytime i try to open a additional tab in safari, the app shuts down and im back at my homescreen. I can only have one tab open. Ive tried to restart, and uppdate the ipad. Ive even reset to its factory settings. But the problem remains. Any solutions?

If you restored as new without the backup, that should not still be happening. If you restored your backup, that could be the problem. Try this. Clear Safari, close it and reboot.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data.
Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Safari app then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Opening additional tabs on iWorks Numbers

I converted an Excel spreadsheet to iWorks Numbers and I cannot find the additional tabs and worksheets that are on the bottom of Excel. How can I use the other tabs(worksheets) from the Excel document in Numbers. I basically had mutliple worksheets in one Excel spreadsheet. However, when I open that Excel spreadsheet in Numbers, I only see the main worksheet. How do I access the other worksheets that are part of the same file. Thanks for your kind assistance. I am sure the answer is very simple.

This forum is dedicated to the productivity application, AppleWorks. It is not a "catch-all" for how Apple computers work. For your Pages 3/'08 questions, post in the Pages ‘08 forum. For your Numbers questions, post in the Pages ‘08 forum. Both are located in the iWork '08 sub-category of the iWork category.

When I click on the + sign, I do not get another tab even though an additional tab WILL open if, for example, I click on a link in an e-mail or on a site.

Before the latest upgrade, I could open a new tab by clicking on the + to the right of any open tabs. No more. Nothing happens. If I click on a link in an e-mail or on a website, however, a new tab will open. For example, if I get an e-mail from Facebook that says someone has posted and I click the link, I will get a new tab opened and Facebook will be there. Then I have both tabs open and can navigate on either with no problem. If I then click on the + sign, nothing at all happens. I am perfectly able to open Safari with Firefox running, and I can get multiple tabs going there with no effect on Firefox. That is, I can go back and forth.
I am grateful for any help! Thank you.
