I need to set a new window to maximize on opening

Hi There am looking for some assistance. I maintain a system for a customer that uses a firefox browser to deliver a number of pages to a number of terminals around a building. The existing system uses firefox version 1. something and i am currently looking at replacing with new PCs and teh latest version of Centos which comes with firefox 3.6.24 installed. The only problem i am currently having is that when firefox opens it looks for our server and then opens a second window that actually displays the pages of information and on the existing system this secondary window opens maximized but on the new firefox it does not open maximized and i cannot find the ability to do this.

{Ctrl + Click} doesn't open a hyperlink in a new tab? 
Do you have that problem in the Firefox SafeMode?

Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started 2 days ago. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window?
There is no plus sign and going into optins and changing settings has not worked. I have uninstall FF and reinstall-keeping my personalization-and that was no help.
Right clicking on FF Icon to open a new tab, or going up to FF drop down tab and clicking on new tab both do not work.
Help everything opens a new window not a new tab. there seems to be no way to reset this or to chose a different optin. I just downloaded new tabs at end addon and it didn't do a thing.

as a first troubleshooting step - does it work like normally when you open & run firefox in [[Safe Mode|safemode]] by pressing the shift key while you open firefox (all other instances have to be closed before)...

Since the latest update of 3.5.11, firefox opens links in a new window. it used to open links in a new tab. how can i fix that?

The setting in "Tools > Options > Tabs" only works for links that would open in a new window. 
That option allow you to divert such calls to a new tab. 
For other links you either have to use a middle click or a Ctrl + left click or use the context menu.

Mac user OS 10.6.8 Firefox 6.0.2. Click the Firefox icon in dock, program does not open new window. Type cmd+N to open new window, cmd+T to open new tab or cmd+L to enter URL, nothing happens. What causes this, and what can be done?

It's strange. The problem apparently resolved itself after I ran TechTool on it. When I clicked on Firefox last night, I had no problem opening a window. Thanks for your help. (As to your previous post, the focus was on Firefox and neither the speed keys nor the menu bar would open a window or tab of allow me to enter a URL to open a window. Strange!)

How do I set the default window size when I open a Numbers 3.0 document

How do I set the default window size when I open a Numbers 3.0 document?
When I open an existing document it always open too small, I resize it but next time I open it it's small again! Please help! I used to be able to resize them then they stayed that size until I resized it no matter how many times I opened and closed it before upgrading to 3.0!!!!

This document can help you set the print settings for any type of printing. Not just for photos as the title suggests. You should not have to keep setting it every time.

Have CS6 installed on Windows Vista, need to install on new Windows 8 omputer

The disk does not launch the installer. If I manually start the installer, it asks for a serial number. When I input the serial number, it asks for the associated product and CS6 is not shown in the drop-down menu as an option. (CS6 Extended is shown, but not CS6).
How do I get CS6 to install on the new Windows 8 computer?

Hi there,
Welcome to the Community!
It seems that you have bought an upgraded serial number of CS6 and it is asking for a previous version.
Do you have a previous version either from CS5.5 or CS5?
Please contact Adobe support to discuss further options, check it here: http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html

[semi-solved] Cinnamon: Set default new window location?

I'm running Cinnamon and have a shortcut to gnome-panel on the taskbar
when I click it a terminal opens
The problem:
the terminal window is opened on the top left of the screen
I'd like it to open on the bottom right or center of the screen
How can I tell, whatever is responsible for this, to create new windows in the center or bottom right?
semi-solved because there should be a better way than using devilspie but it does the job

Hey Claire,
do you think it's X11 related or something to do with Cinnamon or.. which window manager does Cinnamon use?
Or rather, do you know which component is responsible for window placement, maybe a hack could be written
Cinnamon uses muffin as it's Window Manager, a fork of Mutter for GNOME. I'd assume that you'd be looking at getting something for muffin to work or using something like SteveK suggested.

New Window takes awhile to open

Whenever I try to open a new window, either by clicking New Window, hitting CTRL N, or clicking on a link to open a new window, it takes the window 30+ seconds to launch. While it is in the process of opening Firefox works normally and I can work in other windows without issue. Creating a new tab or opening links in a new tab works fine. Disabling add-ons did not fix the problem. Neither did uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox (same profile though). Doing a Refresh and having Firefox reset the profile DID fix the problem. However, as soon as I set up Sync again with my primary desktop to restore my settings, etc. the problem came back. I have had this problem for as long as I can remember, but just didn't have time to troubleshoot it until now. I am guessing there is a setting buried in one of the files and I am hoping someone can help me change it so I don't have to start from scratch rebuilding the profile the way I like it. Thanks for your time!

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
'''If Firefox is open,''' you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
* Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
'''If Firefox is not running,''' you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
;[[Image:SafeMode-Fx35]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.

New window does not automatically open with Safari

When I open Safari by clicking on the icon in the dock, the menu at the top looks like Safari is open, but no window opens. I then have to click on:
File>New Window to actually open a window and browse.
This just started happening.
Any solutions out there?

I copied the file that is meantioned to the desktop, opened it by doubleclicking and searched for ”OpenWindow”. You'll find it a few lines from top. It has no number typed so I typed ”1” and closed the app. It asked me to save with extension ”.ooutline”. You can save it with that extension but on the desktop you'll need to re-name its extension to ”.plist”. I did that and dragged the file back to its original location. You'll be asked if you would like to replace the file, click Yes. Now I have a Safari opening the window as usual.
This can happen in case you re-install the operative system on your Mac, the Safari is updated but the Safari on the CD is older, which is overwriting your newer Safari you already have with the older version from the CD-ROM and this problem occur: you see Safari opening up, you see the menues on top of your screen but no window is open in Safari.
I hope this helps.

Why can I not open a new window but I can open new tabs in V3.6.16?

I am running Firefox 3.6.16 on both my PC and my laptop. The program works fine on my PC, I can open both new windows and new tabs. However, on my laptop I can not open a new window. Tabs open just fine, but when I try to open a new window nothing happens. Also, when I close the program after trying to open a new window the program is still running but I have no Firefox window to work in and therefore have to go through the Task Manager to end the program. And when I re-open it, I get asked if I want to restore the session or start a new session. Is there a way to

New Window Target doesn't open a new window in Contribute but does in Firefox

I have made the neccessary steps to allow a link to open in a
new window by choosing "New Window" as the Target, and when testing
the published page within the Contribute browser it does not seem
to work. So I went ahead and tested it in Firefox (and other
browsers as well) and it does work. Doesn't this seem strange?
Anyone else having this problem? Does anyone know why Contribute
works this way? Thanks in advance for your help.

I did a quick test by changing a link to open in a new
window. Within Contribute, when I click the link, a new IE window
opened. Can you provide a link to the page or the source code of
the page?

I have two monitors on my Mac. Running FF3.6.16 new windows now want to open on the wrong monitor. How do I get FF to open on the main display?

I have an eMac with a second display. I am running OS X 10.4.11 (Tiger) and Firefox 3.6.16. Everything was working fine until the other day I opened a second window in Firefox and dragged it to my secnd monitor. I later closed it. Since then all New Window requests, including when starting Firefox always open on the second monitor. How do I tell Firefox I want my main monitor has the primary monitor?

It has nothing to do with the Mac, but more with the software exporting the displays on the PC. A typical VNC server will generally only export the primary monitor.
What PC software are you using to export the display(s), and what Mac software are you using to view the PC displays? That may help someone come up with a workable solution for you (or not ).
