I want to change the default window for my tabs

After I have Firefox loaded it goes to my homepage which is great. When i click on the "plus" sign to open a new tab in my window it defaults to some stupid search engine called "delta search" which I hate and cannot get rid of. I have had issues like this in the past where I just removed the add on and it was fixed. This time I removed the add on and it still shows up. How do I make it so it always opens my home page every new tab I open?

Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.

Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

  • How do I change the default zoom for New Tab only?

  • How can I change the default behavior for ctrl-Tab?

    I tried to change the behavior of ctrl-Tab from 'Next Tab' to 'Previous Tab' and added 'alt-Tab' for 'Next Tab' in Keyconfig so I can navigate in both directions with one hand. It does not change the behavior of ctrl-Tab.
    I created both these shortcuts in Keyconfig:
    Next Tab
    gBrowser.mTabContainer.advanceSelectedTab(1,true);
    Previous Tab
    gBrowser.mTabContainer.advanceSelectedTab(-1,true);
    I even tried doing this from the command line with the same result:
    defaults write org.mozilla.firefox NSUserKeyEquivalents -dict-add "Next Tab" "~Tab"
    defaults write org.mozilla.firefox NSUserKeyEquivalents -dict-add "Previous Tab" "^Tab"
    I'm not sure why this didn't work but maybe "Tab" is the wrong keyword. I couldn't find any documentation on what it should be. Or possibly "Next Tab" and "Previous Tab" don't work in this case because they are not 'built-in' commands. A third possibility is that it won't work because ctrl-Tab is a built-in shortcut but I can't believe that is why. I was able to change cmd-Q to ^-cmd-Q no problem and that is a default OS X shortcut. I was also able to change other built-in functions' shortcuts, just not this one.
    So what am I doing wrong? Has anybody been able to change this particular shortcut?

    OK I posted a link to this thread on that forum thread but I still think this is general enough that it could be answered in this forum.

  • How do I change the default settings for opening documents on my macbook?

    Hi I would like to know how to change the default settings for opening documents on my macbook. Everytime I try to open a doc. it automatically opens with Textedit, instead of Pages or another program.

    Select any particular document you wish to fix. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Open With section select the desired Default Application from the dropdown menu. Click on the Change All button to extend the change to all similar documents.
    You can only assign one default application to one type of document.

  • How to change the default langauge for logon-Urgent

    Hi All,
    I need to set the default language for the web-UI login (say english). Could you please help me how can I do it?
    My scenario is:
    Lets say if the end user is launching Web-UI from Germany (His browser default langauage will have German most of the time), Web-UI is picking German as default language while my client wants to show everything in English to everyone despite of any langauge in the browser.
    I have already set logon language to english in SU01/ in the service login data via SICF but still Web-UI is picking langauge from the browser, while If I am launching web-UI from my favourite list (in which i have set two paramater sy-langu = 'E' and sap-langauge = 'EN') then web-UI is not picking langaue from the browser.
    But in the ideal scenario user will launch Web-UI from the portal (Which can have diffrent diffrent application coming from diffrent-diffrent system  and I want to change the language only for web-UI application which is coming from CRM) not from the favourite list.
    Kindly provide me your input.
    Thanks and regards,
    Sandeep

  • How do I change the default window color?

    Having white screens is too bright for my eyes!! I always change the default window color in Windows (hiss hiss) to a light shade of gray and that setting carries thru to all windows (i.e. Word, Excel, notepad....). Is it possible to do a similar thing with Tiger? I see that I can choose between a couple of "schemes" from a "Desktop and Dashboard Settings" area (or similar - i don't have my mac here now so can't look to see the proper name) but I see no way to alter colors within those schemes. If you can tell me how to change the default color for my windows I will be awfully happy. thanks.

    Personally, I wouldn't trust it, and I don't hesitate to try these things most of the time even though they sometimes cause problems. But I've used Unsanity products before and they all require installing a preference pane called APE; Application Enhancement module, and that thing caused me lots of problems for my system, lots of crashes and flakiness. I won't use it again.
    But I'm sure there are lots of people using it happily, but if you don't feel confident in dealing with system problems stay away from anything that adds a system preference pane or goes up in the top menu bar at the top (Apple icons excepted) or has to start up with the system.

  • How do I change the default locations for the iTunes music and iPhone back-up folders?

    My computer's hard drive is partitioned, with one partition having all of the Windows system files, and the other having all of my documents, music, videos, etc.  When I installed iTunes, it automatically created its music and iPhone folders on the Windows partition.  I've been able to change the default save folders for other programs to the second partition, but I'm having troubles finding this option in iTunes (I even went back and re-installed it to see if I could find it that way, but no dice).  Is there a way to change the default folders for the iTunes library and iPhone files?  It takes up A LOT of space on my Windows partition, so it would be very great to get that moved over.
    Thanks!

    You can't selectively move individual folders withing the iTunes  folder, but you can move the entire folder to, say, an external dive. To delink the iTunes application to the new library location:
    Open iTunes while holding down the Option key (Mac) or Shift key (Windows).
    In the resulting dialog, click the Choose Library button.
    Select the iTunes folder you moved to the external hard drive.
    Click Choose (Mac OS X) or Open (Windows) and then choose the iTunes Library file inside .

  • How do you change the default setting for RTF documents from TextEdit to MS Word

    How do you change the default setting for RTF documents from TextEdit to MS Word, I download forms from the Canadian government and they use RTF as a standard, they are supposed to open as MS Word documents (Yes I have Office for MAC 2011) but when download the document it goes to TextEdit which messes up the form format. I can down load it right click and go "open with" MS Word but how can I get the default chnaged to save this step.

    Thanks I knew this, I like Safari as I want to keep everything MAC, but if I use Firefox the documents open in MS Word straight away, I was just curious if there was some setting I could change?
    In Firefox > Preferences, click the Applications tab. If RTF is there, use the pulldown menu in the Action column to pick MS Word. If RTF is not there, there are instructions here for how to add file types.

  • How do I change the default language for the spell checker? - solved, sort of...

    As the previous thread was closed without actual resolution - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/941350?esab=a&s=&r=0&as=s
    I managed to solve this on my end by just reinstalling firefox using the localisation of the default dictionary language i wanted from here - http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
    A bit of a shame that the main download page doesnt select the geographically relevant localisation for you and even more so that changing the default language for the in built spell checker is so kak. oh well.

  • Change the default icon for unsatisfied node

    Is it possible to change the default icon for the unsatisfied node (unsatisfied indicator). I have checked the UI content element with the same name, but it does not have the source file setting in it, so I guess it is hard coded. I tried to change the source file with the name unsatisfied_status.gif to a different image and it works, but this will be a system wide change. I want to do this as a model specific change. Has anyone done this before? Thanks in advance.
    Cheers,
    Biju.

    Did you try changing image name in UI edit page?
    UI edit page lists few images which can be changed for each UI, like unsatisfied indicator, logic status icons etc.

  • How to change the default window size display font size on Lync 2013 main window?

    Hi champs,
    Just a simple non-technical question: How to change the default window size display font size on Lync 2013 main window on Windows 7 desktop?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Did you mean change the Lync: Change the Default Font and Color of Instant Messages just as Edwin said above?
    If not, as I know, there is no natural way to change it.
    If yes, on the latest version of Lync 2013 client, there is a new option “IM” on Lync client “Options” list. And you need to change the default Font and Color of IM in the interface of “IM”.

  • Changing the default view for Line Items in an Auction.

    Hello All,
    We have a version 5 client who is asking for us to change the default view for line items in an auction.
    Currently, if you have an auction setup, and you go to the Line Items tab, the default view is the "Basic View". The client would like to change the Default from "basic view" to "price view".
    Is there a way to change this default in the system? Can this be configured using query groups? Any information would be helpful.

    Hi wood cloud,
    This is not possible, bcz there is no VLV for that drop down and we cant set it  to the price view.
    Thanks,

  • Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"? (OSX 10.10)

    Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"?
    I can change it for one conversation, but then it resets to the default, tiny font.
    The preferences menu only lets me change the conversation font.
    (OSX 10.10)

    Hi,
    As you may remember there used to be a Messages pane to the Preferences where the Font and colour of the Balloons or background and the Font text colour could be changed.
    And there was a Format Menu for character, word and Sentence changes in the current IM or iMessage.
    Those have gone in Yosemite's version of Messages (Despite it retaining the designation of Messages 8 the same as Mavericks' version).
    All that can be done now is set the size of the font and this has been moved to the General Section of the Preferences.
    The Yosemite version has also been fixed to using the Balloons style of send and receiving any type of messages as well.
    Changing the Font would involved editing the Balloon.transcript file.
