I would like to open highlighted phrases in a new tab while staying in the tab I'm reading.

I will be reading a page and want to highlight a word or phrase on the page and open it in a new tab for later perusal after I'm finished reading the page I'm on. I don't want to swap to the new tab until I select it.

Yes, and that solved the problem. After the 4000th time of it tabbing me out of the article I was reading and having to tab back in it was getting annoying:) Thank You Cor-el!

    '''browser.search.openintab''' userset boolean True

    You can always force opening a link into a tab with Ctrl+click or Ctrl+Shift+click
    If you want the same from a bookmark make sure to set

  • I would like to open a Firefox browser with multiple tabs per topic, like work1/work2/hobby and see that given name in the taskbar, instead of the tab-name

    I usually open a new browser window per subject, let's say I'm shopping online for something and open about 5 tabs for that, but in the same time I am working on 2 systems which are lookalike, but defenitely should not be mixed average 6 tabs open per subject. Also I read something on my hobby and I open another window and want to read a few tabs on that.
    I don't want them to mix and preferably I'd like to see a self-chosen subject for a minimized window in the taskbar.
    Is there a feature like this or is it possible to add a feature like this?

    Another alternative by the way maybe to use multiple Firefox profiles. I will give more information on that if required. It is fairly easy if you are used to using computers but not something this forum officially supports with KB articles.
    The bult in Tabs groups sounds more like what you want. Did you try that ?
    As for trying to interest Developers. You could make a comment using ''feedback'' but I would not hold out much hope unless you yourself know a developer willing to undertake the coding and press for its use. Maybe you would be more likely to interest and get something from add-on developers, assuming a similar add-on does not already exist.
    The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other Firefox users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or Firefox developers.
    If you want to leave feedback for Firefox developers, you can go to the Firefox ''Help'' menu and select ''Submit Feedback...'' or use [https://input.mozilla.org/feedback this link]. (You'll need to be on the latest version of Firefox to submit feedback). Your feedback gets collected at http://input.mozilla.org/, where a team of people read it and gather data about the most common issues.

  • I would like to combine multiple profiles into a new computer. Which are the most important folder or files to migrate?

    The user profile in my old computer somehow became corrupted and I can no longer access it to log on. Unfortunately I was not aware of the Firefox sync feature at the time. I used a new profile and had to start from scratch to save new bookmarks and extensions/plugins. I did set up Firefox sync for this new profile. Now I have a brand new computer and desire to migrate the bookmarks to this new computer, including the original bookmarks in the old computer, as well as the bookmarks in the second profile. While I have located the profiles folder for each profile in my old computer (as well as extensions and plugin folders), the content of this folder is daunting. I would like to know which are the minimal folders I should select to migrate and would it be safe to simply copy and paste over the entire folder? Please note that I have also added new bookmarks into my new computer which I would not like erased. I hope these details are not convoluted.

    Firefox has two methods of bringing in bookmarks from another Firefox profile:
    * Restore a backup (JSON files in the bookmarkbackups folder): this completely replaces what you have, so is not the first step
    * Import from an HTML file: this is additive and will create an Imported Bookmarks folder or add them under Unsorted Bookmarks
    Restore is best if you tag your bookmarks because the JSON format preserves tags. If tags are not important, then it's easier.
    What I suggest is:
    (1) Export your current bookmarks to the HTML format; you can reimport these later. See: [[Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file to back up or transfer bookmarks]]. Open the file in Firefox (it's a web page) to make sure it looks complete before proceed.
    Next, get the bookmarkbackups folders from each of your old profiles that you want to restore, and look for the most-complete-looking JSON files (they will have the most recent dates and largest number of bookmarks indicated in the file name). Proceed from the smallest set to the largest, or oldest to newest; basically, restore the most important one last.
    (2) Restore a backup, then export to HTML. This article has the steps for a restore: [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]. Then export to HTML and check for completeness.
    (3) Repeat #2 until you get to the last/most important restore. You don't need to export that one.
    (4) Import the HTML files you've made throughout the process.
    (5) In the Library dialog, reorganize. Firefox doesn't have a deduplicator, but you might find one or more extensions to do the job on the Add-ons site if you find a lot of overlap.
    Make sense?

  • I have an iMac with OS 10.9.5 and CS6. I would like to open some Kodak .pcd files from 1998. What's the answer, third party software?

    The question is in the title.

    Yes. Graphic Converter 9 does support .pcd and you can convert it to something like jpeg or png.
    You can download and trial it here:

  • I would like to open a PDF file from my downloads and read it without all the resistance

    When I try to open a PDF Adobe file from my downloads I get a screen that resists further use, I cannot open the file.  Adobe seems to suggest that I have to purchase something or that the file is corrupted.   All these files cannot be corrupted.  This should not be so difficult, in the 21st century. Would like to be a smooth user.

    Hi smoothuser,
    We are sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.
    Please let me know which application of Adobe you are using including the version.
    Attach a screen shot of the problem to get better understanding about the problem you are facing if there is an error.

  • HT204406 I opened i Tunes on my mac and while i see the songs in some of my playlists they will not play. The computer says the song could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it? When i do it won't play.

    I opened i Tunes on my mac and while i see the songs in some of my playlists they will not play. The computer says the song could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it? When i do it won't play.

    You will need to locate where you itunes library is and then relink one of the songs, itunes will do the rest. So if your itunes library is on an external hard drive or something like that. When you get the error message click yes you would like to locate it. then navigate to the external hard drive where the itunes libray is and locate that particular song. Once you have linked one, itunes will ask if you would like it to locate the rest, click yes and it will find the rest of the files if they are in the same location.

  • HT202667 I would like to open a new itunes account with an existing email

    I would like to open a new iTunes account using an existing email address. How can I do that?

    Hi,
    Thanks for providing more information on what you're trying to accomplish.  If you want to create an Apple ID, the email cannot be associated with a pre-existing Apple ID account.  Why are you trying to create another Apple ID?  If you just want to change your Apple ID, you can simply change the primary email account.
    Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

    Not really.  You are thinking like Einstein was thinking when he wanted  his kitten to go in the small hole he drilled specifically while the kitten's mum had her own big hole.  To his surprise both went through the same big hole and he said what a waste of time drilling the small hole!!!!
    You haven't said how you have connected the two monitors.  Are you using some switches like KVM switches that can do the job most efficiently? <http://www.kvms.com/Product/GCS78.aspx>
    There must be some cheap ones in your area so just shop around.
    Alternatively, Just connect one monitor (big one) to your machine which you work on and to view your pages you will need to upload the files somewhere so that your other machine can connect to them using the browser like any other websites.  You need two machines to do this, of course!

  • I would like to open a second iTunes account in another country, but still maintain my original Canadian account.  I have read the advice regarding signing out of the original account,and then signing in and setting up a new account.  but will I still be

    I would like t open a second iTunes account for a different country, but still be able to access my original account. It was not clear inthe documentation I read on this subject if this was indeed possible - using the signing out/in, create new account procedure.

    How recently did you switch?  If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account.  The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices.  I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices...

    No, but there is a developer tool that you can add a custom size to. It is called Responsive Design View.
