New tabs opening when clicking a link

I have a MacBook Pro running OS X
As of lately every time I am using safari and click on a link (i.e to get to the next page in a trademe search) a new tab opens up like a pop up. Normally it is some kind of advertisement. This just keeps happening and I can't figure out how to stop it happening. Sometimes it will open a whole new window but 90% of the time it is just a new tab that pops up. I can be simply looking for a recipe on Google and before I know it I have 10 tabs open of advertisements.
~feeling frustrated, please help me

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.
Malware is constantly changing to get around the defenses against it. The instructions in this comment are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
Step 2
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
          Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
This trojan is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that this Internet criminal has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

Disable Switch To Tab Function when clicking a link

When i click some links particularly in gmail, for instance if i get an email from youtube about a video being uploaded and i click said video, firefox opens this link in a new tab but the problem is that it automaticly switches to that tab which i hate. this happens with other links that want to open in a new tab to.
Switch to tab no more or switch to tab blacklist does not work. i did have a fix for it within the about:config page but i recently refreshed firefox and it removed the function. preferably i dont want to use an extension to solve this
''(edited title for clarity - c)''

You can remove the checkmark on "Open Tabs" in the location bar settings.
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Location Bar: When using the location bar, suggest:<br />[] Open tabs
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Options+window+-+Privacy+panel
Note that you can hold down the Alt or Shift key while an entry in the drop down list is highlighted to disable "Switch to tab" and see the URL of all entries instead.
* Alt + Enter opens the highlighted URL in a new tab.
* Shift + Enter opens the highlighted URL in the current tab.
* Cursor Right copies the highlighted URL to the location bar in case you want to edit it.

SkillBuilders Modal Page not opening when click edit link in a Manual Tabul

Hello,
This thread is related to a recent thread I created (Column Link is not working on a Manual Tabular Form I am using Apex 4.1.1.00.27, Oracle DB 10.2.0.5.0.
In summary, I have a collection that retrieves the information from the EMP table, a manual tabular form based on that collection, and a link in the DEPTNO field that branch to another page with a Form based on the DEPT table.
What I want to accomplish is to call the DEPT Form as a modal page that opens from my EMP Page.
What I did so far:
1. DEPT Page uses the popup template and branch to itself.
2. The Link Attribute of the Link Column (DEPTNO) is set to: onclick= *"return false;"*
3. I created a DA using jQuery Selector: *td[headers="LINK"] a*. Action: SkillBuilders Modal Page plug-in. URL Location: Attribute of Triggering Element. Attribute Name: href. Event Scope: live (Dynamic in Apex 4.2).
4. Changed the Application Security to Allow Embed in Frames.
My problem is that when I click the DEPTNO column, is it not opening the Modal Page.
I created an example on apex.oracle.com in case some of you want to look into it:
Workspace: EDIAZJORGE
Username: test
Password: test123
App Name: Sample App
App Number: 12231
I appreciate any help.
Thank you,
Erick

You were using a wrong jQuery selector. There are no columns with headers "LINK". Evidently, you want the modal to open through clicking the icon in the "DEPTNO" column, so all that is required is to change the selector to
td[headers="DEPTNO"] aYou can always easily test your selectors when you use a tool like Firebug. Simply run the selector in the console, and it'll show you all selected object. In your case, executing $('td[headers="LINK"] a') showed nothing. Dropping "a" still gave nothing. At that point i was pretty sure there were no columns with such a header...

IT IS ALSO A TIME WASTER.
When you installed iOS 8 did you read about the new features? Applications can create custom keyboards…

You need to look for an app that has a custom keyboard with the features you require, I suggest you find one without CAPSLOCK

Again you need to look at how to manage the device - these settings can be turned off already & you can edit the 'suggestions' too.
Settings > General > Keyboards > turn Auto-Correction Off.
Sadly you cannot disable autocorrect temporarily, so it's all or nothing.

Unwanted 2nd tab opens when start Firefox or go home on Firefox.

recently a second tab opens when I start Firefox or when I click on the Home tab. I uninstalled/reinstalled Firefox. The second tab is a photo of Anne Paquin. I have never clicked on a file of her photo. how do i get rid of the photo. it is annoying.

To set the '''Home page''' to your choice:
'''Tools > Options > General''' see if you have two web pages for your home key.
The easiest way to fix would be to bring up only the page that you want open as the only tab then
# '''When Firefox starts''': Show my home page
# '''Home page:''' (verify you have the correct page)
# click on "Use Current Pages" button

Press the Power button for about 10 seconds to shutdown the computer. Wait a couple of minutes then restart. If it restarts OK, then immediately repair the hard drive:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.

I cannot open a new tab using the + or Ctrl T or from the file menu. The only way to open a new tab is to click a link. How do I fix this?

The only way to open a new tab is to click a link like in an email, or right click to tell it to open a new tab. When I click the + or Ctrl T nothing happens.

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

Book icon not opening when clicked

I have an odd problem here.
In my Contents tab on the left side, I have eight Book icons
that, when clicked, open to reveal the Help topics inside them-
just like any normal RoboHelp project would work. However, the very
last Book icon in the list does not open when clicked. I checked
the original file and all of the help topics are under the Book
like they should be. When I compile the file and do a View Primary
Layout, this last Book icon opens correctly. The problem only
occurs once the project is built into the software I'm doing the
Help for. When I move the Book icon up in the list (so it's not the
last one anymore) it works correctly. But then the Book icon that
becomes the last icon doesn't open when clicked. So whichever Book
icon is last in the list doesn't open when clicked. Anyone have any
clue what would cause this? Thanks alot.

Hi Scott45 and welcome to the RH community.
Have you tried deleting the book and adding it again? Also
you can open the project's .HHC file in Notepad (or something
similar) and check that the relevant TOC entry is displayed
correctly there.

[BUG FIXED, see "EDIT 2" at the end of my post]
I'm on Firefox 3.6.21, and I got this problem today after a Greasemonkey update (To version 0.9.10, apparently).
Disabling Greasemonkey solved the problem, and re-enabling it reproduced the problem (middle-clicking links to open in new tab did not work, merely highlighted the link).
I should also note that while Greasemonkey was enabled and the bug was affecting me, Ctrl+Click to open links in new tabs was also broken.
I hope this helps!
EDIT: It appears this is a known incompatibility/conflict bug between current versions of Greasemonkey and Tab Mix Plus. Read more here:
https://github.com/greasemonkey/greasemonkey/issues/1406
EDIT 2: GREASEMONKEY HAS NOW BEEN UPDATED with a workaround to fix the problem. Go to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/versions/ to install the update manually. It hasn't been reviewed by Mozilla yet, so it won't be an automatic update for another day or two. All credit to "cannonfodder" below for noticing this; please mark his post as helpful!

IMovie shows up in Mission Control, but doesn't open when clicked.

Can't open iMovie. iMovie shows up in Mission Control, but doesn't open when clicked. It just disappears up in the top left corner of the screen. The controls on the top of the screen (like; iMovie, File, Edit, View, Text, Share, etc) are al there, and they seem to work, but the window just won't show up.
It happened after installing Mountain Lion on my Macbook Pro.
Any ideas?

Disable screen saver. Restart.

In FF 4.0, how do I set the Tree-Style Tabs extention to keep tabs open when I exit (like it did up through FF 4b11)??

In FF 3.5 through 4.0b11, the Tree-style Tabs extension kept tabs open when I exited so that when I re-opened the program, all tabs re-opened at the same time. Now, every time I return ot the program, I have to re-load all of the tabs I use on a daily basis.

Hi,
I'm using the Tree Style Tab and love it.
However, I was wondering if there's a way to collapse/expand the tab sidebar using a keyboard shortcut.
Ideas, anyone?

Desktop icons wont open when clicked on

Hi to all Happy New Year just installed Leopard on both of my computers- on Macbook -desktop icons open when clicked on but not on my Imac computer- tried restarting numerous time any suggestions. Any thoughts. Kevin

I have a friend that has the same problem. Seems related to plugging in an external monitor. When she unplugs, her Desktop icons are unresponsive and can't be clicked on. In the Terminal I issue:
killall Finder
and that temporarily fixes the problem. Wondering if there is a permanent fix. Perhaps I'll delete the Finder .plist.
