Mac OS 10.9 Maverick -- no "open in new window" option

Upgraded to the new Mac 10.9 Maverick and now there are no "open folder in new window" option, or at least it doesn't work. Please advise. Thanks!

What doesn't work? Please explain what it does.
If I right-click on a folder, then hold down Option, I can choose Open folder in New Window, and that does happen.
If you hold down command and double-click, it will open in a new Tab instead of opening the folder in the same window.
With more than a single tab,
If you hold down cmd-opt and double-click, it will open the folder in a new window.
Without other tabs, it closes the original window just like holding down Option.

How do I open a new window (cmd + N) on the current page (url) NOT my homepage?

Before I updated to firefox 28, I was able to hit cmd + N and it would open a new window with the exact same webpage I was on. Now it opens a new window with my homepage. I'm assuming I had an add-on or extension, but I am desperate to be able to do this again. Ideas?

This is an oversight by the developers of the latest FireFox revision: a great shame, as the overall feel of the browser has patently been improved.
Xabolcs has come up with a nice fudging idea; if it were to work; but sadly it doesn't for me....
As mentioned by MGprof, the latest version of FireFox (May'14) now opens one's "homepage" instead of a new blank window.
As my "homepage" is almost a dozen tabs; this is worse than useless. It's like starting FireFox again; and then having to close a whole string of unwanted tabs!
To compound my frustration, the "move to a new window" option disappeared on another recent FireFox "upgrade"; but I managed to get round that by copying an url from a tab, then opening a new blank window, to paste the url into.
So, is there any possible way to open a new window in this latest version of FireFox?
I just want to be able to open a new FireFox window; and I'd be happy with it being either blank, or duplicating the url of a currently-showing tab.
This would allow view of one trimmed-size webpage in front of another one, showing in a selected tab in my normal-use multi-tab window: useful when comparing complex images, for example.
I have just installed the above-recommended "duplicate-2-window"; but can't make it work for me.
I've assumed "no-restart-necessary" claim is correct; but using cntrl+N, I now get a new blank TAB!
I'll try rebooting next, and post here again if that improves the situation; but don't hold your breath!
Meanwhile, if the developers are watching out for feedback..................................... please sort this, by putting back the "open a new window" option: I do NOT want to have to use Gugl-Krohm!

WebDynpro ABAP iView not opening in new window

Hi,
   I have created an iView for a WebDynpro ABAP application and I am having a link in a home page from where the iView should open in a new page. I have set the properties "Launch in new Window" and "Show open in new window option" of the iView but still it doesn't open up in a new window.
    Can someone suggest me what's going wrong?
    Will reward points for helpful answer.
Regards
Mukesh

Hi Volker,
   Thanks for your reply.
   I think, I have set the properties of the iView right. I have tried with all the options for the property "Launch in new window" property of the iView but it didn't work.
   "By home page framework" I mean that the link of the iView in portal has been created using the "Home page framework" i.e. from "SPRO" transaction in the backend.
   Please let me know if you need any other input from me.
Regards
Mukesh

Opening a link using "open link in new window" does not work. I can only use "open in new tab" option. Is this normal with the Firefox 4?

I really don't have any more info. When I upgraded my Firefox to the latest version I have noticed that I can 't use this Open in new window option any more. I have reinstalled the software using its US English version( first time I have chosen the UK English version) but to no avail.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

JSP Dynpage iView 'Open in New Window' losses session data

Hi All,
I have a JSP Dynpage that displays some position holder information based on a position id passed in by the URL query string. The problem that I am trying to solve is to allow the user to open the iView in its own window by using the 'Open in New Window' option from the button in the upper right of the iView title bar. When this happens the URL query string is no longer available so the iView has problems. My solution is to store the position id in the session object then read from that session object when the query string is not available - when opening in a new window.
But what is happening is that the position id saved in the session object is no longer there when the new window opens. I have looked else where on this site but all posts seem to deal with data transfer from JSP Dynpage to the JSP page. This issue is dealing with a page getting re-opened in a new page (browswer).
I can't seem to get the session object to work between JSP Dynpages at all, I would think that the data put into the session would stay there untill either cleared or the session ends. Am I missing some configuration settings? I have included some of the key code below.
// GET THE POSITION ID FROM THE URL QUERY STRING
String PosId;
PosId = request.getParameter("CKey");
if (PosId == null)
 myBean.testing = (String) request.getComponentSession().getValue("PosId");
else
 PosId = PosId.substring(6, 14);
 request.getComponentSession().putValue("PosId", PosId);
 myBean.testing = "POSID:" + PosId;
Thanks for all ideas and help.

Event triggered by iView Opening in New Window

Hi Portal Developers,
I'm trying to write an iView will exist as an invisible iView on the default framework page and listen for the event of an iView opening a new window. However, I can't find an event that distinguishes between an iView opening in a new window or an iView opening in the existing content area.
For example, as a test to capture the event that is occurring, I have the following block of javascript that displays a message when a user navigates around in the Portal using some different Portal events.
<script language ="JavaScript">
EPCM.subscribeEvent("urn:com.sapportals:navigation", "*", onNewWindow);
EPCM.subscribeEvent "urn:com.sapportals.portal:browser", "*", onNewWindow);
function onNewWindow( eventObj) {
"Got an Event from: " + eventObj.eventName);}
</script>
All this returns when a I click on an iView that opens in a new window is "Navigate", which is no different from when an iView is clicked that does not open in a new window. I've looked through the SAP-delivered javascript files and I've also done an HTTP Trace hoping to find exactly what is happening when an iView is launched in a new window.
A trace I ran indicates that the js13_spcf.js file is called when an iView is launched in a new window. In this file, I see that there is a "mode" parameter that is passed to the "Navigate" event that I'm subscribing too. For the Open in New Window option, this seems to be set to a value of 2, which makes sense. Is there anyway I can read this "Mode" value of the event that is raised as I subscribe to the event from my iView? Any other suggestions are welcome as well!
Thanks!
Matt

Hi Matt,
For an iView opening in a new window to communicate with an iView on the default framework, a "bridge" needs to exist.
That's where EPCMPROXY from epcfproxy.js comes into play.
In the iView that is opening up in a new window, you can raise an event such as,
var win_id = EPCMPROXY.getUniqueWindowId();
EPCMPROXY.raiseEvent("urn:com.sapportals.portal:browser", "", "", win_id);
Hope it helps,

Is there a way to open a new window from the "Go" menu in Mavericks?

Before Mavericks, I was able to go from the Finder to the top menu "Go" -> "Utilities", or Applications or Home… and a new window would open.
Now I have to manually open a new window to avoid loosing my existing window.

Is there a way to open a new window from the "Go" menu?
First, as others have already stated.....make sure the checkbox is deselected for "open folders in tabs instead of windows" in Finder Preferences.
If you're like me and don't like tabs very much, there is a way to make folders always open in windows with a simple click (I'm using Mavericks 10.9.5). Go to a root folder (for example, the Documents Folder), open it, and select View > Hide Toolbar, then all folders within that root folder will open in a new window.
As an alternative method, any folder can be opened in a new window by holding down either Command Key while clicking the folder. But sooner or later you will forget to hold down that key, and then clicking on a folder will open in a tab (which will automatically resize the window and cause much aggravation).
The Hide Toolbar trick will also work with any folder present on the Desktop. It will make all folders inside that folder open in new windows.
To make the Applications Folder open in a new window when opening it from the menu bar at the top of the screen, you will have to open the main hard drive folder and use the Hide Toolbar trick. This will cause all folders inside it to open in new windows.
Hope this helps.

I can't open a new window in Firefox 4 on my mac. Was working great. I installed new mac firmware and restarted, probably without closing Firefox properly. Now window won't open.

Hi:
As noted above, Firefox won't open a new window. I restarted machine without closing Firefox. Now, I get the Firefox menu bar but it won't open a window. I'm using mac, with OS X 10.6

Firefox doesn't install new versions of plugins, but Flash may update itself automatically. 
You are still one version behind on Flash, current is Flash 10.1 r85 
If the Flash player didn't update properly then you need to download the full version and run the installer as Administrator (right-click: Run as ...)
Flash Global Notifications Settings Panel:

You are more versions behind on Java updates with having Java 6 U11, current is 6 U22.

I'm using FF for Mac 3.6.13 and everytime I open a new window or tab the image of what I see is tiny which requires me to click Command + to enlarge it. The actual page is normal size, but its the image of the page that opens tiny.

I'm using FF for Mac 3.6.13 and every time I open a new window or tab the image of what I see is tiny which then requires me to click Command + to enlarge it about 4 or 5 times. The actual page is normal size, but its the image (what I see) of the page that is tiny.

Thanks but Command 0 on a Mac only makes a temporary change to that one page. The link you provided doesn't show how to make a permanent change. Do you know how to permanently change this so I don't have to do it to every new page?
Thank you.

Firefox not Mac OSX Spaces friendly - There is no right click option to open a new window in the curent space.

Other browsers (Safari and Chrome) allow you to open a new window in the current space by right clicking the dock icon and choosing 'new window'. Firefox does not have this option in the right click. You must go to the other space that already has firefox open, create a new window there, and then drag it to the desired space. Please add the ability to launch a new window in the current space from the dock icon right click menu.

I have gone to the link that you supplied . In the task manager-- ending the entry for Firefox.exec did not resolve the problem.
I located my profile in the start menu In the run tab And entered %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\as instructed.
I received a cannot delete parent file is corrupted or unreadable. I then ran the Chkdsk (check disk )and tried the process again with no improvement . I have uninstalled Firefox, and redownloaded It. Still no improvement. I want my Firefox WHAAAAAAA

I have a Maverick "open in new window" link reference

I have a link reference which appears to have changed itself. Seriously, originally the link sent the viewer to a new page in the same browser window. Now it is opening the link in a new window.
This appears to be the case for the same link on all the pages on the site Im working on.
this is most troublesome as there isnt any readily apparant reason for this behavior.
What can I do to cure this problem?
Thank you.

Unable to open a new window you must first close exsisting firefox process or restart your system. There is no firefox process running why should I receive this error msg?

I closed a Firefox process. Then clicked the FF icon to restart my browser. I received an error message. " Firefox is already running, but not responding. To open a new window you must first close existing Firefox process, or restart your system. However there is no Firefox process running to begin with. I checked the task manager.

It takes Firefox 5-15 seconds to completely close and for the OS to release the processes; it may take longer if you have a Flash animation/video running in one of the tabs. If not waiting long enough is not the problem, you can try the following to determine if an Extension or Plugin might be causing Firefox to hang at exit.
