Middle clicking/Ctrl+clicking on links in Firefox doesn't open a new tab; it does nothing. Middle clicking my bookmarks opens them in a new tab, however.

Middle clicking works properly otherwise.
This started happening since I upgraded to Firefox 3.6.22.

Never mind, the solution has been posted here:

When I click on an email link in Firefox, I get a message in the far left corner of my screen that says "mail to:email address". Outlook doesn't open up like it does in Internet Explorer. I've set Outlook as my default email in Windows 7.

Why, when I click on an email link in Firefox 4, GMail hijacks my browser instead of opening Thunderbird??

Suddenly, anytime I click on an email link in Firefox 4, Gmail opens a popup window. This does not happen if I click an email link in IE 8.0 or Google Chrome. In Tools > Options > Applications, Thunderbird is set as my default in Firefox 4. If I go to Start > Control Panel > Internet Options, Thunderbird is the default email client as well. Clearing cookies and settings did not resolve this problem. What is going on?

I have the same problem, and I also wondered if Google toolbar has anything to do with it. There GMAIL was set as the default mail application at first. I have removed that setting, but Firefox 4.0.1 continues to use GMAIL instead of Outlook which is my selection for mailto handling.

Does Firefox has this option (which I may not know) to click on my bookmark, link, etc. where to open a new tab without doing this right-click, it is aggravating?

Hello, I would like to use Firefox as my default browser, but the reason I still use the old Netscape Navigator is that that clicking on my bookmarks Firefox is not opening new tab. Does Firefox has this option (which I may not know) to click on my bookmark, link, etc. where to open a new tab without doing this right-click, it is aggravating?

Hi,
2 things:
1. Assuming your script is original - it is not asking for a TXT file till it is found in expected location. You can choose between 2 solutions:
to remove FindChangeList.txt from FindChangeSupport folder ==> script will ask for another file
to override this file by your query ==> script will not ask but execute your query
2. You can see greyed TXT files in Script Panel since this panel shows executable files (script's formats)

PRE 9--clicking on buttons in New Project screen does nothing

This is strange. PRE 9 had been working fine. Now, when I launch the program and the New Project window comes up asking me to type in a name, indicate where it is being saved to and to change whatever settings I must, I cannot do any of these. I cannot type in a name and clicking on the buttons does nothing. When I hover the cursor over the buttons, the color shade changes as if everything is active but nothing happens when I click on the button.
I uninstalled and reinstalled four times.
Has anyone seen this before?
Thank you very much.

FF 14.0.1: Bookmark with java-script function to build and open URL. Works unless clicked when already in a new blank tab, then does nothing. Why?

On 14.0.1 I have a bookmark which calls a java script function to prompt for input, build and call a dynamic URL. This has worked fine until last update of FF. It works fine if I right click and select Open in a New Tab, or new window. It works fine if I am in any other website and click it. It only does not work, if I open a new blank tab or window, and then click it from inside that new tab. Then it does nothing. Same happens whether the "New tab Page" is displayed or not. Same happens in safe mode.
Bookmark properties:
javascript:void(str=prompt(%22Document%20Number:%22,%22%22));if(str){location.href=%22https://somecompany.com/oip/faces/secure/km/DocumentDisplay.jspx?id=%22+escape(str).split(%22%20%22).join(%22+%22);}

I searched for a recent thread on this but couldn't find it.
This may be the result of a security restriction on some "about" pages such as about:home and about:newtab.
Did you blank the new tab page using the little button or did you actually change the new tab page to about:blank? In case you need steps for testing:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter the desired value:
''(i) Page thumbnails (default)''
browser.newtab.url = about:newtab
''(ii) Blank tab''
browser.newtab.url = about:blank
''(iii) Built-in Firefox home page''
browser.newtab.url = about:home
''(iv) Any other page''
browser.newtab.url = full URL to the page

Unable to sign into icloud. Accepts username & password but does nothing when clicking on arrow.

I am trying to sign into icloud on my pc. It will let me enter my username and password but does nothing when I click the arrow to sign in. Also, I can't select the "keep me signed in" box. When I click on either it does nothing.

I would suggest to restore Apple TV again to factory settings.

Firefox doesn't allow me to email a webpage by right-clicking anymore - Why?

I used to be able to right-click on a webpage, and email the page. Then, something changed, and when I right-clicked, that option was not immediately available. Instead, I had to right-click, hover over a main category that then offered me two options, once of which was emailing the webpage through Yahoo. When I did that, the email would fill with the link, but a lot of junk about Yahoo, too.
Now, when I right-click just two weeks later, option is completely gone. So, now, I cannot email a webpage just be right-clicking. I have to copy the link, open an email, and paste the link. What happened, and can I get back?

What does one do when they get "secure link to itunes store has failed." got this while doing diagnostics test. clicked on help but just got a blank white window. original problem stems from inability to access the itunes store.

I got "secure link to itunes store failed" during a diagnostic test. unable to access itunes store and nothing i do works.

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Clicking an e-mail link in Safari doesn't open default mail client

Eudora has been my default mailer for many years. Yet after the last Safari update a few days ago, the browser suddenly ignores Eudora's default status although it is clearly checked in Eudora's preferences. Instead, Safari thinks Mail is my default mailer. So I dutifully open Mail--I never use it--and check its preferences, which mysteriously assign it as default mailer. I change that setting to Eudora. And the next time I try to click an email link in Safari, Mail pops up again as the default mailer. If I check both email client preferences at that point, both are still set to be my default mailer even though I changed Mail to NOT be so.
How do I make Safari/Mail stop overriding my setting of Eudora as default mailer?

HI,
Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file.
Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Now launch Safari. If you can set the default Mail app, move the .plist file to the Trash.
Also, from the Safari menu bar click Safari / Empty Cache.

When did you publish to store? It might just be a matter of waiting for it to show up:

When I click on the arrow to go to the next image in a gallery, it does nothing.

When viewing pictures in a gallery (on a website that I have used nearly every day for the last few years), it doesn't advance to the next image when I click on the arrow that should take me to the next image. It works with other browsers, but I prefer Firefox.
