Music skipping when a webpage is loading up or when I open a new tab

This has been happeing for about 3 weeks. Never had this problem before.
So when I open a new webpage it'll skips, it's gets stuck for about 2 seconds. Just really annoying.
Don't know how to fix this. Don't know if it's to do with the lastest Safari or iTunes update.
Any help would be great. Thanks
P.S. Also I can't copy an image into iTunes. It just goes blank so I have to drag it. When I do that the picture is always stuck on the cursor and the only way to get rid of it is to go back on the page the picture originally came from.

I have started using Roboform Lite 2.0.0, after Roboform it takes to much time to open Firefox and when i open a new tab, until the tab is fully loaded, Firefox is not responding. Please help.

After installing Roboform 2.0.0;
Starting Firefox started to take too much time.
When i open a new tab, until the tab is fully loaded and Roboform realizes which website it is, Firefox does not respond.
When i tell Roboform to fill the username and password fields in a tab, until Roboform submits Firefox does not respond.
I mean, as if Roboform is not working background and Firefox cannot work multithread because of it. When i navigate from one tab to another, Roboform is also checking the tab and meanwhile Firefox is waiting for Roboform to finish its work.
Please help me about this problem.

How can I set or reset the page that is loaded when I open a new tab using Ctrl t ?? by

I recently downloaded a program that has, as an undesired additional action, apprently setup Yahoo as the page that opens by default when I open a new tab using <Ctrl> <t> (or the <+> symbol on the tab bar). This is aggravating to me, particularly as I have not been able to find a way to stop it occurring.
I expect that it is buried somewhere in my profile, but I also have not found a way to explore or edit the contents of my profile.
There is a JScript script file called "user" in ...\profiles\4g4vpust.default that I suspect is associated with the behaviour, but renaming it achieved nothing.
Prior to this, my new tabs used to open as blank pages, i.e. did not load any URL and I was happy with that. How can I get back to that state?

Did it add the freeze net assistant add-on? That add-on is known to do this. If you have that add-on you can uninstall it Firefox should revert to the default behavior.
If you do not have that add-on, another add-on will be causing this, you can use the procedure in the following link to identify what one - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

New tabs are not updating the names of the sites they have loaded. When I open a new tab and load a site, the tab simply stays named "New Tab". When I open a link in a new window, it shows "Connecting..." even while its fully loaded.

Firefox update 23.0.1, no longer automatically highlights the address bar content when I open a new tab.

The above. When I opened a new tab in the past, before the new update, firefox would automatically highlight the text in the address bar, and I could simply start typing from there the address of the site I wanted. I could quickly get to anywhere I wanted in less than a second. Now, I have to drag and click into the address bar every time. I installed an add-on called "custom newtab" but it just slows me down further due to a lag between the opening of a new tab, and the add-on kicking in and highlighting the address bar content.
What happens is this:
Click "new tab"
New tab opens blank and the text appears highlighted "google.co.uk" for about a quarter second.
Page loads Google and the highlighted text becomes unhighlighted for another quarter second.
Add-on kicks in and highlights the text "google.co.uk" meanwhile I've already begun typing and end up losing the first part of the words, sending me to random web pages and searches.
Why did this change?! Fix it please!

YES!! Thank you jscher2000! You sir are a legend. Thanks for this, changed the newtaburl in about:config, totally worked. Nope, never saw it happening! Speedy machine this one :P Yep, that change completely sorted the issue, just opened about 741 new tabs through the shortcut on my mouse just to celebrate. Thanks guys who helped, no thanks those who didn't.

I have all tabs set to open with Google search, but when I open a new tab and start typing, the letters appear in the address bar and not the Google search bar. It didn't used to be like this!

Firefox 9.01; Windows 7 64 bit;
One of my set of home pages is the basic Google search page. When I open this, I can immediately start typing and the words appear in the Google search box.
If however I open a new tab (white cross far right of tab bar) and start typing, the words appear in the address bar, not in the Google search box. Of course once I click in the search box I can carry on: but I'd like to make it start there as it does with the homepage.

If you want a specific webpage (like the Google page) to always open when you open a New Tab, you can use the following add-on to Open New Tabs with your Favorite Pages:
-> NewTabURL 2.2.3
* https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
* NewTabURL will not work until you set the page that you want to open in the Options for it.
* click Add-ons > Extensions, click Options next to NewTabURL.
Check and tell if its working.
Not related to your problem but do the following:

I restored my most used sites page through troubleshooting but then downloaded stylish and the alt. browser came back when i open a new tab. Help?

I downloaded some dodgy software and having cleared it up it seems to have installed an alternative browser (delta?) and toolbar to my firefox. I've uninstalled the toolbar, but when i open a new tab, instead of my most used pages, it came up with the delta browser. So I followed the instructions on here and troubleshooted and restored the default settings of firefox. This worked until I re-installed the add on Stylish to customise webpages, and now it seems to have come back. Having uninstalled stylish it hasn't changed. Can i not use stylish now, or is there a way of my completely getting rid of this delta, enabling me to use the add on as before?

Note that your System Details List shows multiple Flash plugins.
# Shockwave Flash 11.8 r800
# Shockwave Flash 11.7 r700
You can check the Flash player installation folder for multiple Flash player plugins and remove older version(s) of the plugin (NPSWF32).
*(32 bit Windows) C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\
*(64 bit Windows) C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\
You can find the installation path of all plugins on the about:plugins page. 
There is no need to toggle the plugin.expose_full_path pref to true in Firefox 22 and later, so leave this pref set to false.

Why does Yahoo Search appear when I open a new tab, when Google is my default homepage?

Ever since I upgraded to 4.0, when I open a new tab the yahoo search page appears, but my homepage is www.google.com.
I have three tabs open at all times on my main foxfire window and always ask to restore them: Yahoo mail (my account), www.imdb.com, and http://www.timeanddate.com/calendar/. Anytime I open a new tab http://search.yahoo.com/?fr=freeze&type=W3i_NA,132,3_6,Tab%20Search,20110104,6894,0,16,0 appears, but my default homepage is set to www.google.com.
Interestingly, when I open a new window for firefox my default homepage of www.google.com appears, but http://search.yahoo.com/?fr=freeze&type=W3i_NA,132,3_6,Tab%20Search,20110104,6894,0,16,0 appears when I open new tabs.
Why????
Very annoying, but the highest of priorities.
Thanks.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in [[Safe mode]]:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

How do I disable the "New Tab opened" button that appears for 3secs when I open a new tab?

Dear Helpful Open Source people.
I would like to disable the "New Tab opened" that appears for 3secs when I open a new tab?
I usually open tabs from a search engine's results page expecting the links to be of varying quality. This means that it is efficient to open several links from that page and review and close them sequentially later. A reality of the output of search engines is that your 1st link is sedom the one you want.
This button clutters an already small phone screen. I've hardly the space to click outside it and move on often clicking it by accident. Waiting prevents me scrolling to click the next link for 3 seconds or worse when I scroll prematurely I accidentally click it and jump to that Tab prematurely. I don't need to be told what I just did. I know... There is a perfectly functional tabs button in Firefox Android that let's me jump to my new tab in less than second with 2 presses when I wish to do so.
I appreciate that it's "only" 3 seconds and a 1st world problem, but browsers and OS designers aspire to fast customisable function. Maybe there's a way to get rid of this button?
The button is shown in section 3 of "Open a Link in a New Tab" in this article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/using-tabs-firefox-android
PS. Mozilla - great work with the Sync function keep developing!!

For some reason, Android calls that little notification bar a "toast" so that's the new tab toast. It was added in Firefox 12.
I can't see any preference to suppress it, so I think that would require filing a new bug (request for enhancement). If you feel strongly, I think you are the best person to file it.

When I open a new tab it does not bring up my homepage. It brings up another sites search engine page.

When I click on the new tab button, a small cross, it opens the new tab, but displays another sites search page, not my homepage. I cannot find where to tell it to open my homepage on all new tabs that are opened from the tab bar.

The basic Firefox build has always opened a blank page when you open a new tab.
Maybe some add-on you installed modified that feature of Firefox which now opens all tabs in a different page. Here's what you will need to do.
Open Firefox -> go to Help Menu -> select "Restart with Add-ons Disabled"
Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. The tabs will now be opening in a blank page. You can Enable the add-ons again and check if its working properly.

How do I get the 9 most popular sites I visit to pop up when I open a new tab (Firefox 5.0 deleted this for me)?

I just recently downloaded Firefox 5.0 and it appears that they have changed or deleted one of my favorite features. It used to be that when I opened a new tab it would displayed like 9 of my most visited sites. Is this still possible with Firefox 5.0 or is it permanently deleted? If it is possible, how do I alter the settings to get this feature back? Thank you.

As far as I know, this has never been a feature of Firefox's core. Do you have an addon such as New Tab JumpStart or New Tab King that gave you this feature in Firefox 4? It's possible that whatever addon gave you this feature before hasn't been updated to work with Firefox 5. If you don't want to wait for that addon to update, you could try either of the addons I mentioned above.

When I open a new tab, my pins do not show up, and I cannot find the square with the 9 boxes to turn it on at the top, what do I do

When I open a new tab, the page is blank, and I cannot view my pins. I tried searching for the box with the 9 squares in it at the top of the screen to turn it back on, but it does not show up. How do I get my pins back?

Hello,
First go to '''Tools''' >> '''Options''' >> '''Privacy''' >> '''Firefox will''' change to '''Remember history''', then go to '''about:config''' and search for '''browser.newtab.url''' change its value to '''about:newtab'''.

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
An app changed it to some other search engine, before installing the app, I the tab that would open was the homepage I set.
In my case it is Google, and I want my new tabs to open on Google like they did before the installation.
thank you,
Asaf Privman.

You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at one of these extensions:
* NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
* New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

Updated Firefox, now when I open a new tab, there is two seperate google search bars; how do I get rid of the unnecessary search bar?

I updated Firefox, and after I restarted it, when I opened a new tab, I found that I now had two Google search bars: one next to where you type web addresses, and one right above my pinned sites (or my frequently visited sites). I'm just trying to:
1. Figure out why it is necessary to have two of the pretty much identically useful search bars when I really only need one (or can physically type Google in)
and
2. How do I get rid of the unnecessary second Google search bar above my frequently visited and therefore pinned sites.
If you have any ideas of how to remove this annoying addition, I would appreciate it.

I am guessing that you installed an extension, related to "new tab", which added the first search bar. Firefox 31 in includes a search bar for the "new tab" page; so now you have two.
Take a look at that extension (Options or Preferences) to see how to disable ones of those 2 search bars. Or see if an update has been released for that extension, specifically for Firefox 31, with an option to disable the search bar.

I get a blank page when I open a new tab and would lie to have the thumbnails back - HOW?

Firefox ver. 16.0.2
Win 7
I have tried the suggestions I find on the web.
Your support page says:
"The Firefox New Tab page shows pictures of the sites you visit frequently. Sometimes, some or all of these images are not displayed. We'll explain why that happens and how to get them back when it's possible."
No I don't get any pictures at all when I open a new tab - It's blank, but I click on the following link:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thumbnails-on-new-tab-page-are-missing
I click on the link to follow instructions and end up here:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites
I click on this link: "The images of my top sites are gone - how do I get them back?"
and end up here:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites#w_the-images-of-my-top-sites-are-gone-how-do-i-get-them-back
and end up here:
See The thumbnails on the new tab page are missing - how to get them back.
I click on the link for information and end up..... were I started.
So - Could someone be nice and explain how I get the thumbnails back?!
Because I refuse to use IE, but considering Opera..... Please advice!

You can change this in Firefox's about:config preferences editor.
(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)''
about:newtab
''(ii) Blank tab''
about:blank
''(iii) Built-in Firefox home page''
about:home
''(iv) Any other page''
full URL to the page
Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?

How can I make firefox give the focus (the cursor) to the address bar when I open a new window - as it does when I open a new tab (to about:blank)?

When I open a new tab using CTRL-T, the address/awesome bar has the focus.
When I open a new window using CTRL-N, it does not.
Can the behaviours be made consistent via setting a configuration option or key?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello wodow, please check it in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode#firefox:linux:fx27 safe mode], do you have the same behaviour ? DO NOT reset, select "Start in Safe Mode".
thank you
