Need the new tab icon and need to move home page icon

Need what I had on previous versions of Firefox. Need new tab icon next to address bar, it is not under customize. Need to move home page icon to the same place. It is very annoying to have it on the right side the of web page, need to have it on the left side.

You can find the New Tab button showing as a '+' on the Tab bar.<br />
You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab button that shows as a plus sign (+) from the Tab bar on another toolbar and it will become a regular toolbar button like the New Tab button that you have in Firefox 3 versions.<br />
If you can't find the New Tab button then click the "Restore Default Set" button in the Customize window.<br />
If you want the New Tab button at the far right end of the Tab bar then place a flexible space to the left of it.

  • New tab doesn't open as my home page

    I have Google as my home page. When I click the + button to open a new tab, it doesn't load my home page.

    It is in the search bar, but I want it in the search box - the one on the middle of the screen in the google home page.
    If I could add 4 tabspaces to the command to automatically tab to the correct place it would work!!

  • After opening a new tab, when I click on my home page (the house icon), it duplicates and opens a second window...it's never done this before?

    I just installed Firefox on a new laptop. Google is my home page. My opening tab is always Google. But, when I open a New Tab, it doesn't open in Google. So, I've always clicked on the house icon to take me straight to Google. Now when I do, TWO tabs open in Google. (it duplicates)

    I tried all of the above, I've reinstalled Firefox and I've checked if value set to 3 in browser.link.open_newwindow which it is, but the problem still happens.
    Regarding what you say re what is written in the article Tab preferences and settings, I understand what this means. However I am using FireFox in my work. I have a CRM where I constantly click on a button that automatically opens my order system on a new tab, or email templates in a new tab etc. The tab opens next to the tab I am currently on. However ever since I was prompted to Refresh Firefox earlier, it now opens these in a new window. Therefore the size of these pages has nothing to do with it, as this was not a problem before.
    This is irritating, as no I have to go from one window to another, and where I have multiple tabs open it is making my life difficult.
    Not happy!

  • Opening a new tab by right clicking from Facebook home page

    Whenever I right click and go to a new tab I get a messed up page. This happens only on Facebook when helping friends or viewing something from a post. It only happens on Firefox, tried it on IE plus on 2 more computers. Also when I am playing a game...ie FV and wish to post for help...the box just sets there showing it working but never opens fully so I can post.
    Will be glad to send a copy of what the page looks like when I open a new tab if you need it.

    here is what the page looks like when I open a new tab...is there anything I can do to fix this...Thank You

  • How do I get a new tab to automatically open as my home page instead of a blank one?

    I want to click on the tab button and have my home page appear in the new tab instead of a blank page. Is this possible and, if so, how is it done?

    You can also middle-click the Home button, just like any other link. Middle-click and a Ctrl left click also works for some right-click context menu items like View Image and the list that opens with a right click on the Back and Forward button.

  • How do I set new tabs to open up with my home page?

    When I open up a new tab the screen says "You have opened up a new Tab"....Informative but not particularly helpful... Can I set it so the new tab opens up on the google home page?

    Thanks the-edmeister. Your solution worked a treat. I had a problem with the AVG toolbar overwriting this but once I turned the AVG search bar off it was perfect. Great job. Thanks

  • How may I move home page icon?

    I just installed new Firefox 4.0 to replace past version. The home page icon is now at the very right side of the page, far from all other dropodowns. and very inconvenient. Can it be moved to a left side location?

    # Right-click on a toolbar and select Customize, this will open the customize toolbar dialog.
    # With the customize toolbar dialog on display, you can drag and drop icons and place them where you want, then click on Done.

  • When I try to access an active link from a website (usually a pdf file), the new tab opens and is labeled correctly; the word "done" appears at the bottom; but the page does not open or download. The same problem does not occur with Chrome.

    Example: on the home page of the website http://www.dot.ri.gov
    there is an active link entitled "Overview of all Iway changes - Fall 2010"
    Clicking on it exposes the following url:
    http://www.dot.ri.gov/documents/iway/Iway_Changes_Fall2010.pdf
    However, the tab remains blank, even though it says "Done" in the bottom left corner.
    When I use Google Chrome as a browser, I have no problem opening that url.
    This has occurred numerous times over the past several days on several different sites--and usually the link that will not open is a pdf file.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • I am not able to open a new tab manually. I tried clicking on the new tab button and going to File and clicking on New Tab. This has been the case since 8 PM on 2/10/2011.

    I have been using Mozilla for about 4 years and never had any problems in opening a new tab manually. But since yesterday, I am not able to do so. I even uninstalled Firefox and then re installed it. No change.

    Thanks, I uninstalled the Ask toolbar and now 'new tab' works

  • When I open a new tab it doesnt bring up my home page. I checked in tools under options and then clicked on General and it shows my home page. What can I do to get it to open with my home page?

    Just need to answer the question above it gives perfect detail to my problem.

    A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
    If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    You can middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
    You can use an extension to set which page to open in a new tab:
    *NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    *My Homepage: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/my-homepage/

  • Why does add-ons Manager create a new tab every time I go to home page?

    When I start Firefox my home page tab shows up along with an add-ons Manager tab and a plus sign for new tab. Every time I go to a web site and then return to my home page ANOTHER add-ons Manager tab shows up. This apparently will go on forever. I have had as many as 20 add-ons Manager tabs showing. The only way to eliminate them is to stop Firefox and then restart. Then it starts all over again. What is causing this?
    I'm running the latest version of Firefox and Windows 8.1 on a Dell Inspiron with 8G's of memory and a 1T hard drive.
    Please help.

    Can you post back here a screenshot from this issue?

  • New 1.1.3 feature to move home-screen icons to second page stops working

    The cool new iPhone 1.1.3 update feature whereby you touch a home-screen icon for a second or so, and can then customize it's location, by moving it around, including moving to a second home page screen stopped working.
    I can still customize the position of icons within a particular home screen, but I can no longer move them from home screen to home screen.
    There is a work around, I can shuffle the icon down on to the main icon bar at the bottom, then shift to the second screen, then move the icon onto the second screen from the icon bar at the bottom.
    The problem was triggered after I had populated some icons onto a second home screen page, then subsequently removed all icons from the second page - after the number of icons on the second page had hit zero, I couldn't then move more icons back onto it.
    Seems like a minor bug - that can be worked around, by shuffling icons down to the button of the screen via the icon bar, but something that should be fixed.
    I have not yet tried a cold-reboot, or a system restore on iTunes.

    FYI - reboot didn't fix it - I'll do a system restore over the weekend - no doubt that will reset its state sufficiently and the problem will go away. Will be interesting to see if it returns.

  • I am downloading Firefox but it does not engage. i had a prior version which worked fine but the new version is not even showing a home page.

    I downloaded Firefox but it will not start. It has not opened. I do not get a home page from Firefox. I do have an icon from a prior version of Firefox but when I click it, the system takes me to MSN.com home page.

    On2CO,  I'm glad you have reached out to us today. Thank you so much for the very detail description on what is going on with the device. Sounds like there might be an issue with an application that might be causing these issues. The reason I say that is, when the phone is in Safe Mode you are able to access the Settings screens with no issues. While in Safe Mode that does block all 3rd party applications from running on the phone. I would suggest on trying to back up the device and perform a factory reset: http://spr.ly/6-182Vuo (you would want to make sure to uncheck Automatic Restore in step 3). Once the reset is complete try to see if you can get into Settings. Then, I would recommend on adding 3rd party applications back on to the device one by one to see if we can find what app might be causing this issue.
