New Tab Home Page?

Heya folks, is it possible at all to set it so that when i go File > New Tab in Safari, that it opens as my homepage (iGoogle). Ive looked through preferences but cant see anything and i suspect it maybe possible with applescript but have no idea how to do that.
Cheers.
Rowan

Here's the AppleScript code that works on Tiger. — Tom
tell application "Safari"
        my new_Tab()
        set URL of document 1 to "http://www.google.com/ig"
end tell
on new_Tab()
        tell application "Safari" to activate
        tell application "System Events"
                tell process "Safari"
                        click menu item "New Tab" of menu "File" of menu bar 1
                end tell
        end tell
end new_Tab
tell application "System Events" to quit

  • When I click on a bookmark in the listing, nothing happens. If I right click and click on "Open In New Tab" the page loads. I am using version 14.0.1

    Firefox just updated to version 14.0.1. When I clicked on one of my book,marks from the listing, nothing happened. The page did not load. If I right click on the bookmark and choose " Open in a New Tab", the page loads in a new tab. None of my bookmarks will work by simplying clicking on them from the listing.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Tools Options changed from drop-down box to new tab full page. Why?

    Hello,
    Have Windows 7, Firefox Nightly 32.0a1 (2014-05-18) the latest update was a couple of hours ago. Since then, when I go to Tools>Options, instead of the Options menu opening in a drop-down window with General, Tabs, Content, Applications, Privacy, Security, Sync and Advanced at the top, it now opens as a new tab (full page) and of the eight functions, the "Tabs" is missing, the others are down the left side of the page.
    Also since this update, I am having problems with two forums, (both hosted by ProBoards) - the icons for links, video. image etc are missing, the "Like" button doesn't work, I cannot preview my posts, the clickable button/box to return to forum is missing. Others on the forum who use Firefox aren't having problems. I'm thinking it is the update causing these problems because they weren't appearing before.
    Thank you.

    That is the new "Options" display, added in today's Nightly when you go to open Options. '''"Tabs"''' preferences are on the "General" panel.

  • When New Tab Canvas/Page?

    What is the best way to determine when you user has navigated to a new tab canvas/page when the navigation does not occur by clicking on the tab canvas's Tab? For instance, when the user clicks a button item that navigates to a different tab canvas/page I want to disable the tab canvas/page the user came from.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • When I open a new Tab the page defaults to an unwanted page.

    When I open a new Tab the page defaults to: "http://www.somoto.com/139/%7B666DAB7E-0C0D-4161-9E9E-F4170E4A3EB9%7D?s_src=newtab". My homepage is set to something entirely different. Is it possible to change this default to something of my own choosing?

  • New BT Home Page

    Is anyone else finding the New BT Home Page and most others on the site very very slow to load. I’m using a Mac with OS10.9. Safari, the native browser is what I use mostly but Firefox and Google Chrome are almost as bad. I’m having no problems at all with any other site. I’ve done the usual resets and emptied caches etc. Makes no difference. The BTYahoo site is fine. Has anyone else found this.
    I’ve flagged it up on the survey box I keep getting pestered with.

    Hi Dode
       I have just posted a similar question. And the answer is yes I am having the same problem and I am operating on a iMac
    OS X 10.9. It seems to me, looking at your post replies that they are all operating with Microsoft. 
       From what I have found out BT seem to be more Microsoft friendly than Macintosh. You can't even download "Desk Top Help" because its not Mac supported.

  • Firefox is not opening the "Show All History" Window, images are not loading and part of the new tab default page is not loading up

    For about two days now Firefox has been unable to load up images, even in its menus, and the menu buttons do not open up their corresponding windows.
    The page that comes up when opening a new tab has the first three webpages displayed, but the second three underneath are blank and the boxes are cut off.
    Things like youtube work fine. What could be the problem?

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

  • Strange lines are apearing when I open new page in new tab. They are on white page (new tab) before page I wanted shows up.

    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • Since installing imesh last night, and since uninstalling it, my default New Tab is now the imesh search page. I can't seem to take it out or change it to a different New Tab default page. Any suggestions?

    I have been through all the User Defined settings on the about:config page. There is one there that looked promising, but I am prohibited from changing it in about:config.
    There is nothing I can find in Tools Options pertaining to what your new tab page setting is, or how to modify it.

  • I have tried everything suggested to get rid of the "Open a new tab" search page.

    I just bought a new computer with Windows7. I downloaded and installed Firefox 18.0.1 about a week ago.
    I am trying to get the history icon page to open when I click the "Open a new tab".
    Some of the things I've tried (like resetting Firefox and installing the add-on) worked but only until I shut down.
    When I load Firefox again, that pesky search page ("Open a new tab") is back.
    How can I get the history icon page to stay permanently from day to day?

    Sunday 20 Jan 13
    No addons, extensions or user.js file.
    Problem persists.

  • Opening new tab cause page to freeze

    Hi,
    I'm using Safari 4.0.3 on Windows Vista.
    I am unable to create a new tab without crashing the page.
    Does anyone have any tips?
    Many thanks.

    One more try...
    Open Safari Preferences again and click Tabs. Select: When a new tab or windows opens, make it active.

  • When I downloaded new version of firefox, the feature where when I open a new tab a page loads that contains mini-windows containing my most visited sites. where is this feature now!?

    So with the new version of firefox I lost the feature where, whenever I opened a new tab, instead of a blank tab page, a page would appear that contained mini-windows containing pics of all my most often used websites. I could then simply click on one of maybe six windows to go directly to my most used sites. What happened to this? I really, really, really miss this feature. How can I get it back?

    The Google Toolbar and other extensions for Firefox include a list of compatible Firefox versions. Currently, the Google Toolbar only goes up to Firefox 4. However, people have tested and it actually works on Firefox 5, so there are two workarounds:
    (1) Edit a file to revise the range of compatible versions
    (2) Install an add-on that lets you ignore the range of compatible versions
    This thread has info on both approaches: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/837142 google toolbar does not work with firefox 5.0. why not! | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help].

  • New tab default page

    Is there a way to set up a google search page to come up when I select "open a new tab". I see options to set it to blank, but not say to the google website. When I open Firefox, it brings up the google site, just not when I hit open new tab. Thank you.

    There is currently no option to do this in Firefox 3.6, but I do know it has been suggested as an option in a future version.
    However, you can install one of the several extensions that provide this service. These can be found at https://addons.mozilla.org
    I use one called '''New Tab Homepage'''
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/777/ or http://www.cusser.net/extensions/tabhomepage/
    * Firefox 3.0b2 - 3.6.*
    * Loads your homepage when you open a new tab.
    Very small and simple, just opens your start page when opening a new tab.
    There are alternatives if you want it to do something else, just search on AMO. :)
    Hope this is helpful!

  • Can't find home page with current bookmarks and pined tabs/home page reverted to Fire Fox start up page

    Some how my home page reverted to Fire Fox start up page and lost my up to date book marks/ this is very bad. I had just finished uninstalling some tag along programs that installed even when I hit decline when installing a program I received with the fire fox emblem that would automatically notify me of new updates on existing programs. How can I get it back?

    Hi renee98,
    Your question was posted in the Firefox OS support forums. This section is for the mobile device developed by Mozilla.
    However, from what you describe, it appears that your problem is related to the Firefox browser in your Windows PC. Is this correct?
    We look forward to hearing back from you so that we can continue to assist you.
    Thanks,
