New tab no longer shows 9 suggested sites from history

Until recently, when I opened a new tab, there were thumbnail views of nine frequently visited websites. Now the new tab opens a completely blank page. How do I turn the suggested sites back on?

Any one have any ideas?

When I open a new tab, the new tab used to show shots of 6 or so of the last sites I'd viewed, so I could easily click on one and go to it. Now it shows a blank tab and I have to type the URL of the page I want. How can I change it back?

Did you have the Google Toolbar installed?

When I open a new tab, instead of showing my most visited sites, it automatically brings me to a website I haven't favorited or visited.

Pretty much as the question states. Whenever I open a new tab, it directs me to this site called Babylon Search, some sort of search engine-looking website that I suspect could contain malware or something of the like. I've tried everything I can and searched through all of the help topics to find a way to restore the ability to preview my most-visited sites without any luck.

In the new tab page, how do you restore sites you've deleted.

You can only edit the content of the chromeappsstore.sqlite file with an SQLIte manager like this Firefox extension:
* SQLite Manager: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/sqlite-manager/
# open Profile Directory -> chromeappsstore.sqlite -> Go
# open Table > webappsstore2
# select the "Browse & Search" tab to see all entries in that table
You can select the "batwen.:about" "blockedLinks" line and click the Delete button on the toolbar to remove that record and reset the deleted sites.

When opening a new tab, how can I specify a site or empty? My tabs open to a site I don't want to see.

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.

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.

How to create a new tab it will show the most recent/viewed page?

When I accidentally downloaded Incredibar, when open a new tab it keeps showing "My start by incredibar", and also very slow when loading that page. I want to get back my most recent/viewed page. I did delete the Incredibar but the problem still goes on...

See:

*[[/questions/860323]]
Try to reset some preferences to the default with the SearchReset extension:
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the about:addons page.

Add new tab of long text to production order

Hi all
i need to add new tab of long text to production order, which will be blocked for changes.
anyone can help with this?
thanks.

Yossi,
The purpose of long text is so that business users can add additional information while processing the order so that everyone can check the text.
Please tell us why do you want to block the production order text? Also why do you need a new tab for long text? and where do you want that information to be stored?

Blue star no longer showing in Top Sites

My top sites page no longer shows the blue 'updated' starts in the corner. I have tried resetting just the topsites in 'reset safari...', but it just shuffled them all around and lost some favourites. It's becoming frustrating...
Can anyone give me some fix to this?
Thanks!

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Go to ~/Library/Safari and move these files to the Trash.
History.plist
LastSession.plist
TopSites.plist
WebpageIcons.db
Relaunch Safari.
If that didn't help, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. If you can edit TopSites now, move that .plist file to the Trash.

The new tab page is showing Gmail inbox pages, meaning anyone can start a new tab and get access to my email. How do I stop this?

When I open a new tab, within the pages brought up is my gmail inbox. This mean anyone can have access to my inbox without logging in, without my password. How do I restrict this access?

If you log out of Gmail, then clicking the thumbnail should take you to a login page. If you don't log out, then anyone can access your email just by typing gmail.com in the URL bar. But you're right that the picture does create a temptation to click...
You can set the new tab page back to blank if you prefer. However, please note that the page thumbnails are stored in the browser cache, so you also need to clear your cache to flush out existing thumbnails if you don't want anyone to be able to see them.

The Calendar tab no longer shows in users and groups screen

To add a user to a node, I used to be able to click on the Calendar tab after
adding a new user to the Directory. After upgrading to Calendar 3.5, it no
longer shows up!

In the file suitespot_server_root/admin-serv/config/dsgw.conf make sure that the
following line is added at the end:
include suitespot_server_root/admin-serv/config/dsgw-calendar.conf

You will have to stop/start your admin server after making any changes.

Have you tried opening Calendar to see if it updates?

Command click to open link in new tab no longer works in google scholar

Well the question basically says it all. Starting a couple of weeks ago, i have not been able to command click links to open in new tabs (I am on a mac, OS X 10.6.8). This includes links to google books as well as library links. This only happens on google scholar. It also happens in 'safe mode'. I have contacted google support who have stated that this is a browser issue. They have not changed the coding of the scholar site. This is very frustrating. I have used FF for years and am now going to have switch to Safari, whose own command click function continues to work in google scholar. Any thoughts/ suggestions?

Yes this issue is definitely related to Firefox. As I stated at the outset, the command click works fine in safari (although I prefer not to use it due to its restriction of automatically opening enw files in EndNote).
I was curious as to whether the issue was triggered by new coding on the part of Google scholar. Doesn't seem that way. Although I am still curious whether some of the style coding of the scholar page is creating issues... Given that command clicking works on every other page including regular Google searches...
The point though, was to generate some leads as to where this problem may best be addressed and what is the best language with which to do so...
Any advice on how to actually get these questions to Firefox support? That is how I wound up here in the first place!

Tile view in new tab window not showing

I recently updated Firefox to 36.0.4 and since then the tile view window (showing recently visited sites) when opening a new tab has gone. There is no 'Settings' button in the corner of the screen to turn it on either like theire used to be. How do I get it back?

You can check on the about:config page if the browser.newtab.url is still set to about:newtab
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

How can I click on 'new tab' and have all my frequent sites come up the way they used to?

In the old firefox, I would click on a new tab, and when the window came up it showed nine little pictures of my most used websites. Excellent feature that I loved!!! Installed the new version of Firefox on Friday, and now when I open a new tab I just get a blank page. This is REALLY going to slow down my work. If the new Firefox won't show me my windows, I'd like to go back to the old version.

What email program or email site do you want Firefox to fire up to send the message?
In the Preference dialog, you might be able to select the program from a list. In some cases, you need to take extra steps to add it to the list.
Firefox > Preferences > Applications
In the search box above the list, type '''mailto''' and then pause to let the list filter down. Does the drop-down control on the right side let you choose your preferred email program?

New Tab doesn't show all tiles in Firefox 33

So I just updated to Firefox 33 and the first thing I notice is the newtab page is changed. I get a 4 x 2 grid instead of the regular 3 x 3 grid. I tried changing things through about:config and it says I should have a 5 x 3 grid. I can only decrease the number of columns and rows to see any change on the tab. If I shrink the tab using ctrl - it'll show things correctly but that doesn't save. What can I do to get newtab back to the way it was before updating or show things correctly?

Overall, I am seeing real strange "stuff" with the number of rows set in about:config and the number of columns set also, in multiple separate Profile in Firefox 33. I haven't been able to see any "order" in the chaos, as far as trying to pin down the fault.
'''browser.newtabpage.columns''' has a default setting of '''5''' which was set at '''3''' in prior versions, with '''browser.newtabpage.rows''' at '''3''', which was the previous value, too. Whatever I set those two prefs at, the maximum I see is 3 columns and 2 rows. Looks like a Bug to me.
Meanwhile, another Profile that I use - [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-tools/ New Tab Tools] - in, is humming along unaffected in Firefox 33.
