New tab with sidebar slow to load

I updated to Mavericks on my Macbook Pro Retina yesterday.
Safari 7 has an issue with loading a new tab, when the sidebar is on for new tabs.
When I click the plus symbol for a new tab, there is a pause: the new tab takes 2 - 3 seconds to load.
When the side bar for new tabs is off, the new tab loads instantly.
I have reset Safari, and restarted the Macbook Pro. This hasnt changed anything.
I have no extensions installed.
Anyone else finding this happening?

I have discovered thats its the Twitter information (the fetching of information process that happens in the sidebar) that is causing the delay when opening the new tab.
If you turn off the sidebar OR change it to bookmarks, then the delay doesnt happen.
I wonder if Apple are bothered by this, looking into fixing the anonying delay?

Hi Marx,
With this kind of data testing it is helpful to provide context to the issue you are trying to document. This technical information is very useful to the engineers working on the performance of Firefox and I am sure this is the kind of information they would love to see.
Therefore I would like to put you in touch with this team to see what they can do with this information. Talk to the #perf channel in irc and they should be able to put you in the right direction. I am asking currently and see what I can find. Or in the meantime check out the current tab bugs in the Performance component of bugzilla provided in the search below: [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=tab%20performance&list_id=9361049]

Firefox does not recongnize some downloadable file (e.g., Adobe Flash Player); instead it opens a new tab with nothing in it.

Firefox cannot download the files I want to download sometimes. For example installing Flash Player. It opens a new tab with URL "http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/mac/9.x/9.3.4/enu/AdbeRdr934_en_US_i386.pkg.zip" and title "adberdr.pkg.zip (application/zip object)" on it. It happens when I have to download some dmg or compressed files.

-> Tap ALT key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar
-> go to Help Menu -> select "Restart with Add-ons Disabled"
Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. Now do this:
-> Update ALL your Firefox Plug-ins https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
-> go to View Menu -> Zoom -> click "Reset" -> Page Style -> select "Basic Page Style"
-> go to View Menu -> Toolbars -> unselect All Unwanted toolbars
-> go Tools Menu -> Clear Recent History -> '''Time range to clear: select EVERYTHING''' -> click Details (small arrow) button -> place Checkmarks on '''Cookies, Cache''' -> click "Clear Now"
-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Content -> place Checkmarks on:
1) Block Pop-up windows 2) Load images automatically 3) Enable JavaScript
-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Security -> place Checkmarks on:
1) Warn me when sites try to install add-ons 2) Block reported attack sites 3) Block reported web forgeries 4) Remember Passwords for sites
-> Click OK on Options window
-> click the Favicon (small drop down menu icon) on Firefox SearchBar (its position is on the Right side of the Address Bar) -> click "Manage Search Engines" -> select all Unwanted Search Engines and click Remove -> click OK
-> go to Tools Menu -> Add-ons -> Extensions section -> REMOVE All Unwanted/Suspicious Extensions (Add-ons) -> Restart Firefox
You can enable your Known & Trustworthy Add-ons later. Check and tell if its working.

Firefox automatically opens a new tab with search results

When I visit a URL, Firefox loads that page and also opens a new tab with a URL based on some word in the original page. E.g., www.tripadvisor.com url opened in a new tab. Is this a feature I can turn off?
E.g., I searched for "shovel" in the location bar. A list of results was presented. The first one was as follows. When I clicked on that link, the Amazon.com page with a bunch of shovels opened, as well as another tab with the home page of Amazon.com.
May be this is a Google issue and not Firefox issue.
Amazon.com: Shovels
Online shopping for Shovels from a great selection of Patio, Lawn & Garden & more at everyday low prices.

Firefox won't open .ppt downloads. Instead it merely opens a new tab with nothing in it. How do I fix this?

I used to be able to open .ppt files on webpages with Firefox. But now they don't open. Instead, Firefox opens a new tab with nothing in it. I have already checked the settings for which programs are to be associated with which files, but it is still not working.

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

Every time Firefox opens, I get new tab, with my desired page as a tab that I have to click on to get to. How do I go back to how it was in previous versions?

After updating to the newest version of Firefox, when it opens I get two tabs, and the one that comes up on my screen is new tab, with my homepage on the other, which requires that I click on it to go there. Also when I click on a link the same thing happens, a new tab page comes up, with what I clicked on as another tab that I have to click on to get to. This is actually quite annoying and inconvenient. How do I go back to the way that it was, so that when I start Firefox it opens on my home page, and when a new page opens, I see the content of the link that I clicked on? IMO This new and improved is really new and made worse.

An extra extension might have snuck in. These can be bundled with other software you might have installed recently.
Try disabling ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable. (Or if completely unwanted, remove.)
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that get rid of the extra tab?
Note: I suggest also visiting the Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program, and clicking the "Installed on" column header. This should bring the most recent additions to the top and group them by install date so you can investigate how unexpected software might have been installed.

Can not use scroll mouse in html tab when open pdf file in new tab with middle button but will avaliable only after switch to pdf tab and switch back to html

When I open a "pdf" file in new tab with middle mouse click. After few second my mouse will not able to scroll in page that I read.

There's a Bug filed about that issue.

Can't open a new tab with the + for tabs. Can open with Mid mouse button. Nightly.

When I click The + to open a new tab in Nightly, it does nothing. I can open new tabs with mid ouse button, or right click>open in new tab. Just cant open a new tab via the + button. Started 3 updates ago in nightly (3 days ago pretty much).

Are you using a 32 bit Nightly build or a 64 bit Nightly build?
The 64 bit Nightly build for Windows is only generated to test for compilation errors and doesn't undergo all the tests that other builds get, so the risk that something goes wrong can be quite high.<br />
So if you do use the 64 bit version then try the 32 bit version to see if you still have this problem.

How to open a new tab with the same current directory in a terminal?

I use the following script to open a new terminal with the same pwd.
I'm wondering how to modify it to open a new tab with the same pwd.
#!/bin/sh
# Open a new terminal in the cwd
CWD=`pwd`
osascript<<END
set thePath to "$CWD"
set myPath to (POSIX file thePath as alias)
try
tell application "Terminal"
activate
do script with command "cd \"" & thePath & "\""
end tell
end try
END

bit of a hack, but the make command doesn't seem to work for tabs in terminal. replace what's currently in the 'try' block with this code:
tell application "Terminal" to activate
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Terminal"
keystroke "t" using command down
end tell
end tell
tell application "Terminal"
do script "cd " & (quoted form of thePath) in last tab of window 1
end tell

Why can't I open links in a new tab with a right click anymore? And why has the toolbar removed the refresh button?

Several basic functions seem to be have vanished from Firefox. I can no longer open links in new tabs with a right click, and the refresh browser button (and back/forward navigation buttons, etc) do not appear in with consistency anymore. How do I get these basic navigational tools back? (most recent updates are installed)
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== 7 July 2010

* Make sure that you have the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then see if you can find them in the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window
* If you see the item in the Customize window then drag it back from the Customize window to one of the toolbars.
* If, in "View > Toolbars > Customize", you do not see that item then click the "Restore Default Set" button

When I search for something, firefox opens a new tab with the results. How can I change the settings to where it will all stay in the same tab?

When I search something Firefox automatically opens a new tab with the results of this search. How do I change the settings to where the results will appear in the same tab as where I conducted the search?

Whether to open search results in new window most often is a setting of the search engine you are using.

Changing width of a Sidebar in One Level Tabs with Sidebar.

I am using a One Level Tabs with Sidebar.
How can we change the width of the sidebar??
Thanks,
Deepak

Sam,
In the sidebar region of One Level Tabs with Sidebar., I am using LIST, so when I clicked the " show edit links" of LIST region, it's using template as Navigation Region. Then I did the following modification.
Original Code
<table class="t16NavigationRegion" id="#REGION_STATIC_ID#" #REGION_ATTRIBUTES# border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" summary="" width="210" style="table-layout:fixed;">
<col width="25" /><col width="85" />
Modified Code
increases the table width from 210 - 310 - nothings happens
<table class="t16NavigationRegion" id="#REGION_STATIC_ID#" #REGION_ATTRIBUTES# border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" summary="" width="310" style="table-layout:fixed;">
<col width="25" /><col width="85" />
increases the col width from 85 to 185 (table width remains same as 210) - sidebar region width increases (FINE)
<table class="t16NavigationRegion" id="#REGION_STATIC_ID#" #REGION_ATTRIBUTES# border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" summary="" width="210" style="table-layout:fixed;">
<col width="25" /><col width="185" />
decreases the width of table from 210 - 110 - nothings happens
<table class="t16NavigationRegion" id="#REGION_STATIC_ID#" #REGION_ATTRIBUTES# border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" summary="" width="110" style="table-layout:fixed;">
<col width="25" /><col width="85" />
decreases the col width from 85 to 45 - nothings happens
<table class="t16NavigationRegion" id="#REGION_STATIC_ID#" #REGION_ATTRIBUTES# border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" summary="" width="210" style="table-layout:fixed;">
<col width="25" /><col width="45" />Also, what are thses two columns width for

I'm wondering weather I downloaded a virus or something...
how do I get rid of viruses?
please help, thanks

Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.
