Open bookmark results in "new tab". More is not possible!

[]Opening a bookmark or entering a web address does not work.
The result is only: "New tab".
Also opening in the Firefox Help menu results in "New tab".
By clicking on "New tab" nothing happens!

Can't you open any web page or do you only have that problem with bookmarks?
Issues with bookmarks or history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Bookmarks_history_and_toolbar_buttons_not_working_-_Firefox
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

Can't open bookmarks in a new tab after changing "browser.tabsinsertRelatedAfterCurrent" - even after changing it back.

I changed "browser.tabsinsertRelatedAfterCurrent" in about:config, and then changed it back after it didn't do what I had hoped it would do. The next time I tried to open a bookmark '''from the menu''' (not the little bookmarks button thing), nothing happens when I select "Open in a New Tab."
EDIT:
Bah, I couldn't take it and just did a restore.

Open bookmark in a new tab

If I select a page from my Bookmarks it overwrites/replaces the current tab.
By pressing the Ctrl key the bookmarked site opens in a new tab.
Is there a way to reverse this 'norm'?
That is, I'd like my click on an entry in Bookmarks to open the selected page in a new tab. Whereas if I press Ctrl when selecting a bookmark entry, it will overwrite the current tab.

You can also middle-click a bookmark to have it open in a new tab.
TabMix Plus has an option to have bookmarks open in a new Tab, but I don't think that includes having it open in the current tab when {Ctrl + Click} is used.

Open bookmark in a new tab using mouse only - how?

Is there a way you can open a bookmarked page in a new tab using your mouse only? Like pressing the middle mouse button in FireFox. I don't like using an extra button on the keyboard to do this, or opening a new, empty tab first and then clicking on a bookmark.

okay, now this thread can die once again
LOL
you can right-click (open in new tab) on bookmarks in your collections page, even those in folders. just can't do this from the bookmarks bar.
Yes, you're right, you can. (And you can Command-click to immediately open in a new tab - quicker and easier than right-clicking and then choosing a menu item, in my opinion.) I thought of mentioning that earlier, but it was clear to me that Rosalba is looking for a way to open a bookmark in the Bookmarks Menu in a new tab without any additional steps, whether opening the bookmarks collection in a new window first, opening a new tab first, etc.
Regardless, we have at least gone over what you can do in this thread.

Open search result in new tab

I would like to create a site similar to Firefox, where the
search result opens in a new tab window. Doesn't anyone know how to
go about this. Can is only be done in flash or is there other
options.:

In Dreamweaver I found where you can set a link to open in a
new window or in the same window that the person is viewing your
page in. I didn't see anything about a new tab. If you want your
url link to open in an all new window, open your document that
contains the specific url. Click in the text and it will show your
link in the Properties box at the bottom of the page. Just below
where you link URL is seen there is a TARGET drop down menu... It
has _self: this will cause the URL to open in the same window.
There is _blank: this will open the URL in an entirely new window.
It also has _parent, and _top. Not sure about them. Tried them on
one of my URL's and think they both opened in the same window I was
viewing my page in. Hope this is any help at all.

Stop Safari opening search results in new tab

Since updating to Safari 6.0.1 (and now 6.0.2) in OSX10.7.5 anytime I click a link which is a search engine search result (Google and Yahoo!, Ask.com has always done that) the result opens in a new tab. Previously results would open in the same tab and I could just press the 'back' button until I returned to the search results page. I would like to be able to go back to going back in my history, instead of switching between tabs. If anyone knows how I can restore the same tab thing instead of opening new tabs I would appreciate it as having a half dozen open tabs is frustrating, and I usually only need a second search result if the first was entirely unhelpful (thus rendering tabs a

I don't know about Yahoo, but Google has a setting to open results in a new window. If it's selected, deselect it.

Open Search Results in New Tab

Hi,
Is it possible to make the search bar open a new tab with the search results when I make a search?

HI,
Hover your mouse over the return you want to open in a new Tab, then press Command + Enter or your Return key.
If Safari crashes again, post the crash report here.

On OS X, middle click and command-click do not open bookmarks in a new tab

On OS X, middle clicking or Cmd-clicking on a link, or on a bookmark on the toolbar, opens that link in a new tab. However, middle clicking or Cmd-clicking on a bookmark in the Bookmarks menu opens the link in the current tab.
In the case of middle clicking, I am using an external mouse. Cmd-click fails to open a new tab from links in the Bookmarks menu both when using an external mouse, as well as when I use my MacBook trackpad.

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? ''A troubleshooting mode.'' 
1.You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holidng the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut. 
2. Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.''
If not, see this:

Using right mouse click in bookmarks and selecting new tab or window does not work anymore in firefow 4.0. no new tab or window opens. Still works if you open new via File menu.

When you select bookmarks, find the bookmark you want, then right mouse button click you get a drop down menu giving you the chance to open a bookmark in a new tab or new window. This no longer works with firefow 4.0

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

I would like to always open new link, bookmarks and so on in a new tab without rightclicking and shoosing "open in a new tab". Is that possible?

This is the way Avant browser works by default. So if I am gonna change to Firefox this is an issue for me to work without doing any extra clicks...

You can also middle-click a link with the mouse wheel to open that link or bookmark in a new tab.

Why cant i open all my bookmarks in a new tab? only the ones visible above me, not the ones that show up when i click in the arrow to the upper right?

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

How to open a bookmark folder in new tabs without removing previously opened tabs ?

I love Safari, I think it's the smoothest experience on a Mac. However, not being able to open multiple tabs at once without overwriting my previous ones is a deal breaker. I know you can click the back button to restore previous tabs but then the new ones are gone.
Is there a way to open a bunch of new tabs at once and keep the ones I already have open ?

Hello CommeLeMois,
You should be able to open links in new tabs by holding the Command key (⌘) and clicking on the link. Check in Safari Preferences and looked and the Tab section to see if you have the right behavior enabled.

When I open a new page in a new tab, more tabs just keeps opening but the file/page does not open, why?

something keeps opening new tabs but does not open the first tab does not open

Is it a case of runaway blank tabs? One possible cause is if Firefox wants to download something but you instruct Firefox to handle it itself. This article describes how to clear that up: [[Firefox repeatedly opens empty tabs or windows after you click on a link]].
If they are not blank tabs, do they look like some kind of advertising? You might have a bad add-on. These can slip into your computer as part of a bundle with other software, so I suggest starting here:
Open the Windows '''Control Panel''', Uninstall a Program. After the list loads, click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help in smoking out undisclosed bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
Next, in Firefox, open the '''Add-ons page''' using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
(1) In the left column, click Plugins. If you find a plugin that you don't recognize or which doesn't sound essential, try setting it to "Never Activate". ''(The most essential Plugin is Shockwave Flash. You can use most sites without the others.)''
(2) In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable (or Remove, if possible) unrecognized and unwanted extensions.
Often 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.
Finally, you can supplement your regular security software and "mop up" any remaining issues with the '''scanning/cleaning tools''' suggested in this support article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]. Those are free and take a long time to run. If they seem to finish quickly and especially if they require a purchase to clean your system, you may have a serious infection. Try the specialized forums listed in the article.

I can't open links in a new tab after the latest update

On certain websites where links open automatically in a new tab, such as Gmail etc, the tabs are empty and all of them have this strange address in the address field:
jar:file:///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/omni.ja!/chrome/browser/content/browser/newtab/newTab.xul
On Gmail not a single link works properly, all the links from the black bar, (Documents, Calendar etc...) and links in emails, they are always opened like this. It never happened to me in previous versions of Firefox.
I will be grateful for any help..
P.S. I don't have the Ask.com toolbar installed and never had..

hello, can you try resetting firefox in help > troubleshooting information? this will restore all preferences to the default but keep your bookmarks & passwords

Hyperlink + ctrl click opens the page in new tab in my website. it should open it in the same window of my website

When i do a ctrl+hyperlink click in my website running in firefox, it opens up in a new tab, I dont want the ctrl+hyperlink click to open in new tab or new window. It should open in the same browser. (works as required in IE 7)
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Ctrl+left click on a link or bookmark will open in a new tab. That is a standard Firefox keyboard shortcut. Middle-click will do the same (Middle-click = press the scroll wheel). On the following page, scroll down to "Web Navigation" or Find (Ctrl+F), enter "Ctrl+lef" (without quotation marks) in the Find box. Read the footnote 4 about how to change from background tab to foreground tab.
See: http://www.7is7.com/software/firefox/shortcuts.html
To open a link or bookmark in the currently active tab, simply click on the link or bookmark. Your current tab will be over-written with the new link or bookmark.
The following page shows the shortcuts for IE7. Click "Working with tabs". It shows Ctrl+click will "Open links in a new tab in the background" and on the next line, it shows CTRL+SHIFT+click will "Open links in a new tab in the foreground".
See: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Internet-Explorer-keyboard-shortcuts#
Maybe you have installed something to change the shortcuts on your installation?
