Pinning Tabs in IE 11

Is it possible to pin tabs in IE 11? I don't mean pin them to the task bar, I mean pin them to stay open. Chrome allows us to right click and "pin tab" and it moves over to the left and remains open and returns to its place next time we open
Chrome. Can we do this with IE 11?

Hi Radolpho,
there is no 'Pin tab' context menu option in webkit or gecko... It must be one of your Chrome/FX extensions. View your webkit/gecko Addons management tab and try to identify which addon it is.... the vendor may have an equivalent addon for MSIE.
Tools>Manage Addons>Get More addons to install additional addons to your MSIE browser.
For consumer questions about IE post to

Pinned tabs stay highlighted

''locking this thread as duplicate, please continue at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1029649 /questions/1029649]''
I use pinned tabs for Facebook, Twitter, and emails. The blue highlight feature for new notifications is staying on continuously even though I've addressed the notifications. This is a recent development in the last week or so.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

How do I resize pinned tabs/deal with tab group problems in Firefox 22?

With the automatic update to Firefox 22, my pinned tabs have ballooned in size; not only does this look horrible, but it reduces the real estate available for other tabs. While NoSquint has sorted the issue with websites randomly resizing themselves, everything else (add-on menu, toolbar icons) has also increased in size, which affects what can be displayed.
Another problem with 22 is that my tab groups are no longer behaving normally: I click on one group and another group moves around the screen, typically jumping behind the original group I clicked on. Any suggestions for how to improve these problems are much appreciated.

hello, firefox 22 is now respecting the pixel density you've set on a system level in the windows control panel > appearance > display. more information about that is availbale at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/make-the-text-on-your-screen-larger-or-smaller
if you want to set the text size/pixel density in firefox different from that of your system's settings like it was handled in prior versions, enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''layout.css.devPixelsPerPx'''. double-click it and change its value to '''1.0''' (or any other zoom factor that fits your purpose; 0.8 equals 80%, 1.15 is 115% and so on..., -1.0 is the default value and will adhere to the system settings).

Why does my first pinned tab always load as the google play store when I don't have that saved as a pinned tab? This happens to every site pinned in first tab.

This happens no matter how many tabs I have pinned and no matter what site is supposed to be in that first pinned tab. If I close that tab and close and reopen firefox, the next tab in line that became first now loads as the google play store. I can see that for a couple seconds it starts to load the correct site. Then it loads the google play store instead.

Is there a way to close a pinned tab without unpinning it or closing the browser completely?

when i have one of my pinned tabs opened and i open a new tab, i cant find a way to close the pinned tab without closing the browser completly.
is there a way to close a pinned tab?
thanks.

You can also middle-click a tab to close that tab and that also works for pinned tabs.

WHy do my pinned tabs not come up when I reopen Firefox?

I have pinned my email and internet radio in the tab bar. After I exit Firefox 4 and then return - the pinned tabs are no longer there. Also the "ghost" tab with the + sign (to open a new tab) is missing at the right side of the tabs in the tab bar...where did it go? I have to hit the button in the Navigation bar...dont like that.

Another issue that manually creates this problem:
Open browser with the App Tabs
Open a second browser window (no App Tabs here)
Close the first browser window using the top-right 'X' and then close the second browser window the same way (all browser windows are closed now)
Reopen the browser & the App Tabs are gone.
Although I rarely do this, sometimes I'll be working on multi-windows & forget the order of closing. I solved this my getting the "Toolbar Buttons" add-on [ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/toolbar-buttons/ ] and putting the "Exit" icon in my navigation toolbar & had to train myself to use that to exit Firefox. Now I don't lose my App tabs.

It's possible to put tittle in the header of pinned tabs?

I have son pinned tabs, but his headers are only favicons. If I need to have some pinned tabs from the same site all of the looks the same.
It's possible to have a tittle on the tab's header like a normal tab?

Pinned App tabs only show the favicon and not the title text to make them take as less space as possible (they won't scroll if you've opened a lot of tabs).
You can consider to create your own favicon or modify the current favicon and use that instead. 
That probably only works if you bookmark the link.

My pinned tabs are not saved. Changed the settings still does not work?

This changed before upgrading to the new version of FRFX. I cannot save my pinned tabs, nor does Firefox open to the last tabs open. Tried to change Settings...still does not work.
I have a new iMac 3.4, i7, 16g for video editing. Its running LION 10.7.2

Well that was odd, decided to check addons and started firefox in safe mode and my pinned tabs were there so restarted it to disable addons one by one but before I could do anything my pinned tabs were back in place. Lets hope it lasts.

My pinned tabs are not saved in Firefox 9

I updated firefox yesterday to 9.01 and now my pinned tabs are not saved when I reopen firefox. I had hoped the days of having umpteen problems on each update were gone now there is a little one every couple of weeks but no, it's still a pain.

When I restart Firefox, my pinned tabs open to the page that I last viewed rather than the page that I originally pinned. For example, if I pinned to a local ne

When I restart Firefox, my pinned tabs open to the last webpage that I viewed rather than the page that I originally pinned. For example, if I pinned to a local newspaper's website, navigate to espn while on the pinned tab and then close Firefox, the next time I open Firefox, the pinned tab goes to espn rather than the local newspaper's site.
Additionally, the same thing happens if I am reading an article on the pinned tab. When reopening Firefox, the pinned tab goes to the last article viewed.

Hi don.w,
That is just the way that pinned tabs are designed. They are meant to be left on the page you want them left on e.g. a web mail account.
If you want to pin a newspaper then I would pin the front page and then open any article you want to read in a new tab.
Having said that there is an addon called [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-utilities/ Tab-utilities] which contains an option to automatically revert a pinned tab to the original URL.
I hope that helps.

When opening Firefox, how can I make nothing besides already pinned tabs open?

I have some pinned tabs that I'm happy with, but I don't want a home page or any other form of extra tab to open every time I start Firefox. I just want the pinned tabs and nothing else. I keep having to close the tab that it pops up upon start.

That is not possible. Firefox will always open at least one normal tab, but should select a pinned tab if you close Firefox with one selected.

When I start ver 4 the first time 10 to 15 blank windows open and does not remember pin tabs?

When I open version 4 the first time, 10 to 15 blank windows open up. it does not remember any pinned tabs or go to my home page.

Make sure that you not run Firefox in [[Private Browsing]] mode.
In Private Browsing mode some menu items are disabled (grayed) and some features like visited links and others are disabled and not working.
You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing".
See [[Private Browsing]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_Private_Browsing
You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
To see all History settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting '''Firefox will: Use custom settings for history'''
UnCheck: [[ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"
Another possibility is that there is a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak and any existing files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js .

Why does a 2nd Firefox open when I click on a pinned tab?

90% of the time, when I click on one of the 10 pinned tabs to open it, a 2nd Firefox window opens up with the tab I clicked on, thus removing it from the original Firefox page (now only 9 pinned tabs). In other words, I have to minimize the 2nd window with the one tab and move it back to the original Firefox page (which then closes out the 2nd window). This is VERY VERY annoying~!

Make sure that you do not drag a tab slightly down in the browser window while clicking.
Current Firefox versions have a feature called tear-off tabs. 
You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window. 
You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.

Opening in new tab from a pinned tab

I use a lot pinned tabs for gmail and facebook, but there is something that is frustrating me about opening new tabs from those pinned one.
Let's say that I have more that 50 tab, if I try to open a new tab from a pinned tab, the new tab will be created at the top of the list, just near the pinned one. This is really frustrating since I don't want to go back on the top of the tab list.
Is there a way to make firefox open the new tabs at the end of the tab list ?
Thank you.

you're very welcome :))

Links from pinned tab do not open in new tab, why?

When I open a link from a pinned tab the link opens in the pinned tab not in a new tab. This just started happening did I somehow turn off or on something? How do I get the tabs working the way they should?

My mouse doesn't have a middle button. Interesting that a pinned tab isn't protected unless you have an extension because until two days ago my pinned tabs were protected. Am I the only one who could do this?
thanks for trying to help.

Have tried to use app tabs, but on right click, only "pin tab" shows

Using vista, installed ff4 today.
When trying to use app tab only "pin tab" shows on right click. It works just like it did in 3.6.

That is the app tab feature. You pin the tab, and it will remain open, even after you close your browser and reopen it again.
