QT Turn OFF Autoplay when video is open in new tab (CMD-CLICK url to open)

Seems to me that what ever builds the HTML for the video by itself in the new tab window has turned on autoplay. I need to turn this. I have figured out how to get WMV files to stop playing automatically, but MOV files still do. I open 20 to 30 links a day for my job and having 10 things playing at the same time drives me crazy and then I have to rewind everything. On 10.5.8 I use Multi-safari 3.2.1 and do not have this problem. I can not use Safari 4 on 10.5.8 and have had to downgrade from 10.6.2 because of this.
My theory is that maybe the HTML that is rendered is stored in WebKit and we should be able to get "Open in new tab" videos to be set with autoplay to FALSE.
Let me know if you have any questions / solutions.
PS ClickToFlash has nothing to do with this issue so do not mention it.
I have demo videos sent to an Apple Engineer that details the issue.

Here is more info to describe the issue.
These are the movies sent to the Apple Engineers to show how our
workflow has worked for 7 years until Safari 4 came out.
Again this has caused us to go back to 10.5.8 though we enjoyed some of Snow Leopards improvements.
Have your sound on when listening to safari4 so you can hear the overlaps.

Would really like this fixed.

Firefox does not open a new tab when you click the plus sign button which is actually a shortcut for opening a new tab. You have to open a new firefox window in order to get a new tab. Please help. Thanks.

I didn't have this problem before with Firefox. My kids must have pressed something or clicked on something that's the open new tab button does not function anymore. No matter how you click it, it doesn't open a new tab. Even if you click on file, then go to new tab, it still doesn't open a new tab. You have to open a new firefox window in order to do multiple browsing.
Hope you can help resolve this problem.
Sincerely,
Ems Guillarte

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. Checking your list of add-ons, the MyPlayCity toolbar is a version of the Ask toolbar.
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

Tabs in Firefox 7 won't work...I can't open a new tab by clicking on the +.....only way to open a new tab is via the FILE/new tab option

Tabs in Firefox 7 won't work...I can't open a new tab by clicking on the +.....only way to open a new tab is via the FILE/new tab option...it seems like a lot of the options/buttons are non-pressable??

This issue can be caused by the Ask.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)
Your system details show that toolbar in the user agent as AskTbYLC/3.11.3.15590

Try disabling the Ask Toolbar extension, and see how it is.

In the previous version of Firefox you would open a new tab by clicking on the small "Open New Tab" button at the Right Hand Side of the Tabs. This button has now disappeared in my upgrade.

I just installed Firefox 4. In the previous version you would open a new tab by clicking on the small "Open New Tab" button at the Right Hand Side of the Tabs. This button has now disappeared in my upgrade. Firefox help still says you can open a new Tab by using the "Open New Tab" Button so how do I get it back??

I got it back by going to "customize toolbar" and hitting "restore default set"! Now there is a small tab next to my open tabs with a "+" on it.

When I open a new tab and click on a new link it open an entire new browser page. This started today with an update i just received.

When I open a new tab I get routed to a new browser window. I currently have about 10 browser windows across my lower screen and cannot change the tab setting to do anything different.

I think once I did not even see the page in my history

When I open a new tab the system startes to open a web site with the name of funmoods search. How can I change back to a blank tab?

When I click on the + sign to open a new tab it was opening to a blank window, Today it started to opening to a web site called funmoods search. I would like to restore to where it comes up blank. Please help! Thanks Dan

Hi,
You may have to change the setting in the application itself or disable the app in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''', click '''Extensions''' on the left. If that doesn't work, try to uninstall the application. Please also see [http://funmoods.com/terms this] (the third bulleted point).

I used to be able to open a new tab by clicking on the + tab on the far right. Now when I click the +, nothing happens. No new tab appears. What could be wrong?

The Open a new tab (the + sign at the far right of the tabs) does not respond. How do I fix that?

Please click the '''Helpful''' button next to the answer that solved your Firefox support issue, when you are logged in.

I can no longer open a new tab by clicking on it or by using file and new tab menu, so what do I change or reset for new tabs to work?

The tabs were working fine, but now tabs will not open when I click on the 'open a new tab + ' button, or if I go to 'file, new tab'. A new tab only opens when I click a link, but I cannot open a tab at will to start a new page. I used your troubleshooting data, but it did not help. I checked tabs settings in Options and all is checked, and I even reinstalled firefox. What do I do to reset or change settings so the tabs will open?

There is a reported incompatibility between the Ask Toolbar and Firefox 3.6.13 that causes new tabs to not open. This problem needs to be fixed by Ask; they need to update their toolbar add-on for Firefox. Until the incompatibility is fixed by Ask, you can disable the Ask Toolbar or un-install it from your system.

I can'r open a new tab by clicking 'open new tab', I can open a new tab by clicking mouse wheel though

I can no longer open a new tab by simply clicking on the + or 'open new tab' in drop down...I can open pages in a new tab by clicking mouse wheel though. I have not made any settings changes.

Ask, and other items, can get installed along with "free" software that you download from the internet. Be careful about looking for "opt-out" options for installing toolbars, search engines, virus scanners, and other "extras" when installing software.

Safari 5.1.9 Why can't we set up Safari to open a new tab by clicking on a hyperlink?

I have a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.6.8, using Safari 5.1.9.
I was wondering why Safari doesn't have the option so that a new tab is opened after clicking on a hyperlink, and to avoid the need to control click?

I just learnt, by accident, that simply clicking the 'Open Apple' button the 'select' button opens a new tab when accessing a hyperlink.
'select' is the word I am using for an older MacBook Pro button which is located at the bottom of the trackpad.
Which is a satisfactory answer to my question.
Cheers.

Just today, I cannot open a new tab - by clicking on the new tab button, or pressing CTRL+T. Help!

I always use this feature and love it! I've gone thru the trouble-shooting guide, checked my plug-ins, cleared my cache and cookies, restarted my computer - and still no new tabs! The only way I can get a new tab is to click on HELP, FIREFOX HELP, and then use the new tab that opens.
Is something wrong with Firefox?

In past threads, this problem has been linked with the Ask toolbar.

[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/788008 New tab button does not work, nor does "Open New Tab" toolbar icon. | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help]
And several users mentioned a link between Foxit Reader and Ask toolbar:

How do I get rid of the "You've opened a new tab" message every time I open a new tab? It's annoying.

Every time I open a new tab, I get the message "You've opened a new tab" How do I stop this from happening?

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