Right click on bookmarks - options removed in 4. Beta?

Hi,
I'm sure in 3.n I right clicked on a bookmark to choose whether to open it in a new window or a new tab, or to flick through a number of bookmarks to open two or three at once. In 4.Beta when I right click a bookmark I don't get an option to open it in another window or new tab. I don't get an option to open it at all.
Was this removed deliberately? & if so why? Seems a wierd thing to take out.

Those options plus the usual others still show up when I right-click.

I can not right click "open in new tab" nor open in new window, in my bookmark file.the bookmarks are all there, but I have to open a tab first then left click to open an item. Why can't I right click? The options are there, but not highlighted/clickable.

The only way I can open a new tab is by right-clicking a bookmarked site and selecting "Open in a New Tab." I can't click on the New Tab + or CTR+T or open via File. WHY?!?

The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.
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

I have a database of names. When I go to the database and pull up names I right click on the option "Open in new tab". I would like to bring up 200 names and do the same function simultaaneously to them like, add a vote to their total individual vote count. Is this possible?

I ended up reformating the drive as FAT32 because I still need to use it on my Windows 98SE system also. I did have a problem with the allocation size. I wanted to use 512 bytes but it kept failing so I used the default size(8192 bytes) and then it worked fine. I didn't think there would be a problem formatting as NTFS but since you are having problems I just tried it. It failed at 512 bytes allocation size so I tried again using 4096 bytes, the default, as the allocation size and it failed again. It looks like these drives will not format as NTFS.
Also, I think I figured out what's going on with the ReadyBoost problem. As I said initially it wouldn't work with ReadyBoost then after I had 12GB of data on the drive the ReadyBoost feature started working. After I deleted all the files it quit working again. After doing some reading on the net about Flash drives and ReadyBoost problems it appears that the memory chips on my Lenovo Flash drive are mixed with both fast memory chips that work fine with ReadyBoost and slower memory chips that are too slow for ReadyBoost. Apparently, after I fill up the portion of memory with data that uses the slow chip(s) then ReadyBoost works fine with the fast chip(s). I also verified the Flash drives read and write memory speeds using Vista's Event Viewer. To work with ReadyBoost the Flash drive has to read at a minimum of 2.5MB/s (for 4KB random reads) and write at a minimum of 1.75MB/s (for 512KB random writes).
Let me know what you find out.

Cannot Right Click on Bookmarks (in Bookmarks Toolbar) if they are "Inside a folder" or under "Show more bookmarks" in OS X

I tried to right click on bookmarks in "Bookmarks Toolbar" which are "Inside a folder" or under "Show more bookmarks" to delete or rename them but nothing happened! like i didn't right click at all
but if a bookmark in Bookmarks Toolbar is not in a folder and is not under show more bookmarks its ok and i can right click o manage it
Now to delete a bookmark inside a folder i have to drag it outside and then right click and delete it or use bookmarks library, which is really annoying, shouldn't we be able to right click on bookmarks inside folders and delete them there?
Is there any shortcut key for example holding command and clicking to rename or delete a bookmark until this bug is fixed?

@jscher2000
Yea that works, i'm already doing that, but its really annoying if you want to rename or delete a bookmark you have to open bookmarks library and then find the bookmark there, then delete or rename it, i find the dragging way a little faster
I don't think this is going to be fixed soon, so im looking for a way to rename and delete bookmarks in Bookmarks Toolbar
I think many have this problem too i have also created a topic here:

Why can't i right click a bookmark inside a folder on my favourites bar?

I can right click a bookmark on my favorites bar to open it in another tab and stuff, but i cant right click the bookmark when it's inside a folder?

Only because Apple didn't make that possible - although you can probably Command click it to open in a new tab.

Why can't I use Right-Click in Bookmarks (to delete) or on Tabs (to bookmark) anymore?

Much of the right-click mouse support seems to have been removed from Firefox - is there a reason for this?
Examples are in the Subject line.

You can change the order of the boxes on the about:newtab page and drag an item to a different tile to pin it to that position or you can remove a website by clicking the close X to block that URL.
You can drag a bookmark or history item and drop them in a tile on the about:newtab page to pin them and have your own favorites sites showing.
Changes made manually on the about:newtab page are stored in prefs that you can find on the about:config page.
*browser.newtabpage.pinned stores websites that you have pinned to a tile.
*browser.newtabpage.blocked stores websites that you have removed by clicking the X button in a tile.
So you can reset those prefs via the right-click context menu to reset changes made to the about:newtab page.

Right click lot of option (play, mute) nothing work

Hello everybody,
i'am using firefox 31 in mint 17 and i have a problem.
When i right click on a link i have too much option (like this : https://support.cdn.mozilla.net/media/uploads/images/2013-04-03-10-07-53-1b8c34.png )
The "open link in new tab" doesn't work.
Other thing, in "manage search engine" window, when i click "Get more search engines" link ... the link doesn't work .... there is nothing
Below, actions i did to solve my problem (without success) :
* Start firefox in Safe mode (with add on disable) = same problem
* reset firefox = same problem
* uninstall firefox, remove the ~/.mozilla, install firefox = same problem
* create another user in mint, and try with this new user = same problem
I don't know what to do :(
Any ideas ?
Thank you

Such issues with the right-click context menu are usually caused by a extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

Why are the keyboard shortcuts for new window and new tab (N) and (W) instead of (W) and (T) when I right-click on bookmarks in my toolbar?

If I right click on a link in a page, the context menu allows me to open a new tab if I hit t on my keyboard and a new window if I hit w. In the bookmarks menu, these shortcuts change to w and n respectively. Hitting t results in deletion of the bookmark. Can this be changed so it is consistent with the in-page context menu?

You can middle-click a link to open the link in a new tab.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration 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.

Can't middle or right click on bookmarks to open in new tab

I can no longer middle click a bookmark from the bookmarks menu to open in a new tab. No matter whether I left, middle or right click, it is treated as a left click and opens in my currently open tab.
PS I'm doing this using Firefox 23 but the same applies to Firefox 26 (obtained from Nightly Builds).

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* Open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
Please report back soon.

What happened to right-click on Bookmarks?

If I open Bookmarks and right-click on a website, why are "Open bookmark in a new Tab" and "Open Bookmark in a new window" greyed out? In previous versions, I could just open a bookmarked item in a new tab, but Firefox 4 won't allow me to do this.

Firefox doesn't have such context menu entries for "Open Bookmark ...". So it looks that there has been a problem with the extension that added them and that started working again.

Right click file send option disappeared from Snow Leopard.

Hi people,
does anyone know how to re-enable leopard's send-to option when right clicking on a file? I'd need it to send to bluetooth devices directly...
Thanks!

go to system preferences->keyboard->keyboard shortcuts->services and check the box next to "send file to bluetooth device".

Lost start menu icons and not listed in right click open with option +more.

Weird. I need help. Quicktime 7.3.0.70 only--Start menu lost it's icons in the quicktime folder. When right clicking video files, the "open with" option no longer displays quicktime as a program. And lastly, open an avi file or even mpg and the program stops responding without even getting to play the file. I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times but can't seem to fix these issues. Can anyone help? Thanks. This just seemed to happen out of the blue.

I also have lost the icons for Quicktime in my start menu under Windows XP. The icons actually work when you do click them but the icons are not loaded. Everything functions fine and it's the newest version of Quicktime installed. I also have the newest version of iTunes installed. I ended up manually adding my own icons on the start menu as I've uninstalled and reinstalled Quicktime several times to no avail and even attempted to flush the windows icon cache. No go. This just started happening recently.
It's not happening on my WinXP Pro laptop however, although I've yet to upgrade to the latest version of iTunes+Quicktime.
*Right-Click Open With Menu still functions properly and the icon image is appearing correctly in that menu.

Right-Click List of Options

Hi all;
Since i've upgraded to Snow Leopard, the 'Search in Babylon' option ceased to exist on the right-click of the mouse's list. Any ideas? Tanx.

Hi Paulo:
Since i've upgraded to Snow Leopard, the 'Search in Babylon' option ceased to exist on the right-click of the mouse's list.
Start here...download the most current after making sure it is compatible with Snow Leopard and install again.

Right Click - no Tab option

I just updated Safari and now I have lost the option of right-click New Tab. All I have is Open in New Window.
Does anyone know how I get back the option for Open in New Tab?
Muz

Ok...
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 Safari tabs are ok, then move that .plist file to the Trash.
Please keep your forum profile available in all your posts. Makes it much easier then scrolling back and forth.
Sometimes just restarting your Mac can help too.
