Safari ios7 issues on iPad Air - can't open new tabs - + sign closes app

Safari ios7 issues on iPad Air - can't open new tabs or view other tabs.
The + sign just closes the app every single time!
In some cases, the back and forward buttons don't work.
It's driving me crazy becuase if the webpage I'm on opens and ad or tab that I don't want to look at, I can't close it and go back, I have to retype the web address in and find where I was on the site!

I, too, tried all the fixes...nothing worked.
Found another thread on this forum and looks like a lot of us are having same problem.
Next time it happens, go to SETTINGS/GENERAL/ABOUT and check to see it there is a "low memory" incident report.
If there is:
See the discussion thread "iPad Air Low Memory Crashes".
Seems to be common....this could turn into a HUGH issue.

Since the 3.6.23 update, I can't open new Tabs manually, but apps can. What happened?

If I click on the new-Tab "+" nothing happens. If I select New Tab from the File menu or type Ctrl-T, nothing happens. But apps opening new windows (in prefs, I ask they open new windows as Tabs), new Tabs appear as usual.
I've checked my Options, nothing seems to preclude manually opening new Tabs, so I'm at a loss.

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 AskTbTRL2/3.12.2.16749

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

Can't open new tab by going to file/new tab (or CTRL+T or clicking on the new tab field). Only way is to right click on a link and choose open in new tab.

Hello,
'''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.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or 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.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

I can't open new Tabs on the botton position?

Hello. After upgrading to Firefox v.7 from v.5 I can't open new tabs when on the bottom. Also in any webpage, in an area of about an inch below the "tabs" line does not work. Example: on the Firefox "Help" page I can not sign-in/register if I want to "contribute" & I can not use any of the buttons under the title "NEED HELP WITH FIREFOX?". When on the Yahoo home page none of the buttons above the Yahoo "search bar" and the "search bar" itself works.
I have been trying to get someone on Live chat since 9:00 with no avail.

The Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause this issue. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

I am unable to open new tab by clicking the + box or even from File - New Tab. It has been working perfectly but failed since last week. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the program but the trouble seems remaining unchanged.Is my Firefox affected by virus or something else? Please help! it is so inconvenient.

Has anyone solved the Safari Crashing Issue on iPad Air

I am using an iPad Air with iOS 7.0.4 and Safari continues to crash while I am scrolling. I have tried the suggested fix: clear history/cookies/data and then reset the iPad, but that did not fix the problem. I can consistently recreate the crash by doing the following:
Clear the Safari history/cookies/data (Settings --> Safari)
Reset the iPad (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for 10 seconds)
Open Safari
Open the url https://twitter.com/TimCookAppleCEO
Scroll to the bottom of the page and tap the "Tap to load more tweets" button.
Repeat Step # 5 three times
Attempt to scroll to the top of the page by performing a finger swipe up
Safari crashes (closes abruptly)

Mine is crashing consistently, whereas my iPad 3 hardly ever did. Mine consistently crashes within 30 seconds when I open this:

What is wrong with the ipad if i cant open new tabs in safari?

I just baught the ipad mini and i can not open more than one tab at a time. Even after i tap on 'openin another tab" nothing happens. Is there anything wrong with it or is it just a settings problem?

Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Show Info
from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
Does the dialog show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section?
In the General section, is the box labeled Locked checked?
What is the Modified date?
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.

How can I open new tab on iPad mini?

I'm trying to pone new tabs on iPad mini but doesn't work, whenever I touch "+" it went back to home screen

Clear Safari, reset the iPad and try again.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

I can't open new tabs from links in a site, while it is possible from chrome.

In this site http://www.thepressproject.gr/ I can't open the links in new tabs, while for the same site using chrome I can. When I right click on the link, i don't have the usual options (open in new tab, open in new window, bookmark etc.). It is as if it doesn't "see" the links at all and the options are for the main page.
What is wrong?
(I am sorry for my english, I hope I make sense!)

That is a really strange issue. I've never heard of it before nor can I figure out how to fix it. What I'd recommend doing is disabling all your add-ons to see if that fixes the problem. If it does, one of your add-ons is causing the issue. If it doesn't, try [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|starting Firefox is Safe Mode]] to see if the issue disappears. If the problem doesn't happen in Safe Mode, it's a problem with something that runs in Firefox when you start it normally (could be settings, plug-ins, add-ons, etc). If you can't figure out what is causing the problem in Safe Mode or you know the problem but can't solve it, the easiest thing to do is to [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset Firefox]] or completely reinstall Firefox, described below:
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.

#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:

I can not open new tabs witht the + button

When I click on the + button next to the last tab, a new tab will not open. Also, if I right-click on a tab and chose NEW TAB, a new tab will not open. I can open a new tab by right-clicking in a web page, or by right-clicking on a link in my favorites toolbar. This feature was working and just stopped. I have reboot, and even re-installed firefox.

Try uninstalling the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and the current version of Firefox.

Can't open new tab in DETACHED window.

I use software that allows me to detach a window for a certain feature. In the last version of Firefox (3.?), I could right click on a link in the detached window and it would open in that detached window. Now with Firefox 4, it opens it in the original window so I have to move it over to the detached window. Or I have to copy the current tab into a new tab, then open the feature I want. Either way it's a pain. Can I fix this?
