Safari open link in new page

I like to open pages in a new page so I use this a lot.
When I then click on the previous page that was opened, sometimes the page just opens to where it was before, which is the way it should.
However, often when I click on that previous page the page opens by refreshing itself and does not go back to the point it was at previously.
Is there a trick to placing the finger at a certain point on the previous thumbnail page, or am I just expecting the behavior to work that way and it does not?

The self-refreshing of Safari web pages has been discussed her before and nobody know of any resolution except maybe switching browsers.

IPhone Safari doesn't open links in new page

Under iPhone Safari Settings, I've got it set to Open Links In New Page, but when I click on links in Safari, that doesn't happen. When I set it to Open Links In Background, that doesn't happen either. Links open in the same page no matter what the setting.
Anyone know how this can be fixed? Thanks.
(iPhone 4S running IO5)

It depends on the website. Some websites have it set up to take you to a new tab, some do it in the same tab.

Safari opens links in new tabs, or in pre-existing tabs without giving me the option of opening the link in the same tab.

This has never happened before. Normally I would right-click and select open in new tab. How do I fix it? It's really frustrating.

Safari > Preferences > Tabs
"Open pages in tabs instead of windows:"
Click the box for drop down.
You have three choices, Never, Automatically and Always.

Safari open link in new tab problem

Safari opens links in same tab when it should open each link in a new tab.
In preferences, tabs, Open pages in tabs instead of windows: if I select, Always
When I browse, click on a link, the link opens in the page I am viewing and also a new tab.
If I select never
When I browse, click on a link, the page opens in the tab I am viewing and also a new tab (about 75% of the time).
If I select automatically, Safari will selectively open the link in the same page and a new tab at the same time, or sometimes just open a new tab.
What's up, Safari 6?
How can I fix this annoying behavior?

I pulled the plist to the trash, reset Safari, restarted. Everything seems to be working as it should. I'm guessing this was some sort of preference or cache corruption. If the weird behavior returns, I'll report back.

i tried setting preferences , updated software ,
but nothing works. .can anyone help me plz

Check Safari / Preferences then select the Extensions tab. If you have any installed, turn that off, quit then relaunch Safari to test.
And try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file (preferences)
Quit Safari.
Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder. Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari. If that made a difference, move that .plist file to the Trash. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder.
And try resetting Safari. From the menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.

Safari loads link on new page as well as the original page

I have noticed this since iOS6.01 came out.
Ok so,
Page 1:
I hold a link and click open in new page, It opens.
Page 2:
This is the new page, I close it. And safari automatically puts me back to page 1.
Page 1:
Move back to page one but opens link again on this page.
So every time I open a link, it opens on both the new page and the original page
Help! It's so annoying!!!

Open link in new page

Hey, I'm new in this forum.
I know standard there is no possibility to open a link in a new page (tab).
But it must be possible to achieve I suppose?
Probably by putting some html code in the pages? Or even with an easyer way?
for example , if I make a link to a photogallery on Picasa, afther 20 or more photo's it's a very long way for visitors to come back to the website.
I don't use .web because off the very smal amount off webspace they give;
Thanks a lott!
http://users.telenet.be/flour.piet/index.html

thanks a lott Vonz ... very helpfull ... but it's only (fot a newbee like me) a partial answer.
For an opening page : OK
But for a further page in a web : where has the " target="_blank" title= to be putt in?
For example : http://picasaweb.google.nl/piet.flour/Opa90Jaar080907DifferentLook
should that be :
http://picasaweb.google.nl/+*_"target="_blank" title=_*+ piet.flour/Opa90Jaar080907DifferentLook
or :
http://picasaweb.google.nl/piet.flour/_+*"target="_blank" title=*+_ Opa90Jaar080907DifferentLook
or :
http://picasaweb.google.nl/piet.flour/Opa90Jaar080907DifferentLook_+*"target="_blank" title=*+_

Safari wont let me open links in new tabs anymore? Please help!?

On my Macbook, I'm using Safari as my browser.
Everything was fine until this morning; suddenly Safari will not give me the option of opening links from one page in another tab in the same window.
For example, if I'm browsing on EBay and want to open a search result in a new tab of the same window, usually when I would right click on my track pad or magic mouse, it would say "Open link in new tab" or "Open link in new window". However, now when I right click, it just says, "Open link" "Open link in new window" and "Copy link".
I haven't changed any settings or anything on my Macbook whatsoever in the last 3 hours (at least that I'm aware of). Can anyone please tell me how to get this back to normal?
Also, it seems that when I right click anywhere on a page, I only see the options "back" and "reload" whereas before there was "view source" etc.
Please help!

Hi,
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
Since you are running Snow Leopard, *make sure Safari is opening in 32-bit mode, not 64*. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) *make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.*
  Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*
If Safari still won't let you open links in new tabs, 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 it's a successful launch, then that .plist file needs to be moved to the Trash.
If your forum profile is correct (10.6.1) go to the Apple Menu/Software Updates ...
Very important to keep your system software up to date.
If you install the 10.6.3 update make sure and repair disk permissions.
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

Open Link In New Tab In Safari

From a PC World article, http://www.pcworld.com/article/166903/ , "Safari now uses tabbed browsing, like big boys do on the desktops, and this new hidden feature is great. If you tap and hold on a hyperlink (hyperlinked text) on a Web site within Safari, a dialog will prompt you to open this link, copy it (link locations) or open it in a new page (which opens a new tab in Safari)."
I get the same result whether I pick Open or Open in a New Page. Any one get this to work?

Works for me. If I press and hold a link I get three options.
1. Open
2. Open in New Page
3. Copy which copies the URL to the clipboard. (I love this!)
Not really a tab of course but it does open a separate page.

Put back "Open Link in New Window" first and default, rather than "Open Link in New Tab" in Safari 6.1

I do not like the order of the context menu changes in Safari 6.1. I have become accustomed to using "Open Link In New Window" first in the context list, rather than the new "Open Link In New Tab". I do not wish to use Tabs. How may I remove this?

Well, I solved it just after I posted this. I opened up the Safari Preferences, then went to the TABS section, and set "Open pages in tabs instead of windows: to NEVER", and unchecked "⌘-click opens a link in a new tab". That set it back to open in new windows.
Tabs work if I am making quick tabs to refer to something. Horrible if I want to compare two websites side by side. So, by disabling the auto TAB function, I'm back to the way I prefer my browser to work, rather than the way something thinks I ought to use it.
Don't care about having all my browsers behavior the same. If I wanted that, I would have run those browsers.

Safari 3.1's right click problem opening links in new tabs

For those of us who use a two-button mouse and like to open links in new tabs, Safari 3.1 has introduced problems that didn't previously exist. Right-click to open a new tab, then go back to the original document, and the problem appears. The mouse cursor no longer underlines links that are scrolled over. That makes it hard to tell if links are live or not. To restore that capacity, you have to left click somewhere on the page. Only then does normally underlining resume.
A minor thing, but one that adds dozens of clicks to my day that weren't there before. Is there any way to avoid it?

I have exactly the same problem, and i dont know what could be the reason. i tried different things, reapir permissions, reinstall Safari, clear the cache without any result. also if the link has a floating/bubble window (or what), it freezes too, and have to click somewhere else into the page to clear them. very annoying. =(
...on Windows it works correctly by the way...

When I right click on a link "Open link in new tab" since a few days, it "jumps over" the tab to the right and opens in the tab next to that. How can I change this back to opening in the tab next to the page from which I opened as it used to be?

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 > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Why does right-click & "Open Link in New Tab" make the original tab name to change to "New Tab" when I back-arrow in the original tab to reach the original page

I use Google as my home page.
When I do a search in Google I have a practice of opening the search links in a new tab by right-clicking on the link and selecting "Open Link in New Tab". That way I can examine multiple links from the search page, which is now open in the first tab.
The problem that occurs is that when I use the back-arrow in the Navagation bar to return the first tab to its original page, I find the tab name of the original page to be "New Tab" rather than "Google" and I have to click on the "Reload current page" in the Navigation bar to return the tab name to "Google".
I'm using Firefox-25 on a Linux-Mint 64-bit platform with KDE-4.9.5.

The problem is just with the name of the tab, not with the contents of the page -- the page looks normal??
I ask about the page because Firefox 23 seems to have introduced a problem with Firefox's "fast back-forward cache" on the Google search results page. It is related to the "instant prediction results" feature interacting with Firefox is some different way. (More in this thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/970863?page=2#answer-485663])
Might be related. Not sure.

When I right click and select open link in new tab, it leaves the page I am on and takes me to the first tab to the right

I usually have many tabs open when I read the news, and it is nice to select open links in new tabs while scrolling through a news' home page. Lately, however, Mozilla has been opening the new tab, but switches the page I am viewing to the first tab to the right of the home page. For example, I had ESPN.com open, and then a few Facebook tabs after that to the right. Whenever I would select open link in new tab, the tab I was viewing would switch from ESPN.com to the first Facebook tab to the right, and the new tab would open a little further down the line. Any chance anyone knows how to fix this?

"Open Link in New Tab" doesn't remember first page in history

I recently noticed that the "Open Link in New Tab" is not remembering the very first page in the tab history. The replication is simple.
# Go to any page (Google works well)
# Right click and chose to open a link on the page in a new tab
# On the new tab, left click a link to load a new page
# The "Go back one page" button will remain grey and you will not be able to go back to the first page for the tab.
# Left click another link and the "Go back one page" button will now be active allowing you to go to the previous page, but not all the way back to the first page of the tab.
This happens whether I use the middle mouse or a right click and chose open in new tab. It is present since I upgraded to Firefox 4.0, but was also happening before the upgrade when I was using Firefox 3.6.

I have the same problem. There are two other problems that might be related. The first one is, sometimes it seems like Firefox loses focus of the page so if I try to refresh the page using CTRL-R or the refresh button, nothing happens. The only way to refresh the page is to hit CTRL-L and Enter as it you're opening the page again. The second problem happens when another window is opened (e.g. new window, new bookmark window from CTRL-SHIFT-B). When you go back to the original window, everytime you go to the tab that the new window was opened from, somehow Firefox brings the window to the front, but the focus is still on the tab.
