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.
Pick  your choice.

  • When holding on a link, why don't I have the option to open in a new tab?

    I'm trying to open PDFs and PowerPoint though my school website angel. When getting to the link that opens the power point or PDF, my classmates are able to hold on the link and get options one of which is to open In a new tab. I do have the option to copy, open, or put on reading list but do not have the option to open in a new tab so that way I can open it with a app. Anyone know why?

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

  • Why is the option to open new links in a new window not available?

    Hi, I'd like to select the option to open new links in a new window instead of new tab but the option is greyed out. Can anyone help me on this, please? I tried to untick "Block popup windows" to see if that would help but it didn't.

    Do you mean the setting in Options > Tab or in the right-click context menu of a link on web pages?
    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

  • The option to open a new tab is not working?

    The option to open a new tab is not working?
    I click on the little box but nothing happens?

    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

  • HT4550 I just installed Snow Leopard 10.6 on my 2007 Mac Probook. I need to upgrade my safari or install a newer version. How do I do this? I can't find any installation links.

    I just installed Snow Leopard 10.6 on my 2007 Mac Probook. I need to upgrade my safari or install a newer version. How do I do this? I can't find any installation links.

    Thank you for your response. I downloaded Safari 5.1.7. I don't know if I was successful because the system requirements called for 10.6.8, and I recently downloaded Snow Leopard 10.6.3

  • Documents in Safari no longer give me the option to open in iBooks. What happened???

    The link to pdf documents, from Safari to iBooks, has ceased to exist on my iPad. What happened &amp; how to fix??? In the past, when opening a pdf thru Safari, just tapping on it, brought  up the option to "Open in iBooks", but it no longer pops up. Ugh. Help??

    That's correct. You will need to open the PDF in Safari first, then tap Open in "iBooks" (or "Open in ..." to send to other available apps). If the tool bar for this isn't readily visible, tap anywhere on the document to display it.

  • Upgraded to Firefox 23 and now my yahoo bookmarks don't have the option to open all tabs in a folder. How can I do this.

    The option to open all tabs in a folder is not available any more on my yahoo toolbar. On this computer and my home computer which I just upgraded to firefox 23 and that option disappeared. I need to open all tabs in a folder at one.

    Hi ziccs, is the missing feature to open a group of bookmarks all at once in separate tabs?
    I haven't explored the Yahoo! toolbar in detail, but it was just updated recently. I noticed the description "new user interface" on the versions page. You also can use that page to re-install the earlier version and see whether the missing function returns.

    Unfortunately Pakistan is one of those countries where media isn't available from iTunes - when that might change we won't know (we are fellow users on here) until if/when Apple announce something.
    Are there other music purchase download sites available there ? Or you can copy your CDs via your computer's iTunes and sync them to your phone

    in ical I just added new calendars to a pre-existing calendar group, I can make events with these calendars, but not reminders, any suggestions?

    Hi,
    Lion has changed the way reminders (todos as was) work. They now seem to need to be in a seperate calendar.
    In iCal open the File menu and select New Reminder List... and select where to put it.
    Best wishes

    Dear Tim,
    I saw your message. Below are the problems:
    Whenever I connect my iphone 3GS to my PC through a USB. My itunes software comes up automatically.
    1. After that a message appears from the itunes that states that 'itunes could not connect to the itunes store, an unknown error cccured (306).
    2. After the above, an alert message comes up which states that A new iphone software version 5.1 is availlable for my iphone. It then states would you like to download it and update your iphone now? With the options buttons as Cancel or Download and Update or Download Only. Whenever I clicked on Download and Update or Download Only, the next message that comes up is that The iphone Software Update Server Could not be Contacted and suggest make sure your network setting are correct and active or try again later.
    The above is the challenges I am facing now.

  • Downloaded photoshop elements 12 it is giving me the option to open with... what do i do

    I HAVE THEN OPENED UP FIREFOX AND HAVE DOWNLOADED IT ON THAT. NOW IT IS GIVING ME THE OPTION TO OPEN WITH?
    PLEASE HELP ME HOW DO I OPEN THIS TO INSTALL

    Wow.  That's weird.
    Is your iPad jailbroke?  If it is, all bets are off.  If it is not jailbroke, keep reading.
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • When I run a report from a certain website, it is in Excel format. Currently I have only the option to save it. I also want the option to open it. How do I get this option back? [SOLVED]

    In IE, when I run these reports, I have the option to Open, Save, or Cancel. In Firefox it just goes directly to a folder to Save, there is no Open option, which I need. I want to view the report immediately, not save it.

    I figured it out - Tools, Options, Applications. For Excel, change to Always Ask.
