Since being upgraded to 3.6.11 CTRL+N doesn't open a new window
My Firefox was updated to 3.6.10 yesterday (3.6.11 today) and now when I try and use CTRL+N to open a new window, nothing happens.
File - New Window doesn't work either.
I can open new tabs
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

Since switching to Firefox this week, when I click on a hyperlink in an e-mail in Outlook, I get this message, "General failure. An error occurred in sending the command to the application." It doesn't open a new window or do anything. Any work around to fix this?
See this lnk for a fix, it worked for me!

Clicking "Open a New Tab" button or "Ctrl+T" doesn't open a new tab any more. How do I get that functionality back?
When I click, type or use the File menu or try right-clicking mouse to open a new tab, nothing happens. However I am able to open links in a new tab.The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Evidently something in that extension isn't compatible with a Firefox security fix. Disable that extension or un-install it.
How do I "disable" or "un-install it"? -
Since I upgraded to the latest os my spotlight doesn't seem to work anymore and the headings across the to keep disappearing and appearing
I think I figured out Firefox, I went under Help > Troubleshooting Information > Reset Firefox.
I only have one account on my computer. Honestly I don't even really know how multiple accounts work. I've never played around with it. I already allowed Java - should I disable it? -
Since I started using FireFox version 4, every time I open a "new window", all other instances of FireFox windows open up. This is annoying as it often covers up instances I am currently using with instances that I don't wish to use right now. I can't seem to find a way to keep this behavior from occurring.
Try go to '''about:config''' search for '''browser.startup.homepage''' change its value to:
'''about:home''' - default page<br>
'''about:blank''' - blank page<br>
'''url''' - a page that you want

since installing the latest version... when I open a new window it opens everything I have minimized too... very annoying. How can I fix this, I minimize to go back to a window not have multiple windows open.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== after installed last version...Well, then isn't there some way to induce Firefox to give Windows parameters that make it open the fershlugginer window in the *same* position, instead of an offset position?

I'm running Firefox 7.0.1 on Windows 7
I upgraded AVG to 2012.0.1831
Now when I open a new tab it opens to the AVG secure search page
This is not a problem but it irritates me
How do I get a new tab to open to a blank page?You can look at one of these extensions:
* NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
* New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/ -
Hi
I just want to report this bug in hope it will be fixed asap
The wheel click button does not open a new window since the latest update (9.0.1)
Thank youMiddle-click or click the scroll-wheel on a hyperlink has always opened a '''new Tab'''. Any chance you had an add-on that changed that action, and now that add-on is disabled or incompatible?

In the past, when I opened up a new tab, I used to get the Speed Dial page. I like that. However, since I updated my AVG anti-virus program, now when I open a new tab, I get the AVG search page. Can I change it back so that I get the Speed Dial?
I had that too. On the bottom right of the AVG search page is a link which leads you to where you can switch it off. This restores normal Speed Dial operation.
This hijacking has really cheesed me off. I've just downloaded Avast and am going to put it on in place of AVG. -
I cannot open a new window for FireFox.
Invisible windows appears when trying to open a new window. These windows are listed in the Window list on the menu, but I cannot switch to them or close them. This also occurs when I try to "View Source". This was not a problem prior to my 6.0 upgrade.
The Downloads Window cannot be accessed either.
This is very annoying. Is this a bug? Or is there a fix.If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem. -
When I open a new window (Ctrl+N), I want a blank page to appear. I do not want my home pages opened. How can I do that?
A new window opens by default with the home page(s).<br />
If you want a blank window then you need to open an about:blank page in a new window.<br />
You can do that with a bookmark that you open with a Shift+ left-click in a new window.<br />
Otherwise you need to set the Home page to a blank page and use a bookmark to open the preferred Home page in a new tab. -

Ever since I upgraded my iPhone 4 to Version 5, all the new apps that I try to download keeps saying "waiting" on my phone... It won't open or download! Only the old apps that I already had before I upgraded my phone works. Please help!!!
Try resetting the iPhone.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
It won't open or download!
If that doesn't help tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings -
Unable to open new window (but able to open new tabs).
Sometimes unable to open Add-ons tab.
The add-on extensions do not seem to be working, even though they seem to be ENABLED (except adblock plus).
When restarting in safe mode, or disabling ALL add-ons the browser works normally, thus new windows open, add-on tab opens etc.
Tried to enable one thing at a time, but it seems that when enabling WHICHEVER TWO add-ons, firefox starts acting "weirdly" (no new windows etc.).
Tried disabling hardware acceleration, but it didn't solve the problem.
Tried uninstalling firefox and then reinstalling. At first it all seemed working perfectly well: new windows opened, extensions working etc. But after a couple of restarts (of firefox and computer) it all got back to the same situation.
Tried uninstalling ALL add-ons and everything worked well. After installing the SECOND add-on and restarting firefox things get "wrong" again.
It all started after upgrading to Firefox 20.0.1.Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you. -
Middle clicking works properly otherwise.
This started happening since I upgraded to Firefox 3.6.22.Never mind, the solution has been posted here:
