  • [Open a new tab] doesn't work after the last update!

    Firefox just updated today and now all the sudden when I try to press the [+] to open a new tab nothing happens. Mousing over it even says it's still the same button. It's odd and rather inconvenient.
    Firefox is updated to Version 29.0.1

    Hello,
    try to uninstall your Firefox and then reinstall your Firefox.

  • QuickTime movies cannot display properly, refresh doesn't work propely for html files on hard disk, opening a new tab doesn't work

    Hi!
    I have tried Firefox V4 (but have since reused V3.6.16). The following problems were found:
    a. Cannot display the controls used for QuickTime movies.
    b. The refresh button doesn't function at all if the html files reside on the hard disk. I do this because I need to test the appearance of the web page before uploading to the server.
    This problem also exists for v3.6.14 to v3.6.16
    c. When opening a new tab, it doesn't work. Instead, it will open another instance of the browser. By right, it has to open the web page on the same instance of the browser.
    This is my feedback.
    Thanks!!!!! :)

    I had some advice to try recording QT audio and adding to the slide.  Now, when recording to Quicktime, it does embed it, but in recording the presentation, it either doubles up the audio giving a strange echo or does the same thing if you ever edit the presentation.
    The problem Keynote has is that the sound and image content are not locked together which causes out of sync errors. This is why many users choose video editing applications when using sound in the presentations, as they have both image and audio tracks to sync sound properly together.
    Start a new presentation to remove the previous sound recording, Keynote is holding onto the other sound files.
    Add the graphic items to each slide and one sound file to each slide for the voice over
    1 - In Inspector > Transitions;  use start transitions automatically and set each transitions delay to the duration of the individual sound file.
    2 - In QT export, set Fixed Timing and delete the value in the duration box, QT will then use the custom timings for each individual slide.
    This procedure does work exactly as needed, Iv used this for nearly 6 years using 4 different versions of Keynote.

  • The "Open a new tab" does not work

    I've just updated to Firefox 3.6.17. When I try to open up a new tab by pressing the button on the right of the existing tab, nothing happens.

    Un-install the '''''Ask Toolbar''''', which has been reported to cause this problem. It is the responsibility of Ask to fix the problem with their toolbar. Click on "More system info..." to the right of your original question to see your User-agent which indicates that you have the Ask '''''Toolbar''''' installed.

  • Opening links in a RSS feed using the Open in New Tab/Window command doesn't work in FF4. It worked perfectly in FF 3.6. What seems to be the problem?

    I have set up a number of RSS feeds to open in folders underneath the search/address bar in Firefox. I use them mainly to follow news updates from newspaper websites etc. After installing FF4, the opening of links contained in those folders (lists of links) using right-click and selecting the Open in New Tab command stopped working. There is no response whatsoever - as if I didn't click the command.

    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.

  • 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

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

  • When I click on the "Open a new tab" button, nothing is happening. I've checked my settings but everything is fine, what's wrong?

    Just a couple days ago all of a sudden the "Open a new tab" button wasn't working and even going into "file" and then "open new tab" it doesn't open a new tab. I have to go into my bookmarks and right click "open in new tab" for any new tab to open. I've checked my settings and nothing is there about it. Is there anything that I can do to fix it?

    You're welcome

  • Open a New tab is not working

    The "Open A New Tab" button has stopped working. Everything else seems to be OK. I've checked my settings against those in my other computer and they match. This is a 64 bit Toshiba with a 500 gb hard drive and 8 megs of Ram. I hope you have a suggestion. Oh - this is running Firefox v3.6.18 - I tried reloading it to no avail. I am using 3.6.18 because my "Identity Card Safe & Logins" (Norton Product with Norton Security Suite) does not appear with the latest version of Firefox and I store my passwords etc there. It does not appear above the bar at the top. Itried and then removed the latest version and reinstalled 3.6.18 - the tab did work after re-instillation. This is a new problem.

  • Why does right clinking on link and selecting open in new tab does not work?

    Why does right clinking on link and selecting open in new tab does not work?
    It opens up a blank page. The only way to make the link work is to click on the navigation bar in the new tab and press enter to reload the link.

    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?<br/> ''A troubleshooting mode.''<br />
    1.You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut. <br />
    2. Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.''

  • How do I get a new tab to open? Clicking on the "Open A New Tab" (+) does nothing.

    I use to be able to open multiple tabs on Firefox by clicking the + (Open A New Tab). Now nothing happens when I click this button.

    Uninstall the '''''Ask Toolbar''''' ('''''if you have it installed'''''). It can cause that problem.

  • I have tried everything suggested to get rid of the "Open a new tab" search page.

    I just bought a new computer with Windows7. I downloaded and installed Firefox 18.0.1 about a week ago.
    I am trying to get the history icon page to open when I click the "Open a new tab".
    Some of the things I've tried (like resetting Firefox and installing the add-on) worked but only until I shut down.
    When I load Firefox again, that pesky search page ("Open a new tab") is back.
    How can I get the history icon page to stay permanently from day to day?

    No addons, extensions or user.js file.
    Problem persists.

  • I'm using FF 3.5.18 and I do not want newer versions because : using in the Open in New Tab page opens the near tab and not as a FF 3.5.18 or is it possible to do that open in new tabs would be the end. of the new FF version

    You can change a preference to make tabs open
    # at the end of all open tabs
    # immediately after the current tab.
    See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config
    *Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and press the Enter key.
    *If you see the warning, accept it (promise to be careful).
    *Filter = browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent
    *Look at the "Value" column ('''false'''=open at end, '''true'''=open after current tab); Value = true is the default.
    *Double-click that preference to toggle the value from true to false, or false to true
    *Restart Firefox (File > Restart Firefox)

  • How do I get a Vista 64 bit XP machine to show a "+" icon on the tab bar to "Open a new tab" and the "Open a new tab" icon on the far right of the Bookmarks tool bar?

    I have Firefox 4.0.1 installed on two laptops, one with Windows Vista, 64 bit and the other with Windows XP. Both machines have the "Open a new tab" icon on the far right of the Bookmarks tool bar. The XP machine also has a + icon on the tab bar to "Open a new tab" while the Vista machine does not have that + icon. I like using that; is there any way to get it on the Vista machine?

    After weeks of trying, I stumbled on the solution:
    # Right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip, select Customize... and the Customize Toolbar window will open.
    # At the bottom of the Customize Toolbar window, there are additional options for changing the appearance of the icons in your toolbars. From the Show drop-down menu, you can choose what to display in the toolbars — Icons, Text, or Icons and Text together. By default, Firefox just shows Icons.
    # Select Icons and Text
    # When you are finished making changes, click Done to close the Customize Toolbar window.
