Tweak the default Firefox tile(New Tab) to make it like Speed Dial.

Is it possible to tweak the default Firefox tile(new Tab) to make it like Speed Dial?
For example, add google.com to the first tile, firefox.org on the second,etc...
It is possible to do it without downloading add-ons?
Thanks.

That is how it works.

How do I change the default zoom for New Tab only?

The New Tab zoom in Firefox 33 is too high to see all 12 of my thumbnails. I changed it using ctrl- but the next time I opened a New Tab, the zoom was back at 100%. How do I change the default zoom for New Tab only?

I ended up reformating the drive as FAT32 because I still need to use it on my Windows 98SE system also. I did have a problem with the allocation size. I wanted to use 512 bytes but it kept failing so I used the default size(8192 bytes) and then it worked fine. I didn't think there would be a problem formatting as NTFS but since you are having problems I just tried it. It failed at 512 bytes allocation size so I tried again using 4096 bytes, the default, as the allocation size and it failed again. It looks like these drives will not format as NTFS.
Also, I think I figured out what's going on with the ReadyBoost problem. As I said initially it wouldn't work with ReadyBoost then after I had 12GB of data on the drive the ReadyBoost feature started working. After I deleted all the files it quit working again. After doing some reading on the net about Flash drives and ReadyBoost problems it appears that the memory chips on my Lenovo Flash drive are mixed with both fast memory chips that work fine with ReadyBoost and slower memory chips that are too slow for ReadyBoost. Apparently, after I fill up the portion of memory with data that uses the slow chip(s) then ReadyBoost works fine with the fast chip(s). I also verified the Flash drives read and write memory speeds using Vista's Event Viewer. To work with ReadyBoost the Flash drive has to read at a minimum of 2.5MB/s (for 4KB random reads) and write at a minimum of 1.75MB/s (for 512KB random writes).
Let me know what you find out.

How do I change the default Firefox Start Page tab to a tab I want

When I start my FF browser with my chosen homepage, a default tab labeled "Mozilla Firefox Start Page" appears. I would like change that tab permanently from Firefox to Facebook. How do I do that?

Thanks, it worked. I didn't try it before because I thought it would change my original home page, but it didn't. So basically I have two home pages - one as the main page and one as a tab. Thanks again!

The "+" to add a new tab is missing from my tabs in Firefox 4. How do I restore that "+" so I can quickly add a tab to the tab bar?

The "+" to add a new tab has disappeared after installing Firefox 4.0. How do I restore it? I am talking about the tab bar at the top of the screen

Restore your default toolbar by going to Customize - Restore Default Set. I just found it out myself.

When I open a new firefox window, and click the + to open a new tab, my first page disappears - I can only seem to return to it by closing all the other tabs.

The issue occurs like this:
1. Open a new window
2. Enter a URL and go to a page (any page).
3. Click the + and open a new tab.
4. The first tab is no longer visible in the tabs bar.
5. I keep opening lots of other tabs and the first tab stays invisible (all the others stay visible / accessible).
6. The only way I've found to return to the first tab is to close all my other tabs.
This doesn't always happen (i.e. I can have two firefox windows open and only one of them does it!)
I'm not sure if it's a feature or something? But it's very annoying!
Any ideas welcomed.
Thanks

Hi - yes I can! I hadn't noticed that little arrow before, thanks.
However I would really like to stop it hiding the first tab all the time.... Even when I navigate to the first tab using that "list all tabs" arrow, it still remains 'hidden' (i.e. I can't see a tab up the top, even when that tab is active. And when I navigate away from it to another tab, it is invisible again).
Any ideas?
Thanks

I downloaded iMesh and I can't stop it from automatically popping up each time I request a new tab. I have uninstalled the program, but I want to stop it from defaulting as a new tab. I tried uninstalling, but it is no longer installed as an add-on

I downloaded iMesh and I can't stop it from automatically popping up each time I request a new tab. I have uninstalled the program, but I want to stop it from defaulting as a new tab. I tried uninstalling the add on and plug in, but it is no longer installed as an add-on or plug in. How do I get the "new tab" request to simply open with a blank address in the address box instead of www.imesh.com.

Ok, I finally managed to get rid of it.
First I did the thing with the about:config but I flitered for imesh instead and managed to reset two thing but when I got to the keyword.URL I got the same thing as lolbabe98 did with the "An attempt to change your search engine or homepage was blocked."
Then I did a search on my C: drive for iMesh and discovered some things that hadn't been removed even though I had unistalled both the toolbar and the actual program. After that it worked fine and I now have a regular "untitled" tab when I open a new tab.
One last thing, when I tried to remove some of the files there was one that said it was in use, it was called datamanagerUI or something rather. The only thing I had to do there was to open Task Manager and kill a process called DATAMN~1 and I was able to remove it. Hope this helps.

[SOLVED] ok, so ever since I downloaded the newer version of Firefox my tabs icon (+) on the top is gone. I know I can hit cntrl T, but I really like just clicking the + which opens a new tab. How do I get that back??

How do I get that back?? I've looked around the HELP section and can only find info about what tabs are etc... Even in all the picutres about the feature it shows the + icon at the top of the page to open a new one. What do I do??

NM, got it fixed. Thanks!!!

Google Toolbar Options, in the Search tab, make sure that '''Enable the Google new tab page''' is check-marked. If that doesn't fix it for you, see this for support information about the Google Toolbar.

As far as your UserAgent showing Firefox 3.0.11, see this:

Try disabling the Ask Toolbar extension.

The "+" sign which opens NEW TAB has stopped working. I have to open a new window each time. I tried uninstalling firefox and installing again but the problem still persists. Somebody guide me on this.

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.

Why does rightclick+t on a link open the link in a new tab, yet rightclick+t on a bookmark on the toolbar grays it out?

This happens to be more of an issue using a trackpad. Then you rightclick on a link and then hit "t" it opens the link in a new tab. when you do the same command on on a bookmark on your bookmark toolbar, it grays the bookmark out. none of the settings have been changed on it. the way to fix it, i discovered is to right click on the bookmark and hit "p" no idea why, but this solved it. I can't find any of these command online, partly i don't know how to correctly search the rightclick command, but partly, it would only probably list the commands that actually show up as stuff to click with your mouse.
I would also like to know why for two different locations that both open a link in a new tab, why the mapped shortcuts are different. for a link, it is rightclick+t, for a bookmark it is rightclick+w. I mean, make it the same commands, it makes much more sense that way.

Because the "T" in "Open Link in New Tab" is underscored in the link context menu (right-click menu)
You are on Windows 7 and by default Microsoft hid that useful information by default in all of their menus.
See item #9 on my page [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/windows-7/win7.htm Windows 7 Home Premium]
Restore missing underscored letters in menus (turned off by default in Windows 7)
 Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Ease of Access Center (WinKey+U) → Make the keyboard easier to use
   [x] Turn on Toggle keys
   [x] Underline keyboard shortcuts and access keys
   [  ] Prevent windows from being automatically arranged when moved to the edge of the screen.
Toggle keys appears both under mouse and under keyboard in Ease of use / Accessibility options.
 Though I would like to activate the last option, preventing windows from being automatically arranged
would also deactivate my favorite Windows 7 added WinKey+<arrowkey> keyboard shortcuts to resize window to left/normal/right side, or to maximize/norm/minimize window.  On a dual/extended monitors this would be left/norm/right on each monitor so left/right arrow actually have six positions passing between monitors.
 Please mark "Solved" one answer that will best help others with a similar problem -- hope this was it.

How to control the content of a new tab

When I open a new tab it starts on a page that I do not want. So how do I change the initial web location of a new tab?

A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank). 
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.

In Firefox v33, new tab page thumbnails are blurry and over-sized

Since updating to Firefox v33, my new tab page thumbnails are blurry. They are also over-sized compared to what they were before the update.

Firefox automatically adjusts the number of columns that fit on the about:newtab page if you adjust the width of the Firefox window or zoom the page in or out and no longer resizes the thumbnails.
The current release doesn't resize the thumbnails, but instead reduces the number of tiles to fit the current screen width, so you may not see the number of columns that is specified via the browser.newtabpage.columns pref.
Zoom out the about:newtab page to see more tiles.
Make sure that you have only one tab with the about:newtab page open.

Extensions like Ghostery, WOT or AdBlock stop working after two or three times. Restarting the webpage in a new tab the extensions will work again for several times and then stop again. Has anybody an explanation or a workaround for this bug in Safari 5?
