Unable to open in another tab

I used to be able to right-click on a link and ask for it to be opened in another tab. That option is on the right-click menu, but nothing happens. I am using Windows XP, Firefox 36.04

I have the same problem in safe mode. And when I create a new profile.
I have reinstalled after deleting the Firefox folder.
I have run Malware.
I am at my wits' end.

  • I'm unable to open a new tab on my window, what do I do?

    I installed mozilla firefox 17.0.1 since then I'm unable to open a new tab when i click on the + icon on the right of the other tab.

    You can also try to update to Firefox 18.
    *Help > About Firefox
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/update-firefox-latest-version
    Another possible cause to consider is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Opening a pdf document open in another tab prevents the mouse scroll wheel from responding in the current tab. I have observed this behaviour since version 3.x.

    Right click on link for pdf document and "Open in another tab"
    Immediately, the mouse wheel scroll function stops working in the current tab (or any other open tabs).
    It's not a deal breaker, just a strange annoyance.

    Using similar scroll function on my netbook. To add to the above, I find that using scroll is actually causing the PDF to scroll rather than the tab I'm actually in.

    You installed a variant of the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
    This malware has many variants. Anyone else finding this comment should not expect it to be applicable.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.2c232f1e4d12129e.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.2c232f1e4d12129e.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.2c232f1e4d12129e.helper.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/2c232f1e4d12129e
    /System/Library/Frameworks/v.framework
    The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • When I select a "compose email" from my GoDaddy email page, it opens up another whole Foxfire window. I can't seem to have it open into another tab instead.

    When I select a "compose email" from my GoDaddy email web page, it opens up another whole new Foxfire window. I can't seem to have it open into the existing Foxfire window but just another tab instead.

    Firefox diverts most new windows to tabs, but there is an exception when a website uses a script to specify the window's dimensions or removes some toolbars. To remove the exception, you can make a change under the covers. This could be awkward for genuine dialog windows that don't make sense to view in a separate tab, but if you find it more annoying than useful, you can easily switch back.
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (3) Confirm that the '''browser.link.open_newwindow''' preference is set to its default value of 3 (divert new windows to a tab instead), or right-click > Reset to get that value
    (4) Double-click the '''browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction''' preference and change the value from 2 to 0 (that's a zero) and click OK
    Any luck?
    For future reference, the possible values for the window/tab preferences are:
    <strong>(A) browser.link.open_newwindow</strong>
    3 = divert new window to a new tab (<u>default</u>) (checked*)
    2 = allow link to open a new window (unchecked*)
    1 = force new window into same tab
    <strong>*</strong> First checkbox in Options &gt; Tabs
    <strong>(B) browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction</strong> - for links in Firefox tabs
    0 = apply the setting under (A) to ALL new windows (even script windows)
    2 = apply the setting under (A) to normal windows, but NOT to script windows with features (<u>default</u>)
    1 = override the setting under (A) and always use new windows
    <strong>(C) browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external</strong> - for links in other programs
    -1 = apply the setting under (A) to external links (<u>default</u>)
    3 = open external links in a <u>new tab</u> in the last active window
    2 = open external links in a <u>new window</u>
    1 = open external links in the <u>last active tab</u> replacing the current page

  • Unable to Open Process Route Tab in DIR (PLM webUI page)

    Hello PLM Guru's
    I am unable to open the Process Route Tab in the DIR Web UI page.I get an error message for "Name: AcfApplet, Publisher : SAP AG , Location :http://..../com_sap_acf_updown.jar".When I click run it keeps running but not opening the Process route page. This does not happen when I open Process route for BOM/Material Master.
    Is there any problem with my browser settings or any SAP config?
    Kindly advice.
    Thanks & Regards
    Jo Pz

    Hi Jo,
    the issue can be with your Java version and SAP ACF version. SAP has just released a new version of ACF which should be compatible with the latest Java version.
    You can try to look on the following SAP notes (take the first as first):
    1224097 - PLM Web User Interface: Installation of Applets
    1868468 - ACF: file upload/download security warning mixed mode
    1958459 - AcfUpDownload, AcfExecute, ActiveXControl: Events werden nicht verarbeitet
    1854273 - ACF-WDABAP: ACFExecute/Upload: Focus problem
    Best regards

  • Whenever I click the + Tab to open a new tab, it doesn't do anything. It seems like it has a safety lock on or something. It will not allow me to open up another tab in the same window.

    I try to open up another webpage on the same window, by clicking on the + Tab Button next to the current webpage Im viewing. For some reason it will not do anything. It will not open up.

    This problem has been associated with the Ask toolbar. You could try disabling it here:
    Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
    You may want to update to 3.6.17 to take advantage of security fixes.

  • Will deleting my you tube app affect my youtube accounts becuase since uploading the latest Apple update, everytime I go to click on something on my youtube page, it switches to the app and then comes back and opens up another tab and never did that

    I am having a problem with my youtube account, as since updating to iOS 8.3, the other day, every time I go to my youtube account and click on anything there by opening up a tab, it always goes to the youtube app and then goes back and opens a new tab.  Everytime I have updated, it seems to get worse not better.  One other thing that happened that has not been fixed yet when I updated a while ago, was that when you have many tabs open and go back and forth between them, it aleays reloads and does not stay the way you left it.  Wish Apple would get it right and especially with youtube issues.  So my question regarding my youtube account would be if I can delete the youtube app, without affecting my account.

    If you delete the YouTube app you will not be affecting your YouTube account.  You can always reinstall it & see if that fixes the problem.
    As far as Safari pages reloading between tabs, I have also noticed the issue after iOS 8 on my iPad 2.  Updating to the latest iOS on older devices can see a degradation in performance within certain apps due to the limitations of those devices. 
    We made the choice to update & with the many benefits of the latest & greatest iOS there are bound to be some problems too,
