What happened to right-click on Bookmarks?

If I open Bookmarks and right-click on a website, why are "Open bookmark in a new Tab" and "Open Bookmark in a new window" greyed out? In previous versions, I could just open a bookmarked item in a new tab, but Firefox 4 won't allow me to do this.

Firefox doesn't have such context menu entries for "Open Bookmark ...". So it looks that there has been a problem with the extension that added them and that started working again.

"Bookmark This Page" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of that browser page or via "(Firefox) > Bookmarks > Bookmark This Page".

ONLY way i can print and image in firefox is to save it then open saved file then print.
if this is not something easily fixed then firefox gets deleted........ please help.

Been there, been that frustrated over Firefox not having a Contextual Menu Print item - been shaking my head over that since August of 2002 when I switched from IE6 to Phoenix 0.3 ''(the early development version of what became known as Firefox)''.
Fortunately Firefox is so extensible that many extension developers early on "fixed" that glaring deficiency or oversight. Extensions are your friend in Firefox! You don't like a feature, change it; something is "missing", add it!
As cor-el mentioned, the Universal Print extension adds the Right-click menu item and there are other extensions that add that menu item, too.
Here's two more that add that feature:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/printprint-preview/
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/print-edit/
The last one is phenomenal! Allows you to edit a page in Print Preview to get rid of advertisements, unnecessary navigation sidebars, and lessen the number of sheets of paper needed to print longer articles - basically make your own "printer ready" pages when the website doesn't have that feature.

What happened to right-click burn disk?

If I recall correctly, if you wanted to burn a cd before, you put the blank cd in the Mac then dragged the files you wanted to burn on top of the cd icon and then right-clicked the cd icon and chose "burn-disk". This seems to be gone in Leopard for some reason.

you can still do it almost as easily. there is a burn button next to the CD icon in finder sidebar and there is another one if you open the CD in finder. as to why it was removed from the right-click menu you have to ask apple. this is a user to user forum and nobody here can answer that.

What happened to Right Click

I've got two mighty mouses and the right click on both of them seems to have died. Did I do something wrong? I've got right click turned on in System Preferences. Is there some history of a hardware problem with these things? It's super frustrating.
Alternatively, is there a way to get a right click out of universal access keyboard controls? I get that enter works as left click but the list of keyboard commands doesn't seem to have a command for right click.
Thanks.

is there a way to get a right click out of universal access keyboard controls?
If you are referring to the +Mouse Keys+ function, the 5 (center) key on the keypad is a mouse click (with the surrounding keypad numbers moving the cursor). I don't think Enter does anything. Since 5 is a mouse click, pressing Control and 5 is equal to a +Control Click+ (AKA "right click"). Obviously, pressing the Control key and clicking the mouse button will also give you a +Control Click+.
I've got two mighty mouses and the right click on both of them seems to have died.
If TWO Mighty Mouses have this problem at the same time, it is more likely that you have some corrupted preferences file that is preventing the "right side click" being +Control Click+ from working.
To test this possibility, create a new admin user account in System Preferences Accounts pane.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8235.html
Log out and log in to the new account (don't use Fast User Switching). See if you can get the +Control Click+ to work in the new user account, there is something wrong in your current user account and there is nothing wrong with the Mighty Mouse.

Cannot Right Click on Bookmarks (in Bookmarks Toolbar) if they are "Inside a folder" or under "Show more bookmarks" in OS X

I tried to right click on bookmarks in "Bookmarks Toolbar" which are "Inside a folder" or under "Show more bookmarks" to delete or rename them but nothing happened! like i didn't right click at all
but if a bookmark in Bookmarks Toolbar is not in a folder and is not under show more bookmarks its ok and i can right click o manage it
Now to delete a bookmark inside a folder i have to drag it outside and then right click and delete it or use bookmarks library, which is really annoying, shouldn't we be able to right click on bookmarks inside folders and delete them there?
Is there any shortcut key for example holding command and clicking to rename or delete a bookmark until this bug is fixed?

@jscher2000
Yea that works, i'm already doing that, but its really annoying if you want to rename or delete a bookmark you have to open bookmarks library and then find the bookmark there, then delete or rename it, i find the dragging way a little faster
I don't think this is going to be fixed soon, so im looking for a way to rename and delete bookmarks in Bookmarks Toolbar
I think many have this problem too i have also created a topic here:

The only way I can open a new tab is by right-clicking a bookmarked site and selecting "Open in a New Tab." I can't click on the New Tab + or CTR+T or open via File. WHY?!?

The only way I can open a new tab in Firefox is by right-clicking a bookmarked site and selecting "Open in a New Tab." I can't click on the New Tab + or CTR+T or open via File. WHY don't the other means work?

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

I wish to put my photo albums in alphabetical order. Advice was to right click on pane at left. I do not have a left pane on my i-pad and only have touch screen,what do I "right click" with and how do I get a "left pane" in my Photos folder?

I would like to put my i-pad photo albums into alphabetical order. The advice received previously was to "right click" on an album in the left pane. I do not have a left pane in my photos folder, how would I get this? Also I only have touch screen so what would I "right click" with? thank you

I don't have iPhoto on my iPad, so I can't help with that, but you must have looked at advice for a Mac computer? Maybe browse the iPhoto for iOS forum?

Why can't i right click a bookmark inside a folder on my favourites bar?

I can right click a bookmark on my favorites bar to open it in another tab and stuff, but i cant right click the bookmark when it's inside a folder?

Only because Apple didn't make that possible - although you can probably Command click it to open in a new tab.

What happens if I click on recovery 10.9.1

I am having problems with booting my wife's 2010 iMac. It never boots completely. I gets to a point where the screen flashes over and over a message something about opening (or not) windows which were open when I shut down.
When I hold the OPTION key at startup I get the 'option' to start up with my system hard drive or Recovery 10.9.1.
What happens if I click on Recovery 10.9.1?

OK!
Then what happens? I'm primarily concerned with the data that's on the Mac HD. Does it get erased or changed in any way?

Right click on bookmarks - options removed in 4. Beta?

Hi,
I'm sure in 3.n I right clicked on a bookmark to choose whether to open it in a new window or a new tab, or to flick through a number of bookmarks to open two or three at once. In 4.Beta when I right click a bookmark I don't get an option to open it in another window or new tab. I don't get an option to open it at all.
Was this removed deliberately? & if so why? Seems a wierd thing to take out.

Those options plus the usual others still show up when I right-click.

When I right-click, the same context menu opens up (the menu for hyperlinks, with "Open Link in New Tab" and the like) regardless of what/where I right-click.

Regardless of where I right-click on a displayed webpage (NOT the menu bar at the top of the screen), be it highlighted text, a blank spot in a webpage, or anything, the context menu for a hyperlink pops up (with the options for opening it in a new tab, window or private window, bookmarking), and none of the options actually do anything even if it is a hyperlink I'm clicking on. Using keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl + clicking work fine. I haven't installed any plugins recently, and it only started a few hours ago. Wat do?

Try disabling Firebug and see how it is.

Why can't I use Right-Click in Bookmarks (to delete) or on Tabs (to bookmark) anymore?

Much of the right-click mouse support seems to have been removed from Firefox - is there a reason for this?
Examples are in the Subject line.

You can change the order of the boxes on the about:newtab page and drag an item to a different tile to pin it to that position or you can remove a website by clicking the close X to block that URL.
You can drag a bookmark or history item and drop them in a tile on the about:newtab page to pin them and have your own favorites sites showing.
Changes made manually on the about:newtab page are stored in prefs that you can find on the about:config page.
*browser.newtabpage.pinned stores websites that you have pinned to a tile.
*browser.newtabpage.blocked stores websites that you have removed by clicking the X button in a tile.
So you can reset those prefs via the right-click context menu to reset changes made to the about:newtab page.

Why are the keyboard shortcuts for new window and new tab (N) and (W) instead of (W) and (T) when I right-click on bookmarks in my toolbar?

If I right click on a link in a page, the context menu allows me to open a new tab if I hit t on my keyboard and a new window if I hit w. In the bookmarks menu, these shortcuts change to w and n respectively. Hitting t results in deletion of the bookmark. Can this be changed so it is consistent with the in-page context menu?

You can middle-click a link to open the link in a new tab.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
