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.

Why when I click on a bookmark it doesn't open a new window, it takes over a window I am working on
Also, if you right click, the menu will include; '''''Open New Tab''''' and
'''''Open New Window'''''. -
Why when I click on a link a new window opens instead of a tab, this is new
When I click on a link a new window opens instead of a new tab. This is new. I've gone into tools and checked my settings and nothing changes it. It annoys me.
This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.<br>
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).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

hai i am using firefox 3.6.When right clicking on a link and a window opens up, i want it to ask me "Open Link in New tab" first, not second.
First, you are using a version of Firefox that is very old and outdated. Please update to at least Firefox 3.6.27, or more preferably, update to Firefox 10.0.2. There are lots of bug fixes, security improvements, and much improved performance in Firefox 10.
After you do that, try seeing if you are still having a problem. If you are, is this that when you try to select "Open in a new tab" it opens in a new window instead? Or something else? -

Frequently, when I click on a link, an option box will pop up asking whether to open in a new tab or new window and several other options, rather than simply opening in the same window or tab. When I try to return to the previous screen, it often will not let me, or provides options that I do not want. When I try to close a tab, an option box comes up that has several choices that I do not want and "close tab" at the bottom of the box. How to prevent these option boxes from popping up?
Turn of JavaScript. These are "per site" and generated by the site. They are not the normal function of the browser. This usually occurs on attack sites. I'd stay away from them.
The only "trusted" site I ever saw do something like this is Google, which asks me if I'm sure I want to close the tab that has their search results. I really pisses me off, but I have yet to find a way to stop it.
It is certainly bad coding behavior on the part of whomever designed the site. When a user clicks an action, it should be presumed, unless the action is potentially very destructive, that they intended to perform that action. A UI should never incessantly second guess the intentions of a user. -
Windows Mail wont bring up compose message when you click file send link in firefox
When I click "send link" under file in Firefox 3.6 Windows Mail will not bring up "compose message" . It just opens Windows Mail without the compose message. All defaults are set and it works fine with IE. Any help would be appreciated. Running Windows 7 64
There is usually a toolbar button in the editor to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each.

When I get a link sent in an email, the link no longer opens when I click on it. When I click on the link, Firefox and the open internet tabs appear on my screen, but the new link does not open. I must manually copy the link, then paste it in the address bar to get it to open.
I have the same problem with FF 3.6.13, and Mac OS 10.6.5.
Clicking links in Mail opens FF, but does not open the URL. Safari has no problems when I reset it as my default browser. The problem seems to develop over time. At first, links open fine, but then all of a sudden they won't.
My remedy has been to reinstall FF, but I've had to do it twice in the last couple of weeks, which is getting a bit annoying.
I have not experienced the problem on either of my two older Macs (running 10.4, and 10.5). -
The link that shows up in the e-mail I send cannot be opened, there is no hyperlink I believe.

Sometimes when I click on a website link, Firefox goes crazy with trying to open new tabs... it keeps going until I force quit. How can I stop this?
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== I clicked on a linkSee [[Firefox keeps opening many tabs or windows]]
You can have infinite tabs opening if you have selected Firefox as the application to handle a file if you get an ''Open with'' download window.
Firefox should not be selected as the application to handle a file and you have to remove the action that is associated with that file type.
You can delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/mimeTypes.rdf mimeTypes.rdf] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] to reset all actions or set that action in Tools > Options > Applications to 'Always Ask'.

For example:
If I am at
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/
and I click on
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/Quakes/quakes_all.php
the original URL is replaced by the new on, and I must reenter the old URL to get back to it.Open the link in a new tab by:
*right-click the link and choose "Open link in New Tab"
*Ctrl+left-click the link (to open in a new tab)
*middle-click the link (to open in a new tab) (middle-click = press the mouse wheel) -
For some time now and after firefox has automatically been updated a few times, I click on images or links which are supposed to open in a new window automatically. A new window opens but it is blank with no toolbars, just an adress bar with nothnig in it.
mha007, Thank you. I walked through your suggested solutions and finally disabled all add-ons and restarted them one by one. The culprit seems to be ViewSourceWith 0.8.11. Interestingly when it is enabled I had to go to TaskManager to force Firefox to quit.
Maybe this information will help others. I don't know if the cache clearing etc helped but I would suggest that others start but Bringing up Firefox in Safe Mode (hold shift when you select the icon), disable all add-ons and then start them one by one.
Of course if you have ViewSourceWith maybe you should just disable it first rather than go through the tedium of restarting each add-on separately. To get to the add-ons when it won't open from the toolbar type about:addons in the address area.
