WHEN I CLICK '+' TO OPEN HOME PAGE IN NEW TAB, IT SOMETIMES CLOSES THE BROWSER

No error message, no 'Not responding' - it just closes, as if I'd clicked on the 'X' in the browser's top right corner.

  • Wy does firefox open a new window when i click on "open link on a new tab"?????

    the only time i shutdown a window is when i shutdown firefox.
    having mutiple windows invites to mistakes. please fix.

    That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    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.

    I've been working on this all day!!! I've tried everything I know of and can't get it to load either. Sounds like lots of people are having problems. Here is what I have so far...I have uninstalled EVERYTHING on my pc from apple and reinstalled itunes to no avail. I have tried all sorts of things I've read as fixes online. NOTHING has worked. Here is something interesting that i have noticed though. my main pc (which is the one i have always managed my itunes account with for years) is a 32 bit system running windows 7. Yesterday I installed itunes for the first time on my new netbook which is a 64 bit (windows 7) system and it works just fine. i have three other laptops (all window 7) in my household that are all 64 bit operating systems and ALL have updated to 10.5 and THEY ALL work fine. this is FOUR 64 bit systems ALL updated w/10.5 that work and ONE that is a 32 bit that will not. Can't get any help from apple. their suppot *****! I want to get someone on the **** phone or a live chat but cant. *** APPLE????? please let mw know if you find SOMETHING i can try next. I'm out of ideas and patience!

  • Can I make the home page my new tab page?

    I referenced [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/824876?s=make+the+home+page+my+new+tab+page&as=s] and attempted to use about:home for the url but nothing happened.

    The referenced link deals with a different matter; the user wanted a blank tab to open but was getting an arbitrary page opening instead.

  • When I try to open something in a new tab, Firefox instead opens a file called as untitled.

    When I try to open something in a new tab, Firefox instead opens a file tab called "untitled." Anything that would automatically open new nab instead opens a file tab called "untitled." "Untitled appears to be empty.

    Hello David.
    It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
    If the problem is not disappears when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there.

  • Howcan I set the home page for new tabs?

    When I open a new tab, it opens up as a blank page. How do I setup Firefox so that the new tabs open in my home page?
    ''locked by a moderator due to age and that Firefox 13 has a new feature for a new tab''

    Thanks, but the problem I'm trying to solve is to get my home page to open automatically when I am already in Firefox and click on the new tab "+" sign to the right of my most recent tab. I have not found a solution to this in the link "How to set the home page" nor in the various help pages on new tabs.

  • Open OA Page in new Tab or new Window

    Hi

    javascript:void window.open('OA.jsp?page=/forsythe/oracle/apps/forx/b2bquote/webui/B2BQuoteLinesPG&quoteId={@QuoteId}&retainAM=Y&addBreadCrumb=Y')
    thank you

  • After opening a new tab, when I click on my home page (the house icon), it duplicates and opens a second window...it's never done this before?

    I just installed Firefox on a new laptop. Google is my home page. My opening tab is always Google. But, when I open a New Tab, it doesn't open in Google. So, I've always clicked on the house icon to take me straight to Google. Now when I do, TWO tabs open in Google. (it duplicates)

    I tried all of the above, I've reinstalled Firefox and I've checked if value set to 3 in browser.link.open_newwindow which it is, but the problem still happens.
    Regarding what you say re what is written in the article Tab preferences and settings, I understand what this means. However I am using FireFox in my work. I have a CRM where I constantly click on a button that automatically opens my order system on a new tab, or email templates in a new tab etc. The tab opens next to the tab I am currently on. However ever since I was prompted to Refresh Firefox earlier, it now opens these in a new window. Therefore the size of these pages has nothing to do with it, as this was not a problem before.
    This is irritating, as no I have to go from one window to another, and where I have multiple tabs open it is making my life difficult.
    Not happy!

  • How do I get new pages in new tabs to automatically go the same setting as my home page? Google is my home page, and I want the opening in new tabs to default to Google also.

    Whenever I open a new tab, I want the new page to open to the same setting as my Home Page (in my case, Google). Instead it takes me to Bing. Even my Home Page reverts to Bing after I've set it to Google.

    The default New Tab in Firefox is a blank page and there is no built-in option to change that.
    *CTRL+left-click the Home icon will open a new tab to your set home page.

  • How do I open my home page in new tab in firefox 13, like I had been doing for years?

    Since I just updated to firefox 13, I can no longer customize where a new tab opens, thanks to the new 'new tab page' feature. I've had my new tabs open to my home page for years now, it's how I'm accustomed to it, and it's frustrating that I now have spent so much time trying to work around this new 'convenience'. Just to clarify: I would like my new tabs to open to my home page. not a blank page, and not frequently visited tabs page.

    kinda silly that we have to do this just to keep things like they were before. but, yes it did work. thank you!

  • After login close the login window and open home page in new window

    Hi guys,
    I want to go to a new window for the "home page" without browser back button etc. after login validation.
    And also close the login window at the same time.
    Here is the code I used after the login validation.
    ExtendedRenderKitService erks =Service.getRenderKitService(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(),ExtendedRenderKitService.class);
    StringBuilder script = new StringBuilder();
    script.append(" params = 'width='+screen.availWidth-10;\n" +
    " params += ', height='+screen.availHeight-50;\n" +
    " params += ', top=0, left=0'\n" +
    " params += ', fullscreen=yes';\n" +
    " params += ', scrollbars=1';\n" +
    " params += ', resizable=1';\n" +
    " params += ', status=1';\n" +
    "window.close();\n" +
    " newwin=window.open('home.jspx','xxxxxxxxx', params);\n" +
    " if (window.focus) {newwin.focus()}");
    erks.addScript(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(), script.toString());
    This successfully opens a new window. I want to close the current login window at the same time.
    Please help me with this.
    Regards !

  • Cannot open web page in new tab in V 3.6.13

    I am using FF V. 3.6.13 with VISTA & Norton Security Suite. When I am in a web site and I click on a link, nothing happens. I have to right click on the link, chose "Open Link In New Tab" to get anything to happen. On some web sites I am unable to download a file. I have checked all my security settings, I have "open in a new tab" selected in FF, and I have turned off Norton Security Suite. I noticed this began right after I updated FF to the newest version. Anyone know how to resolve this problem? Your help will be appreciated.

    I am also having this problem, but in Windows XP and after trying and removing FF 4.07B.
    I my case FF doesn't even have a tab for the opening page. Tried as stated above by "sierradave".
    As above thanks in advance.
