When I right click on a link to open in new tab and move my cursor into the dialog box the box dissapears this is new in the last 24 hours.

I'm using Firefox 8.0 on Suse 11.4 today is 11/28/11 the past 24 hours I've been experiencing this: I always try to right click on links and open in new tab, lately when I do so and move the cursor into the dialog box the box disappears. Also if I online shop say for clothing, if I want to change size's when I click the button to do so nothing happens when I want to scroll down and pick a different size, (I can hi-light the size and click on it then when the window scrolls back up the default size is still there. This isn't consistent with all web sites.

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).

Ever since I downloaded the new Firefox, when I right-click on a link to open it in a different tab, the tab will open but will not load anything, no matter what link I try.

Ever since I downloaded the new Firefox, when I right-click on a link to open it in a different tab, the tab will open but will not load anything, no matter what link I try. The tab will show the website destination in the navigation bar, but will not automatically load it; I have to press the load button in the navigation bar instead of it instantly loading.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== The newest version, 3.6.6, of Firefox was downloaded

It's not specific sites. I can middle-click on the same link 50 times and it will open it in a new tab 45 times and 5 of those times, it will randomly open it in an entirely new window. I don't know what's causing this.
It happens so randomly that I don't know how to pin-point what it could be.

How do I change the order of the choices when you right-click on a link? "Open in a new window" used to be first, but in Firefox 4 "Open in a new tab" is first - which I hate using but click on by mistake. Can I change the order back to what it was?

Is there some preferences setting to be able to control the ordering of choices for the right-click menus?

You can use the Menu Editor extension to rearrange menu items - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/menu-editor

When I right click on a link "Open link in new tab" since a few days, it "jumps over" the tab to the right and opens in the tab next to that. How can I change this back to opening in the tab next to the page from which I opened as it used to be?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

When I right-click on a link, can I have "open in new window" first, like it used to be?

I prefer to open in new window when I right-click on a link. In this new version of firefox, open in tab is now on top. Can I have open in new window the first of the options?

Is there a way to change the order of the list that appears when i right click on a link?

In previous versions of firefox, when i right clicked on a link the list that appeareded was in order:
first Open Link in New Window
second Open Link in New Tab
In firefox 4 this is reversed. Is there a way to change it back?

You can do that with the Menu Editor extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/menu-editor/
This extension has not been updated by its author in a couple of years, but another developer has updated it for Firefox 4, you can get the updated version from http://netticat.ath.cx/MyAddons/MyAddons.htm#3rdpartyaddons

Itunes 10.6.1.7 problem: when I change the file "media type" from 'Music' to 'Podcast' the file disapears from ITUNES. I do this via (1) right click, (2) select 'Get Info', (3) select 'options' tab, and (4) change media type. What is the problem?

Hi Memalyn
Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

Using Bridge CC when I right click on picture to show open with menu it wont show Photoshop cc 2014. How do I fix that?

Using Bridge CC when I right click on picture to show open with menu it wont show Photoshop cc 2014. How do I fix that?

A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).

Problem with opening new tabs, when I right-click on a link and open in new tab it doesn't automatically load up like firefox 3.6 always did. Is there anyway to fix this?

for example there's a link a friend sent me in my e-mail and I right-click on it, and select "Open in a new tab" it pops open like normal, except it does not load the page, I have to click the box and press enter to even get it to load it. In previous versions I have never had that problem, current version of Mozilla Firefox I am using is version 4, previous was 3.6 hope this helps figure this out.

This only started happening this morning and I don't know why its acting this way. I've tried clicking 'Open Link In New Window' but it also opens in a new window. Any help?

Scine installing FF4, I have to right click on a link to open it. Standard clicking does not work all the time.

In most websites I have to right-click a link and select open in new tab or new window to get the link to open. I cannot left click on a link and get the link to open.

Try disabling the Ask Toolbar extension.

When I press CTRL+T it opens a new tab, but how do I get it to automatically switch over to this blank new tab?

In previous versions when pressing CTRL+T it would switch over to the new opened blank tab, in Firefox 5 this is not happening. It just opens a new tab to the right but doesn't actually go to this tab.. Any Suggestions?

Have you tried checking your Tab settings? Go to the "Tools" menu, then select "Options" and make sure the fifth check box down is selected. Here's a screen print so you know which one I am referring to.

When right-clicking on a link menu briefly appears then disappears. It still works if you can remember how far down to go to reach the "invisible" options. Anyone else having this problem? Is not happening with IE on same computer.

Recently installed Amazon Uploader and Downloader, and downloaded MP3s from Amazon. My personal computer is connected via Internet to a corporate network; (corporate) SOPHOS and Malwarebytes Pro for virus protection. Recent scans show no infections. I cleared history, cookies, etc. Running Windows 7 and current version of Firefox. Not having problem on IE 8, or with any other apps. Have not installed any other applications, but did install a JAVA update yesterday. Did not help the problem.

Ya actually i did ask here :P And no one offered to help :(
Well i shouldnt say that, all anyone said was to read the java api's.... When all i needed was to learn how to make the link to process input to a database by a servlet.
Anyway thats why i posted this here, in case anyone needs help on the same issue as i did.
And i dont make jsp's by hand.
I currently use for my developing
Dreamweaver mx 2004
Firewords mx 2004
Flash mx 2004
MySql db
JCreator for all the bean and java's
=D
That way there is minimal hand coding for html/jsp pages.

I am having trouble with my mac book air. I think I have a virus because every time i click on a link it opens up popup windows and other things. How do I reset the computer?

I'm not very good with computers, so I need to be told how to do this as simple as possible. Please help.

It's not a virus.
You may have inadvertently installed adware. Eradicating it is simple and you don't have to download or install anything to fix it. For an explanation or how this may have occurred, how to avoid it in the future, and for one possible solution read How to install adware.
