When I select a link on a site and this opens a new instance of Firefox, the link page is blank; but OK when the link is displayed in a new tab on same instance of Firefox.

''Duplicate post, continue here - [/questions/775444]''
This happens on many sites eg just went to Virgin Media
http://www.broadband-finder.co.uk/broadband-directory/virgin-media/?li=3
and tried to click on one of the 3 More Info boxes (Just Broadband, Broadband and Phone,... etc). Each time I click the More Info box, a new instance of Firefox is opened with a blank page showing and 'Untitled' in the tab heading.
Is there a setting somewhere where I can stop these links opening a new instance - or at least display the information if they do?

* "Clear the Cache": Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
* "Remove the Cookies" from sites that cause problems: Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
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).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
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")

      You need to keep the keys pressed for several seconds. Close down Elements. Hold down the CtrlShiftAlt keys and simultaneously click on the Edit button on the welcome screen. Release the three keys and look behind the welcome screen by closing it. Or hold down the keys whilst clicking on the desktop icon for the Editor or PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe in the Programs folder. Keep holding down all three keys until you get the settings option. You should see a pop up box with the words: Delete Adobe Photoshop Elements Settings File?Click on YesThen wait whilst Elements rebuilds the preferences.  You should see something like this (example PSE9)  http://forums.adobe.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-4880527-258346/320-111/Setting s-pop-upPSE9.png

  • I just installed the new firefox for Mac OSX 10.6.8 and when I select an image on a site (right click and copy) and paste in Photoshop 5.5, the image lightens. It does not do this in Safari.

    Question
    I just installed the new firefox for Mac OSX 10.6.8 and when I select an image on a site (right click and copy) and paste in Photoshop 5.5, the image lightens. It does not do this in Safari.

    Firefox, Safari, and PhotoShop each handle embedded color profiles differently. For an add-on that makes it easier to experiment with Firefox's color management options, you might be interested in: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/color-management/ Color Management :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.

  • It is very annoying when I am at a favourite web site and Firefox will not automatically redirect to another page. It is so continuous and I have to "Allow" through the whole time I am at my favourite web sites

    # Question
    It is very annoying when I am at a favourite web site and Firefox will not automatically redirect to another page. It is so continuous and I have to "Allow" through the whole time I am at my favourite web sites.
    Here is one of those sites:
    http://conservatives4palin.com/

    You can make it automatically redirect by doing this:
    1. Go to: Tools > Options > Advanced > General
    2. Untick the 'Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page' option
    3. Click 'OK'

  • Sites w/ .pdf or .ashx documents as the full page or as an insert in the page don't load the .pdf or .ashx documents - I get an Problem Report window that says "Firefox Plugin Process quit unexpectedly"

    Sites w/ .pdf or .ashx documents as the full page or as an insert in the page don't load the .pdf or .ashx documents - I get an Problem Report window that says "Firefox Plugin Process quit unexpectedly" and sends the error to Apple so I have had to revert to Firefox 3 getting rid of 4. Anybody have any thoughts?? (I'm runnng OSX 10.6.7)

    OK, I think I have this solved. After reading my post over, I decided to rethink the problem. First thing I did was download Chrome and I tried using that and IE again and surprise! I was having the same problem on those browsers as well. So now we know it wasn't Firefox. I then figured maybe a slow computer meant a virus, so I ran scans. I've had both Avast and IOBit for months now and I've never had a problem with either of them before. Then I downloaded Malwarebytes and ran a third scan. They all picked some stuff up, but nothing serious. Then I tried disabling all the antivirus stuff and that didn't solve anything. But then I decided to keep Malwarebytes and I uninstalled IOBit Security and whammo - problem solved.
    I have no idea why out of the blue IOBit would be causing a problem like this so if someone knows, please let me in on the secret. Additionally, IE was working fairly well last night but not this morning. I also don't know why removing IOBit would take care of the nsAppShell issue, because supposedly, that's related to Firefox plug ins. And one more thing...when Comcast hooked my neighbor up to cable, they did it by putting a splitter on my line. They were messing about with the lines yesterday before I got on my computer last night trying to decide how to rerun them and today they did that, taking the splitter off my line and giving my neighbor his own line. That was finished about 30 minutes before I uninstalled IOBit. So....who knows?
    But I ain't about to look a gift horse in the mouth. I have my Firefox back and I am so sorry for bad mouthing you last night - I love you, Firefox!

  • If I am browsing on site such as Ebay or any shopping site, and click on an item, when I return to the search page I am once again at the top of the page and have to search down for where I was in the list of items.

    If I am browsing on site such as Ebay or any shopping site and click on an item, when I return to the search page I am once again at the top of the page and have to search down for where I was in the list of items. This is not only on Ebay it is everywhere I search. Firefox goes back to the top of the page . It is annoying to have to figure out exactly where I was if I left the page and then returned. This is a hinderance when using Firefox. I have considered uninstalling it because of the inconvenience of 're-searching' after already doing a search. Firefox used to take me right back to where I was if I left a page, but that feature is not working now. I am not sure how to change this in the settings.

    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

  • When I start mozilla or open any link in a new window I get the desired page to load but an additional new tab page opens up along with it, fix?

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
    '''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
    *Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    '''For Firefox versions previous to 29.0:'''
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]] 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.
    '''For Firefox 29.0 and above:'''
    #Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Troubleshooting Information''.
    Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
    #At the top right corner of the page, you should see a button that says "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]]. Click on it.
    #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.

  • When at the "results" page of a search, clicking on "blue" link does not display webpage. Copying "green" urldoes.

    When at the "results" page of a search, clicking on "blue" link does not display webpage although url is shown in address bar. Copying "green" url, shown at bottom of a result, into address bar and hitting "enter" goes to the address and displays the page. Have tried different selections at tools/options with no change. Is there some other setting that needs to be changed?

    Sorry, this is bad reply. I wanted to write this reply to another question.

    When I select a photo on my iPhone and send it via email, the receipient receives it sideways. Any way to fix that?

    When you took this photograph your phone was being held in that way. Sideways, try taking the photo straight on. Or it is the Picture file itself, open up the application you edit photos with and rotate it to be proper orientation. I recently had the same problem but you either have to retake or edit it at this point.

    HAVING A PROBLEM WHEN I PRINT A WEB PAGE WHICH IS MORE THAT ONE PAGE LONG. ONLY THE FIRST PAGE PRINTS TO SCALE...THE REMAINING PAGES PRINT OFF THE PAGE????HELP-IT IS DEFINITELY A PROBLEM WITH FIREFOX BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAPPEN WITH SAFARI??

    Thank you for the response. I tried to fix the problem with some of the suggestions on that page, but none seem to work. I believe that is the only website that I'm having that problem on. I got to fooling with it a bit more and when I highlight the whole page and select to print the selected area, it actually prints the whole page then, but it won't do it as a default. I guess I can just do it like that from now on, but I thought there would be something in the settings that I could have changed. Thanks again for the help.

  • My Gallery shows a wallpaper of my pictures when i select "my gallery" I do not want this type of wallpaper or background

    From your homescreen, select settings, wallpaper and select any picture you want from the downloaded wallpapers or a picture from your device.

  • When I select a title or lower thirds and try to enter text by double clicking on it I cannot enter any text at all. Also the text area box does not show up at all where you can enter text also.

    When I select a title or lower thirds and try to enter text by double clicking on it I cannot enter any text at all. Also the text area box does not show up at all where you can enter text also.

    It's a bit hit and miss, Walter. Sometimes the box to enter text shows up straight away in the inspector under "text". Other times, although you click "text" in the inspector, there's nowhere to actually write anything.... then what you have to do is move the trackbar over the Title Box until you see the text boxes in the main Viewer. In the Viewer, double click a text box.... you can enter text there, but it's a bit flaky, but when you've clicked in it, you'll find that under "Text" in the inspector, the box for inputting text has magically appeared!
    I'm not sure if anyone else has this trouble, but it is a bit of a pain!
