You need to figure out what you have installed which changed that action to Yahoo from a blank tab, which is the default action in Firefox; and then get rid of that add-on. Then you can can install an add-on which allows you to select what you want in the new tab.

  • In the new tab yahoo search page is opening everytime. How can I get rid of it and just get a blank page instead?

    whenever i am opening a new tab - yahoo search page is opening up. How can I get rid of this. I want a blank page to be open up instead of yahoo search page in new tab.

    This might be a feature of the Yahoo toolbar. Can you live without it? To disable or remove the toolbar, use
    Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions category
    After restarting Firefox, do new tabs become blank again?

  • When I start a new tab by myself it went to a blank page instend of home page

    When I use Firefox 3.7 , when I start a new tab by myself it can automate go to my home page....
    But now after I update to Firefox 4, it cannot do that about more... I have look at the options already...
    wish you guys can help me... thanks

    Make sure your extensions are up-to-date if you are expecting opening a new tab ("Ctrl+T") to show your home page. Firefox has no option to do that. (bug [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=269664 269664]).
    These are two extensions that can do that -- New Tab Homepage (7KB), or NewTabURL (47KB).

  • I have Mac OSX maxmini; Safari states "can't open server since starting with 'open-help-anchor'.  How do I get into the web site this is blocking?

    I have Mac Mini OSX 10.6.2; Safari states "can't open server since url starting with 'open-help-anchor'.  I didn't type this but possibly I was hijacked but it only occurs on the specific banking site I'm trying to get into.  How do I get into the web site I've always been able to get but now this is blocking it?   Is this related to cookies?

    Hi Spookola,
    I don't know how that could have happened. Go through the folders for the rolls and separate the 2005 rolls from the 2006 rolls, then import the 2006 rolls.

  • Whenever I open a new tab, Yahoo search is there instead of fast dial sites.

    I have fast dial installed. I want it to show up every time I open a new tab. But instead of fast dial, I get a yahoo search. I uninstalled Yahoo every where I found it but it's still there. I just want fast dial to show up. It works if I click the icon at the top, but it needs to show up in new tabs.

    A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
    If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    You can middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
    You can use an extension to set which page to open in a new tab:
    *NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    *My Homepage: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/my-homepage/

  • How do I stop a new window opening up when I start a new tab?

    When I open up a new tab, it also opens up a new window with all of my current tabs present. So I have 2-3 windows open, all with the same tabs. Closing a tab you're on will also close the respective window and vice-versa.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • Vertical Toolbar thingy with a search field and my bookmark folders underneath. How do I get rid of it?

    This might sound ridiculous but here it goes: I accidentally hit a couple keys on my netbook keyboard. This made a toolbar pop up on the left side of the window. It's vertical and has a search field at the top, then listed underneath are my bookmark folders in expandable/collapsible tree format. I can't find any reference to it in any of the options. I just want it to go away. It's kind of bothering me a lot more than it should. Please help me get rid of this.

  • I got a new ipod and some of the music that i sync was my daughters and i don't want it how do delete it from my ipod

    I need to delete music off my ipod how can I do that with out taking all the music off the ipod?

    Under the Music tab for your iPod Sync preferences with iTunes, choose selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres instead of entire library.
    Select the iTunes playlists, and/or artists, albums, genres you want transferred to your iPod followed by a sync. This will remove the music from your iPod that you don't want on the iPod.

  • I just got a new iPod with songs on it. On my old itunes it says songs,videos, and etc. i don't want. How do i get them off?

    I want to get all the data off soo i can put new data on. So i can like start over. All i want to do is delete all the stuff but i cant figure out how to do that! Please help!!!

    Well if you can send emails, when you connect computer to modem directly, then it might be ports forwarding issue. Update firmware of router to latest version and assign a static ip on computer like 192.168.1.11, and obtain ports used by outgoing mail server, and forward those ports to static IP assigned, on router's setup.

    I keep getting google news in my email. How do I stop getting it in my mail?

    It's likely that you subscribed to it at some point - most email of that flavor has a link for unsubscribing. Found this on a quick Google search - http://support.google.com/reader/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=73062.

  • I just discovered that Baudi has been added to my safari search options and I don't want it. How do I remove it?

    I want to remove BAIDU from my Safari browser search engine choices. I read to go to "applications" select "toolbars" and select "uninstall Baidu" . The problem is  "toolbars" is not on my list of "applications". How do I remove Baidu?  I don't know how it got there. My niece sent me an email partially in Chinese and perhaps it was installed when I opened it, Thanks for any help.

    There is amazingly little on the web about this unwanted software regarding Safari. Also just noticed I repeated the same nonsense removal instructions you found. Sorry for being a parrot.
    Couple of things to try.
    1) Close Safari. Open the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ folder. Press Command+2 to change it to List view, then click Date Modified to sort them by time/date. Newest date should be at the top. If there's anything there with a date of just the past of couple of days, move it to the desktop. Launch Safari. Is it gone?
    2) There are actually three folders named Internet Plug-Ins. Check the ones in the System folder, and in your user account Library folder. Again, looking for anything added just recently.
    I saw the same page Linc posted to, but it didn't dawn on me at the time what the relation may be. Open the System Preferences and click on the Language & Region icon. If you see any Asian languages in the list as shown below. Highlight it and press the minus button to remove it.
