When I try to open a new tab using the "+" on the toolbar, nothing happens. Even trying to use the cntl t to open a new tab does not work. To open a new tab, I must right click on a hyperlink. how can I correct this? Using Firefox 3.6.18
The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons -
Till recently there was no issue opening a new tab after doing a search on google for an issue. For the last ten days or so I am having this experience of inconsistency. Has anyone noticed it. On the other hand if I visit any other web pages it works smooth to open a new tab.
May be it is working fine for you. But then i am experiencing the issue again and again. someone else was also facing the same issue on another forum.

This just started happening today. I am concerned as my wife went to a site that had been recommended to her via a phone solicitation last night. I am not sure if this is a coincidence or not.
When I try to open a new blank tab I get redirected to a website that WOT describes as untrustworthy.Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

Do you have Firefox 3.6 and the Ask Toolbar?
If you do, uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.

What is wrong when you try to open a new tab, but the new tab does not appear?
I have been trying to open up multiple websites by using the "open a new tab" button. When I do this, no new tab appears. Please help.
Please uninstall or disable the Ask Toolbar extension to solve your problem.

i try to open another tab by using control+t, or by going to fill and pressing new tab, or by clicking the plus sign to add another tab, but none of these work and a new tab won't open.
Uninstall the '''''Ask Toolbar'''''. It can cause that problem.

Using the latest Firefox version of 9.0.1
I'm having difficulty visualizing what is wrong but try some basic steps first:
Launch Safari while holding a Shift key - this will start Safari with just your Home page
If you can see Reset Safari from the Safari menu, try that.
In addition to downloading and installing Safari again, try reapplying just the Snow Leopard Combo Update: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 There is no need to uninstall Safari first.
Lastly try deleting Safari's Preferences file: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist -
I do not recall downloading Bing or ever setting Bing up as a default search engine. My Home Page was also changed to MSN, but I fixed that.
There have been several threads about this add-on during the past few months...
It is important to check the Windows Control Panel > Programs and Features to remove the source(s). These may include the following:
* Incredibar
* MyStart
* Web Assistant
After that, restart Firefox and start clearing out its settings as described in the following threads. Many users find it simpler to "Reset" than to take multiple steps to clean-up Firefox. That's up to you.

I do not know how to restore the awesome bar function. All I get now is the AVG Search window when I try to open a new tab.
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.

Everytime I open a new tab, Firefox automatically refreshes the currently open ones.
When I attempt to open a new tab, Firefox automatically refreshes the already opened and loaded websites in other tabs.
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") -
When I try to open a new window in Firefox, I get an error message
When I try to open a new window in Firefox, I get the following error message:
"Not Found
The requested URL /en-US/firefox was not found on this server."
...but other websites, such as Google or CNN.com, work just fine.
I'm running Firefox 3.6.28 on my MacBook Pro, with OS 10.4.11. I can't update to the latest version of Firefox unless I update my OS, which would be costly and also involve increasing my RAM.
But the Firefox homepage worked fine until this morning. Is this likely to be a temporary glitch? If not, how can I fix it?
Thanks,
EmmyAt least at the moment, the default Firefox homepage is back! So maybe this was a momentary glitch. But see below.
BTW, here's the URL for the page:
http://start.mozilla.org/en-US/?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official
'''But, '''the "Mozilla Firefox Start Page" currently lacks a menu bar at the top with various Google options such as "Gmail," "more," etc. I found these very useful.
I'm wondering -- did Google tell Mozilla to stop including those links on its start page? Maybe Google wants us all to switch to having Google as our default homepage. Or is the lack of a menu bar just another temporary glitch?
