    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

    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.

  • There is a problem when i click the "+" tab to "open a new tab" nothing happens. It use to open new tabs and now it does nothing.

    There is a problem when i click the "+" tab to "open a new tab" nothing happens. It use to open new tabs and now it does nothing. Even when i go to "File" and "New Tab" it still does nothing. The only time i can get a new tab to open is if i go to "Help" and click "Firefox Help" then a new tab with firefox help opens.

  • Google search page on the iPad, issues when you try to open a new tab. Anyone noticed this? It is a recent development. Does not happen on any other website.

    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.

  • When I try to open a new tab by using ctrl+t or by any other method, a new tab won't open. How do I fix this???

    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.

  • When I try to open links from Incredimail, nothing happens.

    I just got a new computer with Windows 7. I transferred my Incredimail 2 account over installed Firefox 14.0.1. When I try to click on links in my email, nothing happens. Could there be a compatibility issue with with the newest version of Firefox and Windows 7, or is it an issue with Incredimail?

    The first thing I generally recommend is the "double-switch." Open Internet Options (either from IE's Tools menu or from the Control Panel) to the Applications tab and make IE the default browser. You can confirm that it worked by clicking a link in Incredimail or by checking the Associations list in the control panel.
    ''(Associations list: You can paste this path into a Windows Explorer window to jump to the control panel. Because it does a registry scan, it takes some time to load.''
    ''Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default Programs\Set Associations''
    ''Scroll all the way to the bottom to the Protocols section to see which program is set to handle http and https links are handled.)''
    The second step in the double-switch is to have Firefox make itself the default browser again.
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced > General > Check Now button
    Again, you can test by clicking a link in Incredimail. Any change in behavior?

    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

  • How do I restore the function of the awesome bar? I no longer get the awesome bar function when I want to open a new tab.

    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.

  • When I try to open a blank tab I automatically get sent to an untrustworty site. Can anyone help?

    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.
