When open a new tab, I want the home page to come up, but it's something else. How do I change this? Thanks!

If I click the + to open a tab, it comes up to a browser window that I don't want. I have changed the "home page" to what I do want, that didn't seem to work, even when I restarted Firefox.
How can I change the screen that comes up when I select a new tab? Many thanks in advance for your assistance!

There is an extension to do that -> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

  • I reorganised my music organisation totally in iTunes on my Mac (Lion). iTunes does not sync this new artist organisation to the iPod and many albums are divided over several artists. How can I change this?

    I've called the Apple helpline. The only way to organise music on the iPod classic, is to use playlists. They themselves can be organised in playlist folders.

  • When i open a new tab i want the cursor to be at the beginning of the url (it was until this latest update, now the cursor is at the end of the url)

    I have just taken the latest update to 22.0 from the last version.
    In the past when i opened up a new tab the cursor would jump to the beginning of the URL and i could start typing. Now the cursor goes to the back of the URL and i have to double click the URL to type in a new one.
    Let me try to be as clear as i can. I have had firebox set for long time so when i open a new tab google.com comes up, and google is also my home page.
    I have not installed any options for a long time either. And nothing that has to do with tabs.
    What i remember is as i opened a new tab the URL of it would turn blue and i could start typing in a new URL. Now when i open a new tab i see google.com come up in blue, then the url turns to https://www.google.com/ and the blue goes away and the cursor is at the end of the URL. I now have to double click the URL to type.

    I switched to the "about blank" and then use my home icon to get to Google.com
    It is not quit as good as it was but usable.
    I think you should add two new check boxes in options under "tabs"
    1 - When opening any new tab, put the focus of the cursor on the URL.
    2 - When opening any new tab, put the focus of the cursor on the search box.
    This will take care of the majority of people.

  • How do I choose my homepage to appear when opening a new tab instead of the frequently visited websites which appear by default?

    When I manually open a new tab, a page appears which has previews of some of the sites I frequently visit. Instead of that I just want my homepage to appear.

    See this article about the New Tab page (about:newtab):
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites
    You can set the browser.newtab.url pref to the preferred home page.

  • When opening a new tab in Safari, the spinning wheels appears

    Please help, I have very basic skills on a computer, so please make this simple and easy!!
    When I open a new tab in Safari, it freezes and the spinning wheel appears. It stays on there for a long period of time and does not disappear. In order to get on I need to Force closure in Safari and restart the computer. Sometimes this will solve the problems and sometimes it needs to be restarted a few times.
    This is really annoying and stops me using my mac.

    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select

  • 993 How do I stop the Mozilla Tour page from coming up whenever I open my browser. Just want the home page

    Whenever I open my browser I get a tab with my home page and a Mozilla tour sync etc tab. I don't want the Mozilla page.

    Hi there,
    Understood! We don't like being bombarded with advertising any more than you do.
    If this is happening every time you open Firefox, it might be that Mozilla tab has also been set as your homepage.
    To check this:
    # Click the menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] button, press ''Options''
    # On the ''General'' page you'll a box labelled ''Home Page''
    # If the Mozilla web address is included in that home page box, delete it.
    Let us know if this fixes the issue. Cheers!

  • How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?

    How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
    An app changed it to some other search engine, before installing the app, I the tab that would open was the homepage I set.
    In my case it is Google, and I want my new tabs to open on Google like they did before the installation.
    thank you,
    Asaf Privman.

    You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
    You can look at one of these extensions:
    * NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    * New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

  • When opening a new tab, can I make it go to my homepage? Currently "AVG Safe Search" opens with a new tab, I want it gone!

    I downloaded the latest AVG update and with it they were more than happy to hit me with a stupid search bar at the top of Firefox, as well, when I open a new tab it goes to a page that looks like Google but is the AVG Safe Search page. I don't want it to happen! I would like if I could set it so Google home opens when I open a new tab but I haven't been able to find that option.

    Try this?
