When "Use Google Instant", "Open search results in a new browser window." does not function.

In the "Google Search Setting", if select "Do not use Google Instant", then the selected search result of Google Search will be displayed in a new window, but if "Use Google Instant", the selected result will replace Google Search window. This problem does not exist when using Chrome Browser.

That does what it says - even if Google tells the browser to open the page in a new window, you have told Firefox to ignore that and open it in a new tab. Uncheck the box and you should get the result you want.

  • I have a problem when using Google Maps, at some point my computer blanks the window and says there's a problem with display drivers, and it has recovered,but it doesn't. Problem doesn't happen with Int Explorrer, so I do not believe it is the computer

    When using google maps through Firefox, after asking for a place which is not the general North America section which routinely comes up, the firefox screen goes white, with a narrow banner at the top. A message appears in the lower right corner which says something about display drivers having had a problem, but now have recovered. However the display doesn't recover and the banner message is that Firefox is not responding. When I go to restart Firefox if I go to the restore point, the page is still frozen out.
    I do not believe it is a problem with my computer because it doesn't happen if I use I.E. to go to google maps, then G-maps works normally.
    This phenomenon did not happen before the latest upgrade to either Google or Firefox. I have used Fiefox for a number of years and also Google Maps on previous computers and on this one, and not had this before.
    This is a relatively young computer (Asus EeSlate 121) less than a year old. I have used Firefox since I bought it and until recently had no problem with Google Maps.

    I solved it myself, after the "note" which came back from FF/Mozilla just as I finished my message, commenting on what it was that my system had , I wnnt back to check my plug-ins etc. I downloaded the latest Java, BOTH 32bit AND 64 bit versions and latest Firefox.
    Now all is working.
    Thanks,

    Tunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
    Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
    Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
    You can re-download your available previous purchases.

  • When I click to open Mozilla icon on my desktop, the page does not open & I cannot access it unless I type it in an Internet Explorer page?

    When I click to open Mozilla icon on my desktop, the page does not open & I cannot access it unless I type it in an Internet Explorer page? When clicking on the Icon sometimes it will flash to the right of my desktop screen but does not open for access.

    Hi Dave, thanks for your answer.
    I have tried a several times to repairing permissions, restarting the mac, relaunched Finder, but no difference.
    I copied the download folder to the dock...there I can open the files, but not deleting them or copying them.
    When I open finder, then I click on the folder Download, after a while of thinking, it throws me out and back to the desktop.
    already tried to sign in with the guest user account, then I am able to open the download folder.(but not seeing my files)
    When I am trying to change the download folder in Safari, it also throws me out and gives me a error report ,for sending to Apple.
    I think it's a settings fault or i think my download folder is locked. Almost desperat, already called support center,
    They couldn't help, for free, due the 90 days free online help i have reached. If I want to solve this problem, they could try it , but it cost me almost 50 euros.
    hope there is someone, who's knowing this problem.
    By the way, I think it also could be that I dragged some downloaded music to the desktop, and dragged some folder that has the settings. Now its changed???
    Or I was downloading something, and deleted the files in the download folder while it was unpacking and reparing the files.
    It's not easy for a beginner Mac user (3 months) to already solve this problems.
    Can you follow me? And seems this problem familiar to you?
    Thanks in advance

  • Open another website in a new browser window

    I can't seem to create links to external websites that open
    as intended in a new browser window while leaving the main browser
    window unchanged. Except in Safari on a Mac. See sample code.
    In Safari on a Mac this opens the new window and behaves as I
    want. In Safari on a PC it opens a new window, but in back. In
    Firefox on Mac I get an error message in which, when the "OK"
    button is cliked on, a new window opens in back of the main window.
    Same thing on a PC. Internet Explorer on a PC opens a new window
    but displays an error message forcing you to clik the back button
    to return to the main page.
    If I specify the main page url in the link field, then the
    main page gets reset to the top, which I don't want.
    How can I get FireFox and IE to accomplish this gracefully?
    To observe behavior go to
    http://www.digifon.com/framesetal_id.htm

    Don't use Frames. However, the issue of opening a new window
    is still
    hotly debated. My own approach is to mark the link with an
    icon and
    then to open a new window (or tab if the user prefers). If
    done
    properly with javascript, this will not spawn a myriad of
    windows and
    Standards-compliant. (And further, if javascript is off, the
    new page
    will simply open in the current window.)
    Based on this philosophy, I offer a DW Extension that makes
    adding this
    behavior dead simple. Here is an example of a page that uses
    it to good
    advantage. Despite all the external links and pdf links on
    the page,
    the Extension only needed to be added once to the page,
    rather than
    adding it to each and every link. Links added to the page
    AFTER the
    Extension is applied are ALSO acted on, a great time saver in
    my
    opinion, and easy on the user:

  • Dreamweaver - Chrome open a video in a new browser window not working

    Hi guys, i'm pretty novice to dreamweaver and i've putting a site together recently...
    One thing i am trying to do is open a video in a new browser window when the button is clicked upon.
    I have done what i thought i needed to do this, and in safari and other browsers this works fine. In Google Chrome however this doesn't seem to want to work and rather then opening and playing the video it just automatically starts to download it.
    I'm sure it is a simple fix and i apologise for the thread all about it but any help would be appreciated.

  • Opening a URL in a new browser window

    Hello Experts,
    I am trying to open a dynamic url in a new browser window from a Portal application (travel and expenses). Basically, when a user clicks on the submit button, Badi IF_EX_TRIP_WEB_CHECK~USER_CHECK_CHANGES is called. In the BaDI, we have added code to concatenate a parameter to a url and then open a new browser window with that url. This works perfectly in r/3 using a tcode (pr_web_1200) but when I use the portal application under ESS, the window does not open and no error message is issued. We are using METHOD cl_gui_html_viewer->detach_url_in_browser. Any idea why this is not working through ESS in Portal? Is there some other method that we need to use? Any help is appreciated.
    Regards,
    Sal

    Re: Open Portal Transaction iView in new window *without* Browser window
    for iView (page) you probably set the property 'Launch in New Window' to value Display in Separate Window. To tune up the other otions you have the possibility to set the property Window Features, value should contain toolbar=no. These features will be used when Javascript opens up your window - you can apply any option coomonly documented. IMHO for your demands the best option is fullscreen=yes,toolbar=no - you get really the maximum possible size.

  • Open pdf's, documents in new browser window SharePoint 2010

    Hi all,
    when a user clicks on pdf's, documents, html pages etc in a document library I need them to open in a new browser window. I've found lots of articles on how to do it in 2007 but none work in 2010. I know its not an out of the box function but people
    have done it with Java script or adding code to the document library allitems.aspx web part, I just can't replicate those steps in 2010.
    I'm not a developer or anything but can put code in the right place using SharePoint designer 2010.
    Pulling my hair out at the mo,
    please help
    thanks in advance

    Create a Document Library called ScriptLibrary.
    Download the Jquery library here: http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-1.4.4.min.js
    Create a new file called: OpenPDF.js
    Paste the following Code in the file:
    $("A[href$=.pdf]").click(function() {
          window.open(this.href);
    Upload both files to your newly created ScriptLibrary.
    The ScriptLibrary should have 2 files: jquery-1.4.4.min.js and OpenPDF.js
    Navigate to the List Page that has the PDF's that you need opened in a new window.
    Click Site Actions: Edit Page,
    Insert > Content Editor WebPart
    Click to Edit the HTML Source of the HTML WebPart, then paste in the following to reference the two files you uploaded to your Script Library:
    <script type="text/javascript" src="/ScriptLibrary/jquery-1.4.4.min.js" ></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="/ScriptLibrary/OpenPDF.js" ></script>
    *The src needs to point to the files you uploaded
    Save the page then click on a PDF, it should open in a new window.
    You can then export that ContentEditorWebPart to your webpart gallery, and just insert the webpart on any page that needs the same functionality.

  • Applet-to-Servlet results in a new browser window

    Hi Everyone,
    I am trying to show a page generated by some servlet in a new browser window when the button is clicked on the applet. I can accomplish that by using AppletContext as in:
    myApplet.getAppletContext().showDocument(servletUrl, "_blank");
    The only problem with this is that I don't have any control over how the new browser window is displayed. Using JavaScript I can set size, hide toolbar and address bar, etc. But how can I hide address bar on a new browser window generated in this scenario?
    I tried to call intermediate servlet from my applet which in turn generates a new window by writing out JavaScript code. This way I lose my previous page with the applet even though a new window is displayed the way I wanted but I want this new browser window to act as a pop-up box and my applet page stay on screen. Also, is there a way to send a POST request from an applet by using AppletContext.showDocument() method?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance,
    Y.M.

    Hi,
    You can specify an intermediary html which inturn will make the call to servlet.
    myApplet.getAppletContext().showDocument(html,
    "_blank");
    in the HTML onload make a call to servletURL using
    self.open(servletURL, "_self", options);
    in the options you can specify size, toolbar, etc.
    Hope this helps.

  • Open sso enabled app in new browser window

    I have a java app deployed to OAS and secured with Single Sign on. I would like my app to open a report and display it in a new browser window. When the new window opens I am getting an error stating that user is not authorized to access the report. This is due to the session information (successful login) being stored with the cookie in the original browser window (where the session started and where the user originally logged in). Is there a way to pass that cookie information to the 2nd browser window...or some way to re-authenticate without having the user log on again...possibly some mod_osso set-up...or some additional code? TIA.

  • I've been using FCP 7 on my iMac for quite some time with great success.  Lately I created a new project and the browser window does not format properly (it's O.K. for previously created projects). The effects window is also not displaying properly.

    Help! My browser window is suddenly not formatting properly. (losing browser formatting, glitch, bug)  I'm using FCP 7 on an iMac with OS X 10.8.5 and have been successfully doing so for a couple of years.  I fear my Final Cut Pro is corrupt and I have to re-install. Anyone ever see this problem? Old projects display and behave fine in the browser, but any new project I create, totally loses the formatting in the browser and the browser also does not display the "effects" window properly anymore. (see below)

    YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER!  I reinstalled the program and everything. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! MY HERO!!!
