WHERE IS THE CLOSE TAB? I DON'T WANT TO EXIT!

Before, I had a "file" tab at the top left hand corner of my menu bar. Now it is gone and replaced with an orange "Firefox" tab. When I click on the tab I get a "new tab" but I do not get a "close tab". I don't know what the "new tab" is for but I don't really care. What I do care is closing a tab and now that you have eliminated the "File" option how can I close my tab and get to my previous page?????

You can middle click a Tab or right-click a Tab and choose Close Tab or press Ctrl+W to close the current Tab.
You can also use Alt + F to open the File menu to see a Close Tab item.
Some menu entries are hidden if you use the mouse and only appear if you use the keyboard to open the menu (Bug 626825).
You can see the difference if you use Alt+F to open the File menu or Alt+B to open the Bookmarks menu and compare that to what you see if you use the mouse to open the menu after you have made the menu bar visible by tapping Alt or by pressing F10.

  • Where has the close tab in File gone, it makes life really difficult?

    The close tab option has gone from the file menu. This makes searching the web really difficult. I wish I hadn't upgraded the new Mozilla.

  • I lost the close tab under File, how can i get it back

    if i don't have the close tab under File, i have to exit totally out of firefox which i don't want to do. How can I get the close button back?

    Hi,
    Please try pressing '''Alt''' + '''F''' on the keyboard. This brings out the full '''File''' menu. You can also try to close a tab by pressing the middle button of the mouse when the mouse pointer is over a tab, or clicking on the '''x''' on the right edge of a tab.

  • Where is the photo tab in itunes? it doesn't appear in the itunes sidebar

    where is the photo tab in itunes? it doesn't appear in the itunes sidebar, I am trying to remove photos from my ipad by restricting them from appearing after synch.

    cjmuth wrote:
    I was struggling with this too - but seem to have found the issue.  It appears the photo synch option in iTunes isn't available unless the photos are out of synch.
    This is incorrect.
    The Photos tab is always available when you have your iDevice connected.
    First open iPhoto, move the photos you want to get rid of to the trash, then close iPhoto.
    No one seems to want to delete the photos from iPhoto/computer.
    They just don’t want them to sync to the iPad.

  • Where is the summary tab? Please be very explicit

    Where is the summary tab? Please be very explicit

    Some of these smart arse answers ignore the fact that often there is no Device option in the sidebar or even a Summary button when a fault occurs.
    It isn't a question of not being able to follow simple instructions, it's a design flaw. Having spent many years in the Windows world I came to Apple to get away from this sort of hassle. In every other respect it was the right decision and I'm now a huge fan but the syncing of devices remains poor.
    I use an iPad and iMac, both with the latest software, but it's a recurring issue that iTunes suddenly stops recognising the iPad. Apple needs to address this because users don't want to have to become techies to go about day to day activities.
    The original question here wasn't at all unreasonable but some of the responses are unhelpfull and arrogant.

  • Why can't I get the Close Tab (x) button on to the Tab Title (as it is in the Help examples). Mine is almost invisible top right with the List all tabs button next to the Window controls (close minimise)

    The close tab button is not with the tab title tab.

    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.
    In Firefox 4 [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode Safe mode] disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
    * Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

  • How do I get the close tab x to be on the tab?

    Every time I want to close a tab I have to bring up the tab list. How do I get the close tab x to be on the actual tab?

    I don't think there is a built-in setting for that. The one used on desktop versions of Firefox has no effect in the Android version (browser.tabs.closeButtons).
    The easiest workaround I could find was the Quick Gestures extension. One of the many actions for which you can define a gesture is to close the current tab. By default, the gesture is Down Right Up, which didn't seem to work for me. I changed it to Left Right Left and that does work.
    If you haven't installed any add-on in Firefox for Android before:
    menu > Tools > Add-ons > Browse all Firefox add-ons
    Here you can search for gestures
    After installing, return to the tab with Add-ons, tap Quick Gestures and then tap Enable and under Preferences, Open. Then you can see and customize individual gestures.

  • I upgraded yesterday so why is the "close tab" no longer on the File menu? How do I close one tab without exiting Firefox?

    the "close tab" option is not on the File drop-down menu today. It was before I upgraded yesterday to the new version of firefox. So how do I close one tab?

    Ctrl W did the trick and I think I should be able to remember that. Right click menu when the document or site is open on the screen doesn't work, but it does from the taskbar menu above. Either way, I know what to do now. Thank you.

  • Recently the close tab function in safari has disappeared.

    Recently the close tab function in safari has disappeared and now I have to close tabs by right clicking, needless to say it's driving me mad. Is there a way I can sort this out?

    My Safari tabs were missing the "x" close button as well.
    What ended up working for me was ->Force Quit->Safari.
    I noticed quitting Safari from the Dock does not completely close it out, and from the Safari->Quit Safari menu option is grayed out. Force quit seemed to be the only way to end it.

  • Where is the devices tab?

    Where is the devices tab as stated in Set Up HP Connected?

    Masher,
    Welcome to the HP Forum.
    After you have set up HP Connected, and signed into that account, the Devices is the last Tab on the right.
    Example:
    Click the Kudos Thumbs-Up!
    It is a nice way to say “Thank You" for the help.
    Although I strive to reflect HP's best practices, I do not work for HP. 
    Kind Regards,

  • Where is the 'other' tab in Developer Portal?

    Where is the 'other' tab in Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles?
    It was there before Apple revamped the portal and yes i'm enrolled with the enterprise account.
    I need it to generate MDM vendor certificate. I've emailed Apple and no response for the past 3 days. So frustrating.
    Anybody having this problem?

    I check this in Portal308, deleting user from login server is not equal to delete from portal. In PORTAL30.WWSEC_PERSON$ table still remain personal details of deleted user.
    Is it bug or right functionality?
    For me it is some kind of bug. When you re-create user in sso server it tooks over all pers. data from old user.
