Why can I not open a URL in a new window

In older versions of Firefox I could right click on a URL and then select "Open Link in new Window" and a new window would open to display the information. In newer versions, V5 or later, if I select "Open Link in New Tab" the new information will be displayed in a new tab, if I click on "Open Link in New Window" all I get is a new window with two blue bars across the top a "New Tab" and an empty window, no information is displayed.

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • Why can't i open a playlist in a new window with itunes 11?

    so i can apparently no longer open a playlist in a new window... how am i supposed to drag & drop songs in the order i want them to play?

    I get your point and I was really just trying to break your sense of despair. It is easy to become overwhelmed when something big and new comes along. We all have our own ways of doing things which we become used to and ...... well you know what I mean.
    Now, lets see if I can help you learn how to use this wonderful iTunes to get a grip on your music at a basic level.
    Start by going to the SONGS pane. This is the workplace, the most powerful place to be for finding stuff, organising and maintaining your music. The other panes are the pretty places to go when you want to play and enjoy your collection after the work is done.
    Make sure that you have the basic columns showing (View Menu, View Options). I suggest that essentially you should tick the following boxes :- Album, Artist, Checked, Genre, Time, Track Number, Year, Plays.
    In the column for Album, if you repeatedly click in the heading, the heading will cycle thru Album/Album-by-Artist/Album-by-Artist-by-Year. Play with that a little and see what it does. Also note that every column can be sorted by clicking in the column heading. The column that you are currently sorted by is shown by a little up or down arrow.
    Then turn on the Column Browser (View Menu) and check Genres, Artists Albums.
    Now you have the tools to find and organise. You have the view-by-genre you wanted. You can select all genres or you can select one or many. Same for Artist. Same for Album. Your selections are reflected in the lower songs pane. The horizontal division between the Column Browser and the Songs can be raised/lowered by grabbing the top of the heading line.
    Turn on the Status Bar (VIew Menu, Show Status Bar). The number of songs, the playtime and the disc space that your selection uses is shown here.
    NOW you should be able to do just about anything. Enjoy

  • Dragging an existing tab to the desktop (or below tab bar) does not open that URL in a new window, only a new window with an empty tab. FF4 RC2 (did it with RC1 as well).

    When I drag an existing open tab from the FF4 tab bar onto my desktop, a new window opens as expected but the tab within that window does not load the URL of the tab dragged from the previous window. The tab menu item "Move to New Window" does the same thing as well.
    I have disabled Tab Mix Plus add-on but it has made no difference. Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing?

    I use Tab Mix Plus and do not have that problem.

    You may need to try Firefox Safe Mode to see if an add-on is causing the problem; see: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode
    *<u>In Firefox 4, to enter Safe Mode, hold the Shift key while clicking on the Firefox 4 desktop icon.</u>
    *Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes '''<u>before</u>''' starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
    * If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling '''<u>one at a time</u>''' until the problem reappears. '''<u>You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change</u>''' via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

  • Why can I not open PDF-files in InDesign CS4?

    Hi,
    Well then, as I wrote in the headline... Why can I not open PDF-files?
    I get a notification that says that either the file is already open (which it's not) or it is missing a plug-in thingy for this kind of file.
    So, how do I know which plug-in thing I should chose from Adobe which will solve my problem?
    Could it be enough just to update the program? I tried with 6.0.6. upgrade but it wouldn't even open up. I'm not so good at this type of computerproblems (choosing upgrades, plug-in etc.). The program is not upgraded for a long time, unless it do it automatically, but I think we've chosen it not to....
    Please help!
    /S

  • Why can I not open some attached emailed pdf files?

    PLEASE HELP ME! I HAVE TO OPEN THESE FILES MY BUSINESS DEPENDS ON IT! why can I not open some attached pdf files and others are ok?

    PDF files are extremely reliable. You may have a software issue. I have the problem on 2 identical systems with the exact same specs. The problem occurs at the same exact interval. It may be a windows update. We have had to re-install software form the DVD in each instance. This fixes it for awhile and then it recoccurs. Adobe acts as if they have never heard of the problem...imagine that. I'm the only one with th problem.
    This is happens with CS6 volume lic product.
    If you dont own Adobe product it will be even more difficult to find and answer as the reader is used my so many people.
    We know we have the problem again when we double click opn a PDF and nothing happens. SOme have reported that reloading does not fix the problem.
    Wish I could help you. I am looking for answers to this issue right now and phone support is a 30 minute wait.
    Very frustrating.

    I think I figured it out.  I set the compatibility mode to Windows Server 2008 (which is the OS on the server we are using) and it opened just fine.  Whoop Whoop.  Thanks for your help.
