Why can't I use Right-Click in Bookmarks (to delete) or on Tabs (to bookmark) anymore?

Much of the right-click mouse support seems to have been removed from Firefox - is there a reason for this?
Examples are in the Subject line.

You can change the order of the boxes on the about:newtab page and drag an item to a different tile to pin it to that position or you can remove a website by clicking the close X to block that URL.
You can drag a bookmark or history item and drop them in a tile on the about:newtab page to pin them and have your own favorites sites showing.
Changes made manually on the about:newtab page are stored in prefs that you can find on the about:config page.
*browser.newtabpage.pinned stores websites that you have pinned to a tile.
*browser.newtabpage.blocked stores websites that you have removed by clicking the X button in a tile.
So you can reset those prefs via the right-click context menu to reset changes made to the about:newtab page.

  • Why can't I just right click on the thumbnails and set the websites I want?

    I love the thumbnail idea, but why can't I just right click on the thumbnails and set the websites I want?
    Why do i have to wait for a recent one to come up?
    Of the 9 available, I would like to set 6 to website i can input by right clicking it and leave the rest for the recently visited.
    I ho[e you include that feature in your next update.
    Thank you
    P.S. 2 more issues
    1. Firefox is the only browser that always give me trouble attaching files in gmail. I still use firefox for all browsing but for mail attachments, I use others. And yes, I have done the "Clear cookies, reset, reinstall, clear cache, etc etc etc... none worked for more than a few days. no such problem with other browsers.
    2. Your new updated search bar (Top right hand corner) is nice but can be very irritating for the following reason:
    I like to highlight - copy (a word or phrase) - and paste it in the search bar. was fine with the older version, but now as soon as I right click to past, the menu pops up for me to select a search engine. Very irritating since I have yet to paste the copied word or phrase. I rather paste it and then have the option to click on the drop down menu. If you see this as not something masses would want, please place an option in setting for us to stop the suggestion for search engines coming up automatically when we try to right click in the side search bar to paste.

  • Why does the Right-click - "t" delete a bookmark on the bookmark toolbar, when Right-click - "t" opens a new tab elsewhere. The bookmark toolbar use Right-click - "w" to open in a new tab. Please change this to "t" to...

    Why does the Right-click -> "t" delete a bookmark on the bookmark toolbar, when Right-click -> "t" opens a new tab elsewhere in Firefox. The bookmark toolbar use Right-click -> "w" to open in a new tab. Please change this to "t" to... I keep deleting all my bookmark because you don't make the commands consistent!

    If you have accidentally removed bookmarks then use "Organize > Undo" in the bookmarks manager (Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks) to get them back.<br />
    The Organize button is the first of the three buttons on the toolbar in the Library (Bookmarks Manager).<br />
    That only works if you haven't closed Firefox.

  • Why can't I use Alt+Enter to open addresses in a new tab?

    Why can I no longer use Alt+Enter in 6.0 on Windows Vista.
    I have tried Customizable Shortcuts, the shortcut isn't even listed.

    The To More Specific node is dealing with compile-type inference. In this case, you are loading a default instance from disk and then attempting to cast to the base Message class. However the type you are casting to is going to a dynamic output - this gives the compiler no assurances that the input class at run-time on the dynamic input will be the same as the output type; only that it will be a type at the top of the hierarchy. Dyanmic dispatch inputs/outputs must be the same type to guarantee some form of type safety.
    You need the Preserve node there so that you can guarantee the class at both dynamic dispatch terminals will be the same type.
    However this is probably not the best mechanism for a factory method. Factory methods should ideally be static; their job is to provide an instance of the right type (e.g loaded by path as per your example) and you don't need an instance of a class to do that. The only reason I can think of to over-ride said functionailty in a dynamic dispatch method is to provide some form of custom construction for the creation of the type. If all you are creating is an instance with nothing but the default private data then there is no reason to over-ride in the child classes.
    EDIT: Another post collision. nathand is on the money with this one.

  • Why can't i access or click on the menu options at the top of ANY web page? Also, Can't close a moddle window using the x in the upper right,?

    Why can't i access or click on the menu options at the top of ANY web page? Also, Can't close a moddle window using the x in the upper right,?

    Problems with buttons and links at the top of the page not working can be caused by an extension like the Yahoo! Toolbar or a Babylon extension that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links and buttons in that part of the screen not clickable.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

    HI Ana ...
    I had FB working again two days ago, and yesterday in mid-serve Safari just "couldn't find the server" once more...
    That's a different issue...
    First, if you can just use English, open System Preferences > Language & Text then select the Language tab. Drag English to the top of the list then restart your Mac.
    Now for the server issue. Try using Open DNS. That shold help the "couldn't find the server" issue...
    Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.
    Click +
    Enter these numbers exactly as you see them here.
    208.67.222.222
    Click +
    208.67.220.220
    Then click OK.
    Try accessing Facebook on Safari now.

  • Why does system preferences not pop up after 2nd time accessing it using right click on desktop?

    Any help? Genius bar was stumped. I reinstalled mt. lion, but it still persists. Thanks.

    Your question is very confusing ... especially "after 2nd time accessing it using right click on desktop".
    "Using right click" -- why would you do that?  What are you right clicking?
    "On desktop" -- does that mean on a vacant area of your desktop?
    Anyway, a quick way to System Preferences is to simply click normally on the System Preferences icon in the dock, which looks like this:

  • Why can i NOT use "differential" on the MAX test panel for channels 8-16??

    I have a USB-6218
    This is a 32 channel device with 16 Differential inputs.
    Why can't i use the MAX test panel to view any channel beyond AI-7 using the Differential setting? It shades out differential even though my device has this capability.
    WHY???? 

    I am using MAX 4.1.0.3001 in conjunction with LV 8.0 and the USB-6218.
    I go to MAX, Expand devices, expand MX devices, Right click on the USB-6218 (device2), and go to the test panels.
    From there i am unable to view any differential pair beyond 8.
    How am i supposed to Thru-Calibrate my equipment? Generally to achieve a valid calibration i use MAX itself to record the raw voltages the board "sees" as i apply known loads to the sensors.
    The reason i need to check all this out is because DIFF pairs > 8 also are not working in my VI! Im am not sure if this is related or not.

    Why can't I use iCloud it keeps saying my email not verified but even tho I changed email in appleid.com and have signed into this forum with exactly same details it keeps telling me it's wrong .... Sooooooooo very very stressful

    You have to respond to the verification email that Apple sends you by clicking on the Verify Now link.  Make sure you are check the email address you used to set up your iCloud account.  Also make sure you check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox.

  • Why can't I use my itune card I redeemed

    Why can't I use a gift card I recieved to make itune purchases

    What happens when you try to buy something, what are you trying to buy (you can't use your balance for gifting, you can only use a credit card) ?
    If this is the first time that you've tried to buy something and you are being prompted to enter card details then unless you used the instructions on this page when creating it : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store. You should be able to remove the card after entering it.
    Or, and if you are being prompted to review the account, then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054

  • How do I use Right Click Functionality in Captivate 5

    Hello there,
    I am trialing Adobe Captivate 5, with a view to purchasing it, and I have been loving it, but have hit a snag.  My Right Click actions are not working except with the web preview.  I noted from the manual a lot of restrictions and from reading here I am not able to change AS3 to AS2.  Does this mean Captivate 5 does not let you use Right Click options.
    I would greatly appreciate your help because I do love this software but if I can't create elearning with multiple Click Boxes and Right Click functionality, I may have to look elsewhere.
    Thanks again.
    Penny

    Rodward,
    I downloaded and unzipped the file you linked. On my work laptop with XP, IE 8, and Captivate 4, it ran perfectly.
    On my personal laptop with Windows 7, IE 8, and Captivate 5, it did not run. (I got the JavaScript line 81 error.)
    On my personal laptop, I created my own right click project in Captivate 5, published with accessibility turned off, and it would not run (line 81).
    I copied my Captivate 5 published files to my work laptop, and it would not run there either.
    I don't have any third party toolbars installed on either machine. I'm running Symantec antivirus on my work laptop (where your project worked but mine didn't) and AVG on my personal laptop (where neither project worked.)
    Is there something you did in your JS file? Or some little tweak you made in your Captivate project?

  • Using firefox 14.0.1. Loading a link using right-click and "Open Link In New Window", results in new window opening but address bar does not show URL..

    Using firefox 14.0.1. Loading a link using right-click and "Open Link In New Window", results in new window opening but address bar does not show URL. However, if I right click on a link and select "Open Link In New Tab", the Tab shows URL in address bar. So it's working when it's a New Tab but not a New Window.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
