Why do I get a new tab along with the website I am opening?

Every time I am opening a website, I am getting a New Tab attached to it. This tab can not even be closed.

The tabs I have open show as new tabs rather than the websites I had opened.

I have a large number of tabs open in a window, and when I hit "restore previous session" to open them, they are shown as "new tab" rather than the websites I had opened. Prior to the previous two updates, I had no problem with this, but now it's a recurring issue on Firefox.

Make sure that the history and possibly the disk cache are working.
Do you see the history in the History Manager (Library; Show All History)?
To see all History and Cookie settings, choose:
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Options+window+-+Privacy+panel
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] 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
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).

Why does Firefox sometimes put the New Tab "+" button to the left of my open tabs instead of to the right?

[Re-posted with additional details when I thought this post had failed. Please respond to the other post and ignore this one. My apologies for the duplication.]
In some windows, seems more likely after a crash recovery (but not sure there's a connection), Firefox puts the New Tab "+" button to the left of my tabs instead of the right. This is annoying, because once you're used to clicking it to the right of your open tabs, it's confusing to sometimes find it to the left.
If I go into Customize mode, it still shows the "+" tab on the right, but as soon as I close Customize, it's really still there on the left edge of the screen.
Why does this happen and can I stop it? I have seen no reports of this problem posted by others, but it's been happening for me since at least Version 12 and not fixed by version 13.0.1.

This may be related to session restore.
*[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=774943 bug 774943] - Session restore puts "+" button in the wrong spot and hides first tab
*[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=714382 bug 714382] - Leftmost tab is hidden when reopening browser window

I brought in a slideshow but photos didn't include comments. How can I get my comments imported along with the pictures?

I brought in a slideshow but photos didn't include comments. How do I get my comments?

First make sure you've added the comments you want to show in the Add a Description field in iPhoto or in the Title field. If you put them in the Title field and you envoke the feature in iDVD you won't have to delete the title from each slide to give you just the desciption. Or batch remove the Titles from all the photos before you add them to the iDVD project. You can allways get them back with the Photos ➙ Batfch Change menu option later on.
Click on the cog wheel menu button at the bottom and select Show titles and comments checkbox.

HT1692 Can I clear my contacts off y iphone, and then sync with iTunes and return them back to y iphone, my IPHONE keeps retaining nos that it shouldn't, I delete them off, during edit, and they just return and added to the new contact along with the new

I Really would like some help, this problem has been with me for a couple of months,
i seem to be having problems with my contacts.
WHen I edit a contact, and pop in a new contact number, and delete the old number. It looks like it has been done. when I go to write a message or go back into the contact, it has the old number there again, I have deleted off the computer contacts as everything is under I cloud anyway. It seems fine on my iMac, but still retains the old nos, and other info, mainly on my IPHONE. Would it be useful to take all contacts off my phone, and reinstall them from my iTunes, or back up of whatever.. I am a nana, so please. Be gentle with me..
Regards
Jan .

Why do i get Adobe premiere pro family with the Edu plan for CC ?

I bought , the edu plan for creative cloud. And all i get is Adobe Premiere pro ? Any ways i could get the Normal version of Adobe Premiere pro ?

As per the EDU plan, users are entitled to get all the applications mentioned in this webpage.

If you are looking for Premiere Pro CS6 instead of Premiere Pro CC, that's not possible in CC as with cloud you will get the latest applications.

New tab page only shows icons when I open a new window, not when I open additional tabs within existing window. Help!

When I click the + sign to open a new blank tab, I don't see any of my favorite / pinned websites. I can only see this when I start a new browser window, and only for the "landing page". Once I go to any other page, I can not get my new tab page with tabs to display.

I fixed it. I went into about:config and had to change browser.newtab.url to about:newtab
Thanks though! Marking as solved, have a great day

I use "firefox -new-tab anyPage.html" but it does not open it in new tab. Instead it replaces the last active tab.

Well I use following command to view offline pages using firefox on my linux box
$ firefox -new-tab anyPage.html
But instead of opening it in new tab, it replaces the last active tab.
I have tired
$ firefox -new-tab anyPage.html &
$ firefox -remote "openurl(anyPage.html,NEW_TAB)"
But none works.
Sometimes it do open in new tab but mostly it does not. I have been unable to figure out any pattern.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

(''Note: cross posted from [https://support.mozilla.com/nl/questions/801471 here].'')
I had the same problem, but was able to fix it somewhat.
# Open the about:config page.
# Set the ''browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction'' setting to 0 (= zero).
On my machine this will open new windows in a new tab. However, it switches to the new tab regardless of the setting ''"When I open a link in new tab, switch to it immediatly"''.

When I open a new tab by pressing the + sign, I am taken to another search engine other than Goodle. How can I prevent this so that I go to google?

When I open a new tab, I'm taken to a page that is not google. I want to start with google and go from there.

You can check the browser.newtab.url pref on the about:config page and set that pref to your preferred new tab page.
* the default new tab page with the tiles is about:newtab
* the default home page is about:home
* for a blank page you can use about:blank
The browser.newtabpage.enabled pref should be set to true to use the page set via browser.newtab.url as the new tab page.
See this article about the New Tab page (about:newtab):
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites
Your System Details list shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time Firefox starts.
The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be there.
You can check its content with a plain text editor (right-click: "Open with"; do not double-click).
The user.js file is read each time Firefox is started and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.
You can delete the user.js file if you didn't create this file yourself.

How do I get a new tab to automatically open showing the google search page?

When I open firefox, I see my google home page but when I open a new tab it shows the searchnu home page. It used to be blank and I don't know how or why it changed, but can you tell me how to get my tabs to open automatically showing www.google.co.uk please?

Type about:config into your address bar, press enter. Accept the warning. Search for browser.newtab.url, double click it. Put in www.google.co.uk. You should be good to go :)

I can't get a new tab to open, either by pressing the + sign, going to file new tab or by right clicking and selecting new tab. What's the problem?

I can't get a new tab to open. I've tried pressing the + sign, going to file-new tab and by right clicking and selecting new tab. Why won't a new tab open?

Try "Ctrl+T" for a new tab.

So what happens when you connect to iTunes?

Why do I get a new tab along with the website I am opening?
