Why doesn't my tab button on the keyboard work since upgrading to FF 16.0?

Noticed this when trying to move on your website, GMail etc so that I can move from field to field (example: To field in Gmail, hit tab button on keyboard to move to Subject field).
Tab button non responsive.
Safari and Chrome still have this ability. Obviously something has occurred as I upgraded today to 16.0 and yet I was fine in 15.x.
This key is important for speed for daily work. Please advise how I can re-activate it's functionality.
Thank you.

See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/accessibility.tabfocus
Note: In OS X (as of 2005-01), if this preference is not explicitly set, the “Full Keyboard Access” setting in System Preferences will be honored. All builds before that date (e.g., Firefox 1.0.x) will ignore that setting.<br />
This pref doesn't exist by default, so if you want to use it instead of the system settings then you need to create a new Integer pref with the name accessibility.tabfocus and set the value to what you want (7 is to tab through all the fields).

  • When word processing, add a "tab" button to the keyboard

    I was looking at the layout of the keyboard on the ipad, and while it's useful to have the "go to #" button on both the left and right hand sides, the buttons themselves could be smaller. With the extra space, a tab button (more on the lefthand side) would be really useful when word processing.

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

    ''dupe of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/932160''
    [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.

  • One button of the keyboard doesn't work correctly

    Hi there,
    I have a problem with my keyboard:
    One button of the keyboard doesn??t work correctly: I want to write down a vowel with an accent (like in French and Spanish?), but if I press the button ´ and then the vowel, TWO dashes (´´) and the vowel appear: ´´i. Normally, there would automatically be an accent on top of the i.
    I have already tried a different keyboard, but it??s the same problem when I connect it to my notebook. I have also tried to choose a different language like French and Spanish, where they have those accents, but it still doesn??t work.
    It would be great if somebody could help me.
    Thanks a lot,
    Hanna

    Hi Hannah,
    You do not say which options you have changed to try using a different language, but there are several options which do slightly different things.
    If you go into Control Panel and select "Regional and Language Options", a new window opens with 3 tabs across the top. Choose "Languages" (the middle one), then press the "Details" button. This opens another window which allows you to view and change settings including the current input language and keyboard settings.
    Changing some of these settings will not make any difference until you reboot your machine.
    I hope this helps, let us know how you get on!

  • I am looking for a specific photo in my event folder, it does not show up, yet when I use the search feature, the photo is there.  Why doesn't it show up in the folder?

    I am looking for a specific photo in my event folder, it does not show up, yet when I use the search feature the picture is there.  Why doesn't it show up in the folder?

    What system and iPhoto version are you running?
    If your're using iPhoto 9 or later  Command (right) - click on the photo in the search window and select Show Event in the Contextual menu. 
    That will take you to the event where the photo is.

  • In FF 7.0.1, the New Tab button on the Tab Strip disappeared after clicking the Tab Group icon and trying to return, so I'm looking for advice on how to get the New Tab to reappear on the Tab Strip.

    In Windows Vista, FF 7.0.1, I selected the Tab Group button to try it out. However, when I selected the Tab Group button again to close that view, the New Tab button in the Tab Strip no longer appears. I'm requesting help to restore the New Tab button (has the "+" sign on it) on the Tab Strip just to the right of the currently open tabs.

    You can find the New Tab button showing as a '+' on the Tab bar.
    You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab button that shows as a plus sign (+) from the Tab bar on another toolbar and it will become a regular toolbar button like the New Tab button that you have in Firefox 3 versions.<br />
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    If you can't find the New Tab button then click the "Restore Default Set" button in the Customize window.
    If you want the New Tab button at the far right end of the Tab bar then place a flexible space to the left of it.

    Googling shows that you have the 1G iPod.  For apps you need at least iOS 2. The iG can go as far os 3.1.3 that you get here:

    Just be aware that there are presently not that many apps that work with a 1G with iOS 3.1.3

  • The New Tab button on the right side of the last tab is missing.How do I get it back?

    The New Tab button on the right side of the last tab is missing on the Tab bar How do I get it back?

    For now, you can try using Ctrl + t to open new tabs if you can't open them otherwise, but try right clicking the tabs bar, clicking "customize," and then in the window that comes up try clicking the "restore default set" button. I don't know if it will work in your case but it wouldn't hurt to try.

  • Used to have a little "OPEN NEW TAB" button to the right of the current tab. Since my upgrade to 6.0.1. this is gone. How can I get it back?

    Thanks for the reply. My button was after the last tab until I upgraded. What I did was restore to default tool bar and the button was there. I then re customized my tool bar the way it was.
    Thanks again for the help.

  • In the previous version of Firefox you would open a new tab by clicking on the small "Open New Tab" button at the Right Hand Side of the Tabs. This button has now disappeared in my upgrade.

    I just installed Firefox 4. In the previous version you would open a new tab by clicking on the small "Open New Tab" button at the Right Hand Side of the Tabs. This button has now disappeared in my upgrade. Firefox help still says you can open a new Tab by using the "Open New Tab" Button so how do I get it back??

    I got it back by going to "customize toolbar" and hitting "restore default set"! Now there is a small tab next to my open tabs with a "+" on it.

    Hi Razmee,
    Thanks for your response.
    The mail server worked when I originally set it up and continued to work for months afterwards.
    What would make the outgoing mail server not be set up correctly after all that time?
    Thanks again.

    Some apps require updating when a new operating system comes out. Check with the developers of the apps you're having problems with and see if they have an update or workaround.

    Why doesn't notes in Mavericks show the notes i had on iCloud in mail in Mountain Lion?, why doesn't notes in Mavericks show the notes i had on iCloud in mail in Mountain Lion?

    Ask a fifth time, and maybe the answer will appear.
    Are the notes actually in iCloud?  If you go to iCloud.com and log in, do you see them there?  If so, it's an issue on your computer side.  If not, then the notes don't exist on the server.
