Hi,
Please check if this happens in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode]. Safe mode disables the installed '''Extensions''', and themes ('''Appearance''') in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - the manual setting is '''Tools''' > '''Options''' > '''Advanced''' > '''General''' > [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Advanced%20panel?as=u '''Use hardware acceleration when available''']. All these settings/options/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme, option or hardware acceleration is causing issues. Disabling/enabling hardware acceleration, and some types of add-ons in normal mode may require a Firefox restart.

How do I choose which webpage opens when I click open a new tab?

When I click "Open a new tab" Firefox takes me to yahoo.com. What if I want it to take me to google.com?

The normal behavior is to open a blank tab. An add-on will be causing it to open to Yahoo, a possible add-on doing this is the freeze net assistant. If you have that add-on you can uninstall it.
The NewTabURL add-on will let you choose what you want to open on a new tab, but I would only install it if you uninstall the add-on that is opening Yahoo due to possible conflicts between the add-ons - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl

When I right-click a link, and choose "Open in new tab", it opens in a new window instead. How can I fix this?

So I have Firefox open, and I've tried to open tabs by right clicking and choosing "open in new tabs", but it opens in a new window instead. And yes, there are no problems with being able to open new tabs by pressing the ctrl t.

The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

Safari 6.0 crash when right clicking a link and choosing open in new tab

Hi all, just a general question. I admit i did not search the forums yet. Hopefully this little annoyance can be resolved.
When using safari on say CNN.COM i'll right click on a link and choose Open in new tab. safari randomly disappears. no crash warnings, just gone. I can open it right up and be fine sometimes all day. This has happened to me about 5x since ML was released (i wiped my laptop the day it came out)
This has happened on a couple of different website at different times of the day. only safari was running. No other apple apps have this issue.
I have a MacBook Pro from earily '08 type 4,1
i have only apple software on this machine
i do have adobe flash installed v11.3 updated today.
i do have lastpass enabled
i do have ad-block disabled
While i'm waiting for help from you guys i'll disable all addon's and try to remove adobe to see if that is the issue. Is there any other steps i can try like delete .plist file or maybe even trying a new user profile. I am a IT professional and am not afraid to get my hands dirty trying to get this resovlved.
Thanks in advance.
P.S. i'll search the forums too and if i see a similar post i'll remove this one.
Bill Siegfried.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
Step 1
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

How do I get FF to focus on a new tab? I right-click and choose "Open in New Tab" and the Tab appears in the Tab bar but I cannot access or see the new page.

I open FF ver.10. My Home page is Google Search. I use a Bookmark and open, say, Hulu.com. I select a link by right-clicking and choose "Open in New Tab" The little tab in the tab bar opens but I am still viewing the Hulu.com main page and cannot view the new tab.
This happens even if I use middle-click to open a new tab. It happens with all links on any website I visit.

Can't open new tab by going to file/new tab (or CTRL+T or clicking on the new tab field). Only way is to right click on a link and choose open in new tab.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

When I select "open a new tab" the tab opens in a different window than the one I'm using. This is release 11.0, and did not happen in 10.0

Firefox 4 has massive delay opening a new tab with audio content, Firefox 3.6.16 opens the same link instantly, why?

When I open a new tab to stream an audio mp3 file from the server. Firefox 3.6.16 streams the audio instantly, Firefox 4 has really long delay with just white blank page, befor it comes with QT player. why?

I've been searching for a solution for this for months. Frankly, I'm sick of Mozilla ignoring this problem, which has persisted from version 4 through 6. Makes me ill.
The content is actually downloading, but Firefox hides the content until the entire file is downloaded. It used to display and allow you to play the partially downloaded content. Safari does this with ease. If someone can point out the parameter in about:config that controls this, I'd be grateful.

How do I get Firefox's home page to open a new tab when searching?

I'm slightly modifying Firefox's about:home page, and I'm trying to get the home page to effectively be its own app tab. In order to do that, I need to make it so that when I search with it, it opens a new tab to view my search results.
I've tried two things so far; I've tried adding the attribute '''target="_blank"''' to the '''<form>''' tag, and I've tried adding the attribute '''onclick="this.form.target='_blank';return true;"''' to the '''<input>''' tag nested inside of the '''<form>''' tag (I'm guessing the latter is JavaScript lol). I also tried an extension "TabSubmit" which didn't work here.
I know how to edit the right page (I'm changing the contents of aboutHome.xhtml in omni.ja), and have already edited the stylesheet slightly (to underline links when hovering over them and adjusting the fading of Mozilla's logo when hovering over it). This is the next change I wanted to make.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

The about:home uses window.location.href = url; to change the location of the current tab.
Changing this to window.open(url); and adding a line at the end of the aboutHome.js file to initialize localStorage works for me with a locally saved about:home page.
<pre><nowiki>function onSearchSubmit(aEvent)
let searchTerms = document.getElementById("searchText").value;
if (gSearchEngine && searchTerms.length > 0) {
const SEARCH_TOKENS = {
"_searchTerms_": encodeURIComponent(searchTerms)
let url = gSearchEngine.searchUrl;
for (let key in SEARCH_TOKENS) {
url = url.replace(key, SEARCH_TOKENS[key]);
window.open(url);
aEvent.preventDefault();
localStorage["search-engine"]="{\"name\":\"Google\",\"searchUrl\":\"http://www.google.com/search?q=_searchTerms_&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a\"}";</nowiki></pre>

When using firefox and each time I open a new tab I end up with a split screen and it is annoying. How so I fix it.

I open firefox. Go to website then where there is a + sign I open a new tab. A new tab comes up but then splits the screen into two with a new tab in the middle and I end up with 3 small split screens in the one instead of 3 separate tabs.because it is doing that i cannot then get a full screen and go about my usual business. Lately there seems to be numerous problems with fire fox loading also. it continues to come up with page not found and try again. I hit try again and then it may find the page. these are on sites that I access daily and have done so for several years now. Never before have I had so much trouble with fire fox. Not only I but we have four computers accessing the internet ...have done for some time and never had this problem but everyone is suddenly experiencing the same problem. The only thing new that has been put on the main computer is a K9 protection thing recently and I am wondering could that have anything to do with these issues and if not is fire fox having tech issues . How can these problems??

Firefox 4: Bookmarks will not Open in New Tab"

Firefox 4.0
Bookmarks menu, the option to Open in New Tab is not working. I can open bookmarks in existing tabs but nothing happens when choosing new tab.

OK, I think I have found the issue. If you have imported your bookmark groups or have previously set them up as group that opened just from clicking on the group - it will not work.
I have created the group again and all works fine, I have another issue now - I can not deleted the old group from my list!
Hope this helps.

Why not Restore Ctrl-Leftclick Link to Open in New Tab?

Between versions 22 and 24, ctrl-leftclick went away as a keyboard accelerator to open a link in a new tab.
Now there are two ways: rightclick the link and pick a munu item to open in new tab, or middleclick the link.
Rightclick and choose menu item is more difficult, as it requires actually looking at and reading the menu.
Middleclick is not as easy or reliable for most people today since the middle mouse button is usually a wheel and difficult to click with any precision.
I can see no reason why you shouldn't restore Ctrl-Leftclick to open a link in a new tab and lots of reasons why you should. Will you please do so?

Yes, this is caused by their click tracking script. When you hover over a link, it looks normal, but:
<a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-250_162-57607188/no-deal-yet-government-shutdown-debt-limit-talks-continue/" '''onclick="return lc_trackclick(event,'9848', 'No+Deal+Yet%3A+Talks+Continue');"'''>No Deal Yet: Talks Continue</a>
We've seen another site with this issue in the past, but it only affected a few links at the bottom of the page so it wasn't as annoying.
Besides the two workarounds you're using (right-click, middle-click), you could strip those click trackers. Three possible approaches:
(1) Find an extension that works on that site
(2) Remove the tracking manually using a bookmarklet (a script you save to your Bookmarks Toolbar as a button)
(3) Remove the tracking automatically using a userscript (a script that runs in the Greasemonkey extension or the Scriptish extension)
Since anti-tracking extensions are pretty common now, you might check those. Please note that if they aren't coded carefully, they could stop links on some sites from working correctly.
If you decide you're interested in a more tailored solution, you could request a userscript to be developed on this forum: [http://userscripts.org/forums/2 Ideas and script requests - Userscripts.org]. Please note that the site does NOT check scripts before they are posted, and takes forever to remove bad ones, so protect your personal information by not installing anything that touches Facebook and cast a skeptical eye on reviews.
