With FF8, home button opens a new tab (on homepage) instead of moving the active tab on homepage.

I'm using Vista, tried to uninstall and install FF8, had no effect.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Is there any way to to have the "Home" icon open a new tab instead of replacing the current page with the home page?

    I would prefer that the "Home" icon on the Navigation Toolbar open a new tab instead of replacing the current tab with the home page. Is there any way to accomplish this?
    Thank you.

    If you middle-click on the home icon it will open a new tab containing the home page.

  • Middle Button Open in New Tab Bug

    Like many people, I use the middle button when clicking links to open them in a new tab. In Safari 4.0.1 this feature is buggy. Sometimes it opens a new tab, other times it opens a new tab and the current tab ALSO switches to the clicked link. So you end up with two tabs of the same link. Seemingly at random it will work properly, and then not work.
    Note* In order to eliminate the possibility of mouse malfunction, I tested it with firefox and camino. Both opened new tabs 100% of the time with middle clicks of my Logitech G5. Safari opened new tabs without also switching the current tab to the link only around 40% of the time.

    ''''' "Sometimes the button does not register with Firefox. And sometimes FF acts like I pressed it several times." '''''
    Sounds like a mouse on its' way to mouse-heaven. Seriously, the exact symptoms I have seen with a dozen 3 button mouse's (?meese - ?mice) over the last 15 years. <br />
    Not registering a click is usually due to a dirty contact. And the "double-click" is when the flat spring looses tension and bounces.
    I have had similar happen with the left button, too. But when it happens to that button it is more noticeable much sooner.
    I bought a box of a dozen A4D house branded infrared wireless 3-button mouse's for like $24.00 back in 2000 that were on clearance because the driver disk didn't support W2K, only Win95, 98, and NT4. I got newer drivers from the A4D website and wore all 12 out over the 8 or 9 years. I even fixed a few that broke from the parts from other broken mouse's. I still have 6 or 7 of them laying in the "needs to be fixed" box under my workbench. I'll probably never fix them though, the nano receiver USB mouses I have been using for the 4 or 5 years have much better battery life and lately only need one AA battery.

  • Can the Intellipoint mouse center scroll button open a new tab?

    I have a Microsoft Wheel Mouse optical USB mouse with a scroll wheel which can be modified from within the System Preferences settings. The Wheel Button however has a limited number of options. Different from Windows, this mouse, in the Mac, does not have the option to set the wheel button to open a new tab. Perhaps I can't figure it out from the options available, but is there a way to force it to open a new tab, like in Windows?
    Thank you.
    Roxy

    My apologies for my late reply to your very helpful response.
    However, my question probably was not well made. What I meant was to click on a link with the wheel button and open the link in a new tab.
    What assigning command-t does is open a new tab. Not what I meant.
    Sorry about the confusion and I hope you do have a suggestion.
    Thank you very much.

  • How do I remove Yahoo search and replace it with google when I open a new tab

    I have tried everything that I can think of and every time I open a new tab, it opens in Yahoo search and not in google like it had before.

      1. Safari > Preferences > Extensions
        Turn those off and relaunch Safari again.
        Turn those on one by one and test.
    2.  Use  free  AdwareMedic by clicking “Download ” from here
         http://www.adwaremedic.com/index.php
         Install , open,  and run it by clicking “Scan for Adware” button   to remove adware.
         Once done, quit AdwareMedic by clicking AdwareMedic in the menu bar and selecting
        “Quit AdwareMedic”.

  • Neither CTRL T or clicking on the blank tab button opens a new tab.

    I am running Windows 7 and for the last few days, since the latest update on Tuesday morning, I have not been able to open a blank tab in FIREFOX 3.6. Last night I uninstalled FIREFOX and then downloaded it. Still I can not get a blank tab to open.

    Try disabling the Ask Toolbar extension.

  • Click 2 Staus King page keeps opening when I open a new tab. Why?

    When in News.com site and I open an article a seperate window opens as Click2status king. I can have multiple windows open with this. Sometimes opening a new tab for a previous site also causes this to open. I am worried that this is not safe and somebody is monitoring my keystrokes. It has been happening for a few weeks. I have scanned with Kaspersky and no threats are found. The page is blank except for the header.

    In the address bar type '''about:config''' then click on I will be careful set your''' browser.newtab.url''' preference to "about:newtab" .
    To set it, right click on '''browser.newtab.url''' then click on Modify and set the value and save it.

  • Safari 5.1.9 Why can't we set up Safari to open a new tab by clicking on a hyperlink?

    I have a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.6.8, using Safari 5.1.9.
    I was wondering why Safari doesn't have the option so that a new tab is opened after clicking on a hyperlink, and to avoid the need to control click?

    I just learnt, by accident, that simply clicking the 'Open Apple' button the 'select' button opens a new tab when accessing a hyperlink.
    'select' is the word I am using for an older MacBook Pro button which is located at the bottom of the trackpad.
      Which is a satisfactory answer to my question.
       Cheers.

  • Is there a way to answer the 5c without swiping? It really is a pain and hard to do at times one handed. Maybe allow favorites to be answered with a click of the home button or possibly all calls with a home button push

Maybe allow favorites to be answered with a click of the home button or possibly all calls with a home button push. First smart phone I have owned and the old flip phone was much easier to answer.....just press one button.

  • When I open a new tab, an unwanted website opens instead of my desired home page. THIS IS ONLY AN ISSUE WITH NEW TABS; (opening the web browser AND clicking on the home button frings me to my desired home page.)

  • When I left-click the home button, how can it open my home page in a new tab?

    I thought it used to do that. I had to do a clean install of Windows, I believe I was only on FF 22 or 23 when this happened. Now I'm on FF 26 and obviously all my settings are gone.
    I'm 99% sure that when I left-clicked on my home button, it opened my home page in a new tab. I know I can middle-click to get that affect, but it used to be left-click and I do that automatically now. But I don't want to lose the current window I have up, so something's wrong.
    Anyone know how to fix this? Or an add-on to do this?

    If you hold down the Ctrl key while left clicking the Home button then the home page opens in a new tab.<br />
    You can also middle-click the home button like you can with any other link

  • Can I set FF to automatically open in Google when I open a new tab instead of having to also click on the Home button?

    I often open a new tab and I'd like it to automatically open in Google.com rather than a blank page. Is there a way to make this happen? (I know I can click on the + to open a new tab and then click on the Home icon at the far right of the web address bar but I'd like to have Google open in one click instead of two).

    You can middle-click the Home button to have your homepage open in a new tab. Or you can install this extension and set its' option for your homepage.<br />
