WIth upgrade I no longer can right click on a bookmark to open in new tab, only the "open" choice if available to me. How to correct please ?

When I try to right click on a bookmark to open in a new tab the menu pops up but only "open" is bold, the other choices are no longer available. Please advise.

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>

If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''

  • I just updated to Firefox 17.0.1 and now I can't click on a bookmark to open it or open new tab when clicking new tab button.

    In FF 17.0.1 I have several bugs to mention. I am only able to open bookmarks by right clicking them and selecting Open In New Tab from the drop down menu. I am unable to open a new tab by clicking on the new tab button or by clicking open new tab from the FF drop down menu at top of browser. Also, none button work in FF, such as Home, Back, Forward, or refresh. This is so aggravating!!

    After I posted this, I restarted with add ons disabled and it worked..deleted a cpl of addons for compatibility checking and that fixed it.

  • Double click on the left arrow on the tab bar creates a New Tab at the right hand end.

    With Firefox 29.0.1 double clicking on either the left or right hand arrows in the tab bar creates a new tab at the right hand end of the tab bar. This is annoying behaviour that violates standards around UI design single click and double click. A double click should extend the behaviour of the single click rather than doing something completely different (opening a new tab). An example would be , in Word a single click selects a word, a double click selects the sentence and a triple click selects the paragraph. Note that this is a separate issue from double clicking on the tab bar itself to create a new tab.
    When there are more tabs on the tab bar than will fit in the viewport the tabs scroll sideways so show the tab in use. I can click the left and right arrows at the ends of the tab bar to scroll the bar in that direction to bring a tab that I want to select into view. I believe that double clicking the left arrow would scroll the bar fully right, exposing the left-most tab. Double clicking the right arrow would scroll the bar fully left exposing the right-most tab.
    This is a logical and expected extension of the behaviour of the single click. Single click - scroll once (seems to be about three tab's worth), double click - scroll all the way.
    At the moment, if I want to scroll to the left-most tab I have to click the arrow slowly and carefully until I reach it. I used to single click rapidly on the left arrow until the tabs stopped scrolling without having to count how many clicks. It's possible that my rapid single clicks were actually double clicks. Nevertheless, the tab bar would stop scrolling when it reached the end.
    Now the behaviour is really annoying and unexpected. A double click on the left arrow scrolls the tabs fully right and then fully left and creates a New Tab at the right hand end. Ditto the right hand arrow in the opposite direction.
    While I can (maybe) see that value of a double click on the tab bar itself creating a new tab, double clicking one of the scroll arrows should not produce a new tab.
    Double clicks on the tab arrows should scroll the tab bar fully to that end. If the tab bar is already fully scrolled to that end then additional clicks (single, double and triple...) should be ignored.
    I like the idea of opening a new tab to the right of the one that currently has focus. This should be a right click context menu option.

    That shouldn't happen if you click the scroll buttons on the tab bar.
    A double-click should act as page up/down and move a full screen and a triple-click should move to the far left (first tab) or the far right (last) tab.

  • Right-click on browser.xul.error_pages.expert_bad_cert and select Toggle. The value will change to true.

    I am working with Firefox 30. I get a certificate error on each webpage I go to. I have reset and uninstalled the browser to no luck. I have also did the following:
    Open a new Firefox window, and type this into the address/URL:
    about:config
    - You'll probably see a warning that changing the config can be dangerous. Click the button to accept the warning and proceed, but BE CAREFUL from here on!
    - A table will appear showing various Firefox settings ("Preference Names") and their current values.
    - In the Filter box type: broswer.xul
    - There should now be a shorter list of settings, including one named browser.xul.error_pages.expert_bad_cert with a value of false.
    - Right-click on browser.xul.error_pages.expert_bad_cert and select Toggle. The value will change to true.
    - Exit completely from Firefox (i.e. close all windows), and then restart it.
    This has not worked either. Does anyone have any other thoughts?

    Any idea why you are getting these errors?
    If you expand the technical details section of the error page, there should be some kind of explanation or code there. Can you copy/paste that into a reply?
    If it says something along the lines of "sec_error_unknown_issuer" this can indicate one of these situations:
    (1) Incomplete security software installation
    Some security suites include a feature to intercept and scan your web traffic, including secure connections. In order to do this, they must present a fake certificate to Firefox, which of course, Firefox rejects. Programs such as ESET and Kaspersky provide a way to either turn off this feature, or import a master certificate into Firefox so that Firefox will trust these programs.
    Does that sound relevant?
    (2) Malware
    Unfortunately, some malware also will intercept your secure connections. Often they can do this invisibly in IE and Chrome because they can inject certificates into the shared Windows certificate store. Because Firefox uses its own certificate file, you may get errors in Firefox that you do not get in IE and Chrome.
    To distinguish these, it's helpful to inspect the "Issued by" section of one of the certificates from a site that works in IE but not Firefox.
    When you get the error page in Firefox, you can expand the "I understand the risks" section, and click the button to Add Exception. You don't need to actually save an exception to inspect the certificate, so you can cancel after viewing the certificate.
    Check the "Issued by" section to see what you find there. For example:
    * Name associated with your security software, such as ESET, BitDefender, Kaspersky, etc.
    * Sendori (indicates unwanted software from Sendori)
    * FiddlerRoot (indicates unwanted software named similarly to BrowserSafeguard, BrowserSafe, SafeGuard)
    * Something else

  • In Firefox 4 with IE Tab 1.98.2011.322 Right clicking on a bookmark in the bookmark bar no longer brings up the option to open in an IE Tab.

    In the previous version of Firefox when I right clicked on a bookmark in the bookmark bar the IE Tab options would appear. They no longer do since I have moved to Version 4. It would be great to get this ability back.. Thanks

    My gosh, friend this is so awesome..I just tried it and it works.. how did you figure this out btw?

  • How can I click on a bookmark and have it open a new page? When I click a bookmark it always opens right in the sidebar, all my bookmarks disappear and I am left with two seperate pages?

    I keep my bookmarks open at all times in the sidebar. If I want to go to a site, say Google, I must do a right click on the bookmark and then click on "Open In A New Tab" then the google page opens in a new tab.
    I want to skip the second click. I want to be able to simply left click the google booknark in the sidebar and have google open in a new tab.
    the way things are now, when I simply do a left click on the google bookmark the new google tab opens in tne sidebar itself. My bookmarks disappear from the sidebar and the google page is opened in the sidebar. So at this point I have two active page open at the same time.
    Is there a way to simply left click the bookmark in the sidebar and have the bookmark open as a regular page?
    Please pardon my clumsiness as I have only today used FireFox for the first time.

    Opening in the Sidebar is the default action for bookmarks that are created via a "Bookmark this Page" link or button on a website. Make sure you use the many "Bookmark this Page" methods that are in Firefox instead.
    Right-click that bookmark and select '''Properties''', then un-check the preference for '''Load this bookmark in the sidebar''', and then click Save.

  • I can right click to select "check spelling" in e-mails, but how do I change a setting for this to occur automatically? I often don't remember to right click!

    I use the Firefox browser.

    Are you using a Firefox 17 ESR version?
    You can check the update channel in: Help > About
    Please update to the current Firefox release.
    *Help > About Firefox
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/update-firefox-latest-version.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Updating+Firefox
    The Firefox 17 version that you currently run is no longer supported with security updates.
    *It is important to update Firefox and add-ons to the latest version to get all security fixes.
    Note that websites can disable the spelling check via a spellcheck="false" attribute.<br />
    In current releases this will remove Check Spelling in the right-click context menu, but in your old version this will uncheck the box in the right-click context menu.
    You can right-click in the text editor area and use "Inspect Element" to see if this text area has a spellcheck="false" attribute.<br />
    Removing this spellcheck="false" attribute by selecting it via a double-click and using the Delete or Backspace key should make the Check Spelling item in the right-click context menu reappear.

  • Lost ability to right click multiple files and choose 'open with'

    In XP I can select a bunch of mp3 files, for example, right click and choose 'open with...' whatever application I want.
    In windows 7 I only get 'open with' in the context menu on single files. How do I enable 'open with' for a selection of files? Please tell me Windows 7 hasn't disabled this useful behaviour.

    Hi,
    You can change the register key to realize the function.
    For example, your mp3 player is windows media player, you can copy the following content (without quote) to the notepad and save it with the “.reg” extension.
    The context is below:
    Warning: While this procedure might solve the issue or problem, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall the operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk. For more information about modifying the registry, see Microsoft support article 256986.

    You should change the bold text with the path of your player. After you’ve changed the key, you can right click the chosen MP3 files and choose “open with player” to play the music.

    Did you use the generic installer or the win32 one ? You should use the former with Win64.

  • Problem with opening new tabs, when I right-click on a link and open in new tab it doesn't automatically load up like firefox 3.6 always did. Is there anyway to fix this?

    for example there's a link a friend sent me in my e-mail and I right-click on it, and select "Open in a new tab" it pops open like normal, except it does not load the page, I have to click the box and press enter to even get it to load it. In previous versions I have never had that problem, current version of Mozilla Firefox I am using is version 4, previous was 3.6 hope this helps figure this out.

    I've been taking screen shots for years and opening them from my desktiop. Suddenly, today, I've lost the ability to open them. I can right click on the picture and do "quicklook", but that's it. They just won't open.
    Similary, if I scan an image and save it as a PDF file in pictures, I'm suddenly not able to open it either!
    Why?

    Move the com.apple.screencapture.plist file out of /username/Library/Preferences/ to the Desktop, log out and back in, and try again.
    BTW, use the default 10 point setting for text. Your choice just wastes screen space.

  • In Bookmarks, when I right click on a bookmark "SORT BY NAME" is no longer there. how do I get it back?

    In Bookmarks I used to be able to right click on a bookmark and in a menu box I could click on, SORT BY NAME, sort by name is no longer in the right click menu. I don't want to have to drag to sort bookmarks as I have too many. How do I get "SORT BY NAME" back in the right click menu in Bookmarks? Thanks, HT

    In Firefox the option to sort bookmarks is only available for folders and not for individual bookmarks.
    Easiest to sort by name is to do that in the left pane of the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) and right-click the folder that you want to sort.
