• Firefox 8 puts new tabs opened from links in another tab at the end of the list, NOT next to the tab it just as in V3.6. I want it next to the tab that it comes. How can I do this?

  Question as noted, sums it up. When I click on the mousewheel on a link in a tab, for I want a new tab open with that link and want it beside the tab, I clicked on the link in any as Firefox V3.6 has done. Firefox 8 is always open the new tab at the end of the list and boy is that embarrassing!

  Please tell me how to solve this problem.

  Define the Boolean browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent true pref on the topic: config page.

  To open the topic: config page, type Subject: config in the address bar (address) and press the 'Enter' key, as you type the url of a Web site to open a Web site.
  
  If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access this page.

  • Use the filter at the top bar of the on: page config to more easily spot a preference.
  • Preferences that have changed also show "BOLD" (user set).
  • Preferences can be reset to the default value using the context menu if they are set of users
  • Preferences can be changed via the context menu: Edit (string or integer) or toggle (Boolean)

• How to change which opens a new tab when: automatic configuration does not work?

  Hello
  For some unknown reason, my new tab changed from google to a weird yahoo one today. I can't find how to restore it back even after I did google my homepage and default search engine. I checked online and saw that maybe I could fix things with the car: config but I can not even open. When I try a search engine opens. Any help would be appreciated.

  ^:
  I use it on: on the home page and use a mozilla.cfg file to do this automatically for each Firefox profile and use this file in every version of Firefox, so it's always close at hand.

• I'm not able to open a new tab manually. I tried to click on the new tab button and going to file and clicking on new tab. This is the case since 20:00 02/10/2011.

  I have been using Mozilla for about 4 years and never had any problems by opening a new tab manually. But since yesterday, I am not able to do. I even uninstalled Firefox and then re installed. No change.

  Try to disable or uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar, following a security update in Firefox 3.6.13

• Ive installed the new flash player and it will not work.

  I recently had my pc infected by many viriuses. my pc has been cleaned by some of the following malwarebytes, avira and macafee. I think that iam in 32-bit windows Explorer. When I looked there is nothing after the ' # ' but it doesn't say "in the level of 128-bit encryption. What can I do?

  Hi again, ok. Now since you have McAfee as a paid version, I would like to uninstall Avira or turn it off at least. The rule is to have an anti-virus program, since most of which will cause conflictions. MBAM is ok, as long as it's right on your desktop and you run it when you want.

  What we will do is to uninstall the current version of Flash Player, install vs 9, then uninstall vs 9, then install the most recent Flash Player vs which is 10.1.102.64.

  To do this, use the administrator account.

   

  Go to this site and download and SAVE the program uninstaller on your desktop:

  http://kb2.Adobe.com/CPS/141/tn_14157.html

  Go to this site and download and SAVE the installer to your desktop:

  http://kb2.Adobe.com/CPS/406/kb406791.html

  You page down for Solutions and under Windows in Flash Player 9 and use the Internet Explorer 1.46 MB

  Go to this site and download and SAVE the installer to your desktop:

  http://www.Adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html

  You will use the Windows, Internet Explorer download EXE to install

   

  Once you have on your desk, using the administrator account, you CLOSE all browser windows.

  Disable McAfee & Avira

  Look in your tray (area near the clock) system for instant messengers, yahoo, aol, etc and turn them off.

  Your computer, run the program uninstall and when it's finished, Reboot (restart).

  Check and make sure that McAfee & Avira are always disabled.

  Run the Setup from vs 9 and when you're done, restart your computer

   

  Test your browser here and you should be able to see the Flash animation (spin) logo and the Flash Player version must be listed.

  http://www.Adobe.com/software/Flash/about/  Must vs 9

  Now, you run the program to uninstall again to uninstall vs 9, when finished, restart your computer

  Check and make sure that McAfee & Avira are always disabled.

  Run Setup vs 10.1.102.64 and when finished, restart your computer.

  Then test your browser and you should have now installed 10.1.102.64 vs.

  You may want to print these directions to make it easier to follow.

  If you have any questions, let me know.

  Thank you

• BlackBerry smartphones, I bought a torch as 9800 NEW in box and it does not work. Help?

  the first problem is that the menus are not all there.

  instead of the torch symbol (dots) referenced in the online help pages, I have a small house. who's taking me on a single page of icons, which have all of the options.

  the function to find my pin code does not work as I don't get the option 'options' on all screens!

  is it still really a blackberry?

  everything seems legitimate, with the exception of software / installation.

  Help?

  It's a fake.

  Good luck.

• My tabs won't open with the "open a new tab button" or CTRL + T. If I right click I can open a link in a new tab, but not to open a vacuum.

  I click on the new tab button and it does nothing. Even the + next to the current tab produces no result. I have just no way to open a new empty tab.

  PDF files on my desk I have already registered. When I open the PDF file, firefox considers justified to open a new tab, even if I do not have the browser open.

• 'open a new tab' button on the toolbar will not insert a new tab after current

  I want to open a new tab button at the right end of the tab bar to open a new tab, after the currently open tab Similarly the browser does when the browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent profile option is set to true.

  The current behavior is VERY annoying that I still have many tabs open and then scroll all the way to the right of the tab bar and drag the new tab to where I want, which is always on the active tab.

  Not sure if this has been already supported but if not, I used to run Tabberwoky which is no longer works and I became very fond of the function and I do 8 Firefox to do this.

  Please tell me how, that I cannot or should do otherwise.

  Thank you.

• Is there a way to disable the function where firefox opens a new tab when you scroll a click in the header bar?

  Is there a way to disable the function where firefox opens a new tab when you scroll a click in the header bar? This feature in conflict with my program of multiple monitors (display fusion) since this program allows you to change your current active window the monitor 1 monitor 2 and vice versa BY clicking the header of BAR SCROLLING (or whatever you call the highest part of your window). With firefox, I can't easily change my active window between monitors because instead, it opens a new tab.

  If the window is maximized, you can then switch this pref to disable the display of the tabs in the title bar:

  • browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar = false

  You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
  You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

• FireFox 19 - stop new tabs to move to Yahoo Search

  I have Firefox 19.0.2. When I run it, it opens with Google Search (n. b., that's what I want). When I open a new tab, however, he indicates that he he has switched to Yahoo Search. I have to click on "Homepage" so he can go to Google Search.

  Most of the solutions I found on the Internet were rewritten in 2009 or 2010, and solutions do not work. I tried to enter ' subject: config' in the URL line and search for "default page" and "search here", but I can't find anything like that.

  I tried uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling it, but I still have the same problem - the first tab is as I want, but each new tab I open Yahoo Search. I suspect it's because I kept the customer file and my favorites.

  I would be extremely grateful to anyone who can tell me how to make new tabs open with Google Search and get rid of Yahoo Search. Thank you

  Hello Chesslover17, try the Add-on SearchReset

  If the above does not, Try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

  (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

  • You can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

  Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

  If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

  To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

  When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

  Thank you

• Distorted icons and buttons especially the new tab button

  Certain keys, such as the new tab button are distorted. It was the series of changes after what I noticed this (initially I was using firefox 41 on system from 21 to 64-bit fedora with XFCE desktop environment):

  -Upgrade fedora at 22

  -Installed LXDE desktop (with XFCE)

  -Theme installed atolm (http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Atolm?content=136789). Just extract the contents of the archive in ~/.themes

  -past to this theme

  -used the rodent icon theme (XFCE)

  Up to this point, that I had not opened firefox and so I do not know when this problem occurred. I decided to remove LXDE and switch back to XFCE. I thought that this distortion of the icons happened probably because of an incompatible Openbox desktop configuration. This problem persists in the XFCE desktop environment too. I tried changing themes to see if a bug with the theme is causing these things, but remained it. I reinstalled firefox but the problem still persists. There is no option in the Customize menu to solve this problem. In addition, firefox menus do not use the gtk theme.

  I have updated my firefox in another system and installed fedora-21 the same theme gtk and this one is very good. The menus are in accordance with the gtk-theme and the icons are not distorted.

  @cor-el

  I tried with the theme by default too. Did not work. I changed the icon theme and rebooted. The distorted icons disappeared!

  This seems to be a problem with the rodent icon theme.
