Bookmarks open in a sidebar, no window

When I double click on a bookmark in the bookmarks Menu or the toolbar, it brings it upward on a sidebar to the left of the current tab, rather than open the site in the active tab. I don't know why he's doing this or how to use bookmarks correctly. I tried the tips of help - it does not solve the problem.

Thank you.

This problem occurs more often when you clicked on a link on a website to bookmark the site. Do not click on "bookmark this site" or a similar link/button on web sites.

To correct each of the affected bookmarks, make sure that "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" is selected/checked by doing one of the following:

  • Open the Favorites bar (Ctrl + B to open or close the bookmarks bar), right-click on the offending bookmark, choose 'Properties', last question at bottom above the buttons ' Save/Close.
  • In the library window (bookmarks > show all bookmarks), click on the offending bookmark, click on the button "More" at the bottom of the details (right-hand) pane, item is the last item above the word "lower to."

  • How to disable the bookmark open in the sidebar?

    I clicked on a button to allow bookmarks to open in the sidebar instead of in a tab. I didn't know what it meant and now I cannot find the way which stops.

    You can access this in two different ways, depending on what seems more practical:

    (1) right click on the bookmark (in the lateral toolsbar/menu/bar, if applicable) > properties, then look for a checkbox at the bottom of this dialog box to uncheck

    (2) select the bookmark in the Library dialog box (Ctrl + Shift + b or "show all bookmarks) and if necessary, click the 'More' button at the bottom of the right pane to reveal the checkbox for this

  • Why bookmarks open in a side window?

    When I click one of my favorites, it opens in a wide window of three inches on the left side of the screen instead of in a normal web page. The only way to avoid this is to type the url in the top of the screen, which pretty much defeats the purpose of having bookmarks. Any suggestions?

    BTW, I am still WHAT XP and which may be a contributing factor.

    Opening in the sidebar is the default value for the bookmarks created via a link or a button on a Web site.
    You can view the properties of a bookmark using the context menu in the side bar (Ctrl + B; Command + B on Mac).
    In the Bookmark Manager (Bookmarks > show all bookmarks) you can click on the button more in the lower details pane on the right.
    Make sure "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" is not selected.

  • When I click on a bookmark stored in my bookmarks bar, it opens in a sidebar instead of a new tab. How to open in a new tab?

    I just created my bookmarks bar with my URL more often used. However when I click on a URL of my toolbar bookmark, it opens in a sidebar on the left on my main screen and not in a new tab. The sidebar is heavy, because I have to scroll to see the entire screen. How can I get the URL to open in a new tab, not in the sidebar?

  • Somehow my yahoo e-mail opens in a sidebar, and I can't get out. Or it opens superimposed on all other tabs. Can anyone help? Thank you

    Recently my yahoo mail is open in the sidebar, or it opens as a full tab, but is overlaid on all other tabs and the only way I can get the other tabs is to close the overlay of yahoo mail. There are no controls showing except upper-left, it says YMail (and YMail how I listed in the menu bar if it is affecting any) and on the right is an X.

    So, basically, I can't keep my mail open in a tab and do something else. I hit probably just a strange combination of keys, or it could be something with the last update (ff39) but I don't know how to get back to normal. He isn't past with other tabs or bookmarks.

    I did some research and could not find an answer. I opened with all add-ons disabled in safe mode, but the problem was still there. When I click on the side bars 'show' that is not listed (just bookmarks and history) so I can't uncheck.

    Anyone have any ideas? It's just a nuisance, but I'd love to have solved it. Thank you.

    With regard to the opening in the sidebar:

    The most common reason for this is a bookmark that has been added directly by a Web site. Due to restrictions on the operation of the websites with bookmarks, these usually have an option configured to open in a sidebar.

    To correct this:

    Right-click on the bookmark > properties

    Then uncheck the box at the bottom to "load this bookmark in the sidebar".

    What is fix?

    In regard to be superimposed on the other tabs:

    I can't imagine that. Is the site to go full screen? The F11 key toggles between full-screen and regular view mode. If the Web site generated a full panel screen, generally the ESC key will return to normal.

    If you see this once again, you might experiment with these keys.

  • After CTRL + N for the new window, bookmarks toolbar disappears in the new window

    When I have a completely, properly functioning window with tabs running with the bookmarks toolbar visible and then I use CTRL + N to open a new window, the 2nd window does not display the bookmarks toolbar.

    When I go to view > toolbars, toolbar bookmarks show a cheque. He is not here in the new window, but in the first window. Looks like a bug caused by CTRL + N?

    It is repeatable and it happened several times. I 12.0, but this has happened with other versions of Firefox as well.

    In safe mode, the toolbar was not visible but I checked "View Bookmarks ToolBar" right below the search window, and now when I run Firefox in normal mode, the behavior has stopped.

    I tried to open several new windows, with a lot of tabs in all first, and the bookmarks toolbar is now displayed when it is supposed to.

    Thanks for the suggestion. I guess that's now resolved?

  • Cannot change the sidebar of windows to its transparent State

    Original title: Customize windows sidebar

    I can't return my sidebar of windows to its transparent State. It is now opaque and a distraction. How can I make transparent again?

    Hi Bhoionbykke,

    1. who is the edition of Windows that is installed on the computer?
    2. don't you make changes before the show?
    3. what exactly happens when you customize the sidebar?

    If you use Windows Vista or Windows 7, then we recommend you to make a right click on the sidebar and change its opacity.
    See Customize Windows Sidebar

    Also run convenience store Aero and check the result (if you use Windows 7)

  • Well, it's embarrassing, but bookmarks open in the initial view.

    I've got Acrobat Pro Extended 9.4.5, on 64-bit Windows 7, with Tech Comm Suite (FM, PS) 2.

    I know the drill:

    Drop-down file menu > properties > initial view > Navigation > bookmarks and Page Panel

    But it does not work. Bookmarks are there, but only weakly. Appears a bit lame pop-up window

    After that you select view > Navigation panels > bookmarks.

    At the top of my left hand panel, the 'Pages' and 'Signature' icons are displayed by default, but I'm

    used for bookmarks open actually left when I save a file in this way.

    Cannot know what is ruin the natural order of all things Acrobat.

    I can't say for sure, but it seems to me that the Bookmarks panel got not rooted in the navigation pane and is now a floating window. To put the navigation pane again. Click on the word "Bookmarks" tab (as opposed to the bar at the top of the window) and drag it to the navigation pane, where it should appear then as usual. Selecting: view > Navigation panels > Dock all panels
