I tried to run firefox in safe mode, and the problem occurs here as well.

type in the address bar Subject: config

then press i ' l be sure to what I promise

then type in the browser.link.open_newwindow bar

then, double-click on it and change the value to 2

Press OK, close firefox and restart.

    Hello

    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).

    • Under Windows, 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.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • 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.

    This problem has been annoys me, because God knows how long and I just can't get rid of it, at least I have reset Firefox which is really not want I want to do just to get rid of this tiny but irritating problem.

  • cannot open new tabs on firefox 24. + sign does not nor do 'file '->' new tab '.

    Update Firefox 23 to 24. Since then, I can't create new tabs though when I navigate to 'close the tabs right' it displays correctly the number of tabs, I tried to create and close. He however open tabs from links.

    The sounds that you are on version beta update channel (help > subject).

    This also happens with the current version?

    You can find the full version of the latest version of Firefox 23.0 in all languages and for all systems operating here:

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode without failure.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile in the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

  • How to prevent the FF31 opening new window? I want to open all links in a new tab at the top of page.

    I think the following quote, below, for help on the page is my problem.

    I have a site that I use when I click on a link in the Web site it opens a new window with the tab down. In addition, when this happens, I lose the orange rectangle FireFox, bookmarks and navigation options. How can I define FF31 so that the link opens in a new tab, and I keep all my options? I use Classic theme restaurateur 1.2.3. I also note that, in the new window, I lose the ability to use some of the addons.

    I have two laptops and both are running FF31 and W7. One of them works perfectly and the other is having this problem. As far as I can tell they are both defined by the same. The only difference is that when I upgraded to FF31 they both had difference older versions of FireFox. I also read in the help forum that maybe I need to go back to FireFox 28 to accomplish what I am trying to accomplish.

    I noticed that when I'm going under: config that the version of FF that does not work unless options compared to the version that works. An example would be that the working version has 'browser.tabs.onTop' where, on the other computer laptop is missing.

    > > > open new windows in a new tab instead: this option controls whether links from other applications or from web pages which request to open them in a new window opens in a new window or a new tab in the most recent window.
    Note: If you have chosen to open pages in new tabs, Firefox will ignore this option and opens a new window from a link if the page author specified that the new window must have a specific size, because some pages cannot be displayed correctly to a specific size. < < <

    Thanks in advance for any help,
    Yeto

    You can override how the links are opened through the browser.link.open_newwindow.override preference.

    Use it for links opened via JavaScript.

  • Why are the texts and logos on the tabs do on new windows of firefox?

    Opening a new window of firefox, the text on the tab (for example Mozilla Firefox Start Page) and the logo to the left of this one first becomes misaligned, almost as if the text has been "cut in half" vertically and not place back together with precision. The button fullscreen and him "open a new tab" button overlap too on the upper right side.

    To access the full mode screen, cmd + ctrl + F must be pressed twice. Once to get back to 'normal' browser how the tabs should look like, with the text of the tab and the normal logo, and the second time it gets full screen.

  • Some programs open new window instead of a new tab in the open window

    Firefox 17.0.1. I have the option "Open new windows in a new tab instead" together, I use the addon of Tree Style Tab 0.14.2012111201 (and other unrelated tabs or windows), and I have several profiles. It seems that since I started to use several profiles some programs (help of MediaMonkey, for instance) insist on opening a new window of Firefox. If I select one or several profiles currently open it says "Current usage profile". Some programs who want to open a website to view their help files open a tab in the current browser, as window expected and desired. But most programs cause choose it display a profile box.

    Make sure that you do not start Firefox with the - No.-remote switch or have defined the MOZ_NO_REMOTE = 1 environment variable (Control Panel > system > advanced > environment variables).

    If you need to have several open profiles at the same time then start the following instances with the - no - remote line switch.

    You can't send links from other programs to a Firefox instance that is started with the - non-interrupteur to distance.
    In this case, you must drag the links in a Firefox window or paste the link into the address bar.

  • I get reimage opening new windows in safari instead of the links I clicked. I tried the force of suggestion smoking etc and uninstall without success. It seems very little help on this in the normal search engines. Any ideas?

    I get reimage opening new windows in safari instead of the links I clicked. I tried the force of suggestion smoking etc and uninstall without success. It seems very little help on this in the normal search engines. Any ideas?

    On the one hand, you cannot uninstall Safari.  It comes as part of the operating system.  So, I don't know what you've done or what you think you did, but this is not that.  Could you explain more by what you mean with "I get reimage opening in a new window?  You can post a screenshot of what happens?
