CTRL + left click does not work for me, so I can't open the link in a new tab using this shortcut!

When I press ctrl + left click on a link, nothing happens. The only way to open a link in a new tab is by right clicking, which is not very practical

I had this problem as well. I reduced to a conflict between two of my addons. In my case, Tab Mix Plus v0.3.8.6 and GreaseMonkey v0.9.10. Then, I checked the sites for these two addons and discovered that this is a known issue and will be fixed in GreaseMonkey v0.9.11 (which apparently is in beta at the moment).

For those of you experience this problem, check if your addons may be causing it.

  • Satellite L500 CTRL + left click does not work in Windows 7 after update

    Hello
    I have a Satellite L500 running Win 7 64 bit. I have recently installed the latest windows updates and you've probably noticed that I can no longer select multiple items by holding the CTRL key and clicking on the left. This applies to files in Explorer, but also emails in outlook. When I try just hangs for a few seconds, but is unable to select multiple items. Someone else has encountered this or have any suggestions for healing?

    It is nothing lost in trying this Vista solution since there is no registry hacks etc [you cannot use keyboard shortcuts to select multiple items in Windows Explorer after installing some applications on a Windows Vista-based computer: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934548/en-us]

  • Left click does not work in Hotmail or Yahoo

    I was running low disk space and my IT dept says: they removed some "temporary files". Everything they did watered IE so that she came back to v7 V8. They Redid the upgrade of IE and installed a bunch of updates to MS and updated Java, but I'm still having a problem in FF. Most of the sites are fine, but when I go to Yahoo or Hotmail email, left click does not work. I tried to uninstall/reinstall FF. I tried to launch FF in safe mode and reinstall some of the plugins I thought that might have effects. I still can't run. I used some of the tools web dev in FF, all I know is some of the errors that are reported on the loading of the page. On Hotmail, one is that a var called 'JQuery' is undefined, among others.

  • CTRL-SHIFT-click to open the link in a new tab (v10)

    I came back to Firefox recently after trying to use Chrome for a while. I welcome my return, except that in the update of v9 to v10, I found one of my favorite keyboard shortcuts no longer work as he had.

    In v9 and precedent, Ctrl-Shift-click opens a link in a new tab and switched to it immediately. V10, Ctrl-Shift-click still opens the link in a new tab, but does not pass, even with Options: tabs: when I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately enabled.

    When you use the mouse to open a link in a new tab, it switches on it immediately as expected.

    I thought I was going to have to live with it (or not), but then to find some documentation noting that Ctrl-click now offers the functionality I was used to.

    Great! However, backward compatibility with old features could save me some temporary disappointment and some additional research.

    BTW, I noted in another post several of the reasons why I returned to Firefox from Chrome.

    Two key combinations seem to work in Firefox 8, 9. and 10 for me.

    Change when I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately from disabled to enabled reverse functions {Ctrl + click} and {Ctrl + Shift + click}.

  • MouseWheel will not open the link in a new tab

    I used to be able to click on a link with my mousewheel and Firefox opens the link in a new tab. It has stopped working.

    I use Windows 7 Pro and Firefox 36.0.1

    Should what settings I check. Windows looks OK, I use the same mouse and it has stopped working on web sites where this technique used to work until a few days ago.

  • My left earpod does not work with my iPhone 5s, can someone help me?

    I bought my iPhone 5s in February 10. Last week my left EarPod does not work correctly. I can't send my entire the EarPods iPhone Warranty because I need him to work. Thank you for the support.

    Try to test another pair of headphones with your iPhone to see if the problem is with the earphones or headphones.

    Otherwise, try using the EarPods on another device, like a computer, etc..

    If the problem is with the phone, I suggest to check for debris inside the headphone jack (don't push all objects in there).

    If the problem is with the EarPods, download replace them. ( https://checkcoverage.apple.com/ )

  • 'Open the link in a new tab' does not work. I tried with all disabled add-ons and it still does not work.

    When I right-click a link and select 'open in a new tab' and 'opens in a new window', nothing happens. In addition, nothing happens when I type a query in the search bar and press ENTER. I tried to restart firefox in safe mode and disabling all add-ons, but the problems continue.

    The setting in "tools > Options > tabs: open new windows in a new tab instead" is for links that specify a target window (for example, target = _blank) to open the link.
    This option allows to divert these links into a new tab instead of a new window.
    Links that do not specify a target always open in the current tab, unless you redefine that with a middle-click or Ctrl (Mac: Cmd) left click (new tab) or a left click UPDATE (new window) or via the context menu.

    You can check if you have the XML files including Google's default search engine in the browser\searchplugins file in the Firefox program folder.

    If this isn't the case, then you need to reinstall Firefox.

    Try to delete the file search.json and possible search - metadata.json and search.sqlite files in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the default search engines.
    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

    Firefox will rebuild the file search.json from the default search engines in the folder "browser\searchplugins" in the Firefox program folder and the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.

  • c 36. will not open the link in a new tab, opens the tab I'm on

    by clicking on a link or a bookmark will not open a new tab, it opens on the tab I'm already. Have already tried tools/options/tabs/check the windows open again in a new tab instead. It does not work.

    Hi, Firefox doesn't. You need to right click > open link in a new tab. Otherwise, click the mouse wheel. Or, hold down the Ctrl key when you click on the left.

    There are also modules such as Tab Mix Plus,or bookmarks only, try to open bookmarks in new tab.

    Hope that helps.

  • Have a new computer running Windows 7. Microsoft 4000 wireless mobile mouse: left click does not work, can not solve the problem.

    Have a new laptop with Windows 7, ASUS Intel-i5. Initially, the automatic installation of my Wireless mobile mouse 4000, which I had used with XP, has worked. Only problem was that the mouse was stubborn, when you attempt to left click: i.e. get something - and persistence was needed to get there. Now I can not at all to a left click. Tried all resolution of known issues, left click procedures still dead in the water.
