Disappearance of new tab + sign * on the tabs them *.

After searching this forum to address this issue, it is obvious that those who responded do not understand the problem; at least the problem that I and many others whose questions I read wanted.

On each firefox tab, on the right side * of the tab itself *, there is an x to close the tab and to his right, there is a sign square boxed +.

This isn't the sign icon + a 'new tab' toolbar. It is an integral part of the tab itself. This isn't a separate, stand-alone icon. It is a part of * every * individual tab.

When I made the mistake of clicking the icon "groups" shortly after the upgrade to firefox 6.02, no no not an idea what it was, I have nothing more that watch for a while, and then close the rectangular window.

Shortly after, I noticed that my tabs no longer had a joint + sign to open a new tab with. At least one other person mentioned the clicking on the icon of "groups" and have this result. but many questions are being responds to instructions to place the new tab * icon * (the standalone icon) in the toolbar.

I'm sure they're very well-meaning responses, but they completely miss the point of the question. And I know how to open a tab with a keyboard shortcut, etc. But I wish that the original function of this joint tab + button.

Well, you have found a solution. You must mark this resolved so that others can see that you have found a solution.

    The user.js file is not there by default.
    It is present than if you or other software had created, so if you can't find it, then it's OK.
    Note that Windows hides file .js extension, probably, you see only a user with the type of JScript file.

    You can see in the screenshot in this article how the words: support page is supposed to look like and where the button is located in the Application Basics section below the user agent.

    Hi waukss:

    Go to the view of . Toolbars | Customize and click the 'Restore Default Set' button or drag the 'New tab' icon in the window customize (if available) beside your existing tabs. It is also possible by mistake, you drag the icon "+" to another bar tools and just need to drag back where it belongs. If none of this works, go to tools | Options | Tabs and make sure that 'always show the tab bar' is enabled.

    If you're really stuck, a double click of your mouse just to the right of your last visible tab [or file |] New tab (Ctrl + T)] should also open a new tab.

  • The symbol "+" to open a new tab to the right of the toolbar has disappeared recently. How can I get that back?

    There used to be a symbol '+' right of the bar tabs, making it easy to open a new tab recently that he disappeared, I noticed. Is the only way to open a new tab "file > new tab." How do the ' ' symbol back? Thank you!

  • New tab page as a tab (with the plus sign next to the tabs) open rather than below as a button to open a new page in the tab?

    Alrighty, the Firefox on my laptop (und such that she has always been with Firefox for me) has the "Open a new tab" button as a tab himself. Always to the right of the tabs I have open und is smaller with only one more sign on this subject. (+) I hit that, bam, a new tab page opens upward, always with the + page to the right to open another tab, if I want to.

    Yet, on the desktop that I use currently, this option isn't here. Instead, Open a button tab is a real personal touch I can move it anywhere near the bar of the browser, much as I have with the: start a conversation, current downloads, bookmark, home, options, privacy, etc... buttons.

    I like the feature to open a new tab with Firefox on my laptop but not on my desktop. However, I can't find anything on how to open a new tab appears with the real tablets themselves where it is conveniently next to the tab I'm on that, rather than being a button where I have to go to one side or the other of my screen to get a new tab to open...

    How do I change it?

    The image I have uploaded, 'B', this is what is on my desk, 'A' is what is on my laptop. "A" is what I want on my desktop.

    Don't know what you're going with "expected normal behavior." I was asking how to pass from one to the other, in this case 'B' to 'A' in regards to my image is concerned. But, in any case, go out of your first line "the new tab button displays a button"+"when the button is on the tab bar", it's answered my question without answering it directly.

    I asked how to get from one to the other, I know that both are possible. Which... answer my question would have been:

    Just drag the new customizable tab to the tabs above button, not the toolbar with the browser bar, etc. below.

    Behavior is not what I was asking, I was wondering how to change from one to the other. But thanks, move the button to the top with the tabs is what has changed for me in what I wanted.

  • The + symbol (to quickly open new tabs) to the right of the tab disappeared. How can I get that back?

    In the latest update of Firefox, the + symbol suddenly disappeared from the labels section. In the past, it has been used to open a new tab instead of having to go in the file menu. I would like to have the + symbol on the right side of the tabs and can not find a way to do this in the options or customize sections.

    Open the Customize and set the toolbar to display items.

    • Firefox '3-bar' menu button > customize
    • If the missing elements are in the palette to customize then drag them back into the window to customize the toolbar
    • If you don't see an item on a toolbar in the Customize palette, then click the Reset default button to restore the default toolbar configuration

  • Why order new tab not working? Or by clicking on + sign on the tabs toolbar?

    I looked at the response to the + sign does not. But could not understand what exactly was the solution. The file > new tab command is the same as clicking the sign +. Does not work for me UNLESS I have launch Firefox in "safe" mode (Option-click). I don't see why I have to remember Option + click on each time I open Firefox.

    I'm on a Mac mini (new in March 2014) with Mac OS X 10.9.4, Mavericks. What is the problem?

    The responses I've read here the terminology that I don't understand. (I've made a living writing manuals for HP and Apple computer, so I'm not naïve). Do you have a glossary somewhere?

    I just want to open multiple tabs in a single window and click on from one to the other. I'm used to be able to do.

    We have seen reports on an extension of community toolbar causing this problem of not being able to open a new tab.
    Your list of details of the system indicates:

    • WiseConvert Community Toolbar

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

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe
  • Why can't I just open a new tab with the "Plus" sign or "command-T"?

    If I want to open a new tab, I either press 'Command T' or select 'New tab' in the file menu, or click on the little "plus" sign in my tab bar - right? None of them work. What Miss me?

    This problem is Firefox on your Mac?

    Perhaps users have discovered that this problem is caused by led modules, for example a plugin Conduit and/or an extension "Community Toolbar".

    You can check and disable the extensions on page modules. Either:

    • Command + shift + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    What helps with the button "+"? If so, you can name the specific extension that caused the problem?

    You can also see the Plugins page modules. You can never use 'activate' to disable plugins that you do not usually use.

  • How can I put the new tab + sign back next to the tabs where it is easier to use?

  • The new tab page was going well for MONTHS, had an image I have uploaded. Today, I had a 'safe' mode what to be, and my image disappeared. How do I restore, so my image rises?

    I had set up my new tab page with an image I have uploaded. It worked fine for months, or even years.

    Today, I had a 'crash' that asked me to start Firefox in "safe" mode or "restore". I chose "restore."

    On this, my image disappeared from my the new tab page. I can't find how to restore and Add ons that supposedly allow me to add my own image are not useful. At least, I can't understand them.

    Can provide you assistance on a computer for Dummies level?

    If you deleted the folder "Old data Firefox" you have not the ability to restore your previous profile data.

    If it's an image you have stored on your computer, you can open this image in a Firefox tab (Firefox > new tab > open a file).

    This will give you the file:// URL in the address bar and you can use a copy and paste this file is enabled in the new tab page.

    You can set the browser.newtab.url pref on the topic: config page and set the value of this pref on this URL for you the new tab page.

    You can open the topic: config page via the bar addresses as you open a web page.
