Double open new tab option
I'll be back to a parent, who also use the FF. Much to my amazement, it has as well an icon in the menu bar "open new tab" and tab "+" in the tab bar, while I can only drag from one to the other, but it seems not be kind to have both options. It is not a very big deal, but it is sometimes useful to be able to open a new tab or the other.
Is it possible to enable this feature, and I'm not really afraid to edit all the files to do this?
You can do this with userChrome.css code
Drag the new button tab on the bar of tabs to another toolbar via customize to make visible here and use code in userChrome.css to make the new button original tab on the visible tab bar as well.
Customization files (interface) userChrome.css and userContent.css (Web sites) are located in the chrome folder in the user profile folder.
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */ #new-tab-button { visibility:visible!important; } .tabs-newtab-button { visibility:visible!important; }

Cannot open new tabs to the menu, with double click or Ctrl + T
Has been using firefox without problems until this morning. Now impossible to get a new tab to open by double clicking on the tab or by selecting 'new tab' file, or by using CTRL + t. run OS x 10.6.8.
Click on the sign + to open new tab
Command (CMD) + T = Mac
CTRL + T - Windows / Linux
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to fix the problem and to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

When I turn on my new laptop, I want to www.google.ca to open and I want to be able to open new tabs/windows from this page. I tried to set the default to open this page, but it seems stuck on "Edge".
Hello
You use Windows Edge as default browser?
(a) If Yes, then try to google.ca as your home page by using the following configuration:

Cannot open new tab by clicking on a link in a Web page
One other "feature" caused by a rejection not tested Mozilla daily "updates...
WinVista, FF15.0.1
When I right click on a link in a Web page and select "Open in new tab", the new tab is displayed with the name of the link in it, but I have to select this tab to view its Web site. Was that in previous versions of FF.
Oh, Yes, I DISABLED the "do not open new tabs until you have chosen.
I solved my problem when I double-clicked accidentally as parm and so enabled to FALSE.

Firefox opens new tabs in the form of tabs first, then move on to the new windows
I'm running FF 14.0.1 and the problem has persisted through a number of versions.
Initially FF will open new tabs... CTRL + t work, do a right click to open in a tab etc all work fine. Sometimes the tabs are now question and I can get maybe 20 or open several tabs. And then other times we seem to be an arbitrary limit, say 5 tabs, and then each new tab opens a new window. No external link opens in a new window, a Ctrl + t opens in a new window, all new windows are the only image, for example, you can have a number of windows each tell 5 tabs, just the original (for example) window 5 and then a series of windows with only unique pages in each, and which Ctrl + t doesn't open a new window.
A full restart sometimes heals things and I can go back to have different pages in different tabs and then something... without obvious motive... launch us in the "new window only" mode after what even if I reduce the number of tabs in the original window many tabs, Ctrl + t opens only new windows.
He's really starting to happen to me... I have searched the technical support information and wonder about a full reset or even uninstall and reinstall. places.SQLite is verified as valid and I also, have it reindexed all to no effect.
Try Firefox Safe mode to see how it works there.
A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.
(If you use it, switch to the default theme).- You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 4.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.
Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.
If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.
http://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themesWhen find you what is causing that, please let us know. It might help others who have this problem.

I used the same setup file, but on 1 pc, the "Open new tab" button is available in the menu 'Customize toolbar' and can be dragged and drop on the navigation bar. On the other pc, the "Open new tab" button/icon is not yet available for drag / drop. I uninstalled firefox completely, including the settings and preferences, then reinstalled, but that has not fixed the missing button.
Hello
Please try to restore the default value in the Customize... window. If it is still not visible, one of the reasons could be that the button is already placed on the toolbar, but can be hidden behind a different icon or toolbar.

Disable 'open new tabs' privileges for an add-on?
Hello, I have 2 modules that continually open a new tab leading to their sites AFTER an update
My computer is slow, but I need plugins too.
Rather, I put them to update automatically, but how do I disable 'open new tabs' privileges for an add-on?Maybe it's a small nuisance for some users, but I don't think that mozilla would do something against it is not violation of the guidelines of addon developer...
in fact, to open a new tab after some mozilla firefox updates itself, so that disable see: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-stop-firefox-making-automatic-connections#w_whats-new-page
If you want to start a discussion about this neverteheless, then the best place to do it would be addons to https://discourse.mozilla-community.org/c/add-ons forum where staff and reviewers of addons.mozilla.org participate as well.

Often when opening new tabs of pages newtab miniatures (topic: newtab) newtab - full page refreshes or otherwise falters. This sometimes causes some tabs are not open when ctrl-click on several thumbnails in a row. Page newtab recalculates after each click what thumbnails it should show, and this could cause the flickering effect? (Although I don't see changes in miniature order.)
Hi FFanatic,
Please upgrade to the 32 version to see if it still happens. Go to Firefox and click on the update button. -
Why can't I open new tabs in my toolbar like I usually do?
I have google as my homepage, I have my email and my facebook as a PIN in the toolbar, and for awhile, I open other tabs check school email and things on my page of e-learning for the school. I was able to do this no later than 4 hours ago, now I can't open new tabs. Don't know what happened, I disabled modules as the proposed post and nothing.
Hello aprillthompson,
I also suggest you update to the latest version of Firefox, but the reset Firefox functionality can resolve many issues in restaurant Firefox to its factory default condition while saving your vital information.
Note: This will make you lose all the Extensions and preferences.- Sites Web open is not recorded in less than 25 versions of Firefox.
To reset Firefox, perform the following steps:
- Go to Firefox > help > troubleshooting information.
- Click on the button 'Reset Firefox'.
- Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is finished, it will display a window with the imported information. Click Finish.
- Firefox opens with all the default settings applied.
Information can be found in the article Firefox Refresh - reset the settings and Add-ons .
This solve your problems? Please report to us!
See you soon,.

Since yesterday, 06/11/2013, I can no longer open new tabs in my browser. I've been using Firefox for almost 10 years and I've never had this problem.
Hello debbiesuerd1, you can try to reproduce this behavior when you start firefox in safe mode, once? If not, perhaps an addon intrudes here...

Cannot open new tab by going to the file/new tab (or CTRL + T or by clicking on the new field of the tab). One is to right-click on a link and choose open in a new tab.
I found that the ASK toolbar is the culprit. I have no recollection of ever install Ask and wanted not just her in any case. Withdrawal fixed the problem.

Open new tabs randomly during firefox sessions. By example, if I leave firefox running all night, the morning there will be 4-6, open new tabs, even if the computer was intact all the time. Don't open new tabs to the Web sites; they just empty.
It always happens with a new and clean profile?
You can use this profile only during the night.

I use Firefox 9.0.1 on a Windows 7 laptop. Since the upgrade to 9.0 and 9.0.1 Mozilla and Speed Dial open new tabs as if they have been updated, although there has been no update. Colorful tabs 8.0 does as well, but I disabled it.
It should not be a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder, unless you other other software or Firefox extension he created.
Can you post the contents of user.js if you have such a file?
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: opens showing the file
You can also try to rename prefs.js to prefs.js.old to reset all preferences, in which case there is a problem with the file as shown in the articles.
