• By clicking on the link does not open new tab

  By clicking on a link in an e-mail message (MAC Mail) open FF and directly to the page, if Firefox is closed. Fine.
  However, if FF is already running, by clicking on the link only FF put in the foreground, but does not open a new tab, or the link fills in the current window tab. The only way to make it work is to right click to get the 'Quick Look' URL, and then open this page.

  This is happening to me, same, on Mac OS X 10.6.8 but only since I've upgraded to the latest version of Firefox, 32.0.1. I can click on a HTTP link in another application and Firefox becomes the active application, but it will not load a new tab for the link, as expected. Instead, it just sits there. I have to go back to the other application and click on the link a second time, during which point Firefox correctly open a new tab and load the destination URL.

• Firefox does not open old tabs

  My computer crashed last night and on restart of firefox, it goes to a new page without any of the old tabs. Passing under story has all the options for restore recently closed shaded windows.

  I confirm that it is set under preferences to open previous tabs on firefox startup.

  I had the sessionstore.js file get corrupted before. Research in the profile folder, showed the sessionstore.js to a 1 k file. So my first instinct was to restore this file, simply and thankfully, there is a file sessionstore.bak with an end PM last time, so this file should still have my last session.

  I made a copy of the sessionstore.bak file and rename it to sessionstore.js, but firefox opens with a new session. I had the windows Explorer (File Manager, for example) open and as firefox was starting, the sessionstore.js got put in a 1 k file suggesting that firefox is the compensation the last session on opening. I tried to restore sessionstore.js to sessionstore.bak once and sessionstore.js read-only, but firefox still will not return to the previous browsing session; Instead, it creates a new file called sessionstore.js.tmp.

  I'm at a loss as to how to get back my old browsing session. I always use firefox V28.0. I don't have not upgraded to V29 because of not wanting to lose the ability to export the tabs as shown in the comments of the android version of V29. Operating system is Win 7 SP1.

  The sessionstore.js file is a JSON object, and I think that there are tools developer for syntax checking and perhaps repair. However, recent research has led me to pages that were a bit over my head.

  Lack of a tool that supports JavaScript, my next step would be Microsoft Word, simply because I do a lot of complex find/replace in Word and I'm sure that I could extract the URL like this.

• Links in search results does not open new tabs.

  I'm missing something here and in other threads on this topic. I used to be able to search in the google search bar, for example, and a new tab opens with the search results. So if I left clicked on a link in the search results another new tab open and go to the linked page.

  I don't remember how that was put in place, but I know that I didn't have to enter: config or install a special plug-in for it. I think that it has been implemented in the mixture of label more module.

  I have no problem with search results, open a new tab, it is that I must now click on a link or right click + click 'open in new tab '.

  What has changed here, and why? My old method worked in ver 21, he turned into worm. 22.

  It seems that all these "updates" remove stuff that we used to have without notice and then come up with more finger clicks and config edits to make what was simple before.

  For the search bar in the Navigation toolbar, you can set the browser.search.openintab true pref on the topic: config page.

  For the Google Web site, you can make the change to the Google search settings page you can open through the gear icon on the Google results page.

  Note that you can always force a link to open it in a new tab on middle - clicking on the link.
  
  This also works for some entries in the context menu and some buttons (home, registration in the back and front button drop-down list etc.).

  Hi jgorve.

  Looks like it may be better if you got a new start by uninstalling the current version and upgrade to the latest version of Firefox by following these steps:

  • Get the latest version: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
  • Uninstall your current version of Firefox.
  • Do not remove the data of a personal nature when you uninstall the current version.
  • Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
  • It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
  • Your bookmarks and other profile data stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a relocation, but make sure that you do not select delete data of a personal nature if you uninstall Firefox.
  • It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.

  Hope that helps!

• Firefox does not open a new tab page, but if I use the "right mouse botton"-> "Duplicate tab" as it opens a new tab how can I solve this?

  Firefox does not open a new tab page, when I click on the small + firefox does not respanw, but if I use right mouse botton -> tab double as it opens a new tab how can I solve this?

  Uninstall the toolbar Ask and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask and Firefox toolbar that prevents the opening of new tabs.

  There are a few places to check for the Ask toolbar:

  • Check the control panel Windows for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
  • Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

• Firefox does not open a link after the first; Open ok in new tab front.

  In the last week or two, for reasons not clear to me, Firefox does not open the new links after the first; It is used to open a new connection in new tabs (according to my preference) without problems in the past. Now it does not blink again.

  Over time, I've added new applications and others removed, and, of course, I can't exclude from their role in the problem that I have now. I would appreciate some help to solve this problem.

  You have this problem when running in Firefox SafeMode?
  
  http://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/safe+mode
  
  Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.

  If this is not the case, see this:

• Firefox does not open more than one window, only opens new tabs. Firefox does not open in safe mode.

  Firefox does not open more than one window at a time, and then opens only new tabs. When asked to open the link in a new window - nothing happens, no error message or the page appears. Otherwise, it works great, but no new firefox window cannot be opened menu or the mouse. I tried to reinstall firefox several times, which did not help.

  This has happened

  Each time Firefox opened

  Is 3-4 months ago

  There are some extensions that are causing a problem like that. See this:

• Firefox does not open in full screen on the task bar and I have to go over it to see the web page.

  Firefox does not open in full screen on the task bar and I have to go over it to see the web page.

  Firefox window is sometimes "off screen" somehow. Often, you can force it to appear on the screen by right clicking on the thumbnail image just above the taskbar and choose expand. Does it work?

  A possible cause for this is that the file that stores the positions and sizes of window is corrupt. You can delete this file and Firefox will return to standard window resizing.

  #1 method: If you can get a zoomed window:

  Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
  • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
  • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

  In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

  Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

  • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
  • (menu bar) File > Exit

  Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.

  Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

  #2 method: If you can not get a Firefox window for all:

  Close Firefox by right clicking the icon in the taskbar > close all windows.

  Using the Run dialog box (windows key + R) or the start search bar menu type or paste the following and press Enter to drill down to the profiles folder:

  %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
  

  Here you can see a folder - in this case, double-click that - or more than one case - in this case, double-click on in what looks like the most recently updated.

  Scroll down and rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.

  Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

  Then, to re - light bars, you can use one of the following methods to view the list of the toolbar, and then select the desired bars it:

  • Right click on a place empty on the tab bar (or the button '+')
  • Press the Alt key to activate the classic menu bar > view > toolbars
  • in customize mode > show/hide toolbars (see: Customize Firefox commands, buttons, and toolbars)

  To activate the menu bar, toolbar bookmarks or other bars, click it in the list.

• After you download the update of Firefox 25.0.1 Firefox does not open. Help! Thank you!

  I downloaded the update for 25.0.1 and he ran. Instead of restarting, I stop the laptop (Vista Home SP2, 64-bit).
  When I started the laptop again, I tried to open Firefox, but Norton Internet Security leader Insight could not check the update as a reliable file and did not allow for Firefox open.
  I tried to disable file Insight but got the same results.
  I ran Live Update to update Norton Internet Security and then tried to open Firefox again.
  This time this Norton Internet Security displays a message saying that updater.exe wasn't careful and eliminated.
  When I try to open Firefox, Norton now detects Updater 25.0.0.5046, said he trusted, but Firefox does not open.
  I want to save the history if possible.
  How can I get Firefox to work with recorded history again?
  Thank you!

  Hi iamjayakumars - I was not able to create a new profile, because the Profile Manager does not open. A message from Norton seems "Updater.exe is sure.", but nothing else would happen.
  But - the links you sent were very helpful, and I was able to solve the problem by making a UN-installing and then re - install Firefox:
  1. backup of the profile.
  2. download the installer of Firefox from Mozilla.org with another browser.
  3. un-install Firefox from the control panel (ensuring "Delete my personal Firefox and customizations data" was NOT selected.)
  4 reinstall Firefox.
  Firefox starts successfully with all my old settings and all the tabs I had open the last time it was used appeared as I had hoped.
  Thanks a lot for your help!

• Nothing does not open my tab when I click on it, what can I do?

  Nothing does not open my tab when I click on it, what can I do? Otherwise everything works fine. But I have to open many new sites of browser in order to work in different areas. I've updated my site so it's not the problem.

  The reset Firefox feature can solve a lot of problems in restaurant Firefox to its factory default condition while saving your vital information.
  Note: This will make you lose all the Extensions, open Web sites and preferences.

  To reset Firefox, perform the following steps:

  1. Go to Firefox > help > troubleshooting information.
  2. Click on the button 'Reset Firefox'.
  3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is finished, it will display a window with the imported information. Click Finish.
  4. Firefox opens with all the default settings applied.
