  I do not do anything. I just read that a web page and a new tab will be opened with this video game. Any idea what's going on here?

  It cannot be the cause of your immediate problem, but I suggest strongly that you disable/remove your plug-in popular screensavers - a part of the troublesome MindSpark family.

• How keeping open in a new tab; TelevisionFanatic forever?

  Whenever I open a new tab, TelevisionFanatic is here. Go away, forever. Thank you.

  When you launch a new tab, you get a Web page on a site of TV fanatic? Normally, the only way to replace the new Firefox tab page is an extension.

  You can view, turn off and often remove unwanted extensions or unknowns on the page modules. Either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a (Mac: command + shift + a)
  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

  In the left column, click Extensions. Then, take a critical look on the list on the right side. All extensions are optional. 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.

  Any improvement?

• I use google search. When I click on a suggestion contained in the results tab of the search, I want it to open in a new tab and keep the search results in the original tab. How?

  For example, when I enter the search term "cabinets" and get a page/tab search results with suggestions such as Sears, JCPenney, or Amazon, I want to be able to click on Sears and open the Sears page in a new tab/page. I want to be able to close the tab to Sears and use the search results tab.

  Google offers a framework for this. What it does, it adds a HTML (target = "blank") statement to every result link, which causes Firefox to open in a new tab. If you uncheck the preference to divert new windows in new tabs, Firefox will then open the result in a new separate window.

  This preference is stored in a cookie, if you clear your Google cookies often, so you'll need to reset every time. You can do so here:

  https://www.Google.com/preferences

  (On this page, Google refers to a new window.)

  You can set the browser.link.open_newwindow to 1 on the about:config page

  See:

  You can middle - click a bookmark to open this bookmark in a new tab.
  Otherwise, you will need to use an extension to open a default bookmark in a new tab.

  • Open bookmarks in a new tab: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/open-bookmarks-in-new-tab/

• When I click on a bookmark, it will not open in a new tab

  I just got a Macbook Pro and installed Firefox. On a PC, whenever I clicked on a bookmark, it opened in a new tab. The same settings do not work on a Mac. The bookmark opens in the same tab, I was sure. Help please

  Hello

  My understanding is that the default action for the left by clicking on a bookmark should open in the current tab. If you want to open in a new tab, the Middle click button is usually the way to do it.

  You can also install the following extensions that will force all bookmarks to open in a new tab:

  • https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/open-bookmarks-in-new-tab/

  Or this extension which will provide further options for tabs (including you):

• Open the link in new tab option missing when I right click a link in firefox beta firefox 15 and 16.

  I tried IE9 and Chrome and don't have this problem. Here is a picture of what my right click menu looks like http://imgur.com/APbUc

  Yes, you are missing the two options that are usually on top: 'open in a new tab' and 'open in a new window '.

  I guess that it is an extension or a wild theme. You can easily test that by starting Firefox with disabled modules: issues to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode

  You can then disable all extensions and select one by one to figure on which we have the problem. If you don't have time for that and don't care about the extensions, you can just reset Firefox: Firefox Refresh - reset the parameters and modules
