Firefox open multiple tabs of the same site at the same time, why

some site that I visit - when I try to use yahoo or facebook, messaging - multiple tabs of the same pop up and open and bring me to this last open tab - never let me finish what I'm doing. Why is this happening?

I had this problem (when I opened Firefox, Facebook kept several tabs open, even when I was on other sites such as Google).

After you restart Firefox with modules disabled (via the Help menu Firefox), I enabled first of all Plugins, then the Extensions, on-to-one.

The problem is back only when I activated Facebook Toolbar 1.7.3 and disappeared when I disabled it again.

This extension has been updated on 3 August 2011, which is probably when the problem started to appear (worse gradually). The extension tries to integrate some utilities of Facebook with the browser, but it's something that I can easily live. If you are having similar problems, try disabling Facebook Toolbar 1.7.3

  • Firefox open multiple tabs when I click on an email address.

    This is the second time that I checked all this information, I hope it works this time.

    A while back, I changed to Firefox's mailto in Options > Applications > mailto
    After that, when I would click on an e-mail address, Firefox might open new tabs VERY quickly and would not stop until I used the Task Manager to close Firefox.
    I then went back and changed mailto to always ask.
    But the same thing always happens when I click on an e-mail address, Firefox opens tabs very quickly until I close with the Manager tasks.
    I checked the settings in subject: config "Network.protocol - handler.external.mailto" and it is Boolean, default true.
    I don't want a default email program to put, I always ask. Please help with this.
    Thank you.

  • 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.

  • How to prevent a user from opening multiple instances on the same computer?

    On site oldnavyweekly.com , there is a .swf which prevents users to open multiple instances of the site at the same time on the same computer. If you open the site and try to open it again in another window, it will not load. Cannot open the site again until the first window is closed. How did they implement this?

    My analysis, that is NOT:
    1. cookies - the block always takes place if you try to open it in Internet Explorer and also try to open it in Firefox at the same time.
    2 flash Cookies - the block always takes place if I disable flash cookies.
    3 IP Based Block - you are not blocked if you open the site on two separate computers with the same outgoing IP address. From my analysis, their server does not help in the block at all.

    It seems as if their .swf creates a sort of object throughout the global system which can be detected in other instances of the application on the same computer. How did they implement this?

    Thank you!

    use localconnection.  everyone has a localconnection to send and a receiving localconnection.  the lc reception closes the current application.

  • After clicking on the link, Firefox opens 2 tabs double address of this link.

    After clicking on the link, Firefox opens 2 tabs double address of this link.
    Here is the site: http://www.hifishark.com/search?q=sony

    On the right side of the page, when I click on SHOW, 2 tablets of addresses duplicated this link open.
    I've been on this site before and 1 tablet would open normally.

    I think this started to happen when I clicked on 'Restore Default Set' in the window customize the toolbar.

    This does not happen with IE or Chrome browsers.

    The link DISPLAY on top of the site, seems to be the only link that what is happening.
    When I click with the right button on a SHOW and click on "Open link in a new tab" 1 tab opens.

    No change in safe mode.

    This happens to someone else?

    Any ideas appreciated.

    Thank you

  • Why my browser won't allow me to open several tabs for the same website?

    I used to edit photos online and always opened five tabs of the site at a time, in order to expedite my editing. He opens the first tab very well and then when I open a second tab, it appears back on the first tab. I cleared my cache but that does not appear to have contributed. Any ideas?

  • How can I open new tabs at the end on firefox 7?

    Hello

    Just went to 7. However he told me that the plugin "new tabs to end ' will not work with it. Upgrade to the most recent plugin, always tells me it won't work.

    Anyway everyone knows I can get 7 to open new tabs at the end instead of adjacent to the reference tab? I would like to to level but not at the expense of losing the basic functionality.

    Thank you very much

    Evan

    Here is a workaround without need of any add-on:

    -> Open Firefox and type Subject: config in the address bar

    • When you see a warning, click I'll be careful, I promise you

    -> On the filter bar at the top of the topic: config page, type in browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent

    • preference browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent , click Toggle -> it is now set to False

    -> Close Firefox and restart Firefox

    Check and tell if its working.

    About new tabs at the end of 1.0, see this:

  • Select multiple tabs using the keyboard and mouse

    In short, I used to be able to select several byt tabs, one selected, hold down the Ctrl + Shift and then clicking on the last tab, I want to be added to the selection.
    The feature seems to have disappeared, is it possible to get it back?

  • Want Firefox to save your tabs for the next time it starts?

    FF 27.0.1 on Linux Mint XFCE 16, up to date.

    I have my preferences set to "show my home page".

    Whenever I close FF with the X in the upper left corner, he gets up and asks me "do you want Firefox to save your tabs for the next time it starts? I check the box to ask next time and have tried both save and exit and just left. When I open the browser again, it seems to randomly decide to open all the tabs I had last time, or sometimes (rarely) just my home page tabs.

    I don't want to open all the tabs I had open, and I don't want the question whenever I have leave FF. I used FF for years with XP, but I am new to Mint.

    Done setting the prefs 'warnon' on the topic: config false page has an effect any?

    In the previous edition (3.6.12) if I want to close my pc, I had the ability to save my tabs for the next time... I can't find this option in this version.
