• Why FireFox open as a very small box in the top corner of the l/h page and I have to resize each time

  This has only started happening since I upgraded to firefox 8

  Use Restore or expand in the context menu of the icon in the taskbar to set the focus to the Firefox application if you do not see it.
  
  Open the system menu via Alt + space and see if you can resize the window.
  
  If it works then close Firefox (file > exit/Quit) to save the setting.

• If I have a small Firefox page I can not open a NEW page. He let me just open a new tab on the reduced page

  If I have a small Firefox page I can not open a NEW page. He let me just open a new tab on the reduced page. I used to be able to open a new page in browser icon on my desktop, but for these last days, it won't let me. It is a desktop computer, running Windows 7. Everything is up-to-date.

  Hi Deb, it's hard for me to test it personally because I've pinned the shortcut of Firefox to the taskbar, which changes its behavior, and when I remove it, I don't fit my desktop icon. (?!)

  Anyway, as a temporary workaround solution while we sort out this point, you can use the 'Skip' list: right click on the Firefox icon in the task bar and choose 'Open a new fenΩtre' that should certainly generate a separate window and not only a new tab in the existing window. Normally works?

  Firefox has a hidden setting that you might try to change to see if it makes a difference. Normally, when you open a link in another program, it opens in a new tab in the last window of Firefox, that you used. Your what's doing? I propose changing the setting so that the link must open in a new window to see if it has an impact on this problem.

  (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

  (2) in the filter box, type or paste link.o and make a pause so that the list is filtered.

  (3) double-click the preference browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external and set its value to 2 and click OK.

  The possible values for this preference are as follows:

  -1 = follow your settings in the Options for new tabs vs new windows (default)
  3 = open external links in a new tab in the last active window
  2 = open external links in a new window
  1 = open external links in the last active tab replaces the current page

  There are a few other similar named preferences, so be sure to change one that has 'external' in the name.

  Any difference?

  When I go to internet banking as a clydesdale, it opens a new page to connect, but a few days ago it stopped working with the new update. Now when I click on connect, it says "FOUND the document pushed here." and clicking here opens another page of connection, but after being entered the details the page doesn't load. the same thing happens on other sites, on the other, when I click to read the messages page does nothing, and if I click to open in a new tab the same page is displayed instead.

  Theres been other people having this problem too...

  Yes, for example, that this person- https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1078226 -, but they did not post cost around if any suggestion made a difference, I appreciate your following upward.

  Here are two other things to check:

  (1) connection settings - have they been customized?

  "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced

  Click the mini network, and then click the settings button

  The default value of 'Use system proxy settings' should follow your 'LAN' setting, as well as IE, but you can also try 'No proxy' to see if that makes a difference.

  (2) extensions - test Firefox to turn off Safe Mode

  Firefox Safe mode is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

  Does not work if Firefox: Hold down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox.

  If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
  • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

  and OK reboot.

  Two scenarios: A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

  Any improvement?

• Is there a way to disable the function where firefox opens a new tab when you scroll a click in the header bar?

  Is there a way to disable the function where firefox opens a new tab when you scroll a click in the header bar? This feature in conflict with my program of multiple monitors (display fusion) since this program allows you to change your current active window the monitor 1 monitor 2 and vice versa BY clicking the header of BAR SCROLLING (or whatever you call the highest part of your window). With firefox, I can't easily change my active window between monitors because instead, it opens a new tab.

  If the window is maximized, you can then switch this pref to disable the display of the tabs in the title bar:

  • browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar = false

  You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
  You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

  A new window opens by default with the homepage.

  See:

  • https://support.Mozilla.com/kb/how+to+set+the+home+page

  Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

• I want my home page to open every time I open a new tab. Where is the setting for that?

  When I open a new tab, it is always empty. I want it opens automatically to my homepage everytime I open a new tab.
  I thought I found a framework for this, but I can't find it now.

  There is no setting for this, but you can do this by using an add-on such as:

  • NewTabURL - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl
  • New tab Homepage - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage

  Another way to open the home page in a new tab is in the Middle, click the home button in the navigation toolbar.

• I can't stop firefox opening a new tab when I type a URL in the address bar.

  I have the ability to open windows into tabs and I love it. My problem is when I type a URL in the address bar, rather than load him on this page, it opens a new page. No matter what type of page I made this. When I CTRL + T to open a TAB, and then type in the address bar and it opens a new tab the TAB Leaving previous, I opened intact. I would like to just so that it loads the page on that I entered.

  You have this problem when running in Firefox SafeMode?
  A troubleshooting mode.
  
  You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode 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.
  
  To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox to open it again.
