Firefox support only empty new tabs for all web pages, with the blank url bar.
After an automatic minor update (16.0.1-> 16.0.2), firefox is now completely unusable.
Whenever I try to load a page, it shows only a blank tab labeled 'new tab '.
The url bar of this page will be empty if I try to open a link or bookmakrk.
The url bar of this page will be exactly what I typed if I manually typed a url.
Right click on the white pages does nothing: no context menu.
"Troubleshooting information" page DID load correctly however; It is the only page I was able to display at all so far.
Restart of firefox has not fixed the problem.
Restart of firefox in SafeMode with addons disabled has NOT set the question - so please don't waste time trying to tell me that it's addons.
Change the settings of the network proxy has not fixed the problem.
There is no connection problem: IE can load pages very well from the same computer.
I love firefox mah... but now it's dead... Please help!
Update: resolved:
Firefox works correctly after you restart the entire computer.
It is bad form to require restarting the computer for minor updates to browser... and even the poorest not to say so when you do.
(Some of us run the servers in the background that should not be broken).

When the page opens, the scroll bar appears only if I move to bottom of page with the mouse
It started last week with Firefox 5 and continues with the upgrade to Firefox 6. Each new page that opens in Firefox does not display a scroll bar. By entering the lower right of the page with the mouse and move the mouse to the right, the scroll bar appears and is usable. This "correction" is required on each new page.
This condition looks similar to the condition met when Firefox 5 was introduced. The fix was to open appearances in tools then choose the default setting. This patch doesn't work anymore.

How can I configure firefox to open a new tab for each new search?
Each search I've done since the last update, Firefox open the new in the old tab. I have already fixed the Boolean value in browser.search.openintab true in everything: config, but it works only with google search (and not, for example with youtube search).
This combination works for me:
- Browser.Search.openintab = true
- YouTube search plugin installed from YouTube (when green + appeared on the magnifying glass icon on the search bar)
- by clicking the "punctual".
- make YouTube the default search engine
How about other search plugins: those who do not like Google or YouTube?
I noticed that you have several extensions. Could one of these be alter the functioning of the search bar? You could test mode without failure of Firefox. It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.
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
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still works
After stops in Firefox, a small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not reset).
Any difference?

After firefox updated all addons some of them has opened a new tab after restart. This tab has reported that each addon has been updated.
But these tabs keep opening at startup, hiding my homepage and gets boring.I solved many of them downgrading to an older version, but I can't trouble the Tabmix more tab than guard leader here:
http://tmp.garyr.NET/version_update2.htm?version=0.4.1.1pre.130722a
Even without this downgrade, which in fact lead to another page that tells a different version (the one I had demoted to)EDIT. I wiped out the config to restore it piece by piece.
Everything is now resolved. -

When I load firefox it opens a new tab then my home page. How can I stop the new tab
I just need firefox to open my home page, not to open a new tab
You can check the target line in the shortcut to the Firefox desktop (right click: properties) to make sure that nothing is added after the path to the Firefox program.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.
- Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

I'm a Firefox user for a long time. Today I just read on FIDO U2f security keys, a USB dongle that supports 2-factor authentication. It is supported by Chrome, but apparently no other browser. Looks promising, and I wonder if there is any project to provide Firefox support for these keys.

Firefox will not save my passwords for any site. I checked the box 'Save password'. I tried several times over several days.
Any suggestions?
Under the Privacy tab, check box "remember history". My sister had the same problem, and this box is unchecked in its version. Please try it out.

Usually, this happens whenever I do a right-click for a new tab or click on a link. Unwanted tab always has the URL http://xn--3. 1-fua0do447bmv6g/#%C5%93%C3%8e%06%E2%80%99Ucr%C2%B7%C3%80 and I'm constantly having to close these tabs.

After that the last version of Firefox all amplified, I used the add-on of NoSquint (60%), which makes web pages now as they did before. However, if the two albums at the top of the screen are of normal size, the lower ones are too big. The bar that contains the URL on the left and a Google search on the right space, for example, to view only the first two letters of a URL (after the / /).
How can I make these bars look the way they used to? Thank you.
To adjust the font size for the user interface, you can use the extension of theme font & size changer .
This solve your problems? Please report to us!
Thank you.

Hi KCarl, you'll still need to zoom out to see the nine tabs.
If you do not want to zoom out whenever you are on the new tab page, install the Stylish extension:
And then install the style of the user:

Tab opens a web page hijacked, the main window opens successfully
I had problems with my tabs. Initially, this site has taken over my home page: www.delta-homes.com/newtab/?type=nt & ts = 1416560107 & from = wpm11213 & uid = ST500DM002-1BD142_Z6E56129XXXXZ6E56129.
I went through all the steps to remove it and it no longer appears when I open a window. But when I open a new tab, it is always there. When I open the properties of the target is defined as. "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
Can offer you any other advice.
Thank you very much

Hello
Double check this article to make sure that you have removed completely:
You can reset your newtab page by:
- In the address bar, type Subject: config and press enter. The subject: config "this might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
- Click on I'll be careful, I promise! to keep the comments: config page.
- Search browser.newtab.url, right-click on the line and select 'Reset' or 'Edit' (default is on: newtab but you can change it to what you want)
Alternatively, you can install the extension, Reset search tool. This extension resets your homepage, search bar and page of the tab back to the default settings and then to uninstall.
