Force new tab preference is not preventing some links to open windows?

• When I "Open link in a new tab" it does not load the link, I have to stop and refresh the tab to load the linked page

  The title of the question pretty much explains the problem.

  EDIT: "Open Link in New Window" works very well, as by clicking on a link or bookmark to switch from one tab to the linked page.

  "Reload Tab" does nothing. The page loads only when I stop and reload.

  Sorry to bother you, but I think I just solved the problem.

  In the last three days I closed & restarted Firefox several times and stop & restarted my computer twice without solving the problem, but I just started, open Firefox in mode without failure, then closed & restarted Firefox and "link in new window open" seems now function normally.

  Now I feel like a fool for not trying that before asking the question.

• Why my new tab key does not work?

  When I click on the sign more to get a new tab, it does not so I have to open a new window in mozilla if I want to look at several Web sites at the same time. I restarted my computer several times and it did not help. I would be grateful of any advice that anyone has, and I prefer to work with a browser open and have access to several tabs. Also, if I click a link on a Web site that will open a new tab, but I can't open a by clicking the sign more or new tab by clicking on the menu drop down.

  Ask Toolbar can cause this problem. Uninstall it.

• Hello. I installed the latest update of Firefox and when I start a new tab page displays not now my entry from google line.please help.tks

  Hello. I installed the latest update of Firefox and when I start a new tab page displays not now my google input line. I use Windows 10. Until the recent update (v4.1.01) each time I started a new tab the new page would show the google search entry line which is my default. Can help you to restore this feature? TKS

  Hi, 41 of Firefox, you must use the add-on tab override (browser.newtab.url replacement), to make changes to the page tab.

  Once installed, open the Add-ons (Ctrl + Shift + A) Manager > Extensions, and then look for the new tab override and click Options to set your preference.

  Notice, if you want only the new tab to be the same as your home page, you can use the Add on new tab homepage instead.

  You will then need to restart Firefox for all changes to take effect.

  If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

• New tab page is not refreshed when I delete a site

  I have two problems with the new tab page:

  1. The new tab page will not refresh when I delete a site. I can click on the [X] button to delete a site, but nothing seems to happen. The site remains on the new tab page until I have refresh or reload the page.
  2. Firefox restores all the sites that I delete the new tab page, the next time that I restart Firefox.

  Found the problem:

  DOM. Storage.Enabled apparently affects the new tab behavior (bozhe me!)

  I had mine set to false; Apparently, it breaks the new tab page. Changing to true restored expected behavior.

  Would be nice if the entries in About: Config to http://kb.mozillazine.org/ included a description interconnected how change these options will affect/guy features in Firefox. (And while I'm wishing I join $ 1 million, a pony, and peace in the world). Is life...

  Thanks for your help crazyskeggy and Tylerdowner

• The search engine used to open the selections in a new tab. Is not doing that. How can I get that back?

  I prefer Yahoo search. In previous versions of Firefox, the search engine could pull the top of the list of possible sites. By clicking on the link would open this site in a new page. He is not doing that. There is no that opens the link forcing me to constantly go back to the place just to be able to close the new tab if it's not what I'm looking for. How can I get the old way to work again?

• Than return the behavior of Firefox to focus on a new tab empty? Not the same as opening a link in a new tab.

  In previous versions of Firefox, when I open a new empty tab by CTRL-T or by clicking on the 'more' button on the tab bar, Firefox would focus on the new tab. This is not the case with Firefox 11, but I liked this behavior and want to get it back.

  It seems to be different from opening a link in a new tab, which, at least for me, opened without getting the focus (I deselected the option to immediately go to the preferences of some time back, but the new tab behavior remained). I searched through the preferences and have played with the options in the tab, but empty came. Can someone point me in the right direction?

  Thank you!

  As far as I can tell, it is still the default behavior and is not affected by preferences. Is one of your extensions may cause this problem. Go to Firefox > customize > addons and try to disable tabs in impact or the behavior tab.

• New tab reset does not

  I have a hijacking my new tab search engine and tried to go in the About: config, but every time I try and change the browser.newtab.url that will not change. Can someone help me solve this problem, I suspect that it is malware.

  There are two ways to interpret your description:

  • you right-click > reset but instead of changing about: newtab (default setting), it remains the value to something
  • the preference is defined: newtab but Firefox shows a different page

  Assuming that this is the second case, you can have an unwanted extension that is the substitution of your new tab page. Try this:

  Disable all non-essential or unrecognized extensions on page modules. Either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > Add ons

  In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off.

  Typically, 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.

  That help return you to the page of the new normal tab?

  P.S., Chrome also has a page of extensions, someone in this menu of '3 '.
