How can I stop the passage to a new tab when I highlight something and right click "google search."

So whenever a highlight a Word and right click it to "Google Search for..." she switches on the new tab that opened up. How can I stop it? I tried to go into tools > Options > and disabling the thingie, but which only works for links that I opened in new tabs. Do not search with google.

There is no way to stop it?

Thank you!

Hello, here is how to change this behavior: enter about: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears) and search for the preference named browser.search.context.loadInBackground. Double-click it and change its value to true.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones how can I STOP the storm looking for new e-mail messages?

    I've had the storm for a few days now, and it's my first BB, so maybe it's why it looks like such a simple question.

    Here's the question: I created 3 accounts on the storm, and they work fine. However, when I'm at work or at home in front of a computer (which is most of the time) I am not interested in having the choice of the storm to the top of every email that I receive because I'm reading them on the computer and then I have to delete them on the storm. I would like to be able to check your email on the storm only when I want, but I can't seem to find the setting that will allow for this.

    A little help, please!

    Thanks in advance,

    -M.

    I have a similar situation as you and there is a way to stop the emails any time. Go to the full menu and open the installation folder. Open here the e-mail configuration. Your email accounts will appear in the upper part. Highlight the one you want to temporarily stop and pop the menu and select filters. There are two options. Foward messages on device and do not forward messages. Do not transfer the right choice. They then record at the bottom. You can create a shortcut on the home screen moving the installation of e-mail folder if you can access this option quickly on a daily basis.

    I hope this helps.

  • How can I stop Firefox to crush a new tab on the old?

    I'm trying to find a way for me to get a new tab on the presentation of a new URL. Because I want to pass between the old an new tab in the tab bar. I can't find the solution and therefore Firefox always replaces the previous tab in the tab bar. Can anyone help?

    For links in pages, or bookmarks, in addition to the context menu, you can use these methods to open a link in a new tab:

    • CTRL + click (hold down the CTRL key and click on the link)
    • Middle-click (use the scroll of your mouse wheel click the link)

    If you type a URL in the address bar and you want to open in a new tab, you can:

    • Hold down the ALT key and press enter
    • CTRL + click the 'go' at the end of the address bar

    There are a few modules focus on the tab with a superb range of features, which can be always open in a new tab. I haven't checked this myself, but these are very popular and could be a good place to start your search:

  • How can I stop the ZenMate of opening a tab "Welcome to ZenMate" asking me to activate ZenMate everytime I open my browser?

    Everytime I open Firefox a second tab opens by asking that I activate ZenMate of ZenMate. Given that I have never activated, it does not appear on the list of installed programs in Control Panel. I don't want to install it and do not want to be disturbed by this tab, which is the active tab when Firefox is opened. If I remove whatever it is at the origin tab to open, is there something else that needs to be deleted to remove completely traces of ZenMate?

    Thanks for sharing your browser configuration data. He appears next to your question under Question details > Details of the system more.

    There is an extension of Zenmate, and it is most likely the culprit. You can disable it and perhaps remove page modules. Either:

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

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, you can find it on the right and clear- or perhaps to remove it. If there is no button Delete, there should be an uninstall program in the control panel (or elsewhere).

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled/removed to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    A little luck?

  • How can I stop the Zoo research being my new tab popup?

    I reset my homepage to be Google, when things were diverted by Zoo research. Now I get that as the new tab when I open it and I want it to stop. I'd rather Google.

    If you want to return the default for all Google, this extension is a quick solution: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

    However, where you need it, here is the way to 'practice' more than change your the new tab page.

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

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference browser.newtab.url and enter your favorite page:

    • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
    • Blank tab = > subject: empty
    • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
    • Any other page = > full URL of the page

    Press Ctrl + t to open a new tab and check that it worked. Fixed?

    Two traps:

    • If Firefox ignores the setting, one of your extensions may be substitution of her. You can consult, disable and/or remove extensions on page modules. Either:

      • CTRL + SHIFT + a > click Extensions in the left column
      • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons > click Extensions in the left column
    • If the amendment works but at the next startup is back for the zoo, you could have a user.js file in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). This article describes how to track down and delete the file: How to fix preferences that will not save.
