How to open a new window (cmd + N) on the current page (url) NOT my homepage?
Before I updated to firefox 28, I was able to hit cmd + N and it will open a new window with the exact same Web page I was on. Now, he opens a new window with my home page. I guess I got an add-on or extension, but I'm desperate to be able to do it again. Ideas?

Look at the taskbar, the black band at the bottom of the screen. All the windows that you have opened so far are represented by a rectangular box (it's called thumbnail). Click on one of them, and it will appear on the screen.

I used to be able to open a new window (Ctrl + N) and it would 'only' to open a new window, which is what I wanted.
Now, when I open a new window, it opens a new window, but it does so with a new tab as well.
So if I type "Ctrl + N" for example, a new window AND a new tab when open. I close the tab every time now, because I wanted to only the new window.
Help, please.

How to open a new window with a blank page?
More specifically, when I open a new window (CTRL-N), I want a new browser with a blank window and the cursor in the address bar (so I can just start to type the new URL - like Firefox 3.0.3 allowed me to do). In 3.0.3 I was able to set my 'homepage' is empty. I'm more than happy to edit about: config, but impossible to find the right element to change. Notice, if I edit browser.startup.homepage and clear this field, Firefox it set (obnoxiously) back to about: House. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
RESOLVED (found a workaround at least). If I change everything: browser.startup.homepage config and change to about: empty, so I can leave "tools-> options-> general tab - > start-> start Firefox ' value ' show my windows and tabs from last time" and a new window (CTRL-N) will result in a new blank window with my cursor in the field (ready to type a URL) location. Until now, it was my only real concern after the upgrade to 3.03 - very satisfied 10.0.2 so far, thank you Mozilla!

Other posters have a difficult time distinguishing tabs and Windows, it seems. With a lot of posters here the two terms are used incorrectly and indifferently, as is the desktop and the window of Firefox, but my understanding is that a lot of this "bad language" is taught in schools.
This is the only thing that I could find quickly for you:
- http://www.Pikey.me.UK/Mozilla/?addon=clone-window
- Compatibility information Firefox 5/6: http://www.pikey.me.uk/mozilla/
Comments on the first link (read carefully). May not work, unless this should be 'current tab's addressare'and it seems he can "take back" the new tabs in the window/new selections (i.e., no new windows/tab blank):
- Clone the address of the active tab and the story in a new window when the new command window is used (and possibly in a new tab when ordering new tab is used). {It is emphasis added}

How to open a new window that has a single tab and my home page?
Ago that I had trouble with my internet access so finally deleted Firefox and reloaded it from scratch. Since then, if I open a new window, I get a lot of tabs open. They seem to be the tabs that I had opened the first time I tried to open a new window instead of the tabs, I have now opened. This means that a new window is slow (about 14 tabs open) and does not even include the tabs that I want to use.
Say you that, haven't you. Maybe this thread will help? It refers at the start, but maybe that session restore got so messed up that until he restores to each new window?

How to open a new window when you open a file from a slide on Captivate 9
I am almost at the end of my first e-learning project on Captivate 9 and I have a small question: when I open a PDF file to a slide via a hyperlink or a button (via an ' action'), it's just switching page in the web browser instead of opening a new window.
So I need to press return to return to the project, but it is up to the start screen.
Is it possible to open a second window instead of 'project closing' when opening a file?
Thanks in advance for your help.
You must select 'new' in the dropdown menu next to the link entry field.

I don't know if they are technically pop-up windows (for example, if you perform a search on kayak.com, it will automatically open a new window of priceline.com with the search results), but that happens with Blocker on or off. Other examples are a little info to a financial site window or .edu, which opens a session is about to expire, or answer a FAQ (with the exception of the priceline example, these windows have an address bar or view a URL). In any case, once these windows are closed, if I try to open a new window, it will automatically load the content of this "pop-up". Whenever he does, I'm unable to type in the address bar or open a new tab in this window.
How can I fix it? What I want is to open a new window which is empty, not load the previous contents.
No, I just realized that I was holding Command-Shift-N rather than command-N
