How to select all the text in the address bar when you open a new tab

• Safari ceased to autofocus on the address bar after you open a new tab

  The problem just appeared out of the blue (no prior of note that I can remember happening to OS X, or Safari).

  I know this may seem like a minor issue, but a heavy user of Safari would accept this quirk would be annoying bloody.

  I use the latest public version of El Capitan (10.11.4) on a rMPB and an iMac (the two are sitting in the same local network on both machines, I'm the only user), and the question seems to have emerged more or less simultaneously on both devices.

  No beta updates have been applied, all system updates have been installed via the official Apple App Store.

  • I tried resetting Safari Preferences to open new tabs in a page empty (like some suggested users before), but which resulted in nothing. Also, I tried to disable all extensions and completely ban Internet plug-ins.

  • The problem persists when you connect as a guest and when you restart the system startup.

  This phenomenon has never occurred to me before.

  If anyone has any suggestions on how to solve this problem, I would be very grateful to restore softness to my workflow.

  Thanks in advance.

  -Alex.

  Hello..

  Given that this is happening on two Macs restart your modem router and internet Wi - Fi, restart the Mac and then try Safari.

• No text at all in the address bar when you open a new window

  After update (last 2 I think?) currently 16.0.2 worm, when I open a link in a new window, there is no text in the adressbar. The reload or bookmarking a page like this does not work because the address is empty, I have to open the properties page copy the link, paste it into the address field and go to the page. He can not find any info on how to restore the previous working state. Present address in new tabs, links in the same window, etc.

  It's weird. Couple questions:

  Does it matter how to open new window, for example, if you (1) right click > open link in a new window, (2) shift + click the link, or (3) there is a pop up generated by the page?

  If you right click on the content of the page, the menu has a submenu 'this framework', which would indicate that the page is framed?

  Where this is caused by an add-on, a standard Diagnostics in order to avoid interference by extensions (and some custom settings) is to try the Mode without failure of Firefox.

  First of all, I recommend you backup your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox. (You can copy your profile folder Firefox together somewhere outside the Mozilla folder).

  Then restart Firefox in Mode safe (questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode) of Firefox help

  Help > restart with disabled modules

  In the dialog box, click "start mode safe."

  If the site is working properly, it points to one of your extensions or custom as the problem settings.

  To disable the plugins and extensions, you can try here:

  Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Modules > Plugins category

  Any change?

• How can I get the default value of the cursor in the address bar when I open a new tab, rather than the cursor by default a search engine text box?

  Using Firefox 17.0.1 and then I XP

  Firefox does by default. You probably have an add-on installed that changed the focus of the cursor in the URL bar of the search bar.

• I want the cursor to be in the address bar when you create a new window; It works for new tabs and a new private window, but not in safe mode.

  I tried following the advice offered in the different threads bit I found on this but nothing works out. I want the cursor to be in the address bar when I open a new window or when firefox opens without restoring a previous session. I solved the problem for new tabs via subject: config, but it does not work for the new windows. I tried safe mode and the problem persists. In a new private window, the cursor is in the address bar.

  A new window opens the homepage (default: subject: House) and not the new tab page (default: subject: newtab).

  Some of the built-in pages set the focus to the search bar on the web page, just like the Google site only.

  You can use a bookmark in the bookmarks toolbar that opens the subject: blank page.
  If you hold down the SHIFT key when you click this bookmark, then you open a new widow with this page.
  Otherwise, you need to set the home page to about: blank or on the point: about to have easy access to all the pages.

• Firefox 23.0.1, update is no longer automatically highlights the contents of address bar when I open a new tab.

  The foregoing. When I opened a new tab in the past, before the new update, firefox would automatically highlight the text in the address bar, and I couldn't just start typing here the address of the site that I wanted to. I could quickly get anywhere I want in less than a second. Now, I need to drag, and then click on in the bar every time to address. I installed an add-on called "custom newtab", but it slows down just me lower due to a lag between opening a new tab and the add-on kick and highlighting the contents of address bar.
  What is happening is this:
  Click "new tab".
  New tab opens blank, and the text appears highlighted "google.co.uk" for about a quarter second.
  Loading the Google page and highlight the text becomes not for another second quarter.
  The module comes in and highlights the text "google.co.uk" Meanwhile I have already started typing and end up losing the first part of words, sending me random web pages and research.

  Why this change? Difficulty please!

  Hi ChrisYeomans, a change has been noted in other threads on google.co.uk

  The http URL now automatically redirects to https. Since you did not specify the Protocol in your newtab.url setting, Firefox attempts http and it is immediately redirected to the https domain. You should be able to see this happen unless your computer is much faster than mine.

  Firefox does not handle this redirect elegantly - the URL in the address bar is not enabled unless you click a different tab, and then click back.

  To work around the problem, update your newtab.url to the URL https://www.google.co.uk/ full

• After the last update when you open a new tab, my story is presented as a site sugestion. The problem is that I never checked "remember history" on firefox settings.

• How can I change the display/site when I opened a new tab

  When I open a new tab I have AVG Search. I want to go to google when I open a tab, but I can't figure out how to do this. Your help section doesn't make it easy to find this info.

  "When I opened a new tab I download AVG Search."

  The default action in Firefox is to open a blank tab something installed as an add-on for Firefox changed this action, and until understand you what changed this action and turn off, install another additional probably won't change this new tab of the AVG search page.

• When you open a new tab, placing default text in the address bar, a way to change to the new page (like Google)?

  When I click on the 'plus' for a new tab, which automatically takes me to google.com so beautiful, but the cursor is in the address bar. It seems that the cursor is in the google search box, but it's not.

  When I click on "Home" the default cursor, the search field, which I think is correct. Is there a way to have FF does not by default the address for the input text bar when you open a new tab?

  I doubt it. Google controls their research and their browser and they integrate features. But you can use "Ctrl + K" to place your cursor in the search bar"in your Firefox toolbars. By pressing the key TAB a little is a waste of time since there are a lot of links before you get to the entrance area.

  There could be an extension, if it bothers some, but I don't see a valid compromise to justify the use of an extension of something that seems trivial to me.
