I can't open links in a new tab after the last update
On some Web sites where links automatically open in a new tab, such as Gmail, etc, the tabs are empty and they all have this strange in the field address:
jar:file:///C:/program%20Files/Mozilla%20firefox/Omni.ja!/chrome/browser/content/browser/newtab/newTab.XUL
On Gmail, not a single link to work properly, all the links of the black bar, (Documents, calendar etc.) and links in emails, they are always open like that. It has never happened in previous versions of Firefox.
I'll be grateful for any help...
P.S. I did not installed Ask.com toolbar and never had...

I can't open some links in a new tab.
When I right click on the menu displays the "open in a new tab" function but when I click on it nothing happens.
Some links open in a new tab when I click on it directly, and I can open images in Google image in a new tab, but most of the time that it does not.
I already disabled modules and is currently in safe mode, but it's always the same.
In addition, nothing happens when I enter a search in the bar of Firefox search and hits ENTER. I can't even change the search engine to this topic.

I was able to do so until the last update... I spent through the process several times since, but without success... including adding the complete URL, etc.. The only suggestion so far is that 1 of my modules could be the cause, but I have still the same as before (they are edge Adblock, S3. Google Translator and yet another Smooth Scrolling)... it's frustrating!... and I'd love some help please... Thank you.
Hi, for reasons of security, 41 of Firefox, you must use an add-on like 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.
Note, 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.

'open with' access lost Windows Apps after the last update of Mac OS
It seems that the last Mac OS update has broken something with VMWare Fusion. Before I could right-click on a file in the Finder and the menu 'Open with' include all appropriate applications that have been installed in my different Windows VMs. Now, the menu is empty and I have to run the application in Windows and open the file of the application. As you can imagine that it's boring and tedious.
Has anyone else experienced this problem or does anyone have a solution?
Thanks in advance.
Carl
Sorry,
If this is the case, you can repopulate windows applications on your Mac in two ways app folder as far as I know.
(1) via the mode of the unit: VMware KB: applications Windows Add to Applications folder on your Mac using VMware Fusion
2) from the Virtual Machine settings > default Application
(a) re - enable (disable and enable) Windows applications run the Mac application folder

Windows Update - Outlook Express will not download new email after the last update
After you have installed the latest update of Windows XP files (KB972270; KB977840; KB955759; KB890830) and my OUtlook Express will not download my new messages. Error message occurs sating that a file is possibly corrupted and use Scandisk to repair. This has happened on my computer and my wife using the same basic configuration. Could not resolve the problem before doing a system restore to a previous Restore Point before the update of Windows. So my Windows Updater is no longer needed.

It is possible that you have a problem with some Add on Firefox which is an obstacle to the normal behavior of your Firefox. Have you tried to disable all add-ons (just to see) to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you must make sure that it is not caused by one (or more) of your installed modules, whether an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do this easily and cleanly, start Firefox in safe mode (remember to select disable all add-ons when you start safe mode). If the problem goes away, you know that it's an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode and allow them one by one until you find the source of the problem. See this article for more information on troubleshooting extensions and themes and this one for plugins.
If you need help with one of your modules, you will need to contact the author.
If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please be afraid not to follow my instructions to the line, as everything can be easily undone.

"Open link in a new tab - switch to him immediately" cannot be disabled
When I left click on a link, FF 14.01 will switch to the new tab immediately. When I right click and "Open link in a new tab" to say, FF will immediately switch. I've done all the obvious things in tools/options and also restore the default FF State and turned off all the modules and extensions. Before I do a complete uninstall/reinstall to see if it works, any other ideas?
Is there an entry in the register of windows 7 that would force FF to always toggle the tab new left click on a link? I ask this because I suspect that the problem might be related to malware. The system is finished clean now, if this isn't the problem.Maybe it's a Yahoo site setting.
Google has something similar in Google search that you open through the gear icon on the Google results page.

Change the default color of Firefox opening links in a new tab
I use stylish addon for Firefox with a dark default css. I also changed the default window colors in the Windows registry. This changed the subject: white page to a dark color. But when I open a link in a new tab before the page is loaded, Firefox displays a blank page with a white background. I wonder how to change the white color to another.

Opening links in a new tab will also load the link on the problem of temporamental currnt tab that comes and goes. Sometimes using links from google as well. Never had this problem before. Also the SafeSearch feature on google has itself locked on strict, not too much problem, but has happened at the same time my links and tabs not working like I want.
Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

When I double click the bookmark (star) button a window still down so I can change the bookmark or place it in the folder I want. Now, after the last update of FF13 (June 2012), I can click once and the page is a bookmark in the "home" folder, but when I double click nothing happens. (1) I restarted FF, did not help 2) I rebooted the computer, did not help.
You just click on the star once if the star is high already turned on to indicate that a site is bookmarked. Normally, you would click once to bookmark the current site, then click once, if you want to change the new bookmark. If you double-click and you open and close the pop-up edition.
After you enable hardware acceleration can cause problem with edit op - up doesn't work does not correctly, so in case of problems, you can disable hardware acceleration.

After the last update on Wnidows 7 Firefox opens just a blank screen (black).
After the last update Firefox on a machine Wnidows 7, Firefox opens just a blank screen (black). It worked fine until the latest update. It does not open in "safe" mode I tried several facilities clean and using various other compatibility settings. I also tried various changes of display. Closing X is still under the black forest as I can by conjecture activate this.
Get a black screen after updating to Firefox 33 can be caused by a problem with hardware acceleration in Firefox.
You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver.
Try to start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the shift/Options key.
Disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Tools > Options > advanced > General > Browsing: "use hardware acceleration when available.
You will need to close and restart Firefox after enabling/disabling this setting.
