I opened a new tab, but the boxes disappeared and comes with "the address is not valid.
I opened a new tab and it used to show my recent history in about 12 boxes but now I get this:
"The address is not valid
The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded.
Oh dear.
Unfortunetly, you'll have to do a clean reinstall of firefox.

How to open a new tab from the address line?
You will need to hold down the ALT key and press ENTER to open the link in a new tab without the use of an extension cord.
By default the links always open in the same tab.You can search the Addons site for an extension if you want to change this default behavior.

Version 5.0 on a MAC doesn't let me switch between tabs. Can I open a new tab, but when I try to go in a different tab, it shows me just the content of the tab opened most recently. Help!
In addition, pop up blocker works for a while and then stops working. I have to close and restart Firefox to make it work again. Help!
I had the same problem, but with Firefox 4.0. My first thought was last updated to Firefox (after of course restarting FF), but it did not help and I had the same problem.
Among others, I had an extension installed and enabled called tile tabs 4.10 I thought could easily create this problem. I went in my Add-ons Manager and disabled, restarted Firefox and tabs worked properly again. Unfortunately, the extension of the tile tabs is my favorite Firefox Add-on and I use it almost every day to manage my web tasks. I went to the page Add on for tile tabs and saw that there was a notice that version 4.10 did not work properly on Mac OS and install version 4.9 of the extension. I saw that they had a new is not-yet-seen version 4.11 who has tackled the problem of Mac OS, installed, and everything seems to work properly.
I have no idea why all of a sudden I had this problem as I don't had not updated Firefox or the extension of the tile tabs recently. Also, obviously this could not solve your problem, especially if you have the module installed and active. But our problem started at the same time for both of us it seems based on your post time, so its probably not a coincidence.
But its worth a quick glance and you can check other extensions if you don't have the legs of tile that might be the cause of the problem.

If I have a small Firefox page I can not open a NEW page. He let me just open a new tab on the reduced page. I used to be able to open a new page in browser icon on my desktop, but for these last days, it won't let me. It is a desktop computer, running Windows 7. Everything is up-to-date.
Hi Deb, it's hard for me to test it personally because I've pinned the shortcut of Firefox to the taskbar, which changes its behavior, and when I remove it, I don't fit my desktop icon. (?!)
Anyway, as a temporary workaround solution while we sort out this point, you can use the 'Skip' list: right click on the Firefox icon in the task bar and choose 'Open a new fenΩtre' that should certainly generate a separate window and not only a new tab in the existing window. Normally works?
Firefox has a hidden setting that you might try to change to see if it makes a difference. Normally, when you open a link in another program, it opens in a new tab in the last window of Firefox, that you used. Your what's doing? I propose changing the setting so that the link must open in a new window to see if it has an impact on this problem.
(1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.
(2) in the filter box, type or paste link.o and make a pause so that the list is filtered.
(3) double-click the preference browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external and set its value to 2 and click OK.
The possible values for this preference are as follows:
-1 = follow your settings in the Options for new tabs vs new windows (default)
3 = open external links in a new tab in the last active window
2 = open external links in a new window
1 = open external links in the last active tab replaces the current pageThere are a few other similar named preferences, so be sure to change one that has 'external' in the name.
Any difference?

I changed my computer from XP to Windows 7 and migrated my FF browsers. But... now the tabs at the top of the page are all right (they were upper-front left - where I loved her)
The most important is the "open a new tab" + - is on the right. But that is not sensible. Why you put "Open a new tab" on the extreme right of the browser, when you close a tab on the left and you type a new URL in the browser on the left?
How can I put my "open a new tab" immediately to the right of 'Close tab' - as if it was before?
Please advise?
Try clicking on "Restore default settings" in the palette to customize to reset the toolbar customization.
- Firefox '3-bar' menu button > customize
- View > toolbars > customize

The address is not valid problem when opening new tab
opening of firefox (I crash usually close under Task Manager), it reloads all tabs as it should.
But when you open a new tab, I get "the address is not valid.
I tried all the parameters of the start of the blank home page and latest opening option.
I have tried all suggestions in other markets, reset... Subject: config
I wish it had a document giving detailed information for all parameters
When on the topic: config and search newtab, the only user adjustment (not default) is
browser.newtabpage.storageVersion; 1 and I tried 0,1,2,3,4,5 restart no change even between the two.
Have been re-intall, reset, safe mode, nothing works
the tab works normally after the error, which means that I can start typing in the address bar and even complete works of auto... I restarted just fz and he did a 27.0.1 update
that did not fix it either... I'm bored of the default page of fx that has recent photos.

When I click on the sign more to open a new tab. The tab opens with bing pg and I hate bing. How can I stop thiis doesn't happen. I can find nothing to help even had a computer tech friend check.
Looks like your pref browser.newtab.url has been changed.
This extension will reset some prefs to the value default - browser.newtab.url - is covered. See "on this add-on" for more details.
https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/SearchReset/It will run automatically and then disappear.

Everytime I open a new tab, I'm greeted by this page
http://blog.Mozilla.org/UX/files/2012/05/Firefox-beta-13-redesigned-About_Home-Page1.PNG?128c42
Is a small problem for me, because when I want the cursor at the beginning in the adressbar. So, if for example, I opened a new page, I type in imdb.com I receive directly on imdb.
Today, however, with the Home tab firefox screen. I have to do a google search for imdb.
A small problem perhaps, but enough to be annoying.
Is there a way to move the settings or something similar, and keep the cursor in the address bar after you open a new tab?
Hello
If you only want the new tabs do not have home page, you can change it by going in your Subject: config page and replacing "browser.newtab.url" Subject: vacuum. For me at least, if I open a new tab on a white page, the cursor remains the address bar.
In order to change your Firefox Configuration please follow the following steps:
- In the address bar, type Subject: config
and press enter. The subject: config "this might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
- Click on I'll be careful, I promise! to keep the comments: config page.
If you also want to change your home page to a blank page, you can do so in virtue:
- (on Windows) Tools > Options > general, or
- Menu
> Options (preferences on Mac and Linux) > general
Then change the dropdown to "when Firefox starts:"so that it is set to 'Show a blank page'.»
Note that you can continue to do research on the awesome bar and search bar where you want to do a Google search.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

How to open a new tab after the current browsing session.
I used to use the new King of the tab, and when I opened a new tab, it would still open the new tab the very right of my session, the gap and not somewhere randomly in the middle. However, I wanted my restored windows to open where I had closed my session. I've since changed to use the new tab more instead and it worked the same way before, but since I've updated for firefox 26, he seems to have reset this option (and others), it opens in the middle of the session now instead of the end.
I don't know what you mean by the middle of the session.
Do you mean in the middle of the bar tabs in the current window? There is a setting to make it open a link in a new tab adjacent to the page where you clicked on the link, or always at the end of the tab bar. If this is what you mean, here's how you can activate:
(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 the tabs and make a pause so that the list is filtered
(3) double-click the preference browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent from true to false.
But I'm not sure that's what you hear... also, extensions can replace Firefox built-in behaviors with their own settings tab.

In the past I've always had my open pages in a new window and not in a new tab, but it is useless if I can't see the entire page because I only have the address bar, and I can minimize and expand or close the page. There is no scrolling up and down. Now, I have to go to my office and open a new window and paste the address in order to get a working page. I even went up to uninstall and delete the Mozilla in programs, redownload and install, but I have the same problem.

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

For the last week or two, I was not able to open a new tab, looked through many of the solutions here but none seems to have worked, I disabled all add ons in the area add Manager and removed the ASK toolbar and still impossible to open a new tab, it becomes very frustrating!
The only way I can get a new tab is opened click on one somewhere and hope it opens in a new window, can anyone help me solve this problem please?This problem may be caused by an extension that is not working properly.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
- Do not click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.
