New tabs open in a new window or in a pre-existing window that is not currently used.

What happened is that I was running two windows of Firefox at the same time and trying to open a new tab, the new tab opens in the window I was not currently using. Later, I closed a window and trying to open links in a new tab, instead it will open a new window.

I checked the settings of the options that would be opening a new window opens a new tab instead turned on, which is.

My hunch is that one of your extensions is cause that to happen.

    Hi Snyder22,

    I understand how frustrating it can be to see ongoing ads on your computer. I have an article for you with information about the stop of this behavior:

    Stop the cAds in Safari - Apple Support

    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT203987

    The behavior you describe can be better attributed to adware, referred to in this section of the article mentioned above:

    If you could have the adware installed on your Mac.

    If the pop-ups still on your Mac, you might inadvertently downloaded and installed adware (advertising-taking software supported). Some software that you download from some third-party download sites can include the software you want and the adware.

    If you think you have Adware on your Mac, update to the latest version of OS X El Capitan. If your Mac already has the latest version of El Capitan, restart it. El Capitan removes adware only when connecting. If you still see the advertising on your Mac, Contact Apple.

    Be vigilant and thank you for visiting the communities of Apple Support.

    Generally, you use the Add Printer Wizard and see if the update of windows provides a generic driver.

  • Open a URL; constraint window that opens

    Here's my challenge: I want to make a link to another project and this project has been opened in a new window. Is it possible within 3 Captivate that allows me to limit these features in the new window that will open?

    Non-Captivate case, when I want to limit this way, I can integrate these features in the using Dreamweaver launch button when creating my launch button in the launch html. I don't see a similar occasion when setting the properties of the button in Captivate. Any ideas?

    By chance your Captivate button context is set to 'New' (via the small arrow button to the right of the Javascript field)? This would explain what you see.

    The context for the button containing the call to openNewWin() must be set to "Current", because the Javascript code must run in the active window, where standard.js is responsible.

    Otherwise, it works fine when I copy and paste the code above in a freshly published standard.js.

    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?

  • Why the function "move to new window" that I used to use does not work when I right click on the tab more?

    It was when I right click on the tab in Firefox I could use the option 'Move to the new window'. Now when I go down to this option, it seems it will work, but nothing happens. The other day I changed some options in Firefox, but I don't remember changing anything that sounded as if it would have this effect, and now I can't find all the options that seem to fix. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello Beorn, probably the problem is an extension that is not working properly. Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • You can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

    Thank you
