Windows illegal?
A couple of years, I bought this pc computer TIME store return, old beind it ran slow, so I asked one of my friend wheater that he knows sombody who can make it faster, and his answer was Yes that I gave my pc to sort. but when he gave me my pc back the problem was still there and I had another problem. everytime I open my pc, something like "windows geniune advantage" appears. What should do? I have the bill and windows product key.
Maybe they used another product key or Windows XP edition when reinstalling.
Use the tool compares the keys: http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/selfhelp/CompareKeys.aspx?displaylang=en
Check the product key you have if it matches what they used to install the software on your computer.
If they match, validate Windows: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/help/genuine/what-is-validation
If product keys do not match, but the edition currently installed corresponds to your product key (for example, what is installed is Windows XP Professional and your product key is for Windows XP Professional; or the PK that is installed is the publishing house, Home Edition), using the product key update tool : http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=204141
If the edition and the product key do not match, the correct edition must be reinstalled using your product key.
I hope this helps.

When I click a link on a Web page or other software, I want to open in a window, completely new.
You can hold the SHIFT key and click the left button of the mouse a link to open this link in a new window.
The setting in tools > Options > tabs is only for links that specify a window target and you can hijack such a link in a new tab instead.

Really stupid question, I just have not found an answer, sorry!
I'm developing mobileversions of sites that need to look good and run on Blackberry. Unfortunately I don't own a Blackberry, so I use Adobe Device Central. I am getting an error on each target = "_blank" link which "Open a HTML link in a new window is not taken in charge." and the new page does not load.
I think Device Central is a bit confused and even if not, that disregarded supported HTML is more likely to be ignored only to stop a page from loading. So, in short, does Blackberry support target = _blank HTML syntax? If not, this actually makes links does not work?
Thank you!
I strongly suggest to download Simulator and try things so that you can judge for yourself.
Try this site on a sim torch 6.0 reveals target = _blank works fine:

When I click on a link, firefox opens in a new window. It is used to open it in a new tab instead which is what I prefer. I've never had this problem until last night, so I have no idea what might have started it. I tried the suggestion to put firefox in safe mode and still the same problem. I have firefox 15.0.1 on windows 7.
What security (firewall, antivirus) software do you have?
Try to start the computer in safe mode Windows with network support (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test to see if it works.
Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.
See "create a profile":
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/Profile-Manager-create-and-remove-Firefox-profiles
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

who was the last version to allow the opening links in a new window by default?
Used to have the opportunity to set as default, when I clicked on a link, it would always open in a new window. I want to revert to this version... If it is supported or not! I HATE THE TABS!
You can disable tabbed browsing in the options:
Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Options > tabs
Uncheck the boxes of the first and the fourth. This will restore the default behavior for links, which is:
- If a 'target' is defined in the link, or launch a new window or replace the contents of the existing window with the same target.
- If a script is triggered when you click on the link, leave the script to open a new window.
- Otherwise, follow the link in the same window.

No matter where I right click on a webpage displayed (NOT the bar menu at the top of the screen), in computer text highlighted, a white spot in a Web page, or whatever it is, the shortcut menu for a hyperlink appears upward (with options to open it in a new tab, window or private (, bookmarking), and none of these options actually do anything, even if it is a hyperlink, I'm clicking. With the help of shortcuts like Ctrl + click on work very well. I have not recently installed plug-ins, and it only started a few hours ago. Wat do I do?
Try disabling Firebug and see how it is.

The only method I found to open a new tab is to copy the URL, press Ctrl + T, and then paste the URL and go.
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 you click on a thumbnail image that is supposed to open the same image in a pop-up window. (that is a larger version of the same image). Firefox appears in the popup box 'not found '.
The URL requested / undefined is not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 not found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument directive to manage demand. However, this does not work on other browsers? Any idea why this happens? Example http://motorpride.co.za/inventory.html. Click on any image of the car in the listIt is an error in the source of the page (href instead of the src of an image).
This should be onclick = "window.open (this.src,, 'height = 300, width = 400, left = 200, high = 200'); return false;" »
Just click with the right button on the image and middle - click on the entry to see the picture to see this image in a new tab

The Office has a Windows XP Home Edition and the laptop has Windows 7 Home.
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.

When I create a link in WordPress it will not open the link in a new window
Hello
I've been creating websites in WordPress for a few years and still today, I find that when I create a link to open it in a new window using Firefox as browser the link just opens again the same pageThis is the code: -.
"< a title ="learn more"href ="http://socialmediatrainingjob.info/mainsq"target ="_blank"> here < /a > to find out""< a title ="more"href ="http://socialmediatrainingjob.info/mainsq"> fred."
The 'fred' link will go on the site that you want, but "find it out here" is going nowhere.
