• The last version doesnot open new tab with google even after editing about: config

  Until two days ago, that the new tab opened with Google.com. After the introduction of tiles in a new tab where the tiles with suggested sites are displayed, even after editing with subject: config, there is no change. Set in a new tab button suggested only the sites or blank page that crushes everything: config it seems

  Firefox has tiles on the new tab from Firefox 13 page. But something has just changed: 41 Firefox no longer use the browser.newtab.url parameter in topic: config because he was constantly attacked by malware. From 41 of Firefox, you need an add-on to change the new tab page.

  Here are a few options (I'm learning more all the time):

  • If you are already using the "Restorer of classic theme" or "Tab Mix Plus" extension: There is an option somewhere (!) in his dialogues of the parameters to select another page in the new tab.
  • If you want to use your new tab homepage: Try https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/
  • If you want to set another page or a completely blank page: Try https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-override/
  • If you want the cursor to move in a search box in the page: Try https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/custom-new-tab/

  Use only one of these methods at the same time, otherwise there may be conflicts and dysfunctions.

  Setting up substitute new tab and new tab custom

  After installing one of these extensions, you must use the Options page to set the new desired tab page (instead of use subject: config).

  Open the page modules using either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a (Mac: Cmd + shift + a)
  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

  In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the side right, find the new tab replace or custom new tab and click on the Options button. (See first screenshot attached).

  New tab Override

  Depending on the size of your screen, you may need to scroll down to enter the address in the form. (See second screenshot attached). For example:

  • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
  • Blank tab = > subject: empty
  • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
  • Any other page = > full URL of the page

  Then tab or click this form field and you can test using Ctrl + t.

  Custom new tab

  It is easy to enter your favourite homepage address. If you check either of the boxes, the expansion will set the focus in the page as well, for example, the cursor will be in the Google search box. (See third screenshot attached). I had to leave Firefox and start it up again before new custom tab started working, but this may have been due to tests so many extensions back to back.

  Sometimes the home page changes are caused by a new extension or external software change your Firefox settings. These can sneak in when you install other software, as many free programs include a set of less useful things.

  Could check you your extensions for the actions essential or unrecognized? Open the page modules using either:

  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

  In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off. Or if it's obviously nonsense, delete.

• open new tabs in firefox on Ubuntu 12.04 12.0

  Open new tabs randomly during firefox sessions. By example, if I leave firefox running all night, the morning there will be 4-6, open new tabs, even if the computer was intact all the time. Don't open new tabs to the Web sites; they just empty.

  It always happens with a new and clean profile?

  You can use this profile only during the night.

• I'm having a problem when I open a new tab with multiple images. If there is more than five or six images they all will not be open.

  I opened emails with many images. New version is having a problem opening a tab with images more than maybe 6 or 7. Of older versions sometimes had the same problem, but the images unopened is appeared on the page as a small box empty you can try to reload. No more. Now you must reload the tab all. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't.

  You seem to be using a beta version. Maybe go back to a regular version and wait for V. 30 becoming a regular version, and maybe some bug.

• Every time Firefox opens, I get new tab, with my desired as a tab page I click on get to. How to get back to how it was in previous versions?

  After updating to the latest version of Firefox, when it opens I get two tabs, and one that appears on my screen is new tab with my homepage on the other, which requires that I click on it to go. Also, when I click on a link, the same thing happens, a new tab page comes up, with what I clicked on as another tab I have to click to get to. It's actually quite boring and inconvenient. How to get back to the way it was, so that when I run Firefox it opens on my homepage, and when a new page opens, I see the content of the link I clicked on? This new and improved IMO is really new and worse.

  A further extension could have snuck in. These can be bundled with other software you may have installed recently.

  Try turning off all non-essential or unrecognized extensions on page modules. Either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > Add ons

  In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off. (Or so completely junk, delete).

  Typically, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

  That get rid of the extra tab?

  Note: I also suggest to visit the Control Panel, uninstall a program and by clicking on the column heading "installed on". This should bring the most recent additions at the top and group by install date so that you can examine the software may have unexpected how have been installed.

  Uninstall the toolbar Ask and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask and Firefox toolbar that prevents the opening of new tabs.

  There are a few places to check for the Ask toolbar:

  • Check the control panel Windows for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
  • Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  You know that the extension is involved?

  You shouldn't have any problem starting Firefox in Mode safe mode if the problem is really due to an extension. Take a look at this support article to start Firefox in Mode safe or to detect bad extension.

  Maybe the defined extension new tab URL with the URL target when Firefox starts, and once the first new tab is opened, the extension put once again the new URL of the tab with the default this time.

• Tools, options will fail. Opens a tab with invalid URL message. URL is "on preferences.

  OPTIONS MENU, TOOLS, open a new tab with the message "the address is not valid. The URL is "aboutpreferences". I tried to start Firefox in Mode safe mode with the same result. I also used the 'Refresh Firefox' button. No change. Simply can't access my preferences anyway. I think it's a relatively new problem, but cannot say with certainty when the latter worked properly, but it worked in the past.

  38 of Firefox has grown from a pop-up dialog box Options for a page of 'in the tab' options. Some users find that it does not work for them, but so far we have not determined the motive. Because you did a refresh, which would eliminate most of the possible causes. You can also test mode without failure of Firefox.

  Never mind, you've already tried this step It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

  Does not work if Firefox: Hold down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox.

  If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
  • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

  and OK reboot.

  Two scenarios: A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

  Any improvement?

  If it simply does not work, there is a preference to return to the old style dialogueOptions box:

  (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press enter/return. Click on the button promising to be careful.

  (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste pref and make a pause so that the list is filtered

  (3) double-click the preference browser.preferences.inContent to true to false

  Note: I don't know if that will ever be in Firefox or is a transitional device. As you have probably noticed, the long-term trend is to remove things that appear.
