• When I have 4 or 5 tabs open, by selecting one of them often force this tab to open in a new window and close the original window

  FF 32.0.1. Move between the tabs that are already open, clicking on which I opened before forced to close and open in a new window, which is a real pain. It seems to happen when I have 4 or 5 tabs open, rather than 2 or 3.

  Only, this happened last week, once reinstalled a clean Windows.

  I searched and found a lot of people have problems with the new windows that open when they want just a new tab, but this seems to be on the opening of the fresh rather than return to already open tabs, so I can't find the same problem I describe.

  This can happen if you drag a tab slightly downwards in the browser window by clicking.

  Firefox has a feature called tabs
  You can detach a tab in the current window and open in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window.
  You can also do this via the context menu of a tab: switch to the new window
  You can drag the tab to the tab bar in the original window to cancel this detachment.

• Some Images open in a new window or tab are backwards or rotated 90 degrees,

  Some Images open in a new window or tab are backwards or rotates 90 degrees, but they appear in the correct position when you use Internet EXPLORER.

  I don't even know if it's a browser or a browser-server interaction problem. The problem manifests a certain user forums where members post jpg images that appear as thumbnails. "I can right-click and select"Open in new window"or open in a new tab. Either way some images open OK, some open pivot 90 degrees out of position sometimes upside down. If I use Internet EXPLORE the same images will open on the right side.

  Not in bold. Looks like this:
  Layout.CSS.image - orientation.enabled; true
  Status: default
  Boolean type

  Laughing out loud! But if I double-click on it replaces:
  Layout.CSS.image - orientation.enabled; false
  Set of users of status
  Boolean type

  Now when I right-click the image and select either "open in new tab" or "open in new window" the image is right-side up!
  

  Thanks to you all!

• Click on a new website and it will open in a new window?

  For some time when I click on a link to something from another web page, it opens in a new window.
  Or if I select the option "open new windows in a new tab instead", then all links to a different Web site open in a new tab.
  For example if I search something in Google, and then click one of the results of the research. The result opens in a new Web site.
  However if I click on something else on the site of Google for example 'Shopping' then it will open in the same page.

  The result is very irritating because I find myself with hundreds of windows (or tabs) open.

  I suspect that this is a framework rather than a bug because it is 100% of the time.

  Any ideas guys? I'd like to go back to normal navigation

  sound according to your viewing site.
  A site code is written to open the link in the same page/new page/tab or.

  If it opens more than one page per click, then check for malware/thread.

• Firefox opens new tabs in the form of tabs first, then move on to the new windows

  I'm running FF 14.0.1 and the problem has persisted through a number of versions.

  Initially FF will open new tabs... CTRL + t work, do a right click to open in a tab etc all work fine. Sometimes the tabs are now question and I can get maybe 20 or open several tabs. And then other times we seem to be an arbitrary limit, say 5 tabs, and then each new tab opens a new window. No external link opens in a new window, a Ctrl + t opens in a new window, all new windows are the only image, for example, you can have a number of windows each tell 5 tabs, just the original (for example) window 5 and then a series of windows with only unique pages in each, and which Ctrl + t doesn't open a new window.

  A full restart sometimes heals things and I can go back to have different pages in different tabs and then something... without obvious motive... launch us in the "new window only" mode after what even if I reduce the number of tabs in the original window many tabs, Ctrl + t opens only new windows.

  He's really starting to happen to me... I have searched the technical support information and wonder about a full reset or even uninstall and reinstall. places.SQLite is verified as valid and I also, have it reindexed all to no effect.

  Try Firefox Safe mode to see how it works there.
  
  A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.
  
  (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

  • You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 4.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

  Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.

  To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.

  If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.

• "Open link in new window" will not do anything.

  So, I had to reset Firefox to its default settings as a result of a search engine very persistent, and since I did, when I right click on a link and select 'Open in a new tab' or 'Open in a new window' nothing happens. Now I can just left click. And please, suggests not an app or a plug-in. He has done it before, I just want to do it now.

  Have you already installed extensions or themes in the new profile?

  If menus do not work then the most likely cause is an extension that is not working properly.

• Everytime I open a new firefox window, a new tab opens with the new window. How do I stop this?

  Everytime I open a new Firefox window, the new window opens to the page of hope (as I want him), but then a tab opens with the new window. I want Firefox to stop doing this. When I open a new window I want just the window to open it. I don't know how to solve this problem I've known idea how I did that happen. First of all, it happened when I hit Ctrl + N to open a new window, but I did not hit the "N" itself. I pressed one of the other keys around the "N" and this issue has started.

  It's quite strange!

• How to prevent the tabs to open in a new window?

  Given that I have updated to the latest version of Firefox, I am plagued with a problem, and I can't seem to stop. When I go back to Firefox and click on any tab, it almost always causes this tab open in a new window. It is a feature - drag a tab in the screen and it will cause this tab open as a window, but I'm not meaning to drag these tabs, I understand! I use Firefox EXACTLY as I've used it for years, but for some reason, it seems to be interpreting my clicks differently - either I'm dragging the tab a * little * bit, or it simply registers that I dragged the tab when I did not. Is there a way to disable this feature? Or a way to decrease the sensitivity of the thing, so that you really need to let slide the tab into the input window opens in a new window? It's really making me batty. I'm about to move permanently to the Chrome.

  To be completely clear: what happens when I'm just trying to switch from one tab to another.

  You have no need to move your cursor a lot when you press the mouse button causes the tear-off/detachable tab in a new tab. No 'sensibility' that I know. The tab in the new window can be moved to the original window.

  To disable the feature, install this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug489729-disable-detach-and-t/

• Open in a new tab and open in a new window have been inverted, how to restore?

  I was pleased to see that I have connected today that Firefox has a update is ready. I was even more excited when I heard that the browser itself has been updated. And while all these new and exciting things make a surprising choice for a Firefox browser, im at my wits end on this little change which is annoying the hell out of me.

  Apparently between 3.6 and the new Firefox, when you right click on a link, you will see open in a new window to the place where has been opened in a new tab. This may not seem like a big deal, but a person who has been opening the windows to tabs for the tabbed browsing came out, I hate having multiple windows open.

  When I right click on a link, its an automatic reflex for me to open it in a new tab, but now I can't. Whenever I end up opening a window instead. Y at - it an easy solution to this little problem that drives me crazy?

• project sporadically opens in a new window, instead of the tab

  Hello

  Thank you for taking the time to read my post. I was not able to find this on the Internet or on this forum topic. I apologize in advance if it has been resolved.

  I have always go and often open my projects in my office.

  When I was Captivate 6.0, he would open a window and then, for each project, it would open a tab.

  After the update to Captivate 8, everytime I open a project, Captivate is still open in a separate/new window for each project!

  Is there a way to tell Captivate to ALWAYS OPEN NEW PROJECT in the current window, but the different tab?

  I tried to open a project in the menu bar (file > open > Select project), and still, it opens in a new window.

  Thank you for your time.

  Eric

  Hi Eric

  In fact, I'm rather surprised to hear that any version of Captivate would simply open projects recurrence in the same instance, but in different tabs. New windows are what I fully expect if the plans to open by double-clicking them just from the office.

  I would never advise people to function in this way. My personal opinion is to open by Captivate to open first, then using the file > open (or Ctrl + O in Lilybiri jobs).

  If you feel that it must operate differently, please consider filing a bug report using the link below.

• Disable tabs open in a new window

  I have the option "show my windows and tabs from last time ', but I would like to only the tabs of the last closed window, then when I start firefox, I get my last tabs of my"last sitting"and when I create a new window using ctrl + N, I have just a blank page waiting to be used, instead of a bunch of tabs , I opened the other session x.

  A new window opens with the Home page (s), so if several pages open in a new window, check the homepage.

  • Tools > Options > general > startup: Homepage

  Firefox supports several home pages separated by ' |' symbol (pipe).

• How to stop email in mozilla firefox, opening in a new window (I want to open it in a new tab)

  my email opens in a new window when I want my mail to open in a new tab in the toolbar when I press the button send. Please can you help?

  Oh, Yes, the email link button. Who is supposed to send your mail site instructions to compose a new message with a link to the current page.

  This button should call your bet here:

  "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > tabs > "open new windows in a new tab instead.

  If this is checked , then you should get a new tab. If it unchecked , then you should get a new window. At least, that is how it is supposed to work.

• When you click on "don't show this again option" in "Firefox prevented this page to open in a new window or tab," How do you get the window of options again?

  I clicked by mistake on the choice of "don't show this again option" in the "Firefox prevented this page open in a new window or tab", and now I can't understand how "uncheck" the box and back again once the window options.

  My bad - it was the pop up Adblock Plus 0.7 Addon.

  "I went just the Firefox button orange > Modules > Adblock Plus pop-up Addon 0.7 - > Options > my site rules > the site right click > edit > checked 'Block all pop-up windows' and unchecked" this rule applies to: 'New Windows' and 'new tab '.

  Presto! Firefox works as before.

  I didn't know I had controls within the addon that would affect the Firefox popup blocks the action.

  Please call the attention on the "details of the system more.»
