stop home page, opening on each new tab

Similar Questions

• Whenever I click on the "home" button, my home page is displayed but a Firefox start page opens in a new tab. How can I stop this?

  This problem began only after I've upgraded to the latest version of Firefox.

  Hi Doug,.

  Sorry about that. It might be this time your home page and the Firefox start page are defined as your home page.

  Here's how to reset your home page:

  1. Open your home page and close other tabs
  2. Click on the

     

     menu button and click on Preferences

  3. In the Preferences window, click on general
  4. Click the use current Pages button

  I hope this will fix things. Let us know if it works!

  Best,

• Custom home page opens in a new window

  For the passage of the last days, Firefox does not open my costum home page in a new window. It will show only my tabs from the last use.
  I tried:
  Homepage of setting empty. Save and put the link back in.
  Talk openly about: config and change the homepage.
  Opportunity https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/
  Remove all toolbars new and updated
  Entered into safe mode

  and nothing has worked.

  I can always click on the home button and the link opens

  You can check if you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize some preferences at each start of Firefox.

  You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

  • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)

  Note that Windows hides certain default file extensions.
  Among them are .html, .ini and .js, .txt, so you can only see a user no file extension name.
  You can see the actual file extension (type), if you open the properties of the file via the context menu.

  The user.js file appears only if you or another software created, therefore, normally, he wouldn't be here.
  You can check its contents with a text editor if you do not create this file yourself.

  The user.js file is read whenever you launch Firefox and initializes the preferences to the value specified in this file, so set of preferences via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.

• When I open firefox, my home page opens as two other tabs that I have my favorites, but don't ask don't not to save.

  Well enough what it says above. I haven't recorded telling me to reopen these pages, but when I launch Firefox, I have three tabs open automatically:

  (1) home page.
  (2) BBC radio player.
  (3) a message board that I use.

  I can't find a way to stop the loading of these pages.

  I'm guessing that you have these other loaded into your homepage layout.

• How can I stop sites to open ads in new tabs?

  I have all anti-ad on Earth, it seems, and now sites have found a workaround by forcing ads to open new tabs. Is it possible to stop these? I went back to ABP because UBlock was too aggressive and cause me problems.

  You may have ad / bad-ware. More information can be found in the article troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware .

  Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. Each works differently. If a program forgets something, someone else can pick it up.

• When you read the Wall Street Journal, open in a new tab item takes 45seconds. all other sites OK

  When reading WSJ online (which I do every day), I read specific articles of each summary page opening in a new tab, or I use CoolIris Previews. Recently he has begun to take up to 60 seconds to get the new tab or the preview.

  This does not happen on another site - I visit sites of 20 or more different by day...

  I'm running Win 7 x 64 and uses version FF 26

  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).

• When I put in place many home pages, I get two NEW pages when I click on 'Home'

  Firefox on XP 19.0.2
  I've always had firefox put in place to open two pages, so that my homepage is
  https://www.google.com. https://www.Google.com

  When I open Firefox, I have two tabs, two on Google. If I opened a 3rd tab, I get a blank page. Just what I wanted.
  Now, all of a sudden - when I open Firefox, I have my two pages, but if I'm on Page 0 and click on HOME, I get TWO tabs open to my home page (for a total of 4 pages).

  I read online to replace the hose with 7% C but that causes a Service of-27 error.

  Something has changed within FF in the updates... How can I get the expected return behavior?

  We try to understand what you want to achieve and perhaps provide an alternative because it does not work with Firefox the way you currently use.

  If you set multiple home pages then all of these pages will open if you click the home button.
  
  That has always been the case in Firefox.
  
  In some cases the active tab may be protected and these pages open in a new tab, so you can end up with two additional tabs if you have two pages defined as many home pages.

• Change the link to a Flash file, so it opens in a new tab

  Hello everyone. I have a flash file on my client's Web site home page. When you click on 'Enter', the new page opens in a new tab. I want it all to stay in the same tab. If you want to see all the code yourself in order to identify how I could solve this problem, the site is: www.amycarriermodel.com - but if not then I'll paste the code of the object flash below:

  Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you

  You must be able to adjust the code for the button of the Flash file to specify that it opens in the same window (use "_self" as the argument of the window).

  If your slide show program does not provide for the addition of this argument, and if you have no fla file for the swf file that you created, then your only hope might be to buy a decompiler program and see if you can create a FLA of your swf with her.

  Other that this, create your own slide show using Flash and you will have no problem affecting this button up... but that's probably easier to say what to do if you have any Flash experience.

• How can I change the tab settings so that when I manually opened a new tab, my home page opens in it?

  Internet Explorer provides the following options to open a new tab:
  "When a new tab is opened, open:
  -A blank Page
  -The new tab Page
  -Your first homepage.

  On Firefox 3.6.10, the only option is the new tab page. If you click on 'Close' an empty page is displayed. There is no option for a new tab, open your homepage.

  In addition, you cannot right click the home button to 'open in a new tab '.

  Y at - it a shortcut for this, and if not, can firefox include this option in the next version?

  Middle or {Ctrl + click} Home button-click to open your home page in a new tab. Or you can add this functionality via an extension.

• 20.0.1 updated: right click on the page displays all THE menu options, many (all?) don't work, no 'view page source', not 'open in a new tab '.

  After 20.0.1 a few hours ago, click Update right displays all THE menu options, do not work a lot (all?), as 'view page source', 'open in a new tab' etc etc.

  To clarify, this happens if you have the active Firebug 1.10.6 addon.
  You can fix it by updating to the version of Firebug 1.11.2

  Here's how:
  Go to your add-ons Manager, right-click on the Firebug add-on and select 'Find updates'.

  Hope that helps.

• 'Open in a new page' and 'open in a new tab' has been two-way?

  I'll keep new pages instead of new tabs open.
  The two functions of right click were bidirectional and is it possible to swop their return?

  Yes, they were exchanged. Open in a new tab now first is (formerly second) and open it in a new window is now second (formerly first).
