Until today, I could use tabbed browsing. When I click on the sign to a new tab, nothing happens. I went through everything. Why is it not work?
Also I have a right-click to get the new tab add and nothing happens.
You have this problem when running in Firefox SafeMode?

Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.
If this is not the case, see this:

When I click on the + to open a new window I don't like the images that arise. I tried several times to change that through words: config; Browser.newtab.URL. I put in the site I want and it won't change. I tried to put in: blank and it don't work. I'm obviously something wrong - can you help please?
Thank you
If Firefox is ignorant preference browser.newtab.url, the usual culprit is an extension.
You can open the page in Firefox Add-ons using either:
- CTRL + SHIFT + a
- "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
- in the Windows "Run" dialog box, type or paste
firefox.exe "about:addons"
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions. Do not forget that all extensions are optional, none come with Firefox, and you can learn more about them by checking their reviews on the site of the Add - ons.
Often, 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.
Any improvement?

Looks like your pref browser.newtab.url has been changed.
This extension will reset some prefs to the value default - browser.newtab.url - is covered. See "on this add-on" for more details.
https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/SearchReset/It will run automatically and then disappear.

If it is a recent development, try to perform a system restore to a time before your problem. You may need to run from the command line as described in the following article:

I can't make new tabs. When I click on the sign +, nothing happens.
I've had this problem for a few weeks now. I was hoping maybe after updating to Windows 7 I find the use of tabs, but it didn't. When I try to open a new tab in Firefox, nothing happens. Even if I right click and click 'New tab', nothing happens. I tried to restart my computer, Windows Update, update Firefox, restart Firefox, re-installing of Firefox and nothing has worked. I have a suspicion that something is simply not compatible with Windows 7. Firefox still works fine on my other computers - a Vista, the other XP.
Uninstall the Ask Toolbar. It can cause this problem.

On my homepage, I have upward and I want to open a new tab. When I click to open a new tab, nothing happens. How can this be repaired?
Hello lsmalls787, try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables certain parameters, disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:
- In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button
click Help
then select restart with disabled modules.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:
- On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start 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. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.
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. This might help others with the same problem.
Thank you
- In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

When I click on the Home button, a new tab search server 10.0.0.4.
When I click on the Home button, FF 3.6.6 opens in a new tab, but also opens a new tab constantly seek the 10.0.0.4 server, which of course does not exist! Even whenever I open FF, it always automatically starts looking for server 10.0.0.4 and also opens my Home Page in a new tab.
This has happened
Each time Firefox opened
== I had to connect to the server from my college to access the Internet (they use Cyberroam to monitor access to the site). But now I'm home and connect directly to the net.
I solved the problem... quite stupid of me... Cyberroam changed my homepage link, which in fact check the server each time. All I had to do was select the Home Page file in the preferences and save it correctly.
Sorry for not checking properly in the first place.Fox

Before the last update, I could open a new tab by clicking on the + sign to the right of any open tabs. None. Nothing happens. If I click on a link in an e-mail or on a Web site, however, a new tab opens. For example, if I get an email from Facebook that says that someone has posted, and I click on the link, I'll get a new tab open, and Facebook will be there. Then I have two tabs open and can navigate on either without problem. If I click on the + sign, all nothing happens. I am perfectly able to open Safari with Firefox running and I get several tabs to get there without effect on Firefox. In other words, I can come and go.
I'm grateful for any help! Thank you.

Open a new tab for it (the sign on the far right of the tabs +) does not. How to fix this?
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.

Until I upgraded to Windowsw 7, Firefox used to take me directly to my Yahoo site. Why he does not now? I used to really love Firefox, but I'm completely frustrated just trying to get the answer to this question. Maybe I should just ask, "How do we uninstall it? But I would like to be able to use Firefox like I did before. Thank you
[email protected]Hi peggkel,
You say that you just want to change your homepage to Yahoo? Do not worry, it is quite easy! You should take a look at the Knowledge Base How to set the home pagearticle.
If this does not work, you should look at article unsaved Preferences.
Hope this helps!

When I go to internet banking as a clydesdale, it opens a new page to connect, but a few days ago it stopped working with the new update. Now when I click on connect, it says "FOUND the document pushed here." and clicking here opens another page of connection, but after being entered the details the page doesn't load. the same thing happens on other sites, on the other, when I click to read the messages page does nothing, and if I click to open in a new tab the same page is displayed instead.

Theres been other people having this problem too...
Yes, for example, that this person- https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1078226 -, but they did not post cost around if any suggestion made a difference, I appreciate your following upward.
Here are two other things to check:
(1) connection settings - have they been customized?
"3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced
Click the mini network, and then click the settings button
The default value of 'Use system proxy settings' should follow your 'LAN' setting, as well as IE, but you can also try 'No proxy' to see if that makes a difference.
(2) extensions - test Firefox to turn off Safe Mode
Firefox Safe mode 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?

Why locate browser when you click on the link in the email in Outlook?
I wonder what is happening and how I can stop that. Sometimes on my Windows XP Tablet that has been recently reinanstalled. This doesn't always happen. Sometimes, if there is a URL link in an e-mail message in my Outlook Inbox, when I clicked a box appears to want me to identify my browser. So I need to click on my computer in the box, then C: and then programs and find Internet Explorer.
Come on! How and why is it supposed to be forgetting what I have always used a my browser? I have no other browser on this pc.
