• 'Right click menu/open in a new window' does not-nothing happens.

  When I right click on a link, a menu very long comes with many choices that have nothing to do with the links (like 'copy image'). When I select "open in new window' or 'open in a new tab', nothing happens. I've just updated to the latest version of FF yesterday (08/05/13). I don't have whatever it is personalized for the new facility. Before to install the new everything worked fine.

  Hello lindal, this is most likely caused by an outdated addon. one of them is firebug, so in case you have installed, please upgrade to the latest version.

• Firefox keeps blocking all the links, I click to open in a new window even sites that are on my allow list and secure government sites. How can I stop?

  Firefox blocks everything I need to click on allow and on some sites I do several times that the Web page reloads the page for a new investigation.
  Very annoying... enough so that I can stop using firefox and not recommend it to others.

  Firefox normally a redirection to another address will automatically follow.

  You can check that the block of redirection is not lit? This setting is on the Panel of the preferences page:

  "3-bar" menu button (or Firefox) > Preferences > advanced

  Under the mini general tab in the accessibility section, uncheck the box "warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page.

  If you have changed that, no matter what difference?

  If it was already off, it could be an add-on, or some security software or another program filtering that changes an automatic this intermediate page redirect.

  Thanks for posting the details of your system. I'm skeptical about the "CompTool0234 Community Toolbar". Could you disable some add-ons and see if that helps.

  On this tab:

  Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > addons > Plugins category

  Disable «Conduit Plugin»

  On this tab:

  Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > addons > Extensions category

  Disable the CompTool0234 community toolbar.

  Then very probably a link will appear to restart Firefox to make the change. Does make a difference?

• When you click on a tab open, how to do the update automatically in the body of the page?

  When you click on a tab open, how to do the update automatically in the body of the page?

  Right clicking on a tab open and using the arrow keys now now moves through open tabs. I liked the old versions where just after having clicked on a tab you can directly go to the page with the arrow keys to navigate.
  Y at - it something that I can change the subject: config to change this behavior?
  Thanks in advance.

  Firefox has yet to set the focus in the area of browser if you click on a tab.
  
  Only with very old browser versions you could set the focus to a tab by clicking a tab.

  This problem is probably caused by an extension.

  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).

  • Do NOT click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.

• When I click on a tab, the tab will not open, so I can only have one tab open at the same time. How can I fix it?

  I use Firefox for about a year, and I use several tabs all the time. Tonight, when I clicked to open a new tab, nothing happened. Firefox starts and displays the first tab with the site, I've specified, but when I try to open new tabs, nothing happens.

  You probably have an another addon that is the cause.

Even when I go to 'File' and 'New tab' it still does nothing. The only time wherever I can get a new tab to open is if I go to 'Help' and click "Firefox Help" then opens a new tab with firefox help.

  Please disable or uninstall the extension "Ask Toolbar". He has a known compatibility issue with the latest update of Firefox.

  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.

• When I click on the + to open a new window I don't like the images that arise. I tried to change that in all: config; Browser.newtab.URL, but it will not

  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?

• 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.
