When I open a new tab, it is filled with a non desired site. How to open a blank page in a new tab?

Looks like an unscrupulous web site had made himself the location of the new default tab. Everytime I open a new tab, it turns out the unscrupulous site. I just get a blank page when I open a new tab. How can I get rid of this "" new tab by default?

See:

You can use the SearchReset extension to reset preferences to default values.

Note that the SearchReset extension runs only once and then uninstalls automatically, so it will not appear on the page "> Firefox Add-ons" (topic: addons).

If you do not keep the changes after a reboot or have problems with preferences, see:

    Hi Summerdaze,

    I'll try from Firefox Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode. If you do not have the issue so that all your modules, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the guide to troubleshooting Extensions and themes and article troubleshooting issues with plugins like Flash or Java to solve common Firefox problems as well.

    Hope this helps!

  • When I open a blank tab, it goes to a strange Web page. How to open like something useful?

    When I open FireFox, in a first time, it opens a tab in my homepage, as it should. But, when I open a new, blank tab he goes on some website. I can't find options to tell what to do with a blank tab in the current version of FireFox, and I'm sure I've seen this option in older versions. I would like to be the tab to be totally blank or having thumbnails of recent/frequent pages I visit.

    You can watch the pref browser.newtab.url the topic: config page and set this pref to the URL of your preferred the new tab page.

    • the new default tab with the tiles page is on: newtab
    • the default homepage is Subject: Home
    • to a blank page, you can use Subject: vacuum

    The pref browser.newtabpage.enabled must be set to true to use the page defined through browser.newtab.url like the new tab page.

  • When I opened TB start page is not used. I lists the local folders only. Bar menu, tool or Nosend.

    I don't have a normal opening page, when I opened TB. The only thing on the screen is a list of local folders on the left side of the screen with only 3 listed columns. Subject, from, and Date. There is no address list, tool or menu bars, writing, sending view etc. The change of the screen that's happened several weeks ago. I pressed a button and the screen changed from normal to one that only shows the screen of the local folder. I was not able to respond to my email or write brand new. I have concluded that if there is no other choice, other than to uninstall and reinstall new TB please don't let me know. I have been without email for about 3 weeks now and that must be fixed. I'd appreciate any help you can give. I'm not a computer language and technical or program explanation writers are usually not easy for me to decipher so if there is no simple solution to my problem don't let me know and I'll uninstall and reinstall the latest version. Thank you

    First of all, try to open in safe mode:
    Hold your shift down when you start Tbird. Don't make permanent changes. Click on continue in integrated security mode.
    Any change?
    Right-click on the top border. You get an opportunity to activate the menu and mailtools? In the affirmative.

  • When I open a web page that I created on my computer, it is not playing music. He will play if I open it in Internet Explorer.

    Build web pages on my computer, and before I updated Firefox I could hear the music when I opened the page. Since I updated Firefox music will not play. If I open the page in Internet Explorer, the music plays very well. When I go to my Web site on the internet, the music plays very well. It only happens when I open a page on my computer. I have Windows XP. I downloaded all the new plugins, but nothing helped.

    You must specify a MimeType attribute.

    If Firefox doesn't know which plugin to use.

    Using type = "application/x-mplayer2" will use the Windows Media Player.

  • How to remove common blank page tab

    When I open a page there are all these miniature style tabs, I really don't want them. Have not found a way to remove them. Please don't tell me not just "hide". If I can actually customize Firefox they way I want the I chose to delete these tabs, not hide them. I'm getting sick and tired of seeing the useless features such as this pop up during an update for Firefox. If there is no way to remove it I might have to start looking for another browser.

    Want a totally blank page when you open a new tab?
    If so, type the following in the address bar and press ENTER.

    Subject: config
    - accept the warning message

    Filter this pref - browser.newtab.url and then right-click this preference.
    Select Edit - type Subject: empty as the new value.
    Restart Firefox.

    Or you can use this extension for more options with NewTab.

  • address bar does not go to any website that I type, just open a blank page.

    When I type an address in the address bar, just opened a new blank page. If I type in google.com, google or www.google.com it always does. I have to type in the search bar, and then choose it from the list that appears. The only addresses that work are those that are in the memories of my story.

    This can be caused by an add-on. To test this try the procedure described in article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    Only in the last day, I started having problems with Firefox crashing. In the first hour, the problem only seemed to happen when I went to some websites, such as Gmail or YouTube.

    Now, however, Firefox will crash as soon as I open a new empty tab. I am able to start Firefox, and it will show the page to "re-establish the Session. I can use the menu to open, for example, on: supports, but as soon as I do CMD + T to open a new tab, Firefox will crash.

    Hmm, so I recently had my hard drive is not on me, and I had to reformat and any transfer during a backup of my laptop. Since then, Firefox seems to work very well yet. Thanks for all the help and suggestions!
