When I opened a new tab and type in a URL, a new window opens, rather than the link that appears on the tab. Also, at the opening of links embedded in the pages, these always open new windows rather than tabs. I want to use the tabs!

I cleaned my keyboard, I wonder if some button pushed that changed the settings. But when I look at the settings of firefox, nothing is obvious.

You have changed your config file by accident? There is an option in the subject: config that modifies the default behavior. Here is the knowledge base article.

You can check to see if it is set by default.

  • What to do when my PC crashed with BOD and calls for a previous version of Windows?

    First of all thank you for all the help.

    I already posted this question in response to my previous thread but I don't know if everyone saw that since is a response.

    And now the sad news.
    I am currently typing this laptop for my wife because my PC is completely crushed.
    After being able to finally load these SPs and all my drivers and other software, it seemed that it worked.
    I always tried to avoid the automatic update because everything seemed ok.
    Whenever I have had more software installed on my pc I set up the new restore point.
    In fact twice because the third time I typed system3 and press ENTER to create the new restore point I had immediately the Blue Screen of Death that I'we heard about before.
    So I tried to re - install Windows again, but for the first time that I am not even able to do.
    He said: Windows didn't start because the following file is missing or corrupted \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM
    Then he said to press r in the first screen to try to resolve what I did.
    With my original XP cd in, it took me for Windows set up where I faced another problem (new).
    He said: Setup cannot find a previous version of windows installed on your computer.
    He asked me to insert my original cd with NT, 95 or 98 on it.
    OK - I've upgraded from 98 years and I still have this start up par 3 1/2 98 but after moving so fast and technology upgrades for my Office Perrine drive seemed like the size of space.
    What are my options to resolve this problem?
    My HD could be fried?
    Couldit be some project of pirates or viruses?
    I 2HDs a C: 40giga.old Western digital that I had my Windows and second giga D: 120 which was more for backup and storage.
    After having all these problems I always C: formatted and reinstalled Windows but never really messed with my D: drive.
    Could there be something on D:, even after fresh Windows would keep jump on C:?
    Also why it asks me to insert the 98 now and not more recent before when I formatted and resettled C: windows.

  • Maximum RAM and type for Satellite Pro A100

    Hello.

    I have already looked at my manual, but I can't get a definitive answer.

    I went to one of these computers, analysis of Web sites and it claims I have 2 SLOTS where I can put 1 GB DDR II PC2-4200 each (so 2048 MB of ram)
    (es http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.aspx?model=Satellite%20Pro%20A100%20Seri) But according to CPU - Z, my laptop contains DDR II PC2-4300 512 MB

    But when I recorded from TOSHIBA Web site and entered the serial number of my cell phone, he told me that I had a Satellite Pro A100-196
    When I searched for Satellite Pro A100-196 on the internet, I came across a website (http://toshiba.icecat.biz/en/p/PSAACE-00E00DG3/Satellite%2520Pro%2520A100-196.htm) that says that 100-196 a module of DDR II (533 mhz) and that it can place additional modules up to 4096 MB (which means I can't that modules of RAM 2 GB each)

    So I would like to know if anyone knows the final RAM MAX (and type), I can place.

    Thank you.

    The Satellite Pro A100-196 appears to bear the 667 Mhz front bus!
    So, you can also use the modules of memory 667 Mhz (533 Mhz is also possible).

    I advise to use SODIMM 200 PIN DDR2 modules; 667 MHz (PC2-5300)

    You can upgrade the memory to 4 GB max. So it is certainly possible to use a 2 GB into a slot!

    Good bye

  • When I opened a new tab, I'm always redirected to a page which I don't see, how do I fix

    About two days ago, I noticed that everytime I open a new tab in the browser opens a new page instead of a vacuum... im always redirected to the site https://sg.yahoo.com/...how can I fix?... This is the result of a malicious program?... Thanks in advance for helping me

    Hi, it could be malicious, but first try this: Type Subject: config in the address bar, press ENTER, accept the warning, scroll to browser.newtab.url and make sure that 'Value' is defined Subject: newtab (right click > change, change it if necessary, taking care to not to change what anyone else). You will then need to restart Firefox.

    As an alternative, you can use the add-on SearchReset.

    If the new tab gets changed back once again, it is possible that an add-on or theme is the cause, then try Mode without failure of Firefox to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in 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.

    If it persists, you can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

    Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one. Windows 8 already has integrated antivirus.

  • How can I get rid of the private browsing page when you open a new private window?

    When I opened a private page of private browsing navigation appears and says this:

    Private browsing

    Firefox don't remember the history of this window.

    In a private browsing window, Firefox will retain all the history of the browser, search history, download history, form web history, cookies or temporary internet files. However, files you download and bookmarks you make will be kept.

    To stop private browsing, you can close this window.

    While this computer will not have a record of your browsing history, your internet service provider or your employer can always track the pages you visit.

    I want to get rid of this suggestion?

    It is not possible to get rid of this page in normal mode.
    However, you do not get this page if you start Firefox in private browsing permanent mode (don't remember history).

    • Tools > Options > privacy > Firefox will be: "Use the custom settings for history": "always use the private browsing mode.

  • Unwanted page appears when I open a new tab in an existing window.

    When I open Firefox, it opens to Google, which is my preferred homepage. I set Google as my search engine preferred on the Firefox toolbar. However, whenever I open a tab in the existing window, it opens to the unwanted Bing. How can I configure Firefox to open new tabs open in the existing window to Google.
    I'm not tech savvy, so I would appreciate a response which takes into account.
    Thank you.

    The new tab page can be changed by a commissioning or use of an extension cord. We will try the setting first, then if necessary, check the extensions.

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference browser.newtab.url and enter your favorite page:

    • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
    • Blank tab = > subject: empty
    • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
    • Any other page = > full URL of the page

    Press Ctrl + t to open a new tab and check that it worked. Fixed?

    Three things to look out for:

    • If Firefox will save any modification of this parameter, you can have a program called search protect you need to uninstall through Control Panel, add/remove programs.
    • If Firefox ignores the setting, one of your extensions may be substitution of her. Please, open the page modules, Extensions section and take a critical look at what is there. To a first approximation, try disabling everything will not be in the next 24 hours. You can open the page using either of the following, and then click on "Extensions" in the left column:

      • CTRL + SHIFT + a
      • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
    • If the modification works for the rest of your session, but at the next start is return empty, you might have a user.js file in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). This article describes how to track down and delete the file: How to fix preferences that will not save. Some utility programs as Advanced SystemCare have a feature to restore your settings to a previous state between sessions ("surf Protection"). Another thing to check is if you keep losing your settings changes.

  • I got the new version 8.0 of firefox today and now when I put a new URL in a tab open or type a URL in a new tab, nothing DON'T get PAST! Help!

    Since I installed version 8.0 of Firefox earlier today, I was unable to get new Web pages by typing in their URLs. If I click on a link in a tab that was opened before the installation (and was called by restoring the Session after I installed the new version) - say in one of my messages in the Hotmail or one with another showing - Web page tab all right and I go to the new page. Even if I click the back arrow: I can go back and forwards to pages that have already been opened in the previous session.

    However, if I type a URL to a new site in the address bar, OR open a new tab and enter a URL here... When I press the Enter key sometimes NOTHING AT ALL. Same thing if I click on the thumb to the new address arrow that appears to the right of the location bar - nothing. This has happened over and over again.

    What is going on? If I use IE, everything works very well, there must be something in Firefox. I need to just go back to the previous version of Firefox I had before this last update? As it is now, I can't go to all the pages that I haven't looked in my session restored, which is not only frustrating but makes Firefox pretty useless for future use. Alternatively, if it is another problem, any ideas on what and how to fix it? Thank you.

    Time for a bit of troubleshooting.

    Try Firefox SafeMode 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 Firefox 4, 5, 6, 7 SafeMode 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 SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.
