Why can't I find an add-on to open a new tab in my homepage on Firefox 5?

I was able to open a new tab in my homepage (Google in my case) in all other versions of Firefox. I'm a loyal user, but it's frustrating. I can't locate an add-on for this feature. Is there something there?

Tab utility 1.0.8 has this feature and works with version 5

  • How can I get rid of Yahoo when I open a new tab?

    My homepage is set to Firefox, but when I open a new tab, the tab is not Firefox with all of my most visited sites! It's Yahoo.

    You can check the suspicious extensions or recently installed unknowns.

    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.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe
  • How can I use - openURL remote without having to open a new tab?

    I have a kiosk based on the web that I built very long time (before tabbed browsing) that uses periodic calls to:

    Firefox-remote "openURL (http://start.csail.mit.edu/mit-museum)'

    to reset the kiosk to the homepage (the function depends on the web free-form only Browsing not a single sharp application that can recharge only periodically)

    Modern Firefoxes (now works with 12) this call always opens a new tab. I want to do is close all existing tabs but one and return this one to the home page.

    Is there a way to do it with one '-remote ' call or do I need to kill and restart the browser?

    in all: \windows\system32\conifg\system try to set "browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external" to 1

  • When I open a new tab and type a URL, Firefox ignores me and refreshes the tab instead. I then type the URL again. How can I fix it?

    I just installed Firefox 8 and this behavior is new for the upgrade. I checked my extensions installed against the list of extensions of the issues, and I have none of them (not looking for bars, no AVG, etc.). I already rebooted in safe mode and also used the option bars of tools and commands to reset.

    This has not fixed the problem.

    In addition to the troubleshooting caused it seem more related to tab mix. I've upgraded to the current development version of that and the problem seems to have declined.

  • I can not open a new tab when I click on the + to add a new tab, so I can't have several tabs open. How can I solve 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

  • I can't find an option to display a "plus" sign next to the tabs to open a new tab.

    I recently had my re installed Windows. I used to have the plus sign next to my tabs in Firefox to add a new tab, and they no longer appear. I know that I can open a new tab in the menu file, but I'd like to see the sign again to open one and I can't find the option to do so.

    You are using an older version of Firefox that does not have this feature; you need Firefox 3.5 or higher.

    This problem is Firefox on your Mac?

    Perhaps users have discovered that this problem is caused by led modules, for example a plugin Conduit and/or an extension "Community Toolbar".

    You can check and disable the extensions on page modules. Either:

    • Command + shift + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off.

    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.

    What helps with the button "+"? If so, you can name the specific extension that caused the problem?

    You can also see the Plugins page modules. You can never use 'activate' to disable plugins that you do not usually use.
