Why firefox opens a tab when I open an attachment?

The attachment opens either pdf file but a new tab will open in the browser

Hi sfw13,
Is Firefox browser by default when you open the attachment?
Also, is there an action associated with the program/mail client that you open the attachment from.

If you use webmail please checkwhat to do if you can not download or save files and change what Firefox does when you click on or download a file

  • How can I make firefox save my tabs when I close it?

    Why can't make you it more comfortable and easy to use? Firefox is a great program but its lack of customization. Personally, I think that all that lack of simplicity, unfortunately has no quality. How can I fix this without having to change to another browser?

    Firefox automatically records the tabs when the user closes the it. They are available in history > restore previous Session and at the bottom of the default (topic: Home) home page - restore previous Session

    Hi apdubois, it is useful to know that Flash is the problem but, as you point out, life without Flash is not very interactive.

    It is a standard orientation that addresses the most common reasons for problems of Flash in Firefox. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:

    (1) make sure that all recorders/downloaders who interact with Flash media are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them temporarily.

    (2) disable graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox and Flash

    (A) in Firefox, uncheck the box here and restart:

    the button Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) > Options > advanced > General > "use hardware acceleration when available.

    (B) in Flash, see this article from Adobe technical support: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues

    (3) turn off protected mode (Windows Vista/7/8)

    I need to reset?

    • Use Restore or expand in the context menu of the taskbar icon to set the focus to the Firefox application if you do not see the window of Firefox.
    • Open the system menu of the window of Firefox via Alt + space and see if you can move and resize the window (use the arrows on the keyboard).

    If it works, then first close all other open windows of Firefox and then close Firefox via "file > exit/Quit" to save the setting.

  • Firefox restore closed tabs when the value "show my home page".

    I put the option when Firefox starts: "show my home page". I expect to get a tab open, showing my home page. Instead, I get a bunch of tabs that were open when I closed Firefox during reconfiguration. This includes my home page under the first tab - but maybe it's because that's how things were when you saved the info. I was reconfiguration because I just updated Zone Alarm and, as usual, he fiddled with my settings. (Grrr!)

    Found the answer. About: config, browser.startup.homepage had all the tabs that I was getting, not only the page I requested. I put it by clicking on 'current use' from the relevant Panel. Fixed by changing the string for browser.startup.homepage, he likely could be fixed by closing unwanted and then put tabs in homepage again.

  • Why firefox has slow response when I save images on hard drive?

    I have windows 7 64 bit and Mozila firefox worm 17.0.1. I have the following problem. When I try to save an image from a site (right mouse click and save as) the disk hard from my pc, firefox response is slow. It takes about 6 to 10 seconds. I thought that it was a matter of file size, but it turned out that it was not relevant because it was images of 10 KB to 500 KB. I did the following:
    -clear history
    -clear the firefox cache and the cache folder in my profile
    -Delete the downloads.sqlite and localstore.rdf files
    -J' changed the browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone and services.sync.prefs.sync.browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone false
    -clear the downloads window
    -Disable all add-ons

    After all this, the problem remains
    Then I started firefox in safe mode (help-> restart with the disabled... modules). The problem remains.
    Then I disabled the windows firewall and Microsoft security essentials (real-time protection). I don't have any other antivirus or firewall on my pc. Nothing happened.

    Then, I created a new profile (reset firefox). Nothing happened. A last attempt, then, remained to be done. Restart in safe mode. So I followed these steps.
    I ran msconfig and disabled Microsoft Security Client to start tab and Microsoft antimalware Service on the services tab. So, I did a boot in safe mode with network support and disabled windows firewall. Guess what. Nothing happened.

    I noticed that when I tried to record images, in the process, there was a significant activity of hard drive (the hard drive activity led indicator was constantly lighting) and firefox in the upper left corner, shown the message does not for about 6 to 10 seconds. You understand that saving a picture of 19 Ko in 10 seconds is not normal.

    Is - this problem has to do with the cache? The disc is a SSD (solid state drive). Do you think that it would be preferable to redirect the in-memory cache? (I have 6 GB of total RAM). This problem was also in previous versions of firefox, but I think that with this version, the problem is more common. This is not the case with all the photos, but it happens with more than 65% of the images.

    It also happens when loading a web page, but it could be a question of a heavy web page that uses a lot of resources in my system, while loading. The problem is the same. Constant hard disk activity and it takes time to load the web page. The problem with the loading of the web page, is not as common as with saving images.

    I think it's a question of management of the cache. What is your opinion?

    Thank you.

    The cause of my problem was the jump lists, which has Windows 7. There are two types of jump lists, automatic or custom. Automatic jump lists caused the slow decline in firefox via Windows Explorer. Finally, it was a windows problem exploring and not firefox. Windows 7 introduces many new features that cause slow system performance. In any case, the solution to the problem is to follow the steps:
    1. open my computer and on the address bar paste the path: %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations
    2. press CTRL + a
    3. press SHIFT + DELETE and delete the entire folder
    I think the respective windows Explorer jump list is one that begins with 1b4dd67f29cb1962, in which case you do not want to delete the list of every jump in the folder. If you use firefox, download a file and then go to the above mentioned path and view the files by date. The most recent file must be the correspondent with firefox.

  • Why firefox is always problem when I put cache 0 MB Web site?

    Hello

    I develop Web sites and about 1 month, I think that to the top of the Version 30 or 31 have problems with the cache.

    I activated the manual cache size and set it to 0MB (Web sites), but I still have problems that a site is cached.

    In development, it's a big problem, when the browser still shows you an old page. I have change something in my code, but it does not apear when I reload the page. When I opened another browser chrome for example I see my changes.

    BTW, I don't like chrome and I was really happy when I stay in firefox. But the described problem could couse me to change browser.

    Best regards and continue to have fun in dev
    Michael Topor-Grabowski

    Hello Michael,
    There are actually quite a few ways to accomplish what you're trying to do. To refresh the page without querying the cache, the simplest method is to type ctrl and f5 instead of simply typing f5 or hit the button reload. The second would be to set up your development web server to transmit the "Cache-Control: non-cache ' directive cache so that any browser you test with, (as long as it is in accordance with w3c) does not cache the hosted Web pages. The last method should be considered as a last resort, but you could also disable the cache of Firefox by activating / disabling the network.http.use option - Hide all: config to false. Remember, once you decide on one of these methods to clear your browser cache before testing again.
