Why my already open tabs switch in a new window when I switch to them?
I have several tabs open in a particular window. There's that one open window because that I do not have many windows. Sometimes when I click one of my open tabs, it appears in a new window. How can I disable this or at least put it back on the original window?

It is the characteristic of tear-off/detachable tabs in Firefox. A small downward movement when clicking on a tab can cause the tab to rip and in a new window. You can drag the tab in the window of the new window origin.
To stop the behavior, you can install this add-on:

I think you should be able to open a new window using javascript in the function definition,
Please check out the http://mukx.blogspot.com/2007/07/javascript-in-oa-framework.html blog and try it.

I often have several tabs in the same open site, but using the dropdown won't let me switch to the already open tab. Is there an easy way to do it without having to re - enter the site for each new tab? Disable the option "switch to tab"?
There is an add-on that can disable this, go to the tab no more - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/switch-to-tab-no-more

I can only open a new tab by clicking on an element to an already open tab and choose open in a new tab. Nothing else works for example file, new tab or by clicking the new tab to the right of the last tab.
Uninstall the Ask Toolbar. It can cause this problem.

Can I set default to always open a link in a new window, as opposed to a new tab?
Can I set a default to always open a link in a new window instead of a new tab?
No, not to always open a link in a new window. If a link opens in the same window or a new window depends on the creator page specifying new or empty for this link. Firefox can divert the news/white window in a tab instead, which is the default setting.
If you do not want tabs when a new/empty window is specified, deselect the pref to open new windows in a new tab instead , in tools > Options > tabs

You may need to try Mode without failure of Firefox to see if an add-on is causing the problem; See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode
- In Firefox 4, to enter Safe Mode, hold the SHIFT key while clicking on the icon of the desktop Firefox 4.
- Firefox Safe mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, place you in the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > Themes before start Safe Mode. When you enter Safe Mode, do not check all the items in the window, just click "continue mode without failure." A test to see if the problem you are experiencing is fixed.
- If the problem does not occur in mode without failure, then disable all your Extensions and Plug-ins, and then try to find out who is causing by allowing both the problem reappears. You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change via file > restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use 'Disable all add-ons' on the start safe mode window.

Tabs to go to the new window when I don't want what it
When I work with pages (tabs) they suddenly in a new window when I don't want it. It only started doing this recently. Don't know if it's a upgrade, or because of a certain add-on thing.
If you select a tab, you move the mouse? By dragging a tab opens in a new window. I don't have this problem because I use a trackball, but which can be difficult to avoid when using a mouse.
