• Top Sites not appearing is not on the new tab

  I've just updated to the new version 13.0 FF and the new feature that uses history to display more sites on the new tab does not work. When I opened a new tab it's white, I tried pulling on a site to my favorites and let it load and opening and then a new tab and it show up, but when I went to pin it, he disappeared.

  I have been using the 'pin as app tab' feature from the previous version, but I would try new things with the new tab page.

  Thanks for the help of Verdi, but it wasn't my problem. The thumbnails are empty, they do not connect to all websites.

  I found my problem while in the options I don't have the option checked to remember my browsing and download history. Once I checked that he began to keep track of, and when I open the new tab top sites begin to appear.

• new tab does not appear when you press the button "open"

  A few days ago I suddenly can not open a new tab when you press the button open tab , press file-> open the tab, or Open the tab button next to a tab...

  Uninstall the toolbar Ask and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask and Firefox toolbar that prevents the opening of new tabs.

  There are a few places to check for the Ask toolbar:

  • Check the control panel Windows for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
  • Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

• How can I reset the page that appears when I open a new tab "white"?

  MySearchDial reset my settings in several browsers. I deleted the program, I set my home page and removed the site from the list of engines of research possible, but when I opened a new tab "in white", it always opens with MySearchDial features. I tried the SearchReset extension, it did not work. I tried the subject: config newtab url, that does not work either.

  How to reset it?

  Could you take a second look at everything: config?

  (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) If you check the browser.newtab.url preference, what is he on? These are the typical things:

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

  If it is already set correctly, but still, you get a white page MySearchDial, one of your other extensions may be the problem.

  You can consult, disable and/or remove extensions on page modules. Either:

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

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

  If it indicates that it is locked or refuses to save the changes, Check Control Panel, uninstall a program for a program called research protect and remove that. Locked preference may also indicate the presence of a mozilla.cfg file. If you think that, please post back for more information, by simply removing this file can cause problems.

• How can I get rid of the history that appears when I open a new tab?

  When I open a new tab, I had a bunch of places I've been before. I don't want that. I don't need people to see where I've been by the images showing on the page. so, how can I get these gone?

  Oh sorry, the link to locate the profile folder (designating the user.js file) is in the article profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data .

• 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.
