  • When you use the search bar, it is possible to get results of the search in a new tab?

    In the old Google toolbar, it was possible to display the search results in a new tab, Google toolbar is compatible with Firefox 7, so I have to use the Firefox search bar. However, he always gets results the research in the current tab. Can this be changed?

    Yes. Open a new tab and type or paste Subject: config in the address bar, press enter and press ENTER again to override the warning. Then stick browser.search.openintab in the filter area that shows, and then double-click the browser.search.openintab to activate (it will switch to "BOLD").

    If you had rather an add-on simply do the above for you and add a menu option for it, try this:

  • How can I remove the search engine on my page in new tabs?

    Hello

    a year or two ago I spent hours trying to find an answer to this question and I managed to do it, but unfortunately a few weeks back I had an unexpected data loss, and I'm unable to find a solution to my problem more.

    By 'on my new tabs page search engine', I mean the dialog box with the choice search engine that did not exist in the previous version of FireFox. I want to not go. Not changed Yahoo, Bing or anything else - just.

    If I remember, the solution was to go to about: config and change the settings for those who would make the thing not appear at all (rather that remove entirely), but if you know how to do so that he went not only visually, but also officially, I'm obviously very well with this solution too.

    Hi, you are using an older version of Firefox, which can compromise your security. Update to 41.0.1, open the 3-bar menu > help (question mark below on the right) > on Firefox.

    After that, here's some additional information for reference: you can change the number of tiles on the page new tab in zoom in or back (Ctrl and + key, or Ctrl and - key).

    You can also keep the same zoom setting when a new tab is clicked: Type Subject: config in the address bar, press ENTER, accept the warning, scroll to browser.newtab.preload and double-click on it to change the 'value' of true to False.

    It is also possible about: config to change the maximum number of tiles, scrolling to the browser.newtabpage.columns (or Rows), then right-click > modify to set a new number of 'value '. - Editor of Configuration of Firefox.

    However, given that you want to remove the search box in the new page tab, I suggest you try the add-on New tab tools.

    If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

  • How to remove add it on to google search when the new tab is selected.

    The location of the default cursor is in the search box that is displayed when a new tab is selected. It's a firefox add-on. I would remove that add on. So that the cursor will move to the browser when a new tab is selected.

    Hi cor - el

    Who did the trick. Now, I own empty screens when I open my home page or open a new tab. I like the simplicity - I don't want to see ads or irrelevant guff loads when I use internet. I like a clear workspace, it makes me more relaxed and more productive. I am now very happy!

    Thanks a lot for your help to solve my problems.

    And thanks to Monez01 to start the discussion.

  • I want to set a default "home page" for new tabs

    It * is * that when I open a new tab, the "default home page" (the page that is displayed when I first launch Firefox) would be displayed in the new tab. No more. Looks like you guys that changed. I tried to get this return of '' renewal '' of Firefox, and it does not solve the problem. Initially, the new tabs come totally blank. Now, they come with a tile from several options, apparently reflecting my recent history. The site I want is near the top of this page, but this isn't quite what I want.

    Not only it does not solve the problem, it also seems to have removed my pop up protection! Web sites that was not used to display pop-ups are showing them now! Yes, 'block pop-up windows' is checked in the settings. I think I lost an add-on protection pop up.

    In Firefox 41 the pref browser.newtab.url disappeared. This pref was abused by malware so frequently that Mozilla has decided to remove this pref to eliminate this kind of diversion.
    You will need an extension like this one to restore.
    https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-override/

    Or to have your home page as the new tab page, try this extension.
    https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

    If you are using Classic theme restaurateur, go in the CTR options > tabs (1) article and set your preference for the new tab URL here.

    For Super Start , you can use the topic: superstart page.

    Firefox update deleted all your extensions, you therefore need to re - install the blocker for popups, you had.

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • You can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot 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. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

  • Preview thumbnails on the page empty new tab only for some URLS

    When I open a new tab, there are three some preview thumbnails that are always empty, and there is no way I can make them appear again. They didn't work at first, but at some point the three extracts disappeared and never returned.
    I have already tried to empy cache and recharge sites as suggested here, but the thumbs are still empty. It's always the same three URLS where this happens. I have also erased from history, to open new sites and drag items in the history menu in a thumbnail - the same result.

    You can open the Web Console (Web Developer > Web Console;) CTRL + SHIFT + K) and click on the entrance to the home page (index) to inspect the response headers.

    You can reload webpages and ignore the cache to refresh all files.

    • Hold SHIFT and click reload.
    • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)
    • Press 'Cmd + Shift + R' (MAC)

  • By clicking on a search result from goole seaech bar, always opening google search homepage but cannot open search in a new tab by clicking medium, really frustrating.

    Whenever I am clicking on the results of the search from the Google search bar, it always opens the homepage of Google. I can only open in a new tab search results by clicking twice. It started when I installed Firefox 12.

    Off all extensions and on each one. Everytime you had to restart the browser. The problem is resolved after you turn off the 'Indian Rail Info App 4.78 Firefox' extension. He worked with previous versions of Firefox but the problem came with the installation of Firefox 12.
    Anyway, many many thanks.

  • How to home page for new tabs

    I don't know how to set the home page of the Initial screen on startup of Firefox, but every time I open a new tab, that it opens as a blank page. I want to set the home page for all new tabs that open (just like we have in Internet Explorer).

    This has happened

    Each time Firefox opened

    == I have installed the latest update.

    Hello Rajesh.

    This feature is no longer in default Firefox. You can simply Middle - click on the button home button instead of the new tab. It is a solution less that optimal, then you can consider installing an extension as a new tab homepage to allow you to load the homepage when you clean the new tab button. There are other extensions with this feature too, if you do not want one.
