philipp 8 months ago hello namihir, you can either install the search reset addon which will fix this or you can manually change the new tab page by entering about:config into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up), searching for the preference named browser.newtab.url and right-clicking & resetting it to its default value (about:newtab).

mhensel@socal.rr.com 3 months ago Since I did the update to Firefox 17 I cannot select 'File" "Open New Tab". Nothing happens. I have to 'open new window'. I just updated to 18.0.1 this morning and it still won't work. How can this be fixed?

cor-el 3 months ago Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

mhensel@socal.rr.com 3 months ago Turns out it was the Avery Toolbar, which has been on there a long time but must have some type of conflict with 17 and later. Will leave it off for now.
