I read the forum boards but either did not find it or overlooked the answer. I checked all my other settings and cannot find anything that would be causing this. Please advise?

Hi. I'd like to know how to remove the redirection to the navigation bar when I open up a new tab. Everytime I open up a new tab I've set it so I come to my homepage, google. But instead of directing me to the search bar in the center of the site, as it usually does when you type in the address and hit enter, it redirects me to the navigation bar, removes everything there and puts out the text "Go to a website". I don't want that, I want so it puts me in the search bar like if I'd have typed in the address in the navigation bar. Thanks in advance.

I am unable to open a new tab by clicking on the new tab button or by clicking open new tab from the FF drop down menu at top of browser. Also, none button work in FF, such as Home, Back, Forward, or refresh. This is so aggravating!!

we have firefox esr version which we use in kiosk mode. we want to disable navigation bar but should be able to open multiple tabs and access them.

Now problem is : once i enable tabs and navbar is hidden. then we are not able to access next/previous tabs. key shortcut (Ctrl+tab or Ctrl+shift+tab) doesn't work. so we can not see another tab.

once i show navbar/tabs then address bar/search bar is also visible which we don't want.

Our requirement is to see multiple tabs with no address/search bar. Please provide help on how we can go to solve this.

Thanks

When I play a video, and open another tab, the tab with the video will sometimes change into a whole new window. I don't click anything specific to make the tab change into a window, it will just do it a few minutes after I open the new tab. Does anyone have a clue on how to prevent this. Thank you!

The font for my tabs (as well as my address bar and firefox button) have become clear. You can see my desktop or whatever through it. I have rebooted, checked if it was my persona, checked if a addon to alter the address bar font would fix it with no luck.

Hokay, I'm trying to breathe deep here and not lose my head.

I am running two computers, side by side. Both are Win7 64-bit... *BOTH* of the machines started to play up tonight. The second machine was running FF locked in a minimised state, and after a few choice curse words and an hour of my life, I was able to google-shoot the problem (finding my way here, and the answer).

This machine, however, is exhibiting the most frustrating behavior. It will not save sessions /tabs/pinned app tabs. It was working fine for well over a year, and decided to poo the bed just now.

To attempt to fix it, as suggested on this site: - I have deleted the .js session restore files in the Profile folder. It didn't help. - I have checked and rechecked and re-saved my settings for browser history and privacy as I have seen on this website, they all appear to be set correctly (Show windows and tabs is selected, and I have elected to keep browser history).

All in all, none of these things have worked. In addition: - I haven't installed any extensions or played with settings. - I have restarted the computer. - I have checked CCleaner and it is not set to fiddle with anything FF related.

It seems strange that both machines play up on the same night, and both are mind-bogglingly frustrating.

Please help!
