I installed the add on and it shows under the adds on but I can't view it and it keeps saying I have to paste the button to the panel. What button? I don't see anything different about my toolbar.

I changed browser.newtab.url to about:newtab, but everytime I reboot my computer it gets back to about:blank. How can I set the about:newtab to my perm tab page adress when I open a new tabpage?

My latest firefox update includes a search bar IN THE TAB STRIP on top of the page (not the one in the navigation toolbar). It takes up too much space for the tabs and it is useless (since there is already a search bar below it in the navigation toolbar). How do I remove it?

Please help! Looks like Mozilla customer service can not help me at all!!!!!! I need to know why I can not open a link to a new window. I can only open in my tab. I hate it. I try dragging the tab out to make a new window but it will not go no where help help help..please someone..! I try everything!

I am now having some trouble with my address bar. It used to be when I typed something besides a URL link, Firefox would take me to Google and a search page would show up. Now, for whatever reason, it takes me directly to a page in question, ala clicking on the "I Feel Lucky" button on Google or it takes me to a page that says "This Address Isn't valid." Is there any way around this?

On another note, there also used to be an option for Firefox where you could completely reset Firefox to the default settings at the cost of some add-ons. That would be my only solution, except I can't find it anywhere on Firefox!

I did a FF21 reset and now the FF tabs work differently. I use XP-Pro

If I open more than one FF tab they are all minimized into one group tab at the bottom instead of minimized in separate tabs at the bottom like they previously were. If I maximize just one, they all show up as separate tabs all on the same top bar. How do I "ungroup" them so they act independently like all the non FF tabs that I also have minimized (ie IE8 tabs, Music, Word, etc.)?

Not all the time but quit often when I am switching from tab to tab, the one I am selecting will open in a new window. I HATE THAT! I want my tab's to STAY in the window I select. If I want them in a new window I will purposefully open a new window for them. But to have it just randomly open a tab in a new window just because I selected that tab is irritating as hell!!!!!!!!

Therefore, how do I set it so it will not do that anymore?

I have a Mac OS X, version 10.6.8. I'm using Firefox 21.0. I have the box checked to warn me when closing multiple tabs. It does not. Why? Is there anything I can do to make it work correctly? Any information I've been able to find on the internet is for other versions of Firefox and is of no help to me.

I have seen a similar topic but the responses do not help. I previously did not have session manager installed so I am unable to restore to an earlier date. When I open Firefox I have some script my computer will not respond to and the message I get is:

script: resource: //app/modules/tabview/utils.jsm:617

Would be grateful for answers in how to resolve this issue as I use this function enormously.

Kind regards,

Got hijacked by Delta Search. Successfully removed all Delta extensions, add-ons, deleted user.js file that Delta created, and probably a couple other things done, too. Still left with the about:config not saving the reset to default (about:newtab) that I make to browser.newtab.url. Works fine while Firefox is still open, but reverts back to "userset" and then empty value when Firefox is restarted. It originally had Delta settings there, so I don't get why it got rid of Delta in the value for browser.newtab.url but won't permanently save back to the default so that I can have the quick tabs on each new page.

I am new to firefox and a lot of learning to take in.we had IE8 with lots of problems so went to firefox.gets confusing for us at times as we don't know a lot about computers.don't know how to get back of browser,things we had before:eg. page,i did get print,cut,copy,paste ok.don't have internet options on browser..but what really is frustrating,i have read many times how to get a blank page up when you click on a new tab above add.bar.all we get is this box that says.. server not found..with a bunch of foreign symbols.im tired of looking.suggestions? please tell us in easy terms.tks so much..we are using firefox mozilla 18.01 tks cheryl

all my tab's that I've been working with for the last few weeks now have been set to (new tab) on the current tab group. Then for the other tab groups there are no more tabs (auto opens preset search or homepage) I've not changed ANY settings EVER regarding tabs. I've not installed any Addon's recently either.

(new tab) | (new tab) | (new tab) | where once I had a row if websites open.

I installed Divx and accidentally clicked "please make Bing.com my default browser".

Now I have an issue that every time I open a new tab it defaults to bing.com.

I have uninstalled divx, started firefox in fail safe mode (no plugins or extensions), and I have changed about:config values: browser.newtab.url = about:newtab browser.startup.homepage;about:newtab = about:newtab and the problem still persists!

How do I get back to my normal newtab format?

A previous version of firefox added a little gap above the tabs when in full screen mode. This prevented the toolbar from appearing when moving the cursor over the tabs. However, in recent versions, this "gap" has been removed. So now, when I try to change tabs my moving my mouse to the top of the screen, the menu bar appears, delaying the process of changing tabs.

It's really annoying - I don't know why this feature was removed.

(This may be particular to firefox on OS X)

Thanks

This is REALLY getting me frustrated! What is "Hibernate this Group"? Why can't I find any information on it? Why can't I get groups back that have been accidentally "hibernated"? There is a "moon" symbol on my upper right screen that says "Hibernate this Group" and I don't know what it does or how it works! AND I accidentally "hibernated" a group when I clicked on it too long and a bunch of "zzz's" showed up and then it was GONE! How do I get it all back? And why isn't there a tech center I can contact to help with this???

I accidentally put one of my tabbed groups into hibernate. HOW do I get it back? There were about 10-12 tabs open in there and I have NO idea how to get them back! This has happened before but it was no biggie, this time there were some important tabs that I do not remember what they all exactly were! Somehow I clicked the tabbed group and bunch of "zzz's" appeared and then when I went to click off, my group disappeared! Does ANYONE know how to correct this?

After a computer restart I started a new session without restoring the tabs from the previous session. Is there a way to restore those tabs without selecting each one from History ?

SUPPOSEDLY this issue was solved; it wasn't, not by any of the answerers. I solved it. I tried Search Reset 0.2 and found that it did NOTHING. Same problem: Every time you open a new tab, Bing opens the accursed thing (I blame Mozilla because when I installed the package I got from their site, it informed me during installation that it was optimized for Bing and I LOATHE Bing and was pissed because no non-Bing alternative was offered), NOT the default New Tab page with recently used page panes on it. I removed a disabled toolbar incompatible with this newer version of Firefox, uTorrent Community Toolbar, and Webroot toolbar (keep in mind that the Search Reset is supposed to be a No Restart Required add-on). I restarted, opened a new tab, and was gratified to see NO BING BULLCRAP.

One might argue that this was covered and closed already. Not exactly, not specifically. Generalities are NO GOOD for specific problems. I can't explain WHY this worked, because NONE of the toolbars had anything to do with Bing, and none of the toolbars in question had been active (uTorrent Community Toolbar had been removed in Control Panel> Programs & Features, yet still showed up in Firefox's toolbars list; this seems to happen with Firefox sometimes).

I don't need an answer...NOW, but I think a few others might find this works for them. For a variety of reasons, not everyone will get the same results, or even SEE this problem on their systems. I would have added this to the question that didn't satisfy me, but someone CLOSED it.

I accidentally closed Firefox without closing a window that spawned when I logged out of an email client, and now loading up Firefox just brings me to that particular window. I opened up sessionstore.bak to have a look and saw that all my old tabs were still in there, but I can't figure out for the life of me which lines I need to remove to get my old tabs back (I had about 20 - 30 open).

I backed up the .bak and fiddled around with it, but the best I've been able to get is Firefox loading up my homepage instead of my old tabs. I'd appreciate any suggestions, I've spent the last hour trying to Google up a solution or blunder through it myself.

I love firefox, but may have to return to chrome. Chrome restored my tabs everytime without fail, where as firefox does so occaisonally when shut down properly and never does if the computer restarts itself or some type of improper closing occurs. Why is this? Is there an addon to make firefox remember tabs?
