Why can I not open a new tab in the new Firefox? (via the + sign or Ctrl T) க்கான சமீபத்திய பதில்கள்https://support.mozilla.org/ta/questions/9981482014-05-18T12:32:03-07:00"This is called the "throbber" and I'm not sure how to move it from its normal per-tab position."

</p><p>That's too bad. I guess I was one of only a small hand full of people that found putting the throbber (didn't know what it was called) to the far right a nice feature, otherwise I would guess FF would have kept that option.

I guess what through me is that in the previous versions of FF I could put the "+" sign above the tool bar all the way to the right. Just like you see it in the Customize view (only lighter in color).
It now appears that I can only put this icon IN the tool bar where the icon changes to read "NEW TAB". Is that right? No way to put it above the tool bar?
Only problem with this new approach is that it reduces the real estate in the tool bar and thus shrinks the search field and the url field just a little bit more.
Wish FF hadn't made such dramatic changes that require adding another addon to get things like Reload, Stop, cut paste, etc back.
What about one more past customization that allowed us to put the "loading" circle to the right. Were did that go? I liked it because it made it easier to quickly glance up to see if a web page or link is loading or still loading. To me, this was more convenient than looking up at all the tabs that are opened to see which one has the loading icon running.

It's a little hard to see on the background graphic. That "+" represents the new tab button, and it should slide over next to the last tab after you exit Customize mode.

Ok I did what you suggested above and now the FF icon (the 3 horizontal lines) is working again...thanks, and I've re-done the other Icons I like at the tool bar, but when I open Customize, there still is no "+" sign that I can drag to the upper right and as before, the "+" sign by each tab disappears while in Customize.
Even if I restart in SafeMode, there still isn't a "+" sign in Customize to drag and like in normal mode the "+" sign disappears while in SafeMode.
Well at least I got the FF icon working.
Thanks for trying to help.

Strange.
</p><p>First... I restarted in SafeMode (I had to use the Shift key while opening FF). Just as before the "+" sign disappears while in Customize.
</p><p>Second... I went to Appearance but I only have one theme (the Default theme). So there was nothing to switch back too.
</p><p>Third... I renamed the localstore.rdf and restarted FF. No difference other than my menu (File, Edit, View, History, etc etc) was not there till I restored the current localstore.rdf.
</p><p>Fourth... I opened about:config and saved the contents of browser.uiCustomization.state and then deleted everything and saved and rebooted in to FF. No change there either. When I went back to browser.uiCustomization.state everything appears to have been rebuilt.
</p><p>Kind of getting crazy...as you know I had already gotten to the point where I just reset FF so I can't see that doing it again would help.
</p><p>Thanks for the efforts.

When I open Customize and look in "Additional Tools and Features" there is no available "+" sign that I can then drag to the far right.
Also when I open Customize, the "+" sign by each tab goes away and only re-appears when I exit out of Customize.
Once I exit out of Customize "+" sign return next to each tab, but I can't drag one to the right.

I reset FF and now the "+" sign is back next to each tab, but I still don't see the "+" sign when I open the Customize screen to drag it to the right like you showed in your example. Are you using the latest version (29.0.1)?
Also, In previous versions I was able to put the icon that shows that a web page is loading next to the "+" sign on the right side of FF, rather than have it shown in each tab.
For me it made it easier to be able to glance up to the right and see if the web page is loading rather than looking for the tab that is loading in the group of tabs that were open. Is that option also removed? If so I wish they would bring some of these features back.
