Firefox on mac os x right click

[daweeze02]

This has really been annoying me. When I right click in firefox on my mac I cannot hit the "T" or "W" for new tab or for new window. Instead I have to move the mouse to the option and click on it. Does anyone know how to fix this because it drive me nuts.

What I mean is there are no underlined letters like in windows.

I recommend to use the keyboard shortcuts. Command-T, respectively Command-N. If you still want to use the context menu, you can navigate with the arrow and enter key.

Ya I know but what if I am right clicking on a bunch of different links and just want to hit the "t" key. I dont want to have to use the arrow and enter key. Like in windows you can right click and hit 't" to open the link in a tab.

Middle click (command-click).

Dont think that is it. I mean in the right click menu on any mac program, the options in the context menu, none of them have a letter underlined that correspond to that option. Like New Folder has a F underlined. New Tab has the T underlined etc etc.

My post just mentioned how to open a link in a new tab. I don't know about your issue and don't have any of my Macs around to try it.

I see that works for new tabs, very cool. Just wish the macs gave you the letter shortcuts for all right click menus. But yes thats solves that issue just in a different way.
