Hi JP, what action are you taking to "move to another page"?

Any time you call up a new tab in your current Firefox window -- for example, by clicking the + button on the tab bar or pressing Command+T -- Firefox will display the default new tab page. You can make the new tab page blank, but it will still be a Firefox tab, not your desktop.

Similarly, any time you call up a new window -- for example, by pressing Command+N -- Firefox will display your home page in that window.

I have the feeling you're trying to do something else...

Hi, My explanation is probably wrong. I use a MacPro Air. The way I get another screen, or window, is that I swipe to the left with four fingers, and get a new desktop.

Before Firsfox, which I prefer, I used to open Mail, then swipe left with four fingers and I would get a new desktop. I would then open Chrome so that I could switch from mail to Chrome. If I wanted to use another applications, and have easy access, I would swipe left to another screen and open Word for instance.

Now if I open Firefox on the second screen, and switch to another screen, i have Firefox again. if I swipe left for another window, there's Firefox again.

Don't know if that makes sense, but I'm 80 and have been using Mac since 1984, but not as swift as I used to be I guess.....

Thanks for trying to help

Now, with Firefox, even if i

I've only played with a Mac for a few hours, so I'm not familiar with that gesture. Possibly Firefox is intercepting it and you're staying on the same screen? Hopefully a person who uses the Mac more can explain what's happening and how to work around it.
