I love the tiles of my most used pages which come up when I open a new tab. 9 used to show up but now there are only 3. How can I get the others back.

I have explored the suggested solution pages but if the answer was there I did not understand it. I have clicked on the cog at the top right hand corner of the page and changed from Enhanced to Classic, but that did not give me my 9 tiles back. I shall be most grateful if one of you folk with more savy can help me. Lynette

Chosen solution

That was a change in Firefox 33.0, where the "tiles" are larger and of a fixed size. To see more tiles zoom out as necessary to see all your tiles.

To really "fix it" you'll need an add-on such as New Tab Tools. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-tools/

Or the Stylish add-on along with the appropriate User Style. https://userstyles.org/styles/106326/shrink-new-tab-thumbnails

Is the page zoomed in? press Ctrl + 0 while you're on the page and see if it zooms out.

You can zoom out the about:newtab page to resize the tiles.

  • View > Zoom > Zoom Out; Ctrl and +

This will affect all elements on the page, so text get smaller as well. Toggle the browser.newtab.preload pref on the about:config page in case of issues with zooming the about:newtab page.

You can look at this extension:
