Some sites have popup’s that open a new browser window when browsing their site. Annoying, and you can block it. But what about web apps or sites that have legit pop up windows? You can open these windows in tabs instead!
To set this up, open Terminal and type in the following:
defaults write com.apple.Safari TargetedClicksCreateTabs -bool true
Hit enter and quit Safari. When restarting Safari, your windows will open in tabs instead!
To revert back, in Termina, type:
defaults write com.apple.Safari TargetedClicksCreateTabs -bool false
Quit Safari and restart…

Hi it`s me again,
I just found out that if you press Shift and apple menu, the force quit option is changing to
force quit +application name which is selected.
So if Firefox is not responding and you press shift+ open apple menu, you will see an option Force Firefox Quit or something like this. You can also try, but i`m sure this was mentioned before, to hit ALT+ Apple Menu and you will see other helpful Commands.
I hope this helped anyone.
Bye
