Back Button not working in FireFox 4

Is anyone else having trouble with the back and forward buttons not working in FireFox 4? I installed 4 on an XP desktop and a Vista 64 laptop, and the forward and back buttons don't work on either installation. Does anyone know a fix for this? I tried deleting the "places" files in the profile and that does not help.

I am having a problem with the back button also in Firefox 4. Firefox forgets the 1st page in any new session or tab. If I open a tab to say bbc.com and navigate to guardian.com I can't click the back button to get back to bbc.com.

  • Help button not working on firefox.How to fix?

    help button not working.

    Hello,
    Lets give Firefox some Tuneup.
    The Refresh feature (called "Reset" in older Firefox versions) can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your bookmarks, history, passwords, cookies, and other essential information.
    '''''Note:''' When you use this feature, you will lose any extensions, toolbar customizations, and some preferences.'' See the [[Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings]] article for more information.
    To Refresh Firefox:
    # Open the Troubleshooting Information page using one of these methods:
    #*Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Troubleshooting Information''. A new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
    #*If you're unable to access the Help menu, type '''about:support''' in your address bar to bring up the Troubleshooting Information page.
    #At the top right corner of the page, you should see a button that says "Refresh Firefox" ("Reset Firefox" in older Firefox versions). Click on it.
    #Firefox will close. After the refresh process is completed, Firefox will show a window with the information that is imported.
    #Click Finish and Firefox will reopen.
    Did this fix the problem? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Javascript "Play Video" button not working in Firefox

    When clicking on "play video" (java), QuickTime will not open while using firefox. It does work in Google Chrome and IE. I have tried using a clean user profile & allowing popups, and I made sure the Java and QuickTime addons were working and up to date.
    The problem is with twit.tv/twit. Clicking the "Live" link on google.com does play the live stream, but the actual Java buttons are not working in Firefox.
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://twit.tv/twit

    Make sure that you do not block [[JavaScript]]
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

  • Navigation (Back/Forward) buttons not working in Firefox

    I'm tring to put together a Browser Based help guide, and for the most part it's working as intended... except for the navigation buttons within the help guide themselves. By that I mean...
    Those guys. The way I would assume they work is that they provide back/forward navigation between topics as you move through the guide, but they don't seem to be functional. As in, they do nothing, ever. They don't even act clickable.
    (The forward and back buttons provided by my browser do seem to work, but I'd like to get these working, as well.)
    We're testing mostly in Firefox 13; we've also tried IE 9, and the buttons work correctly. Any ideas?
    (output is from RH9, for the record)

    Hi there
    It's odd that these would work fine in IE. To my knowledge, they aren't there to navigate from visited topic to visited topic and back. Unless I'm mistaken, they are there to traverse one or more Browse Sequences that have been defined.
    Cheers... Rick

  • After upgrade to Firefox 10; hompeage won't load, back button not working, bookmark toolbar not loading

    After upgrading my mac to Firefox 10 my homepage doesn't load, the back button doesn't work, there is no history in the URL bar (or any URL showing at all come to that), bookmark toolbar doesn't show unless I press CTRL and right click, none of my bookmarks are showing the saved login information...... HELP!!!! its driving me mad!

    I ended up purging the entire system of Firefox including the cache because I couldn't update two of the plug ins. I installed Firefox again but still don't have
    a bookmark bar.
    Importing bookmarks from Safari is no longer a couple of clicks. First I had to export the file from Safari, and it installed on a dropdown menu. That's too much like Internet Explorer. At least with IE you can choose which version to use.
    Everything I liked on Firefox 9 is gone in Firefox 10...or at least I can't find it! :D

  • Browser back button not working with ADF Application integrated with SSO

    I have integrated an adf application with Oracle SSO Authentication. Application is running fine.
    Though, while navigating between pages, using browser back button , it is not redirecting the url properly
    Should Redirect it to : http://<hostname>:<port>/<contex-root>/<servlet>/<id>
    Presently Redirecting it to :http://<hostname>:<port>/<contex-root>
    As, directory browsing is not allowed, there is Error 403--Forbidden .
    Can anybody tell what changes needs to be made to make browser back button work.

    In some of the documentation I have read, they have mentioned that using the back button in a browser doesn't work too well with any JSF type of application (not just ADF and Jdeveloper apps).
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15051_01/web.1111/b31974/web_form.htm#CFHHJGJH
    Instead, they suggest using buttons on the form.
    There is a video on using navigation between forms that may be of value: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsPtmRID5XI&feature=plcp

  • Soical buttons not working in firefox & Chrome but OK in Safari

    My webiste has been up and running for a month now but I've now noticed (among an array of other Muse bugs... aaaggghhh) that the 'Facebook Recommend and the 'Pin it' social widget buttons don't work in Firefox and Chrome but they do in Safari?
    http://www.thinksmartresumes.com.au/parthorus-resumes-design.html (freebie tab)
    Also on this page, the 'LinkedIn share' button works fine in Safari and Chrome but not in Firefox? See screen shots...
    The Muse Team (ie Danni Beaumont) clearly state in all the tutorial videos that they guarantee multi-platform user friendly code.... I spend half my day finding bugs between different browsers? Not happy.

    I am having similar issues - the URL that the plugin insists it wants to have complete (with http:// at the front) is being concatenated with another "http://" when it is rendered on the page.
    This is the URL I have in the properties for the button:
    But this is the URL that shows up in the Share dialog:
    If I take the http:// OFF the property for the button (so, I start with "www...."), the widget doesn't render.  I get an error that the thumbnail can't draw. 
    Yes, annoying. 

  • Back swipe and back button not working in iTunes store

    I am running a 3 year old Mac mini with a Mac bluetooth mouse.  I have OS 10.10.2 installed.  With the latest version of iTunes 12.1.0.50 I stated having the following problem.  I go into iTunes store and see the catalogue page for either movies or songs, I click on either a song or movie that I'm interested in and I get the detail page for that entry.  I then either single finger back swipe on the mouse or use the back button and I return to the catalogue page, but it is blank.  I have to click on the "iTunes store" button in order to get the catalogue page refreshed.  I also don't seem to be able to back swipe in iPhoto to move from one picture to another, but I can swipe in Aperture. I should also note that I'm running Windows 8 under Parallels 10.1.3
    How do I fix this? 

    Fixed.  Tried a lot different things but the ones that seems to have worked is going in Preferences>Advanced and hitting the Reset cache button.  Though I'm not sure it is necessary it never hurts to do a restart.  

  • Back button not working in iTunes 11

    The "Back" button in iTunes 11.1 doesn't work correctly. It doesn't go back to previous screen, but farther back, so that with each "Back" you have to navigate again to where you were.
    For example, if you are viewing "See All Songs" of a particular song from a search, and thten go back, it goes back to the initial search, not the "See All Songs" view you were just on.

    Fixed.  Tried a lot different things but the ones that seems to have worked is going in Preferences>Advanced and hitting the Reset cache button.  Though I'm not sure it is necessary it never hurts to do a restart.  

  • IE8 back button not working in Login page

    Hello all,
    I have a problem. When I go from one page to a Login page, Back button on IE(my IE version is 8) doesn't work. I use theme 16 - Dark Blue, APEX version - 4.0.2.00.07. Is that a problem from APEX or the theme, or the problem is in IE browser? And if the problem is in the browser, is there any way to fix that?

    In my experience you should not be using the browser buttons when using an Apex app as it can srew with session state etc. You should put navigation buttons in your applications with appropriate branches.

  • The Downloads Clear List Button Not Working In Firefox 19.0

    Hello,
    After upgrading Firefox to version 19.0 today, I noticed that the Downloads Clear List Button does not work & is always grayed/greyed out, and so you can not clear all downloads; and so you have to remove them each one-at-a-time.
    I did not have this problem until upgrading to version 19.0

  • AS3 Code Snippet (url button) not working in firefox

    Hi,
    This code works fine for my flash site:
    ovbutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage_5);
    function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage_5(event:MouseEvent):void
              navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.starnavigation.ca/vision.html"), "_self");
    However, within firefox (7.0.1), once the back button is pressed the button does nothing. Works great with every other browser. It basically only works once, until I reload the page. Any ideas???

    Check if you have set "allowScriptAccess" to "allways".
    If you embed flash like this,
    <object classid=”clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000″
    codebase=”http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0″ width=”700″
    height=”322″>
    <param name=”movie” value=”intro.htm”>
    <param name=”quality” value=”high”>
    <embed src=”intro.htm” quality=”high”
    pluginspage=”http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”700″
    height=”322″></embed>
    </object>
    you have to add it in two places: one is for IE and other for FF, Opera, chrome..
    <object classid=”clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000″

  • "back button" not working

    The back button on Firefox 4 isn't working on my PC (Windows 7). I've tried opening Tools and Add-ons, and disabling the Java and Skype add-ons and restarting Firefox, but I still have the problem

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Back button not working also voice control keeps ringing out on its own

    Hi i have had a new back button put in and its still doing the same thing what else could it be

    It's crazy right? I was going to post something about how I got it fixed, in a few days. But I'll let ya know:
    After getting the run around at the Apple Store, telling me to get a refurbished phone, i went to a local game store based on word of mouth that the man who owns the store fixes iphones.
    He took a look at it and replaced the dock connector and ribbon. He showed it to me and guess what? it was beginning to rust. I suspect the rust messed with the connectors and overall messed with my phone including the home button. Anyways he replaced it with a brand new one and voila! everything works fine. in fact, i've noticed - no kidding here - that my phone is performing better.
    anyways, i never got water near or in my phone but truth it, humidity and dust etc can cause a tiny amount of rust to build up over months and years. iphones are not perfect, so get it checked. it's a hardware issue most likely.
