3 finger swipe for web navigation?

in Snow Leopard i used to use a 3 finger swipe to navigate forward or backwards on the web. I cannot seem to find an option to do this any more?
is there any other shortcuts to navigate the web browser? i dont like having to go up and click the back button every time.

Finger swipe for internet pages

Just changed from lion to Maverick OS. Lost my favorite feature the finger swipe from web page forward and back. Does Maverick have this feature?

in system preference under mouse or touch thingy you get visuals of all the gestures is the one you are looking for missing there?

No two finger swipe for navigating files in Lion?

I use the track pad and just updated to Lion - which has some great features. But I while I can two finger swipe on Safari pages to go back and forth, I don't seem to be able to do that now when going through my files in Finder....
Am I missing something or is this the way it is now?....
Any help would be appreciated!

check your gestures settings in system preferences>trackpad>more gestures tab

Upgraded to Lion & can no longer finger swipe for/backwards between pages. Is there a fix for this?

Title says it all. I just upgraded to Mac OS X Lion, and can no longer use a finger swipe, whether one or 2 fingered, to move backwards an forwards between pages. I can still do so in Safari, but not in Firefox 5.01, my preferred browser, any longer. Doesn't matter if I try using one, two or more fingers
Is there a fix for this? Thank you.

If you download this program http://blog.boastr.net/?page_id=1722 (better touch tool), you can make your own swipe gestures.
However, I have been able to three-finger swipe forward and back on webpages by going to ''system preferences'' > ''trackpad settings'' > ''more gestures''
and checking the box at ''"swipe between pages"'' and selecting ''swipe left/right with 3 fingers''

Using animated character states for web navigation

Hello everyone, can someone please post some links to Adobe Edge samples that are using character/ personality +small animation+ web navigation. This is just an approximate example I am searching for: a cartoon character is holding a sign, on roll over or on press state the sign expands and shows navigation elements to other pages of the website. Has anything like this has been done using Adobe Edge? I can't even find one example of such interactivity, can you believe this?? I remember when I was heavy into Flash (10 year ago) there was a lots of samples of such web navigation elements, whether they were usability friendly it is another question, but wanted to see if anyone has seen a resent implementation of similar concept online using Adobe Edge. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

newguy-
Have you look on youtube.com ? I recall a tutorial that had a design, when rolled over did something and then opened to another page (It didn't open a navigation like you are wanting but it could be a start.
As far as doing something like this in Edge, it should be quite simple to do. You can set triggers to call other items on the stage; so you could create an animation and on mouseOver, have it expand and call a navigation "symbol" that could appear with all working links.
Setting the links is easy - I'm working on a site that has the navigation buttons "Appear" from under a design at the beginning of the animation and are linked to seperate pages within the site.

No two-finger swipe for month, year, day in iCal

I can't use a two-finger swipe to switch forward or back in iCal in day, month, or year view, only week. How can I get it to do this in the other views?

Nemo,
System Preferences...>Mouse>More Gestures will influence your "two-finger" swipe choices. If you have a Trackpad, choose that instead of Mouse in System Preferences.
Swiping is only available in the Calendar Day/Week views. Monthly changes are made by scrolling, and Year view is changed by clicking on the < > arrows surrounding the word "Today" on the top left side of the Year window.

Trackpad wont do 2 finger swipe for my wife, fine for me?

I just bought a new imac with a magic trackpad. When I do a 2 finger swipe it works fine but when my wife tries it, it doesn't work. I watched closely to make sure both fingers were making contact. She seems to be doing it correctly. This was just trying to move from one screen of Launchpad to the other, nothing weird in a software.

I talked to a female friend and she had the same problem. A genius told her it might be the lotion on her hands...

2 finger swipe for Notifications pane?

Is it possible to configure this action for Magic Mouse? This is how I view the pane with my MBP's trackpad.

You now have to swipe to the right to go back. Most scrolling behavior is reverse from what you've been used to now.

Magic Mouse One-Finger Swipe Works for one user but not the other

For the main account on my iMac, I can use a single finger swipe to move back and forward within Chrome. However the second user (also an administrator) cannot use this setting and must instead use the two finger swipe in settings. Both settings are identical but the Chrome browser wont recognize the single finger swipe for the second user. The gesture works fine in Safari, but not Chrome. Any suggestions?

3 Finger Swipe

So I received my brand new 15" MBP yesterday. I opened it and set it up. Then when I got home I migrated all the data and settings from my 12" PB with 10.4.11.
My problem is that with the first account I set up works fine with the 3 finger swipe for navigation. With my migrated account it does not. All the other multitouch features work in the migrated account.
Any ideas of where I could find the preference or what I need to delete?
I know that migrating from a PPC to an Intel isn't seemless but most of my stuff seemed to work besides this.

check in system preferences first to make sure that feature is on (i assume multi touch can be turned on and off i have not gotten to try it yet and am not going be getting a new machine for a while). if it is on you may have to go through and start messing with plists in you library but i have no ideas which ones and its not something you want to randomly go in a screw around with

2 finger swipe in Safari/iTunes

I have a late 2007 Macbook Pro with 10.6.2.
As you know it has 2 finger scrolling, but no 3 finger swiping
But now I was thinking, it registers 2 finger horizontal scrolling, shouldn't it be able to switch that to a swipe?
So I mean that if I do a 2 finger swipe in Safari, it goes to the previous/next page and in iTunes it goes to the previous/next song.
Thanks!

There is no option to use 2 finger swipe for page browsing or iTunes
Just the horizontal scrolling
But I think you think I have a Macbook Pro who is able to do 3 finger swiping, but that's not true, the maximum number of fingers this one can detect is only 2
That's why I'm asking if I can use a 2 finger swipe for these abilities

2 finger swipe in mission control instead of 3 finger

I have an old white macbook which is not able to use 3-finger gestures. So I cannot swipe between the different desktops in mission control. I know that I can use the alt key and then press a desktop of choice or a keyboard shortcut but I would prefer to use the trackpad.
Therefore i ask: Is it possible to use 2 finger swipe in mission control to switch between desktops instead of 3 fingers?

Where did the swipe gestures for web browsers go?

If you configure your trackpad settings for "Swipe between pages" TO "two or three fingers" you'll get the functionality back on firefox. To also correct the issue on Magic Mouse, if you happen to own one, configure the same setting to: "one or two fingers" under Mouse settings.
