After I have opened a page in a new window Firefox after a few secs return to the previous page.

I click on a link in one page to open another page in a new window. This happens and I am brought to the new window, but after 1-3 secs I am brought back to the original window.
To go to the new window I have to move the cursor to the list at the bottom of the screen and click on the entry for the new window.
This behavior started a few weeks ago (say early September).
The problem is consistent.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

My green arrow to return to the previous page has disappeared

The green arrow I use to return to the previous page has disappeared
== This happened ==
Just once or twice

* If, on Windows, in Firefox 3.6 the menu bar is hidden then press and hold the Alt key down or press F10, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear
* Go to "View > Toolbars" and check-mark "Menu Bar" with a click on it to make that permanent. See [[Menu bar is missing]]).
* Make sure that you have the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then see if you can find them in the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window
* If you see the item in the Customize window then drag it back from the Customize window to one of the toolbars.
* If, in "View > Toolbars > Customize", you do not see that item then click the "Restore Default Set" button

Yeah, this seems to be something to do with Google, not your iPhone. A search on that error found this page:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Web%20Search/thread?tid=56a3c4b71b3dc1d9&h l=en
which shows people using lots of browsers on different platforms suffering from it. No definitive solutions though.

Why do the "SHOW THE PREVIOUS PAGE arrows not work on some websites such as when I try to return to the previous page the arrows at the top right of the page are not dark black they are light grey and do nothing---HELPPPP

If a page you go to opens in a new tab, there is no 'back' to go to. If that is the case, just close the tab and you'll be at the page you came from.

When I open a website in a new tab (like a forum) it will start on the last page and at the bottom. So I have to scroll up. Is there a setting for this?

I open my favorite forums website. When I open a thread in a new tab the window starts at the bottom. I have to scroll up to see the top of the thread.

Does it do it if you run Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]? If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.

When I click on a link that opens up automatically in a new window (ie internet banking), it will not load at all.Page remains blank.

Links that open in new windows do not load. The page remains blank. I have downloaded other web browsers and these pages all work with these browsers. I have been using firefox for years and this has only started happening in the last month or so. Is there an update that can fix this? I have also uninstalled and then reinstalled firefox and still the same thing.
There are no error messages, just a picture of a white sheet of paper in the top left hand corner with the writing "search book marks and history". New tabs are working, it's just the new windows that won't load.

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 to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

I have recently download the new pages, but from time to time my computer will revert back to the previous page software what can I do to fix this problem

does anyone have a problem with the new page software? I am currrently running into the same problem with the old pages software re-appearing and any document that I had used with the new update, will not open. The system requires me to attempt to download a new version of page, when the newiest version has aleady been download and has been in operation.
What can I do to fix this problem? I desire to use the new version at all times.
Please help
James

You just have to be particular with which Pages version you are opening the document. use Right click on the document and choose the right version of Pages.

When I surf through a series of pages on a web site how use do I return to the first page quickly?

IE allows you to use 'GO to" on the menu to return to the original page

I now have a solution to the problem I thought I was having. The new Safari 6.0.2 places the browsing history in the form of "tabs" just below the tool bar. You can return to the previous window when you click on the tab. You can also change the use of "tabs" when you select Safari/Preferences/Tabs, if you prefer not to use tabs. Also you can return to the previous page by swiping two fingers across the trackpad as I was informed by "dominic23" in his reply. Problem solved! - Welshgirl01

Firefox won't open mailto links in a new window like it used to...it just opens gmail in the current tab.

I recently upgraded firefox and now whenever I click a mailto link it opens gmail in the current tab rather than in a new window. How can I get it to open email links in a new window.

My MAILTO problem was finally fixed on the June 29, 2012 Firefox version 14 beta 10 release.

Getting back the previous page

Hello,
i'm using a tableview in which the user can sort and scroll etc.
The user can show detail-information for a selected line. When he comes back from the "detail" page i want him to see exactly, what he saw before.
I cannot use a pop-up, as this is forbidden in our portal guidelines.
And the application should be statless.
Anybody has an idea.
Thanks in advance
Edgar Hügle

Hello,
Note down the value of prevselctedrowindex and firstvisiblerowcount into a variable and pass it to the details page or save it in a cookie and when u return to the tableview page, either read the value from the cookie or pass it back from the details page to the tableview page and assign it to the tableView properties.
<htmlb:tableView id               = "tbv_team_members"
                       table            = "//model/pub_it_team_user"
                       design           = "alternating"
                       footerVisible    = "FALSE"
                       visibleFirstRow = "<%= lv_visiblefirstrow %>"
                       selectedRowIndex = "<%= lv_selectedrowindex %>"
                       sort             = "NONE"
                       iterator         = "<%= controller_class %>"
                       selectionMode    = "LINEEDIT"
                       headerText       = "Team - Members"
                       headerVisible    = "TRUE" />

When i am browsing on the internet i cannot reterun anymore to the previous page using the left arrow?

when i am surfing on the net with firefox browser i cannot anymore return to a previous page that i visit using the left arrow!

Sometimes when you click the back button the previous page redirects you forward again. Right-click the back button to use the history list to skip the previous page and go further back in history. If there is no history list, hmmm, it must be something else.

I have just updated my iPad to IOS 8.1.3 when I now try to open the emails nothing comes up and then the app crashes and returns to the home page. What should I do?

I have just updated my iPad to IOS 8.1.3 when I now try to open the emails nothing comes up and then the app crashes and returns to the home page. What should I do?

Since yesterday morning about 11:00 I have been having TERRIBLE email problems on this iPad 3G. Email comes in (I hear the sound) but nothing displays -- no folders, no content, no nothing in e-mail. The blank email screen shows up and then disappears after about 10 seconds, taking me back to the Home Screen.
Right now, the only way I can see email on this device is to log onto AOL via the AOL app.
I have been doing a lot of online reading about the problem. It has to do with iOS 8.1.3 and it affects older iPads and iPhones. I'm having no problems on my iPod touch, which -- fortunately -- is so old it cannot update its iOS 6.
I waited to update the iOS on this iPad until iOS 8 was "mature." That was about 2 weeks ago.
Anybody know know if Apple is aware? working on a solution?

It's so annoying!! I have created a new Apple ID but after I click verify it just goes back to the previous page!!! It''s really frustrating I have tried for more than 4H, and the problem is not about the apple ID. I can download apps with the apple ID, which means IMessage is the problem! I restarted my iPad, I logged in and out of the apple ID in the store, AND YET IT STILL WON'T WORK, PLEASE HELP!

Hi Vmanfromusa!
It sounds like you are having an issue with activating your iMessage app on your iPad. An article outlining some troubleshooting steps for this issue can be found here:
