Back shortcut doesn't work

Back shortcut (the cmd+[ and cmd+]) only works when History menu is open, on MacBook Pro, and not when History menu is closed, same for forward.
I have my Logitech mouse set in such a way that the back button sends a keystroke equivalent of cmd+[. When I press the back button on my mouse, the History menu item highlights blue as if shortcut has been accepted but nothing happens.
If I open History menu item with my mouse's left click and then press the back button, the back action happens and previous page loads and History menu closes.
Of course I could press cmd+left/right arrow (which works) but I couldn't use back with my mouse then. I have the cmd+[ shortcut set because it is system wide shortcut whereas cmd+left arrow sometimes performs different action or none at all (it has no effect in Finder for example).
So the expected result is that the cmd+[ shortcut actually performs action and doesn't just give visual feedback without action.

This is no longer actual. I've managed to set the settings to the default ones by deleting a shortcut plist file in the library. Thanks for viewing anyway.

Back Button Doesn't Work on Some Websites

How come my Back Button Doesn't Work on Some Websites? It just keeps redisplaying the same page over and over. Example:
http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/front

Back button behaviour can be pretty wierd. I usually use the keyboard combination, but for some reason it doesn't work on PDF's and I have to end up using the graphical back button.
There are some websites out there that for some reason or another break the Back button's behaviour. Sometimes I have to hold down the mouse button to get the back button menu in order to work around that problem.
In another case there was this page in Amazon that wouldn't allow me to go back to. Everytime I went to that page the browser to automatically kick me to the next page. I had to disable javascript to work around that problem.

I have Iphone 4 it was work fine in my country (bahrain) i went to UK and i change sim card to O2 and when i came back it doesn't work in my country i think because i update the carrier in Uk its my carrier now 10.0 and the others in my country is 9.0

We had the same problem, but figure out the solution.
You MUST have at least 1 song added to your ITUNE! After you add a free song, then everything else should work as normal!
Hope this helps!

HT1338 I'm trying to print a document fro safari and the print command is at the bottom of the page and not visible. I can't move it up and the print command shortcut doesn't work. How do I print this document.

I'm trying to print a document from safari and the print command is at the bottom of the page and I can't move it up. The print command shortcut doesn't work and I would like to know how I can print this document.

Why do we have to install 2 add ins for something that should be built in? Please add this to the next version or an update to this one even. We should see the full path of a bookmark when we search for it. Show Parent Folder alone isn't enough if you have sub folders, so I installed Go Parent Folder as well in case of sub folders.

Camera app (back + flash) doesn't work

Hey to all of you,
for one day now my back camera doesn't work anymore. The screen is just black. The front camera works normally. I couldn't choose the flash light app either in the swipe up menue. I just updatet my software to the newest one. The phone didn't fall down or anything similar.
Is there anything you can help me with? Thanks in advance for your help. I miss the camera already!
Kind regards,
Julius

FIX FOR REAR CAMERA AND FLASHLIGHT!!!
I also had the same flash and rear camera problems as everyone else but I figured it was a software problem.
To fix the flash/flashlight, simply download the flashlight app. The one everyone used before iOS 7. The flash should work immediately.
To fix the rear camera go to Settings > General > Restrictions. Enable restrictions and turn the Camera off, then take the restriction off. Check your camera, it should work immediately.
Hope this answers a lot of questions and saves a bunch of money due to Apple's failures.
Cheers,
Tim

The back button doesn't work for some websites after downloading version 4.0

I recently downloaded firefox version 4.0. Upon downloading it I had a few issues occur with my browser. One issue was that all of my bookmarks that were on my toolbar disappeared. Also, when I visit a website and am browsing through it, if I want to go back to a previous page the back button doesn't work properly. Instead of sending me back to the previous page I was viewing it sends me all the way back to the home page or wherever I started on that website. This problem basically affects all websites that I visit. I would like to uninstall the new version of firefox and just go back to my old one if that's possible? Thanks

To respond to your comments first of all, the Bookmarks toolbar has been removed in Firefox 4.0
The back button should work as it normally does, but you can also right click it and select it from the list.
To revert to a previous version of Firefox, download v3.6.16 from here: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.16]
Then uninstall Mozilla Firefox 4.0 choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc.
Finally run the Firefox installation file you downloaded earlier.

With certain website, the 'back' key doesn't work.

With several sites, my 'back' key doesn't work

This only happens for the 'back' button and only occasionally. Sometimes, pressing the 'back' button repeatedly will work, usually I have close and restart Firefox.

Quit shortcut doesn't work

The 'Command-Q' shortcut doesn't work on a Macbbook pro, with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. All the other Command based shortcuts work (close window, etc) as well as the Q key itself. Tried resetting the keyboard shortcuts in System Preferences but no go. Any ideas?

Do you have keyboard maestro installed >>> cmd q does not close any program anymore

Keyboard shortcuts doesn't work with iOS 6.1.3

Since I've upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS 6.1.3, my keybord's shortcuts doesn't work.
Can you help me?Key

HI boombadabum,
I understand that you are having issues with keyboard shortcuts with a custom keyboard layout.
I also understand that when you press the shortcuts that the menu blinks like it is working, but nothing actually happens.
As a work around, you may be able to map them out with this add on[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/customizable-shortcuts/]

Language input switching shortcut doesn't work

Hi! I always use command-space to switch between English and Chinese (Cangjie) input (having disabled this shortcut for Spotlight), but all of a sudden it stops working. I know the command key works and the space bar works, but when I press command-space it does nothing. I have to click on the little language flag to switch language. I also tried restarting the mini.
There is also something weird about the Chinese inputting now but I'll ask that in another post.
Thanks!

I've been having a similar problem, but a little more elaborate.
It started with my Finder switching on its own from US (my default) keyboard input to Hebrew. I would just switch back using the shortcut (command+space bar), a shortcut I have been using for years without problems. Now the shortcut is giving me problems, and sometimes doesn't work, as steveappleotp describes.
While in Safari, the shortcut failed to work. I checked my System Preferences for language input and nothing had changed. When I used the mouse to open the language input menu, 3 of the 6 languages were grayed out. But this doesn't happen consistently. All of a sudden everything is okay and I don't know how to recreate the problem.
Thought I would post this here as it's recent and related, but maybe I should start another thread.
Thanks.

CMD+ any shortcut doesn't work in Safari after upgrading to Yosemite

After upgrading from Mavericks to OS X Yosemite 10.10 not a single CMD+ shortcut works?!
For example CMD+tab works (switching between apps), ctrl+tab works (switching between tabs), but none of these work: CMD+W, CMD+Q, CMD+F, CMD+C, CMD+X, CMD+P...
They all work perfectly fine in all other apps. It's just Safari.
Does anyone have any idea why and how to fix this?

I have a similar pb :
CMD+SHIFT+1,2,3,... doesn't work in safari.
I'm using "English interface" with "French keyboard".
following miladc advice and link (Shortcuts not working on Safari and Firefox),
I changed my Language pref to French ... so I got "French interface" with "French keyboard" ... and it worked once !!!!
But it works no more ... very weird
All I want to do, it's having shortcut for my bookmarklet !

Command+1 shortcut doesn't work in iTunes 7?

During the years of having iTunes 5 & 6, I used to have those keyboard shortcuts like command+1, command+2 to show the main window of iTunes and Equalizer. This function is really helpful when you choose one song to play, then close the iTunes window to save the space on desktop, then use command+1 to show the main window of iTunes again when you need it. Really convenient.
But since I updated the iTunes 7 yesterday, I sadly found out that the key stroke combination of command+1 doesn't work anymore. Now every time when you need the iTunes window to show up, you have to click the iTunes 7 icon on the dock again. And same as the command+2 for equalizer. Since iTunes 7 erased the equalizer icon on the main pane in the corner right below, this is really not so fast as before to get those windows showed when you need them.
This issue is really unlikely to happen because I checked the new help topics of iTunes 7, there still are the entries of command+1/2 in the help topics, but they just do not work!!! Is that a new bug of iTunes 7?
Anyone has any idea about solving this problem? Or did anyone found the new keyboard shortcuts? Thanks in advance!!!

"Get Info" - new shortcut doesn't work

I'm trying to create a more convenient keyboard shortcut for "Get Info" on iTunes, since I use it a lot. I want to replace Command-I with F19 on a full-size aluminum Apple keyboard.
Using the Application Shortcuts I entered F19 as the new "Get Info" shortcut, and iTunes duly shows F19 on the menu; Command-I does not work any longer. So far so good - the problem is that it doesn't work on iTunes. It works in the Finder, I can invoke the Info window of a file that way now, but neither an universal All Applications shortcut or an iTunes specific one will bring up the information of a track, which is what I want.
Any ideas? This seems to be a genuine bug, since the menu is updated properly - it just fails to work.

Yes, of course. I understand you're just trying to rule out the obvious first.
