"Edit" Button on Publishing Page Not Working

I have a publishing site which has been upgraded from 2010 to 2013 and if I click the "Edit" button in the top right or in the ribbon nothing happens. If I check the page out first then the buttons work. The expected behavior is that it should
check the page out as part of the edit operation and I see this working fine on other publishing sites that are virtually identical to the ones that are failing. When I compare the source of the pages of one that does not work and one that does work I see
that there are a few key differences:
sp.ui.pub.ribbon.js and sp.publishing.resources.resx are loaded on the site that is working but not the one that is failing
JavaScript variables such as pullPageVariation, l_ur_plsWait, l_ur_rfct, etc., are defined on the page that works but not the one that fails.
A JavaScript block which adds functions such as PublishingRibbonUpdateRibbon(), EnsurePublishingConsoleActionScripts(), etc. is loaded on the site that works but not the one that fails.
There are other differences but I believe these are the relevant ones. In reflecting some code that handles the Edit button I can see that this missing pieces are key but I've not been able to determine why they're missing. I've looked at the delegate controls
that are registered for AdditionalPageHead and there is no difference from the site that works compared to the site that doesn't. Note that I also found that the same exact site upgraded in two different environments (dev and production) had different results
- one worked, the other didn't. Taking a backup of the site that was not working and restoring over the one that was (prod -> dev) resulted in dev now replicating the failure so I don't believe it's a farm specific thing but rather something about the content.
I reactivated all site collection and site features in case there was some odd issue with that and that made no difference.
Looking at the upgrade maintenance logs there was an error when attempting to activate the Translation feature which resulted in the PublishingSite feature having an incomplete upgrade status. Running the upgrade cmdlet again resulted in a successful upgrade,
at least according to the logs.
I'm at my wits end as to why this is not working and I would definitely appreciate any insights folks might have.

    thanks to help me fixing this asap

    The wireless channel in use by the router will change as it strives to find the clearest channel. Have you tried going into the router settings and fixing the channel in use ? The best channel to use can be found with "inssider", which is used to scan all available channels, and shows you the ones least congested.......
    It may also be that the "lease time" for your connections may need increasing......?

  • I'm having constant problems with pages not working. I.E.: I cannot fill in writeable fields, click on buttons... or anything... nothing on the page works. And, this is not exclusive to a particular site. I can, however, work well in Explorer.

    For the last few weeks I have had constant problems with pages not working. I.E.: I cannot fill in writeable fields, click on buttons... or anything... nothing on the page works. And, this is not exclusive to a particular site. It does seem to be a browser issue, because I can work well in Explorer.

    Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

  • Adobe CC Education Eligibility Page Not Working!

    I work for a university and bought the educational version of CC.  When I clicked the link in the email provided by Adobe to upload verification of my employment... I filled out the form and when I click the button at the bottom that says "Review and Submit" I get a page not found error.  Someone at Adobe please help!

    Different regions may have slightly different processes. Take a look at the following document: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/education-faq.html
    I hope that this will help you get going.
    If you still get that Page Not Working error, try the same with a different browser and check.

  • Home button in HTML Help Not Working

    My Home button in HTML Help Not Working.
    Also the Home option from the Options menu does not work. I receive the "This program cannot display the webpage" error.
    I have the correct file name (titlepg.htm) in the Advanced Windows Ptoperties "Default" field and the "Home" field. However, I still receive the "This program cannot display the webpage" error.
    How can I correct this situation? Thanks, your help is appreciated!

    Can you post a couple of screen captures please?
    One where you show the Project Explorer with the desired topic in view. Another where you show the dialog where you specify the Home page destination.
    Another thing you may wish to try is to define a totally new window, assign the values there and ensure you point to the window in the Single Source Layout recipe.
    Oh, and one other thing. Are you using RoboHelp HTML or RoboHelp for Word?
    Cheers... Rick

  • Hi I have an iPhone 4 and suddenly it stopped working. Could here notifications and nothing on the diisplay. Wake up  button on top is not working. so unable to restart the phone. Wanted to try restore from iTunes but Find my iPhone (iCloud) is on.

    Hi I have an iPhone 4 and suddenly it stopped working. Could here notifications and nothing on the diisplay. Wake up  button on top is not working. so unable to restart the phone. Wanted to try restore from iTunes but Find my iPhone (iCloud) is on. How to recover or restart my Phone

    Follow these steps to log into your iCloud account on your computer and deactivate "Find my iPhone" on your device:
    Remove an iOS device or Mac on which you can’t turn off Find My iPhone
    If you can’t turn off Find My iPhone on the device, turn off the device so it goes offline, then remove it from Find My iPhone on iCloud.com.
    Note:    You can also remove your iOS device by first erasing it—just follow the instructions below for removing an iOS device you don’t have. You can later restore the device from an iCloud or iTunes backup.
    Turn off the device you want to remove.
    Sign in to icloud.com/#find on another computer with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud). If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.
    Click All Devices, select the offline device, then click Remove from Account. If you don’t see Remove from Account, click All Devices again, then click the Delete button next to the device. If the device comes online again, it will reappear in Find My iPhone. If your device reappears, turn off Find My iPhone on the device (follow the instructions above for removing a device by turning off Find My iPhone), or if it’s an iOS device and you no longer have it, follow the instructions below for removing an iOS device you no longer have.
    Remove an iOS device you no longer have
    If you no longer have the iOS device because you gave it away or sold it, you need to remotely erase it before you can remove it.
    Sign in to icloud.com/#find with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud). If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.
    Click All Devices, then select the device.
    Click Erase [device], then enter your Apple ID password. Because the device isn’t lost, don’t enter a phone number or message.
    Note:    If you’re trying to erase a family member’s device, that person will need to enter his or her Apple ID password on this device. If the device is offline, the remote erase begins the next time it’s online. You’ll receive an email when the device is erased.
    When the device is erased, click Remove from Account.All your content is erased, and someone else can now activate the device.

  • My phone died last night and when I plugged it in it wouldn't turn on.I tried restarting it but it has yet to turn on since last night,It was just a black screen,i try the on/off and home buttons together but its not working,What should I do?

    My phone died last night and when I plugged it in it wouldn't turn on.I tried restarting it but it has yet to turn on since last night,It was just a black screen,i try the on/off and home buttons together but its not working,What should I do?

    How long have you had your phone? Because if you've had it a long time, the battery in the phone might of died on you. Or have you dropped it in water, snow, from high up? All those things could of disconnected something internally in your phone, or permentaly damaged the internal hard drive its self, or the sims card.

  • Adobe Reader XI and Adobe Reader X Pro (Editable PDF Combobox Search is not working properly.)

    I have created Editable PDF using itext(5.3.0) in java. I have used Adobe Reader XI and Adobe Reader X Pro.  But in editable PDF combobox search is  not working properly.
    It's only search first character.

    My (admittedly old and slow) system did this too the first time I opened Reader 11, but it "unfroze" after about fifteen seconds, (an eternity in computing time, I know, but it did eventually open all the way) What you're seeing on the right is the "Tools" panel initializing. That's exactly where mine would freeze up on starting. Once it did finally open fully, I clicked the "Tools" link at the top to close the panel, and I opened and viewed a document that way, then closed reader. Now when I open Reader, the Tools panel doesn't initialize and it opens immediately.
    Reboot and before you open anything else, open Reader. When you open it, DO NOT try to do anything with it until it fully opens, don't click anything, don't try to switch to another app. Give it time to open fully, and then click the Tools link to close it. Then, open and view a document, and close it. Close Reader and reopen it. the Tools panel should remain closed and Reader should open fully immediately.

  • HT202159 Mountain Lion upgrade download stopped, now it states in purchased apps that 'an error has occured' and resume button is blank & will not work

    Mountain Lion upgrade download stopped, now it states in purchased apps that 'an error has occured' and resume button is blank & will not work. Tried to re download, but it states code has already been used

    Danielle...
    From the App Store menu bar top of your screen click Store > Check for Unfinished Downloads
    If that doesn't help, disable anti virus software and turn off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security & Privacy.
    Keep in mind, for downloading Mountain Lion from the App Store, a high speed (broadband) internet connection is strongly recommended by Apple as noted here > iTUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    If you need to reinstall OS X or repair the the startup disk using Mountain Lion Recovery, that requires broadband (high speed internet) access to the internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the internet form Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation.
