Favorite history in dropdown arrow gone

Before the upgrade to 29, using the down arrow next to the refresh arrow, would show the most visited sites.
Now with 29, only the most recent visits are shown for the day. Sometimes there are random sites from visits long ago.
We miss this feature. Yes, I did search how Bookmarks are used now. However I use bookmarks to mark a page that I will not use often and can't email the page to myself to keep forever.
I also read about the 'awesome' search by typing in the first letter. Not awesome at all. Many steps to get where I want to go that was so easy before.
If the site I visit everyday was in the down arrow before, how do I get it to stay there in the new 29? Or long enough until a new site becomes the favorite of ours and replaces the old site that now drops off to the bottom and then out of site. Dropping out is OK as it is no longer on the 'fast track'.
How simple was that? Open Firefox, click down arrow and go to XXX, done with that one -- hit arrow and go to YYY.
8.1 upgraded to 8.1.1 and Firefox to 29 all in one day. Hate to tell you Firefox, but it was easier to get around the Microsoft upgrade than this 29. Go figure that one.

"Most Visited" is also available on the first icon at the left of your Bookmarks Toolbar. If that toolbar is not visible, right-click in the empty space to the right of your tabs and check the box next to Bookmarks Toolbar.

  • Why are the Back and Forward arrows gone?

    In Firefox 4 the most irritating change is getting rid of the buttons for Back and Forward. Others have complained, correctly I think, about the Refresh/Reload icon gone, the Stop button gone. But I really MISS the arrows. I also didn't like having text and icons together in the menu bar, but I figured out how to change them.
    So... How do I get rid of the words Back and Forward and get the arrow buttons back?

    If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.
    If the above steps didn't help then see:

  • Forward/backward arrows gone

    Dear Support,
    I'm tired of "things" happening all by themselves with this OS! My 'go forward' and 'go back' arrows are gone from my safari header ; Only the renew page and add bookmark,autofill,and home buttons are there! AND my scrolling for the entire OS doesn't work. Totally frustrated with these...'things' that seem to just do their own thing!

    Hello David:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    These are user-to-user forums. While Apple monitors the forums, they rarely post.
    You said that
    "I'm tired of "things" happening all by themselves"
    Did you make any changes at all? Have you added third party software modifications to Safari?
    You might try a couple of things.
    Run permission repair from disk utility.
    Run repair disk from your install DVD.
    Close Safari and trash the preference file (com.apple.safari.plist). Open Safari and reenter your personal preferences.
    Go to the view option and click on "customize address bar." You will see the options available. Select what you wish and click done.
    I do not understand what you mean by
    "my scrolling for the entire OS doesn't work."
    If you can explain what you mean (if the above has not helped) someone might be able to give you suggestions.

  • Message status (reply or forward arrows) gone

    All message status signs - arrows showing that I've replies to or forwarded a message - are gone. I can find my reply or forward message in 'sent', but I should be able to have a overview of this in my message display.

    "Is this because I'm using IMAP?"
    No. I have an IMAP account (MobileMe) and POP accounts such as gmail, and all show the message reply and forward arrow icons.
    It looks as though it is not possible to de-select this message reply column.
    The only other suggestion I have is to check your Preferences > Accounts > Advanced tab and see whether you have got the "Keep copies of messages for offline viewing" set to "All messages and their attachments".
    I was wrong about the flags column in my previous post. Flags only shows the priority I think, and is usually column 1.

  • Where has the art work arrow gone?

    I have recently noticed that the art work column arrows have gone. I can no longer change to list only and visa versa. I know I can use "View" at the top and change artwork to show or not but this is tedious! The arrows were quick and easy. Can anyone confirm that iTunes 9.2 update has removed these arrows.

    I have back, front and CD covers for the majority of my iTunes playlists. WHY WHY WHY Apple has somebody decide to get rid of the arrow in the iTunes artwork window to change the artwork? WHY WHY WHY has somebody also decided that you can no longer highlight all the album tracks and drag multiple pieces of artwork onto the artwork window?
    Like several aspects of Lion these are backward steps.Please show some respect to the massive amount of work that many of us have done on iTunes and leave things alone!
    Dave Jeffs - not sure what you mean about ctrl/click - that does nothing for me - am I missing something? It also doesn't rectify the problem of adding new multiple pieces of artwork to an album.

  • All my purchased history in appstore are gone

    recently when I check my purchased history I wanted to download back all the old apps that I deleted but I found that all my purchased history are gone, any solution to help me solve this?

    Note: not all apps are available, if the developer pull the app then it's gone.
    Try iPhone's App Store app > Updates (bottom right) > Purchases > re-download here.
    make sure you have Wi-Fi connection.

  • All history and bookmarks are gone, WTF ?

    my bookmarks and history are gone. Where are they ?

    If you used a remove personal settings option from Windows or Firefox,you may well have permanently lost those bookmarks.
    * Undelete<br>If you did that then timely use of a file undelete utility and a good helping of luck are likely to be required to attempt recovery (probably best to stop using
    the computer entirely, until you have such utility).
    *Your Own Backups<br>You could have a backup system in place that backs up such files or the firefox profile, and you may be able to use that.
    * Synced to another machine<br> you may have the bookmarks synced on another machine, or even on an external server
    **see [[what is firefox sync?]]
    See also [[lost bookmarks]] but I am not sure any of that applies in this case, it is worth reading it though

  • Cursor arrow gone from solid black to having white lines go through it and trackpad is not working properly in mail and adobe acrobat - anyone know how this could have happened and how to solve it?

    Can anyone help me?  Concerned that I may have some kind of malware.  My cursor arrow and trackpad are behaving strangely,  The cursor used to be a solid black arrow but now seems to have horizontal white lines running through it.  The trackpad does not function normally either.  For example, when I use my trackpad to scroll up and down in mail  it sometimes works and sometimes does not.  In adobe acrobat it sometimes does not work.  In facebook, the cursor does not line up behind the menu keys as it should.
    Any one know how this might have happened and how I can stop it?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • The top line that said file, history, bookmarks etc is gone. I accidently clicked on something, how do i get it back?

    The line on the very top of the web browser, (above the icons for back, forward, refresh....) that used to say files, view, history, bookmarks etc is no longer there, how do i get it back?

    Hello Dawn.
    Press ALT in your keyboard (or F10) to make the menu bar temporarily visible. If you want it to be permanently visible, go into ''View > Toolbars > Menu Bar'', or rightclick the navigation toolbar (the stop button, for example) and select ''Menu Bar''.
    If this doesn't help, rightclick the navigation toolbar, select ''Customize...'' and click ''Restore Default Set''. If it doesn't appear right away, try pressing ALT or F10. You can go into ''View > Toolbars > Menu Bar'' to make it permanently visible.
    If none of this helps, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Try disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal.

  • Where have my up and down arrows gone?

    Upgraded my MacBook to Firefox 26.0 and scrolling up and down arrows on the right side have disappeared. If I just use my touch pad it skips around and is very frustrating. I want my arrows back! Can't find anything in preferences to change. Mac is running 10.9.1
    Please help?

    On Mac the scroll bars can be hidden and only have them show when you scroll the page so you can see the current scroll position.
    The idea is that a touch pad is used that doesn't require the scroll bars to be visible and thus have more screen estate for the browsing area.
    You can make the scroll bars always visible:
    System Preferences > General > Show Scroll Bar > Choose "Always"

  • Scroll Bar arrows Gone?

    The verical scoll bar arrows are no longer there on OS X 10.7.
    Any way in System prefs or Safari prefs to get them back?

    Installed Lion today. Started testing out applications and I miss and still need the scroll bar arrows.
    I use several applications where the arrows on the scroll bar allow small movement as one line, especially important when copying several different sections of several paragraphs in Word, picking and choosing file movement in Spring Cleaning, or seeing just how far your object is off the printable field in Visio.
    I do love the touch functions of my iPhone but this will just not work on a desktop workstation.
    Does someone know if Apple will look at these comments with some interest in keeping those of us that have used Apple hardware since the Apple II happy?
    Well for now, I'm just moving back to Snow Leopard. So much for progress.

  • Where has the Mail Reply Arrow Gone?

    Running Mail 4.1 but have no reply/forward arrow on certain emails after answering/sending. Some are there, some are not. However, the answered mail is in my sent mailbox yet I have no arrow to click on to see how/if the mail was handled. Posted about this before but received no replies. Can anybody help?

  • Back button forward button, refresh and cancel button all do not work they are always grey out and the drop down history by forward arrow doesn't work either

    when I go to another website the back button to the home button never works. the home button works. I can't do any or the above mentioned features

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Strange mighty mouse pointer: arrow gone

    My mouse pointer has been acting strange recently (maybe connected to 10.4.3?); it seems to only be in Safari not in Finder or other programs. The mouse pointer normally adapts to what it's over: it's a thin vertical line when over text, a hand when things can be moved, and usually an arrow. But now it's turning to a text-line icon as soon as it enters the safari screen, whether it's over text or not. If I right click it twice it goes back to arrow, but otherwise it's the wrong pointer. This is most annoying when I'm using the scroll bars or trying to click tabs (since it's not intuitive to scroll using a text edit vertical line, and even more difficult to close a tab with a line rather than arrow!).

    Actually got solved by pulling usb plug out of keyboard and plugging it back in. I think it was caused when I pulled out the keyboard usb from back of machine, somehow messed up the mouse which was plugged into it.

  • My Layer Dropdown Arrows Have Disappeared?!

    So I'm not sure if this has been brought up before on these forums but didn't see anything when googling the question.
    For some reason my Illustrator CS6 Layer arrows have disappeared.  Not allowing me to drop down all the objects within a layer to unlock certain objects within that layer.  Not sure if I'm explaining this very well but if you view the two images of my screen, you'll see that I'm only have this problem with one file.  The other is fine (as well as all my other files) and gives me my drop down arrows allowing me to go in and select or unlock individual objects within that layer.  Please does anyone know why this is doing this?  I need to finish this project by the end of the week but I can't finish it if I can't edit multiple objects within layers.  Could it possibly be a bug?  I don't think so. I may just have disabled it accidentally somehow.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Go to the Layers Panel menu > Panel Options and see if the Show Layers Only option is enabled. If so, disable it.
    It is a document specific setting.
