Firefox 6 - where are my GREEN back/forward arrows ?

I just installed Kubuntu 11.04 - Natty Narwhal and Firefox updated to V6.
My GREEN arrows - browser back / forward have disappeared - just a couple of insipid, transparent pointers !!!
Not pleased.
GREEN arrows back please and ASAP.

Try a different icon pack in Linux (e.g. Tango) or try a different Firefox theme.

Where are the back/forward arrows to navigate web site?

<blockquote>Locking duplicate thread. 
Please continue here: [[/questions/840834]]</blockquote>
as I progress through a web site and I want to go back a page and then forward to the page I just left, how do I do this? I do not see back/forward arrows as in other browsers.
Thank you,

If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
* If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
* 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.

Why do the back/forward arrows no longer work - they are grayed out?

When I start a new Firefox window or tab the back/forward arrows do not work and are grayed out. I can get previous sites by right click. I also get an orange "Firefox" dropdown tab in the upper left corner. It appears as though I have a Firefox window on top of a regular window.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Take a look at this Apple doc -> iTunes: About iOS backups
It shows the locations of backups and how to use them with iTunes.

Hi, i had backed up my data and then when i restored my phone with the restore backup option, all the photos, music where there but no apps. Al my apps are disappeared. Can you please tell me where are my apps backed up?

Apps (like other synced media like music) are not included in the backup that iTunes makes. Thus, restoring from backup if the apps are not in the iTunes library there are no apps to restore to the iPod.
Redownload the apps into your iTunes library.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
And then restore from backup.
Make sure that in iTunes>Preferences>Devices the box that say "Prevent iPods..." is checked otherwise when you connect the iPod to the computer the previous backup (with your app data) might be overwritten.

Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip IE8 Play/Back/Forward Arrows Problem

Please help me. I'm using the Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip widget on my web page: http://new.radcal.com/accugold2.html#sensoroptabs. In Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer 9 it displays properly but in Internet Explorer 8 the gray Play/Back/Forward Arrows automatically appear on the Viewport (main large slide area) when the page loads and they do not go away, ever. Whereas in the other browsers these arrows only show up when I move my mouse into the viewport area and go away as soon as I take my mouse off the viewport area.
I need the arrows to behave in IE8 like they do in IE9, Firefox, etc. I do not know javascript but I imagine there is some javascript code that could solve this problem. Does anyone know of a solution? Please help me...

What happened to back/forward arrows?

How do I add back/forward arrows?

They should appear on the Navigation Toolbar before the address box. If that bar is missing, you could try to restore it this way:
View menu > Toolbars > ''check'' Navigation Toolbar
If you have the orange Firefox button (abbreviated menus), tap the Alt key to display the classic menu bar and access the full View menu.
If they are actually missing from the Navigation Toolbar, you can use the customize feature to drag them from the button palette back to the bar. (View menu > Toolbars > Customize)
Or, if you don't mind losing other toolbar customizations, you can reset all the toolbars back to their default icons. The easiest way to do that is to use Firefox's Safe Mode.
I recommend backing up your Firefox settings first in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, this article describes how to use [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode].
Any luck?

What happened to the tool bar/back & forward arrows?

the tool bar and back/forward arrows are gone- how do I get them back? When I visit a subject within a site (such as craig's list) I can't use the back arrow to get to the site page

I downloaded Safari 5.1 onto Mac OS 10.6.8 some time ago. Yesterday the back/forward arrows next to the url window changed to a , which adds the current url as a bookmark. I want the arrows back. What happened, and how can I fix this? Thanks. kammro

I downloaded Safari 5.1 onto Mac OS 10.6.8 some time ago. Yesterday the back/forward arrows next to the url window changed to a +, which adds the current url as a bookmark. I want the arrows back. What happened, and how can I fix this? Thanks. kammro

There's another way.
Right or control click the + then click Remove Item.
Just remembered that keyboard shortcut!
You're welcome

Back Forward arrows not working properly Safari 5.1.2

After upgrading to Safari 5.1.2 on Snow Leopard, I have run into a bug with the back and forward arrows. Most of the time they are greyed out and not working. I have to move back and forward with either the keyboard shortcut or the menu. Sometimes one or the other starts to work, but it is not clear why. I have not seen both working yet.

Here is what comes up (a lot!). I feel like the days of "Conflict Catcher" with MacOS 9 and before! Anyway, it is late here, maybe where you are, too. Thanks for all the quick replies. I need to get some sleep and will come back to this in the morning.

Toolbar not complete. Missing back/forward arrows, edit, tools icons, etc and view is gone

The toolbar is missing imp components: File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help
The back and forward arrows are also missing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

* In Firefox 3.6 versions on Windows and Firefox 4 on Windows and Linux it's possible to hide the "Menu Bar" via "View > Toolbars" or via the right-click context menu of a toolbar.
* Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
* Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

When Firefox 3.5.16 is opened in OS 10.6 on Mac, the bookmarks and history are missing as well as back/forward arrows not working.

I have a laptop running Firefox 3.5.16 and Mac OS 10.6.5. I used my computer last night without any problem. This afternoon, I had a USB modem plugged in when I started my machine and at first Firefox said it couldn't connect. After removing the USB modem, I restarted without it in the machine, then connected to the Internet and started Firefox. I had a Firefox error message about bookmarks not working due to another application using them. I checked the troubleshooting pages, but for the most part they applied to a Windows machine.

I finally found a solution. In about:config, under browser.sessionhistory.max_entries, I changed 5 to 20. End of problem.

Bookmarks doesn't show ANY of MY bookmarks I had before I got the new Firefox. Where are they?

Before I got the new Firefox, I'd have to go to a web page, tap MENU, tap BOOKMARKS and a list of ALL my bookmarks would appear.When I tap BOOKMARKS in Firefox now, I get a list of Firefox items and NONE of MY BOOKMARKS are listed. When I tap MENU, bookmarks is not one of the choices. How can I bring up all my bookmarks? Where did they go? I've never lost so much information just by downloading an upgrade. An upgrade to the best ever browser! I've always loved everything about Firefox. Its not only user friendly but I can tell the improvements are state of the art!! Until now that is. I'm confident there will be a positive outcome to my dilemma and I'll be able to continue.

Did you upgrade from an old version of Firefox to a new one? Upgrading should not remove any of your bookmarks or settings, as long as you just install the update (without uninstalling the previous version).
If you switched from a different browser to Firefox, the bookmarks from your old browser will not be imported into Firefox. (This is a feature we would like to add in a future version, but it is not ready yet - sorry.)
If you use Firefox on your computer, you can use Firefox Sync to get all your bookmarks from your computer to your Android device. For details, follow this link:
[[How do I sync Firefox between my desktop and mobile?]]

DIsk Utility fail: Where are the "temporary back up files" ?

I was running out of space on my hard drive, so i freed up 50G by backing up and then deleting some photo and video files. I thought, like on a PC, i could run the disk utility to "erase free space" (and possible give me even more free G's) but it got stuck near the end, saying there was no longer enough disc space to continue. I deleted some more files, but it didn't help. Now my hard drive is COMPLETELY FULL (when I use inspector, it literally says "Available: Zero KB"). I think disk utility was making a temporary backup file, and that's what used up all of my free space (although I might be wrong), and sinbce it didnt finish the job, the files are still on the computer taking up unnecessary space. But now i have no idea where all of those files are! Where should they be stored? I need to free up some space ASAP! I'm a Graphic Designer, and I need this computer for work, asap.
Is there perhaps a free program that will show me a full look at my HD space, and say which files are taking up the most space, so that I can delete -or back up- accordingly? Or maybe one that will delete unnecessary cached files or something.... I'm in panic mode!
Thank you so much in advance for your time and help!

This is serious greek. Can you explain what I should do with this information, please?
Sorry, I hadn't looked at that in a while.
Open the Terminal app (in your Applications/Utilities folder). Be *very careful* with this app. It's a direct link into UNIX, the underpinnings of OSX, but without the protections of OSX.
In Terminal, the prompt looks like this: user-xxxxxx:~ <your name>$
(where <your name> is your short user name). It's followed by a non-blinking block cursor.
Copy the following after the prompt:
sudo rm -f /var/root/Library/Caches/TemporaryItems/*
and press Return. It should then ask for your Admin password (which won't be displayed). Press Return again.
There may or may not be any messages displayed; you'll know it's done when you see the prompt again.
