Forward/back button

My forward/back button in Safari 4.0.1 has stopped working. I can't go back to websites I just visited.
It is dimmed out. Any suggestions????
MacOS 10.5.7

Hi
Go to the View Menu>Customize Toolbar. When the panel opens, drag the existing back/fwd off the toolbar, then replace it with a fresh copy. Select Done.
If that doesn't solve it, then quit Safari. Via the Finder: Your User Account>Library>Preferences folder. Move the com.apple.safari.plist file to the trash, then restart Safari. This resets Safari preferences to default values. Restore any custom settings in either the Preference panel, Edit (spelling), or View Menu. Also, restore any custom icons.
Also, the reset adds Apple default bookmarks to your Bookmarks collection (command/option/B keys). Delete any you don't want.

In IE 8 there is a "recent pages" tab next the forward / back buttons. It helps us jump back & forth the sites. Is there similar feature in FF 6 ?

In IE 8 there is a "recent pages" tab next the forward / back buttons. It helps us jump back & forth the sites directly. Is there a similar feature in FF 6 ?

The arrow to open the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons has been removed in Firefox 4 and later.
Use one of these methods to open the tab history list:
* Right click on the Back or Forward button
* Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens
You can look at this extension:
* Backward Forward History Dropdown: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforedrop/

Can Firefox provide an option to keep the refresh button next to the forward/back buttons?

When I first installed FF4 the refresh button was buried on the righthand side of the URL window. There were a number of complaints about that location.
Then the button got moved next to the forward/back buttons. This made me quite happy.
Today, I find it's again buried in the previous position.
Can I get it back to where it is more accessible?

# Control-click on a toolbar and select Customize, this will open the customize toolbar window
# With that window on display you can drag and drop the refresh button and place it where you want

Address/Location bar, forward-back buttons are not shown

Address/Location bar, forward-back buttons are not shown in my browser. How can I make them visible?

If the menu bar is hidden then press F10 or hold down the Alt key, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear
* Make sure that 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.

Forward/ back button for various sub-folders

Hello all,
Here's the scenario.....
I have a forward and back button that load several images in a sub-folder that load to a UIloader....
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextImage);
function nextImage2(evtObj:MouseEvent):void{
imageNumber++;
LargeImageLoader.source = "portfolio/UIloader/bike/00"+imageNumber+".jpg";
checkNumber();
back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, backImage);
function backImage2(evtObj:MouseEvent):void{
imageNumber--;
LargeImageLoader.source = "portfolio/UIloader/bike/00"+imageNumber+".jpg";
checkNumber();
Since I have multiple sub-folders for my portfolio, I was wondering how to apply these same buttons to other sub-folder image paths without needing to create a pair of forward/back buttons for each sub-folder.
Thanks!

It's not entirely clear to me, but what I think you need to do for what I think you are saying you want to do would be to make the folder targeting (portfolio/UIloader/bike/, et al) a variable as well. The only missing link is what you would use to redefine the folders.
Your next/prev buttons can't be that smart unless you have some conditional logic that helps them realize a particular imageNumber range belongs to a particular folder. If your images have the same file names (00#.jpg) across the different folders then that won't help. I believe you would need them to be sequential such that no folder repeats the filenames/numbers of another

TS 4.1 User Interface Forward/Back Buttons

I'd like to the add the Forward/Back Buttons to my User Interface similar to those in the Sequence Editor. I use a modified version of the Full Featured UI on the production floor and often switch to editor mode to work on the sequence. I find it very cumbersome not to be able to jump back and forth between Sequences while doing so.
Were the buttons created using the "Editing Class" proporties and methods to build a stack of recently selected sequences? Or are the buttons already existing with the methods simply needed to be called?
Any suggestions how to impment this functionality while in edit mode?
Thanks

"but keep in mind that the UI is not meant for developing. It instead was designed with operators debugging in mind."
I don't agree with that. The UIs are fine for developing if they meets your needs. If not, then you have to weigh using the sequence editor, which is not nearly as customizable, vs the cost of reimplementing whatever you can't do without that the sequence editor already has.
Note that most of the things that are missing from the UIs would take a fair amount of effort to re-implement (type editing, ...). If there were already simple-user-ready-drop-in-components for the missing features, we probably would have already included them in the UIs.
We want the UIs to be functional, but the top priority is that they be simple enough such that they can be readily modified.
Note that in some cases there are apis to support features that aren't in the UIs, but there isn't a complete control that wraps everything. For example, Engine.SearchFiles() is a huge amount of the implementation for find-and-replace, but there currently isn't a user callable dialog for invoking it or a user accessible control for automatically browsing the results, thus we don't currently include that feature in example code for the UIs. I don't know the specifics of forward/back, so I'm not sure how much of the implementation is exposed as public APIs, beyond the goto-location functionality (see Locations.GotoLocation, ...).

Put back the drop down bar for the forward/back buttons.

There was a little bar next to the forward/back buttons that allowed you to see where you been and go back or forward a few pages when you need to. I WANT THAT BAR BACK! I am sick and tired of going through this every time firefox updates. ALSO, I've lost my personas (not that it really matters since you got rid of all the space the pictures were in), and I would like them back. I really wish you people would STOP fixing things that aren't broke and giving me so much grief trying to make it look like it and act like it did before.

Cor-el, you rock! Brought back all the personas/themes that I lost. Now I just have to work on widening the area so I can see the pictures. :)

Lost the forward/back button after updating and the home button how do I get back?

Firefox updated to 7 and I lost all of my add ons including the home button and the forward/back button. I was able to get all of my add ons restored except the home button and the forward/back buttons. How do I get them back? Wish now that I had not updated.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in Full Screen mode with all toolbars hidden.
* Press F11 to toggle full screen mode (Firefox/File > Full Screen)
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" (Linux, Windows)
* 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.

Forward/Back button behavior updated in v. 2 release?

Hi, does anyone know if the button behavior on the remote control has been updated in the new software release? Previously when watching recorded videos it skipped forward in three minute increments. While paused it would jump 10 seconds I think.
Skipping forward thirty seconds would be a lot better for me.
Thanks,
John

HOWTO: Enabling Forward, Back Buttons, Logitech MX1000 Mouse

Enabling Forward and Back Buttons, Logitech MX1000 Mouse
(and Microsoft Wireless Intellimouse Explorer, apparently)
Step 1: Get, Install evdev
==========================
First, use evdev as the Xorg mouse driver.
Get this module, install it, and make sure it is loaded each time you run Linux.
For Arch, this means:
# pacman --sync xf86-input-evdev
and adding "evdev" to the modules list in /etc/rc.conf.
Step 2: Modify xorg.conf to Use evdev as Your Mouse Driver
==========================================================
Next, in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, create an evdev-based input device that specifies your mouse:
# evdev based section for Logitech MX1000 mouse
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Evdev Mouse"
Driver "evdev"
Option "Name" "Logitech USB Receiver"
Option "CorePointer"
EndSection
Note: then "Name" field above is important. Find out the name for your device via:
% egrep "Name|Handlers" /proc/bus/input/device
In the case of the Logitech MX1000 mouse, which is wireless, it is: "Logitech USB Receiver".
Step 3: Modify Xorg ServerLayout to Use Your evdev Mouse
========================================================
Now modify the Xorg server layout to use this mouse entry:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Xorg Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "Evdev Mouse" "CorePointer"
# PS/2 Mouse not detected
# Serial Mouse not detected
EndSection
Step 4: Do Some Button Mapping for The Forward and Back Buttons
===============================================================
Now, add the following to your .xinitrc, or somewhere where it will be executed each time X starts:
% xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 8 9 6 7"
You will receive the warning:
Warning: Only changing the first 9 of 20 buttons.
Don't worry about this - it is normal.
Finally, to get those pesky Forward and Back buttons working in some Gnome apps such as Nautilus,
get and install xvkbd and xbindkeys. Now create file ~/.xbindkeysrc, containing:
# Mouse Buttons
"/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Alt_L]\[Left]""
m:0x0 + b:6
"/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Alt_L]\[Right]""
m:0x0 + b:7
"/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Left]""
m:0x0 + b:8
"/usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Right]""
m:0x0 + b:9
and add the following to your .xinitrc, or somewhere where it will be executed each time X starts:
% xbindkeys
That is it! Simple n'est pas? :-)
Many, many thanks to Arch forum member MrWeatherbee, who provided most of the key elements of the above - thanks!

Hi Misfit138, I agree that the general ideas are there already in the Wiki, but even after reading that entry, I was not able to get things working. The existing entry is not specific enough to the MX1000 mouse. So, although I have never contributed to a Wiki before, I think it is likely a good idea to do so in this case. I will make sure that the entry is very MX1000 specific. It will address a small audience, but it is one way of giving back a little to the community.

In the Navigation toolbar, the Forward/back buttons are dimmed, and the URL bar has "Search Bookmarks and History"

The Forward and Back buttons are dimmed and don't work, and "Search Bookmarks and History" is in the URL bar. Also, I sometimes find blank pages with "Search Bookmarks and History" in the URL bar after visiting some websites.

No, no need to remove other SQLite files in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

I know older thinkpads had software to modify the keyboard, i'm not seeing any options here.
I find those keys to be somewhat annoying -- i've already lost work by accidentally tapping them.
thanks!

Forward / back buttons jump one slide

Hello. I have a problem.
When i use specific skin (designed by someone else), and when I publish / preview the presentation and I press the Forward button on the playbar, the presentation doesn't go on the next slide, but on the slide after next.
Example, if I am on 3rd slide and press forward, the presentation will jump on 5th slide, if I press forward again it goes on 7th slide, if on 7th slide I press the back button it goes on 5th and it also marks as read the slides in between (slide 4 and 6 in this examples). If i let the presentation to flow normally and don't press buttons everything is ok.
Sometimes it happens the button to work normally, but not very often which is a reason why I think its not because of the skin. I am using Captivate 6 for this
Really don't have an idea what should be the problem. if i set another skin on the projext everything is OK, the problem is showing with one skin only...
Did anyone know what would be the solution for this problem?
Thanks in advance...

If the problem is evident with one particular skin, then the person that created or modified this skin has done something to cause the issue. You need to go back to THAT person and ask them to look into it. If you have the FLA file that they used to generate the skin then perhaps another AS3 programmer could investigate the issue for you if the original developer is unavailable or unreachable. But if you only have the SWF of the skin file, and the original developer cannot debug it for you, the only option you really have is to use a different skin that doesn't have the issue.

Hi. I need to do a simple thing...load image sequence,forward,back buttons

Can someone point me in the right direction? I am learning coding, and I am unsure of what the simplest method to do this would be. I have started the Open Source Comic project, which is an attempt to create a user modifiable set of code for artists to create comic books from. I am trying to find the simplest method to load a variable number of images, with forward and back buttons, and a customizable website link for their itunes comics. Thanks for reading this.
Jarrett

Hi Jarrett -
How do you add images on the fly? From the app itself?
The link I gave you last week should answer that question. Just add the code to PageControl and study it until you understand it.
I hope my language wasn't confusing. "On the fly" is just a metaphor for an adjustment in response to an unscheduled event. In this case PageControl makes a static, scrollable sequence of images. The code at the link adds the capability to change the sequence dynamically.
I am wondering about your on the fly code \[...\] i need to add pages, but I dont need the user to.
I hope you didn't pass over that link because insertion/deletion is triggered by the user. Play with the code until it's yours. The code to activate it from a web event,, etc. will then write itself. Ok?
