How do I get the back button in Safari to work again?

The back button stopped working. I can only refresh the page. To go back I need to go up to History, and click back. I loved it when the back button worked. Any suggestions? I have a MACBook and Leopard

For any of you who have had this problem... here is the real solution. On the upper task bar, Go to VIEW, open up CUSTOMIZE TOOL BAR, find the FORWARD AND BACK ARROWS and DRAG THEM UP TO WHERE THEY BELONG. How did they disappear?..... some accidental combination of keystrokes deleted them, I don't remember what that was. End of story and I am sticking to it

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    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")
    Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • How do I get the Back Button drop down menu back?

    When surfing in a tab there used to be a drop down menu next to the forward and back buttons. It was a little tiny triangle looking arrow. This was really useful and needed. It is gone in Firefox 4 as far as I can see. I am using the default 4.0 Theme. If it is not there anymore I will have to go going back to 3.16 if the drop down menu is gone. Thanks for any help.

    I do prefer Right-click on tab for tab history, or hold a couple of seconds, as the drop-down marker takes up space and had been removing it myself. Although I think it should have been an option.

    Open  > About this Mac, and tell us what OS X version you have. If it's 10.8, reinstall OS X 10.8.3 > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1640
    If, after reinstalling the update, you still can't use Safari, hold Command and R keys while your computer is starting and reinstall Lion or Mountain Lion

  • After my update to version 4, the back button now only seems to store the last page I was on rather than the last 10 like it used to before the update. I've scoured the options menu to no avail. How can I get the back button working like it used to?

    The back button used to work many times before it would reach the end of its list of pages I had been to recently and became greyed out, but now it will only work once before this happens. Also, the list of pages that pops up when I right click it now only has two entries no matter how many pages I've visited on that tab, the page I am currently on and the page I most recently left. Previous to the installation of the update to version 4 however, the list that appeared when I right clicked on the back button contained up to 10 items.

    Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most other Add-ons.''
    # You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    # Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • How do I get the Brother Printers Control Center to work again?

    The Brother Control Center for Brother's MultiFunction Printer/Scanners disappeared after upgrading to Snow Leopard. The previous files were erased in HD\Library\Printers\Brother\Utilities\ and the Control Center is gone. The Brother USA website http://www.brother-usa.com only lists software updates for 10.5. 10.6 is not listed as an option
    How do I start the Control Center to scan documents and chose between different Brother printers?
    Thank you for your help.

    Thank you for this link. It helped me find the solution.
    1. Take the Brother Install DVD and reinstall the printer software.
    2. Ignore that there is newer software on your computer.
    3. Restart the computer
    4. Go into the HD\Library\Printers\Brother\Utilities\Control Center directory and restart the ControlCenter
    5. Run Software Update and install the SL printer update
    6. Reconfigure the ControlCenter software buttons via the customize buttons as needed
    Everything seems to be working fine again.

  • How do I get my back, forward, reload & stop bottons working again?

    When I hit Firefox icon on desktop, the Firefox page come up with "untitled" blank page comes up. I have no access to the toolbar with back <, forward >, reload and stop x buttons.

    * 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 that item then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up

    Nastyassink-
    Apple's Camera Connection Kit includes both an SD adapter and a USB adapter.  You can use an SD card or an adapted Mini SD card with the SD adapter.  You can use a USB thumb drive with the USB adapter, as well as a USB adapter for other cards such as Compact Flash.  (Some card adapters draw too much current and require a powered USB hub to work.)
    It is required that the camera card or thumb drive be formatted as MS-DOS FAT, just as if it had been formatted in a camera.  Photos and videos must be in a folder named DCIM, and have names consisting of 8 characters plus suffix, just as they would have been named in a camera.
    Some video formats are not compatible with the iPad video player and must be converted on your computer.  (The iPad can read M4V, MP4 and some MOV files.)

  • In Yosemite, How can I get the "READER" button back in the Tool Bar at the top of the screen

    In OS X Yosemite,
    How can I get the "READER" button back in the Tool Bar for Safari at the top of the screen ?
    Thanks,

    I don't see the "READER button".
    I see "READ LATER" but not the "READER" function.
    Maybe I'm doing it wrong.
    Please continue to HELP ME with this question.
    In the previous version of Safari, there was a "READER Button" on the right side of the tool bar. This brings up the selected web page in a READER mode all by itself, without the ads, etc.
    Are you saying that I can get this function by clicking on the Left side of the Address bar?
    When I do that, I get lots of icons, but NOT the READER button.
    Thanks
