In Firefox 29 why isn't the RELOAD button one of the customizable controls? I want to add it to my toolbar.

Bummer!

*There is now one large urlbar container that contains the location bar and the Back and Forward buttons and the combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is located at the right end of the location bar.
*This urlbar container is locked to its position on the Navigation Toolbar and can't be moved.
*This change also has the consequence that you can no longer hide the Navigation Toolbar, so you do not see this bar in the right-click context menu of the toolbar area that shows which toolbars to show or hide.
Firefox 29 and later versions have the Australis interface that looks different than the user interface in Firefox 28 and older versions.
*With the Australis interface the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three bar Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar<br>A consequence of this new menu button is that you no longer can hide the Navigation Toolbar
*There is a star like button to the right end of the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu
*It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu on the toolbars to have menus like the the Bookmarks menu
You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.

I would like to move the reload button off of the location bar. I would also like to have a visible "forward" button as well as the back button.

Simple as that. Given that I have OCD, it's extremely unpleasant to have both the forward and back buttons not consistently visible. How can I return to that appearance?
I also want to separate the reload button from the location bar, as I had it before the update. I find myself reloading pages quite often, and having the button be smaller, and within the location bar, is well... kinda counter-intuitive.
Ideally, I would like to have it ordered, from left to right: back, forward, reload, location bar.
Firefox has always been very customizable, and very user friendly. A few hiccups here and there, sure, but you can typically get what you want done, one way or another. So can you guys help me out? This is driving me crazy. I have installed Classic Theme Restorer, and it doesn't change that I can't currently do this.

Hi Rose1, if you mean in the regular address bar of Firefox 29, the Forward button should appear after you have used Back.
If you mean in the Classic Theme Restorer, you first need to check the box for "Movable back-forward button" in its Options. Open the Add-on page using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions, then click the Options button for Classic Theme Restorer. On the "Main" tab, under General UI, you will find this option. As you check and uncheck, Firefox shows the result of the change, so you should see the arrows appear on the right end of the main toolbar.
After finishing with this dialog, you can use Customize to drag them where you want them.
Any luck?

Why has the Reload button shrunk and shot to the end of the URL window? How will I find out when the Favloc plugin works in V4?

I had installed Firefox 4, but rapidly had to backtrack to 3.6, then again to 3.5. Two reasons: 1. The three toolbar buttons I use most are Back, Forward and Reload. In 3.5 I can group these nicely at the left hand end; in 4 the Reload button has shrunk and shot across to the end of the URL bar. Why?
2. Versions 3.6 and 4 are incompatible with the Favloc plugin. This is such a brilliant plugin you ought to buy the code and build it in. I am marooned in 3.5 until this plugin works in V4 - running 3.5, how will I find out when it does?

As far as I know, [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ the Classic Theme Restorer add-on] is the only way move the Reload button outside the address bar.
# Install [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ Classic Theme Restorer] and restart Firefox when prompted.
# Open the Add-ons Manager (Ctrl+Shift+A; Mac: Command+Shift+A), then the Extensions category.
# Next to Classic Theme Restorer, click the Options button.
# On the Main tab, make sure "Movable back-forward button" and "Hide urlbars stop & reload buttons" are checked. You might also want to check "Combine stop & reload buttons". Close the options window when done.
# Right-click an empty area of the tab bar and choose Customize.
# Drag the Back/Forward, Stop and Reload buttons onto the navigation toolbar.
# Click the Exit Customize button in the lower right corner when done.
That being said, I should point out that you can reload pages in other ways.
* Right-click any tab and choose Reload.
* Right-click an empty area of the page and choose Reload.
* Press F5.
* Press Ctrl+R (Mac: Command+R).

Where did the "Stop" button go on the Navigation Bar in ff4? It isn't included in the Customize box. Is there anyway to install the "Stop" button for loading web pages or is this option compeletly gone from Firefox now?

Just installed upgrade to Firefox 4.0. Where did the "Stop" button go on the Navigation Bar. I checked the Customize dialogue box and it isn't included. Is anyone else missing it? Is there anyway to install the "Stop" button for loading web pages or is this option completely gone from Firefox now? It was a very helpful button and allowed us users to stop a web page and move on if it wasn't what we needed.

In Firefox 4 by default the Stop, Go and Reload buttons are combined and attached to the right hand edge of the location bar.
When you are typing in the location bar it will show the Go button. When a site is loading it shows the Stop button. At other times it shows the Reload button.
If you want separate buttons, right-click on a toolbar and choose Customize, you can then drag and drop the stop or reload buttons and place them elsewhere. If you place them in the order "Reload-Stop" on the right hand edge of the location bar they will be combined again.

Why is the Refresh Button missing in the Firefox upgrade I just got??

There has always been a Refresh button in the toolbar at the top. It is not there anymore and I want it back. Please supply it.

If you look at the very end of the address area, after the star, you should see a reload button. Actually, it changes depending on the page status: after loading, it's reload, during loading it's stop, and if you start typing into the address box, it turns into go.
If you prefer separate buttons, you can use the Toolbar customization feature to move the combined button away from the end of the address box and/or split the reload and stop (change the sequence to prevent them from recombining).
View menu > Toolbars > Customize
If you have the orange Firefox button, tap the Alt key or press F10 to display the classic menu bar.
In some cases, it is easier to press Ctrl+r or the F5 key than to find the little button.

Where's the Reload button on Firefox 6?

I installed Firefox 6 and now I cannot locate the Reload button. On my previous version it was just to the right of the forward/back arrows.

It is docked at the end of the location bar (where you type web addresses) and is changed so that it is a reload button with an arrow once a web page is loaded but a stop button with a cross whilst a page is loading.
If you really want the old type buttons back it is possible to get something similar using the customise option. (whether you get or two buttons or one combined depends on the position and order of the buttons.)

Web DynPro Behaviour when the Reload button is pressed

Hi,
I'd like to know what is the behaviour of the Web DynPro when an user presses the Reload button on the browser.
I'm asking this because I designed a WDP that has a view with some input fields, two button and a table to show the result of a search operation based on the content of the input fields.
Some of the input fields are text inputs and others are dropdown list controls. In some cases, e.g. after having performed a search, if I hit the Reload button the content of one dropdown list was shown in another dropdown list.
The dropdown lists and the other input fields are bound to some context attributes and nodes.
I'm trying to figure out why the WDP is kept in this 'dirty state' when the page is reloaded.
Thanks,
Pietro.

Hi Pietro,
a reload of the Browser causes every time a reload of WDJ-Application. That means the content in the wdDoInit-Method is executed and the UI-Input elements are in initial state.
If you want to store the selection in the Input fields and droodowns the only way is to store that in the session.
Here is an example to do that.
WDScopeUtil.put(WDScopeType.CLIENTSESSION_SCOPE, "ABC", "someValue");
Than you have to read this in the init-Methods.
WDScopeUtil.get(WDScopeType.CLIENTSESSION_SCOPE, "ABC");
Regards
Gunter

Why isn't my back button in Safari not working? I am constantly resetting Safari.

Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari
Move the Cache.db (or ApplicationCache.db) file from the com.apple. Safari folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac. Launch Safari. Try the back button.

Went to your 'help' section and asked "where is the reload button?" and now I am being told my question is too long. very screwed up folks.

Where is the "reload" button?
WHY HAVE A 'DETAILS' BOX THAT HOLDS 345 CHARACTERS WHEN YOU COME BACK AND DEMAND THAT I REDUCE IT TO 255 CHARACTERS? HOW STUPID IS THAT? I had an explanation written out but the system won't accept it.
Christ, now it's telling me that my question is too long and I don't even know how to get back to the question to reduce the number of characters in it. This is truly screwed up folks.

Where is the 'reload' button?

''Duplicate post, continue here - [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/843347]''
how do I get my 'reload' button back on my screen?

In Firefox 4, the stop/go/reload buttons have been combined into one button, and are attached to the right edge of the location bar. If you type in the location bar you get the go button, when a page is loading it becomes the stop button, at other times it becomes the reload button.
If you want separate buttons, right-click on a toolbar and choose Customize, you can then drag and drop the reload and stop buttons to where you want them on the toolbar.

The page hangs indefinitely, unless I hit the reload button.

My question is: Often times when I am opening a new page, the page hangs indefinitely, unless I hit the reload button. Sometimes I have to do this several times. The tab shows that it is trying to connect, but it won't. I have also experienced when the page loads incorrectly and all I get is a jumbled mess to the left side of the page. I mistakenly thought it was a problem with my carrier but now realize it's Mozilla. I am having more problems now than I did with Internet Explorer and am ready to go back! edit

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

I just loaded Firefox 4 and can't seem to get the reload page icon on the toolbar

On the toolbar in earlier versions of Firefox, there were two icons, one an X to stop loading the page and the other a circle to reload a page. Neither appears to be available whne I go to toolbars/customize

Why doesn't the "back" button work all the time in Safari?

Why doesn't the "back" button work all the time in Safari?

thanks for the reply. You prompted me to check and I realised it wasn't installed on my test laptop and opening in Microsoft Reader. I've installed it now and it works.
My next challenge is to prevent the mailto: command opening Microsoft Mail instead of Outlook, but I guess every user will have a different default.
Thank you

Why does the "mute" button not "mute" the new iPad?

Hi,
the problem drives us crazy.
We bought the new iPad on launch Day and every other App (like Hotel Dash) does play Sounds even though the iPad is muted. Really anoying are "between Level" Ads or "pause Ads" (like in Wedding Dash, Lost Luxuries) which started playing while my wife was in the Subway.
The mute Button should turn the iPad to mute without exceptions. How can we fix it? Or do we have to return the new iPad?
Regards
Tim

Thanks for your Reply. The Problem is, we are not listing to Music or watching an Movie - we are using an App, which plays Advertisement.
Game Sounds do not play at all, but the Advertisement is playing at full Volume. This should not happen.
Ok it is "not a bug it's a feature" or just abuse by App Developers, which i have no controll over? I have to use the volume rocker all the time? Why put a "mute" button on an iPad?
As you were told, the mute button mutes system sounds. Other sounds are muted via the rocker. That's the way it is.
