Safari back button greys out

Since installing OSX Mountain Lion, the Safari Back btton greys out when entering a new website. I have to close Safari and reopen it, then find the page I want through the history, just to go back one page. How do I fix it?

Workaround for this problem:
Use tabbed browsing.
or
Enabe two fingers swiping.

Forward and back buttons greyed out, no forward or back available in right click menu either

After upgrading to the latest FF14 the forward and back buttons and menu versions of forward and back are greyed out.
Tried the sqllite check and it says all my databases are fine. Tried safe mode, same thing. Tried a new profile, same thing.
Any other suggestions?

You could have backed up your profile folder. If you did, [[Recovering important data from an old profile]] can help :)

Back button greyed out initially?

This happens when I start firefox up or open a new tab:
I am for example on a website to begin with, then I click on a link to another page or website. The back button is greyed out, even though I just entered a new page.
The second time I click a link, the back button will start working.
It only happens the first time I click a link on a new tab, but this can get really frustrating!
This was happening on an older version of firefox, so I updated to the latest version, and it still happens.

I do not use those type of add-ons so can not recommend any other. I just use the built-in options to block reported web forgeries and reported attack sites.

Submit Button Greyed Out (v 4.0.5)

I have been using Compressor successfully for about a year. Recently it updated to v4.0.5. Now I am not able to submit, with the final Submit button greyed out. I have checked my Destination folder permissions and all appear correct.
What could be the cause of this, and what shall I do? I need to render a program urgently for broadcast.
Thanks
Geoff

I just resolved a similar problem. I am running OSX 10.6.8 on a MBP 13" 2010.
Once inside Compressor I'd click on "submit" and the drop down window would show "none" next to "Cluster:" and the submit button was greyed out.
I called Apple Care and they had me delete the preference file "com.apple.Compressor.plist" file from my user>library>preferences folder. This did not fix the problem on its own.
They then had me delete the Apple Qmaster folder from user>library>application support. This did not fix the problem on it's own.
I then reinstalled the Compressor application itself. This did not fix the problem on its own.
I then verified permissions and repaired permissions using disk utility. This did not fix the problem on it's own.
I then clicked on "Share Monitor" which is found on the Compressor task bar. "This Computer" was displayed in the left column. I simply clicked on it in order to high light it. I left the "Share Monitor" window open and went back to the submit panel and "This Computer" was now displayed next to "Cluster:" and the program is now working again.
YMMV.

After installing Mavericks I can no longer save a new word document or pdf by typing the name of the destination folder in the Finder window. The save button greys out. Solutions anyone?

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window.
This action will delete any custom Mail stationery that you have created. If you want to preserve it, ask for instructions.
If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Put, Get , Connection buttons greyed out

Hi All,
I am pretty new to Dreamweaver but not to web development. I
have set up and connected a few sites from my own PC. It all goes
just like it says in the manuals.
But I got called into a client site who have an existing site
set up in Dreamweaver. The DW person left and the current person
wanted some coaching. Well the Code, Split, Design views all came
up and we could edit just fine.
But over on the right, above the list of files, all the
buttons (put, get, connection etc.) were greyed out. At first I
assumed the FTP connection was not set up, but it was, because when
we saved files, they saved straight to the live site.
So I went over to look at Site / Manage Sites. The FTP
connection was listed, but many of the other options (all the
categories within Advanced) did not seem to be available. They were
not just grayed out - I could not even see the list of them.
I have been fiddling around at home on my own sites, trying
to figure out how to recreate this and I can't. I can figure out
how to put myself onto live updating (update to remote FTP on Save)
but I don't get the other buttons greyed out just because I am
working like this.
Any ideas? I'd like to be able to go back there, take them
off live updates and restore the buttons.
Thanks
Abigail

Unless one is working in ColdFusion, or has special
requirements, the FTP &
RDS server option should never be used.

My safari screen is greyed out, I checked and found a response to this question. I went to settings and cleared history, cookies, and cache, java script is on and I restarted, screen is still grey, cant touch it to do a thing. Help!

my safari screen is greyed out, I checked and found a response to this question. I went to settings and cleared history, cookies, and cache, java script is on and I restarted, screen is still grey, cant touch it to do a thing. Help!

That is usually the fix but try this now.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. See if that helps.
You can also try this - quit Safari. From the home screen - Double tap the home button and your recent apps appear the bottom. Tap and hold down on the Safari icon until it wiggles. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the app. Tap the home button twice. Restart the iPad.

Agent email help - buttons greyed out at one location

The setup: Two call centers. One in NC and one in CA.
The one in NC, which is where the call center servers are, has no issues with email buttons becoming active.
The one in CA, every morning when the agents login the email buttons will not become active unless the users do the following workaround
Start agent.
Run and IE url that was given to me by Cisco. http://<ipaddress of ccx server/EemUi/index.jsp?port=59015
This will force Java to start and have the java icon appear in the system tray.
Email buttons become active
Close IE window (which make email buttons grey out again)
close and restart agent
Email buttons work.
I only have this issue in the CA office.
I had them ship a desktop to me in the NC office. I connected it and did NOT have an issue. Everything works perfectly here.
Is the issue tied to the distance? Is there some java time out setting I can tweek to make this work.
I didn't have this problem with 8.5 su 2.... it happened after the update to su 3
Anyone seen this? Cisco has no answer.

I bounced this around the office to get some ideas. One question - how long is the CA office waiting for the email buttons to become active? That is, setting the workaround aside, if they wait long enough, do the Agent E-Mail buttons ever become active? The thinking is that could be a factor as the entire applet is around 40 MB. If connection speed isn't great it could take a while to download which would explain the scenario.

Itunes showing all data as other and sync button greyed out

Itunes showing all data as other and sync button greyed out. I have downloaded and installed Itunes 11 (multiple times) and restored my phone twice already, but I am still not able to sync my Iphone 4 with Itunes.
When I select / de-select Apps on Itunes to remove from the phone the "Apply" button does appear, but after I click it nothing happens. Then the greyed out "sync" button just appears again.
Anyone with some advise please?

Try Restarting or Resetting your touch.
Restart: Hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears and turn off your iPod. Press the sleep/wake button and hold it until you see the Apple icon.
Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time. The red slider will appear first, keep hold everything until you see the Apple icon. Release the buttons.
Check your iPod and see if your music and apps have reappeared. If they do after either option, then resync your iPod.
If neither works, then Restore your touch through iTunes.

Try to "Force Quit" Safari - either under the Apple menu or by holding down option-Command-esc.

Using the Safari Back button to navigate?

Why is it when I'm navigating the Support communities and I use the Safari back button it always goes to the top of the list and not to the list that I have already expanded. It gets pretty annoying to have to keep expanding the topic list to get back to were a left off.

Every "List" you see is sorted by activity - latest first. If you navigate away, then back, you are reloading the page with a new set of activity.
If you wish to use a list as a "Home Base" after using "Load More", COMMAND > Click the link (Title?) to open the thread in a new TAB. when finished, close the TAB and you will see your Home Base as you left it - likely with the thread you chose Underlined

My wifi button greyed out...pls help

If these don't work you probably have a hardware problem. Visit an Apple store for an evaluation or contact Apple Support.

Hi, i am using iphone4s.. 2 days ago i had a problem with wifi.. button greyed out, it was suggested to keep phone in freezer, worked temporarily and i updeted to ios7.1 but still facing same problem.. wht to do? cant afford to throw off :/ huhh..

well, you know how it is - glitches that usually resolve with a hard reset etc
then a restore. then a factory restore....then ..... nothing fixes so I try the next step with apple online - fill out my serial number and find it is a couple of weeks out of date - and then with the holidays who has time to get to the apple store? this is my second 4s handset as it is - first one the glass cracked from L to R without any impact/damage etc - they changed it out automatically because it's a 'known fault' apparently - so technically, this handset is only 6 months old - but warranty is from original purchase date -
never imagined it would turn out to be a warranty issue with the phone - and hey maybe when I get a chance to go to the apple store they'll be sympathetic, but I won't be able to get there till at least Jan 4th as it is. On the other hand, another iOS update might resolve the issue - but how long till that release? at the moment I'm having to use my old 3gs for wifi and 4s for phone!!!

Safari Back Button - Broken Again!!!

In a previous post, http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9724856 I was able to restore the back button functionality by doing a complete reset on my 1G iPod after the Safari Back Button became permanently disabled. This happened shortly after upgrading to OS 3.0.
It has now happened again, and this time I know the step that caused it. I was on Wikipedia and clicked a hyperlink to another wiki page. The link generated a 502 Bad Gateway error. At this point, the Safari Back Button became permanently disabled.
I guess I have another full reset to do again.
Marty

After doing another full reset, the Back Button on Safari was activated again. BUT!!! Now after using it for a day, it's gone again!!! Arrrrrrrggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
Is there any way of going back to OS 2.x? This never happened over the last 1.5 years of using OS 1.x or 2.x on my 1G iPod Touch.
