Safari google snap-back gone!

I had this suddenly start happening the other day... the orange arrow in the google bar that takes you back to your google results, when your searching through the bar is no longer there. Instead, whenever I am searching, I have the grey X which is usually up there only when I am on the results page. I know it seems minor... but when your used to it, not having it kinda stinks.
I have already tried deleting the Safari preferences file and relaunching, and had no results.
Any help appreciated!

Ok...
Open a Finder window select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. Then open the Library folder, then the Caches folder, then the com.apple.Safari folder.
Move the cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash. Relaunch Safari.
Which Mac OS X and which version of Safari do you have installed? It would help to add that to your forum profile. Click: *My Settings* right side of this page.
Also, turn off your Extensions. Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference.

  • Where is snap back in Safari 6?

    When on a Google search,  I see they have removed the snap back feature!  Is it somewhere else?  Is there another quick way to get back to the main search after reading multiple pages of a particular site?  I am using OSX 10.7.4.

    One should do the trick..  try this.
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy / paste >   ~/LIbrary/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    If that doesn't help, check Safari > Preferences > Extensions. If there are any installed, turn that OFF, quit then relaunch Safari to test.

  • Where is the snap back to page function in Safari?

    Is the the "Snap back" to page function gone? I cannot find it anywhere on Safari 4

    Thanks. I can see that it is also useful in the search box but Apple should not have taken it out of the address bar. I use that function a great deal. The "Top Sites" function is nice but it doesn't replace the snap back function in the address bar.
    Sometimes I think the programmers at Apple do not actually use the applications they work on.
    Is there a request page I can ask Apple to put snap back back in?

  • Google Play is gone. How do I get it back.

    LG G Pad 8.3 LTE, Google Play is gone. How do I get it back. I have looked in apps and it is not listed.   I may have deleted it when I got the tablet.
    How can I get it back on ?

        We are here to help! The G Pad won't be much fun without the Play Store.
    If you power off/on, does it come back?
      • Go to Settings on your device.
      • Swipe to view the list of All apps.
      • Scroll to the bottom of the list to see if you can view disabled system apps.
      • Touch the system app from the list that you’d like to enable.
      • Select Enable.
    If that doesn't work, your next step would be the Factory Reset. Let me know how this works for you.

  • How do I get google maps back and turn on location services so I don't have to use your absolutely garbage maps

    How do I get google maps back so I don't have to use apples disgusting version of an attempt at a map

    You don't. You can use Safari and go to mobile Google maps and after opening that, tap on the arrow on the bottom of the page and save it to the homescreen. That will allow you to use Google maps web app on the phone. There is a rumor that Google is working on a stand alone app for the App store however no one knows yet if it has been submitted.

  • Link Safari Google

    Dear forum participants,
    Please, I need your help.
    I have a white MacBook with OS Snow Leopard, has lately presented the following problem that I can not solve.
    Using the Safari browser and Google as a search engine, I notice that the links of the sites that I have visited do not change color, that it is as if I had never visited these sites, so the color of the link does not become violet.
    Still using Safari but with a different search engine, such as Bing or Yahoo, this does not happen. So the sites visited are highlighted.
    Using Firefox as a browser and as a search engine Google in this case everything works, that is, the links are highlighted.
    Please can you help me to make evident also visited links with Safari and Google search engine?
    Thank you, thank you for your precious help.
    Have a nice day

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    Back to the menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari
    Select the following:
    Remove all website data
    and Clear History
    Click Reset.
    Then quit and relaunch Safari to test.

  • Lion Safari 5.1 back and forward gestures not working.

    Is anyone else having problems with some of the gestures in Safari?
    They work about 20% of the time. The page moves and the elastically snaps back rather than changing to a previous page.

    I am a new Lion user. I have just upgraded my machine from Snow Leopard to Lion yesterday.
    My Safari crashes whenever I use three fingers left-wipe to make it go back to the previous page.
    These are my settings image on trackpad.... Is there anyone happen to have the same result I get?
    My machine configuration:
    Safari Version 5.1.1 (7534.51.22)
    Mac OS X 10.7.2 Build 11C74
    Processor 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    8GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Thanks in advance!!

  • I hate the new Apple Map.  The directions are confusing.  How do I get google maps back on my iPad and iPhone?

    I hate the New Apple Map.  The directions are confusing and do not continue by pressing 'next.'  How do I get Google Maps back to my iPad and iPhone?  Thank you.

    Start Safari
    Enter the URL:  http://maps.google.com/#bmb=1
    tap "Go"
    Now that you have Google Maps up on Safari, tap the bottom center icon (box with arrow pointing to the right).
    Select "Add to Home Screen".
    You will now have a Google Maps icon on your iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch that will take you to Google maps.
    There are other map services available.  MapQuest, Waze, NavFree, OffMaps, etc...

  • The new maps application doesn't work. I want Google Maps back!!!!

    The new maps application doesn't work. I want Google Maps back!!!!
    Most of the locations and search are not shown.
    choose to go by bus is not working:(
    I'm totally disappointed because of that. 

    Try doing a reset - hold down the sleep/wake button and the Home button together until the Apple logo appears, then let them go and allow the iPad to finish restarting. Then launch Safari and try to open a new tab.

  • My default browser on Google Chrome was Google Search. Now it is AVG and Babylon. I want to get Google Search back. How do I get rid of AVG?

    I watched a video on YouTube on how to cheat in this one online game to get unlimited amount of gold. I went to the website to download the system used to cheat: CheatEngine.com. I downloaded it, thinking it wouldn't do anything, but it did do something. When I realized it changed my default search engine, I deleted the program. It changed my search engine on Google Chrome from Google Search to Babylon and AVG. I really want Google Search back!! I have tried everything. Nothing works and I really want Google Search back. Can you help me?

    Thank you so much for helping! But when i go to extensions, it says i don't have any! that makes me mad >:( stupid CheatEngine! Thanks anyway though!

  • How do I get mail to stop snapping back to top of inbox after moving a message

    My organization provides iPads to some employees to assist them in working remotely. Most people updated their devices to ios7 on the day of release, but I waited so we could compare functionality. I'm glad I did, as there have been a few things that we've had to figure out for our users. However, there is one we can't find the answer for. Most of our users make use of email extensively, and it has for the most part worked great on the iPads. But here is the problem now: a user goes into their inbox which has hundreds of messages, so they decide to clean it up a bit. They scroll down to some of their old messages, and move the message to a folder. That's works fine. However, when the screen goes back to the inbox, it snaps back to the top, rather than going back to the position in their inbox where they last were. Thus they need to scroll down again. When I first saw this, I assumed that it didn't work prior to ios7. However, I checked on my iPad (not on ios7 yet) and the inbox does not snap back to the top, but rather remembers where I last was in the list of messages. Some of users are finding this very annoying, as they are wasting time scrolling through their inbox.
    Anyone got a fix for this?

    Hi BGreg - Thanks for responding. That option is definitely not checked- which is why this is so mysterious to me.
    The other thing that might be a clue is that, as I type an email, drafts of that email show up in my In box. Why multiple versions of the draft show up in my In box (rather than a single version in Drafts folder) is a mystery. It means that I have dozens of versions of long emails (each version reflecting a longer stage of completion) clogging up my In box.
    Weird, huh?

  • How do i get my google calendar back on pc icloud deleted it

    Can I keep my contacts on the ipad but not have icloud sync the calendar? I need to get google calendar back on my PC so I can sync with my Droid for my business. icloud calendar does not have reminders which I really need on my phone. Does anyone know how to get my calendar back please?

    Hello Ronbon13,
    Thank you for the details of the calendar issue you are experiencing on your iPhone 4S.  On an iOS device, you can configure previous events to sync to your device in the Calendar settings. 
    If you go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, you can set your calendars to sync "All Events" or events ranging from 2 weeks back to 6 months back. 
    Several settings in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars affect Calendar and your calendar accounts. These include:
    Syncing of past events (future events are always synced)
    iPhone - Calendar settings

  • New upgrade has created Window mis-skewing, requiring resizing to snap back into position.

    Good Morning.
    I have two issues currently facing me with Firefox. Using a (Ver. 10.6.8) iMac OSx, the first, and more recent (and most annoying) is that since my latest upload of Firefox upgrades (to 5.0.1), all new windows opened show a mis-skewed (out of alignment) window content… until I manually perform a window resizing. Which, almost as soon as I make any movement on the resizing element (lower-right hand portion) of the screen, everything within the window snaps back to full screen size (fully contained/presented); however, I have to do this with each new Window opened???
    Secondly, is that quite some time ago as I was learning my (then) new iMac, I allowed for a Toolbar to embed within Firefox, and in attempting to remove somehow made it appear a second time; I have lived with this since. However, as long as I have your attention, I am going to try to kill two birds with one stone as it were, as I wish to remove BOTH of these annoying tool bars… and not just minimize them by way of their tools.
    If necessary, I can screen capture whatever you may need to assist in this effort.
    Hopefully, this is pretty clean in explanation, but if not… shout!
    Thanks for the time by the way…
