[SOLVED] Where did the arrows on the scrollbars go?

I'm currently using Cinnamon (Gnome 3) with the default Adwaita theme. It's the base install that I haven't customized anything to.
One of my first problems was the lack of the up and down arrows on the top and bottom of the scrollbar -- ie like in Firefox and Gnome Terminal
I was able to add the arrows within Firefox by modification of the /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-2.0/gtkrc file and specifically changing the sections:
GtkScrollbar::has-backward-stepper = 1
GtkScrollbar::has-forward-stepper = 1
Although this solved my lack of arrows with Firefox, I still don't have any up/down arrows in programs like gnome shell and within the file manager. Is there any suggestion on where I can make a modification to add these? Gnome Tweak Tool didn't really help.

I had been modifying the global /usr setting.
This is the best solution I have found - in the users home directory!
Pick up your changes without logging out:
Close terminal window
Hit ALT-F2
type restart
hit enter

How do i get the tab on the right where i type in words to search to come back? It disappeared, as did the arrows on the right.

I was online, the page I was on redirected me to another site. when that happened my bar changed. The space on the left totype in words to search disappeared as did the arrows on the left side of the bar.

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"
* 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.

Let's say that I browsed through five pages and I want to go to the 4th one. I used to be able to click on the arrow in the menu bar to see that last pages browsed, now it shows pages I go to most frequently, where did the other pages go?

In the previous version of Firefox, I used to be able to browse any number of pages - for example, let's say I went to google. I started a search and then went to one of the links, browsed around the site for a while (each page registering in the history) and then I wanted to go back to the original google search. In the OLD version of Firefox, all I had to do was go to the arrow at the end of the navigation window, and I'd see all the places I had been and I could select one to go back to it. Now, when i hit that down arrow, I see an list of pages I go to frequently, not the pages I've been to in backward order. I really miss that feature. I am using 4.0.1.

You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

Where did Lion Go from the app store?

Where did Lion Go from the app store? it's gone. I my MacBook Pro can't run Mountain Lion but it could run Lion. But it's gone!

If you need to purchase Lion call 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. Ask for a Sales Representative. They will check your Apple ID, and email you a code and instructions. The cost is $29.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download.

I am having a problem moving across cells in Microsoft Excel. When I use the arrow keys, the sheet moves, instead of moving to the next cell. Would anyone have any thoughts on this, please?

Hi,
Did you find a way to solve your problem ? We have exactly the same for one application and we are using the same version of HFM : 11.1.2.1.
This problem is only about webforms. We can correctly input data through Data Grids or Client 32.
Thank you in advance for your answer.

Hi Mary,
I don't remember those arrows in 10.6, only 10.7 & up!?
I have 10.6.8, as you do. To make your Safari full screen, make sure you have the left hand side of your safari page moved all the way to the left. Then move your cursor to the BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER of the safari page, and simply drag your page towards the lower right hand corner of the screen. NOTE: you will see a series of lines on the bottom right corner of the page, indicating where to place you cursor arrow.

I use to be able to enter a URL and hit enter and Firefox would go to that site. Now I must hit the arrow in the address bar to go to the web page. How can I change that back

I can no longer just hit enter to go to a web page. Now I have to hit the arrow on the right side of the address bar.

There is a known issue for Firefox 10 on Windows. It involves AVG Safe Search making the "Enter" key not work in the Location/URL bar. AVG needs to fix the problem with their Add-on for Firefox.

Occasionally, some of the image borders turn dark grey (medium grey is the default) and then random other images cannot be opened with a double click. They only open when selected using the arrows on the keyboard. They also cannot be moved to collections. Anyone have a solution for this?

When you say "could not be opened"- what are you referring to? A double click of the mouse should view the clicked image in Loupe view- the same as pressing [E] on the keyboard for an enlarged view. (And a second double-click will take you back to library grid view.)
To "open" an image in the Development module requires you to select the image then press [D] or click on the [Develop] button.
When you say "could not be ...moved" -what are you referring to? Are you trying to move an image file from its place in a folder to another folder? Are you just wanting it in a collection? When you drag an image to a collection you are only placing a link to the image in the collection- not actually moving any file. The image will stay exactly where it is in its original folder and will remain as a thumbnail preview in the Library Grid view.
Are you having any "mouse" problems that may be changing its actions in LR ?
Do you see an exclamation mark on any image borders ?
Let's keep working on this. I am curious to see you find an answer.

The arrow at the top Left of the search line has been replaced by a sign which can be used to add bookmarks. How can I restore the arrow at the top left to go back to the previous page?

When Safari is opened on my MacBook Pro, the arrow at the top left ( of the search bar where I type what web site I am searching) has been replaced by the sign + which I can click on to add a bookmark... How can I restore the arrow that I can use to access the previous page?
What should I should do?

Go up to the main Safari menu bar above, and select "View."
Then when that bar comes down, select "Customize Toolbar."
Then select the arrow icon, and just drag it into your toolbar.

Dear all, Since a week ago I observe that when I press the button for my macbook air to start a nap, first the screen turns to black but I can see the arrow (pointer). And only after few seconds the arrow and the screen really shut down.

Dear all, Since a week ago I observe that when I press the button for my macbook air to start a nap, first the screen turns to black (although I can see it is stil on) and I can see the arrow (pointer). Only after 15 seconds the arrow and the screen really shut down. It did not occur before, as a matter of fact it was instantaneous. What could be the problem?

Note the time in your Mac's menu bar or some other accurate timepiece. Then, press the button to put the MBA to sleep. Wait until the cursor disappears and for all indications that the Mac appears to be asleep.
Then, wake the Mac the way you normally wake it.
Then, find the Console app - it is in your Utilities folder and looks like this
You can find it by selecting Utilities from the Finder's Go menu.
Open Console.
If the log list column on the left is not already displayed, show the log list by selecting Show Log List from Console's View menu.
Locate system.log in the list and select it. Many date and time-stamped entries will appear, hundreds of them, and you must find the entries relevant to your Mac's sleep problem. To do that type the words sleep cause in the Filter field at the upper left of the Console window:
That will cause all log entries to be hidden, except for the entries containing those words. The last entry in the list will correspond to the last time you woke the Mac. It will have a time stamp in the form hh:mm:ss later than the time you noted in the Mac's menu bar prior to putting it to sleep.
Make note of that exact time in hours, minutes, and seconds.
Next: Clear the filter field by clicking the x in the above screenshot. It should then look like this:
All previously displayed log entries will reappear.
Next: Find the log entry that corresponds exactly to the time you noted in hours, minutes, and seconds containing the words "previous sleep cause". You may have to scroll up or down a considerable distance. When you find that line, select it and drag your cursor up and prior to the entry corresponding to the approximate time you noted before putting the Mac to sleep. This will result in a selection of perhaps 50 to 100 lines or so.
One or more of them, along with their time stamps, may reveal the reason for the fifteen second delay.
Copy and paste those log entries in a reply.
Most of the entries will be cryptic but will contain information you might consider personal such as your Mac's name. If you do not want that information to appear, delete or obscure it when posting your reply. Leave enough information so that the entries can be deciphered.

It sounds like your phone is in recovery mode, which means it needs to be restored through iTunes on your computer in order to get out of it.

What's the arrow in the cloud that points upward or downward?

What's the arrow in the cloud that points upward or downward?

So if the down arrow means it's available to download, what do I do to actually download it? I'm trying to download two apps and have same problem on both.

My macbook pro (2010 13inch) is really laggy when I'm using apps like iTunes and safari. the arrow on the screen seems to not respond and is laggy and when viewing videos it can be really laggy. I just want to know if it was a problem i could fix, thanks.

You might start with:
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
If the above reveals nothing helpful, then create a new user account. Log out of your account and log into the new account. Do the problems cease?

What happened to the 'arrow' in the corner of highlighted text on a web page that allowed you to instantly search google etc without having to copy & paste - in FFv4 ?

Ah right - many thanks ...
Cant see the Google toolbar extension anywhere on FFv4
Cant see it on the 'extensions page either ?
Do you have a link for it at all.
Thanks
