The back button is disabled even though I clearly visted the link through Google

When I search for something in Google, and find a particular link interesting, I view it. But when I want to go back to my search list, it seems like the back button is disabled and it won't allow me to go back. This is obviously painful, if I am searching for a variety of things. The back button works perfectly sometimes but others it just doesn't. Can anyone explain this odd behavior?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons (McAfee SiteAdvisor) is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

  • Page back button is disabled after clicking to another web page, causing me to lose the original page.

    When I click to follow a link from one of my home pages, the back button becomes disabled. This has the effect of "disappearing" the first page and "stranding" the link I traveled to.
    The only work around is enter the site again. Subsequent clicks from the page don't cause it to disappear again.

    I would suspect a slightly incompatible addon of causing that to happen.
    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?<br/> ''A troubleshooting mode.''<br />
    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 to open it again.''
    If not, see this: <br />

  • Accidently installed NoScript, can't get rid of it and JavaScript has been disabled even though it says it's enabled - help!

    I accidently installed NoScript when trying to remove adverts/pop-ups. Now it's causing problems on various sites I regularly use and I can't get rid of it. It doesn't show up on Tools/Add- ons so I can disable and JavaScript has been disabled, even though it shows as 'Enabled'.
    Help would be appreciated.

    The usual method for uninstalling extensions and themes is by using the Add-ons manager for your Mozilla application, as follows.
    # Click "Tools -> Add-ons
    # Click on the Extensions or Themes button on the top.
    # Click on the extension or theme you want to uninstall.
    # Click Uninstall.
    # Restart your Mozilla application.

  • "Check for updates" is disabled even though I'm signed in as administrator.

    I would like to upgrade to the newest Firefox version, but it's not allowing me to (& check for updates is disabled) even though I'm signed in as the administrator. How do I change this? How do I get to the installer preferences?

    I'm running Firefox 4.0.1 under Windows 7 Service Pack 1. If there is any other relevant information I missed out, please tell me! :-)
    Yes, a re-installation would most probably solve the problem but I'm to curious to do that. I want to know why some settings are unavailable even though I run Firefox as an Administrator. :-)
    I have attached a screen dump of the About-window (Firefox->Help->About Firefox). The button for updating Firefox is replaced by the text "Uppdateringar är inaktiverade av systemadministratören" which translate to "Updates are inactivated by the system administrator".
    The other dump is of the updates settings (Firefox->Settings->Settings->Advanced->Updates). As you can see, the options for automatically updates is not available. This dump correspond to https://support.mozilla.com/media/uploads/gallery/images/2011-06-01-08-15-43-7e6d8a.png
    Both dumps are done when Firefox is ran as administrator.

  • Agent ready Radio button remains selected even though agent is on call.

    Hi
    issue
    Agent logsin to Interacton center and system by default puts him in to NOT Ready Status.
    Agent changes the status from Not ready to Ready.
    Agent receives a call via queue
    Agent accepts call via interaction center
    Ready Radio button reamins selected even though customer care agent is on phone with Customer.
    In idle situation the radio button should move from ready to not ready or any other state.
    Landscape : SAP CRM  / AMC MCIS / CISCO IPCC.
    we did our system restarts still issue is not resolved.
    Has anyone ever noticed this issue.
    any Help or guidnace is really appreciated.  Thanks in advance
    Regards

    Hi Alok,
    That behavior may be just how your CMS and Telephony system behaves. In all likelihood you are not going to get a queued call at that point, since you already are on a queued call. As long as the state display is correct once the call is ended, that is the most important thing. I have seen some telephony systems where even the hard phone shows ready during the call, and doesn't change modes until after the call is ended. Anyway, you should check with your CMS vendor - in this case AMC MCIS.
    Sincerely,

    If your Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons, you have to contact Apple Support. Only the Account Security Team can activate it again. See this webpage on how to contact Apple Support in your country: There are either telephone numbers given or an email form:
         Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
    Explain, that you need help with an account security problem.
    You can also try to email the iTunes Support using this form:

  • HT4914 I have several songs in my ITunes library that show as ineligible to be uploaded to ICloud, even though most of them were purchased through the ITunes Store. Has anyone else experienced this and figured out why?

    I have several songs in my ITunes library that show as ineligible to be uploaded to ICloud via Match, even though most of them were purchased through the ITunes Store. Has anyone else experienced this and figured out why?

    I had the exact same issue!! Seriously p*ssed me off when I checked out my ITunes purchased items (via my computer) and noticed that most of the additional tracks listed on my IPhone playlist was listed there too. However, I never authorized any purchases!!  (I have actually written Apple Support asking for a full refund of all tracks listed on my purchased list)
    Be careful when you swipe your finger to the left/right on those "additional" tracks on your IPhone playlist... I'm pretty sure that the cloud symbol is an option to download or automatically buy those tracks.
    Solution for the problem:
    1 - go to your IPhone settings
    2 - choose "iTunes & App Store"
    3 - go to "Show All" & "Music"
    4 - turn off "Music" by moving the bar to the left (it should be a white color once you turn it off)
    Should solve your problem :~)

  • Can't sync all ringtones, some get sync, and some don't even though I clearly have them all checked.

    I've created my AAC file and then changed it to m4r mode and then I copied it back to the tones section of iTunes. Everything is fine at this stage. Then when I try to sync all my tones, some get sync and some don't even though I clearly have all of them checked. So I click the all tones box instead and sync, then other tones which previously have not been synced are synced and those that were synced previously do not get synced. I've tried everything, from making duplicates of songs to even deleting my tones and re-syncing. I've taken over an hour to sync and still unsuccessful. Why is it so complicated just to sync a few tones? Is apple trying to discourage customers from using custom ringtones and only those from the iTunes store? Im so ready to just throw my phone... It's so much easier to transfer tones over using an android phone since I dont have to use some stupid software by android and sync when i can just drag and drop.
    SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP!!!
    Thanks in advance

    What fixed it for me:
    On your computer, open iTunes > My iPhone (or whatever name you gave your iPhone) > "Music" page
    Uncheck "Sync Music"
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
    Let it run and finish
    Uncheck the box for every song, playlist, etc.
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right) (This step may be unnecessary, but I did it and got the result I wanted.)
    Let it run and finish
    Check the boxes for the music you want on your iPhone
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
    Let it run and finish
    See if that doesn't work for you.  I tried a lot of things that did nothing, but this seems to have fixed it, and quickly.

  • TS4050 I am running Windows 8. Although my contacts and notes from my Ipod touch show up on icloud my calendar entries do not show up even though they do show up in my Google calendar and my windows phone calendar. Any suggestions not already covered?

    I am running Windows 8. Although my contacts and notes from my Ipod touch  show up on icloud my calendar entries do not show up even though they do show up in my Google calendar and my windows phone calendar. Any suggestions not already covered in trouble shooting articles?

    As I mentioned earlier, you have to decide which calendar you want to use.  You can either use Google or iCloud, but not both.
    If you want to use your iCloud calendar, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Calendar section) and set this to your iCloud calendar.  After doing so, all new events you add to your calendar will be added by default to your iCloud calendar, and as a result, will appear on icloud.com and your computer (if it is syncing calendars with your iCloud account).
    If, on the other hand, you want to use your Google calendar (as it sounds like you are doing with your iPod), simply add the same Google calendar to your phone and your computer.
