Why do the back/forward arrows no longer work - they are grayed out?

When I start a new Firefox window or tab the back/forward arrows do not work and are grayed out. I can get previous sites by right click. I also get an orange "Firefox" dropdown tab in the upper left corner. It appears as though I have a Firefox window on top of a regular window.

Does not open default site.Needs retry in favorites. Back and forward arrows do not work

Facebook is the defaulkt address but, when I open Firefox thw scrren is blank (bar are present, though). This happens after last review
In addition, back and forward arrows do not work (this has always happened since Firefox 4 beta)

* First to prevent interferences between current and Beta versions, use a specific [[Managing profiles|profile]] for Firefox 4.0 Beta. In your new Beta profile, you can recover all your customizations from your 3.6 profile. See [[Recovering important data from an old profile]].
* Then, if it is not fixed, see [[Back and forward or other toolbar items are missing]].

There's another way.
Right or control click the + then click Remove Item.
Just remembered that keyboard shortcut!
You're welcome

Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine, mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar.

Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine. mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar only and coloured wheel appears.

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.
If extensions aren't causing the problem, see below.
Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found

Try this...
You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...

Where are the back/forward arrows to navigate web site?

<blockquote>Locking duplicate thread. 
Please continue here: [[/questions/840834]]</blockquote>
as I progress through a web site and I want to go back a page and then forward to the page I just left, how do I do this? I do not see back/forward arrows as in other browsers.
Thank you,

If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
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" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
* 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.

Back/Forward button tweak not working

I've tried Rick Stone's Skinny on Skins suggestion for
tweaking the code to make the Back and Forward buttons to work for
navigation. To refresh, the Back and Forward buttons only work for
Previous and Next topics for browse sequences. Back and Forward for
topic navigation are not enabled for WebHelp. The tweaking is
supposed to make it work for Back and Foward. I have tried his
suggestion, and the code resests itself to the original (to support
browse sequences) upon compilation.
Any suggestions?
Danni

Ok, I spoke to soon. The new buttons show up in the Preview
of the edited skin, but when I re-generate, the buttons do not show
up at all once I view the result, however, when I preview them
again in the edited skin dialog box, they are there. Any
suggestions?
I tried to use a different skin and that didn't work. In
addition, I imported some new skins from Adobe's site, and they
aren't showing up in my skin folder in RoboHelp (in my project
folder, labeled !SkinSubFolder!), but are showing up in Windows
Explorer. So I can't choose any of the new skins I've imported. Why
is this happeneing?
This type of thing keeps happening in my project. This has
also happened with my baggage files. I add them, compile, they are
there, and then mysteriously disappear after a little while.
Sometimes I can get them back, most times not. Do you think these
two problems are interrelated?

Why are the back/forwards buttons no longer working after upgrade?

Hi, I recently upgraded from Firefox 3.5 (I believe) to Firefox 4.0.1 and now the back and forwards buttons no longer work. I tried resetting the settings under the toolbars > customize, etc. That didn't work. FYI, I'm using a mac. Any solutions? Thanks in advance...

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

What happened to my back button? Now when I'm browsing on facebook, or any other site, the back/forward buttons are not highlighted to be able to use them?

When I am surfing the net, I have always been able to use my back/forward buttons. Now all of a sudden, they are not available to use, you can still see them, but they are grey, not black, like they once were so that I could click them to go back to a previous page, or forward once I've went back? I don't know what's the problem. I did the most recent firefox update that was sent to me recently. But just noticed this problem today. Thanks for your help.

The back/forward arrrows do not highlight. I cannot go back to a previous website. It lost all my history also. I have uploaded the latest version, still no usable back arrow.

I tried restarting my Mac after re-installing Firefox. Could this be a virus that is screwing up Firefox? I can still use Safari.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Since Apple updated the App store website a day or two ago users with a 1G iPod have been unable to download apps directly to their iPods. I have not seen a solution yet. you can still download on your computer and sync them to your iPod.
