Updated to 3.0 - sluggish responses and "back" button no longer working?
Hi all, first post - I'd like to know if others are having similar experiences after upgrading to 3.0 on a 2nd gen ipod touch.
First off, when playing music, the "back" button always used to take me back to the previous song if the current song had only just started. However, now when I press "back", I get a random song, just like pressing "forward" in shuffle mode - so I cannot go back to re-rate a song for example. I want my "back" button back!
Second, does anyone else find the responses to the "forward" and "back" buttons slow? There's like a half-second delay while the ipod "thinks" about performing the action, and before the screen updates (scrolls to the next album cover or details screen).
Hoping there will be an official update ASAP to address these issues!
Anytime you have problems like this, you should go through this routine:
1. Restart your iPod - Hold the Sleep/Wake button down until you see the red slider - turn it off. To turn it back on, use the Sleep/Wake button and you will see an Apple icon as it restarts.
2. Reset your iPod - Hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home buttons down together until you see an Apple logo (takes about 10 seconds). Let your iPod restart.
3. And finally, if those don't work for you, restore your iPod in iTunes. Everything will be wiped off and reloaded - and no, you won't lose anything.
BTW, broken WiFi seems to be a very individual problem and there appear to be some work arounds. Battery life doesn't seem to be a general issue but again, an individual problem.

Firefox url goes grey, and back button no longer works.
Ok so most annoying problem EVER!! Ok so I have this problem where I will be running firefox, browsing the net, and then all of the sudden the url bar will grey out and only the domain root will be solid.
Once it does this, I cannot use the back button, in fact from there on out, many url's will not even show up in the navigation.
The browser works just fine then out of nowhere will start pulling this.
An example would be
[http://www.cnatrainingcertificationclasses.com http://www.cnatrainingcertificationclasses.com]/topics-you-can-expect-in-your-cna-classes/275/ , and then the end would be grayed out. Soooo maddening
I also am running a few addons, but I need all of these addons what can I do?Try:

Since updating to 3.6.15 today, back button no longer works and FF doesn't remember URLs. Not just that memory of previous URLs got wiped out, it still doesn't remember the ones I've typed in since I updated. And No back button, it's really hard to use.
I went thru all the settings and could not find a way to fix this problem. What is up? I've never had this happen in any version of IE, FF, or Chrome.
Can I get back previous version? Until then, it's Chrome and IE for me.
I'll be happy to delete any plug-ins if it will make this problem go away.
THANKS in advance!Thanks. This didn't solve te problem but it seemed to have solved itself. all of a sudden it started working properly, without me even closing FF and starting it up again. Thanks Cor-el, if it happens again I'll try your solution.

This is the second major problem I have had with this phone (first was the SIM card issue where I had no service because the software of the phone wouldn't read the SIM card, has been fixed by an update I downloaded in December).
I really would like to know what my options are, and if I am eligible to get a new phone. This has been by far the worst phone I have ever experienced and am disappointed that I am forced into a two year contract with a phone that has consistently failed me. I am a college kid who is going through job/phone interviews and it is very important that I can rely on my personal phone.callahan.214,
If the home and back buttons are not working it has to be difficult to use the phone. Let's get that device working. Back up your phone and complete a reset: http://vz.to/1uBz20R . Before installing any applications test out the phone for a day to ensure it is working properly. Let us know how it is working.

the back button no longer works. I have disabled all add-ons,rebooted & reset the defaults for the browser and nothing has changed. This happens on all webpages.How do I get the back button to light up again?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
*Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

When using Firefox as my browser, my "back" button no longer works? And by the way...getting help is a real pain in the butt on this site!!!!!
see -- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Kill_application
which explains how to completely exit (quit) your Mozilla application
Try closing Firefox completely
*Close Firefox properly '''File > Exit''', not with the "X" which just closes the window.
*Use the Windows Task Manager "Processes" tab to make sure that firefox.exe is not running and also that the plugin-container.exe is not running.
If that does not work, try restarting the system.
If still no luck try restoring bookmarks from last backup, or better create your own .json backup and restore from that.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox#Creating_bookmark_backups
*''If you had to go this far, please provide feedback if restoring bookmarks alone fixed the problem. I think I may have done that once with success, but never see that suggested -- I'd try most anything to not lose history or bookmarks. But then I could restore files from my profile and restore latest bookmarks backup from current profile.''
The following will result in complete loss of history if it comes down to deleting places.sqlite, so rename files rather than deleting. With Firefox down.
Of course you have backups of your profile you could replace rename and
replace those files instead.

The "back" button no longer works in certain specific situations on certain specific websites -- especially on the very website on which I need to use it very frequently. This has been going on for a couple of weeks.
Also, I noticed today that the "clear cache now" command doesn't seem to be working. Formerly, when I cleared the cache, I had to re-login to those websites that normally "remember" my login (because clearing the cache erased that "memory") -- but today, after using the "clear cache now" command, those websites still "remember" my login, which leads me to believe the cache didn't get cleared. Is there any other way to check whether it got cleared?
I was attempting to clear the cache in the faint hope that this might help the above "back" button problem, as no one has yet given me a solution for this that has worked. One person suggested having Firefox re-create the possibly damaged "places.sqlite" and "places.sqlite-journal" files. I tried this, but there was no change to the problem.
I think this problem started around the time I had a few Firefox crashes while using YouTube and doing something else on the computer at the same time.
I just today learned about the "crash signature" -- how to look it up, and to include it in a forum question. However, the crash log did not show these recent crashes, only some others from a few months ago. So, I'm unable to show the crash signature for this.
I'm guessing there's a chance that upgrading to a newer version of Firefox might fix this problem -- but I hesitate to do that, because it occurs to me that it also may be possible that changing the program before fixing this might make it harder to fix. I don't have enough knowledge of this software to know which is more likely, and I don't like to try things at random, in ignorance of the possible results. Also, after reading today several other forum comments from people who are unhappy with their Firefox upgrades, I hesitate to upgrade for that reason, also.Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.<br />

In updating for FFX 6 and 7, the next and prev buttons no longer work in slideshows on Yahoo news and similar sites. Sometimes the status bar shows the links as javascript: void or :null. Sometimes longer links. All javaconsole add-ins are shown as incompatible with these version of FFX.
i woudnt suggest it, but if your warranty is up it could just be a bad connection from the wheel...what generation do you have? my 4th generation 20 gig ceased to function and it was because somehow one of the cables had a bad connection. i took it to the apple store and they gave me an estimate for something i wasnt willing to pay on a 2 year old ipod so i just winged dissasembleing it and after taking apart the whole thing and reassembling it worked fine.

Apple TV update 5.1 broke chapter forward and back buttons.
Ever since updating to Apple TV software 5.1 (iOS 6), the chapter forward and backwards buttons just make the video stop playing and go to the movie/episode selection screen. Is anyone else having this problem?
Boy I am glad I found this thread. I am having this exact same issue with my Harmony Remote and Apple TV after the latest update. I thought my Harmony Remote was broken since the Apple Remote still functions correctly. Specifically, the chapter forward and backwards buttons do not work correctly, they skip the song back a few seconds. Or, if at the beginning of a song, they skip backwards to a seemingly random track on the album. Thanks to this thread, I submitted a bug report at http://www.apple.com/feedback/appletv.html. Hopefully they will send out an update to fix this. I thought I had dropped my Harmony one too many times on the floor and it finally sketched out. Whew

Forward and Back Buttons Don't Work
Greetings,
My forward and back buttons on the mouse don't work in PSE 7. Instead I always have to click the forward or back buttons on the toolbar, or use keyboard shortcuts (alt+left arrow or alt+right arrow).
Does anyone else have the same problem?
Thanks,
Shane.
Photoshop Elements 7
Windows Vista Home Premium SP2This is working for me. The forward and backward buttons on the toolbar would work only with pressing of Alt button i.e. Alt+Left arrow.
Suppose you are in Single image view, and press left and right arrow keys, application would switch to previous and next photo respectively.
Please let me know if you have other concern.

Why does the foward and back button no longer show page history ?
the older version of mozilla/firefox you had the option of seeing previous pages beside the foward and back buttons. rather than going back to each page. also the web pages that were suggested for your search let you know if the web page or site good or bad.
The arrow to open the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons has been removed in Firefox 4 and later.
Use one of these methods to open the tab history list:
* Right click on the Back or Forward button
* Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens
You can look at this extension:

Spamming has made app reviews pointless and report button no longer works
The app reviews have become useless to me because of all of the spamming. And to make matters worse, the report button no longer works so the spamming posts can't be reported. Who do we contact to report spam?
My guess is that you have a scope problem. By putting the button inside a movieclip you have made the buttons scope the same as that clip.
So if you add a trace inside the release event handler, what do you get?
trace("My current scope is: "+this);
I'm guessing it is "_level0.mc_anim_backdrops_menu," right?
So since you are using the global function of gotoAndPlay() it is looking for that label in the current timeline and not finding it.
You should probably use the MovieClip method and specifiy which timeline it should look in.
_root.gotoAndPlay("Why");
_level0.gotoAndPlay("Why")
_parent.gotoAndPlay("Why");
both would probably work. I would never use the first two, other than to make sure that there wasn't something else going on... -

On 3 machines now the Windows Store is broken. The Install and Back buttons don't work
Originally reported here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-windows_store/on-3-machines-now-the-windows-store-is-broken-the/8bafdc7a-a708-4012-a4f1-b98ab8788c28
Advised to post here instead.
Hi there
On three separate Windows 8.1 Professional machines now, I've had an issue where the Store stops working properly for no apparent reason (no error messages or anything). The store opens, and I can browse apps, and view individual apps, but
once in the app view I cannot click on the Install button or the back buttons.
They "light up" as if being pressed, but they don't actually do anything.
I've tried all the various troubleshooting, including the Windows App troubleshooter, wsreset, re-registering the store files using powershell, and renaming the cache folder in my user profile. No effect.
If I sign into the PCs as another user, then I don't get the issue. As such something is getting corrupted in the profile.
We only have around 9 or 10 Windows 8.1 PCs deployed at our organisation for testing, and three of them have had this fault, which doesn't inspire confidence. As such, we cannot progress with further deployment until we have a fix in place that
doesn't involve wiping the user profile.
Any ideas please?Hi FangZhou CHEN
I've discovered the cause of this error after much searching.
Based on your suggestion, I checked the Event Viewer and found a string of "Application Error" entries similar to this:
Faulting application name: WSHost.exe, version: 6.3.9600.17093, time stamp: 0x534765e9
Faulting module name: sxwmon64.dll, version: 4.5.2608.0, time stamp: 0x52b2a853
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x00000000000257ff
Faulting process id: 0xf40
Faulting application start time: 0x01cfeeb1cc6d035e
Faulting application path: C:\WINDOWS\WinStore\WSHost.exe
Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\sxwmon64.dll
Report Id: 19ee9a1c-5aa5-11e4-8259-600292638f85
Faulting package full name:
Faulting package-relative application ID:
Presumably the WSHost,exe process is critical to the Store and "Metro" apps?
The offending dll file causing this process to fail, sxwmon64.dll belongs to a peice of security software on our machines called Lumension Endpoint Security (we're running version 4.5 SR2). We use this to control removable media (USB) and CDRW access for
our employees.
If I rename that particular DLL file, the store and the calendar app which I was also having issues with (it was blank), spring back into life.
