Whenever I click the back arrow after sending an email (ie. ebay) firefox tells me it has to "resend" which means another email gets sent - why is this?

nothing more to be said. this is very annoying

You can avoid that by not going back to that page. You can click the arrow to the right of the Forward button or right click either B/F button to open the tab history list and go back to a previous page to skip that page.

    The home button has by default moved to the right hand edge of the navigation toolbar. You can move it back by right-clicking on a toolbar, choose customize to open the customize toolbar window, then with that window on display you can drag and drop icons to move them.
    If the home icon is not at the right end of the navigation toolbar, use the procedures in the following link to restore it - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Back+and+forward+or+other+toolbar+items+are+missing

  • If you don't get the 'Replied' arrow after sending?

    Does it mean there was a problem sending the email, if the grey, curved arrow doesn't appear next to the message you are replying to (even if the email then appears in your Sent folder)?
    Message was edited by: Steve P.

    I posted this in response to another matter: [*Little reply icon has stopped showing replies*|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11051794#11051794| Little reply icon has stopped showing replies]
    but think this is more likely to be my problem. \[NB: using Mail 3.6 (936) \]
    If I use the Reply button(s), compose the message and then Send it, the Reply is correctly linked to the original email with the 'little reply (arrow) icon'. I can later click on this icon to directly open its Reply.
    If however I Save the Reply (to Drafts) and later resume editing before Sending it, this thread linkage is (irritatingly) not made.
    It doesn't seem to matter whether I close the Reply composition window or not, Saving it still loses the linkage between the original email and the reply.
    As a result it becomes much more difficult to link up reply threads.
    This seems to have been a problem with various versions of Mail from at least OSX 10.5.6

  • When i click the edit tool on iPhoto, iDVD opens up every time. Now i am not able to use my edit tool. Why is this happening?

    I cannot edit any of my photos in iPhoto. When I click the edit tool on iPhoto, iDVD opens up every single time in my iMac toolbar. I cannot edit, crop or make changes to my photos. Is anything corrupt in my computer? Thanks in advance..

    Check the Preferences settings in iPhoto. You may have set iDVD as external editor.
    Set "Preferences > Advanced > Edit Photos" to "In iPhoto".

  • In previous versions, I could type a partial address in the address bar -- say, nytimes or amazon -- and it would go to the correct site after I hit enter. With Firefox 6, it just goes to Google. How do I get that older, more efficient function back?

    After typing the partial address, I do get a dropdown that usually includes the correct, full address in the first listing. Also, the sites are all in my bookmarks folder.

    You can also do this without an extension by modifying a pref on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    You can modify the pref <b>keyword.URL</b> on the <b>about:config</b> page to use a Google Lucky search.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Keyword.URL
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Location_Bar_search
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />

    I want to return to the original search page without having to click the back arrow repeatedly to get back from where I have been searching

    The Back/Forward button drop-down arrow marker was removed from Firefox.
    To get the tab history drop-down list, you can:
    *right-click the Back/Forward button
    *HOLD down the left-click mouse button on the Back/Forward button until the list appears (about 1 second)
    *Add back the drop-down marker by installing this Add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/

  • When i use the back arrow I have to click twice, what is wrong

    I dont like the new toolbar any way to go back to the old one.
    When I click the back arrow I have to click it twice , what is wrong

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions 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")
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

  • There used to be a feature on the 'back' arrow; a small tiny down click arrow where i could choose a specific recent page to go back to. it saves hitting and reloading old pages i want to skip. what can i do now?

    at the top left corner of the tool bar, there is a 'back' arrow and a 'forward' arrow. before the latest software upgrade to firefox, i used a teeny tiny 'down' arrow that was to the right of the 'forward' arrow. when i clicked on the tiny 'down' arrow, it showed me a list of all the pages that had recently been opened; not just a website i might have been visiting, but all the pages i had navigated to on that website. i used the 'down' arrow as a shortcut to get back to a specific page which out having to click the 'back' arrow like ten times or more. i would really, really, really like for you to put that feature back, or tell me what i can do instead. thanks.

    You're welcome.

  • The Back Arrow is not working properly in hotmail, using Firefox browser

    I have to click the back arrow twice to get it to work. And then it doesn't take me to the previous page I was on. It takes me to my In box. It was very useful when I had my messages sorted to show only "Unread Messages". Hitting the back arrow allowed me to go back to that list without resorting. It works fine in Internet Explorer and has only stopped working in Firefox in the past week or so. Perhaps after the last upgrade.

    Were you using -moz-box-shadow? Surprise! You now need to drop the -moz prefix and use just box-shadow as described in this page: [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/box-shadow box-shadow - MDN]. Actually, if you want the shadow in Firefox 3.5-3.6, you need both properties. Sigh.

  • Issue with Safari and using the back arrow with multiple tabs open

    I open multiple tabs in Safari but when I'm in a tab browsing and I hit the back arrow, in the new version of Safari, it doesn't just go back to the previous page in the tab, it completely backs out of all the tabs. What am I doing wrong?
    I have a PC running Win 7 and the lastest version of Safari.  I launch Safari which opens to my home page (CNN). I then go the News on my menu bar and select Open in Tabs - then tabs for 6 news sites open up. However if I go to one of the tabs and start navigating around the sight and I want to back up a page I click the back arrow like I have always done in previous versions of Safari but instead of backing up 1 page in the tab I'm in, it collapses all the tabs and I'm back with only the CNN tab still open. Its frustrating not being able to backup on page and I can figure out what's going on. I've use Safari for sometime now but only this version is giving me this problem. I tried resetting and reinstalling Safari but still get the same problem.  Any ideas? Its like I'm backing out of tabs instead of pages.

    Thanks for your quick response.
    1) I have the Block Pop UP windows option turned off
    2) I switched Safari to 32 -bit mode and rebooted my iMac but I still can't get the CBS videos to run
    The exact message I get in the Hulu or CBS box is:
    The video you have requested is either unavailable or is being blocked by an ad blocker installed in your browser.
    I have the same problem with the Safari, Firefox and Opera (all are the latest versions.

    Do you still have the Bookmarks Toolbar visible with the bookmarks on it?
    If that is the case then see:
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Restore+the+default+Smart+Bookmarks+Folders
    Otherwise check this:
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible:
    *Firefox > Options
    *"View > Toolbars"
    Open the Customize window to set which toolbar items to display:
    *View > Toolbars > Customize
    *Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout
    *Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them 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

  • On logged in sites when i click the back button im no longer logged in until i refresh

    On sites where i am logged in, eg forums or sites where i have saved the layout such as the BBC website whenever i click the back button to go to the previous page i am no longer logged in and my preferences have been cleared and the page has gone back to its defaults state. if i refresh the page its all back to how i set it and i am once again logged in.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Friday evening/Saturday morning.

    Hello Jeni.
    That's how Firefox works. When you go ''back'' to a page where you were not logged in yet, you get logged off. Although it doesn't always work and if you refresh the page you get logged in again.
    The basis of this behavior is that clicking "Back" will take you to a page that is stored in cache, and Firefox doesn't have (in most cases) to redownload the page information again (this is good because it speeds up browsing). You can disable this behavior, but it will mean that every time you press "back", Firefox will re-load the page again, and it will not be instantaneous like it is now.

  • Clicking the back button now causes a drop down of past sites to show up in addition to moving back a page. It won't go away until clicking somewhereIrritating

    Whenever I click the back button, the browser will go back a page and also open a drop down of past pages. This drop down won't go away until I click somewhere. It is irritating and it never used to have this functionality. In fact, my laptop at work does not do this. I am using 37.0.2. Is there an option somewhere to disable this? I don't mind having the drop down, but not EVERY time I click back.

    Today, two other users reported issues with the back-forward history list dropping down if they hovered the mouse pointer over the back or forward button -- without clicking -- and then moved the pointer downwards. One user was on a touchpad, I don't know about the other user. Are you experiencing anything like that?

  • After I open FireFax 4 to my home page and then try to navigate elsewhere, I do not have access to the back arrow to return to the home page. What setting is causing this to happen?

    Toshiba Satellite Laptop
    Vista Home Premium
    Firefox 4.0 recently installed
    Every time I load Firefox, my home page comes up.
    After going to another page, I do not see the back arrow highlighted, and the only way to get to the home page, I have to click on the Home button in the upper right part of the screen and get a new tab. Annoying - yes. Practical - no. I even uninstalled 4 and reloaded with the same results each time.

    Then you need a clean install.
    First export your bookmarks to a html file. (Bookmarks/Unsorted bookmarks will bring you History page where you can export your bookmarks). Note down your add-ons too.
    Uninstall the old FF using free software like Revo Uninstaller. This will delete all the root directories and registries of old FF.
    Now download the latest version of FF and install it. You can re-import your bookmarks from your saved html file.
    You may still have to do the fix in my first post.
    Post here whether this worked for you.

  • After I search using Google in Firefox, and hit the back arrow button to return to the main homepage I use, the browser won't take me there. Instead, I'm left at the initial results page from my search.

    Assume I start at Google as my homepage. I search for Federal Reserve. Google then brings up a number of selections for Federal Reserve. I can scroll through to more search results on page 2, 3, 4, etc. Now suppose I want to use the back arrow button to go back to Google as my homepage. I’ve found what I was looking for. When I try to get back to Google, the furthest back I can go is to page 1 of the search results. The browser won’t take me back to the original starting page which was Google. Also, it doesn’t matter what the starting page or initial page was. The browser will only take me back to the initial page after the original homepage. By the way, I did not install any new software or applications prior to this problem occurring. My guess is that it may have something to do with the function keys at the top of the keyboard. But I can’t figure out what the problem is with the function keys. It’s only a guess.
