Why have my back and forward functions stopped working?

My forward and back arrows have stopped working and I am not able to go back or forward even with a mouse. The mouse is alright with all other browsers.

Using the " Safe Mode " the issue of no back or forward arrows or functions, now is the question of why did they stop? I don't have a clue as to why. The problem started just before going to 8.0.1 and it was fine always up 'till all of a sudden the issue reared its ugly head.

Why have iplayer, music and YouTube apps stopped working on iPad 1?

These have all stopped working on my iPad this week, any ideas on why and what to do?

I also have an iPad1 and my YouTube app keeps giving me an "authentication failed" error. It was working fine up until this morning. I have tried everything I can find online to regain access including: verifying that I am using the correct user name and password, activating 2-step verification and several attempts at application-specific passwords...no luck so far. I am going to try to resist the urge to keep trying for a while, hoping that maybe allowing it time to reset will help???
I do not usually use the Music app, but it seems to work okay for me. I only have a single podcast on there, but it played okay when I tried it. And I do not have iPlayer, so no idea about that one.
Of course Apple online support is no help because my device is "too old" and I can't afford to spend $20 for them to talk to me. Any ideas or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!

Why are my back and forward buttons not working?

I have restarted firefox with add-ons disabled and then in safe mode and they worked then but when closed firefox and then restarted it they don't work again. I don't know if one of my kids have done something but I am not sure what to do to fix it.

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.

Mobile wifi mouse back and forward functions don't work

I just bought the hp wifi mobile mouse model MOWFFKUL and back and forward functions don't work and it's driving me crazy. I bought it for these specific functions. At first I thought that it was a broken mouse. So I went and returned it, got back home, and the same thing. I set the side buttons to other functrion options and they work. What the hell??? just the back and forward buttons don't. I'm losing my mind big time because I REALLY NEED those buttons/functions to work!! All the regular top buttons functrion fine, it's only the back forward setting that DOESN't WORK.

I restarted my laptop, and the buttons worked! For only 2 minutes. Then nada ever again. What a POS. Come on HP, give a solution. I bought and returned it twice, which makes this my third wifi mouse. What a waste of my time. I think I'm just gonna return this mouse and forget the wifi mouse. Functionality is more important than a freed up USB port. I bought it for the forward/backward buttons specifically. HP used to make wonderful products, but this experience bring that into question now.

Copy and paste function stopped working?

The copy and paste function stopped working on my laptop (ibook g4, OSX 10.3.9). It does not work in any applications, tried MS word, safari, preview.
How do I recover this function?
Thanks.

Hi Magno2002
Your Finder may have lost contact with the clipboard, so try this.
In ~/library/preferences locate these two files and trash them
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
To re-establish them, log out and log back in again.
You will need to reset your finder and sidebar as you had them before.

I can't make or take phone calls, but i can message and use data. Has this happened to anyone else? I've gone through three Samsung Galaxy S5's in the past three days, two of which have this problem and one just stopped working all together.

My phone doesn't have any cellular phone functions...but it CAN send text messages and access data. Has this happened to anyone else? I've gone through three Samsung Galaxy S5's in the past three days, the last two have this problem and the first stopped working all together. I've had new sim cards put in, ive done hard resets on the phone, i've rebooted the phone, done battery pulls, and tech support has reset the signal to my phone. Nothing has worked. (I just "upgraded" <- lol.... and my old phone IS turned off.)

Im in 79707. So to recap my whole case: I upgraded my device using the verizon wireless website. I received my phone and switched my old SIM card from my Droid Razr Maxx HD into the new Galaxy S5. Everything worked fine until the next morning (May 31st) when I woke up and the phone wouldn't turn on. I took the phone to the local Verizon store and they were also unable to turn it on. They issued me a new Galaxy S5 (referred to as phone 2) and switched my SIM card into that one.
With PHONE 2 i was able to make calls and receive calls, along with text and data for approximately four hours. After that, i was unable to use the phone function of the device, but text and data were still functioning. I took PHONE 2 back to the Verizon store where they attempted to hard reset the phone twice, they also installed two new SIM cards at the store. After this they would get the same error, which is the phone just reading "Dialing..." after attempting to make a call. The Verizon associate declared the phone "DOA" and issued me another Galaxy S5 (referred to as PHONE 3).
PHONE 3 worked well, with phone text and data featured intact from when I received it on the after noon of the 31st until approximately 2:30PM on June 1st. I contacted Verizon Tech Support via Gmail phone to attempt the correct the problem. They reset the connection, had me do a battery pull, had me close the "phone" application, and erase the data and catche, then restart the phone. All of which had no effect. My phone is still able to receive texts and use data (even with wifi off) it simply cannot make or take phone calls. all it says is "dialing..." when I attempt to make a call. When other phones call my device it rings once on their end and directs them to voicemail, PHONE 3 does not ring on my end.
I have made sure my old phone is completely powered down.

Need back and forward functions for moves

I have a working tictactoe game with implemented back and forward moves buttons, but i don't have any idea how to create the two functions using linked lists. can anyone please suggest these functions and provide some code snippets?

Java4Geek wrote:
that's the problem! i'm not using anything for move storing (yet) because I am confused about what exactly needs to be stored for a move. should be something like a node of (player, player's move, opponent's move)?why would you want to store the move AND the opponent's move in a single node? (not saying you're wrong, just wondering why you'd want to do that.)
Think about the information that you'd need to know in order to go backward or forwards.
Would you need to know which player made the move?
Would you need to know what the player's move was?

Why are the Back and Forward arrows gone?

In Firefox 4 the most irritating change is getting rid of the buttons for Back and Forward. Others have complained, correctly I think, about the Refresh/Reload icon gone, the Stop button gone. But I really MISS the arrows. I also didn't like having text and icons together in the menu bar, but I figured out how to change them.
So... How do I get rid of the words Back and Forward and get the arrow buttons back?

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.
If the above steps didn't help then see:

If I open a second window in Safari it doesn't have the home page icon nor does it have the back and forward arrows. Why not?

How do I get a second Safari page with the home page icon and back and to arrowsl?

Move to the desktop or rename the com.apple.Safari.plist
Found in your User/Library/Preferences/
Finder>Go>Go to Folder (copy and paste:)
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Quit and restart the browser. The default plist will be rebuilt. See if this sorts your problem.
If no you can always put back the original plist, no harm done.

I want to set up firefox in kiosk mode, but I need to have the Back (and Forward) button and the Home button available.

The computer will be used only for online catalog access in my library. I need to remove the location toolbar, but keep the back buttons and home button. If I use Kiosk mode, I don't have the back buttons. I can set it up so that I have the buttons but not the URL, but a user could right click on the menu bar and re-enable the location bar. I need to prevent them from doing that.
Thanks!

Users can always bring up a location bar with the Ctrl+L shortcut if that bar is hidden.
A possibility is to hide toolbar items and (context) menu items with code in userChrome.css below the default @namespace line.

Drag and Drop Function Stopped Working

So I may just be dense, but my drag and drop function isn't working anymore. I've been searching the internet for anything that might help, and I've tried all the solutions that I've seen. No luck though. This is a really annoying problem and if anyone has suggestions I'd love to have some help. Thanks!!

So those ideas on the other thread didn't help. I think if I reinstalled leopard it may fix it, but the problem there is I don't have the disk at school with me. Having no foresight ruins things.
Would that be the only option or does anyone have other thoughts?

Why have the forward, back and refresh buttons stopped working in Firefox 4 Beta 10?

Upgraded from FF4 Beta 2 to Beta 10. They were working fine in Beta 2.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Bookmarks_history_and_toolbar_buttons_not_working_-_Firefox
The shortcut key sequence to open Panorama (View > Tab Groups) has changed to Shift + Ctrl + E.

When I get into my email, the back and forward no longer works.

When checking my mail, I will click on a site, then click again to view something within; the arrows (back/forward) fade and no longer function, thus not able to use.

Probably the "Babylon" toolbar if Thunderbird is involved. Firefox does not do email. though.

Browser back and forward buttons dont work, no bookmarks, and can't sign into websites.

When I open firefox in Linux, it looks strange. The back, forward, and all those buttons are grey so I cannot click them. None of my bookmarks appear. And when I go to a website like Gmail to sign in, I can fill in my information, but I cannot click the sign in button. I tried erasing the .parentlock file and restarting everything. I also tried clearing the cache. I also moved the sessionstore.js file out of the folder. It seems like it was last modified the last time Firefox ran normally.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Not sure

Hello Ben.
First of all, and although possibly not related to your problem, I will remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment as been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, it has known bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum stability, performance, security and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com www.getfirefox.com].
As for your issue, you may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

Why have my Mail rules decided to stop working?

Emails are all going straight to my main inbox all of a sudden, rather than being filed away in their appropriate folders (per the Rules I've set up).
I've not changed any settings and can't see why the rules suddenly have decided to go on holiday!
Mail is being synched to my email host easymediasolutions/horde webmail which has never posed any problems...
Any suggestions?
p.s. When someone fills in my enquiry form on my website, for some reason it IS directed via the Rules for that email address, but this is the only way it happens.
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Hard to know what could be the problem without knowing how those rules are defined, but what type of mail account is this (POP, IMAP)? If IMAP, what are your Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Keep copies of messages for offline viewing settings?
Do you have any Mail plug-ins? In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/Mail/Bundles/
~/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.
