When I open a new tab, the back button does not work on the second page, I discover - never the second page, regardless of the site.

When I opened a new tab - or when I first open a browser - as soon as I go to a second page, I can't go back to the first. Thus, for example, I opened a new tab. I go to a news site. I click on a title. I can not then go back to the first page of the new site. If I go back to the first page manually (by typing the url, or by opening a bookmark) and then click on the same heading, I'll be able to go back.

The inability to return only ever happens on the second page opens in a new tab or window. At any time, I can go back as normal - but the first page I was on that tab / in this window is erased from history.

This isn't something that's happened only with FF4, either. I first noticed a couple of weeks, but I upgraded shortly after, assuming it was a bug that would set the new browser. But it's always like that. He still refuses to back the second page of the first.

This problem may be caused by an extension (McAfee SiteAdvisor) that is not working properly.

    When I opened a new tab, the cursor is automatically in the field of navigation, because I reinstalled Firefox yesterday. Is there a solution?

    I solved.

    I installed mutorrent, which in turn installed 'Safe Protect' of 'Intermediary' that messed up my Internet browser settings.

    I uninstalled it and everything turned back to normal, when I opened a new tab, the cursor is automatically in the address bar (ie. it is highlighted).

    Thanks for your time.

  • Firefox automatically updated itself, would not add new bookmarks, then deleted all mine, will not always add new, now the back button does not work. I'm Livid.

    I think I'm on Firefox 13.0. He put itself as part of the update of my computer up to date (at least I guess that's what happened, because it has changed). I noticed yesterday that he would not favorite Web sites, but I thought it was just the website or bookmarks have been full-time or something. Today, I tried to remove a few bookmarks to make more, but they would not remove. I tried to register a new site, and it wouldn't work. I tried to close/exit firefox and re-opening of the program. While the program was closed, I installed the next set of updates on my computer. When I have opened firefox, all my favorites, and the tab menu (or what you call personal small bar on the actual tabs) were gone. I can't always favorite of new sites, so I can't even re-do all my favorites (and I got a lot, all of them arranged so it's a big loss and incredibly annoying). Then I realized that the back button does not work. And the cursor remains on the typing that I symbol, it does not change the arrow, when I click on a link.

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

    You can also try to repair the database of places with this extension:

  • Why not Firefox 4.0 back button does not work since the homepage or google search?

    I've just upgraded to firefox 4.0 tonight, and the back button is not working properly of my homepage or certain types of google searches.

    I can reproduce this problem every time by following these steps:

    (1) open a new tab, and I get a blank page.
    (2) select the Home button. I find myself at http://www.google.com/ig
    (3) go to the address bar type in a new URI, and press return

    Now, I leave my home page and go to the new page, but I can't go back to my home page.

    Similar behavior happens if I do a search on google for the address of quick search in the upper right.

    (1) start a new tab.
    (2) enter a search term and press enter
    3) click on one of the links to research and you transition to the new page, but the back button does not work.

    It works fine if I do something like:
    (1) open a new tab.
    (2) enter google.com in the address bar and press to enter.
    (3) do a GOOGLES search arae.
    4) click a search result link.

    This works very well for me.

    In my case, I turn off the Add McAfee SiteAdvisor 3.3.1 and the problem goes away.

  • "Back" button does not work and lost bookmarks

    I followed the instructions that Firefox has been extremely slow. He said my favorites would be saved and everything should work as usual. However, I lost all my precious Favorites, and now the back button does not work. She is pale grey all the time, and itls drives me crazy, that I can't go back to the search page. I have to type everything in full again.
    If I can't change it, I'll have to switch to another web browser, after being with Firefox for more years than I care to remember.
    I liked using Firefox and have recommended it to all my family and friends.
    I'm very angry on my favorites, because I used these regularly and had a few coordinates links and important model for my sewing and knitting, as well as time-saving links. Now, I'm completely lost without them.
    If this isn't the page said it would be saved, then I would not have changed anything.
    It's very frustrating and annoying, after spending months, where I wanted and now he lost get it all because of the wrong information. I am very anxious.

    You can check for problems with the database places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.

    You can see if you can restore bookmarks to a JSON or a compressed backup of JSONLZ4 in the bookmarkbackups folder in the "Old data Firefox" folder on the desktop.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand you have questions only by using the back button in the Firefox browser.

    But I would like more information on this topic in order to help you.

    (1) the back button worked before with Firefox?

    (2) don't you make changes before this problem?

    According to your description, there is no problem with the material since it works with Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. Previous key does not only work with Firefox. Therefore, I would advice you to check with Firefox and see if that helps, because they have more expertise on products here to help you better.
