Looking for a keyboard shortcut for Back. Neither Cntr + left Arrow or Cntr + backspace work.
The Firefox help on this subject titled "N900 Keyboard Shortcuts" indicate that the either Cntr + Left Arrow or Cntr + Backspace equates to hitting the "Back" button ... Neither work. Perhaps this advice is a remnant from an earlier version that no longer works ... This is an important shortcut for those of us with repetitive motion strain ... Or for using a touch pad ...
Thanks

Those key combinations do nothing on my system.
Try Alt+⇦ or Ctrl+[ or Backspace or Shift+Scroll down shortcuts for going back one page. See: http://www.7is7.com/software/firefox/shortcuts.html (scroll down to "Web Navigation" section, then see "Back one page").
Your version of Java is out of date and has known security issues. You should update the plugin.
- Java Plug-in 1.6.0_11 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)
- Check your plugin versions: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
- Note: plugin check page does not have information on all plugin versions

Thanks for the keyboard shortcuts ... New Problem. I attempted the Java update as warned, but it won't work. I get an error message during installation saying "Bin\awt.dll not found. However a file of same name found. No update done since contents do not match. Then I get another box saying Error 1722, Problem with installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. I tried uninstalling previous updates from Add ons, but I get the same result.
Thanks!
Uninstall the currently installed Java versions via the Windows Control Panel > Add and Remove Programs". (Sounds like you were trying to uninstall using Firefox Tools > Add-ons; that is not the place to do the un-install.)
Install the latest Java version. Download installer from:
- http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
- click on JRE under "Java" download or click "Download JRE" button
- select Platform (OS) - in your case choose "Windows"
- check box "I agree to the....License Agreement"
- click file under "Windows Offline Installation" (currently: jre-6u22-windows-i586.exe)
- save to hard drive (Desktop so you can find it)
- close browser and run installer you saved to Desktop
- After install, check your plugin versions: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/

Thank you so much ... I didn't want to just charge right in and try installing and then end up not being able to reinstall JAVA ... Worked great ...
Y'all are jems to those of us that are technically challenged ... I am so appreciative ...
CHEERS!
You are welcome.
You can use the Backspace key to go back (above the big Enter key).
or
Hold down the Alt key and then press left arrow while still holding down Alt.
