I noticed not long after I installed Firefox that I can't backspace on Youtube to the previous page I was on after watching a video unless i right click and hit the previous button. i looked through everything and nothing seems to help the problem. Will I have to uninstall and reinstall Firefox to solve this dilemma?? i know its just me because my mother also have Firefox and I can go onto Youtube on her computer and watch videos and backspace with no problem.

This can happen if a plugin like Flash has focus.
In that case you can only use the keyboard if you first click with the mouse outside that Flash object.
