right click menu missing back and forward icons
Okay, when I right click on any page I no longer see the back or forward icons to click on, all I have is the refresh and bookmark star. How do I get them back or did they get removed in an update I got yesterday when I restarted Firefox (ver. 32.0.3) ?
I rely on these icons heavily, is there an issue here or is something wrong with my Firefox?

There needs to be something you can go back to or forward to in the first place.
Give me a break here I am not stupid!
I right click on a page that is the second or third page into a product search of amazon.com and the icons are not there for me to go back to the previous page.
Stop with the dumb ass answers
Are you using the default theme?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

Do history items appear in the history sidebar?
Do the "Alt + cursor Back" and "Alt + cursor Forward" keyboard shortcuts work?
You can also check the browser.sessionhistory.max_entries pref on the about:config page.
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

floatingeagle, if you want help please watch your language towards others. If christ1 had not mentioned it somebody else may have since your OP did not state you do not get the back/forward arrows even after going to other sites/pages in same tab.
