Maybe it's me who's missing something. With ML and Safari 6, the backspace key has stopped moving me back and the shift backspace key has stopped moving me forward. I have tried both with and without quick nav on.

Contributed by: philwo It > seems like Apple disabled the "Press Backspace to go back a page" feature in Safari 6 due to users having complained about losing text entered in text fields when they accidentally pressed the backspace key. If you liked this feature, you can enable it again using this command: > defaults write com.apple.Safari NSUserKeyEquivalents -dict-add Back "\U232b" > If you ever want to disable it, there are two possibilities.

You need to first create a keyboard shortcut for Safari, for the "Back" command, in the preferences. Then, if you apply the first command above, you'll be able to delete it. If you don't have a shortcut set up for the Back command before running the first command above, it won't display in the Keyboard Shortcut preferences, and you won't be able to delete it from the preference pane. It seems like using the defaults command to set up a shortcut only displays that shortcut in the preference pane if you already have a shortcut created. > . > .
