Hello,
I don't know exactly where I should put the subject, so I'm placing it under Material.
My problem:
The back button doesn't work on my browser: Firefox.
I think it should work on Internet Explorer, but I don't want to use it.
Does anyone have a solution?
Any plugin to install?
Thanks in advance.

Following some research on this issue, several solutions are possible:
Firstly, the problem does not come from Firefox, which is somewhat reassuring!
The issue arises from Logitech's default interpretation of these buttons, which I find very practical.
In the Logitech mouse configuration software:
The solution is to set the action for the back/forward buttons as "Generic Button," apply it, and the buttons work on Internet Explorer and Firefox (no time to test on others...)
The second solution that can be adapted to all mice facing this problem is to assign keyboard shortcuts to these buttons. The keyboard shortcut using ALT + arrow right or arrow left allows for back or forward navigation. You just need to reassign the buttons using these shortcuts.
Hoping to help some users in ergonomic distress...

Hello,
I have exactly the same problem with a Logitech MX 1000! The back button works very well in IE7, but not in Firefox!
If anyone has heard of a patch for Firefox... or an option... or anything else, please let me know, I don't think I'm alone in this case!
I will continue my research...
Thanks in advance
