I get the behaviour described on my intel iMac running OS X 10.5.6 and Mathematica 7.0.1. I don't have other options to test. I don't think that PowerPC/Intel makes any difference here. The Show Toolbar menu item adds the toolbar. To customize it, you have to do the non-standard (for Mac OS) right click on the grey background to the toolbar to get the customize toolbar item in the contextual menu. If you don't have a mouse or trackpad with a right menu, you can use control-click to bring up the contextual menu. Oddly, I don't have the back button as the default, but with the customize panel, the default toolbar, which you can drag up to replace what is there, *does* have the back button. george On Mar 14, 2009, at 7:14 PM, Thomas Dowling wrote: > Hello, > > Thanks for your advise. > > > I am running version 7.0.0 on a Mac G4 (non-Intel) with OSX ver > 10.5.6. > > However, I do NOT have the 'go back' button on the toolbar > (showing), nor > does 'Customize' give me this option.
