Go back to contact view when editing

When I'm working with contacts, sometimes I need to make changes to several contacts with the same last name. In the old contacts system there was a "back" option that would allow me to return to the previous search results...it would be nice to still be able to do that instead of having to search again once I've looked at a specific contact's screen.

When editing a group of contacts that have been tagged, after saving a change, I guess we need to click Contacts to get back to the main list, but then it always selects Active Contacts (which takes 10 seconds to display) and then select the tag list that I was editing. Painfully slow.

On the Bounced page the back key does not work. Please bring this back!

From my email reports I look at bounces and see if I need to delete contacts or update email addresses. From there when I click thru to the contact info page where I can make adjustments I can't back arrow to the previous page back to my list of bounced emails. That would save a lot of time rather than clicking back on the email then on bounced number, then finally back to my list of bounced emails. Thank you.

this is not yet user friendly. When I hit save there is no obvious way to go back to the list I was working in to check other contacts etc. it goes back to the complete directory. The same is true when it warns you that you may have a duplicate.

Once you click on a contact within the bounce list there is no way to go back that I can see to the list you were on without having to back to the email, select it, and then select bounces again. I can use my back button as well but it seems that you should have a link to take me back.

I have to go back to the general contact list, and choose the list I'm editing again.
It would be helpful if, after looking at the details of a bounced email address so that I can see how many times mail to this person has bounced, if I could hit the "back" key and return to the Bounced Email list to delete this person, if appropriate. Hitting the "back" key does not do anything!

I am checking a list of contacts who have opened a specific email, but when I look at on one on page 2 of my list then press back, I am taken to the top of page 1. I then have to scroll down to the 'next' arrow and press for page 2. Back should take you back to exactly where you were.

When I click on the name of someone that opened my December Newsletter to see how many times they opened it, I cannot get back to my open list by using the back arrow. Seems I must go back to the home section and click on my opens again. Maybe you can make this a bit easier? Thanks! Karen

It's a shame that when you edit a contact you have to go back to the very first page of contacts and arrow forward to get to where you left off in reviewing the contact list for errors. Such a tedious process. If only there was a simpler way to make some edits w/o having to export your list and re-importing. Or at the very least, put an arrow button at the top of the contacts page too so you don't have to also scroll to the bottom to advance to the next page.
