Your first mentioned use of the "store" button in Ultra Recall is correct, to toggle whether the current Info Item stores or only links to the actual document (or web page). This button will never create a new Info Item.

The Document (or web page) that will be "stored" is based on the current Url attribute value (in the Item Attributes Pane), which is always associated with the currently selected Info Item (in a Selection Pane, such as the Data Explorer Pane).

When you use the Google Search Info Item to do a search, the Item Details Pane is now functioning as a regular browser and is displaying the contents of the url in the Web Toolbar, not the selected Info Item (note that the other panes still reflect the currently selected Info Item).

Several options exist to add the displayed page as a new Info Item in Ultra Recall (when using Ultra Recall as a browser):
1) Drag & Drop or copy & paste the url from the Web Toolbar to the appropriate location in the Data Explorer Pane, Search Pane or Child Items Pane.
Note that some web sites do not return a different url when you navigate to different pages, in this case Ultra Recall will not save the current page using this technique. This will also occur when dragging the same url from an external browser.

2) Copy all or some of the actual web page contents and paste that into Ultra Recall. This will work regardless of what the url is and also works if the page is secure or password protected.
The entire page can be copied with Edit | Select All then Edit | Copy (or Ctrl+A then Ctrl+C).
Note: You can also drag and drop some all of the content of a web page the same way.

3) If you installed the Explorer Menu content menu shortcuts, then you could also right-click the page being displayed (in the Item Details Pane), then click either Send to Ultra Recall (copy) or Send to Ultra Recall (link).
[i]Note: A new Info Item will be created either as child of the currently bolded Info Item or the Imported Items Info Item, depending on the current option setting @ Tools | Options | Import.

What is the very long url that is causing the "url not found" message?

We have never seen (or had any reports of) the Forward/Back buttons not functioning. Can you provide more detail about this?
