OOOOH! Thank you for clearing this up for me. I have been wondering for quite some time why they don't go back in time to fix other things, but now you've answered my question. 
JKR says that in the world of Harry Potter once you're dead you are really dead, so I'm assuming that they can not step back in time after a death to stop that death from occurring? 

The buckbeak thing causes confusion though, because of the timing. So did Buckbeak die, or not? They leave Hagrid's hut and later Dumbledore tells them they can save 2 innocent lives that day. Well, by that time Buckbeak had been dead for hours, so by going back in time did they bring Buckbeak back? Some will argue that Buckbeak never died because Harry and Hermione saved him, but how is that possible when they did not know to do this until later in the day?
