Can't Use Scroll Wheel to Turn Pages

How do I get iBooks to use the scroll wheel on my Logitech mouse to turn pages in iBooks. Seems like it should be an option but I can't seem to find an answer anywhere. It's getting frustrating.

So, after 24 hours there are still no responses so I'm going to say that the answer to my question is: "No, you cannot use the scroll wheel on your mouse to navigate in iBooks for the Mac." I'm picking this as the best answer and will be sending feedback to Apple about this issue. At least now when someone does a web search on this, they'll have an answer.
Go to this link and send feedback to Apple if you'd like this odd behavior changed:

  • "Zoom using scroll wheel while holding" is broken

    Hello,
    Since updating to Mac OS X 10.7 Lion this morning, the "Zoom using scroll wheel while holding" feature is broken.
    In the mouse control panel the checkbox for "Zoom using scroll wheel while holding" is definitely checked. The default Control ^ key is selected. I verified I'm hitting the correct key on the keyboard using the keyboard viewer.
    I've tried using this with 2 finger scrolling on my trackpack as well. I've also tried turning off most of the trackpack geustures.
    I tried searching these forums prior to posting and found replies telling people with various different situations to turn this feature off. I want it on. I use it constantly.
    I have a MacBook Pro Aluminum 13-Inch Mid 2010
    Processor  2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory  4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256 MB
    Software  Mac OS X Lion 10.7 (11A511)
    Any advise would be appreciated!
    Thanks.

    Hello. Original poster here. I can confirm a few things after observing for a few days and trying stuff.
    1) The Universal access fixes did nothing. I set & reset those settings til I was blue in the face.
    2) I tried a "Repair Permissions" with the Disk Utility. No luck.
    3) It works intermitently. After sleeping sometimes it works. After plugging into my external monitor sometimes it works on the external monitor but then if I unplug it won't work again. After a reboot somtimes it works, then after sleeping stops working. Kinda strange. When it works it works from both my external USB mouse and the trackpad, so I don't think it's the hardware.
    I don't have Time Machine configured - been using Carbonite, but they're not compatible with Lion so might have to get Time Machine running anyway - but it's not a fix per se, since this oughta work all the time.

  • Can I use preview to export multiple page PDF as jpegs?

    Using Preview, I export multiple page PDF as jpeg and results are the first page only as jpeg. Can I use preview to export multiple page PDF as jpeg for every page?

    Automator is great for this if you need to export many pages to JPG, or just have to do this often.
    Two other quick and dirty way sto get it done:
    (1) Enable thumbnail view, click on the ONE PAGE you want to convert to jpg, then choose "export." If you choose more than one page, only the first will get exported to jpg.
    (2) Create a copy of the file, delete all the pages except the one you want to export to JPG, and export that page. You may be able to "undo" the delete, get all your pages back again, and re-delete all but the one you want to export, etc. I would not recommend doing this on the original version of the file because of Preview's autosave so-called "feature."

  • Can I use voice recognition software with Pages?

    Can I use voice recognition software with Pages?

    Apple provides Dictation services as part of OS X that must be enabled in System Preferences, and then activated while in the Pages document. Then you can speak and it will type what it thinks you said. It is learning software, and over time, better recognizes your voice pattern.
    Then there is Dragon Naturally Speaking for nearly $200 USD.

  • How can I use the scroll wheel to move page by page

    I have Adobe Acrobat 8 and I would like to be able to use the scroll wheel in my mouse to move page by page instead of the page icons in the tool bar.  I recently had my computer updated from Windows XP to Windows 7 and I used to be able to do that in XP.  I do a lot of moving around in documents and it's easier to move page by page if I don't have to be moving the cursor all the time.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as I don't want to everything else (like Office 2007 Word) to move whole pages with the scroll wheel, just Acrobat.

    Make sure that View - Page Display - Single Page View is selected in
    Acrobat.

  • I can't use scrolling in tabs when a PDF tab is open in Firefox 4.

    If I have a PDF open in a tab, I can't use my mouse scroll in other tabs until I close the PDF tab. I can scroll fine in the PDF tab. Did not have this problem in Firefox 3.5 (skipped 3.6).

    I have this exact same problem! Rather frustrating when you're switching between a PDF and a regular page. :(
    I'm on a laptop and using the two-finger drag to scroll. If a PDF tab is open, but my selected tab is not the PDF, when I scroll, it scrolls the PDF and not the page you're on!
    I was on 3.6 and this problem was NOT there; it only showed up on FF 4.0

  • Use scroll wheel to zoom on Mac OSX?

    Hi,
    I have recently switched to a Macbook from Windows. On Windows (if I remember correctly) you could zoom in and out by pressing "Control" and the using the scroll wheel on the mouse. It seems this is not working on the Macbook. Is there a way to enable this? I know you can use the pinch gestures on the track pad but I much prefer the scroll wheel.

    If you mean by clicking on the arrow, bringing up the actual slider.  No, that doesn't work.  I've tried clicking various parts of the slider itself to no avail.
    Have tried on numerous different adjustments, labels, filters in case that it only works on some.

  • Using scroll wheel to zoom timeline

    I would like to do zooming with the scroll wheel, rather than taking my hand off the mouse to do CMD+/- or having to move my pointer away from the timeline and use the scroll widget at the bottom of the screen.  Can someone tell me if there's any way to assign zooming to the scroll wheel?

    I don't know about a scroll wheel, and maybe this is not what you expected to hear, but you should try a trackpad. Zooming in and out, moving the timeline left or right, and more, are so easily done with gestures that are common to most mac applications. The trackpad in mac laptops, and the Magic Trackpad, are to me far more effective and ergonomic than any mouse.
    Edit: Oh - and you already have it! (your profile says Macbook Air...)

  • OS10.5.8's lost ability to scroll horizontally using scroll wheel & shift key.

    I wonder whether somebody can tell me how I can reinstate my OS10.5.8's ability to scroll horizontally using my mouse's scroll wheel and the shift key.

    Dear Japamac,
    Thanks for this:
    > Repair the hard drive using Disk Utility?
    My Disk Utility says there are no errors.
    > Reset the PRAM?
    In a few days' time I'm due to get help at the Genius Bar of an Apple shop. I'll ask the technician about PRAM.
    > The function wasn't removed in 10.5.8.......
    I gather that your OS10.5.8 with PowerPC allows you to scroll horizontally with your mouse's scroll wheel and the shift key.
    As I implied in my words "reinstate my OS10.5.8's ability", I was able to use the horizontal-scroll-with-wheel-and-shift trick for a long time after I installed OS10.5.8 (that was in the middle of 2009).
    I'll see whether the Genius Bar can reinstate the trick for me.
    Thanks for your ideas, Japamac.

  • I have a domain name with go-daddy can i use iweb to create my page?

    I'm trying to help a friend set-up a website.  he has a domain name with go-daddy but hasnt set-up the web page at all can i use iweb and upload it to the domain name he already has bought?  I'm a first time iweb user please help!!

    Your friend needs both a domain name and a web hosting account in order to get his website online.  If he has both with GoDaddy.com then yes, you can create and upload the site. 
    If he has purchased only a domain name he'll need to get a hosting service.

  • Increments Of 100 With Grad Filter and Adj Brush Using Scroll Wheel and Arrows

    For Vista 64 bit and Nvidia GeForce 8500 GT driver version 7.15.11.6960,
    both the graduated filter and adjustment brush change at increments of 100 or 200 using the scroll wheel or arrows for everything except exposure. Brightness goes from -200 to 0 to 200 while the others go from -100 to 0 to 100.

    Seen that as well. Keyboard focus has been an issue for me on Vista x64 OS for quite sometime.Sometimes the arrows don't move in even increments on all the sliders for various adjustments.
    In this case the arrow keys move either side of 0 to the maximum exent of the range. In this case brightness has a range of + or - 200 while the other sliders move = or - 100

  • XFCE's mixer plugin stops at 90% when using scroll wheel over icon

    Yeah, title says it.  By putting the cursor over the icon and using the scroll wheel, the volume goes up to 90%.  But when I open the mixer and drag the master slider, it goes to 100%.  How do I fix this?

    Had the same Problem, was really annoying me. Probably a baaad baad bad workaround:
    in src/xfce4-mixer-4.6.0/panel-plugin (ABS / xfce4-mixer)
    changed xfce-volume-button.c, line 204 & 205:
    /* Create adjustment for the button (from 0.0 to 1.0 in 5% steps) */
    button->adjustment = gtk_adjustment_new (0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.05, 0.05, 0.1);
    to
    /* Create adjustment for the button (from 0.0 to 1.0 in 5% steps) */
    button->adjustment = gtk_adjustment_new (0.0, 0.0, 1.1, 0.05, 0.05, 0.1);
    rebuild, done.
    I've been searching for a while for the real problem, but I'm no programmer. Looks as if somewhere someone perhaps startet counting at 1% instead of 0% or something, but I've got no idea where.
    (useless EDIT: Seems as if someone already fixed it in the newest version available in ABS since I changed it on my machine. Wait, trying...
    EDIT: Nope, still only works up to 90% in current ABS version I think - might have just forgotten to re-extract the source of the panel after update. Redoing the "bad fix" got it to 100% again though.)

  • Scrolling using Scroll Wheel in Adobe Illustrator

    In Adobe Illustrator CS5 I was able to scroll left and right in a document by holding Command and moving the scroll wheel on my mouse. In CS6 I find that holding Command does not toggle the scrolling direction as it had previously done. Holding shift will allow me to scroll horizontally, but moves a whole page at a time instead of giving me the fine-grained control I had before. Is this a bug on my system or is there a reason this behavior was changed? This YouTube tutorial leads me to believe scrolling in CS6 is supposed to work just like it did in CS5.

    Thank you in advance for any help.

    Er, your point being?
    Seems you have a lot to learn.

  • Safari crash in Acrord32 when use scroll wheel while PDF loading

    Whenever I download a PDF (in browser), Safari 4 crashes in Acrord32 if I use the scroll wheel on my mouse while the PDF is still loading.
    This seems to often happen to me as I impatiently want to start browsing the PDF without waiting for it to finish loading completely.
    This happens for me on two completely different systems - one XP, one Vista.
    Using latest version of Acrobat Reader (9), and in both 4 and 4.02 of Safari for Windows.
    Mostly I get a "this program needs to close" type message from Windows, and clicking on details show Acrord32 as the problem. However sometimes Safari just freezes using 95% CPU, or occasionally the program just disappears.
    Anyone else seen this behaviour?

    Yes, I see it too with the same exact combination of Safari and Adobe Reader.
