TS3092 my wireless apple mouse works to move the arrow but will not scroll. how can I fix this?

my wireless mouse moves the pointer but does not scroll, how can I fix this?

Check the setting in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > mouse options.. button > check scrolling.
If you have an older mouse with the trackball, it might just need cleaning.  Turn the mouse over and rub the trackball vigorously on paper or microfiber cloth.

  • My external Apple USB Keyboard letters doesn't work, but the numbers do. Why and how can I fix this issue?

    My external Apple USB Keyboard letters doesn't work, but the numbers do. Why and how can I fix this issue? Also, When I open the Keyboard Viewer, the letters will highlight only if I hold the modifier key(s) "Control" or "Control and Option". I really need help with this. I don't have any other computer to try it on, so I will have to test it on a friends computer sometime. But perhaps solutions that I can try right now? Thanks.

  • After Yosemite Track pad moves the cursor but will NOT allow Click

    Track pad moves the cursor but will NOT allow click after a period of usage. After Forced reboot track pad works fine for a few hours. This started within hours of installing Yosemite. Help, I am afraid I will lose a document during reboot. So far I have been lucky and have not lost data.
    MacBook Pro (17-inch, Early 2011)  SSD

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    If 10.7.0 or later...
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    Any change on reboot?

  • I have installed the font Broadway on my computer and it works in Microsoft Word but does not appear in the font list in InDesign.  How can I fix this problem?

    Start by rebooting the computer. If that doesn't work, search for adobefnt*.lst and delete all instances where * becomes a 2-digit number.

  • The links toolbar is not working. I can drag addresses to it, but when I click on them, the sites don't open. How can I fix this?

    There is a toolbar feature in the lower right corner of the taskbar. I tried to set up the Links toolbar. I can drag addresses to this, but when I click them, nothing happens. What should happen is the site/page whose address I clicked should open.
    How can I fix this? Is it a problem with the Firefox I'm currently using?

    I checked out the links you provided. One is dead, one is for Windows 7, which doesn't apply to my problem because I'm using Windows 8, and I've been checking out the third.
    I'm a novice and may not have the right vocabulary to explain myself. The Links toolbar is accessed from the bottom right side of the taskbar at the bottom of the screen. Apparently Firefox is necessary to use this, as everyone I've talked to swears it's not visible for IE.
    What I'm referring to is Right-click "show hidden icons." Scroll up to Toolbars. Scroll over to Links. Check it to enable it. Then what should happen is I should be able to drag the address/url from the top of the page to this menu and click on it when I want to go back to that particular page. That is what is not working. Nothing happens when I click the addresses in the Links menu.

  • My trackpad is not working it moves the arrow but I cannot click on anything or drag anything

    My trackpad is not working on my MacBook pro. I can get the arrow to move but I cannot open files or drag files when I click.

    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to bare metal from any of them.) Don’t erase the Lion recovery partition, if present.

  • HT4437 Airplay on apple tv works from my ipod touch but will not work from my macbook pro.  Any thoughts on wht the problem may be?

    any idea on what the problem is?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Does your MacBook meet the specifications for AirPlay
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router.
    Restart your mobile device.

  • My daughters bluetooth keyboard won't work with voiceover since upgrading to iOS 8.1 - how can i fix this?

    My daughter has a Greatshield bluetooth keyboard which she has been using successfully in school with her iPad mini. she is blind and uses voiceover to navigate and to have what she has typed read back to her.
    Since updating to iOS 8.1 the keyboard no longer works when voiceover is on but does when voiceover if off. My daughter is not able to use it without voiceover.
    Any suggestions?

              Was in the Apple Stor this morning in Indianapolis and picked up a Bluetooth keyboard to use with my iPad mini 2. Sadly neither I nor staff could get it to work with voiceover working. The staff, both sales and tech, appeared as shocked as I was. I was surprised that over 6 months Apple had not fixed this issue. Now I am wasting my time trying to back up reports of this problem on Apple's website. I know Apple over the last 10 years had given a lot of us so many advancements, but maybe that's changing? All I know is that as a busy professional, Apple has cost me about 4 hours of lost productivity today. I wish I could charge them for it!       

  • My Itouch 4 back camera doesn't work, it freezes when i try to open it, how can i fix this and how much will this cost?

    If in settings, music, volume limit is off then restart your phone first. Hold the home and off button down until the apple symbol comes up.

  • I'm getting the error msg "apple application support was not found.  Apple application support is required to run itunes. error 2.  How can i fix this?

    Hi,  I was running itunes software just fine. I got some malware and unintalled everything that was from apple.  Now, I reinstalled itunes but can't run it because I get the msg "Apple application support was not found. Apple application support is required to run itunes. Error msg 2.
    What can I do to fix this?
    Thank you.

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • I have updated my apple ID but now my Icloud ID will not update, how do I fix this?

    Last night I updated my apple ID because I was tired of bouncing between emails, so I updated my apple id and I see that my Icloud Id has not been updated and I am not sure how to do this. Any help will be appreciated.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • My matshita dvd-r uj-898 stopped working after i used an external burner...how can I fix this?

    Macbook Pro  10.6.7, 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7, 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    I have a Matshita DVD-R UJ-898 which worked fine (from the Finder and from Toast 8) until I used an external Matshita drive (can't remember the model). 
    Now the finder gives this error:
    “Untitled DVD” can’t be burned because the disc is read-only and can’t be modified (error code 0x80020042).
    and Toast gives this one:
    The drive reported an error:
    Sense Key = ABORTED COMMAND
    Sense Code = 0x4E
    OVERLAPPED COMMANDS ATTEMPTED
    Suggestions?
    Thanks so much,

    Have you tried using a different brand of optical disk? (You don't say whether you are doing CDs or DVDs.) Some are better than others.

  • My iPhone 4 home button no longer works, the phone works perfectly otherwise but the home button does nothing. How can I fix this?

    Help me!

    You can add a virtual button that you can use - heres how:
    First make sure you are on version 5
    the go to SETTING>GENERAL>ACCESSIBILITY>ASSISTIVE TOUCH
    You will then have a button on the bottom right hand corner screen that is always there (you can move it around if its in the way). Pressing it will allow you to go to the home screen.
    Good luck - it happened to me too and this was a life saver  - I booked it into be seen at the Genius bar but by the time my appointment came through  (it took a few days) the home button started working again - literally just as I waas in the shop!  Think it might have just got a bit sticky as my 2 year old was playing with it.
