Blue selection when scrolling

when i"m using the trackpad on my air, especially in safari, it will select the text (in blue) and sometimes click without me clicking...Is this a software issue?

Ah! The Blue Devils.
Sounds like you are highlighting a body of text to clip or copy, if its happening in Safari.
Its worse scrolling on a phone-sized device, if that makes you feel better.
You may have clicked while trying to shake ‘em off & it was slow to register, & thus the click feels like its happening on its own.
You might experiment with your settings.
Someone will come along with a better answer shortly.

Blue background when scrolling, nvidia GTX670, 301.64 drivers

After upgrading video card to Nvidia GTX670 with 301.64 drivers, all firefox windows show a blue background when scrolling.
[http://www.flickr.com/photos/78895346@N07/7227064448/ screenshot]
The problem goes away if hardware acceleration disabled, but stays when all plugins disabled or smooth scrolling enabled/disabled.
Screen is 1920x1200, Windows 7 64-bit, i7-920 CPU.

As you've confirmed yet again, the hardware acceleration feature doesn't work equally well with all graphics drivers.
I don't know whether there is a place to report specific problem combinations; you could try the Help > Submit Feedback feature, and try to copy/paste from the Graphics section from the bottom of Help > Troubleshooting Information

How can I change scrollbar colors? It's hard to see the menu selection/color when scrolling through bookmarks, for example.

How can I make clearer the menu highlight selections, for example when scrolling through my bookmarks. The light blue color is hard to see in Windows 7. How do I change that color?? Running FF 3.6.6
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

" Is there anyway I can define individually as to what color should be related to each text in ring menu?"
Well not with a ring and not programatically.
The best I can suggest is a picture ring, see below.

Blue screen when unplugging phone charger from USB

My HTC Droid incredible 2 causes windows 7 crash (blue screen) when I unplug charger cable from desktop USB port. It does not matter whether I have unplugged the phone from charger BEFORE unplugging the charger cable from the USB port. Has anyone else had this issue & resolved it?

On your lower right hand corner is an icon that is used to disconnect your usb devices safely.
simply click on it then select the device you want to remove, the computer will say "Device is safe to remove" then unplug the usb cable from the computer.
Additionally try another usb port on your computer and see if that corrects the problem.
Another thing to do is before you hook the phone up again do a system shut down and restart. Then plug in the phone. This may load your usb drivers correctly or the system will repair them.
Good Luck

Windows Blue Screen - when trying to re-sync an IPOD after doing 5 R's

My windows based Itunes failed to recognize my ipod, so I trouble shooted and finally ended up doing the 5 R's.
This resulted in a "Blank Ipod" (after restore).
I was able to successfully get Itunes to recognize my ipod after the restore. That is when a "major problem" occurred.
When my 37 gigs of MP3s on my PC attempt to automatically update onto my "blank ipod", my system crashes giving me the dreaded windows BLUE SCREEN! The error messgae indicates that a physical memory dump occurred and the system shuts down.
I figure it has something to do with all of those gigs trying to update onto the ipod. SO, I start to manually transfer (drag and drop) about 100 mp3s at a time onto the ipod within itunes. It still crashed after the 3rd batch of 100 mp3s.
Has anyone experienced this? Does it have anything to do with Mirosoft's newest IE vunerability? I use Firefox usually, but sometimes HAVE to use IE. What can I do?
This really *****.
thanks for your help.

hi zeppy!
hmmmmmm. a 0x7E? that's not the most commonly reported BSOD code here.
but the MS KB seemed to have at least one clue for us.
(1) sometimes people can get blue screens when they plug in an ipod if their FireWire, USB, or dock has gone bad. i see from that STOP message resource that the 0x7E can be associated with dodgy USB.
by way of tracking down that possibility, do you still get the BSOD if you connect to a different port? (or, if you've got a dock, connect directly to a port instead?)
(2) on general principles, we'd better check for malware. download fresh definitions and run vigorous virus and spyware scans. if your security software providers offer online scans, run those as well. (they can sometimes pick up an infection in cases where the security software on the PC has been compromised.)
(3) especially if you've recently installed any new hardware on your PC, head into Device Manager to check to see if there's any alert/warning messages showing up next to any of your devices. if you see any, what do they say?
(4) let's also let's also capture a minidump of the crash and send it to the Discussions Hosts, so they can throw it over the fence for the Apple engineers to analyze.
To set up your machine to capture a minidump, right click on "My Computer", select "Properties", select the "Advanced" tab, select the "Startup and Recovery" Settings button, select "small memory dump" from the popup. When it crashes, look for the MiniDump file. It's usually in the folder "C:\WINDOWS\Minidump" and is called something like Mini<number>-<number>.dmp.
And then send it to a Discussions Host. It doesn't hurt to put the URL to this discussion thread, so that whoever gets it has some context. Also give as much information about the context of the crash (in the email) as you can.

Adobe Reader 9 highlights text when scrolling in terminal server

Running a terminal server with WIndow 2003. Have Adobe 9 Reader installed. When a pdf is opened, it will look correct. However, when one uses the scroll bar on the right to see more of the document, text can be highlighted and change colors constantly when scrolling.
Test it outside of terminal server and it works fine. This issue did not happen with other versions of Reader. I have attached two samples one clean and one highlighted.
Any help is appreciated

Very cool. Thanks for the info!

Subject: Adobe Reader 9 highlights text when scrolling in terminal server
Okay. Here is what I found. These settings are changed\saved under the User settings in the registry. Here is the key the changes are made to:
HKCU\Software\Adobe\Adobe Reader\9.0\Originals
When "NONE" is selected from Adobe Reader - Edit - Preferences - Page Display - Rendering, three DWORD values are added to the above mentioned registry key. These are:
Value Name - Value Data
*bAntialiasText - 0
benableDDR - 0
iAntialiasThreshold - 12*
I have added these lines to a login script that adds the necessary DWORD values to default the "Rendering" to NONE.
*reg add "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals" /V bAntialiasText /T REG_DWORD /F /D 0
reg add "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals" /V benableDDR /T REG_DWORD /F /D 0
reg add "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals" /V iAntialiasThreshold /T REG_DWORD /F /D 12*
Cheers!

Ripple effect in Safari browser when scrolling pages

When scrolling through a web page in safari using my new iMac Core Duo 17" there is a "ripple" effect in the middle of the page I'm scrolling through. This happens when I use the mouse to drag the scroll bar on Safari. Happens no matter what web page I'm on. This didn't happen on my iMac G5.
Any else have this problem?

The threads I saw on this are locked... I had no problems with anything UNTIL the 10.4.5. update - now I have the Safari "ripple effect" on almost every web page. I have to select / highlight the "rippled" portion of the page in order to view it properly...Wonder why this happened to my machine after the update? The update seems to have fixed this problem for others...

Numbers crashes when scrolling

Since updating to IOS 8, including all subsequent updates released for IOS 8, Numbers has exhibited crashing when scrolling horizontally or vertically when the spreadsheet exceeds the screen boundaries. I have erased Numbers from the iPad Air (symptoms seem to cover full iPad family) and reloaded from iTunes. This does not resolve the crash. The crash seems to occur when scrolling in a flipping finger motion, vertically or horizontally. The faster the finger flip the more likely and sooner Numbers will crash. Scrolling horizontally or vertically in a slower motion seems to delay the eventual crash, but does not eliminate the problem. This tendency for crashing Numbers renders this software useless. I sincerely hope that the Apple software team will review this problem. It has been sited in a number of other support threads.

I was having similar problems in Lion when with windowserver crashes when switching between windows or scrolling in Numbers or switching to iPhoto from other apps. I upgraded to ML because I was told this may fix the issue. Now i can't keen open iPhoto. I have Pram restarted and iPhoto opens but as soon as an image is selected I have another window server crash. Pre ML install I did a clean install of Lion and it made no difference.
Hopefully no one here told you that. A common theme is people blaming all problem on Lion or Mountain Lion, whatever operating system was just released and telling people with obvious hardware problems that they need to wait for a "bug fix". Updates come and updates go - taking warranties with them - but no fix ever happens.
There is a small possibility that the "Soundflower" kernel extension is giving you problems. It is very unusual to see a kernel panic without Soundflower being listed. If you remove that and still have panics, then it is definitely a hardware problem.

Photos in album are only a hash-marked outline the image only shows when scrolling how can I see the image and open the photo?

Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

30EA3: Monitor sessions grid freezes when scrolling lo last session

Hi,
I've found an issue with the Monitor Sessions grid.
Steps to reproduce the problem (scenario I have tested an reproduced the issue)
1. Open monitor sessions window
2. Order the grid by "OS User" column (In this scenario, my "OS user" is the last one alphabetically)
3. Scroll down in the grid, until reach the last record (as mentioned above, the last session is the same session that is monitoring since my user is the last one alphabetically)
Then SQL Developer freezes, processor time and memory start to increase; and also, seems that SQL Developer window is trying to get the focus, so it doesnt let me navigate freely to other applications, is even difficult to open task manager to kill the process since SQL developer window in the background keeps getting the focus of mouse and keyboard.
Thanks and regards
Ramiro Teran

Hi Raghu,
1. As I mentioned, the scenario I tested was the "Monitor Sessions" grid, at first I only tested scrolling down to the last record, in the master grid using the mouse wheel, but now I have also tried crtl+end, and it also happens
2. 184 records in parent grid (Sessions)
3. The child grid is the "Active SQL" tab (first tab) of the detail of the session.
4. Yes, there was a cell in master selected, but when scrolling down and reaching the bottom (or doing ctrl+end), then the last cell is selected automatically, and SQLDeveloper freezes.
As mentioned in my first post, the SQLDeveloper not only freezes, but doesn't let you navigate to other windows (every couple of seconds SQLDeveloper gets focus on its window, even though is frozen)
I have took an screenshot showing the issue, even though, maybe you can't appreciate the issue on an image, since the image only shows the last record of the monitor sessions grid selected, (at that time SQL developer is hanged, and doens't respond to clics or keyboard comands). Also it shows the Task Manager showing increased memory and CPU ussage from the SQL Developer process. If you're interested in this screenshot, let me know where/how to upload it
Thanks and Regards
Ramiro

My iMac (Maverick) freezes up when scrolling

When scrolling my computer freezes up. The arrow works but I cannot scroll using the track pad. Batteries are fresh.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.

Images dissapearing when scrolling TileList.

Hello,
In the AIR application I am working on, I need to load a large number of images to a TileList on the clients computer. Since they can't be embedded, they were taking a long time to load since each image could be 3-4mb+. In an attempt to reduce the load time (initially and when reloading when scrolling) when the user selected a directory, I would load each image using a Loader and store a scaled down Bitmap of it in an Array. I bound the source property of the Image in the ItemRenderer to the Bitmap in the Array.
This works really well and the images load faster however.. When I scroll and an image goes off the screen and I scroll back to it the tile is blank. Checking the debugger I see that as soon as the tile goes off the screen the BitmapData property of the Bitmap in the array becomes null.
Any ideas on what might be causing this? I can post the code if it would help.
I'm not limited to loading the images this way. I had just seen something similar and was trying to adapt it. If anyone has any other methods or controls that may work better please share!
Thank you in advance for any help.

I have the same problem.

My display color shifts to a blue tint when opening photoshop and bridge with Yosemite

The display on my mac book pro color shifts to a blue tint when opening Photoshop CS6. Any suggestions on how to maintain the current color profile? My photography work is dependent on proper display calibration. Thank you

First open the Universal Access preference pane and in the 'seeing' tab, make sure that the slider for 'enhance contrast' is all the way to the left. Next, open the Displays preference panel and click on the 'color' tab. The click the 'calibrate' button. This will take you through a color/brightness/contrast set up procedure that may eliminate the problem.
There are two options in the calibration process, standard, which is the default option and has fewer adjustment screens, and expert, which is selected by checking the box for it on the first calibration screen and offers more adjustments. You can't do any harm with either since any settings you create can be discarded, or profile(s) you save can be deleted or ignored if necessary.
This won't necessarily resolve the problem, but if not, then it would indicate that there's an issue with the hardware - possibly just the connector on the back of the system, which needs to be fastened really tightly. If you can't readily resolve this, since your system is so new, I'd then suggest you call Apple.
