    can anyone helps me ?
    thanks in advance
    Best regards

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    That's a Mountain Lion feature. To turn it off, open System Preferences > Trackpad > Scroll and Zoom, and turn off "Scroll direction: natural". For the mouse, open System Preferences > Trackpad and turn off "Scroll direction: natural"

  • MBA won't connect to iPhone or Jambox via Bluetooth, but works with bluetooth Apple Mouse

    MBA won't connect to iPhone or Jambox via Bluetooth, but works fine with bluetooth Apple Mouse. When trying to pair with the iPhone it says "The Bluetooth Network is unavailable. There was an error connecting to your device. Make sure the device is turned on and in range." When trying to connect to the Jambox it says "Bluetooth audio failed. There was an error connecting to your headset. Make sure it is turned on and in range. The audio portion of the program you were using may have to be restarted." The iPhone and Jambox pair together fine, and I have paired with both the iPhone and the Jambox easily in the past. I haven't updated anything - it just stopped working with these two devices. This is very frustrating.

    I could not pair with Uconnect on a 2011 Jeep after upgrading to iOS 8.2 on an iPhone 6. After shutting off iCloud and resetting network settings I was able to successfully pair the phone to Uconnect

  • APPLE MOUSE DOESN'T SCROLL IN MAIL?

  • Thinkpad bluetooth laser mouse won't scroll in VMware

    Hi,
    I have the Thinkpad bluetooth laser mouse, which I really love, and use extensively VMware on my T500.
    Unfortunately the scroll wheel doesn't work in my VMware marchine (it's a XP pro VM)
    when I plug a very old usb IBM mouse the wheel does work however.
    I tried to install the Lenovo Mouse suite on the VM itself but it didn't pick the mouse, which I believe is normal since VMware is already providing the driver for the mouse.
    When I look in the hardware tab of the mouse properties in control panel, it list 3 devices:
    VMware Pointing Device
    HID compliant mouse
    HID compliant mouse
    Has anyone a clue on how to enable the laser mouse wheel?
    likewise, the scroll on the touchpad won't work neither.
    I tried to play with the hardware option but nothing came successful.
    some collegues have hogitech mice and the wheel works fine.
    Thanks in advance

    I have the same problem. The mice work fine mostly with host system regardless to operation system(XP/W7/Ubuntu), but the scroll doesn't work in vmware. I don't think it is related to virtual system because any other mouse work fine in the same virtual OS. I think Lenovo should to investigate it and change the behavior of scroll wheel because it seems to be different to other mouse. I like the feature that the scroll wheel is working in current window where the pointer is, but maybe the feature cause the problem, the scroll wheel is out of work in vmware.

  • Just updated to lion 10.7.4 now Apple mouse won't scroll with touch sensor

    The mouse is a Apple Magic Mouse a1296-3vdc (Not the mighty mouse with wheel, the sensor one). I don't think I can live without the scroll function..

    There do seem to be known issues with the 7300. I'm temped to get an upgrade just for Photoshop performance.
    In the meantime, I'm ready to do a complete reinstall on the new drive.
    Hatter, what steps would you recommend for the most reliable results?

  • Apple mouse will not scroll down

    I have a wirelss mouse (not a Magic Mouse).  The poor creature will not scroll down, infact when using the track button to scroll down, it will go up.  Any suggestions as to how this can be cured.  When I had Apple Care (it is now expired) of the experts suggested rubbing a piece of paper vigoursly over the button a few dozen times - however the mouse now seems to have developed a resistence to this treatment. 

    You're in the Time Capsule forum...no one here focusing on mice.  However...maybe this can help:

  • Apple mouse no longer scrolls down in Firefox

    Today my mouse stopped scrolling down or up in Firefox, though scrolling side to side still works. This is only happening in Firefox. I just downloaded 30.0 and that didn't help. The about:config settings for scrolling are ok. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this in Firefox?

    Does this only affects the mouse and can you still scroll with the keyboard?
    Can you move the scroll bar thump with the left mouse button pressed?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • Bluetooth Apple mouse suddenly very fast

    I've used the Apple BT mouse since getting the Mac mini G4 more than a year ago with no problems. It's set to the second highest notch in Systems Preferences. Yesterday the batteries ran out and I replaced them after switching the computer off. When I turned the mini on 10 minutes ago, the mouse movement was suddenly very fast. I had to bring it down to the second slowest notch and even then it feels faster than it was before. The lowest setting slows it down to an unusable crawl. I've repaired permissions, rebooted and switched the mouse off and on without changing its behaviour. I'm on 10.4.7 and up to date in OSX. It isn't a major bother. Just curious about what's going on.

    Hi again, Glenn:
    I solved the problem by changing the batteries. Very strange. I started fiddling with the mouse after the new postings on this thread and all of a sudden it stopped working. It would click but would not move. I thought I had a dead mouse since the battery gauge still showed 3 bars and there was no warning of low power. I changed the batteries and the mouse came back to life in its original condition. Funny thing is, all 4 batteries were from the same pack of 8 Duracell alkalines. If this was a battery defect, it's certainly the first time I've ever come across one. Now I find the "reduced" speed too slow and have set the tracking speed to maximum!

  • Lost vertical scroll bar on Reader

    How do you turn it back on?

    Could you please help me. i tried by creating staked canvas but no luck.What happened when you tried to use a stacked canvas?
    If the items in the area you want to scroll are all in the same datablock you can set the Scrollbar properties of the block to be displayed. This will enable scrolling of the items that are within the specific block. If you items are assembled from more than block, then using a stacked canvas is a better option for enabling scrolling within an area.
    Also, what is your Forms version?

  • Apple Mouse (Bluetooth) Problem

    I'm having problems with the tracking on my Bluetooth Apple Mouse and I was wondering if Apple has a manual on this mouse. There is at least one switch on there that I have no idea what it's about.
    I've fiddled with it and gotten the tracking to work again. Other times it doesn't work. I have no idea what that switch is about.
    Also, I've taken one of the batteries out and then back in again. Sometimes that works. Sometimes it doesn't.
    However, with a haphazard working of both of these things, and repeating them several times over again -- at some point I'll get it to working and tracking once again. I can't see any pattern to what is causing it to start working again -- other than just doing these things over and over again -- until it does.
    Perhaps someone has the answers to the manual and/or how to get this tracking problem fixed.
    Best regards...

    Unfortunately, this could be any number of things.
    One likely suspect is the batteries. If you're using
    rechargeables, try good new regular ones for a while.
    The rechargeables are 1.2 volts, regular AAs are
    1.5. Sometimes that makes a difference.
    I've thought of using those, but I don't. What I do -- though -- is take out one battery when I'm not using it. I don't use the mouse but every few days (or so), and maybe for up to a week or so. So, that way I figure I keep the battery in good shape.
    Even brand new ones sometimes don't work, or don't
    work right. Try cleaning the contacts in the mouse,
    and the top and bottom of the batteries with alcohol,
    acetone (carefully), or the like. Try other new
    batteries. I've had brand-new ones test fine with a
    volt meter, but just not work. Never did figure out
    why. Others in the same pack were fine.
    Well, I do carry a set of brand new ones, so that I'll be ready to replace them. And I've tried the new ones before, to see if that was the problem. I still encounter this kind of "tracking" problem. Now, mind you the "clicking" always works okay. So, I'm getting a Bluetooth connection always. However, it's only the tracking (and not the "clicking") that is not working. It's always that way without any variation (if there is any kind of problem at all).
    Interference is another common problem. Airport,
    cordless phones, etc., can interfere. Try turning
    off everything you can find for a while. If you see
    improvement, turn one at a time back on.
    Now, I'll be (usually) in public places when I do use the mouse (like Starbucks or McDonalds), so that might be difficult to isolate any others that are using Bluetooth. However, I do use another Bluetooth device (but not at the same time). It's a Bluetooth GPS receiver. It always works (although it's the only bluetooth connected at the time).
    If all else fails, I recommend a double Scotch.
    Won't help, but you may not care!
    Well..., it's irritating, but I can usually get it to working in about three to five minutes by taking the battery in and out and/or flipping that switch back and forth. It's never been any longer than about five minutes for me to get it to fully working again. But, since I've seen several others here mentioning this problem, it seems to me that it's some kind of hardware or software problem -- especially since the Bluetooth connection is made and is functioning with the mouse clicks (always without fail).
    Good luck.
    Thanks -- but say..., do you know what that "switch" is -- underneath the battery cover?
    Best Regards...

  • Apple Mouse only scrolls in one direction after 10.6.8 update

    I just updated to 10.6.8 security update, itunes and safari update (I think?) Can't remember now. The update was 10-4-11.
    My Apple mouse now only scrolls in one direction. I thought is was dirty and it is not. There are posted issues with this safarie update with mouse related problems, however I am experiencing them in all programs.
    Rebooted several times, re-cleaned mouse scroll ball, did the paper trick by cleaning. No success.
    I can scroll down but not up. It forces me to grab the scroll bar and manually drag the scrolling window.
    Again ALL programs. Was just fine right before the update. Now a problem after

  • Mighty Mouse won't scroll

    None of the answers to this topic solved my problem. All of a sudden my bluetooth mighty mouse won't scroll. I can set it to 360 degrees and it will scroll horizontally. But it won't scroll horizontally or vertically if I set it to both. Help!

    Have you tried resetting bluetooth?
    I have been having the same problem since nearly as long as I've had my mighty mouse, and cleaning it never solved the problem.
    I just called apple and got them to send me out a new one, but before they did they told me to do this.
    Turn off your Mac, removed the power and battery and hold down the power button for 5 seconds. Then turn it back on, but while you turn it back on hold down the altcmnd+RP buttons together. You will hear it ching two times as it turns on, let go after the second ching. This apparently resets the bluetooth and it fixed my mouse, it now works perfectly.
    I'd recommend taking the advise of an apple technical advisor first before trying this, I have a MacBook from last year and that's what i did.

  • Wireless Mighty Mouse - No Horizontal Scroll

    PB G4 10.4.6
    Brand new Wireless Mighty Mouse.
    Vertical Scroll - ok
    Zoom -ok
    Will not scroll Horizontally - and have no idea of what 360 is

    Brand new Wireless Mighty Mouse.
    Vertical Scroll - ok
    Zoom -ok
    Will not scroll Horizontally - and have no idea of
    what 360 is
    To achieve horizontal scrolling you have to select the 360 Degree option. With this option, the mighty mouse driver activates the x-axis sensor inside the mouse. With both x- and y-axis sensors working, the scroll ball operates like your typical analog ball mouse of yore--only it's upside-down. Personally, I think the System Preference option should read "2π Radians."
