Can't scroll up and down in Safari

Ever since updating to Safari 6.1 (running on Lion) I've been having problems using the find function (command-f). After I use the find function, Safari either won't let me scroll up and down on the page, or it will let me scroll but the text becomes inverted, garbled and in other words impossible to read. The only solution is to quit Safari and re-open. Has anyone else had this issue and do you know of a fix??

The same thing is happening to me, but not when I use the command + F shortcut. It just happens randomly. Pages won't scroll, and if they do, parts of the page turn upside down and are all garbled. I've attached some screen shots. I was worried this was a virus or malaware, but it's good to hear that's it's Safari's problem. Have you two figured out any solutions yet?

Scrambled display when I use the trackpad to scroll up and down in Safari

Whenever I use two fingers to scroll up and down in Safari, the display gets scrambled. It gets worse, the faster I scroll. The nature of the distortion is that sections of the display are duplicated horizontally which "covers up" the section where the duplication takes place. This does not happen when I scroll up and down using the arrow keys, or if I scroll with the arrows on the right side of the browser window.
Another thing I have noticed is that some videos I watch online have intermittent white sections flashing in.

It is certain that some people are having problems, all I can confirm is that my 2.0GHz MacBook does not seem to have this problem.
However, after having looked at this thread and another link it seems that a lot of the posts about problems are coming from users of the MacBook Pros and the 2.4GHz MacBooks. Thus, this makes me wonder if the CPU speed might have something to do with this issue. Along with the CPU another issue might be heat (which would seem to be a greater concern with both the MacBook Pro and the 2.4GHz MacBook) and whether the affected systems are equipped with more than 2GB DRAM and whether than DRAM is third-party or from Apple (i.e. these problems could be caused by issues with the DRAM).
Of course, no one can yet say where the problems may be but system "overheating" and/or DRAM could be involved. When I write "overheating" I'm not suggesting user abuse, just that this may be a temperature sensitive issue.
For the record my MacBook has all of the latest firmware, trackpad, and system updates and is the standard 2.0GHz model with Apple-issued 2GB DRAM and 160GB HD. Below is my hardware overview from Apple's System Profiler:

TS3048 can't scroll up and down with wireless mouse, I have checked setting and everything looks good. Any suggestions on what else I can check?

My wireless mouse has stopped scrolling up and down. I have checked my settings and everything looks good. Any suggestions on what else to check?

Hi:
I wish my suggestion had gotten you further.
I do suggest you try to connect the keyboard again. The request for a number is a step in it trying to pair. If it gets by the number, it sometimes takes a little while to get connected. If you are unable to get it connected and want a new one, I have been using Apple Bluetooth keyboards for years - and I like them. The one I have (the newest model) only uses two batteries and is very thin.
Speaking of batteries, if you are not already doing so, you might consider rechargeables. I have a drawer full of them and use a 15 minute charger. I go tired of buying batteries and rechargeables are environmentally friendly to boot. At the moment, I use 2450 mAh Energizers and a 15 minute Energizer charger (all purchased new on eBay at a very reasonable price).
I am far from an iPad "expert," although I have one. If my suggestion below does not help, post your question in a separate thread in the iPad forum.
I had a terrible time syncing my iCal on my Mac with my iPad iCal (confusing - hopefully it makes sense). I quit using iCloud as that added to the confusion. There is a facility to one-time sync items. When you connect your computer to your iPad, iTunes opens. The system begins a process (automatic backup and so on). After it finishes, you can click on "info." At the bottom of the screen, there is an advanced section. You can select any of the items and then force it to sync. The iCal information from your computer would be deposited on the iPad.
After all that, I do not use a Google calendar so the information may be worthless to you.
If you want to reset the iPad to factory settings, you can do that when it is connected to iTunes (one of the options). Me being me, I try never to erase anything.

Tablet slideshow can be scrolled up and down

Hi,
Built first site in Muse an used a theme. Seems to work okay but when the slideshow is launched on the ipad version the used can scroll away from ther slideshow. Is there anyway to limit this so the user stays on the slideshow.
Thanks
Site is shandmedia.com

Hi
The site page shows up a slide show in center when opened and as the page is long with other page elements , users can scroll the page.
If you don't want users to scroll the page then you can create a separate start page for Tablet version and include only the slideshow with menu options.
Please let me know if i am missing something here.
Thanks,
Sanjit

I have ipad 1 and I guess I locked it. Somehow I got it to unlock but now I have to tap on everything twice and I can't scroll up and down. Help!!!!

I need your help. I locked my ipad while I was cleaning the screen. I guess the tapped the home button too often. Tried everything I know and got ipad to open up again, but it's not working like it did prior to the lock. It won't scroll normally, I have to tap on everything twice, and it keeps searching for new mail. Any suggestions. This is very frustrating and the first time I've ever had a problem with my iPad.

The iPad 1 can't run the newer operating systems. It'd be like trying to play a bluray disc in your 6 year old dvd player....it simply lacks the hardware to make the software run.
No suggestion about the camera, but given that Apple's attitude seems to be to focus more on the more mobile devices for photography (the iPhone and Touch cameras got features, the iPad and mini didn't), that is highly unlikely. You can tell Apple what you want, but you'd probably be money ahead to get a digital camera.
as to the photos, anything put on via iTunes has to come off via iTunes.Your main alternative would be to look for photo apps that offer file exchange that may give you more functionality.

No way of scrolling up and down - can anybody help?

Suddenly the side sliders have disappeared and I can't scroll up and down. Can anybody help? Thanks.

You would need to talk with whoever manages/admins the Connect account you use. They will have access to your user account and the ability to reset your password.

If you can't scroll up or down, change the batteries of your mouse....

I have Lenovo Thinkpad laptop and Lenovo optical USB mouse connected to docking station. Mouse wheel works in all applications except Firefox.
The solution I found: go to "Control Panel/Mouse/Wheel" (I have here some Lenovo application).
The first option "Wheel" on the tab has 2 choices: "Enable Universal Scrolling" (default) and "Use Microsoft Office 97 Scrolling Emulation Only". If I switch to 2nd option, then scrolling works in Firefox. Since Firefox is the only application that has a problem, I keep the 1st option, but add Firefox to "Exceptions" list. Now scrolling works fine.

Start with the third suggestion in this list - the one about resetting Safari.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Reset Safari. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Quit Safari and restart. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

How can I get a search bar added to my email archives screen to make it easier to search for the right archives folder, Samsung has one so I was surprised to see that I have to scroll up and down to find the right folder?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

HT204407 why is the display on my icloud page so freaking big. It's magnified about a hundred times and why can't I scroll up and down. The thing is frozen. It's very irritating.

Why is the display on my icloud page so freaking large. It's magnified about a hundred times. It's like I can see only one letter at a time. I'm using a PC, but I recently bought an Iphone, so I was going with their technology. But this Icloud display thing is just a pain in the ***. I can't even use the scroll up and down feature. It's just a frozen solid block.

My display for iCloud on my desktop is the same. Magnified and can't find a way to fix it. It is the same for all the accounts in my family. It is magnified on my sign in page.

How do you scroll up and down on the library and playlists? I can only see an up arrow at the top of the first column on the left and it only switches between the top 28 songs and the bottom 28.

How do I scroll up and down playlists and library on the new iTunes format.? When I ckick on the arrow in the box at the top of the far left column it only switches between the top and bottom 28 songs.

Hi
I looked at the specs for your laptop and there is no HDMI out port for this model but RGB & Headphones out jack should work. Here is the link for closeup views of the ports.

I don't know if this is the right section but I experience the following issue with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI installed on Windows 8.1. When I start Acrobat the related window opens normally but, after some scroll up and down along the document, it blocks, Acrobat doesn't respond to any command I can give and, in place of the pointer arrow, a vertical bar, as the one of the text editor appears. The only way I can stop Acrobat is by means of the task manager. I tried to de-install and the re- install Acrobat but the behaviour is always the same. What can I do??

Have you opened Acrobat and gone to Help>Updates to get an updated install?
