Try to modify the ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled pref on the about:config page from the default value -1 to 0 or 1 to see if that makes the scroll pad work. 
Close and restart Firefox after changing the ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled pref.

I cant scroll using the touch mouse in firefox but i can in Internet explorer

I've just got a new laptop with windows XP professional, I've reloaeded windows and the drivers. I cant scroll using my mousepad in Firefox but I can in internet explorer and it works in other programs such as MS word.

I cant scroll with the mouse in firefox, the scroll works with other apps

i cant scroll with the mouse in firefox, am using firefox 26

Open a new window or tab. In the address bar, type '''''about:config'''''.
There is a search bar at the top. Type '''scroll.m''' (scroll<'''dot'''>m).
The setting for
'''general.smoothScroll.mouseWheel'''
should be '''TRUE'''.

I play a game called. Rotmg. It needs flashplayer. I cant scroll on the flash. Something is wrong. Can i get help by this?

i Cant scroll on the game. Its really hard to play without. And i play on firefox. So i would like to get help in this matter.

Hello,
Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. [[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] 
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

is there something I can change to improve scrolling in firefox? I've tried to turnoff desktop effects and scrolling is the same annd also running firefox from a fresh profile. Hence, i suspect my nvidia 9800GT card to be the culprit. If anyone has a working xorg.conf with nvidia, 64 bit and smooth scrolling on the above mentioned sites please SHARE! Many Thanks!

Sorry, I don't use KDE, but it may be related to how do you start KDE: from xinit or via KDM or sth.

It's running the same driver as before.

Did you uninstall it? Did you install the nouveau driver? 'pacman -Qqs xf86-video' will tell you what drivers you have installed.
No, I don't have the nouveau driver installed. I have to check if I have the nv driver installed but I didn't uninstall the nvidia driver. I'm starting KDE via xinit.

Can't load the snag it plug in for scrolling with firefox 6.0.1. i have snag it 1.0.3

I have just purchased snag it 1.0.3 for mac. It has a section in the install for loading the plug in for scrolling with firefox. It errored and said it can't load the plug in with firefox 6.0.1 version. What version needs to be in order to use the scrolling feature?

Cant scroll horizontally with mouse wheel in FF

I cant scroll horizontally in FF unter XP+SP3 by pressing the mouse wheel sideways. This is the same in FF 3.6 and 4.0 beta, while in IE 6.0 and in other MS programs (Explorer, Word, ...) it works fine. I am having this problem with 2 different mice: Fujitsu 400NB and easytouch ET-9600. I cant find newer drivers for them than what I have installed from the CDs. Here some settings from my FF: mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.action;0 mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.numlines;1 mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.sysnumlines;true. Some time ago I played around with them but that didn't help. What else can I do to get FF scrolling horizontally?

This should get you there
http://css-tricks.com/snippets/jquery/horz-scroll-with-mouse-wheel/
1. Load the mousewheel min script via CDN (jquery-mousewheel - cdnjs.com - the missing cdn for javascript and css) into the Scripts Panel;
2. Add the provided snippet into your Stage > compositionReady event handler.

***Cant Scroll through fonts using arrow keys

when trying to preview different fonts in AI i am unable to scroll through them using the arrow keys, it just doesnt move... can anyone tell me whats wrong? im sure its pretty simple but i have no idea how to fix it...if it can be fixed... oh im using cs3 and a mac on os x leopard

you cant scroll through fonts in photoshop too. the scrolling stops on an item of the list (maybe photoshop has problem with it), and 1. in photoshop, you can't jump over it, you have to manually place the selection on the item after the one that blocked the scrolling, 2. illustrator will jump backward and you will keep scrolling about max 5-6 fonts over and over.
the font groups divided with lines are meaningless. it doesn't have any relation with regional keysets or any good reason.
a lot of unusable font f....d into the middle of the page.
i have to scroll over a dozens of unusable system fonts, what I cannot uninstall from Windows.
no font management at all.
and yes waiting for another 300$ upgrade too.
(plus another upgrade for a flash, because flash drawing tools didn't see upgrades in their whole lifetimes.
these tools are covered with bugs from top to toe. because nobody takes care of them. 300$ / 1bug.)

Mousepad won't scroll in Firefox

I know this question has been asked before by others, but none of the threads had a working answer and are unlikely to invite new ones as they are slightly old now.
My Vaio touchpad/mousepad won't scroll in Firefox. It works in every other program (pdfs, Internet Explorer etc) and if a pdf is open as a webpage in Firefox, that will scroll, but normal webpages won't. The wheel on a USB mouse works fine, it's just the scroll function on the touchpad.
I've updated the computer, checked for driver updates, uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, turned the computer on and off, cleared the cache etc. and pretty much everything I can think of or have seen in these forums and elsewhere, but nothing is working.
Please help! Thanks.

I have a dell XPS laptop with a synaptics touchpad and I have the same problem. The weird thing is that, unlike for many who have posted about this problem, scrolling did not stop working as soon as I updated to firefox 8. It was fine for a few weeks, maybe well over a month, and then one day, bam!, scrolling just died.
I also noticed something bizarre: scrolling works for the first few seconds after restarting firefox while restored tabs are still loading. As soon as firefox has fully booted, scrolling stops working. This made me think that it's a conflict with one of the add-ons i have running, but disabling them all has not changed anything. I have not yet tried fully removing all of them yet. For now, my best solution is to go back to 3.6. why fix something that works, right?
Anyway, given the number of users who have reported this problem and given how important scrolling is in the way we use the web and our computers in general, the fact that there is still no solution makes the developers over there at Mozilla look quite pathetic. It's kind of as if Ford build a car whose steering wheel can't turn and couldn't figure out why for months and months.

Cant scroll down.......

Ok so all of a sudden my track ball WILL NOT scroll down. It scrolls fluidly in every direction but down. I cant really explain how this problem is even possible. When i try to scroll down the ball literally feels like its cemented to the phone but when i move it up it moves without any friction or problems. Im sure theres nothing i can do to fix it aside from buying a new phone (which is probably why whoever made the thing put in the "HAH now you cant scroll down #@$!#" feature into it). Anyone know a way to resolve the issue without having to mail it in and pay 50 bucks? Even when i scroll down and to the right the ball will move straight to the right only. Its almost as if there is a block that was specifically put in there to prevent it from scrolling down

Zypher, I just gotta ask, why didn't post what you had ALREADY tried doing in the initial post, rather than just coming back and saying you've done all that?
Really, if you want help, give details up front and let users here offer some advice. But if it's like your holding back info... not cool.
Just a suggestion for the future.
Good luck.

Cant scroll in itunes store

since the 10.4.0.80 update i occasionally cant scroll up or down the page. if i go back and forwards to the page again it will work fine. no clue why this is happening. probably just a bug but if anyone can provide any help on possible solutions to this i would appreciate it very much

I found a little trick that might help you a little. Go to what ever album you're looking for and look under the 'listeners also bought column', if you can see the words 'sort by', click on that and the screen should shift to the right. At least I could see the buy button for buying individual songs and I could read peoples comments. Can't figure out what to do in the main pages but if you know what you want then hopefully this can help you. This is a itunes store problem and I complained already, but you and everyone reading this should also, so they would hurry up and fix this. Aloha.

Mo28uo mouse wheel will not scroll in firefox

I have an IBM model MO28UO mouse. The mouse is unable to scroll up and down pages in Firefox using the wheel. It is able to do this in all other programs I have tried. I have downloaded the latest drivers for the mouse and I have changed the settings on the Firefox about:config page as Firefox advises. However, my mouse will still not scroll in Firefox. Any help is appreciated.

A known problem. Do a search for this.

My mouse wont scroll in firefox only

My mouse won't scroll in firefox and have installed drivers (both mouse and firefox). It works in every other application except firefox
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== in last 3 months

You need to clean the ball.
Take a damp rag (lightly dampened with plain water), and roll the ball in all directions with the surface of the damp rag.
After several scrolls in each direction, the ball will be cleaned of the oils from your fingers.
It should start working again after that.
Basically, the oils from your fingers build-up on the ball, and it slips past it's sensors instead of rolling against them.
This is pretty common with trackballs and scroll-wheels.
Hope this helps.
