Gestures, Dock and Scrolling are lagging

Hello everybody!
Since yesterday i have the problem of lagging gesture movements, a lagging dock or lagging scrolling in several browsers. With lagging I mean stuttering movement of the animations. The problem appeard out of nowhere and i searched the whole internet for troubleshooting. Neither creating a new user, nor starting in save mode solved the problem. Also I already cleared the chace in the library folder and used the task-manager to spot the problem, both without success. The only weird thing i could spot was the kernel_task using high amounts of the memory and CPU.
I don't have a clue what the problem is. The only way out I see for now would be reinstalling the OS X (Mavericks), which probably is my emergency solution. Is there anybody who can help me?
I've got the
MacBook Pro 13", Mid 12
2,5 Ghz, i5
4GB 1600 Mhz DDR3
OS X 10.9
Update:
Ok, I didn't believe it by myself, but I fixed the program by simply running AutoCAD 2013. Found the solution in another conversation. Just opened it once and now the whole system is lag-free again. Weird!

My Dock and Trash are missing

I think I accidentally deleted some essential files for my dock and now it is missing from my desktop. I have tried searching for the deleted files, but I can't find my Trash anymore. Also, my desktop background is blank and it won't let me change it. Any ideas?

Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

TS2755 i receive an error message telling me my music dock and computer are not supported by iphone

I have had my Iphone 4 since May 2011. It got wet. It receives phone calls and messages, email plays music on the phone. But if I try and connect it to my music dock or computer I receive an error messagetelling me Iphone does not support this device. I have never had issues with this before. My husbands I phone works fine on the music dock and my computer.

There is a good chance this issue is related to water damage, but it could be a whole other issue entirely.
If it were me, I would try backing up and then restoring the phone.
Follow the steps in this article to BACK UP and RESTORE either through iTunes or iCloud.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
If that doesn't work, you can use the CONTACT APPLE support tool (https://expresslane.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.do;jsessionid=NH2hP4VHSp7Dxggz 0TL4QGL09FPBQ5Hkxl59rLypshXhcNPs4nvp!-2009127310) which is online and easy to follow. I recommend this because it will allow you to enter the serial # from your device and should steer you in the right direction, especially if the phone is from Singapore. There might be some differences in software that I am not personally aware of.
You can get your serial # by going into SETTINGS-->GENERAL-->ABOUT on your iPhone.
Let me know if this helps you!
Good luck

The cursor and scrolling are erratic to the point of having to shut the computer down, any suggestions?

I have an imac that has erratic scrolling, it just scrolls to the bottom of the page or in whatever area the cursor is positioned at. It comes and goes and sometimes it's just best to shut the computer down to solve the issue. Any suggestions?

Hi..
Command + Option + Esc will prompt the Force Quit window.
You can also force quit an app from your Apple menu top left in your screen or by using the Activity Monitor located in Applications/Utilities

Flash Animations and Movies are lagging after having played a flash game which was graphics intense heavy and frequently refreshed which caused lags, how can I fix this lagging problem for Flash?

On June 30th, I was playing a game called Lil Einstein's Manhattan project over at Newgrounds.com and the game although fine at first, later on in the advanced levels of the game, started to cause my browser to lag intensely and heavily. Now, when I try and watch other flash movies and animations, the flash doesn't run as smoothly, there are skips in the flash animations and movies, and it slows down.
I tried scan disks, I tried defragmenting my computer, I tried uninstalling and re-installing Firefox.. Nothing worked to restore the Flash.
But when I view Flash movies and animations on Internet Explorer, they run fine... but not anymore on Firefox.
Other Firefox users who have played this game also reported problems as well..
How can I fix my Firefox Browser and return the Flash running to normal?
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== June 30th, 2010

If you have already scanned PC with an updated Anti-Virus and still the issue exists then I would suggest some troubleshooting techniques to resolve this problem:
Update browser
Remove unwanted Add-ons
Remove unwanted Tool-bars
Repair Registry
Repair ActiveX objects and shared DLLs
In case of facebook and Zynga I would suggest to Check for Problems with your Internet Connection.Try to Update Java and Reduce the Number of Running Internet Applications.
Sometimes Multimedia content lag due to Hardware Acceleration, so disabling Hardware Acceleration should fix your problem.
Open Flash Video in browser
Right click on Video Player | Settings
Open Display Panel
Uncheck Enable Hardware Acceleration
If issue still exists then you can find some more techniques described in detail here:

The rubber band does not work and scrolls are visible always on early macbook 2008, is this normal?

one of the key things in lion is that when i dn't need the scrolls, i won't see them, but they don't go away! is this suppose to be like this on the old machines?
and i don't get the ruber band effect like on my iphone...

BUMP
Any ideas?

HT4864 switched to Lion and iCloud and my mail and scrolling are a mess. Help?

I am not receiving important online bills and my sent mail is not received. Any suggestions with the new products?

My calendar synchs OK, but mail is a mess. Mobile Me was a LOT better than iCloud.
I have no clue how Apple thinks iCloud is an improvement.
Switched to drop box and it works really well for synching files. Looking for something to replace the Apple mail. Maybe the plan is to make the service so bad everyone will quit using it and they can kill it.

Dock and Menu disappear only for Safari

My dock and menu disappear only when I am using Safari. They re-appear when I hover my mouse at the location that they should be at, but for some reason their default positions are to be hidden.
The dock and menu are present for all other apps and when I'm on the desktop--basically whenever Safari isn't "chosen" as the active window.
I have checked to make sure that Safari is NOT in Full Screen mode. What could be the problem?

This has happened to me before and it took me a long time to work it out.
But all you need to do is froce quit safari or any application that this is happening to and start the application again.
Hope it works.

HP Advisor Dock - Customize Width and Scroll no longer working.

Hi there,
I've seen quite a few posts about not liking the Advisor Dock because it takes up space but I on the other hand quite like it. I put a lot of my shortcuts and icons there because it saves space and I could scroll between different icons just by swiping.
Without going into too much detail, my HP advisor just updated itself and now the slide to scroll feature doesn't work. it just picks up an icon and drags it.
Is there any way I can reenable this ? is there a config file somewhere?
I noticed they changed the size of the bar as well, possibly to fit their new lines of products but I'd like to resize it back to the way it was also.
Can you help?

Hi eg1978
Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are having issues with your two finger scrolling. I have a couple of things for you to try. This HP document Using and Configuring the TouchPad has a section on Turning individual gestures off and on and make sure that the two finger scrolling is enabled. If that does work then reinstall your Synaptics TouchPad Driver.
Please click “Accept as Solution ” if you feel my post solved your issue.

Dock magnification, menu bar and scrolling problems

I'm running 10.6.4 and have suddenly noticed that for no apparent reason, dock magnification, roll over menus and screen scrolling in Zoom mode have stopped working. I've checked all the settings and they are set properly. If I shut down and restart, everything works fine for a few minutes, then the problem starts up again. I've fixed permissions and have even unplugged the Mac for a few minutes, but nothing seems to work permanently. I've checked my CPU cycles and they're down in the 1-4% range, so nothing seems to be running in the background. I'm baffled why this suddenly began and why, after a restart it works fine for a few minutes then the problem starts up again. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Dock and other smooth transitions are sticking or "shaking"

Just got a new 15 inch Retina MBP and so far the experience has been extremely positive. The only problem I'm having are that transitions that should usually be smooth are sticking and shaking back and forth. The dock, for example, comes up smoothly, jumps to about half and then comes fully up again. The same thing happens when it moves back down. Similar things are happening when apps transition to full screen, or when I scroll through websites. Is anyone else having this problem?

I have exactly the same problem and your clue worked for me too...
I've opened AutoCAD, closed and the "shaking"/"jittering" in the dock and transitions disappeared.
It looks like when the intel "GPU" works it has shaking/jittering effect and when device switches to nVidia it resolves the problem.
Hope Apple Support team can reproduce and debug the problem and make the patch.
Regards,
Daniil

When I open Firefox it just says firefox on the upper left corner and apperas to be open on the dock but there are no windows anywhere.HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One day randomly for no reason whatsoever, I opened up firefox on my mac and it just said firefox on the upper left as if it was open. the little upside down triangle appeared below the icon on the dock, like it was open. However, there are no windows anywhere. I click file and new window and nothing.
I right click the firefox icon on the dock and it says that there windows for example, my home page, but there is NOTHING.
I uninstalled and reinstalled and it keeps doing the same thing.
Your website has NO SUPPORT whatsoever and it has taken me a half hour clicking around to get to this portion where I can write what the issue is and no one will ever probably see this so whats the point. I guess I'm stuck with fucking safari now.
Firefox had been working great up to this point, I literally opened it the other day and this happened just completely random.

Hello,
Sorry you are frustrated. If you have improvements you would like to make, you can file them to the [[Suggestion Box]] and the Firefox logo in the top left with upside down arrow is the Firefox button containing menu items. Try a clean reinstall as instructed below to see if it resolved your issue.
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
