How can I enable one finger scrolling in Lion ?

I have looked everywhere to try and find a way to set up "scroll zones." Where you touch with one finger on the vertical or horizontal edges of the trackpad to scroll. All my serches result in "scrolling reversed in OSX Lion" and I have found it impossible to wade through them, I have this amazingley huge trackpad and I can't use it like I'm used to. Please help.

Thanks for the quick reply. I do enjoy the two finger scrolling. However using it exclusively cramps my fingers and I would image it cramps other peoples fingures as well, I'm not looking to replace the two fingure scrolling. I am looking to suppliment it with scrolling zones though, I have this enourmous trackpad (the best in the mobile computing world) that would be absoutely ideal for use with scrolling zones. I have been researching quite a bit and can't find a solution. Hoping I can find a solution here. I would love to be able to slide one finger sideways along the top and bottom to scroll to the side, and slide one finger up and down along the left and right edges to scroll up and down. I really hope I can find a solution. Please somebody....let me know if theres a program/plugin that can do this????

  • Scroll bar does not appear in some PDF files. How can I enable it?

    Scroll bar does not appear in some PDF files. How can I enable it?

    Scroll bars are supposed to appear when needed.
    For example, scroll bars will appear when you zoom in on a page.
    FAQ: How to zoom in/out on a page
    Windows 8 automatically hides scroll bars after a few seconds of inactivity.  Scroll bars will reappear when you touch the screen and move your finger (on a Touch-enabled device) or move your mouse.
    Additionally, page navigation depends on the view mode (Single Page vs. Continuous Page).
    In the Single Page mode, you can swipe left/right (horizontally) or click the left/right arrow button with your mouse to go to the previous/next page.
    In the Continuous Page mode, you can swipe or scroll up/down (vertically) to go to the previous/next page.

  • OS X Lion: Enable One Finger Drag Gesture / Disabling auto-opening of documents in applications

    I managed to solve most Lion user issues I had and which were driving me crazy. Dashboard works like old Dashboard, scrolling is normal etc. etc. etc.
    Last two things which were driving me nuts are/were:
    3 fingers drag and drop gesture
    today I found solution and I thought I could post about it here, might be driving crazy more people than just me
    http://navinpeiris.com/2011/07/22/os-x-lion-enable-one-finger-drag-gesture/
    So simple and yet I wasn't able to discover it on my own....
    applications remember what windows you had opened
    now if I could just find a way how to disable this; each time I'm quiting application I have to manually close all windows, documents etc., or they will be there when I next launch the application, which soon enough leads terminal to have 30 opened windows each time I launch it!
    why I have to manually close every single windows before quit is beyond me; I want to disable this new feature, I can manage opening documents and windows very well for myself....
    If I could just disable this last thing, I would be very very happy Lion user. Now, after getting the old drag and drop gesture, I'm just happy.

    Thanks SO MUCH!

  • Intermittent bug in Touchpad One-Finger Scrolling with High-DPI display scaling

    This one is quite strange (since it does not happen all the time) but very annoying - on my T420s (with 1600x900 screen) I am using 150% DPI scaling in Windows7 (Pro x64). Ultranav driver is 16.2.5.0.
    I am using the preinstalled Chrome browser in a rather default configuration - and by default that program declares itself not High-DPI-aware and gets scaled up by desktop composition - something that can be changed in the properties from the compatibility tab, but which I keep like that since there are sites that look better this way!
    Long story short - touchpad scrolling fails to work in more than 50% of the cases in that specific Chrome setup in a way that strongly suggests it is a bug where the touchpad scrolling program fails to account for the fact that Chrome runs "scaled-up" - if Chrome is maximized and the mouse is positioned in the top half AND left-half of the screen scrolling works as expected, HOWEVER when the mouse pointer is positioned (still 100% over the Chrome window) towards the right/bottom extremes scrolling fails and the Ultranav driver seems to send the scrolling messages to some other window than Chrome! (since it seems to fail to take into account the 150% scaling - so it gets wrong values with GetWindowRect and should probably use instead stuff like DwmGetWindowAttribute(hWnd, DWMWA_EXTENDED_FRAME_BOUNDS...))!
    Steps to repeat the bug:
    - Windows 7 machine, large-resolution screen with Custom DPI text size set to 150% and the older XP-style scaling disable (which enables the new DWM scaling)
    - Chrome browser in default mode (which will use scaling); to repeat things easily the window should be maximized and the URL should be set to some long page on which scrolling can be performed
    - scrolling should be enabled in Touchpad settings (I do not normally use ChiraMotion, but I do not think it makes a difference)
    - mouse pointer should be positioned in the right-most 10% of the window and Touchpad One-Finger Scrolling should be attempted;
    - in many/most cases the scrolling messages are sent to some other window beneath Chrome (but NOT always, so it seems there might be another factor in play)
    - it is interesting that the different TrackPoint scrolling seems to work even in those conditions.

    You won't get a response from Adobe in these user-to-user forums but you will be heard if you post your frustration via the official bug report form:

  • How can I enable SuperFetch?

    Hi,
    I downloaded Java from Java.com (free download) to be able to open a file I received as email attachment. After the download something happened to my laptop pc (Windows 7). I received pop up messages that said something like "Your computer got infected
    you need to install Windows Defender 2015. And they started to pop up almost every second and also the screen view changed. It got upside down or windows messages moved and seemed to be multiplied, very unusual things kept going...
    I stopped it and went online on my tablet pc and looked for what to do if my computer got infected with virus (because that's what I thought happened). From what I read online I made sure that all Microsoft windows experts were all recommending to start
    my pc in safe mode and I found some instructions such as going to Task Manager and ending processes and also to clear some files and folders in Registry Editor. I wasn't able to clear files and folder in Registry Editor. To make short, I came to the conclusion
    that I needed live help from a Microsoft expert. I chatted online with some MS Support Desk techs and followed their instructions but it didn't help at all. When I click on the little flag icon with a red cross sign on it(the one that says Open Action Center)
    it says 1 important message-Turn on Windows Security Center service(Important) I tried to turn it on (I don't know how many times!) but I get the message "The Windows Security Center can't be started"
    I went to Troubleshooting and clicked on Check of Performance issues (under System and Security) it did checking and I got the message "Problems Found- SuperFetch is not running. Not Fixed. 
    My question is: HOW CAN I GET SuperFetch running? or How can I enable SuperFetch?
    Thank you.

  • Mountain Lion Recovery DVD - How can I make one, ML was installed on my iMac and BBP

    Mountain Lion Recovery DVD - How can I make one, ML was installed on my iMac and MBP when I purchased them. When I look at the App Store, it dose not show ML as purchased (to download again) - do I have to purchase it again to make a Recovery DVD?
    Thanks for your help.
    Regards
    NGI

    do i have to purchase it again to make a Recovery DVD?
    No. You can still make a bootable recovery DVD, but you will not be able to make a full bootable copy of ML without purchase.
    1) Enable the debug menu for Disk Utility via Terminal Application. Navigate to terminal by typing "terminal" in   spotlight. Copy the bolded text below and enter it into the command prompt:
    defaults write com.apple.DiskUtility DUDebugMenuEnabled -bool true ; open -a "Disk Utility" ; exit
    2) From the Debug Menu > Select Show every Partition > Recovery HD should appear
    3) Right click (control + click) the Recovery HD partition and select "Mount"
    4) Right click again the partition again > "Reveal Recovery HD in Finder". Leave this window open
    5) At this point, you will need open terminal again and enter the following command:
    sudo chflags nohidden /Volumes/Recovery\ HD/com.apple.recovery.boot/BaseSystem.dmg ; exit
         Type your password when prompted.
    6) Navigate back to the Recovery HD finder Window > com.apple.recovery.boot > BaseSystem.dmg
    7) Drag "BaseSystem.dmg" into Disk Utility's sidebar.
    8) Insert your DVD
    9) Select "BaseSystem.dmg" in the sidebar and hit "Burn"
    Once the burn is completed, hold option down at startup and select the DVD to boot. This is a bootable Recovery partition, not a bootable copy of ML.
    Note: to disable the debug menu,
    defaults write com.apple.DiskUtility DUDebugMenuEnabled -bool false

  • How can I enable javascript in my cellphone?

    I would like to enable javascript in my cellphone , samsung intensity 2, but no idea how, How can I enable javascript?

    Hello desiree7790!
    I understand your desire to change or enable web browser settings on your Samsung Intensity II.  I would like to assist you with your device.
    The device you have has web capabilities using a feature called "Mobile Web".  It's not a full web browser, such as one you would find on a smartphone device, but does offer a limited mobile web experience.  There are no options on your device to enable Javascript; however, there are web settings you can adjust.  The instructions for accessing these settings are found on page 91 of your device manual, which I've included in a link here.
    I trust I have answered your question, and have addressed your concern.

  • How can I enable Windows Explorer (Windows 7 64 bit) to open LabView 8.2.1 LLB files?

    How can I enable Windows Explorer to open LabView LLB files? I am running LabView 8.2.1 on Windows 7 64 bit. The option “Enable Windows Explorer for LLB Files” in Tools/Options/Environment is unchecked and grayed out.

    LabVIEW until 7.1 came with a shell extension that could display the content of an LLB in an explorer window.
    That was removed in LabVIEW 8.x for  a number of reasons.
    - Shell extensions are pretty badly documented, tricky to implement right, and of very limited use since only Windows Explorer and a few explorer replacements can use them. It doesn't add any functionality for most other programs in Windows, since the shell extension are a Windows Explorer thing, and not a Windows core technology.
    - With 8.x NI decided that LLBs were pretty old fashioned and their main feature of supporting file names longer than the DOS 8.3 naming was pretty much obsoleted by then, while they didn't allow for more than one level of directory hierarchy. So they decided to depreciate LLBs and declared them a legacy technology that should not be used for new development anymore.
    - For the uupcoming 64 bit version of Windows a new shell extension would have been required to allow Explorer to use it.
    For all these reasons the LLB shell extension was removed from the LabVIEW installation to further discourage the use of LLBs.
    If you have a LabVIEW 7.0 or 7.1 installation on your computer and run 32 Bit Windows you can enable the shell extension in the LabVIEW Options dialog.

  • How can I enable OpenGL in Photoshop? I already enable OpenCL, but I still can't open 3d obj

    How can I enable OpenGL in Photoshop? I already enable OpenCL, but I still can't open 3d obj

    If you have the latest updates for 10.6.8 then you have the most recent drivers available for you system.   You shouldn't have to download drivers from nVidia's site.  3D and OpenCL should be supported by that card, but I can't confirm until I have access to a system with that card (I have one in my office, but won't be there until Monday morning).  I'll check first thing Monday morning and update this thread with what I find.
    For now, try resetting your PS preferences:
    Resetting preferences returns OpenGL settings to their default status. Reset Photoshop preferences by pressing and holding Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Windows) or Shift+Option+Command (Mac OS) immediately after you start Photoshop. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings File.

    hm...
    I'm having an issue with a bouncing or "creeping" effect when I type in TextEdit; after having ugraded to Snow Leopard.
    I'm now cross-posting a bit, I can't find my way around here; doing the best I can:
    While typing in an rtfd new file, as I'm on the first line, the page starts creeping down until it's the very bottom line. When I get to the end of the line and it wraps, the page jumps up to about 5 or 6 lines and each few letters I type on the new line cause it to creep back down so it's the bottom line, until I get to the end of the next line, where I get a 5-6-line jump again, and then the creep again. This has to be one of the most annoying things ever, and makes me want to go get a different text editor. I use TextWrangler, but I've become used to TextEdit for quick things, and for a few specific things, but now I'm not loving it anymore.
    Help please?
