How Do I Disable/Change Settings on My Scroll Wheel?

I just downloaded Google SketchUp (a free drafting program) and I constantly need to "grip" the page to rotate and pan along my objects. This is done by clicking in on the scroll wheel and moving the mouse. On my Mac though (as opposed to the PCs at school) it pops up the dashboard screen every time I try this. So my question: How do I disable/change the default settings on my scroll wheel so I can use this program efficiently?
-I never use the dashboard and can click the little icon if I need to, so keeping shortcut to that isn't an issue, I just want my scroll wheel back!

I am either in the wrong location or have a different layout than you.
Apple button > system preferences > keyboard and mouse > mouse tab > then all I have are the options to change the tracking speed, scrolling speed, double-click speed, and which button is required to zoom with the scroll wheel. The only drop-down menu I have on this screen is to select which button + scroll wheel allows me to zoom.
I am using version 10.5.6. Am I in the incorrect section of this forum?

  • How do i disable "change password" in "security & privacy"

    Hi... i think something might be wrong... I have a standard account (for a child) that is locked down by parental controls by an admin user. I've locked changing the password - "Disable changing the password"... The lock icon is locked for users and groups in the standard account - so that works.
    However if i goto System Preferences/Security & Privacy/General/Change Password it allows for changing of the standard account password and does not require the admin password.
    Really? Can anybody else confirm this? How do I lock this also?
    thanks in advance.

    This isn't an answer.
    You aren't the only one seeing this behavior. If you monitor the "More Like This" box (top right), other threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads.
    You might want to submit feedback to Apple so they are aware of the problem:

  • How to make the scrollbar function with mouse scroll wheel?

    Is there a way how to make my content scroll even with the mouse scroll wheel?... I have to edit the coding??

    Hey!
    You shouldn't have to edit any code.
    There is an active player bug surrounding this issue however, which causes the following:
    1) It should work on windows.
    2) It may not work on Mac.
    We're continuing to pursue this issue, we know it's important to our users.
    Thanks,

  • How to go about changing settings based upon logged in user

    Hi all,
    I'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts on how one would go about changing a property on a node based upon the logged in user.
    For example, say you have a path property at /apps/myComponent/settings.path=/content/dam/genericfolder that for an author have the value of /apps/myComponent/settings.path=/content/dam/sandbox, and for an approver have the value of /apps/myComponent/settings.path=/content/dam/approvalsandbox

    Hi Ove,
    Thanks for the tip on the user role. I had thought about taking that approach, however, leveraging the user role and properties associated with it would be the correct approach if writing custom components. What I am looking for is a way to take existing components, and essentially use them in context of the user.
    For example, say if you are trying to give a sub group of users access to a subset of the DAM directory, and you don't particularly wish to hack around the existing WCM DAM component, there is a setting in the tree navigator (/libs/wcm/core/content/damadmin/treeRoot) that lets you specify where the root of the tree is. (There are more settings to work with, but this is just one used to illustrate.)
    If you can change the property based upon the user, that gives you the functionality without altering code.
    I would like to know if this is possible, if this is an inherently bad practice, if so why, and whether there may be another alternative out there which lets you avoid having to alter the code of an existing component.
    Thanks again for answering.

  • How do I disable security settings on PDF fillable form?

    The PDF fillable form was made in Word and saved as a PDF. I tried copying it then bringing into Acrobat Pro X to make it a fillable form. Saved with Enabled Features but when opened into Reader I get a security warning restricting adding text or placing a signature. I've tried changing setting and can't figure out what is wrong or even if it's possible it fix this.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Kwiley

    It is "The security settings on this document prevent adding text and /or placing a signature on it from Adobe Reader. To fill and sign this document you need to print it out."  These forms need to be fillable because they change and then my client places her signature or her bosses signature on the page.  Is there another way to do this?
    Thanks,
    Kathy

  • How can I disable/change the keystroke for accessing "Quick Find"?

    Using / , ' or " brings up the "Quick Find" menu, but this interferes with normal usage of the keyboard. I would like to either disable or change the default keystroke to bring up "Quick Find" so that I can type normally.

  • I have a used 4 or 4s, I am not sure but the phone shuts down at any time. I do not have any idea on how to reset or change settings. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    I think I just need a hard reboot to clean out all the junk on this phone. Without any manuals or any real useful info online from apple on older phones this is my only real outlet.

    Try to set it back to factory settings, explained in this article:

  • How do you disable text cursor movement when scrolling horizontally with a tilt wheel or touchpad; or rather, how do you make these horizontal scrolling actions only scroll horizontally and nothing else?

    Frequently when I use a touchpad or tilt wheel mouse to scroll horizontally, the web page does not scroll at all. Instead, the text cursor moves left or right. If the text box is off-screen, the page will jump to it, losing the spot on the page I was reading. This happens way too often given the sensitivity of touchpads and tilt wheel mice.
    I'd like to just disable the cursor movement function of the horizontal scroll. I don't feel that it is useful and it actually hurts my web browsing experience. I do not want to disable horizontal scrolling though; I just want it to always scroll horizontally and do nothing else.

    You would make this a little easier if you posted a link to the page.
    Most of the jump seems to be some extra padding or margin between the tabs  when you rollover, but I am not able to find it.  Is there any other css that is governing this page? I did remove a couple of <p></p> set of tags you had  and it improved the jump, but it is still there.
    If the page is live, run it through the validator http://validator.w3.org/ , fix whatever errors it finds, if you still have the jump, post a link to the page and the issue might get found.

  • How can I disable right/left mouse buttons and scroll wheel in PDF?

    Hi all,
    I want the user to have to click on "forward" and "back" buttons that I've created in the PDF, in order to move around in it. Is there any way to disable the mouse buttons and scroll wheel from allowing users to go back and forth?
    Also, a separate question: I want the user to click on embedded images and receive either a pop-up comment, or be re-directed to another page in the PDF. Is there any way to set this up?
    Thanks for your time!

    You can achieve what you want in Question 1, just not via scripting.  You would need to create a plug-in in C/C++ that would be installed on the client machine.  Other than that option, try67 is correct - there is no way to achieve this from the document-level.

  • Change scroll wheel function?

    Is it possible to change the what the scroll wheel does?
    At the moment the scroll wheel zooms in and out horizontally in waveform mode.  That's great.  Then when I switch to multitrack, the scroll wheel switches to vertical zooming.  That seems counter intuitive to me.
    Is there an option to change the scroll wheel function so that I can zoom in and out horizontally (timewise) on both waveform editor and in multitrack mode?
    Would be so good....  Thank you!

    In Multitrack view, the behavior depends on where the mouse cursor is placed.  If you use the scroll wheel while the cursor is over the track panel controls, then it will resize thet rack height.  If scrolling while over the tracks and clips themselves, it scrolls.  Similar behaviors occur when scrolling while hovering over the navigation bar or ruler bars in the interface.

  • In Lion 10.7.x I cannot disable the Lock documents for 2 weeks in Time Machine! Thus it prevents to change anything else like the system preferences or other settings. How I can disable it?

    Hello, In Lion 10.7.x I cannot disable the Lock documents for 2 weeks in Time Machine! Thus it prevents to change anything else like the system preferences or other settings. All is locked. How I can disable it?

    Do you mean the check box isn't enabled?
    Or you remove the check but it doesn't "stick"?
    Or you remove the box but documents are stil getting locked?
    That setting doesn't apply to other things in System Preferences, just apps that support AutoSave and Versions.  If you're having a problem with System Prefs, please clarify exactly what.

  • Can anyone advise me how I can disable Connection Logging in Mac mail please it seems to have been added when I changed my internet settings thanks very much

    Can anybody advise me how I can disable "Connection Logging which has set itself up in Mail, when the settings were changed for internet connection I am running OSX mavericks  10.9.3 thanks very much

    I certainaly did not turn connection logging on but the effect was disastrous.  Mail would not respond as long as there was a slow connection. I figured this out through turning off all network connections and watching Mail spring back to life and let me search my messages.
    Normally if a connection is slow to respond, mail just lets the slow connection do it's thing while everything else operates largely unhindered.With connection logging turned on, your Mail app is a slave to the slowest connection to a mail server (I have 8 total)
    I had to crash mail over and over again to do a simple search of my messages until I happen to notice that this connection logging was turned on.  I found this thread, turned it off, now Mail works as well as it ever has (very buggy but usable)
    How dare Apple do that behind my back!?  After all the problems there are Mail, they have the gall to turn on logging and reduce Mail to unusable?
    I also deleted all the logs for a good house keeping seal of approvable.  They were here:
    Some day Apple might consider hiring a test team... instead of relying on all the users.

    I have the new iOS 7 and am getting texts from another family members phone and they are getting mine how do I disable this without changing accounts

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You could simply set each device to only use a single telephone number (settings > messages > send & receive, but this isn't really an ideal solution since the other person can always change their settings and see your messages and send messages that appear as if they are from you. There is only one real solution and that's to have your own accounts.
