I can't scroll up or down with the mouse wheel

My mouse wheel won't scroll in Firefox, but it works for every other program (including IE, don't make me go back to that!). I have downloaded the latest driver for my mouse and also tried changing the config in "mousewheel.withnokey". I never had this problem then suddenly it just happened, but only in Firefox. Any ideas?

== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== randomly

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.

HT1343 I can't scroll up or down with the mouse until I hit the up or down key

Please help with issue. It's the Mac mini 2012. I am new to Mac and it's driving me nuts

Do this. Go to Apple Menu / System Preferences / Bluetooth. In the pane that comes up next, check the box on the bottom left "Show Bluetooth in menu bar". Close the pane.
Now click (on the top of the screen to the right) the Bluetooth symbol. In the drop down move the cursor to Bluetooth Mouse. You will see two choices. Select Open Mouse Preferences.
In this pane you can change the way the mouse behaves. Set it up for your convenience. You can go experiment with the settings until you are happy with what you have. All you need to do is to go to the Bluetooth symbol in the menu bar to get the to the settings.

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?

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.

Scroll down with the mouse while the crop tool window is open

I would like to know if there is a way to scroll down with the mouse while the crop tool window is open, like in Acrobat 5.0. If not with the mouse, is there another shortcut to go through the pages and adjust the size of the crop and see it on different pages? Thanks!

Yes, but I won't see what I'm cropping if I cannot scroll down while the window is open. Thank you for answering anyway!

I can't scroll left to right using my mouse wheel. any suggestions?

I can't scroll left to right using my mouse wheel. any suggestions?

It is possible in InDesign CS6, and frankly I would prefer it to the panning which I have used and is just not quite as convenient for what i am doing. I am scrolling through multiple pages not within a single page. it would just be nice to have the same functions in an "upgraded" version.

Moving sliders in CS6 with the mouse wheel?

In CS3 after clicking onto the slider "triangle" I can then adjust it with the mouse wheel. I don't appear to be able to do this in CS6. Can this be remedied?

LOL!!!
JJ got my points in another thread today, too.

How do I prevent tab focus from changing when I scroll tabs with the mouse wheel? [SOLVED]

Whenever I scroll my tabs with the mouse scroll wheel the tab focus changes from the page I'm currently on to the tab being scrolled to. I usually have a large list of tabs open and I depend on being able to scroll tabs without changing page focus to keep myself organized.
Also, I'd like to disable tab scroll wrapping; Once I've scrolled my tabs to the end I'd like it to stop scrolling, not wrap around to the start of my tabs.
Is there a way to disable these features and revert to the tab scrolling behaviour of a previous version of Firefox?

This is not a standard feature and can be caused by an extension.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

How to smooth scroll a Spark List using the mouse wheel

I've got my Spark List smooth scrolling nicely if I grab the scrollbar thumb and drag it. But when using the mouse wheel, it's jumping itemrenderer by itemrenderer.
Is there any way to get this to smooth scroll? I'm using a List with variableRowHeight = true.
Thanks.

This thread demonstrates how to customize mouse wheel scrolling:

An enhancement was recently added that will allow for customizing the behavior without needing to subclass. See this bug for the details:

Do precise sliders adjustments with the mouse wheel

I would like to be allowed to use the mouse wheel to move sliders in small increments/decrements. E.g. 1 by 1 for Recovery and Blacks and 100 by 100 for Temp in Develop module. To be also fast, I should just need to hover with the mouse over the slider, and then use the wheel (with no need to click). Leaving the mouse to use two hands and hit Alt+arrows just doesn't cut it.

Nicolas,
if you have to do a click at first to give them the focus, then you have to do a de-click afterwards as well or at least hit the enter key. Otherwise following shortcuts will be eventually misinterpreted because the focus still remains on the slider.

PDF opens fine, but when I try to page down or scroll down with the mouse, it hangs the file

Pdf files open fine in Acrobat 9 pro. I am having problems in page down or scroll down on the document. Only way to close the file is to go to task manager and end the program. In task manager it shows that there are 2 adobe acrobat files opened and not responding. What can I check or do about it? I have tried to disable all plug-ins, but that didn't help.

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
* [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]

* [http://www.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro/ Hitman Pro]
* [http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ESET Online Scanner]
[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

I am unable to scroll up and down with my mouse when using email.

When I load email, most of the time I am unable to scroll with my Magic1 button mouse. I can scroll just fine in any other application. I am using an iMac OSX 10.9. If I load any other program, I can scroll just fine.

First, try logging in as another user and see if the problem persists. The Guest user would be sufficient.
If it doesn't happen in another account, we can dig into yours to try to figure out what is causing it.
Second (if it fails in other account), boot into Safe Mode and see if it still occurs. Safe Mode disables third-party startup items which may be causing the problem. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455
If it doesn't happen in Safe Mode, then we can look at what is running in the background and guess at what might be causing that behavior.
Note that sometimes problems like this can be resolved by logging out and back in or by a restart.

After installing FF4 scrolling up and down with the touch-pad doesn't work on my Acer Aspire anymore.

Neither does it work to browse forwards or backwards with the double gesture. Zooming in and out works fine though.
Everything still works in IE8 and in Google Chrome.
The touch-pad uses an ALPS-driver.

Thanks, I don't have the file tp4table.dat on my computer. Currently I've reversed to 3.6 and will run it as long as it works. Really don't like 4.0 anyway... May be forced to use IE again if I don´t find anything better. Tried Chrome and worked well at first but now back and forth doesn't work there either and that's so annoying.

Scrolling with the mouse wheel does not always work with 4.0? Never a problem with previsous versions.

in firefox 4.0, at times the scrolling wheel will not work. It has never been a problem with previous versions, and always works in internet explorer.

Hello Henry,
Thanks for the hint!
My mouse wheel is working, but not in flash player...strange... It is a Microsoft Comfort Mouse and I see there is already logged bug about that: https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-5145
Anyway besides this bug, there is an additional issue I think, that the vertical layout does not calculate properly the vertical scroll position, when certain elements are excluded from the layout. I have described this additionally in the Jira.
Regards,
Dinko
