I can't seem to find any information on how to troubleshoot why I can't scroll down with my optical mouse. It works fine otherwise.

My mouse works fine except it just started not letting me scroll down.  I can't find anything on how to clean it.  I tried unplugging the mouse from the keyboard then the keyboard from its USB port and there was no change.

If it's the Mighty Mouse with the scroll ball on top then the problem is usually debris logged under the ball.
Turn the mouse over and rub briskly with a microfiber cloth.  It should clear it.
Regards,
Captfred

  • HT1338 I'm trying to download mountain lion, I've got an icon in the dock saying "OSX Mountain Lion waiting..." What is it waiting for? I can't seem to find any context menu or information.

    'm trying to download mountain lion, I've got an icon in the dock saying "OSX Mountain Lion waiting..." What is it waiting for? I can't seem to find any context menu or information.

    I got it to download by going to the App Store, Purchases, and download.
    This was after a false start thanks to Apple Help (total misnomer) which sent me to iTunes.
    It is an amazingly slow download, so pack a lunch.
    Thanks everyone.

  • I can't seem to find any books to purchase on Adobe Media Server 5 or even tutorials.

    I can't seem to find any books to purchase on Adobe Media Server 5 or even tutorials, is there a reason for this? Is AMS gone by the wayside?

    I can't find my photos that I've just downloaded.
    Look in Last Import
      I can't find my photo information (i.e. shutter speed, aperture, etc).
    Click on the circled "i" in edit mode
    There is no histogram.  I can only find about 3 sliders to adjust color, tint, etc.
    In edit mode click on "adjust" then "add" and check the options you want to see
    The crop function is difficult to use.
    Ok - that is a personal opinion - I like it better
    I cannot geotag my photos any longer.
    That is correct - hopefully it will be added with an update - for now you have to do it prior to Import - HoudahGeo hopes to be able to do it directly to the Photos library later also and is a good solution for Geotagging
    Right now, I feel like I'm being forced to use Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom to get the tools I need to edit my photos.
    Forced? Someone is there with a gun? You are not being Forced to do anything - you can do what ever you want including continue to use iPhoto - or even post invalid winning complains instead of acting to resolve your concerns - your choice - do what you want

    How do I change a default from feathered edge to sharp edge when I select a path?
    I'm working in Photoshop CS6 on a Mac and am having trouble when I select a Path it automatically feathers the selection border. I can't seem to find any place to adjust a feather setting. Does anyone have a suggestion? I'm using paths to silhouette an image on a photograph to use in another document and I need a hard edge on it, not a feathered one.

    In the Paths panel, click the flyout menu (in the top right of the panel) and choose Make Selection (this option will only be available if you have a path selected). Reduce the Feather Radius to 0 (zero) and click OK. This setting will be the default even when clicking the Load Path as Selection button.

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    If that doesn't help I and the problem persists I would have a technician take a look at your iPad. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • I need help and I can't seem to find any.

    Okay here's what I did...
    I got a new Mac Mini from my parents for Christmas, but before my dad could hook it up, I used my brothers computer to put music on my iPod Nano, they use windows though. So now that my computer is hooked up I can't seem to reset my iPod in any way so that I can use my computer to put music and everything on it...I think I have tried everything and I really don't know what else to do. If anyone knows what I can do to help my situation that would be great!!!

    Are you trying to use a PC formatted iPod on a Mac? See below:
    Can I use a Mac-formatted iPod on a PC or vice versa?
    Converting a Mac-formatted iPod into a Windows-formatted iPod or vice versa requires the iPod to be "restored", and doing so will erase the hard drive. Be very certain that any music and data files are safely backed up before attempting to convert an iPod from one platform to another.
    From Apple's own iPod FAQ, "You can convert an iPod formatted for Windows into an iPod for Mac by using the iPod for Mac Software Updater on the Apple website. Note that once it is reformatted, it will only work with Macs. You need Mac OS 9.2 or Mac OS X 10.1 or later to reformat an iPod for Windows into an iPod for Mac."
    You can also convert an iPod formatted for the Mac into an iPod formatted for Windows by connecting the Mac-formatted iPod to a Windows PC, running the Windows iPod Updater Software and clicking "restore". It is also worth noting that Apple provides no support for an iPod that has been reformatted for a platform other than the one originally intended.

  • I can't seem to find any of my screenshots from my iPod touch on my PC

    This works fine on my computer that I sync my iPod with, but on another PC I can't find my screenshots. I checked my iPod, and I have my screenshots in the saved photos folder, but when I plug it into the PC it says "0 Items" in the DCIM storage. Any suggestions on a fix?
    I'm currently using a 3rd gen (or rather, 2nd gen) 8GB iPod Touch.

    it's a 3rd generation 8GB iPod Touch, but it's pretty much a 2nd gen because there's pretty much nothing changed from the previous.
    No, if it's 8GB, then it's either 2nd gen or, if it has two cameras, 4th generation.
    There is no such thing as an 8Gb 2nd gen Touch.

  • Can´t seem to install any update on Snow Leopard. Why?

    Hello everyone. First post here.
    I tried searching the forum but I couldn´t seem to find someone with the exact same problem as me.
    Yesterday I bought Snow Leopard and tried installing it on my 13" Macbook Pro. Everything went fine and it´s running ok, except from the fact that I can´t update it. Software update will ask me to install pack 10.6.2 but I click install and it doesn´t run.
    I´ve tried downloading the 10.6.1 from apple.com and installing it but the same thing seems to happen. It doesn´t run. I´ve tried everything, including repairing disk permissions... It won´t install.
    Does anyone have a clue of what I should do?
    Thank you.

    Hi!
    I had the same problem with updating to 10.6.2 from Snow Leopard (brazilian custom language/keyboard). But instead of removing the file, I just changed to english setting, installed the update OK and returned to pt-br setting. Everything fine.
    Best regards!

  • My Windows phone 8.1 can't seem to find any certificates, needed for VPN

    Hello,
    I set up an IKEv2 VPN at home so I could use it on my desktop as well as on my Windows phone.
    Now, I have two options which are supported by the VPN: 1) I can use username/password, but then I have to install the root certificate. 2) Use the client certificate.
    Now I've tried both but none seem to work. When I use username/password I get error 13801, which apparantly means that it can't find the root certificate. When I try to set up the VPN using the client certificate, I can't set it up because when I want to
    choose a certificate, it says there aren't any.
    I have installed both (several times by now) using the PFX and PF12 formats. I've tried regenerating them. None of this helps.
    My phone won't accept any crt or pem files so that's not gonna work either.
    I've tried restarting the phone, that didn't help either.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Okay, I didn't get it to work with user/password authentication, but I did manage to use a client certificate.
    What I had to do was regenerate the certificate with Extended Key Usage: ClientAuth.
    Now, I'm facing a new issue because the server isn't accepting me for some reason, which apparantly has something to do with authentication or encryption. I haven't figured that out yet so I'll have a look at the server software instead.
    But if anyone knows what kind of thing Windows phone could be asking for that Windows desktop doesn't, that could be useful.
