MAVERICK OS  Safari locks up and no scroll bar

The Safari thing I can sort of get around by using Firefox but the scroll bar and screen navigation is painful. The scroll bar disapears and does not reapear when using the touch pad to move the cursor. This happens in all screens. the up down arrows work but you have to use touch pad to select where on screen you want to scroll. There has got to be a better way or some setting that I am missing because I cant imagine that apple would think this current process is better.

Problem:
Mavericks 10.9 set the default to "Automatically based on mouse or trackpad"
Solution:
System Preferences, General
Next to "Show Scrol Bar", click "Always"

  • Safari locks up and quickly crashes soon after starting up

    Safari locks up and quickly crashes soon after starting up the program. The hard drive sounds like it is going in to some kind of loop? Here is the error report. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

  • Issue with Multithreading and vertical scroll bar - help needed to debug!!!

    I have been working on a desktop Visual Studio 2010 application for quite a few years. It is written in C++ and MFC. This code is a combination of code I have written and code I inherited. It worked great for years on Windows XP, but when I ported
    it to Windows 7, a tricky problem has come up that I am having the darnest time trying to figure out
    In summary, it is a single .exe desktop application. There is the main thread (thread A), which launches another thread (thread B). Both threads share a pointer to a single window object which displays events. This window also implements a vertical and horizontal
    scroll bar. 
    The interaction and message processing between the threads seems a little sticky to me. Both threads A and B call the same member function of the CWnd object. BUT, Thread B ALSO posts messages to thread A's queue.
    So, in thread B, you will see code like this, which makes a direct call to the output window object, AND THEN it also posts a message to Thread A's mainframe window like this...
    if( m_pEventLog )
    pOutputWindow->AddLine("Some test...");
    if( m_phNotifyWnd[RECEIVE] && m_puiEventWMsg[RECEIVE] ) {
    ::PostMessage( m_phNotifyWnd[RECEIVE], m_puiEventWMsg[RECEIVE], 0, (LPARAM) pPkt );
    WHEN thread A receives the message that thread B posted above, it only does the following:
    LRESULT CMainFrame::OnSocketReceive( WPARAM, LPARAM lParam )
    CSPkt* pPkt;
    CRWPkt* pRWPkt;
    CSPktSocket* pSocket;
    ULONG ulType;
    CString csTemp;
    CBSWords bsWords;
    CSSSWords sssWords;
    CRWPkt* pLoopBackRWMsg; // used if we have to send a loopback msg back to sender
    CLMsg lmsg;
    m_wndTextWindow.AddLine("Test message");
    return 0;
    So both threads are writing to the output window via the .AddLine() member function.
    void COutputWnd::AddLine( CString& strLine, COLORREF crColor )
    UpdateVScroll();
    return;
    And this function then makes a call to :UpdateVScroll().  The problem seems to arise because thread B does a
    post to thread A, where thread A in turn writes to the output window. Eventually, the program
    HANGS in the call to
    SetScrollInfo() below...
    void COutputWnd::UpdateVScroll()
    CSingleLock lock( &m_CSVertScrollLock ); // lock things up while we are in here
    BOOL bok = lock.Lock();
    if (lock.IsLocked() == TRUE)
    int iMax = m_FifoIndices.GetHighestIndex();
    if( iMax < ( m_iMaxViewableLines - 1 ) )
    iMax = 0;
    //SetScrollRange( SB_VERT, 0, iMax, FALSE );
    //SetScrollRange( SB_VERT, 0, 9, FALSE );
    SCROLLINFO scrollinfo;
    scrollinfo.cbSize = sizeof(SCROLLINFO);
    scrollinfo.fMask = SIF_RANGE;
    scrollinfo.nMin=0;
    scrollinfo.nMax= iMax;
    SetScrollInfo(SB_VERT, &scrollinfo, FALSE);
    lock.Unlock();
    It doesn't take long for the program to hang...maybe about 10 seconds. 
    When I hit DEBUG->BREAK ALL, I get the output below in the CALL STACK WINDOW.

    NOTE: If I never make the call to SetScrollInfo(), the program never HANGS.
    Sooo....I am trying to determine if there is a fundamental issue with the way the threads are communicating that is causing the issue, or if maybe I have a memory overwrite. It always hangs in ::SetScrollInfo(), no matter what I comment and uncomment. This
    makes me think that scroll bat behavior is different in Windows 7 than on XP, but I have not been able to find any documentation about it. 
    Can anyone provide any insight as to what may be the cause of the program hanging>

    It might look like working but it will crash eventually. The windows are thread affine and other thread must never touch other threads windows. Sometimes you might get along but usually it just crashes.
    Thread B must use PostMessage ( or SendMessage if suncronous action is require) to thread A's windows to achieve correct updating. Some very basic calls are implemented directly with SendMessage so they are safe to use but then you must individually check
    which ones are safe.
    Also having multiple SendMessage calls from B to A require rendezvous which might cause other problems ( thread B stalls or program deadlocks, depending on other program structure).
    So PostMessage is the way to do it ( or create yourself another inter-thread mechanism, possible but usually too much troble)

  • Add bookmark button and horizontal scroll bar - bugs on Snow Leopard

    Safari after update to 5.1.4, has a bug in interface on Snow Leopard (10.6.8): 'add bookmark' button (combined with addres bar), and horizontal scroll bar didn't look good.  I think, that shouldn't happend on flagship Apple browser, on just a little older OS X than 'Lion'.
    Clearing (deleting files) 'Cache.db' and .plist files didn't help.

    Ok..  maybe corrupted Safari preferences  (.plist )
    Quit Safari.
    Go to ~/Library/Preferences
    Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
    Relaunch Safari. If that helped, move the .plist file to the Trash.
    If not, move it back to the Preferences folder.
    If that didn't help, go to Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. If you have any installed, turn that OFF, quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    If it's not a plugin, try troubleshooting Safari third party unsupported add ons >  Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues

    i just upgraded from snow leopard v10.6.8 to os x mountain lion and my scroll bar has disappeared on all my applications on the internet. does anyone know a patch to get the scroll bar to work.

    Open General preferences in System Preferences. You can set the desired scrollbar behavior there.

  • Is there a way to hide the horizontal and vertical scroll bar?

    Hi,
    I have report with customized page height and width and I am displaying it in the windows forms.
    When I am resizing the form wherein the crviewer is dock in, the horizontal and vertical scroll bars appears.
    Is there a way for me to suppress the those scrollbars?
    Thanks in advance.

    Couple of ways I've been able to find info about. E.g.; there is not straight API off os the viewer (CRviewer.ScrollBar = False ).
    1)  Add Panel control onto the page and add report viewer control into a Panel. Set Scrollbar, width, height property of Panel control.
    2) See http://www.dotnetspider.com/forum/266932-Remove-Scrollbar-from-Crystal-report-Viewer.aspx for another idea.
    If either of the above works for you, please let us know as I have not tested this yet.

  • InDesign cs6 bottom and side scroll bars won't work

  • Frozen screen w/ apple icon and empty scroll bar

    i have a frozen screen w/ apple icon and empty scroll bar on my iPhone 3GS. reset? if so and follow instructions under restart iPhone, will i loose photos,etc when i reset? help!

    I don't know if by "scroll bar" you mean when you press the power button down it doesn't offer a shut down option...
    Anyway
    Try holding the power button until the "slide to power off" comes up. Don't slide it. Hold down the home button for about 5 seconds. It will force quit and hopefully work again. Hope it helps

  • Updated Mavericks to 10.9.3 and now scrolling doesn't work in Firefox.

    I updated yesterday, and now the scroll wheel on my mouse (Belkin optical mouse) does not work in Firefox. It works everywhere else, just not in Firefox.

    Can you scroll with the keyboard?
    On Mac the scroll bars can be hidden and only have them show when you scroll the page so you can see the current scroll position.
    The idea is that a touch pad is used that doesn't require the scroll bars to be visible and thus have more screen estate for the browsing area.
    You can make the scroll bars always visible:
    *System Preferences > General > Show Scroll Bar > Choose "Always"
    Note that on Mac you can toggle full screen mode with Command+Shift+F.

  • Gray snow, hides left top dots and blurs scroll bars, how can I repair this?

    After I cleaned up my macbookair, by throwing away some unused software, the fill out fields and the red, yellow and green dots and scroll bar all turned into gray snow. Still works but I need to guess where the dot's are in the gray snow.
    See this screenshot.
    Anybody, can you tell me how to repair this? Re starting doen not help. closing and opening also does not work.
    I am not sure if I have mountain lion, or so, at least I can't find where it should be.
    I only have my macbook air two months now.
    I did find information after clicking the apple in left upper corner that I use OS X 10.8.2

    I Just re-installed itunes, and there the problem is gone.
    But can I re-install Finder, Safari and App store? 
    How, and how do I know what version I need?
    Does de Apple site provide these downloads?

  • How do I view the Horizontal Scrolling bar and status bar at the bottom of the screen. I can only see the top menus, toolbars and vertical scroll bar?

    Before the most recent upgrade, the bottom horizontal scrolling bar and status bar appeared on my screen. Now since upgrading, I cannot see the. Anyone ideas how to restore them?

    If you haven't already, you could force-quit Quicktime by using the menu option from the desktop (finder) and choose Quicktime.
    Not sure what you have frozen on the screen, be it a failed movie, or some unusual screen shot. If you can find by date (created) you may be able to look for .mov or quicktime suffix name or other video file content to delete it.
    And you may have to restart your computer and perhaps run repair disk permissions from Disk Utility's first aid on the hard disk drive in your computer.
    Not sure if all that would help now, but it is something a few days late...!
    Good luck & happy computing!
