Mavericks and Firefox scrolling

I've updated to Mavericks and just tonight, I went to Firefox 25.  Since then, the trackpad scrolling has failed.  I can use one finger to move the cursor about, and the scrolling works with one finger holding the cursor on the scroll bar and the thumb holding the trackpad down to activate the scrolling, but I can't the scrolling and one page back/forth two-finger controls to work.

My Magic Mouse and my track pad BOTH were reset with EVERYTHING unchecked after the upgrade. I went into System Preferences and had to recheck it ALL. My Trackpad is Logitech so it has its own preferecne pane, but it was all unchecked just the same.

  • Mac running Mavericks Crashes Firefox Daily. EXC_BAD_ACCESS / KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE Please help.

    Hi,
    I have a Mac running Mavericks and Firefox keeps crashing most daily for the past three months and I get a "Firefox has crashed submit report" popup.
    It is usually if I am playing a youtube video or a movie (more then one) at a time. Or if one video is loading and I try to play or load another. I notice if I "que" or pre-load a long video (more then 15 minutes), then try to play a new one it will crash.
    I have tried the following solutions none of which have worked:
    A) Uninstalling and reinstalling firefox
    B) Reset Firefox (Help, troubleshooting information, reset firefox)
    C) Turn off hardware acceleration (Firefox, preferences, un-check hardware acceleration)
    D) Turn off "enable hardware acceleration in "youtube" (it now asks me each time if I would allow it to play)
    E) Plugin Check and Updates are all up to date (http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/) I only have:
    SharePoint Browser Plug-in (research)
    Default Browser Helper (research)
    These plugins are up to date: (as of March 7th 2014)
    Shockwave for Director 12.0.6 (Up to Date)
    Shockwave Flash 12.0.0.70 (Up to Date)
    QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.3 (Up to Date)
    Sometimes I get this as the "signature": libsystem_platform.dylib@0x4280
    Again I have tried the above solutions but they have not worked. Any help or advice will be appreciated.
    Thank you
    Shawn

  • I downloaded Mavericks and now when I google a topic and select I then cannot scroll back to the original google page?

    I downloaded Mavericks and now when I google a topic and select one, I then cannot scroll back to the original google page if I wish to try a different answer?

    Sorry, I'm not very good at describing the problem.   If I had multiple browser pages open, prior to downloading Maverick I could swipe the mouse to go back or forward as required.   Now if I google a subject and the page comes up with all the choices and I pick one, I now cannot swipe back to the first page , I have to re-open google each time, type in my seach and start from scratch.  

  • Firefox 33.1.1 running on either Mavericks and Yosemite crashes (infinite beachball) about a minute after opening.

    Firefox 33.1.1 running on either Mavericks and Yosemite crashes (infinite beachball) about a minute after opening. On both systems I had installed the XMarks and LastPass add-ons. I noticed that when I disabled those add-ons, the crashing behavior stopped. Is there a known issue with those add-ons and the 33.1 version of Firefox?

    Does this also happen in Firefox beta? It is working for Yosemite for me on Beta channel.

  • Published website and the scroll bar is missing in Firefox

    I have published a website through iWeb and mobile.me. Everything looks pretty good in Safari, Internet Explorer, and Firefox. The problem I am having and cannot resolve is that the side scroll bar that allows you to scroll to the bottom of the page in Firefox is missing!
    Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how did you fix it?

    Please advice how to restore scroll functionality

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Safari and Firefox jumpy scrolling

    All of the sudden, wherever I am on any wireless or ethernet connection, neither Safari nor Firefox scrolls normally. It's jumpy and freezes a lot. This isn't a mechanical problem, because scrolling in other applications works as normal. It's become too annoying to be on line on this computer. Any suggestions?

    HI,
    Sometimes mine does that also, especially with Safari. Restarting your Mac usually takes care of the problem unless it's chronic.

    I just upgraded to OSX Mavericks and when i use the gestures on my magic track pad it responds oddly.  Sometimes it won't recognize when my simple gesture of scrolling through a document.

    Gestures is not working like it did before. The side to side, forward back swipe, is very picky. Sometimes it takes four or five tries before it works. And yes I know how to do it. I have had a magic trackpad for about one year. And was greatly pleased by how it worked, BEFORE Mavericks. It has has indeed changed.

  • All websites automatically going to Mobile versions when using safari and firefox (likely started after mavericks update) Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

  • Mac won't open pages in browsers. Chrome and Firefox won't open any pages - Safari will only open a selected few.

    I've had some strange browser issues, with Conduit being added to Chrome (which I've tried to remove via the browser settings). Chrome will open my Gmail account but no ther pages. Firefox won't open anything. Safari opens a few pages (this forum thankfully) but is very selective.
    Google is returning results to me via Google.es rather than Google.co.uk
    I can use all browsers freely on other devices on home network (although Google.es has popped up on my iPhone now). I've run anti-virus software which hasn't picked up any problems. I've tried uninstalling Chrome and Firefox, but am unable to do so.
    Any help or guidance would be really, really appreciated.
    I'm running the most recent version of Mavericks on  2012 iMac.

    Hi,
    First of all click Safari/Reset Safari, next click Safari/Preferences/Extensions and turn off extensions. The re-test
    If the problem persists, try using safari in safe mode:
    Use this link to see how to do this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
    If Safari works ok in safe mode, then your problem points to something 3rd party related.

  • Upgraded to Mavericks - and iCloud.   Calendar will not stop 'updating' - and has not synced all entries across all devices/calendars.

    Hello Apple Support Community;
    I am looking for some help on several matters related to my upgrade to OS X Mavericks this week.   THIS issue is one related to CALENDAR.
    I believe that I have done everything (as instructed) to install, activate, and sync contacts and calendars via iCloud - immediately following my upgrade to Mavericks earlier this week.   When I opened CALENDAR for the first time - from the Dock on my computer (not the iCloud calendar) - after upgrading to Mavericks and setting up iCloud - CALENDAR provided a pop-up notification stating "Moving calendars to server account..." with a moving "candy cane" progress bar.  
    This has been "updating" for about 12 hours, now.   And while open and "updating" - it will not allow ANY other commands, scrolling, or menu options.   Additionally, I am unable to close this calendar of the Mac, unless I 'Force Quit'.   I have, in fact, executed Force Quit, and restarted the Mac.   No change... it still "updates".  
    When I open the iCloud calendar - it opens and works (mostly).   There are events on my iPhone 5 that are not on the iCloud calendar.   And there are events on the iCloud calendar that are not on my iPhone.   I have created new calendar events on each calendar account (iCloud on my Mac and iPhone 5) - and they seem to automatically update each device.   There does not seem to be any obviously rationale for the inconsistency of the calendar (iCloud and iPhone).
    Can you offer ideas for possible solutions to:
    1)  the "permanently updating" calendar from the Dock on my Mac?
    2)  ensure that all events are properly synced across all calendar accounts (and devices)?
    THANK YOU!!

    Hello Phil... I got nothing from the Apple Communities.   May have been very hard to diagnose via my description - or hard to resolve given many possible solutions.  
    The perpetually updating scroll-bar-of-death continued for about a week.
    I DID (finally) get resolution from the Genius Bar in my local Apple Store.   They deleted all prior "local" calendar back-ups and content - as I had my Calendar up on iCloud - which essentially "reset" the calendar function... and then reloaded the calendar, and then pulled in my calendar data from iCloud.  
    They twisted and tweaked a few more things that I was not able to follow (sorry I cannot offer more assistance on these other things).
    They also reloaded Mavericks.  
    Everything seems to be working well now.
    Apple Community... any more guidance for Phil - and others???
    Good luck, Phil.

  • HOW can I FIX Mavericks and Safari 7.0 to allow Gmail to work?  Gmail has been FUBAR'd since downloading Mavericks today.  Finally found the brute-force logout site to just getr logged out; can't keep doing that.  Other features no longer work, either.

    Made big mistake of downloading Mavericks today.
    Been struggling with all the FUBARd messes it caused, ALL DAY.
    Google basic buttons don't work--can't log out or other basic functions.
    Website use is impaired.
    It took almost 3 hours to do a basic online order on one of them--at this rate, I'll be out of business soon, and it's seriously impairing Christmas preparations!
    Google Voice/Video are screwed up, had to RE-download their voice/video plugin all over again--again.
    Voice/video quality is REALLY poor.
    Lag times in so many things are bad.
    Thought this would download WITH the better writing/bookkeeping programs--NOT!
    Mac Maps is piddle compaired with GoogleMaps.
    The Email program on the desktop is REALLY hard to use, has few useful functions.  It's MAYbe good if one only has ONE email; using it with severeal various email accounts is a serious liability in many ways--like filing, sorting, marking, etc.; no clear way to move email files to an external drive to save, to unload the HD.
    HOW can Safari and Mavericks be fixed?
    IF not, HOW can I REMOVE Mavericks and get back to Mountain Lion--which was not too great, but certainly more functional than Mavericks!
    I NEED my web-based emails to work--NOW...NOT when Mac finally gets around to fixing things sometime later.
    I NEED online ordering to work--NOW--not later when Mac finally gets around to fixing things.
    PLEASE someone--any help out there?  I couldn't even find but a rare hint that Safari 7.0 even exists--much less that anyone admits it's got problems, nor fixes for it.
    What to do?  Throw the whole unit out? Wipe and reboot?  Dumb it back to OS 10? HOW? WHAT?
    [freaking out here...]

    Zak Adelman, LexSchellings,
    It's a shiney new computer.  Came loaded with Mountain Lion.
    Too busy learning to use the blessed thing, to download anything....except...
    The only pluggin that had to be loaded, was Google Voice-Video pluggin, while Lion was still it's OS.  [AND been using the Safari that came already in it.]   Had to do that a couple times--nothing new there--that plug-in had to be re-loaded when using a PC, too--THAT happened even before Google slammed everyone into coerced use of it's Google+. 
        [I understood from others, that Firefox won't work in Mac units--or I woulda put that in it to see if that solved anything]
    This unit seemed a bit sluggish from the git-go, out-of-the-box. 
    I figured that was probly the local DSL here---rural DSL is...um...our DSL's not something to brag about, but it's the best we can do...
    The difference between speed of loading pages, etc. on the new Mac, was --not-- toooo terribly different--though yes, slower on Mac....and chalked it up to my inexperience with Mac. 
    Been trying to get things up and running for a bit over a month now.
    NOT doing very well at it--just barely getting by; rapidly falling behind what needs done [work]. 
    Google worked just --OK-- when OS was Lion, as did the Google voice/video--slower, and voice-video was kinda scratchy or glitchy, but worked enough to --get by--.
    Loading Mavericks, ruined that.  
    VOIP calls via Google talk have bad echio, static, cut-outs; video calling was pixilated or not working; WAS cued to re-load it's Voice-Video plug-in....which seemed to help a bit, though not very well; it only helped the Voice-Video some, not all--figured that was probably Google issues, less than Mac's, since Google has been increasingly dysfunctional as they have twisted it to be a social media-dominant thing.
    [[now seeking an email venue that does what Gmail was good at, including the Voice-video calling, that has no intention of turning itself inside out to be "social"]]
    Can't sign out of Gmail or Google+, nor use buttons in upper right corner with the drop-down menu.  
    NO buttons in upper right corner cluster on Gmail work, except the name+ button to toggle over to Google+---which I don't need! [yeah--THAT's a Google problem!] 
    Can only switch to HTML version by catching that button as the account signs in--if one fails to be fast enough with their fingers, it goes to Google+; can't get to email unless type in mail.google.com.
    Managed to catch that button today, and clicked to use HTML "permanently" until these issues get solved.
    ALSO:
    Have fairly new [about 1 year?] HP bluetooth printer-scanner. 
    BUT, after Mavericks loaded: it HAS the unit listed, HAS drivers for it, HP unit IS listed as default printer, everything --seems-- "go",
    .....except Mac keeps posting it's out of ink, and/or, not hooked up, and/or not turned on--even when it is on.
    It's SUPPOSED to be blue-toothing that printer/scanner.   
    It did it for Lion, before loading Mavericks, even though it was troublesome to get it to work, it at least HAD printed one document when Lion was the OS.  
    Thank you...Downloaded EtreCheck: 
    BTW:  Trying to copy/paste data from that check list, to this post, was achaic: 
    had to use Edit, select all, then use edit again to get it pasted--the mouse buttons weren't allowed to copy-paste using right-click functions [is this a relic limited-function "thing" with Mac?, or is it because I wanted to keep using this new wirless, non-Mac mouse?].
    Advice?

  • How can I make Safari and Firefox remember a password?

    I changed some of my website passwords recently.  In most cases, Safari and Firefox asked me if I wanted them to remember the new password, I said Yes (I'm not on a shared computer), and when I entered my email address or username, it would appear in one of those automatic boxes and bring up the correct password.  However, on some websites (not all), when the remembered email address or username shows up, if I click on it I still get the old password.  I've re-entered the correct password repeatedly but still have a problem:  either (1) the search engine remembers and shows the email address or username but doesn't provide the correct password, so I have to delete the old one and type in the new one every time (Firefox 32.0.3 for Mac, the latest version) ; or (2) the search engine doesn't remember the email address/username even though it's asked if it should remember the new password (Safari 5.1.10), and I have to type in both.
    I've searched the problem the Apple website and Firefox website but have come up empty (maybe I don't have the right search terms). Would be grateful for any help out there--entering the information every time is starting to get old....

    Hi Turtlewiz,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I believe in your situation, the instructions and information in the following article would be most helpful. The iCloud Keychain preferences can be changed for Safari.
    Frequently asked questions about iCloud Keychain
    How does iCloud Keychain handle websites that don't allow Safari AutoFill?
    You can allow Safari to remember and autofill account names and passwords for all websites.
    If you're using iOS 7.1.2 or later, Always Allow Autofill is on by default. Use these steps if you're using iOS 7.0.3 or later:
    Tap Settings > Safari > Passwords & Autofill.
    Turn on Always Allow. To use this feature, you must have a passcode lock on your device.
    Use these steps if you're using OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later:
    Go to Safari > Preferences.
    Click Passwords.
    Select "Allow AutoFill even for websites that request passwords not be saved." To use this feature, you must set a screen lock for your Mac.
    Have a great day,
    Joe
