Mouse scroll-down doesn't work....

LIttle trackball for scrolling on my mouse doesn't work when attempting to scroll down. I've looked at the pref settings for it, and it all seems fine. It will move in all other directions, just not down.
Advice please?

Glad it worked. Folks seem to have varying probs w the scroll wheel. I have been lucky. 1st one lasted 4 months and would not clean. Free replacement. This one is now going on a year w a couple of minor cleans.

The mouse scroll wheel doesn't work with Xorg

I recently installed Solaris 10 on my x86 box. One issue is that the mouse scroll wheel doesn't work with Xorg. Hmmm... Okay, it sometimes did work, and most of the time went on strike, and recovered at random. This pattern continued.
My mouse is an ordinary PS/2 one with two buttons and a scroll wheel. I want to promise that there's absolutely nothing wrong with it per se. Here is some info:
$ uname -a
SunOS arbiter 5.10 Generic_127112-07 i86pc i386 i86pc
$ grep -i mouse /var/log/Xorg.0.log

# The section about mouse in /etc/X11/xorg.conf follows:

        Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
EndSection
# Note that the only result of explicitly changing protocol to ExplorerPS/2, PS/2, IMPS/2 or whatever else is that the cursor jumped here and there and everywhere when I moved the mouse.I ever post one in comp.unix.solaris to ask for help but got no effective solution. Thank you all.

Scroll ball doesn't work

scroll ball doesn't work. there is nothing like NOKIA as we can easily view messages through NOKIA PC Suite

what u can try to do is to press the ball a little harder while scrolling this can take the dust out of the device.
or if u are really handy you can take out the ball to clean it yourself
else it is an internal problem that can only be solved by sending it to a repair center

Scrolling page doesn't work in "Fit one full page to window" view

Scrolling page doesn't work in “Fit one full page to window” view
it is still not working in V11.0.10 is there a new fix?

Not sure exactly what you mean. It may be that you have continuous view activated, rather than the page view.

Since last week my date & time have not worked on my 5c. The date & time are constantly wrong. I've shut down, doesn't work. Set it automatically, doesn't work. I don't get texts or calls when it's sleeping. Any suggestions?

try a reset.
Hold the home & power buttons down simultaneously until you see the Apple logo appear.

My mouse scrolls down, but never up?

I have an Apple USB Mouse plugged in to my keyboard (it came with my MacPro and is about 4 years old). Recently, for no apparent reason, it stopped scrolling up in all applications (not just Internet sites). It scrolls down just fine, but never up. I've tried playing with the settings, but nothing seems to fix this issue. Is my mouse kaput?

Mighty mouse scrolls down but not up

why is my mighty mouse scrolling down but not up on my browsers?

Usually it is accumulated crud: skin oils and flakes of skin and dirt, but some have been accepted for repair by Apple. Occasionally a restart fixes the problem. If not there was a recent discussion that yielded several promising suggestions:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2248877#2248877
These included cleaning the ball with a soft cloth, cleaning the ball with a baby wipe, and disassembling the mouse to thoroughly clean the interior.

I recently bought the 27" IMac. I have to force shut it down, the menu shut down doesn't work, and most of the time it will start back up on it's own several hours or even days later. Any ideas?

Note: No iMac PPC is 27". PPC is for the iMacs that were new until the beginning of 2006. They are all Intel now.

Mighty Mouse Scroll Down Issues

Hello, I have a wired Mighty Mouse that I use with my Mac Mini. For awhile my mighty mouse will scroll up, and side to side but it will not scroll down.
I have used a lint free cloth and tried cleaning it vigorously upside down with the felt cloth as well as other objects with no luck. It is not within coverage so I was wondering if anyone has had some other resolutions for this and please no answers like "Buy a new mouse". I have another mouse but I want this one working.
Thank you for your time

Isopropyl alcohol. Preferably 95% but I've done this with the typical 70%, so whatever you have in your medicine cabinet. With Mouse unplugged (powered off, battery removed for wireless mice,) put the mouse on a paper towel and pour a small amount of alcohol over the ball. What you are trying to do is get some alcohol down past the ball and into the internal rollers, which have some gunk on them that you're trying to remove. Isopropyl alcohol will not corrode the electronics and will help loosen and break up the gunk. Roll the ball and pour a little more. Repeat a few times. You will want to let everything dry as much as possible before using. Thus pouring a small amount and not the whole bottle and not "dunking" the mouse in a bowl filled with isopropyl alcohol. Do that only if you get really desperate, but if you do, then let it drip and air dry afterward.
There is not much space for the gunk to be "flushed" out so eventually this may not work. At which point you can look on Youtube and see several tutorials on disassembling the mouse. The mouse is glued together so this is not without risk. You may end up just buying a replacement mouse so just be prepared before attempting disassembly or even the alcohol.
(In case you're concerned, isopropyl alcohol has been used for cleaning around electronics for many, many, many years. Used to clean water/syrup/milk/juice damage since it doesn't corrode the circuit boards. While it generally doesn't conduct electricity, it was generally discouraged to use it on live equipment for various reasons. And due to skin irritation, gloves often were used, but in this case with the mouse and the small amount being used, it's up to you to whether you want to use gloves and eye protection.)

Xcelsius/Dashboard Design - mouse over capability doesn't work/losing hover

Hello there, I am currently in a tough situation. If any Xcelsius gurus can provide me with a solution, I would very much appreciate your help.
I currently have a dashboard with pie chart component in the default view. It has a radio button with two values. The mouse over doesn't work when the dashboard is loaded. However, when I make a selection in the radio button, the mouse over works for both the options. I have noticed this is a bug but if anyone has a solution or way around it, let me know.
Another issue - I have a 'All' view and 'Region' views in the menu bar. When a user clicks on a particular Region, then clicks all and goes back to a region, I lose the drill down capability on the pie chart thats on the Region view. initially, the mouse over and drill down works fine. However, after going to the All view and coming back to a region, this capability is lost. It acts the same way as the problem above. User can't hover nor drill down. If anyone has a solution to this, let me know.

FYI this is the article on the main forum page:

Why isn't my wired Mighty Mouse scrolling down?

Some days like right now my wired Mighty Mouse that came with my late 2007 20" aluminum iMac doesn't want to scroll downwards. The scroll ball scrolls upwards and sideways perfectly but doesn't want to scroll down. Why is it doing this? I tried cleaning the area of the scroll ball but still nothing. Please don't say that I need a new mouse.

I have the same problems with my less than six weeks old 24" iMac & two yr old macbook: i always wipe my hands before using them. I have tried most suggestions on this forum and others to no avail.
I could probably get a replacement thru apple care for my iMac, but since the problem is so prevalent, another mouse is not a viable solution.
At this time, I actually prefer using an old cheap wired mouse that was in storage .
To those considering another brand, I had random waking & waking only with restarting issues with a wireless logitech mouse on my macbook.

ThinkPad Helix - Swipe Down Doesn't Work

The "swipe down from top" gesture doesn't work in any Windows 8 metro/modern app. I can close an app by dragging down with the mouse, but swiping down with my finger on the screen does nothing. Has anyone else experienced or fixed this? Thank you.
Luke
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I downloaded this app which tracks your finger with crosshairs as you move it across the touch screen:
http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us/app/multi-touch-test/f8bf3f19-2b34-4440-a465-06b87c2e9b7e
When I move my finger toward the top of the screen, there's about an inch near the top where it doesn't track my finger at all. This one-inch vertical "dead" zone is consistent from the left side of the screen to the right.
It's frustrating because many touch-enabled metro/modern apps have navigation controls and search fields in this area. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Booting problem, mouse and keyboard doesn't work for 2 minutes

I got a brand new mac mini 2.4Ghz just 3 weeks ago, got a few problems over the last week that I've been able to fix, but now I'm stuck with a problem when booting. The booting process seems a bit slow, and once the desktop has been fully loaded, the keyboard and mouse doesn't work, and the computer is using the non-calibrated Display Profile. After about 2 minutes, the display profile change to calibrated, and the mouse and keyboard work again. I have no clue about how to fix that problem, and I'm thinking about bringing the computer to an Apple Store by tomorrow if I can't fix it.

I am using Mac running OS X Mavericks (10.9.1) and Firefox 26. Two finger scroll down is not working all of a sudden only with Firefox.

Hardware : Macbook Pro
Operating System : OS X Mavericks v10.9.1
Browser : Firefox v26.0
All of a sudden, two finger scrolls doesn't work. Thats only when I am within Firefox Window. Everywhere it just works great. I got NO scroll bars at the edges of browser(Firefox) too. No way of proper browsing other than switching to Safari.
Request to fix this asap.
Thanks.

I'm having the same problem but what I found was the scrolling on my iMac was it works until you try and swipe to go back a page. Then the only solution is the quit the program and restart it.
Spec is an Apple magic track Pad on my iMac with OS X 10.9.
I'm currently using FireFox v25 but the same issue is in v27.0.1.
