Mouse will not scroll down

My mouse will scroll up and sideways but not down.Anyone else with this problem?

If it's a mighty mouse with the trackball on top, turn it over and rub the ball vigorously on a sheet of paper or microfiber cloth.  The debris jamming the rollers should break free.

    You have to remember, where the scroll ball is, there is a small gap which picks up dust and fluff.   That detritus gets everywhere and in your case affects the downward scroll.  
    Adding just a touch Linc Davis's suggestion, after you have vigorously rubbed the scroll ball on the pad, tap it on a hard surface from time to time.   Sometimes you will see small amounts of fluff appear.   You should also see dirty marks on the pad.

  • Apple mouse will not scroll down

    I have a wirelss mouse (not a Magic Mouse).  The poor creature will not scroll down, infact when using the track button to scroll down, it will go up.  Any suggestions as to how this can be cured.  When I had Apple Care (it is now expired) of the experts suggested rubbing a piece of paper vigoursly over the button a few dozen times - however the mouse now seems to have developed a resistence to this treatment. 

    You're in the Time Capsule forum...no one here focusing on mice.  However...maybe this can help:

  • My mouse will not scroll down pages in Firefox 4 and up.

    The scroll wheel on the mouse no longer works in any version of Firefox from version 4 and up. None of the suggestions I have seen in responses to similar questions do not work. The only thing that works is to downgrade to version 3.6.20 or lower. I am presently using Firefox 6 with Windows XP SP3.

    I have the same problem, the mouse is incompatible with Safari for Windows and MAC. I have instalkled the latest drivers and yet no joy. Switched to my old Logitech M305 and everything works fine. Also my MS Wheel mouse (Corded) works just fine too. After many tries the MS 4000 Wireless mous will not work with safari.
    Why the incompatibility? It surely is software related and seems to be related to the mouse driver.

    My mouse scroll ball will not scroll down.

    Unfortunately the Mighty Mouse is known to have issues when scrolling if it gets dirty. The best you can do is hold it upside down and roll the ball back and forth in every direction for a minute or so, this should help clean it any it may start working again. My school's multimedia lab has 20 workstations that all have that mouse and about half of them work! I'd recommend moving to the magic mouse or another brand's mouse if cleaning does not fix it.

  • TS2662 trackpad and mouse will not scroll

    On 27" iMac using OS 10.7.4, trackpad and mouse will not scroll or swipe, can point with both, click only with mouse, scroll only with keys on keyboard.  What have I done now??? They are all paired with good batteries. Have checked in settings and they are enabled to scroll.

    In Lion the scrolling is natural i.e. reversed to the way that computers typically scroll. Think of the scroll as grabbing the page an moving it either up or down vs moving the scroll bar down up or down. Also, the scroll bars are "hidden" by default and only show up when you are scrolling.
    Are you using and Apple mouse? If you go to the system preferences and then to the "mouse" section there are options to change the natural scrolling. And if you go to System Preferences and then to "general" you can set it to show or hide the scroll bars.
    If this is not what the issue is let me know and let me know what mouse you are using because there is something else that it could be.

  • Curve 9360 Will Not Scroll Down on Browser

    Hello, I've been having trouble lately with my BB Curve in that it will decide at least once a week that it does not want to scroll down at all in the internet browser. It scrolls left and right and goes back and forth between pages just fine, loads the page just fine, but it absolutely will not scroll down! Only a reset by taking out the battery will work to let me scroll down again until the next time it decides to stop working. It doesn't seem to be a specific website I go to, either. It just doesn't want to scroll down! It isn't a critical problem, but it certainly is very annoying when I have a few tabs open and lose all my memory because I have to reset it. Can anyone please give me suggestions on how to fix it? I am hoping it is as simple as downloading some new software or something.

    We need far more information.
    Has it previously scrolled horizontally?   Is the fault restricted to certain browsers or program facilities?   What machine are you using it on?    Has this problem appeared following an OS upgrade.
