My little scroll button on top of my older model A1197 mouse.

My little scroll button on top of my older model A1197 mouse works only intermittantly and usually, if at all, only in one direction.  ??

This is usually caused by debris building up between the rollerball and the rollers underneath.  Sometimes you can free this up by turning the mouse upside down and rubbing the rollerball vigorously on a sheet of paper.

  • Mighty Mouse scroll button

    The scroll button on my Mighty Mouse has stopped functioning. I thought it was perhaps due to a low battery level but a battery change didn't help. I've noticed the battery charge (via iStat Pro) seems to bleed quite quickly on the mouse and I've upgraded my battery choice. I like the Apple mouse pretty well... the only wireless mouse I've owned... and I've grown quite dependent on the scrolling function. Is there a history of these buttons wearing prematurely? Is there a way to "repair" a non-functioning scroll button? I'd hate to lose the mouse by attempting to disassemble something that shouldn't be tampered with. BTW, it's only about 6 months old. Thanks for input!

    From what I've read, Apple will replace a mouse under warranty for this reason, but to avoid the hassle of driving 50 minutes to my nearest Apple store, I just clean my mouse once per week using the damp cloth treatment. So far so good. Once per week, I run a basic maintenance program and afterwards I have to shut down and restart, so while it's shut down, I clean the mouse, the keyboard, the screen, and the case. It only takes a couple of minutes, and I keep the computer looking like new.

  • How can I remove the scroll buttons on the firefox 4 context menu?

    My display is set to 1600x1200 and the apparently fixed size for context menus with scroll arrows at the top and bottom make using firefox 4 a bit inconvenient. Is there any way to eliminate these scroll buttons and revert to the firefox 3 style of context menu?

    After quitting firefox and starting it again the stupid scroll arrows are back in the context menu. I'm beginning to hate firefox 4.

  • After updating to ios5 the shortcut 'tapping top of screen' to scroll back to top does not work! Is there a way to get that back?

    Since updating my ipad2 to iOS 5 the shortcut 'tap top of screen to quickly scroll back to top' no longer functions! How can I get this back?

    It still works on my iPad - is it working on any of your apps e.g. Safari, Mail, Notes, and are you touching right at the top of the screen (I've seen a few other posts implying that the area of the screen that you need to touch isn't quite as deep as it used to be) ? Have you tried a reset to see if it works after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • CreateInsert puts table scroll at the top position

    Hi all,
    I've found a strange behaviour with ADF Tables with editingMode="editAll":
    Clicking the CreateInsert button always puts the table scroll at the top position, which is really annoying. Does anyone know how to solve it?
    Thanks in advance
    Barbara
    Version
    ADF Business Components 11.1.1.56.60
    Java(TM) Platform 1.6.0_18
    Oracle IDE 11.1.1.3.37.56.60

    In my case, rows don't have to be added as the last in the table, just next to the current row. Anyway, your link gave me a clue: use displayRow="selected" in af:table instead of the default value (displayRow="first") turns the selected row always visible, which is exactly what I wanted : )
    Thanks, Shay!

  • Scroll Button in sidebar are not displayed correct

    only one scroll button in the sidebar at the top and the lower end is displayed. This effect appears also in garageband after the update to iLife 09.
    does anybody have the same problem?

    Quit iPhoto (and garage band) and delete the iPhoto preference file (do not know if that is good for garage band or not) - "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> con.apple.iPhoto.plist - launch iPhoto and reset any personal preferences you have changed and repoint to the iPhoto library if you have moved it

  • Air for ios scrolling buttons

    Hi in alot of apps there are buttons that you can scroll them up and
    down even in the app list you can scroll the apps to the right and left
    There is a code in flash that i can do scrolling buttons(up and down)
    EXACTLY like in the XCODE(the original iphone developing program) apps?
    Thanks.

    You want to scroll... Use a spark scroller? or a spark list? The scroller allow you to scroll vertically, horizontally or both. You place your components inside a vertical | horizontal | tiles group that is linked to that scroller.
    Like this :
    <s:Scroller left="10" top="10"right="10" height="200">
            <s:VGroup width="100%" height="100%">
                <s:Label text="Label"/>
                <s:Label text="Label"/>
                <s:Label text="Label"/>
                <s:RadioButton label="RadioButton"/>
                <s:RadioButton label="RadioButton"/>
                <s:Button label="Bouton"/>
                <s:Label text="Label"/>
                <s:BusyIndicator/>
                <s:Button label="Bouton"/>
            </s:VGroup>
    </s:Scroller>

  • JTree scrollbar problem - can't scroll back to top when some nodes hidden

    I have a problem which I cannot resolve: I have a JTree which has had 88 rows added to it, and which then has 15 or so rows set to be not visible; when I then scroll to the bottom of the pane I am unable to scroll all the way back to the top using either the scroll button at the top of the bar or the mouse scroll wheel although I can drag the knob to get to the top; using the button or wheel, the scrolling stops somewhat short of the top; via testing I've found that the AdjustmentEvent is not fired when it reaches that point. Anyone seen this before and/or know a way around it?
    Thanks in advance,
    Mike

    MikeAuerbach267 wrote:
    It turns out that my problem was due to the fact that I am using my own TreeCellRenderer which makes invisible some nodes via user option but doesn't reload the tree; hence the confusion as to the scrollbar size. I now correctly reload after user option has changed rather than render nodes invisible and all is fine. Which reinforces Andrew's view in reply #1 that a 'vague waving about of hands' does not allow the forum members to help.

  • Scroll button doesn't work

    I have a connected mouse with a little ball on the top. I used to be able to turn this ball and my pages would scroll. They don't now. How can I get this back?
    Thank you

    If the ball in the mouse isn't the problem then try logging into your Guest account and see if scrolling works as expected in that account.

  • Prev Next Buttons on top of jQuery

    I have a scrolling banner and on the left and right of the image I want to place 2 buttons on top of the image that scrolls.
    I have coded CSS style position:absolute or even relative, which displays fine if jQuery is not used.
    How can I code this to jQuery as the previous and next always sits underneath the image and you cannot see it
    http://www.australiancheapholidays.com/site/
    thanks

    Give the 'dialog' <div> a position of relative:
    .dialog {
    position: relative;
    Then absolutely position your 'prev2' and 'next2' links (z-index, see below) will place the links on top of the banner images.
    #prev2 {
    position: absolute;
    top: 130px;
    left: 30px;
    z-index: 300;
    #next2 {
    position: absolute;
    top: 130px;
    left: 920px;
    z-index: 320;

  • Simple up/down scroll button to control overflow

    I.
    I´m trying to do a simple up/down scroll button to control the overflow of a div with text inside it.
    My code:
    Mousedown:
    sym.getComposition().getStage().$("section_article_nosContigo_container").animate({ scrollTop: '+=40' });
    Mouseup:
    sym.getComposition().getStage().$("section_article_nosContigo_container").animate({ scrollTop: "+=0" });
    This is Heathrowe's original code - all credit to him -, but I want the buttons to do a continuously scroll until I Mouseup and not bit by bit ('+=40').
    How do I do it?
    Thanx.

    This should help
    View sample here - http://www.heathrowe.com/edge/scroll_continuous/scrollcontinuous.html

  • I just dwnld vr 6 and now my scroll button on my acer does not work!

    I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
    The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
    if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
    Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
    turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

  • Scroller Button - when on ZEN VISION? Its ace on the ZEN XTRA why do people use awkward touch pa

    Do you prefer the inprecise touch pad or the fast button?
    Thanks

    I just got a Zen nano plus with scroll button, and don't care much for it. If you don't press it exactly straight, you end up doing something you don't want, and in some cases it's a lot of work to recover (example...in the middle of an 8 hour audiobook, hit the button and accidentally go to the beginning of the file and start the whole book over, with no easy way to get back where you were).
    My preference is the system used on Cowon's F...a little button/joystick in the center of a 4-button touch pad, and the functions of the joystick can be modified in the player setup (so if you push it the wrong way, it goes back/forward 30 seconds instead of to the beginning of the file or the next file).
    I have friends who have not bought the Zen specifically because of the scroll button, so I'm not the only one who thinks it's not the best.
