My mouse wheel won't scroll through tabs

I can't remember if it was right when I updated to v.22, but if not then it was shortly after that my mouse wheel stopped working for scrolling through tabs. I can still scroll through pages just fine, but even on safe mode and with hardware acceleration disabled, if I put my cursor over tabs and scroll, nothing happens.

Hello,
note that to scroll through tabs with mouse wheel, you can position the mouse cursor, between the two arrows at each end, of the row of tabs. That means that you have quite a few tabs to see the arrows at each end.
otherwise, '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

  • Scrolling through tabs in Firefox without opening them

    With many tabs open we get two arrows on top of the screen to scroll left and right through tabs by clicking with the mouse. Please see the attached image for an example.
    Is there a keyboard shortcut for those arrows or is it possible to add one?
    Note: I am aware that we can scroll through tabs directly with Alt+[Num], or by using Ctrl+PgUp and Ctrl+PgDown. I have dozens of tabs open, so if I want to go to tab 35 I can't use Alt+[Num], and using Ctrl+PgDn is a problem if I'm say in tab 65. The reason is that with Ctrl+PgDn the tabs from 65 back to 35 would all open while I'm passing through them.

    Image wasn't attached properly and I can't seem to edit the question. Here it is.

  • Installed Firefox 3.6.10 now my mouse wheel doesn't scroll

    I just installed FF 3.6.10 update, and now my mouse wheel doesn't scroll. I checked my mouse settings, and all is correct. Mouse wheel scrolls in non-Firefox applications, including off-line folders and online IE. Mouse wheel worked fine with last version of FF. Also tried hooking up a different mouse, (an old mechanical one at that), same problem. If this cannot be fixed, how can I uninstall the latest update and rollback to the previous version?

    thanks for all the tips, however none of these work. Installed 3.6.10, 3.6.11 and latest version 3.6.13 but the mouse wheel is still not working.
    Waiting for comment from Mozilla. If they take this problem serious, which I doubt, reading about the problem since September and 86 people who reported...

  • Missing arrows for scrolling through tabs

    I am missing the left and right arrow keys for scrolling through tabs. They show up in new windows, but not in restored windows.

    The time it worked I completely closed all the "original restored" windows and made a new window with more than 11 tabs. This new window had the left/right arrows for scrolling through the tabs. They also appeared when I forced quit firefox and restored using session restore addon.
    This is only happening to my previous sessions. Any new session is working fine.
    Also my os is mac.

  • My mouse wheel has stopped scrolling up

    I've had the Mac Might Mouse for about 5 months now when all of a sudden the scroll up function on the ball has stopped working.  I could feel something mechanically happen when this stopped functioning.  Please let me know if there is a way I can fix it.  The mouse wheel will still scroll left, right and down.  Thank you.

    The MagicMouse is covered by the same on-year warranty as all Apple products - if it has stopped working properly take it to an Apple store genius bar where they can either find out what is wrong or replace it.

  • Installed firefox 4 and now mouse wheel doesn't scroll in browser

    I upgraded to the Firefox 4 browser, and since then I cannot scroll using the "mouse wheel" on my laptop's touch pad in the browser window. It works fine in other applications. I tried the tips suggested for a similar problem with version 3.etc, etc, but they did nothing (eg; going into about:config and resetting or the options tab). Suggestions?

    Go to tools , options, advanced, general and check the option for smooth scroll. :)

  • Rendering of tab row and pages is totally messed up when I add/remove/scroll through tabs

    After upgrading to 4b9 from 4b8, the rendering is totally messed up, whenever I add, remove or simply scroll through the tab row (if I'm calling it correctly). The tab row basically disappears and at least 5 seconds to come back, while lots of flashing and buggy behavior. During this time the rendering of the main page is also messed up.
    After it finishes rendering, the main page could still be in a bad state. At which I have to switch tabs or scroll the main page, to force a re-draw of the main page, to get the rendering looking correct.
    The only clue I have is that I have lots and lots of tabs open. And it looks like when I'm on the first few tabs it doesn't happen as badly.. This worked perfectly on 4b8.

    I'm sorry to hear that you have so many issues. What version of Firefox were you using before?
    The double title bar issue has been identified as an issue with the Tax Mix Plus extension but it doesn't affect everyone, it's an interaction with something else (not exactly clear what, although Norton Toolbar was mentioned in one thread).
    There is a new version available that you could try. If Firefox is stable enough to do it...
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > "gear" icon > Check for Updates
    If your beta version won't update, you could try installing [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/ from the add-ons site].
    More generally, could I suggest disabling as many extensions as you can live without for 24 hours, and re-enable them gradually? This should help isolate interactions between them. As you know, you can do that here:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
    Finally, regarding your old session, if you haven't closed Firefox, you might find a sessionstore.bak file in your profile folder that contains your old session. To easily access that folder, try
    Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
    Grab a copy of that file and save it somewhere outside the folder because it is overwritten when you close Firefox. Got to run, but if you find one with an appropriate date, someone can help you restore it.

  • Mo28uo mouse wheel will not scroll in firefox

    I have an IBM model MO28UO mouse. The mouse is unable to scroll up and down pages in Firefox using the wheel. It is able to do this in all other programs I have tried. I have downloaded the latest drivers for the mouse and I have changed the settings on the Firefox about:config page as Firefox advises. However, my mouse will still not scroll in Firefox. Any help is appreciated.

    A known problem.  Do a search for this.

  • Photoshop Elements 13 - Mouse wheel won't zoon.

    Have Photoshop Elements on trial basis.  Find that the mouse wheel does not work to zoom in or out when looking at an image.  My prior version of PE did.  Can't find where to set this so mouse wheel works as zoom.  I did find the slide bar to zoom in and out, but like the mouse wheel method better.  Has anyone encountered and solved this issue?  Thanks for any input.   Jerry

    This is a Photoshop Forum, not devoted to Elements, but on the off chance your Preferences file is similar to Photoshop's you may want to look here for zoom settings

  • Magic mouse that won't scroll

    Hi, I have got a new magic mouse but it does not scroll, the scrolling feature does not show in mouse preferences, it only shows tracking speed and double-click speed. In Bluetooth preferences it says the mouse is connected and paired, but in Keyboard & Mouse Bluetooth preferences the keyboard name is there and it shows the battery level, but shows no name or battery level for the mouse.  Please can anyone help? Thank you. x

    If you're on 10.5.8 as your profile indicates then you need this update for Magic Mouse support.

  • Mac mouse wheel & trackpad--not scrolling in flash fields

    In several (probably all) Flash apps, scrollable fields do not respond to my mousewheel or trackpad scrolls. Thoughts?
    Running current Snow Leopard, and Flash 10.0.45.2.
    Thanks!

    Hi hunter, The person that possibly could help you hasn't been on the forum today. I am a newbie when it comes to the
    Mac:-) Perhaps he will be on later. He most always replies to the threads that have Mac in their subject line.
    Flash Player with a PC is what I understand the best.
    If I thot I could have been any help, I would have responded earlier.

  • IPhone Contacts Won't Scroll Through Alphabet

    When I go into the contacts on the home page, or the contacts in the phone area, I cannot use the scroll bar on the right side of the screen. I can only make it go to the search (top of the page) or the As, and there are more than As in the contact list. Worked fine in previous version and noticed it didn't work immediately after upgrade, since I use it a lot. My wife's phone, which is identical, does scroll? Tried turning off and restarted multiple times.

    Wow! Thanks for the tip Peter.
    Your comment got me thinking about what was different between our phones, which is I have the exchange server option. So I went into the settings for that account, turned off the contacts for outlook and I could scroll once again. Turned the contacts back on, and everything is working perfectly again.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Slidebar keeps changing sides and won't scroll up/down with my mouse wheel

  • Whenever I open a pdf document in a tab, it takes away my ability to scroll through websites open on other tabs. How do I fix this?

    I have use a laptop with a mouse, and I have the touch pad enabled. When I have just one PDF open the touch pad will scroll through only the PDF while the mouse wheel will still scroll through websites in other tabs. However if I open a second PDF the mouse wheel will cease to scroll through other sites and only work in that document. I have the latest version of adobe reader as the default PDF viewer. Also, if I leave a PDF document open when I leave the computer my stumbleupon toolbar will have switched places with my bookmarks toolbar when I come back; restarting Firefox always fixes this, though.

    I already found the Javascript solution in Acrobat... It works more or less (layout problems), but it's impossible to do one by one as I have many links in my doc...
    I don't understand why it's not possible to make it directly with InDesign before exporting it in pdf or while exporting it. There should be an option in the "new hyperlink" dialog box or in the pdf parameters.
    Does someone have another idea?
