My scroll bar arrows disappeared after my cat 11 lb cat lay on the keyboard. Cac anyone help?   keyboard

I am using Lion and had no problems. Then my 11 lb cat decided to lie on the keyboard. She turned on the accessibility,  keeping me from scrolling, but I turned that off. After what she did my scroll bar arrows vanished. My mouse has a scroll wheel but on some pages I need to use the bar. Any advice?

Yes.....be sure to feed the cat hairball control treats every other day and keep it groomed.

  • Down arrow in scrolling  bar has disappeared

    On most screens the down arrow in the scrolling bar has disappeared or occupies the same space as the page expansion square in the lower right hand corner. Tried having the up arrow both at the top and at the bottom of the scrolling bar. Diappearance occurs on all screens originating from Firefox. It is available on this screen and most linked pages from Firefox.

    Check the properties of the file, in the Initial View Tab > Hide Windows Controls is not checked. You should always be able to scroll with a scrolling mouse.

  • How Do I Get back scroll bar arrows Back

    Is there a way to get back scroll bar arrows back in OS 10.8.4  ? Thats all.

    Newer systems might also provide different functionality instead of just more.
    There are many cases where Apple has changed things (taken away here, given something different there) and with good results.
    However I agree with you bernuli:  (Mountain) Lion has been a disaster in many ways.  At least to me.  I produce information and want to be productive with precision and speed.  I know how to spell and I know what I am looking at.  So I want all animations OFF, all spelling checking OFF, all horrible yellow "tooltips" OFF and so on.
    Just today I have finally switched, after more than two years ago buying a machine specially for Lion and figuring out how to live with it.  I can still feel my blood pressure rise, despite a lot of tweaking in those two years.  I want those little arrows back (using TinkerTool I had both of them at the top and both at the bottom!)  The keyboard arrows are NOT a replacement.
    You will be assimilated into the touch-interface world, resistance is futile.

    Open General preferences in System Preferences. You can set the desired scrollbar behavior there.

  • Vertical scroll bar indicator disappears

    For some reason the only the scroll bar indicator becomes invisible and only appears when I have the mouse hovering over the location of the indicator in the scroll bar. I am able to see the scroll bars themselves, its just the blue indicator bar that is shown in the scroll bar that disappears . I tried restarting Firefox to see if might fix the problem but it didn't. I had to restart the computer before I got the scroll bar indicator back. But it wasn't long before it disappears again.
    Any suggestions? I'm using the latest version of Firefox and Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.
    Thanks

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode

    Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Scroll Bar arrows Gone?

    The verical scoll bar arrows are no longer there on OS X 10.7.
    Any way in System prefs or Safari prefs to get them back?

    Installed Lion today. Started testing out applications and I miss and still need the scroll bar arrows.
    I use several applications where the arrows on the scroll bar allow small movement as one line, especially important when copying several different sections of several paragraphs in Word, picking and choosing file movement in Spring Cleaning, or seeing just how far your object is off the printable field in Visio.
    I do love the touch functions of my iPhone but this will just not work on a desktop workstation.
    Does someone know if Apple will look at these comments with some interest in keeping those of us that have used Apple hardware since the Apple II happy?
    Well for now, I'm just moving back to Snow Leopard. So much for progress.

    Thanks for your quick response. I've tried everything you suggested and get only temporary fixes. Sometimes for a day or two, sometimes only until I use Safari for the first time. It's annoying and probably effects battery life between charges.
    You would think that it must have some effect on the battery, but oddly enough, the update to iOS 8 actually helped my battery life, in spite of all of these hinky little issues that are taking place. In my experience, the activity icon is not affecting the battery in a negative way.
    Another issue with IOS 8.1 that you may have seen is the loss of icon pictures on home pages. Again it seems to be Safari related, since app icons found in the App Store are not affected, only web based icons you personally put on home pages. I get what I call a test screen similar to what you used to get on old tv sets on every one of my personal icons.
    I know exactly what you mean. I got that as well. On a few of them, when I opened the websites using the generic test screen icons and then closed them, they changed back to the way that they should look. For the ones that did not change, I recreated the home screen shortcuts and deleted the generic looking ones - the test screen icons.
    And don't get me started on iBooks.
    For the very limited use that I make of the iBooks app, i haven't noticed any problems, but I rarely use the app. I don't read books on the iPad other than a few user guides and if they are pdf guides, they reside in more reliable and feature rich pdf apps on my iOS device.
    I wish that I had the fix for the spinning activity icon, but everything that I try, is temporary at best. IMO, this is the buggiest iOS update that I have seen, and I have been using iOS devices since iOS 3 on my first iPad. I realize that there are plenty of people that are not experiencing issues, but I have seen a number of weird things that I wish I could fix. None of my problems are major, but they are annoying.

  • No scroll bar arrows in some Safari apps - is there a recent update on these much missed arrows?

    I know, I know, there has been much discussion on these arrows.  I have read most of it.  But I am still using OS 10.6.8 and the arrows are missing in ALOT of the sites I use (Safari 5.1.10) (I have arrows in this forum and am thankful for it!).  Yes, the up and down arrows work.  No, there is no "General" in my System Preferences.  Yes, I want the scroll bar arrows back everywhere!  Writing to Apple won't help cause I don't plan on updating to any new version in the near future!
    Thanks!
    P.S.  I know I am late to the discussion - please don't roll your eyes when you see this!

    No, there is no "General" in my System Preferences.
    System Preferences - click and hold the 'Show All' button to see if General is listed there.

  • Why does my scroll bar keep disappearing when I am trying to scroll on my macbook pro . I am using osx version 10.9

  • Why mouse arrow disappears after I upgraded to osx Mavericks

    why mouse arrow disappears after I upgraded to osx Mavericks-==

    After I upgraded to Mavericks, Quicktime has had to convert MPEG-4 videos to .mov.... Why? Is there a way to stop that or to change the settings?
    Your question requires more information. What does MPEG-4 mean to you? What file container and which compression formats are you referring to here? Is the MPEG-4 content "standard" or proprietary. Basically, depending on the file container and the specific content, QT X v10.3 may initiate a conversion ever where the individual data tracks are fully QT compatible. Proprietary compression formats will definitely do this. In some cases, the audio or video in one source container may simply be passed through to the MOV file while in another source container, QT X v10.3 forces a conversion of that same data track. In short, there are too many variables at this point to properly answer your question or attempt to duplicate your workflow.

    Hi cybertoof,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you're seeing a startup issue with your Mac, it's booting to a gray screen with an Apple logo. Try the suggestions in the article linked below, they will resolve most issues related to starting up your Mac.

    Try booting to the recovery partition and running Disk Utility.
    1, Boot while holding down the command and R keys (two keys).
    see this page: http://www.apple.com/osx/recovery/
    2. Run Disk Utility, select the hard drive in the left column, First Aid then click Repair Disk.
    3. Quit DU and restart.
    If that does not do it, you can reinstall the OS from the same screen as took you to DU.
    (My cat has never been able to do what yours did. I think he is just trying to email his friends.)
