My scroll isn't working

My scrolling with the trackpad is not working on my Macbook Pro with Retina Display. It is brand new.

Hi avalewinter,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're not able to scroll using the trackpad on your MacBook Pro. I know it may be frustrating to see unexpected behavior with a new computer, and I recommend using these tips to troubleshoot the trackpad:
First, check the scroll direction of the trackpad. You may need to un-check "natural" if you're expecting windows or pages to scroll down (instead of up) when you swipe down:
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Trackpad.
Scroll direction: natural: Select this option to move the contents of a window in the same direction as your fingers.
You can find this information here:

All the best,
Jeremy

  • [apvlv] mouse scrolling doesn't work anymore

    Hello guys,
    it occured with some newer version of apvlv that mouse scrolling isn't working anymore. Is there any chance to activate that feature again?
    Best regards

    Hmm It sounds like a problem with apvlv. Does another mouse work with it? Email one or both of these telling them the problem:

  • My cursor isn't working on Firefox so I can't scroll down - I must manually hold vertical bar to move page - I've already tried troubleshooting - helped temporarily, but still problem now - cursor otherwise works on other servers

    My cursor isn't working on Firefox, so I can't scroll down - I must manually hold the vertical bar to move page.

    I have had this nagging problem several times. Each time more frustrating than the last.
    '''PDF''''s. If you have a .pdf page open in Firefox (as often happens when looking at brochures and whatnot from websites) the mousepad side scroll function will not work. Plugging in an external usb device works just fine, making the situation that much more aggravating.
    Simply close any windows or tabs from Firefox that are displaying .pdf's, and the blood pressure "should" return to normal values. If your blood pressure doesn't return to a satisfactory value, see your family doctor. He'll probably ensure your continued trust in Firefox is still better than any experience with explor.er.

  • Alt & scroll wheel not working on Photoshop CC to zoom in / out

    Hey! So i'm using the latest version of Photoshop CC, and i'm also running the Technical Preview of Windows 10. So In Photshop, usually when you hold the alt key and scroll with the scroll wheel on your mouse, it will zoom in / out of the image on Photoshop. Well i'm having some problems with that, it isn't working at all. In preferences I have it set to zoom with scroll wheel. Anyone know why it isn't working? Could it be something with the Windows 10 Preview?

    Please report Windows 10 issues to Microsoft, so they can get the information they need to fix the OS bugs before shipping the final version.

  • Magic Mouse - scrolling doesn't work on some web pages

    The scroll function on my Magic Mouse isn't working on some web pages. The main ones it struggles with are news sites (e.g. The Telegraph), or things that regularly update (e.g. BBC Sport live commentaries). When this is a problem the page won't scroll at all, even if you enable the scroll bars at the side of the page and try to drag manually. The majority of web pages do work however. Thoughts?

    Hello Halifax:
    Are you really running OS X 10.3?
    These are the requirements for a magic mouse:
    Minimum Requirements
    A Bluetooth-enabled Macintosh computer
    Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later with Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0* or Mac OS X v10.6.1 or later >with Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0

  • Satellite C50-B-14D - Two finger scroll is not working

    I have had my laptop for about 6 months now and am generally happy with it. However, the two finger scroll has stopped working (it was working fine when I got it and for a while after). I know it's not essential, but it makes such a difference for the work I end up having to do, which often involves copying and pasting etc, and I really miss it!
    I've read many threads saying that you should go to Control Panel, click on Mouse and go to device settings. However when I get to that point, my Mouse box just says "buttons; pointers; pointer options; hardware" and there is no "device settings" panel along the top. What can I do? I also can't find the synaptics driver anywhere to uninstall it, as some other people have suggested.

    Obviously this additional touchpad feature isn’t available because the touchpad driver isn’t installed.
    I recommend you to visit the Toshiba EU driver page and to download the touchpad driver for this notebook model.
    I’m not quite sure what touchpad module this notebook supports (Synaptics or ELAN) but I think you could try to check both drivers.
    If one would not work, check the other one…
    After that you should see the additional tab within control panel -> mouse

  • Secondary click isn't working!

    I'm using a MacBook Pro Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013 and the secondary click, even though enabled on the trackpad system preferences, isn't working.
    Anyone who has been dealing with the same problem or has any idea how to solve it? The only way how to make it work seems to me by pressing ctrl+click, which has turned out be quite annoying everytime I need it...
    Thanks!

    I'm appreciating this discussion. I've been on 10.7.5 for several months (late adopter) and only started having Mighty Mouse problems a couple of days ago.
    Like Dave, my Wacom tablet is working just fine. (Well, it got a little erratic yesterday--lost its sense of orientation and I thought I might need to recalibrate--but I rebooted the system and it got its brains back.)
    The Mighty Mouse, however, continues to only respond reliably to the left click.
    I did have more problems. The scroll would only work sometimes, and then only down page (not up again)--"trackball cleaning" (unplugging and rolling it around on paper) seemed not to produce results but did fix that problem.
    The right click is still a nothing, and I need it. I've checked all settings under both "mouse" and "universal access." (Wacom pen right-clicks great, as usual. Good thing I have multiple input devices.)
    I'm downloading the Overdrive software, and if that doesn't work I may go get a Logitech mouse.

  • Hello! I have an older 20G ipod where the "circle" to scroll no longer works! any suggestions??

    Hello! I have an older 20G ipod where the "circle" to scroll no longer works! any suggestions??

    Considering the age of the iPod, it's likely been through quite a bit of useage and needs to be replaced.  There really isn't much else you can do to troubleshoot this issue.
    If you would like to have it repaired, there are several 3rd party repair companies out there who can do the job at a pretty decent price.

  • Scroll Motion Not Working Right

    Muse 2014.2, Mac OS Mavericks
    Scroll Effects isn't working right. There is no value entered for left-right scrolling (left-right fields are grayed out, so I couldn't change it even if I wanted to), but my stuff scrolls left-right as it scrolls up-down. What gives?? Also, why is the left-right fields grayed out??
    Thanks-

    Didn't take long to find out why. It is because I was applying the Scroll Effect to several objects at one time. When I went back and applied the effect to each individual object, it all worked.

  • TS1398 Got the dreaded no wifi on my wife's iPhone 4S. Wifi greyed out and no luck with the reset network instructions. Why isn't Apple addressing this issue? We are a family of Apple product users, 2 ipads, an ipad mini, 4 iPhones but one isn't working!

    Got the dreaded no wifi on my wife's iPhone 4S. Wifi greyed out and no luck with the reset network instructions. Why isn't Apple addressing this issue? We are a family of Apple product users, 2 ipads, an ipad mini, 4 iPhones but one isn't working! Issue began whenwe upgraded the operating system.....
    Come on Apple.....get this issue sorted out!

    Just out of warranty. This is a software issue. everything was ok until the software update. Apple just need to sort it out.

  • For the second time (I've been to the Genius Bar once already) my WiFi isn't working on my iPhone 4S. This is really infuriating and costly!!! I see others have the same issues.  Can't Apple do anything about this?  It's obviously a hardware problem!

    For the second time (I've been to the Genius Bar already once with this) my Wifi isn't working.  They gave me a new iphone last time, but the new one has the same issue as the old one, I'm guessing.  I've tried resetting the network but that doesn't work.
    I see others have this issue too.
    If this is a hardware problem why doesn't Apple fix it?  Or do I just have to wait another year for another upgrade?
    Currently it's not costing me anything - yet - because I've got the Apple Warranty but this is totally frustating!!! I bought the original phone (which has been replaced in July 2012.  The new phone (without working Wifi) is a month old.
    Will try Restore via ITunes before (I will invariably) have to return to the Genius Bar for another Iphone 4S unless someone has an ingenius solution here?..?

    For what reason, other than making yourself look foolish, would you ask questions that we users could not possibly answer as we're NOT Apple?
    Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as NEW.  Nothing more "ingenius" to suggest than these steps that Apple has outlined in the manual.  If these steps don't work, then go back to the Apple store.

  • Mini DisplayPort to VGA isn't working. It won't recognize any external monitor. It worked just fine with my older spring 2011 MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard, but now with my brand new 2012 MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion, it no longer works

    I just bought a new MacBook Pro this summer and was all excited. But I'm very frustrated right now because I can't connect to any external monitors through VGA. My thunderbolt (DisplayPort Mini) to HDMI works just fine, but when I try with my other connector to go from Thunderbolt (DisplayPort Mini) to VGA, Nothing works. my screen goes blue and changes size like it recognized something but nothing is ever detected on the external moniter or projector. I'm not sure what is wrong but it's very frustrating. I'm just very depressed that it worked just fine with my 2-year-old MacBook Pro but isn't working now. I'm running OS X 10.8.2. I just upgraded yesterday from 10.8.1 but that upgrade did nothing to fix my problem. Can anyone help? Thanks

    I am haveing this exact same issue. I have plugging in 3 monitors and tried two different VGA to mini displayport and nothing is working. I recently bought a Acer monitor and it work for an hour and now it back to doing the same thing.
    When I plug the VGA adapter in to the monitor the monitor think its not connected to a computer then when disconnecting the VGA adapter the monitor thinks it is connected to a computer.
    NEED SOME HELP!!! at the point of all my hair is pulled out.
    ^^^
    that is the same problem i am having! if anyone can help that would be great i'm losing my mind over here

    iPad can connect only in one iTunes Library. If you want to connect it to a iTunes Library then you have to erase it. You can erase it from iTunes. Make sure you iPad doesn't have a password, or if it has a password make sure that you connect to the computer and enter the password of your iPad

  • I've searched to no avail for this problem. Similar posts but none that tell me what to do. I can't add or delete any bookmarks on my iPad 2 running the newest iOS. I know how it's suppose to work, it just isn't working!

    It started after the major update to iOS 7.
    I can't believe that this is so hard to do. It's just not letting me. I can add a bookmark to the home screen just fine, just not in a bookmarks folder anywhere I try.
    I've used Apple products since 2001 and have always loved how intuitive they are. But the Safari browser since iOS 7 has been the worst I've experienced. At least right in the beginning after that update.
    I'd really appreciate any help that doesn't just tell me how it's suppose to work...I know that.
    My iPad 4 is not affected with the problem and works as it should.
