  • Laptop Mouse touchpad doesn't work with Firefox 4

    Previously in Firefox 3, I could use the touchpad on my laptop to middle click, and scroll. Now it won't work with Firefox 4. When I try to use the scroll feature it registers the mouse as scrolling, but the page doesn't move at all in Firefox. When I try to open a link in a new tab using middle click it shows the auto scroll but even then the orientation is wrong as well. When trying to close a tab using the middle click it shows the same left to right auto scroll instead. It works fine with a normal mouse, but with a touchpad it doesn't work at all. I have also tried using drivers to fix the problem, but that was not the issue.

    well, if you stick to firefox 4, then i'd say, well, babylon in my memories, it offers a online prompt method of translation, supporting tens of languages, similar to google translate webpages, the url is http://translation.babylon.com/ you can keep firefox 3.x and 4.0 in the same time in your windows. firefox 3.x to 4.0 update is not compulsory, so use the one you feel good with.

  • Is there a way to make the scroll wheel move up and down instantly like you could with previous versions, instead of moving slowly up and down?

    I've only recently updated my firefox to v 15.0.1 after using v 10 for so long, and I was wondering if there is a way to make the scroll wheel move up and down instantly without having it slowly crawl to it's spot?

    you can disable smooth scrolling.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General: Browsing: "Use smooth scrolling"

  • Whenever I have a pdf document open, and then switch to another tab to view another webpage, the scrolling function on the touchpad will not work. This seems to be a glitch with Mozilla, according to Dell. How do I fix this?

    When I open a pdf document (like an E-version of a newspaper) in Mozilla and then switch to another tab to view another webpage, I am unable to use the scrolling function on the touchpad. I have to use the up and down arrows to get other pages to scroll. When I close that pdf document, everything works fine. I talked with customer support with Dell, and he said it was probably a glitch with Mozilla. So I tried to do the same thing on IE, and there was no problem scrolling with the touchpad while a pdf document was open on another tab. I would like to get a fix for this so I don't have to keep closing open pdf documents in order to scroll with the touchpad while on other tabs. Thank you

    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

  • The album artwork on my iTouch looks correct when I am scrolling through, but when I play a song the album artwork shows an incorrect image.  How do I fix this?

    For example, when I am looking through my albums, the artwork is right.  When I click on an album and play a song, the album artwork is incorrect.  When I go to iTunes and try to look at the artwork, it is correct.  What do I do?

    A couple of other possibilities:
    The CD is dirty / damaged / suffering from "CD Rot" - sometimes CDs may seem to play fine on a CD player (or using the CD-player function of a PC) but will not transfer correctly to a computer - this is the result of the way that CD players auto-correct the datastream from the CD where PCs, when reading the audio CD as data, do not.
    Enabling the error correction function in iTunes import may alleviate if not fully resolve this
    Use an alternate tool to extract the audio from the CD - Exact Audio Copy is probably the best out there, as it can be configured to attempt multiple reads of every audio sample on a CD to get a consistent result.  Then import the resulting files into iTunes.
    You don't say whether this is specific to one CD as in the original poster's case, but the "crackling" symptom has affected a significant number of users of the 64-bit version of iTunes 12.1.0.71 - these are mostly addressed in the most recent update (12.1.1.4), but if nothing else works it may be worth trying this alternative installer: iTunes 12.1.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)

  • My webpage with parallax scroll effects flickers in internet explorer 11. How can I fix this?

    My webpage with parallax scroll effects flickers in internet explorer 11, when using the mouse wheel or the arrows in the scroll bar - Parcerias | Agrupamentos de Escolas | EEA | DGE
    It works fine in firefox, chrome and safari.

    Thank you

    Hi FilipaG,
    Unfortunately there isn't much you can do. This is a performance issue with IE 11, so the only current way to make the site less jittery is to have fewer effects or group objects with the same effect then apply the motion to the group. Sorry for the inconvenience. You can also post in our feature requests section how you'd like to see easing added to Muse, because that would move all of the objects together much more smoothly than they do currently. Chrome and Firefox in particular have great built in easing so these sites usually look better on them.
    Thanks,
    Dana

  • Why does the mouse scroll no longer work in Firefox 4?

    I upgraded to Firefox 4 and suddenly my mouse scroll no longer works. It works fine for other programs and IE also Chrome, just not Firefox 4. How do I fix this? If this cannot be fixed, how can resort back to the old version?

    Spoke too soon. It worked fine for 10 minutes then died again. Closed and re-opened Firefox and it's working again. If this keeps up I will end up back with Chrome or IE. Way too inconvenient for me to stay with a browser and lose this functionality.

  • TS3092 my wireless apple mouse works to move the arrow but will not scroll. how can I fix this?

    my wireless mouse moves the pointer but does not scroll, how can I fix this?

    Check the setting in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > mouse options.. button > check scrolling.
    If you have an older mouse with the trackball, it might just need cleaning.  Turn the mouse over and rub the trackball vigorously on paper or microfiber cloth.

  • Why is my IBM Scroll button no longer working with the new Firefox?

    I just downloaded the new Firefox onto my IBM ThinkPad. This laptop has a center button for the mouse that I have been able to use to scroll down webpages on the previous version of Firefox installed on my computer. However, with the new version it no longer works. Is it because there is a setting that was automatically programed and is something I can change or is the permanent feature of the new Firefox. If it is the latter, then I am disappointed and would rather use the older Firefox version.

    Re-installing Pages through Appstore has fixed the problem.
    Thank you

  • Middle mouse button doesn't work in Firefox

    On my Lenovo Thinkpad the middle mouse button, that scrolls a web page up and down, doesn't work in Firefox only. In all other programs (including IE) the scroll function of the trackpoint middle button works fine, but in Firefox not at all. One solution described at Firefox is to edit a pref for a "ui.trackpoint_hackenabled" parameter, and I did change that value to 1, and restarted Firefox, but NO luck.
    I'm using 4.0.1.

    Nobody got any insights?
