My wireless mouse scroll doesn't function properly in Thunderbird?

Scroll wheel must be moved 2-3 times before it "'grabs" and scrolls at all, but then not precisely. This is the case both in the Inbox window as well as the message window.

Hi plr66
This forum is not the place to fix mouse issues. It is only for Thunderbird questions, how to's etc.
However, before you decide to get another mouse, I would check your Mouse properties first.
When you use your mouse, it sends message to computer on what to do.
If your mouse is not working correctly, see if it needs 'tweaking' of settings to improve performance.
You access this via the 'Control Panel' > 'Mouse'
There shoud be a 'Wheel' tab
Check settings to see if you can improve things.

Had this problem for quite a while but found a work-a-round. I click anywhere in the text I want to delete and insert any character. I am then able to block and delete any text I want to. It's been working great.

My apple wireless mouse scrolls in the opposite direction. When I scroll up, down, right and left it always scrolls the opposite direction. Can anyone help?

Hi Malky H.,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your mouse is not scrolling in the direction you are expecting, check this Mouse setting in System Preferences:
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Mouse.
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:
OS X Yosemite: Use an Apple Magic Mouse
Note that these steps apply to previous versions of Mac OS X as well.

My downloads-window doesn't function properly anymore, often it just stays blank, and the one in my taskbar doesn't turn green at all. Can you tell me how to fi

My downloads-window doesn't function properly anymore. It just stays white whenever I am downloading something. Only after downloading the same file once or twice more, it shows the progress of my download. The window in the taskbar -that should progressively turn green- doesn't show anything at all anymore. How can I fix this?

Note that there should only be a prefs.js file (Windows hides the .js file extension) and not a numbered prefs-##.js file.<br />
The presence of a numbered file indicates there there has been a problem with creating/updating prefs.js at some time and you can remove the numbered prefs-1.js file.<br />
If the main prefs.js doesn't have a current time stamp then you will have to delete that file as well and redo all customization settings in Options.
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing mode.

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).

Thunderbold with Macbook pro 13 some programs doesn't function properly

I have a macbook pro 13 early 2011 that I connect to my thunderbold 27 display. The problem I have is that some programs don't function properly. For instance, in the doxy pro software I can't select any of the options under(over) the send menu option. I see the menu and everything, but when I hold the mouse over one of the options it doesn't become highlighted. If I try to move the application over to the laptop display by draging it I can't "release', i.e. it sticks to the mouse pointer The only way to get out of the situation is to kill the software. This is not the only software that acts funny, Eclipse IDE is also affected.
Cheers,

Try this:
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

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

Mouse scroll wheel not working properly in ff5

Since upgrading to FF5 the scroll wheel on my mouse doesn't work properly in Firefox - it's works as normal in everything else, just not in Firefox.
When I try scrolling, the wheel clicks (it clicks when turned) 7 or 8 times before the window in FF will scroll, and even then it only scrolls 2 or 3 lines per click. In all prevous versions of FF it would scroll in the same way as it does in all other programs, ie it would scroll 6 lines per wheel click.
It's clearly an issue with FF5 as it only affects FF5 and is annoying enough to make me start using Internet Explorer, which I haven't done for some years.
Anyone else having this problem?

Sorry, this is not possible in the current version of Firefox, but we have an open bug report where we are tracking this issue here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=686228
With luck it will be fixed in a future version.

IMessage doesn't function properly after iOS 8 update

Looked everywhere for somebody with a similar problem but only came to find issues with group messaging, so here is my issue:
I have an iPhone 5C, 16GB with the brand new iOS 8 update.
Before iOS 8, I was able to use all the features of my phone to their full potential, including iMessage.
After about 2 days of having iOS 8, an issue presented itself, I couldn't iMessage only a handful of my friends.
Oddly enough, my iMessage has been acting slow, but still functioning for everyone else while the handful of friends I mentioned before cannot receive or message me using iMessage.
To clarify what happens:
When I click on my Messages app on my iPhone I use the above top-right plus sign to create a new conversation.
When I begin to type in their contact, I notice their name is gray. If this isn't an issue already, when I click on their name to create a new conversation, despite it being gray, it shows green instead of the official iMessage blue, which is the only way I can contact them.
I'd also like to point out that it does not matter whether I am connected to WiFi or using my AT&T Cellular data, iMessage just fails to function properly.
If it helps, the two people I have noticed this issue with have iPhone 4's running the latest iOS 7 firmware. I have been able to message another friend with an iPhone 4, which is a reason I think their phones aren't the issue.
Thanks!

I've had lots of problems with sending some messages as text messages and then other times as iMessages even though I have data and am signed into iCloud and am sending to another iPhone. Group messages are definitely problems with everyone having iPhones. It seems like it usually involves someone who hasn't updated to iOS8 yet. But it doesn't always mess up. It seems random for me and my friends and family who are having these same issues.

Mouse Scroll doesn't work somtimes only in firefox

My mouse scroll stop working in firefox after a few minutes of surfing on the internet, on other browsers or software programs I do not have this problem ! When I close and reopen firefox the scroll function works again a few minutes..
I removed and reinstall firefor without result.
Thanks for helping me

I apologize in advance if you receive multiple replies from me - I'm dealing with this problem so it might take a couple of shots at it :^)
gclauwaert:
I just posted something similar today (user: cispang, date: 12/14/2011, subj: "Firefox frequently loses almost all navigation..."). When this occurs to me, I also lose the use of the page up/down keys and the arrow up/down keys, but I am able to drag the scroll bar up and down to navigate the page. When you have a chance, could you read my post to see if you have the same set of conditions, and post a reply to my post?
Thanks,

Wireless mouse scroll wheel not working

Why is my wireless mouse scrolling backward

I upgraded to Lion. Now my mouse scrolls backward. Anyone know why?

That does not appear to be the usual Mouse prefs window in Lion. Don't have a clue why that would be.
This is what it looks like on mine -
However, the equivalent to the 'inverted/natural' choice would probably be the first item, "Move content...." - try unchecking that one.

I recently upgraded to 4.o, then reinstalled 3.6.17 (then upgraded to 3.6.18) & have since encountered many problems. Facebook doesn't function properly, and I cannot watch video on the NYT website. Please help!

I cannot make any comments on Facebook & I cannot view video on the NY Times website. On some other websites I cannot scroll through slideshows. This seems to be strictly a Firefox issue: none of these problems occur on Safari or Chrome.
I'm on a Mac OS 10.6.8. Everything worked before this change. To rectify, per instruction, I have cleared history, cookies & cache; updated Adobe flash; started in Safe Mode & tested all extensions; upgraded and tested all plug-ins and add-ons; created and tested new profile. I do NOT want to upgrade to 4.0 or 5.o. I've spent weeks trying to repair this to no avail; (it shouldn't be this hard. I've been a Firefox user since its inception, but Chrome is looking like my only alternative.) Can anyone please help?

In my case it seems that Firefox just doesn't "see" (or can't find?) the coupon printer application anymore after the FF update. (and yes, my add-ons are enabled - to answer the tech support people's first question).
For me, the coupon printer doesn't even show up in my Firefox "Add-Ons" list anymore. Is that what people typically see when they're saying the coupon printer "doesn't work" with FF? The coupon printer was visible on the add-ons list before my FF update, and now it's totally Gone! It seems that Firefox just doesn't "see" (or can't find?) the coupon printer application anymore since the FF update.
When I'm on the coupons.com site and I click "print coupons", it tells me I haven't installed the application. But it Is installed on my computer, I can see it in my folders, and it works on IE, so it's definitely there.
BTW - I have uninstalled/reinstalled the coupon printer application. I have tried all the suggestions on the Mozilla help/forum sites, as well as the Coupons.com web site. I have closed and re-started Firefox after the installation. I have also shut down and restarted my pc after installation. I tried installing the application with Firefox open, and tried it again with Firefox closed. I've even cleared out all my cookies/history associated with Coupons.com.
... I can't think of anything else to try, except for the "solution" of using IE for coupons.
If it Really is a problem on the Coupon.com end of things, do you think it's worth it if we bombard the coupons.com support team with messages saying they need to fix the problem? (or just a waste of time?) ;(

Workflow in document library doesn't function properly on uploaded documents

I have a document library with a few different content types. When documents are added to the library either via new or upload I want to run a workflow that numbers the documents (so contracts have a contract number & change orders have an order number).
The counters are in a separate list - one item for each counter, a last number and a calculated next number.
So for contract numbers the workflow gets the nextnumber for the counter and enters it into the contract number field of the current item before sending it back to the counter as last number.
The workflow is set to start on item creation and works just fine with new documents. However, it doesn't work on uploaded documents. In order to discern between the different content types I've set a field condition to recognize if the workflow should run.
When uploading documents the workflow runs before the field is set and therefore doesn't set the contract number.
I tried just setting a 5 min "wait" at the start of the workflow, but then the document fails to save.
Workflow:
Sorry it's in Norwegian, I can't figure out how to get the conditions and actions into English (all my buttons etc are in English)...
Any ideas on how to get the workflow to run properly in order to update the contract number?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you had a workflow in document library didn’t work properly.
I hadcreated a list called Counter1, created a library called
New&Upload, modified the view of the list, made it display the
ID of the list.
I created a simple workflow as below, selected “Start workflow automatically when an item is created”, it worked well without any issue no matter
Upload or New a document.
You can create a new workflow with a new library, then check whether it works.
You can also check the event log and ULS log to see if anything unexpected occurred.
To check event log, click the Start button and type “Event Viewer” in the Search box.
For SharePoint 2013, by default, ULS log is at
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS
You can check the ULS log by the methods here:
