"Natural scrolling" messed up in recent Yosemite update

I updated to a newer version of OSX Yosemite about a week ago, and ever since, natural scrolling has been working incorrectly. Now, my horizontal scrolling/gestures work properly according to natural scrolling, but my vertical scrolling is backwards. "Natural scrolling" is still checked in System Preferences. I'm on a 13-inch MBP Mid-2012.

Give bug feedback to apple at  http://www.apple.com/feedback/
or call apple support.
Apple does not monitor this site for bug issues so the bug will carry on until someone reports it.

  • Has anyone had issues with the most recent Yosemite update

    I installed Yosemite October of 2014 mainly because I needed to update itunes to continue to help my daughter maintain her music files. Anyway the reason hardly matters. My computer and Yosemite did not get along. Posted up a file of my computer condition for people to look at here and the basic recommendation was to delete this that and the other thing. So I did that and the computer worked somewhat better. However I really am not sure if it was working better because Apple had been making progress with Yosemite ironing out Yosemite bugs. I had not reinstalled any of the software that it was recommended I delete back in October. So I doubt that is an issue.
    Two weeks ago while updating, generally, a Yosemite update started downloading to my computer. It is now running 10.10.2.
    Since then Mozilla crashes about five times a day and runs very slowly most of the time. Wondering if there is anything I can do or should I just wait it out...hope for the bestv AGAIN. I am encouraged by the fact that over time from October to mid February, Yosemite and my computer kept getting along better and batter. Since the update I am more or less back to square 1 as far as general speed and functionality and behind the eight ball as far as Miozilla goes as it is crashing constantly.
    I also do not like how update files are identified in Yosemite. There are times when all you get is a notification that there are updates ready with no identification of what they are. Had I known that was a Yosemite update, I would  not have touched it. What is up with this no identification of update files? Trying to ambush us now because people are beginning to avoid their updates? Good grief Apple.
    Anyway....any ideas? Just wait it out? Hope Apple gets back on a path of bug fixes for Yosemite? Anybody with a quick fix for this one?

    Automatically checking for updates is not the same thing as automatically installing updates and even automatically downloading updates is not the same thing as automatically installing updates. If Apple has now decided to describe them and implement them that way ....that is a mistake!
    Here is what I have in my App store preferences although I repeat, I have never changed anything. What items are selected there are the items selected ions ago or defaulted in possibly with iTunes 12.0 installed and I was always in the past been given the opportunity to view any updates BEFORE They installed.
    "Automatically check for updates" is checked. That should not cause an issue of any kind. If it is that is a problem not of my making!
    "Download newly available updates in the background" is checked with an additional descriptive line of information that reads "you will be notified when the updates are ready to be installed" I was going to uncheck this. Although I did not ever go to this location and change my settings which leads me to believe that this is a default choice in Yosemite or iTunes 12.0 as this is not the way I am used to my updates either coming to me or being installed
    "Install app updates" is checked ...Really....with permission, without permission, with notification? What the heck does this line really mean? Going to uncheck this
    "Install OS X updates" IS NOT CHECKED
    "Install system data files and security updates" is checked. This is another one that I am going to uncheck
    "Automatically download apps purchased on other macs" is not checked
    This system clearly Installed an OS X update without even asking me if I wanted it installed regardless of the fact the box is not even checked. So I have no idea how it managed to do that when the check box for OS X updates is not checked. A big OS X screen came up as the thing started installing leaving little doubt what it was at the point of being too late to do anything about it
    There is an interesting element to the relationship between "Download newly available updates in the background" and "Install app updates". If you uncheck the former, a check immediately appears in the box for the latter and the box ix grayed out preventing you from making further changes. So your options are for updates to be downloaded in the background or have updates installed without prior notification. What the heck kind of a choice is that?                             
    I am going to uncheck all of these for the time being except "automatic checking" and "Download newly available updates in the background". The former  should not cause a problem and has never in the past caused a problem. Seems to me that I am forced to the latter for now. However to be perfectly honest i no longer have any idea what Apple is doing and I am not completely convinced that they know either.....not any more
    I am going to go to Apple Tech Support and get full descriptions from them as it appears possible that they have changed their definitions and descriptive materials with regard to update activity either in Yosemite or iTunes.
    Finally, this issue with automatic checking has nothing to do with Mozilla crashing five times a day in Yosemite. That is a separate problem and I guess I am just going to have to hope that Apple Yosemite bug fixes brings this back under control.

  • Applications start to freeze VERY OFTEN after recent Yosemite updates?

    I've been using Yosemite since open Beta and this only started to happen I think since the update before the official release update. I'm using a Macbook Pro Late 2013.
    It gets worse with uptime and resets when I restart the system. I have not tried too many applications because I don't use that many recently but Safari ALWAYS freezes when it happens, so does Chrome. I would be browsing and then all the sudden it's frozen I had to force quit it. If the uptime hasn't been very long usually I can restart Safari and keep going. But after two days or more restarting Safari will just cause it to immediately freeze after it reloads all the webpages again. I would have to restart OS X to fix.

    Hi Gongc, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Community!
    I understand that you are having some Safari performance issues after updating the operating system. One of the first troubleshooting steps that I would suggest would be looking at third-prty add-ons. Please use the attached article for information on uninstalling these add-ons if you have them.
    Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues

  • Hp5520 scan no longer works after Yosemite update

    My hp5520 has been working fine for both printing and scanning wirelessly from my iMac until the recent Yosemite update.  I can still print, but can no longer scan.  What is the solution for this?  Is there a driver update needed for Yosemite?  I need my scanner back....
    Thanks!

  • Illustrator tools dropdown is not working after the recent software update

    My Illustrator tools dropdown is not working after the recent software update. Any help would much appreciate.

    Same problem here.  I have a Mac with a recent Yosemite update.

  • Problem printing since Yosemite update.

    We run iMacs on 10.10.2.
    We run an HP 55100 Photosmart printer wirelessly from a BT Home Hub 3.
    The iMacs run on an ethernet via a router.
    This has been working fine for a long time but since the most recent Yosemite update we can't print until we reboot the home hub each time we turn the computers on. I've spent hours on the 'phone to BT Broadband experts but they don't know what is wrong.
    I don't know where to start. Computers? Hub? Printer? Anyone any ideas???

    What's the real model of the printer - Photosmart C5500 or 5510 Series or 5510d Series or what?
    Try Resetting the Printing System, then Add the printer again. (This forces use of latest driver, among other things)

  • Recent Security Update Kills Two Finger Scroll

    I have been using the two finger scroll option on my Powerbook G4 for quite some time now. After the recent security update I was unable to use it any more. At first I thought it had just reset the settings but when I went to check the box again (under trackpad in settings). I found that the setting had vanished entirely. Does anyone have any idea why this has happened or of any work-arounds that I can use. It seems like another apple attempt at making it's older machines obsolete so that people will by the newer ones. Very frustrating to say the least.
    Thanks

  • I am having Macbook Pro, I have recently tried updating my operating system to OS Yosemite, but after that its giving problem in connecting to Wifi. The error is "Connection Time out Occurred". Its getting connected by Ethernet cable.

    I am having Macbook Pro, I have recently tried updating my operating system to OS Yosemite, but after that its giving problem in connecting to Wifi. The error is "Connection Time out Occurred". Its getting connected by Ethernet cable.

    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved. Some of these steps are only possible if you have control over the wireless router.
    Step 1
    Turn Wi-Fi off and back on.
    Step 2
    Restart the router and the computer. Many problems are solved that way.
    Step 3
    Change the name of the wireless network, if applicable, to eliminate any characters other than letters and digits. You do that on your router via its web page, if it's not an Apple device, or via AirPort Utility, if it is an Apple device.
    Step 4
    Run the Network Diagnostics assistant.
    Step 5
    In OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and fix the issues listed in the Summary, if any.
    Step 6
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
    Step 7
    You may need to change other settings on the router. See the guidelines linked below:
    Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    Potential sources of interference
    Step 8
    Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
    Step 9
    Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).

  • How do I find recent software updates to my computer if I am running Yosemite with auto update

    How do I find recent software updates to my computer if I am running Yosemite with auto update

    Like what? Software updates are performed in the background if you haven't changed the default. Once done the old version is replaced by the new version wherever it resides.

  • Macbook Pro Mid 2012: Issues with Yosemite update, graphics, and hard drive.

    MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2012)
    Processor: 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory: 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
    I've used 192.8 GB
    Operating System: 10.10.1 (14B25) YOSEMITE UPDATE
    I've been experiencing problems with my Macbook Pro shortly after the two year mark of when I've purchased it. There are a few things that are going on. I recently verified my Macintosh HD disk through disk utility and it stated in red that there was an incorrect number of file hard links & then error: This disk needs to be repaired and to restart and then press "R". However, everything before that seemed to have passed. I have everything backed up on an external hard drive and use the time machine frequently. Another thing that has been happening, usually when I'm opening one my adobe programs, is that my screen will go white for a minute along with unidentifiable pink glitchy shapes that don't move. My computer has not been running like it used to and is running slow, freezing, and periodically going white --- as I just mentioned before. I just know that something isn't it right. I've been having to restart my computer by manually pressing the power button more than I've ever had over the past two years. I always work on my computer on a hard surface in a cool area & my fans seem to behaving okay. I also recently installed the Yosemite update for the mac sometime during this past November too and noticed slower running speed, more freezing, and longer times to boot up afterwards. Please speak up if you're experiencing problems with your 2012 Macbook pro too and especially after downloading the Yosemite upgrade. I don't see how it's in any way acceptable that I should have to deal with issues pertaining to my graphics card. Sorry for this post being a little all over the place.

    Hello brousch,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post I see that your Mac is spontaneously restarting whenever you see a certain animation on your screen.  This indicates your Mac is getting a kernel panic caused by that animation.  If you'd like to learn more about kernel panics, including how to troublshoot them, please take a look at the information in the link below.

  • Natural scroll for scrollbars as well as mouse

    Natural scroll moves the content instead of the viewport. – Great, I love it!
    However the scrollbars still move the viewport over the content. – This is confusing and muddies the otherwise great new way of scrolling.
    I would like for the scrollbar to act on the content instead of the viewport. And I would love it if I could just grab the content wherever and drag it, just like on a touch device.
    Is this currently possible, either with apple settings or with third party software?
    If not, what's the best way to suggest this as a new feature in an update?

    Thanks for the link. I posted this as a suggested improvement.
    Still hoping for a quick fix while apple thinks it over though.

  • MacBook 2009 10.6.8 not booting up after failed Yosemite update?

    Hi Guys,
    I have a 10.6.8 Snow Leopard 2009 model Mac and have recently tried updating to Yosemite. After restarting and going through the actual installation process, I received the error 'file system verify or repair failed'. I then tried restarting the whole process again to see if it would work, and again it did not. I then used Disk Utility after the error popped up (as I was still able to launch it from the install program) and when I tried to verify the disk, it told me I needed to repair it. The repair disk button was greyed out however, so I assumed I'd need to boot it in recovery mode in order to repair it.
    One big point to mention is that I DID NOT BACK UP MY COMPUTER BEFOREHAND. I know it was stupid not to before I tried to install Yosemite, but what's done is done.
    So my question is: how do I boot into recovery mode and save my mac?? Is there any way of reverting the whole Yosemite installation process and going back to Snow Leopard??
    Many thanks,
    Bill

    Do you have another Mac or access to one? Could use the optical drive of the other Mac in Firewire Target Disk Mode.

  • IPhone/iMac sync problem following Yosemite update

    I updated to Yosemite and have had multiple frustrating problems.  The most recent one is that when I synced my iPhone after the update, almost every single entry disappeared from my calendar, causing me to miss an important appointment.  When I compare my iMac calendar to the iPhone calendar now, I can see indications on the iPhone of items that correspond to the iMac items (little dot on the day on the monthly calendar), but when I click on the day there is absolutely nothing visible on the calendar.  And obviously no reminders going off, causing missed appointments.  On my iPhone calendar I have changed no settings at all following Yosemite update, and prior to update everything that was on my iMac calendar was showing on the iPhone.  I don't do iCloud, I just sync by physically connecting the phone to the iMac.
    My impression is overall that Apple is getting very lazy now that their market share is getting so huge.  Yosemite update has been a disaster for me.

    Sorry, on rereading I realise that the information is not completely clear.  The items that are missing are on the iPhone calendar.  The iMac calendar still has all the items that were on it before the Yosemite update.  What has gone wrong is that somehow the phone calendar is not being updated properly at sync; for some weird reason the display (and reminders) on the phone calendar were wiped out with the sync to the iMac following the Yosemite update.

  • My scrolling bar stopped working when I updated to firefox 3.6.9 and adobe flash 10.1

    Never had a problem before, but when I just updated to Firefox 3.6.9 my scrolling bar stopped working. It still works in vistas explorer and wordperfect, just not firefox.
    At the same time I updated to adobe flash 10.1 (I think). Whatever the latest version is.
    thnaks

    I have the same problem. I have never had a problem with Firefox before, and use it as my main browser. However recently, after updating to 3.6.8, its been crashing all the time. Up to 20 times an hour. Usually it occurs when I click a link from a Google search, or in Yahoo. Even if I send in a crash report and restart Firefox, it crashes as soon as the same page is brought back up, or the same link is clicked. I have also had it crash when completely idle. Its very frustrating as it is my favorite browser. I've resorted to using Google Chrome for the time being.
