Os x 10.8.3 bootcamp reverse scroll direction

I just installed 10.8.3 on my retina and the new windows 8 driver with a fresh bootcamp install. Good news is the bluetooth works to keyboard and trackpad, both my external thunderbolt monitors work, the resolution is now correct at 2880x1880.
Only problem so far is I can't figure out how reverse two finger scroll up and down on my track pad. It wants to go as if I'm rolling a mouse ball.
how can I reverse that? I don't see anything in bootcamp preferences / trackpad to do that.

As far as I know, natural scrolling is only for OS X, not for Windows, unless Apple has added this feature with the most recent drivers. However, if you want the natural scrolling, you can try using Trackpad++ > http://trackpad.powerplan7.com/

Set reverse scroll direction for guest account

Is there a way to set the default scroll direction to reverse scrolling for the guest account?
Thanks.

No: all settings are restored to default when the guest logs out. But you could create a managed account for visitors, with suitable restrictions, then that would hold any setting you made. Of course its contents won't be deleted when they log out, which can be an advantage or a disadvantage depending on circumstances.

In Win7, I've set all flipflopwheel registry entries to 1, reversing scroll direction - everywhere except Thunderbird! (Even works in Firefox) Ideas?

I'm a Mac user in a Windows world. I like "natural scrolling". I've reversed all the windows scrolling by changing all instances of "flipflopwheel" in the registry. This fixed it even for low-level software like Synergy, which lets me use my keyboard and mouse across both my Windows and Mac computers.
Any idea why Thunderbird would be reading the mouse directly, and if that's really what's happening, how to change it's interpretation of the scroll wheel to match the rest of the OS?

Right-click on the YouTube video. Does it say About HTML5 or About Flash Player?
If it says About Flash Player, then go to the mixer, open the detailed view to see all the sliders, and make sure that the volume for the Flash Player slider is not muted.

[solved] Reverse scrolling direction ala Mac OS X Lion?

I spend a big portion of my time on Macs, and the balance in Linux. I have come to really like the "natural" scrolling implemented in Mac OS X Lion (enough so that I have found a way to have it on my one Snow Leopard box, as well). Is there a way to do the same with GNOME 3 and GNOME shell under Arch?
Thanks in advance.

Stop reverse scrolling with microsoft mouse

Please accept my apologies if this question has already been asked and answered. I searched but could not find the answer in this forum. I recently purchased a Mac Mini computer running Lion OS. I use a microsoft mouse and keyboard that came complete with drivers for the MAC. I am experiencing two intermittent problems relating to mouse action and cursor.
1. The first problem is with reverse scrolling. Somehow, and I can't recall how, I managed to disable reverse scrolling. However, intermittently my computer reverts to reverse scrolling. Often I am able to fix the problem by rebooting the Mac. On other occassions this does not work. I have researched the issue online and have read the articles about turning off reverse scrolling in the mouse and track pad sections of System Preferences. However, this option is not available presented when I access these windows.
2. The second problem deals with cursor size. I use my mac mini a a media center connected to my TV. To make the navigation easier I have made the cursor as large as possilbe using System Preferences - Universal Access - Mouse Tab. However, frequently the cursor reverts back to the minimum size on its own. When I access the appropriate section of System Preferences I note that, according to my configuration, the cursor should be maximized. I can re-establish the maximum size my making the cursor smaller and then making it bigger or conversely by rebooting the Mac.
Any assistance on these two matters would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Wayne

I have issue #1 randomly reversing scrolling direction, what is wrong? My system Mac Mini with Microsoft Mouse / Keyboard.

Reverse scrolling in iPhoto

Lion reverse scrolling works in Safari and iWork apps, but not in iPhoto. Is there a way to make it work?

When they introduced Lion, Apple changed the direction of scrolling that results from a two finger swipe on the trackpad. When you swipe down, the page moves down the way it does on an iPhone. In Leopard and earlier systems, the page moves up when you swipe down. Although we got used to it, this is really counter-intuitive. Apple made the change in Lion to make it easier for people who are migrating to the Mac from the iPhone and iPad. When I wrote my question, scrolling in iPhoto was behaving the way it used to under Snow Leopard. I have since done some maintenance on the system and iPhoto is once again scrolling as it should. I have no idea what made it misbehave.
Thanks for the reply.

Mac OS X Lion seems to have reversed my default scrolling direction.

Just installed Lion, so far so good, except that scrolling has reversed directions - that is to say twin-finger scrolling in an upwards direction causes a downward scroll on the page and vice versa; twin-finger scrolling in an leftward direction causes a right-direction scroll on the page and vice versa. Lion has essentially 'reversed' my default scrolling rules.
Sys Pref does not seem to be able to change it back. Can anyone help?

Hello:
The answer you got from the previous poster is correct. With OS X 10.7, Apple reversed the scroll direction.
I have been told (and it makes sense) this was done to make a Mac behave in the same way as an iPhone and iPad. From here, that seems to be true. I did find that one gets used to the reversed direction quite rapidly - especially if you have an iPad

OS X 10.6.8 Reverse Scrolling ???

OK...I understand the logic behind Apple's decision to "reverse" the scrolling direction in Mountain Lion. What I don't understand is why I now have to use multiple devices (iMac with mouse & OS X 10.6.8, MacBookAir with trackpad and OS X10.6.8, iMac with trackpad and OS X 10.8, iPhone) all with various scrolling directions. My OS X 10.6.8 machines need to come into the iPhone scrolling world and offer "reverse scrolling" as a preferences setup option. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the latest OS X 10.6 does not offer "reverse scrolling"......is that correct? Really? You're kidding!
By the way, Apple, retro-engineering Mountain Lion to "reverse scroll", is not the answer. You must also allow 10.6 and other OS X's to behave like an iPhone (and Mountain Lion).
Cheers,
BottomFeedr

Yes, 10.8 with trackpad can be set up to scroll as 10.6.8 with trackpad. But if a user were to do that, those machines would scroll opposite that of an iPhone. 10.8's "reverse" scrolling was introduced so that a 10.8 machine would behave in a fashion similar to that of an iPhone. I wish to have all my devices scroll like an iPhone. Therefore, I'd like my 10.6.8 trackpad machines to reverse their scrolling...not the other way around.
My 10.6.8 trackpad device:
Apple>System Preferences>Trackpad>
The available options/settings include no fewer than 15 variables. Only one of these mentions anything about scrolling, and that doesn't include a reverse option.
Of course I checked System Preferences before I posted. As you said....duh.
Can anyone else offer a solution?
(My appologies to the community. I really didn't mean to offend.)

Reverse Scrolling of G580

Hi Guys,
Just got a new G580 Lenovo and im already getting headaches.
Im assuming thanks to windows 8 the scrolling has turned "natural" and decided to reverse itself which if i didnt have to use many different PC's for work id just plain suck it and get used to it but i can see myself getting irritated at forgetting when i should be reverse scrolling and when i shouldnt.
How can i disabled this? I've checked the standard Synaptics settings and i get the option to have vertical scrolling on, or off. Thats the extent of the settings i get.
Its using Synaptics Touchpad V7.5 (Driver version 16.2.10).
Link to image
And whilst im posting, has anyone successfully installed windows 7 on a default pre-installed windows 8 laptop?
After giving up on getting the machine to attempt to boot from CD i got a Windows 7 Enterprise CD onto a bootable USB however only to find that the OS partition is GPT and not MBR (So the install threw a fit and said no). Without trashing the entire drive from another machine has anyone formatted the _OS partition and managed to get windows 7 on it? Dont really want to wipe the entire drive as ill lose the recovery partitions.
Cheers guys and Merry Christmas!

hi Rbrewer,
Welcome to the Lenovo Community.
Reverse Scrolling is a feature on certain Synaptic Touchpad Device, if you have already tried to install the Touchpad Driver v16.2.10.3,try to upgrade the Synaptics Touchpad Driver to v16.2.1. If it doesn't work, disabling this feature is not currently possible (unless you uninstall the Touchpad driver itself and use the windows generic driver)
In downgrading Windows 8 to Windows7, you will need to convert the GPT partition to MBR in order for you to install Windows 7. There are tools on how to convert GPT to MBR without losing data, check the following:
1. Gdisk, discussion here.
2. Disk Management Tool, discussion here.
For all other, the general way to convert GPT to MBR is this guide.
Goodluck!.

Reverse the scroll direction for my track pad

i just updated to mavericks and i can't figure out how to reverse the scroll direction for my track pad

? Are you saying that the option isn't there? Mine is in the "Mouse" section.
See this:

Changing the scrolling direction for my mouse will change the scrolling direction for my trackpad

I really like the new feature "natural scrolling" with the trackpad, but when I use my mouse, the scrolling direction is reversed as well. So I tried to change the settings of my usb mouse (razer diamondback) from "natural" back to the old scrolling. Unfortunately it also changed my trackpad settings back to normal.
Is there a possibility to use my mouse scrolling the "old style" while using the "natural scrolling" with my trackpad ?

I've said a very similar thing in this thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3290807?start=15&tstart=0
The thing is that someone from Nova Scotia posted a link in that thread to "Scrollreverser", and it looks like that tool can actually de-couple mouse and trackpad scrolling.
I've sent the proprietor of the app an e-mail asking if it will also work in Lion... If the answer is yes, this might do you fine...

Reverse clip direction-nothing in advanced menu(as stated in Help)

help.
just installed this hd 6.
previously i was able to reverse clip direction---advanced>reverse clip direction.
in imovie hd6 the help topic states to go to advanced after clip is selected. but there is no "reverse clip"command.
where and how do i do this task.
please answer.
thanks
stuart0 211

Click on the 'Editing' tab below the clips pane on the right hand side, then on the 'Video FX' tab at the top, and scroll down to 'Fast/Slow/Reverse'.
As with most awkward things, this is described (..if you scroll right down to the bottom, under iMovie 5 / iMovie HD specific..) in Dan's brilliant "Unofficial" iMovie FAQ.
That should be everyone's first port of call for concise answers to iMovie problems!
By the way, Welcome to iMovie Discussions!

Reverse path direction in Illustrator CS5

I have started to use Illustrator CS5 for outline drawing this year. I purchased the license time ago, but I always preferred to use FreeHand for outline drawing (I design lettering and typefaces).
Now that FreeHand is unfortunately become a bit too obsolete for the new operating systems architectures, I have familiarized myself with Illustrator and was going decently, but I have been unable to find a solution to this problem yet:
Whenever I need to reverse the direction of a path (for various reasons), I can’t seem to find a way to do so, unless of course it’s a composed path (from two closed paths). I need to perform this operation. At work, I use InDesign CS6 and I have seen Adobe has introduced it in its palette, but I can’t find it in Illustrator CS5 or CS6.
Many thanks in advance to all those who could help me…

You can temporarily make the simple path into a Compound Path (same thing as a FreeHand Composite Path) and then the reverse direction buttons in the Attributes palette will work. But like most everything in Illustrator, it's needlessly cumbersome:
Select the single path (Object>Compound Path>Make).
Select a portion of it with the white pointer. (Deselect, then click a segment or an anchor; don't altClick it to select the whole path, because Illustrator doesn't know the difference between a path's being selected as an object, as opposed to merely having all its anchors selected.)
Click the Reverse Direction button in the Attributes palette.
Deselect. Then select the whole path (sigh).
Object>Compound Path>Release.
Ridiculous, isn't it?
The scripting object model provides for a path direction setting (polarity), but interface doesn't provide access to it on normal paths. This simple script will reverse the polarity of currently selected paths:
//Begin Script
for(i=0;i<activeDocument.selection.length;i++){
if(selection[i].polarity==PolarityValues.POSITIVE){
selection[i].polarity=PolarityValues.NEGATIVE;
}else{
selection[i].polarity=PolarityValues.POSITIVE;
//EndScript
Of course, while drawing glyphs, you'll soon run into the lack of other FreeHand no-nonsense features, such as extend/retract individual handles. And there's nothing you can do about the lack of Connector Points which ensure tangency between straight and curved segments.
What font program are you using? FreeHand's progenitor, Fontographer, from which its path drawing interface was derived (and which pre-dated Illustrator), is now owned and sold by FontLab. I would (and do) use that.

How do you reverse the direction of a build in title?

I use Final Cut Pro X, and for a build in title, how would you reverse the direction? For example, One of the build in titles is called "Knock Out", and the words come into the frame away from you, but how do you make the words go the other way, and go towards you?
If you don't understand what I mean, that effect is called "knock out", and you can look at it in your application.
I know how to reverse clips, but that does not work with transitions/title effects
Thank you!

This particular title does not offer many options for customization; in particular, no option for working the other around, as you want.
I can think of a few options for this. The easiest is would be to make the title by itself into a compound clip; but I have just tried it and it does not work, because the blend mode of the text (stencil alpha) does not propagate down inside a compound clip. (If it did, you'd just have to reverse the compound).
Another option is to open a copy in Motion and make changes there. If you have Motion, this will allow you to adjust as you wish.
Yet another easy way may be to "construct" this title yourself right in FCP X.
Insert the "Custom" title, adjust the text font, change the blend mode to Stencil Alpha, and keyframe the scale.
