Scroll bar only scrolls the top ~300 pixels

The latest update of Nightly is unusable. The scroll bar only changes the top 300 pixels or so of the page. Then the links do not work in the bottom portion, and you can't see the entire page.

Missing VERTICAL SCROLL-BAR only in the TV Shows tab.

*I keep losing my vertical scroll-bar while looking at Television shows.* I believe this might be related to the Windows Vista 64-Bit platform.
What-ever it is, this problem has been occurring since iTunes version 9.x for sure. I am *currently on iTunes version 10.0.0.68* with the same annoying "find the vertical scroll-bar" problem. I have reported my concerns to Apple, but their has never been a reply and the problem has +migrated beyond iTunes 9.x now.+
The following are all examples of how or when...
1. enter the "TV Shows" tab for the first time since I started iTunes.
( as in today, last hour, or just xx minutes ago. )
( of course just closing iTunes and restarting iTunes )
( has not constant result. )
2. just got done watching a television episode in a separate window.
3. just got done watching a television episode in the same or list window.
4. switched from one view style to another view style.
5. enter the "TV Shows" tab from another tab such as "Music" or "Podcasts".
The only way to get the scroll-bar back is to switch to another tab and then switch back to "TV Shows". This sometimes takes 5 to 6 switches before the scroll-bar returns. And of course, it might disappear again if any of the above 1-5 examples occur.
I do have a couple of screenshots for anyone to view, not sure how to post it as part of this post. If you desire, request the screenshots and I will e-mail them to you for your reference.

I also have this issue with the scroll bar in Mail since upgrading from Leopard to Snow Leopard. I Google it... and that is what brought me here, so hopefully someone knows what is going on as I was kind of hoping that 10.6.1 would have fixed this.

Why scroll postion sometimes at the top and sometimes at the end?

Thanks, R.Karuna, but it's so strange that in my test program, the scroll bar always appears at the top even if I put a lot of words onto the JTextArea and the size is much larger than the viewport. How come?
Also in my program, I need to put a lot of things onto a JPanel and and put it onto a JScrollPane, but I want the vertical scroll bar appear at the top after finished adding. I tried scrollRectToVisible, but it didn't work. What should I do? Thanks,
Lingma

Perhaps this snippet may help you:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
class ScrollBarTest {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 JFrame frame = new JFrame("ScrollBarTest");
 Container contentPane = frame.getContentPane();
 frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
 frame.setSize(400,200);
 JTextArea textArea = new JTextArea();
 StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
 for (int x=0; x < 20; x++) {
 sb.append("Was here "+x);
 sb.append("\n");
 textArea.setText(sb.toString());
 final JScrollPane sp = new JScrollPane(textArea);
 JPanel panel = new JPanel();
 JButton btUp = new JButton("Up");
 JButton btCenter = new JButton("Center");
 JButton btDown = new JButton("Down");
 btUp.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
 public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
 JScrollBar bar = sp.getVerticalScrollBar();
 bar.setValue(bar.getMinimum());
 btCenter.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
 public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
 JScrollBar bar = sp.getVerticalScrollBar();
 bar.setValue(120);
 btDown.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
 public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
 JScrollBar bar = sp.getVerticalScrollBar();
 bar.setValue(bar.getMaximum());
 panel.add(btUp);
 panel.add(btCenter);
 panel.add(btDown);
 contentPane.add(sp, BorderLayout.CENTER);
 contentPane.add(panel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
 frame.setVisible(true);
}Kind regards,
Hjembaek

What happens when the scroll bar moves to the bottom by itself?

When I am browsing, the scroll bar moves downward all of sudden to the bottom of the arrow. When you click on the scroll bar to move the page back to the top, it automatically moves back the scroll bar back to the bottom of the page. I have tried reloading the page, going forwards and backwards, and refreshing the page but it still does this problem. The only way to fix this problem is you have to close Firefox and reopen the browser. Is there a solution?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Your code is absolutely unreadable - even if someone was willing to
help, it's simply impossible. I do give you a few tips, though: If you
understand your code (i.e. if it really is YOUR code), you should be
able to realize that your minimum and maximum never get set (thus they
are both 0) and your exam 3 is set with the wrong value. SEE where
those should get set and figure out why they're not. Chances are you
are doing something to them that makes one 'if' fail or you just
erroneously assign a wrong variable!

I have added/embedded four videos on my website, but when I scroll down, the videos scroll in front of the top menu instead of behind as it should. I have tried changing layers, etc., and nothing works. Can you help?

I have embedded 4 videos on my website. It is a single page, scrolling site. When I scroll down, the videos scroll in front of the top menu bar, instead of behind it. I have tried changing layers, etc., and nothing works. Please help.
Thanks.
Paul W. Norman

Hi,
Kindly create a new layer, via the Layers panel:
Then, right click on the navigation bar, and choose Move to Layer > Layer 2
Ensure that Layer 2 is on top of the other layers.
Hope it helps,

Firefox Doesn't Load Any Website and Scroll Bar Switches to the Left Side of the Screen??

First let me say this is a work computer that I am using, so there is plenty of virus protection and firewall. I have always used firefox for all my casual internet browsing and work network needs. I recently updated to the latest version of firefox and that is when I started having problems. Almost any web page I go to wether it is my work intranet home page or a common site such as google mozilla will not finish loading the page. If I hit refresh or try to go to another site it gets wierd and the scroll bar switches to the left side of the screen and the page seems to be stuck loading. At this point almost nothing responds to any mouse clicks except for closing the firefox window. If I go to tools --> options it brings up a blank options window with only the "ok" and "cancel" buttons displayed. Help please, I don't like using IE, but right now that is my only option.

Vertical scroll bar disappears on the timeline?

After I use the vertical scroll bar once it disappears and I am unable to scroll. If I click the film strip on and off, it comes back. Is there a way to always keep the scroll bar visable on the timeline?

That has got to be a bug. Go to the Motion menu and Provide Motion Feedback... !
Otherwise, you can scroll with your mouse. I use a mouse with a scroll wheel, but I think I remember the magic mouse has a scroll gesture(?).
You can make the layers smaller by mousing over one of the lines in the layers list to the left of the timeline. The cursor should change to a double-pointed arrow. Click and drag the layers smaller.
You can open the timeline window wider by mousing over the Timeline top border, and click drag to make it larger.
I use this feature so rarely that I had never noticed before. When the scroll bar does appear, it's not "fully formed" either -- just a grey bar -- no resize controls on the ends at all.

The horizontal scroll bar appears in the middle on Safari.

Hello.
I have a problem of Ipad mini
A few user has the same prolem like me T.T when I checked other users is using Ipad mini or related Ipad series on web.
and I could not find solution for it,
The probelm is : the horizontal scroll bar position is changed as below image, the scroll bar appears in the middle on web page of Safari
after zoom the page out and moving.
How to fix this problem ?
I already did it with a few way to fix and it never fix in my side.
- Resotre factory mode : still happened.
- Turn off and on Ipad mini : still happened.
- Clear Cooke and data in safari setup.
If Clear cooke and data, it just disappeared on web surfing but this is only temporary way, I could meet the problem soon on web surfing.
Please help me to fix and share some information for it.
Thanks.

I am having the same issue. Went to the Apple Store in Boston and the Genius Bar escalated the problem to the Engineers and they could not even solve it. They needed me to send them an image of the issue. I went to another Apple store and the Genius there had much better problem solving skills. He used his own critical thinking and discovered that the horizontal scroll bar sits at the same height. The height is exactly where the split keyboard ends. If you take screen shots and compare...you will find they are all at the same height. He thinks since the keyboard is a new feature they havent worked out the problems yet...and we will have to wait for the update.
Ever since Steve Jobs has been gone the call to response for issues is getting increasing slower and slower. New products continue to roll out but they all have problems and bugs. Take Maps for instance...they still have not fixed all the issues (even with this 6.0.1 update). The Ipad mini I spend 700$ for and it is such a faulty product. For what I spent I would have thought I would have gotten a great product. I have all Apple products...phone, desktop, laptop, Ipad original, and Mini...but they have done me wrong over and over. It may take months for them to roll out the fix the way the compnay has been operating under Cook.
When will the fix come....I do not know... best of luck!

JScrollPane: Can the Vertical Scroll Bar go on the left?

Hope you can help,
Im using a JScrollPane within another one, i.e, I have a component inside a JScrollPane, and one of its components is a JScrollPane. This is fine and dandy, but the internal scrolled component gets pretty tall and wide, so people end up using the OUTER horizontal scroll bar to scroll to the INNER vertical scrollbar to scroll DOWN the inner component.
What would be really nice would be to have the INNER scrolled component to have its scroll bar on the LEFT to save the above hassle.
Is this possible with JScrolledPane?

In JScrollPane (jdk1.3)
public void setComponentOrientation(ComponentOrientation co)
Sets the orientation for the vertical and horizontal scrollbars as determined by the ComponentOrientation argument.
Parameters:
co - one of the following values:
java.awt.ComponentOrientation.LEFT_TO_RIGHT
java.awt.ComponentOrientation.RIGHT_TO_LEFT
java.awt.ComponentOrientation.UNKNOWN

TableView scrolling even when scroll bar is in the middle

All
If we have a table that has events being inserted into it constantly when I move the scrollbar half way down the table keeps scrolling so I can't fix
it on a certain row that I want to look at.

Has anyone else lost their scroll bars after downloading the newest version of IOS?

Has anyone else lost their scroll bars after downloading the newest version of IOS?

What does the iPhone/iPad OS have to do with Mavericks?
Mavericks does remove the scroll bars as they are not needed, but you can set them to show always in the General System Prefs.

How to see themes on full page of firefox like chrome and not only on the top bar

how to see themes on full page of firefox like chrome and not only on the top bar

Personas or Lightweight Themes are the ones that just put a background on the toolbars.
You can look for the real (original style) themes here:
: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/themes/
:and you should be able to easily identify them by their pictures. I would suggest that you pick a theme that is identified under the version information to also run in Firefox 8, so you will be able to continue when you upgrade to 6.0.2 and above.
I am on 6.0.2 and I would be shown 450 themes.
Another method is to install a style using the "Stylish" extension, specifically a global style is what you are interested in. There are 3,697 global styles which is one [http://userstyles.org/categories category] of styles. Styles are not programs but you can put up a background picture of your choosing or color areas. But instead of hundreds to choose from you have thousands and they are mostly variations of another style. One advantage of a style is that you can modify a style to suit yourself with little or no programming experience.

RIPPLE EFFECT when using mouse to click on scroll bar and scroll

Has anyone else had this problem? I have tried 4 new 24" iMac's and ALL FOUR do this! When you click on the scroll bar and scroll down or up, there is a definite "ripple" in the window of what you are looking at. It's as if you put a steel rod under a sheet and pulled it up and down. It only happens when using the mouse to click and scroll. Not with the track ball, not with the arrows, not with the keyboard. I updated Safari, tried using Firefox instead, installed all the OS updates, but it still happens. So far no one in Support has a clue. The display models at the stores didn't do it, but my guess is they are from an older shipment...so maybe this is an anomaly with imac's shipped after April 10.
Try it on your computer and see if it happens. If so, we need to all let Apple know there needs to be a fix.

HI,
Quit Safari.
Go here: MacintoshHD/Library/Preferences and locate this file.
com.apple.windowserver.plist
Drag that file to the Desktop. Launch Safari and see if the scroll functions as it should. If it's ok, drag that file to the trash, empty the Trash and restart your Mac.

When I try to use Firefox Browser on my Samsung Note 3, the screen comes up white after the orange bar runs across the top. It worked yesterday.

March, 9th, 2015 -- My Samsung Note 3 is on AT&T wireless, but I Have Xfinity wi-fi at home. Firefox browser worked yesterday & last night. Today when I search it comes up with a blank white screen after the orange bar runs across the top & never loads anything (words or pictures). When I open the tabs in the side bar, it shows the pictures for them, but still only loads a white page after clicking actual link. It will not sync the last few saved bookmarks with my computer. I made sure that I have the latest android version installed, but It still does this even after uninstalling & re-installing & restarting the phone. AT&T had an update a couple of days ago & I've already talked with their tech support with no resolution. I don't know if there is conflict with AT&T's update & current Android Firefox browser. Please Fix, thank you.

Yes, it does the same thing whether on wi-fi or 4G.
