Scrolling in msn and irc

Hi folks
Since my first thinkpad (too many years ago it was a 760LD I have had problems with scrolling in certain programs as for instance Live Messenger and irc programs as KVirc. As I still do with the newest - a T400s...
I believe it is in the windows driver for trackpoint and touchpad as the problem isn't there when running Linux. Nor is it there if you use Remote Desktop in windows. This way you can use a thinkpad to control another thinkpad and then you can scroll in those programs... 
But I have seen it work on other laptops - so why not with a Thinkpad too?
Otherwise I am very pleased with the Thinkpads and I think the T400s feels like something that may have had IBM stamped on it too... so it is going to replace my trusted T41 that has traveled most of the world and never missed a beat so: Thank you Lenovo - keep up the good work - and please solve above at a for you  comvenient time
Best regards from Denmark
Tina

I have this issue regularly inside: Mail.app, Preview.app and Finder.app - It occurs independently of each app. (E.g. one may still allow scrolling while another is "frozen".)
Additionally Preview.app does not snap to pages correctly as per 10.8
The immediate work around is to manually click on the scroll handle and move it, this seems to restore the functionality. Additionally, sometimes a subtle visual glitch is present, with the scroll handle being moved slightly to the right. (As if it's stuck in this position.)

  • I'm note a firefox geek, but ever since my friend told me to install NoScript I can not access my msn and hotmail page. It tells me that Java Script is required, what ever that is. What do I do next. Do I uninstall the No Script. Thanks Ed

    You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
    Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
    If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
    Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
    Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
    To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
    You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)].

  • My iPhone 5 won't stop scrolling through songs and I can't stop it please help !! :(

    My iPhone 5 won't stop scrolling through songs and I can't stop it please help !! :(

    settings - general - usuage - music - delete.   Then do a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    Then sync the music back via iTunes.

    There is no cancel button.
    I don't see a download all button that will download everything from iCloud anyway. The download all button that I see refers only to the particular artist or album that you select from the left had side. I see no download all button for TV Shows or Movies.

  • IChat, MSN and webcam support

    Hi all and specially the iChat Apple people here.
    I've bought a Mac Mini last weekend and i'm already disappointed. iWeb makes images too big (replacement any old webdesigh tools), Safari works with only 50% of the sites (alternative Firefox), iChat doesn't work with MSN and webcam (alternative Mercury), etc (what's left of the integration between the built-in applications?).
    Anyway, i'm in the iChat forum now.
    When is Apple going to make iChat MSN Messenger compatible and when is iChat going to support USB webcams?
    Thanks,
    Ton.

    "When is iChat going to support USB webcams?"
    You can use a USB webcam with iChat using a 3rd party
    application that can be found here:
    http://www.ecamm.com/mac/ichatusbcam/
    But does that work with the Jabber protocol?
    I think that Jabber doesn't support webcam in MSN transport, but i may be wrong there.

  • Smooth Scrolling Article, Anchors, and Static Navigation

    Hi!
    Quick question on a smooth scrolling article:
    Let's say I have a very wide article, roughly 30,000 pixels wide with lots of photos, info, etc.. Would it be possible to have a "floating" navigation on top of this wide article?
    Something sort of like this: http://i.gyazo.com/a3e5266bb08fcc7625710ff0bb0c86fa.png
    The article would of course continue via the smooth scroll style.. but those square buttons below: I know I could link them to smooth scroll to a certain % of the page, but what if I want them to be available down there regardless if I keep scrolling right? In a sense, a "fixed" navigation for the page.
    Thank you.

    I see. Hmm.. I bet one solution that would answer both the smooth scrolling, the navigation, and the memory problem would be:
    What if I have say 20 pages, that are horizontal format. Each one has the timeline at the bottom which links to the corresponding page, such as a month (Jan) for page 1.
    The client basically wants a long, seamless sequence of events in a timeline style where when you swipe left or right, they feel connected but have their own images, info, etc., but the background would be seamless. They want a way to navigate between each event via a timeline at the bottom.

  • Mouse will scroll right, left, and down not up. happens every once and a while.

    mighty mouse will scroll right, left, and down, but not up. happens every once and a while. have wiped with alcohol, but no help this time.

    As Barry says, wiping with liquids is not advisable.   However, with a similar problem this is how I approached it.
    1.   Disconnect the mouse.
    2.   Dampen (not soak) a cotton bud in alcohol.  (I prefer whisky).   Then squeeze between fingers to ensure it is not wet.
    3.   Rub the bud against the ball for a minute or so to ensure all parts of the ball have contact with the cotton bud.
    4.   Then rub vigorously on clean white paper for a couple of minutes in a figure of eight fashion and tap it every now and then.  I have seen quite large peices of fluff removed this way
    5    Allow twenty minutes or so for the alcohol to finally evapourate to ensure there is no moisture.
    6    Reconnect the mouse.
    Having said all this, after three years or so your mouse will probably need to be replaced anyway.   Apple appear to be moving away from corded mice and therein lies another problem.   My experience with the Apple charger, Apple batteries and other premium batteries has not been good.   Batteries seem to run down at a rate of 10% per day even though its use is limited to about three hours daily.
    You have been warned.

  • MSN and Video

    Anyone know of any programs for the Mac that support MSN and video? Was currently using Adium but it doesn't support video. I can't believe something isn't available since most of the world is on Windows and they all use MSN. I have family that want to send video and I can't find anything that will work with my new Mac.
    Any help would be appreciated...

    Yes, there is. It is called Skype no just joking.
    Try aMSN. It supports video. It didn't always work right for me. http://www.amsn-project.net/

  • Elements organizer scrolls too fast and jumps when an image is selected?

    Why does elements 12 organizer on new mac scrolls too fast and jumps all over?

    I have found this to be a problem as well. Like other products, the scroll speed should start slow, and only speed up if the user moves the cursor further outside the panel.

  • Keep resetting config but msn and bing return for homepage and default browser

    I use 7.0.1 ff. I have set homepage to 3 tabs one of which is igoogle.
    When I add a tab, the page opens with Bing as search engine. I have reset and modified settings using about:config more than 5 times filter for msn and bing, but it keeps getting reset with msn and bing. I never want them. My default is ff not IE. I have Norton identity safe and have checked the settings in Norton. How can I get rid of msn and bing permanently?

    Try:
    * [[Removing the Search Helper Extension and Bing Bar]]
    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar and do a search for <i>bing</i> via the Filter at the top of that page.<br />
    You can reset all <i>bing</i> related prefs via the right-click context menu to their default values.
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

  • MSN and Skype problems on 8320

    Hi,
    I am using 8320. I have been having problems with opening websites and accessing MSN and Skype (Yahoo Messenger works) recently. The technical officer from my ISP just solved my website browsing problem by doing a hard reset but MSN and Skype are still refusing to work. For MSN, I always to log in but right after that it says there is an internal error and I should try later. This has been going on for a couple of weeks so I don't think it is a server problem. I was also able to use Skpe one week ago. 
    What should I do now? The technical officer said I am left with my last option, which is to do a "wipe_handheld" (everything will be erased!!).

    you can try using another application for Blackberry
    that will allow you to connect to the MSN network.
    I don't know of any, maybe webmessenger something ?

  • Hi!  My magic mouse won't scroll in word for mac - but it scrolls in safari and outlook.  So frustrating!

    I just upgraded to OS X Yosemite and am using Microsoft Word for Mac 2011 version 14.4.5.  My magic mouse no longer scrolls in word - though I can click on things with the magic mouse.  And the magic mouse scrolls in safari and outlook.  Any thoughts?

    I had the same problem. I just quit Word and restarted and it worked. I tried with a new document just to try it at first and when that worked, I tried it on the document I was working on and it was fixed!
