Sound preference pane no scroll bar

On both my intel Macs running 10.5.4, the sound preference pane has no scroll bar for the alert sounds so that it appears that there are only 4 alerts whereas the full complement IS actually there but you sort of have to drag on one of the highlighted alerts to get to the hidden others. Would be much easier with a scroll bar.
Can someone else confirm that this is so on their Mac?

Oops, my mistake.
It is the known behavior of Mac OS X not to display scroll-bars correctly
when there is not enough screen real-estate for all four buttons and the
bar area. TinkerTool explicitly warns about this setting ("Small scroll bars
may not work correctly if there is not enough space to display all four arrow
buttons.")

  • Uninstalled sound flower but is still showing in the sounds preference pane

    Hi, I uninstalled a program called sound flower, but it's selection is still showing in the sounds prefrence pane, can you tell me how to remove it, thanks.

    I was trying Dictation on Mountain Lion, but I couldn't make it work with Soundflower installed (it seems it doesn't works with ML). So I uninstalled it (downloading the installation .dmg and clicking the uninstaller). It removed everything from my computer but the mic still don't work properly.
    I go to Sound Preferences and the microphone receives every tap I do on the keyboard (it's a MacBook Air btw), but not my voice. I need to be next to the keyboard and talk there.
    As you can see, there's no Sounflower options anywhere.

  • I'm trying to plug an external audio device (tape deck) into the audio input. In the sound preferences pane I'm only getting the built in microphone as an option. I tried restarting without effect. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    For some reason the option to select switch the audio port to 'input' is not coming up.
    Thanks.

    If your computer is running Snow Leopard, and is not at 10.6.8, you could use
    Software Update to get final Combo Update 10.6.8 v. 1.1 for Snow Leopard.
    Aside from that (you may have already done so) here is a free-running
    application that may help your line-in audio, by the name of LineIn
    http://www.rogueamoeba.com/freebies/ and it suggests possibilities.
    There also are USB input methods using those for audio; not sure what
    is still available, a few great ones no longer were. One from Belkin a few
    years ago, called the iMic, offered great options over USB.
    Hopefully the free application can help.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • How can I get sound on my MacBook Air after installation of Lion? "No output devices found" on the system preferences pane of my MacBook Air.

    Since installing Lion on my MacBook Air, I get no sound and ITunes playback doesn't move. The Sound Preference pane states "No output devices found." The Bluetooth connection to a WiFi speaker works, so it must be a software problem. Anyone?

    For sound, try the audio output port and connecting to the RCA  audio input ports on your Pioneer receiver.  Use something like this:

  • How do I keep the scroll bar from disappearing in the Mountain Lion update 10.8.5?

    When I got the prompt yesterday that there was an update for Mountain Lion I went ahead and downloaded it, and it is awful!  The scroll bar on the right side of the screen disappears too quickly now to use it easily, and is difficlut to get back, which adds extra steps (clicking on the down arrow while the cursor is in the scroll area then quickly clicking the arrow cursor while it is in the temporary scroll down bar.  Or else this is from a Firefox update I did NOT actually download, but indications when I started up my computer today are that it did download somehow by itself without my permission, as there was a notice that some of my Mozilla ad-ons might not be compatible with this version of Firefox.  I couldn't understand that since it should have been the same version of Firefox I used yesterday!  I know I didn't download the new Firefox because the pop-up box went away very quickly each time it came up so I never did click on it.  Does anyone know if the change in scrolling is a Firefox update or the OSX 10.8.5 update?  I HATE it and want it off, but don't know which one is the culprit nor how Firefox updated itself without my consent.  Aaaarrrggghhh!

    Make sure that "Always" is selected.

  • Scroll bar missing on opening any website in firefox nightly 38.0a1

    Vertical Scroll bar missing on opening any website in firefox nightly 38.0a1

    On Mac the scroll bars can be hidden and only have them show when you scroll the page so you can see the current scroll position.
    The idea is that a touch pad is used that doesn't require the scroll bars to be visible and thus have more screen estate for the browsing area.
    You can make the scroll bars always visible:
    System Preferences > General > Show Scroll Bar > Choose "Always"
    You can try to delete the xulstore.json file in the Firefox profile folder.
    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

  • How to get a scroll bar to the applications popup by default?

    How to get a scroll bar to the applications popup by default when clicked the applications folder from the dock? If I have so many applications that they do not fit in the default area, I have to find out myselft that I have to scroll the content before the scroll bar appears. This leads to "where is my missing applications questions" by the novice users with Mountain Lion.

    System Preferences > General > Show scroll bars.
    Click the button by the side of "Always".

  • Can't get scroll panes to scroll

    Hi,
    I have tabbed pane which have scroll panes which have (for each) a pane that has a known number of JLabels. The size of the tabbed pane and scroll panes are fixed, but the size of panes that are contained in them changes. I expected that when the size of panes become bigger then the size of the scroll pane a scroll bar would occur and do its job. But that does not happen. I use setSize method to set the size of the panes(not the scroll panes), which works fine.( I displayed the pane in a seperate window to check if it works.)
    Have any ideas what I am missing?

    My apologies.
    I am using NetBeans, and didn't change the code it created for GUI. I am inclined to beleive that it does not make errors when creating GUI components.
    Here is the method I use to populate one pane.
        public void listOffline() {
            // Clear the panel and set its size.
               // offlinePanel is the pane inside the scrollpane.
               offlinePanel.removeAll();
            offlinePanel.setSize(200, 20*offlineList.size());
            //offlinePane.setSize(200, 20*offlineList.size());
            // I need a list of strings to display.
            String[] ListString= arrayToStr(offlineList);
            int au=0;
            JLabel tempLabel;
            // Populate the list.
            for(int ii=0; ii < ListString.length; ii++) {
                // Add item number.
                if (ii%2 == 0){
                      tempLabel = new JLabel((ii/2 + 1) + ". " + ListString[ii]);
                 else {
                      tempLabel=new JLabel(ListString[ii]);
                offlinePanel.add(tempLabel);
                tempLabel.setLocation(20,20*ii);
                tempLabel.setSize(200,20);
                // Name is in blue.
                if(au%2==0) {
                    tempLabel.setForeground(java.awt.Color.BLUE);
                // Address is in green.
                else {
                    tempLabel.setForeground(new java.awt.Color(0,140,0));
                    tempLabel.setText("ftp://" + tempLabel.getText());
                    final String temp = tempLabel.getText();
                    // Open address in default browser if clicked.
                    tempLabel.setCursor(java.awt.Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(12));
                    tempLabel.addMouseListener(new java.awt.event.MouseAdapter() {
                        @Override
                        public void mouseClicked(java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt) {
                            try {
                                Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[]{"cmd", "/c", "start " + temp});
                            catch (Exception e) {
                                JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Error opening browser.");
                au++;
            ListString = null;

  • Where is scroll bar for notes? can you change sorting for notes to A-Z?

    is there a scroll bare for NOTES in icloud? Can you change sorting to A-Z?

    Are you asking about viewing your Notes on https://www.icloud.com/#notes  on a Mac?
    In Safari the scrollbar will appear, when you start to scroll the note list with a trackpad or a mouse.
    In the Notes.app the scroll bar will always be visible, if you enable the scroll bars in System Preferences > General > Show Scroll Bars > Always
    In the Notes-app the list can be sorted by title from the "View > Sort by" menu, but on icloud.com I do not know of a similar option.

  • Remove/Hide scroll bars in scroll panes.

    Hi all,
    I am pretty new to action script. I am building a photo gallery and I am loading the thumbnails from an XML file into a scroll pane dynamically. As the scroll pane fills up, it gets wider to accomodate the thumbnails. There is one row, and eventually, I want to have the user be able to mouse left or right and have the scroll pane scroll, versus clicking on the bar or the left/right arrows. However, in order to accomplish this, I need the scroll bars to disappear!
    Is there anyway to either remove or hide both the x and y scroll bars on a scroll pane? My scroll pane is called: thumbPane.
    Thanks in advance!
    -Rob

    Hello friend,

    THANKS.

  • How can I retrieve the scroll bar in Home applications using OS 10.6.8?  I don't have a general section after clicking on System Preferences.  Thanks.

    I have deleted the scroll bar twice in 4 years and I still don't know how to set it back.  Please help.

    hi Samberl
    thanks a lot for the fast reply.
    I was dragging folders from main folders on the laptop-desktop  onto the external drive icon - to copy them across....
    Your suggestion sounds very promising -  I didn't know about 'cloning'.
    Yes the idea is to backup the laptop -    I thought I would just move it all now, new - and then keep saving/dragging physically   across to the new drive myself each day or two...
    Would this be the sizeof the internal hard drive = c.500 gb  ?   =   under the HD icon on desktop is written  : 
    " 499.76gb , 311.5 gb free  " 
    I can erase and start agin on the new external drive - so this plan is to make two partititions, rather than the one at present, and make one of them 500 gb ?
    I have found CCC [carbon copy cloner] googling - looks good.
    When CCC site says it backs up  the hard drive - would this  mean all my files  [over 100 gb] that are mostly  in folders on the desktop, plus the others in itunes, iphotos etc found in the HD icon,  would all copy across successfully [wherever they are in the computer ]  ?
    thanks again, hope you can clarify these things and then I will go for it. 
    It would be great and amazing if this 'lack of permission' message doesn't show up in the process of doing this ccc transfer - hopeful!

  • My battery icon has disappeared from my menu bar at the top of the screen and the energy saver preferences simply says 'Could not load Energy Saver preference pane'

    My battery icon randomly disappeared a few months ago from my menu bar and i have been unable to make it come back. After researching solutions online it soon became clear that all of the suggestions needed me to go into the energy saver preferences in the setting however the icon for the energy saver preferences is no longer there and whenever i click in the blank space where it used to be, it simply says 'Could not load Energy Saver preference pane'. As a result of this i never know how much battery i have left and so i just have to wait for the machine to die each time
    The mac in question is a 13 inch 2012 macbook air that is running on OS Mavericks at the moment.
    Any ideas on how to get the icon back?
    - I recently discovered by accident that before i actually log into my account on my mac, when i am still on the page that contains the options of guest user etc. at that point the battery icon is displayed in the top right hand corner? Why is it that the icon exists there but not once i have logged it? Thankyou for any advice.

  • I have osx 10.6.8 and have lost the side scroll bars on Safari.  When I go into System Preferences there is NOT an "always" option for displaying Scroll Bar.  How do I get it them to display again?

    When using Safari the scroll bars no longer appear on the right hand side.  When I go into System Preferences the option to Always have the scroll bars displayed is NOT there.  How/Where do I go to get these to show all the time?

    It SHOULD be under the General tab in System Preferences:
    (Note that this is a Mavericks screenshot, but it should be there in Snow Leopard, too, if indeed you're still running 10.6.8 as your profile says)

  • Want to remove scroll bar from navigation pane in Web Template

    HI All,
    I have a report created in WAD.When I am using navigation pane, I get a scroll bar there.
    I want to remove that scroll bar from navigation pane.Tried increasing the height in the property of same but nothing is helping.
    The expanded option should be ON and do not want to group characteristics shown in nav. pane.
    Please suggest, if there is any other way to do that.
    Thanks,
    Anu

    Why do you want to expand it? Generally when you click on Nav pane, it should show the assigned chars under it. No scroll bar comes up with  below settings:-
