Sticky Scrolling

Since the last OSX update I'm getting problem's when scrolling in Safari. If you scroll to the bottom of a web page, you cant scroll back up, its almost as if the page is stuck on the bottom. It doesn't seem to happen on all pages, seems fine for the first hour of using the computers, then it starts. Any ideas?

Mac OS X (10.5.2)
So you are running Safari 5.0.5 and Leopard v10.5.8?
Check Safari / Preferences - Extensions. If you have any installed, turn that off, quit then relaunch Safari.
Or, might be a third party Safari add on. Follow the instructions here for troubleshooting.

Sticky scrolling of an Apple page

Using Safari 2.0.4 and having loaded the following page completely...
http://www.apple.com/pro/
...scrolling down/up is very "sticky" when the five large thumbnails are visible in the window. At this point the CPU is working very hard - but I don't see anything complex for it to render. (Scrolling of other web pages is fluid.)
I have cleared History and Cache, "Open using Rosetta" is not checked, and the only plug-in I've upgraded/installed is Shockwave Flash 9.0 r28.
In case it's relevant, in QT prefs Advanced, Enable Flash is checked, and in Mime Settings, Images is set to "-" and Miscellaneous is set to " ".
...Any ideas please?

Hi Alancito, Welcome to Apple's Users Help Users Forums.
I think it is their page. I get the same stickyness at the top and picture part of the page. The bottom of the page and the window seem normal.
Relax.

Sticky scroll ~! common on all our machines! advise

all our machines use Firefox. Its eats a LOT of memory when running (252k right now when running) scrolling is sticky, worse then all other browsers. Tried online blogs about it, seem to be a common problem. Are you guys working on this and also working to reduce the amount of memory this uses?
Marc at KVMR FM RADIO Nevada City

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> 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.

Bootcamp w. XP Pro SP2: Ultra-slow "sticky" scrolling and graphics performa

Hi,
unpacking my Uni-MBP 15" today was unfortunately sofar the best part of owning a new Mac:
After installing and running Xp Pro Sp2 with Bootcamp, I'm quite disappointed:
Scrolling pages as well as general graphics performance is - sofar- horrible.
It also looks like there is no good driver easily available to correctly support the 2 graphics cards of the system - neither on the OSX DVD nor Apple support or Nvidia ( I tried all the downloads)
XP advanced display settings tells me that it doesn't know what cards are installed (set to an unknown Plug and Play VGA adapter).
I am sure there is somewhere a helpful post, but I couldn't find it - therefore:
HELP! How do I get decent graphics performance in XP with my MBP???
Thank you for your help!

Does anyone have a sticky iPhone since upgrading to ios8? Scrolling is rough in iTunes (horizontal album covers) and on the iPad it's much worse with photo and video albums! iPhone5s and iPad3 retina displays.

Lots and lots of questions
The new Photos app in OS X should address much of this - it greatly simplifies syncing stuff across machines. Apple has details on it up here:
https://www.apple.com/osx/photos-preview/
It says "coming this spring" and a pre-release version has already been made available to developer testers.

Why is my Mouse scrolling sticky?

Scrolling is sticky only on Firefox 7.0.1 browser.

try the following:
# Clear cache with Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Clear Now
# Disable extensions involving Google such as "'''Go'''ogle '''En'''hancer", "Optimize Google"
# Close anything at google.com that you aren't actually working on
I see a lot of Google errors in the Error console, and expect you might see the same. "Ctrl+Shift+J"

Scrolling sticky navigation

Hi All,
I've tried to implement a scrolling sticky navigation menu on a draft of my site but with no success.
I've been following the below tutorial.
Adobe Muse CC Tutorial | Scrolling Sticky Navigation - YouTube
I create a horizontal menu and place in the header in the centre. I've made sure to create this on Layer 2.
I select the menu and go to Scroll FX, fixed the motion numbers to what is suggested in the video and drag the key point to 0px.
Bt when i preview in browser or preview mode the menu is placed the left of the page and jumps to the right as i scroll down.
I read somewhere that sometimes there can be random text or image boxes or frames that can intefere with the scrolling so i selected all and had a look around but there are no weird floating frames anywhere. I even deleted the page and started again simply yo make sure it doesn't happen but it's still happening!! Even when all i've got on the page is the menu bar.
Has anyone tried this before and could help?
Thanks!

Make sure the proper direction is used, the default scroll is set to move left to right as shown in the red box.
Make that "0" and choose the motion above which is up pr down, indicated with the green box. Clicking on the up arrow.
Make sure your final motion is set correctly also.

Acrobat Pro 9.0 freezes when viewing/scrolling through the table of contents of a document

I am hoping someone can help me or has experienced the same problem I'm about to describe. I belong to the technical publications group of a fairly large company and I review a lot of PDF documents. I just installed Acrobat 9.0.0 (via CS4 Design Standard) and I've noticed on larger documents where there's a full page or several pages worth of Table of Contents, Acrobat 9.0.0 seems to freeze up when I begin scrolling through the TOC. For example, if I want to use the Text Edit tools or use a sticky note, when I press on an icon, Acrobat will freeze for a good 10 seconds, then will allow you to press the icon. It tends to freeze each time I want to make my next edit or even pressing the up/down arrow buttons to go to the next page. Once I get through the TOC pages, Acrobat seems to function normally--no freezes.
Has anyone experienced this? Would appreciate any kind of advice on how to fix--perhaps there's a patch or update?
I didn't experience any of this using Acrobat 8.0--I never had any real problems with Acrobat until 9.0.0.

Your issue may not be related to a difference between v8 and 9.
I have not had this problem on my computers, but a coworker had this issue. For many documents that others were able to open and scroll through without issue, his computer was freezing and unfreezing. IT determined his graphics capabilities were not able to keep up with the requirements of working with larger documents and gave his computer a RAM upgrade and a new graphics card. Particularly during scrolling, higher demands are made on the computer to graphically render and re-render page content. Documents giving him problems before became a non-issue.
A new graphics card is obviously a $$$ solution, but you might want to check to see if your RAM meets the minimum requirements and check to see if there are any program updates (Help > Check for Updates).
I have had an issue of pdfs freezing, but not specifically in the table of contents areas. If your document has pages with images that have an unusually high number of layers, it may affect the ability to work effectively in the document.

Problems creating a sticky footer

Hi,
I'm trying to create a website in Dreamweaver using a template that I purchased but I am having problems fixing a footer to the bottom of the page,
At the moment the content footer that I have created (which is a table) changes positon from page to page depending on the content.
The template comes with 2 x CSS style sheets and 1 x JS coded page which I know I need to amend in order for the footer to remain fixed to the bottom of each page.
The trouble is my CSS and JS are not up to much. I have inserted the code from the HTML, CSS & JS below.
If anyone can help me out it would be fantastic as I'm really at a loss!
The HTML of my main webpage is as follows:

A sticky footer is position:fixed and therefor always visible in the bottom of browser viewports -- even when users scroll up or down the page.

When I open my iPad the page is too big for the screen and won't shrink down. The keypad has also become very 'sticky'

Recently when I open any apps the pages are too big for the screen. They shrink when pinched but immediately become bigger again. It's very difficult to scroll too. The keypad has become very sticky. Missing letters and spaces when I type and needing to tap the keys much harder than usual

I have the exact same problem, I think. I was on my iPad 3's home page swiping R-L to locate a certain icon when all of a sudden the screen appeared to get HUGE. So big I could only see one or two icons. I couldn't even turn it off to try a reboot because after I pushed the sleep/wake button, I couldn't find the red slide bar. I finally just had to wait for the battery to die, then recharge it, and it looked normal again. I also spoke with several friends who haven either iPads or iPhones, and they've all had this happen to them. I checked my accessibility settings, and Zoom was already off. So what is causing this problem for so many people, and what can we do to prevent it? Please help.

How do I search for sticky notes in a PDF doc?

Several people (at work) have commented on a 440-page document that I created, using sticky notes to write their comments in. When I first open the document, the sticky notes are all closed. The icon for a closed sticky note is pretty small and not brightly colored, so they're easy to miss when scrolling through hundreds of image-heavy pages. I am hoping that it's possible to search for each occurrence of a sticky note.
If there is no way to search for the notes, is there a command I can use to open all the notes in the file (in one action) so that they are larger and easier to spot?
Platform: Windows 8 PC
Version: Acrobat 8
If this is not a feature available in Acrobat 8, is it possible to do this in later versions?
Apologies if this is not the right community for this question, but none of the ones listed seemed like the obvious choice, and there is no "miscellaneous" or "general" category. If there is a better community for the question, please let me know.
Thanks,
Joyce.

Out the gate you've a problem.
The Acrobat 8 product family passed into "End of Support" many years ago (well before the release of Windows 8).
"End of Support" means -- well, just that eh.
The Acrobat 8 product family is not compatible with Windows 8.1, 8 or 7.
The Acrobat XI product family is compatible with Windows 8 / 8.1.
Regarding Comment and Mark Up Annotations:
With Acrobat 8 Pro use the "Comments List".
Same wit Acrobat 9 Pro, X Pro and XI Pro.
May be available with the various versions' "Standard" release.
The contents of a Comments List can be exported to a PDF report.
The filter an be used to display specific characteristics / attributes which then become the reports content when you output a report.
Having "8" the Help PDF file got loaded with the install of "8".
Use it to review the information provided on the Comments List.
Be well...

Scrolling, typing and clicker "stick" all of the sudden - help?

I bought my MBP exactly one month ago, and things have been fine for the most part. But suddenly the response rate for my clicker, two-finger touch pad scrolling and typing ave been abysmally slow. It takes the computer a few seconds to catch up with what I'm typing, scrolling down pages is no longer smooth and controlled but sticky and "jumpy", and in clicking/unclicking boxes, links (anything)there is a similar delay.
Last night as I was watching some web-based quicktime videos everything froze up, and I had to restart...the first few attempts at restarting were unsuccessful; the grey screen popped up with the apple logo and the timer icon went round and round, but OS never booted. Once I did manage to boot up, the same thing happened again while trying to watch these videos. I restarted again, and again, and again, until the computer would boot to desktop. After that I began having this issue. Any ideas about what this is/how to fix it? Thanks.

viper0066 -
     You must have DiskWarrior v 4.4 in order to run under Lion. That does not mean you can't use an earlier version of DW if you are running a copy while booted in an earlier version of OSX provided that the version of DW is supported by that earlier version of OSX. So, you could use DW 4.3 on a Lion startup drive provided that you are booted into Snow Leopard or older, if that makes sense. Also, as of a few days ago Alsoft still didn't have a bootable CD/DVD for Lion, apparently they are waiting for a copy of the code from Apple to do this. So you can't boot a computer requiring Lion from an existing DiskWarrior CD or DVD (yet).
     I seem to remember a memory error similar to what you are getting when there is not enough room left on the drive for virtual memory while DW works. The larger the drive you are working on the more virtual memory space you need. Remember that DW operates in a fail safe mode, that is, it writes potential changes to unused space on the drive first so you can use the preview function before committing to the final writing of the repalcement directory. How much free space unused room do you have left on these drives, and how big are they? I'm not sure if the free space has to be contiguous, if so you might consider iDefrag or something similar. However, as to any drive that already has problems, do not try iDefrag, that well might make the problem worse:(
     I hope these comments help. - Randy

External ThinkPad USB Keyboard with TrackPoint issues with scroll (55Y9003) and hotkeys on a x201

Hello
Once more there is a glitch with the drivers for this external keyboard 55Y9003.
I have the drivers:
16.2.19.13 for the ultranav system of the x201
1.10 for the external keyboard
My system is XP sp3.
The keyboard of the x201is fine relative to the one 55Y9003.
The scrolling is set to standard for both systems.
Please do not advise to select smooth; it is not a solution and the smooth scrolling has been systematically utterly unusable.
The issues:
-the hotkeys on the external keyboards are not all working:
basically, fn+f4 and fn+nmlk work but the rest does not (say fn+f8)
-the scrolling of the external keyboard is not at all identical to the scrolling of the x201.
For instance, in pdfs viewed with foxit for instance, I have not a problem to scroll horizontally with the x201 starting with the hand tool.
WIth the external keyboard, whan I press the middle button to activate the scrolling, it remains the hand tool, I can scroll vertically but not horizontally.
FIrefox as also issues whith the middle button.
-the external keyboard still suffers from the sticky shift key.
I know the x201 and the 55Y9003 are no longer fashionable, but Is there some directly guy working at Lenovo who could help ?

I have the ThinkPad USB keyboard on a non-Lenovo desktop, and it works.
Yes the keyboard driver installs, but not the Lenovo System Interface Driver, for obvious reasons. All the buttons and TrackPoint work.
Yes the TrackPoint does not scroll in all programs. Search the community for "trackpoint scroll fix" and you will come up with instructions on how to fix this.
I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

Issue with Multithreading and vertical scroll bar - help needed to debug!!!

I have been working on a desktop Visual Studio 2010 application for quite a few years. It is written in C++ and MFC. This code is a combination of code I have written and code I inherited. It worked great for years on Windows XP, but when I ported
it to Windows 7, a tricky problem has come up that I am having the darnest time trying to figure out
In summary, it is a single .exe desktop application. There is the main thread (thread A), which launches another thread (thread B). Both threads share a pointer to a single window object which displays events. This window also implements a vertical and horizontal
scroll bar.
The interaction and message processing between the threads seems a little sticky to me. Both threads A and B call the same member function of the CWnd object. BUT, Thread B ALSO posts messages to thread A's queue.
So, in thread B, you will see code like this, which makes a direct call to the output window object, AND THEN it also posts a message to Thread A's mainframe window like this...
if( m_pEventLog )
pOutputWindow->AddLine("Some test...");
if( m_phNotifyWnd[RECEIVE] && m_puiEventWMsg[RECEIVE] ) {
::PostMessage( m_phNotifyWnd[RECEIVE], m_puiEventWMsg[RECEIVE], 0, (LPARAM) pPkt );
WHEN thread A receives the message that thread B posted above, it only does the following:
LRESULT CMainFrame::OnSocketReceive( WPARAM, LPARAM lParam )
CSPkt* pPkt;
CRWPkt* pRWPkt;
CSPktSocket* pSocket;
ULONG ulType;
CString csTemp;
CBSWords bsWords;
CSSSWords sssWords;
CRWPkt* pLoopBackRWMsg; // used if we have to send a loopback msg back to sender
CLMsg lmsg;
m_wndTextWindow.AddLine("Test message");
return 0;
So both threads are writing to the output window via the .AddLine() member function.
void COutputWnd::AddLine( CString& strLine, COLORREF crColor )
UpdateVScroll();
return;
And this function then makes a call to :UpdateVScroll(). The problem seems to arise because thread B does a
post to thread A, where thread A in turn writes to the output window. Eventually, the program
HANGS in the call to
SetScrollInfo() below...
void COutputWnd::UpdateVScroll()
CSingleLock lock( &m_CSVertScrollLock ); // lock things up while we are in here
BOOL bok = lock.Lock();
if (lock.IsLocked() == TRUE)
int iMax = m_FifoIndices.GetHighestIndex();
if( iMax < ( m_iMaxViewableLines - 1 ) )
iMax = 0;
//SetScrollRange( SB_VERT, 0, iMax, FALSE );
//SetScrollRange( SB_VERT, 0, 9, FALSE );
SCROLLINFO scrollinfo;
scrollinfo.cbSize = sizeof(SCROLLINFO);
scrollinfo.fMask = SIF_RANGE;
scrollinfo.nMin=0;
scrollinfo.nMax= iMax;
SetScrollInfo(SB_VERT, &scrollinfo, FALSE);
lock.Unlock();
It doesn't take long for the program to hang...maybe about 10 seconds.
When I hit DEBUG->BREAK ALL, I get the output below in the CALL STACK WINDOW.
ntdll.dll!770070f4()

NOTE: If I never make the call to SetScrollInfo(), the program never HANGS.
Sooo....I am trying to determine if there is a fundamental issue with the way the threads are communicating that is causing the issue, or if maybe I have a memory overwrite. It always hangs in ::SetScrollInfo(), no matter what I comment and uncomment. This
makes me think that scroll bat behavior is different in Windows 7 than on XP, but I have not been able to find any documentation about it.
Can anyone provide any insight as to what may be the cause of the program hanging>

It might look like working but it will crash eventually. The windows are thread affine and other thread must never touch other threads windows. Sometimes you might get along but usually it just crashes.
Thread B must use PostMessage ( or SendMessage if suncronous action is require) to thread A's windows to achieve correct updating. Some very basic calls are implemented directly with SendMessage so they are safe to use but then you must individually check
which ones are safe.
Also having multiple SendMessage calls from B to A require rendezvous which might cause other problems ( thread B stalls or program deadlocks, depending on other program structure).
So PostMessage is the way to do it ( or create yourself another inter-thread mechanism, possible but usually too much troble)
