T43 Vertical Scrolling Problem (not just Firefox)- Any official response from Lenovo

After searching the forum, i have not been able to find any response from Lenovo as to how to correct this problem.
Incidentally, my "occasional" vertical scrolling problem occurs in any browser, IE7, Firefox3, Opera9 (at least those 3) as well as Windows applications with a vertical scroll bar like Windows Explorer.
This only started to occur very randomly around 6 months ago. But as of late it is occuring more often.
The only work-around
http://blog.jonschneider.com/2008/03/workaround-thinkpad-gets-into-always.html
might indicate that it is a possible hardware problem.
However, I have to say that I rarely use the laptop scrolling buttons and 99.9% of the time, latetly, I use a Logitech laser USB mouse for scrolling purposes.
As another possible work-around (if you are using an external mouse) is to uncheck the enable virtual scrolling in the touchpad properties window.
I certainly hope it is not a hardware problem, as the warranty on my T43 ran out a long time ago.
btw, I am running Windows XP Pro XP3.

Vertical Scrolling problem in Safari

I'm currently having an odd vertical scrolling problem in Safari. This issue is not reproduced in Chrome or Firefox.
I've been able to reproduce this issue doing something very simple:
I have a browser wide rectangle with a solid color.
Beneath that I have a browser wide photo. (Rectangle set to browser edges and then fit to fill with photo.)
And beneath that I have another browser wide rectangle with a solid color.
Then I scroll.
Once the photo (the middle element) reaches the top of the screen I have shut the scrolling off so the photo will stay static. (Initial motion 1 / Final motion 0 set in the "Fill/Scroll" tab - and the key position is set so it stops at the top of the browser.) As expected, the lowest box continues to scroll upwards and cover the static photo.
This very simple effect is flawless in Preview mode, Chrome, and Firefox.
Yet in Safari, the photo, once it reaches its resting spot, does stay static, but seems to jump and jitter all over the place while I continue scrolling and the below content covers it. (In the other browsers it's super solid like a real static background.)
I've read there are some parallax scrolling bugs in Safari Mavericks. But I'm still in an older operating system using 10.8.5 and Safari 6.0.5.
Any suggestions or work arounds on how to correct this? (Again, I'm controlling the scroll using the scroll tab found with "Fill". Should I also be using the one found under Scroll Effects? What the best one to use? Although it does work in the other browsers… so… maybe I'm not doing anything wrong and this really is a Safari problem.)
Thanks you.

Hi
Please share the site url, I will have a look.

Trackpad scroll function not working in any app - tried everything

Hello.
This is my 1st time writing in the forums, and although I have read multiple threads on this issue, nothing has yet solved my problem, including: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1248, & http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1449. SO ANY HELP IS WELCOME! I have a mid-2010 MBP 13" intel-based dual core with Mavericks OSX 10.9.1 installed already a couple of months now. As of last night, my two-finger scroll does not function in any app. It is the ONLY function on my trackpad that does not work. I have tried changing all scroll preferences, restarting the browser (firefox 27.0.1) & computer, as well as opening Preview app 7.0 to see if it affects other apps as well. It does not work even in Finder. I looked in the permissions section of my apps by right-clicking on "get info" & there seems to be a discrepancy between the default users and their permissions. I am wondering if this is perhaps the problem and can be reset somehow to default settings or if there is a terminal command that can reset the trackpad (like the PC function in the device manager of the control panel, diagnose/repair)? I have a screen shot of the different users/permissions that I can send/post you if necessary, but you'll have to explain me how to do this, as this is my 1st post. Thank-you!

So whoever falls on this issue, I have visited the Apple Genius Bar today & this is what finally solved my problems:
1. We created a TEST guest account in System Preferences to find out if it was a user-specific related problem, and it was as the 2-finger scroll function was working in the new user account. I was told this means that the problem is due to a setting that was recently added/deleted/changed.
2. We deleted the new user account.
3. We deleted the entire user library folder (except the Mail folder), as that is where all preferences are apparently stored.
4. VOILA! 2-finger scrolling now functions as was intended (only all settings must now be recreated).
It is tedious, but at least everything functions as normal & nothing needs to be backed up!
Hope if anyone else has had this problem, they find this post.
Cheers,
Leo

Get Error -An error occurred while installing the extension "Lastpass". Not just Lastpass, ANY extension I try to install HELP!

I am getting an error - An error occurred while installing the extension “Lastpass”. Not just Lastpass, ANY extension I try to install. I just updated to Mavericks 10.9.1. Safari version 7.0.1. This is super frustrating. I was going to try to delete the extentions.plist and I cannot find that. I reset Safari. I tried just sropping files into the extentions folder, that doesn't work. Can someone please help?

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked
Allow user to administer this computer
Then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password dialog will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
In the dialog, select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if it's not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if it's not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

How can I widen the vertical scroll bar width in Firefox and Thunderbird?

How can I widen the vertical scroll bar width in Firefox and Thunderbird?

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Are There Any Official Answers From Apple/Logic Team To All Our Questions?

Are There Any Official Answers From Apple/Logic Team To All Our Questions Here?????
Why is Logic's interface still heavy Graphically? My G5 Dual 2.5 with 5.5 Gig ram is not enough? see how Cubase handels graphics on the same machine or even ProTools??? by the way I am a Logic user for more than 15 years, so I guess Apple knows exactly that their clients are faithfull to their products so why Logic is still outdated in many aspects, if Apple does not have the intension to make Logic the industry STANDARD they can tell us clearly

Thoughts???
Sure; that if this was once an awesome app that i would either go back to that version or, having been seduced by new features etc., i find that i can't live without them then I would (and have ) dl Reaper (mac, free), try the Sonar7 demo bootcamped (a truly awesome app), find an le version of Cubase (there's no demo and the full version ain't cheap) and try 'em all out on a second machine over a long, slow weekend. They all have strengths and weaknesses. They all have problems for some users. if you can get around on one of them you can quickly gain passable competence on any of them and at the very least you'll learn new things you can do with Logic and, more than likely, learn that Logic is still your favorite. 8 is a major overhaul, it's bound to take a few patches to get it right. Do we want it to be perfect out of the box? Of course. Is that ever gonna' happen? Noooo ... but if it doesn't work, go back to 7, hassle Apple about and wait till the fix it.
Good luck!

Firefox Vertical Scroll Bar Not Functioning Properly

== Issue
==
Firefox is having problems with certain web sites
== Description
==
As I visited the referenced Web page, although the page displays normally, vertical scrolling is impaired. Clicking and dragging the vertical scroll "handle" DOES work. However, to scroll up or down by the height of the browser's display area, you'd click in the "blank space" immediately above or below the vertical scroll handle (comparable to using your keyboard's PageUp or PageDown buttons), and this is the scrolling method that does not work. Clicking the vertical scroll arrows does not work either.

This may or may not be related, but I was having a similar issue, and it was affecting the same page in Chrome as well!
Turns out my issue was that the page was calling home via AJAX and my bandwidth at the moment was impaired, as I was downloading a big file.
Once I stopped the download, everything went back to normal, with only a tiny hiccup on the page scrollbars once every some seconds, where they would get stuck for a few milliseconds.
This is probably caused by the page using synchronous AJAX calls, instead of asynchronous ones. Synchronous calls will block the browser until a response is received from the server. If bandwidth is compromised, this response will be delayed or even worse, not received at all, in which case the page will stop working (or at least this seems like what would happen, don't know if it is actually true).
Hope this helps.

Vertical Scroll bar not using all view port space

I'm developing an ADF application in 11g to be used on a PC and under the browser on an IPAD. My top page layout has a panel group layout of scroll. When the page renders in IE it does not consume all the available viewport. The vertical scroll bar stops about an inch above the bottom of the page. On the IPAD, when I have the device in portrait orentation, I only get about half the window area. I need to have the page render in all the available space on the viewport, especially on the IPAD. Can anyone tell me how I can get the page to render and take up all the available space in the viewport?

I did try that. I was having some issues with trying to put everything I had on the page inside of one. I think it actuall turned out to be something else. I was messing around with things on the page fragment. ADF was adding a scroll bar but not using the whole page to do so. I took the scroll panel off the page fragment and off of any other page fragment including the actual JSF page. When I set a large heigth for the page on my top panel group, which I had on the main page that contained the bonded task flow region, I got the browser to create the scroll bar for me for the whole page. It fixed the problem on the PC and it also fixed the issue I had with the page rendering on the IPAD. The IPAD now allowed the whole page to be scrolled by sliding your finger.

Mouse will scroll up, not down. Any fixes?

I'm a new mac guy having bought an imac a few months ago.
I've been working on this regularly up to and including a lot today. All of a sudden, just a moment ago, my mouse (the USB one that came standard) will scroll up on web-sites but not down. Make that in all settings, not just web-sites.
Unlike the PC mouse I was accustomed to, I don't see a way to clean anything on this one. I feel it's too new to already be worn out but maybe these things have a very short life.
Any advice?
Thanks.

Hi Clayton: I have seen this issue pop up a few times on here. This is what Apple has to say about cleaning the mouse. I don't have first hand experience doing this, but it looks fairly straight forward on the little instructional video.

Happy Cleaning

Ipod battery charging problem not found in any posts

OK here's the problem
The battery meter on my 5g flashes that charging symbol, even when it's not plugged in the wall.
And sometimes when I use my friends griffin charger it charges and than stays on the charged symbol even after I unplug it.
Also my apple charger doesn't work at all (not just mine, I borrowed my friends and it doesnt either work).
Also when I plug into the computer it mounts but doesn't charge.
OK I'll tell you what I did so far: I read ALL of apples related battery documents. I restored. I depleted the battery and recharged it. I bought a new cable.
I used my friends computer. I used the back USB port. Nothing is helping the ipod.
By the way I know for a fact that this all started when one time i did actually use the front usb port. It sort of jinxed the whole battery meter into it's current state. Any one with this problem? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

Brushes Vertical Scrolling Problem

I have been using PSE8 for a month now. I have a problem with my brushes. When my brushes palette dialog box is open and I want to use my mouse to hold the vertical scroll bar on the left down. Once I click on it with my mouse pointer, the whole dialog box closes. So, that means that if I want to scroll up or down my list of brushes I have to use the arrow keys on my keyboard. Could someone please tell me what is going on?

Several people have reported this problem; so it’s possibly a bug.
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2538490#2538490
Does it make any difference if you click on the arrow icon >> and select re-set brushes? You will find this towards the top right of the brushes pallet.

Vertical Scroll Bars not wanted

I have read other messages, but I cannot figure out why the
vertical scroll bar still appears in IE even though there is no
content below. The bar is there but not useable. Is there some code
that will turn this off when not needed?

That's the way IE (and some other browsers) works. It always
draws a
vertical scrollbar. If the scrollbar is not needed, it is
"ghosted" and
not usable, as you have noticed. When the page's content
exceeds the
window height the ghosted scrollbar rises from the grave and
becomes alive.
Other browsers do not add a scrollbar until one is needed.
Some people
don't like this because the addition of the scrollbar removes
some space
from the window, making it a bit narrower, and page elements
that are in
some way positioned or sized in relation to the window's
width will
shift and/or change size slightly.
IE's solution prevents this content shifting at the expense
of devoting
part of the window to a non-functioning interface element
some of the time.
(It is my belief that either method of handling the vertical
scrollbar
is fine, and skilled designers will not create pages that
fall apart if
a scrollbar should appear where there was none before. For
the record, I
subscribe to the no-scrollbar-at-all-until-one-is-needed
doctrine.)
