Track point scroll lag

X61s Vista Business.
When I scroll through large pages (such as newspapers) in Internet Explorer there is a terrible lag in the scrolling. My track point scroll is set at standard scroll mode and thats the way I like it, what is irritating is that changing it to even scroll mode fixes the problem. I do not want to use the even scroll mode, is there a fix for the lag in standard scroll mode? Has anyone had similar problems?
Erik

Compare what's going on in Activity monitor (Applications > Utilities > Activity.monitor.app) when you are getting the delay and when you scroll withoud delay with a different input window selected.
Do the same with your mac that doesn't have the problem, and see if there's any obvious differences. Post back here any processes that are consuming a lot of CPU time, and the page in/outs/swaps.

  • Why is my ThinkPad track point scroller not working in Firefox 4?

    Today as advised by you I have installed Firefox 4 on my ThinkPad Z60m laptop. Earlier with Firefox and all other application worked fine but now its not working on Firefox 4 yet working fine on MS IE and other applications. Please let me know soonest or else I being an avid user of the IBM track point will discontinue using Firefox altogether.

    For me the solution given here worked on my Thinkpad T42 WinXP:
    http://aslezak.com/thinkpad-trackpoint-scrolling-in-firefox
    Open this file in Notepad:
    C:\Program Files\Synaptics\SynTP\tp4table.dat
    Find this line:
    ; Pass 1 rules (These rules run last)
    Add the following lines above that:
    ; Firefox
    *,*,firefox.exe,*,*,*,WheelStd,0,9
    *,*,firefox.exe,*,*,MozillaWindowClass,WheelStd,0,9

  • When I upgraded to Firefox 7 I lost my ability to scroll using my ultraNav Track Point or my UltraNav Touch Pad on my Lenovo Thinkpad.

    When I upgraded to Firefox 7 I lost my ability to scroll using my ultraNav Track Point or my UltraNav Touch Pad on my Lenovo Thinkpad. I can still scroll on Internet Explorer or in other applications. How do I fix this?
    Thanks,

    Thank you for a super fast and helpful response!
    It took me a few attempts to get it right. Last time I tried it I got the card id wrong.
    For others: I created the following file
    /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf
    with the contents
    options snd-hda-intel id=Generic1 index=1
    I rebooted. I accepted the KDE prompt about devices being removed. I unmuted everything with alsamixer again.
    Sound now works in VLC (audio settings to default) and Firefox, and also in both at the same time. Kmix also works as expected when I set the Master Channel to HD Audio Generic. Headphones jack also works.

  • I have a macbook pro mc700, And the scrolling lags or doesn't respond at times. What can I do to fix it?

    I have a macbook pro mc700, And the scrolling lags or doesn't respond at times. What can I do to fix it?

    There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory and virtual memory.
    That can happen for two reasons:
    You have a long-running process with a memory leak (i.e., a bug), or
    You don't have enough memory installed for your usage pattern.
    Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
    In the Activity Monitor application, select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Click the heading of the  Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
    View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
    from the menu bar.
    If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
    The process named "Safari Web Content" renders web pages for Safari and other applications. It uses a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider it a prime suspect.
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
    The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command: 
    sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
    where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.

  • How do I get more motion tracking points in analyzation?

    Hi Everyone,
    I am having the problem that when I try  to stabilize footage in AF3, the analyzation points that are created are at least half as much as see in tutorials done with the same footage online. Why is that? How can I create more analyzation points? When I say analyzation points they come in the form form of generated anchor points in the timeline.
    -Digital_Toronto
    The below is an example where I noticed I wasn't getting the same amount of analyzation points, as the tutorial in After Effects I tried to replicate below:
    http://www.videocopilot.net/tutorials/stabilize_shaky_footage/

    Hi Aldolfo,
    Thanks for the response. Actually what I did is I went through Andrew tutorial myself to
    see if I could do it exactly as he did. What I found in tracking the same footage used
    in the tutorial, I got maybe 1/3 of the tracking points. Somehow I don't think this is
    normal and that's why I wondering how I can increase the track points or find out
    what's wrong.

  • Line with endpoints following tracked points

    I have a video with two points that have been motion tracked.
    I want to create a line connecting these two points, with the endpoints of the line moving to match the tracked points as they move.
    Is there an easy way to do this?

    The usual suspects have an excellent tutorial for that:
    http://youtu.be/Kaj969r7t9I

    The tut is about three points, but I'm sure, it works with two too....

  • What's with Safari 6? Extremely unstable, scrolling lags, typing lags...

    I upgraded to Safari 6 just before (using Software update, I'm using 10.7) and... it's completely unusable.
    I tried to post this question using Safari but it crashed 4 times, so I'm in Chrome now. (No crash report dialog appeared to report to Apple.)
    And it's slow: There are huge lags in typing. And long scrolling lags.
    It's basically unusable. That's not an exaggeration - it's seriously completely unusable. Just the crashing alone makes it unusable.
    Wasn't this tested?
    I usually use Safari as my main browser and Chrome for testing, but I'm going to have to use Chrome as my main browser until this is fixed.
    Anybody know what's going on?
    Thanks,
    doug

    To help ascertain part of the problem - open Activity Monitor (it's in your Applications folder in another folder called 'Utilities')
    Open that, in the Processes dropdown, select 'All Processes'
    In the list of 'processes' check and see how much CPU % that the Safari and Safari Web Content processes are using.
    For me, they have been consistently using 60-110% of my CPU% even when I have only a couple pages open - even with Flash disabled, Extensions turned off, etc.
    This is the problem at its core.
    I've also noticed that my IM app Adium is taking an abnormal amount of CPU % now also, I suspect because it also uses WebKit to display a message window.
    Which makes me think there is a large bug in Safari 6's implementation of WebKit - which can affect any application that uses a webview to display content.
    Not good.
    Let me know if the high CPU% issue is true for you guys also.

  • How to disable IBM Thinkpad 600X's tracking point ?!

    To whom it may concern:
    How are you? This is Daniel. I have an IBM Thinkpad 600X notebook. The tracking point already doesn't work. I want to disable it and use an external mouse. Could you please give me a favor how to solve this problem? According to IBM manual, "Holding F1 and turn on the system, then modify its BIOS !!!". I already try serval times, but this method doesn't work, the screen always show me "ERROR CODE 8611" at first, and then automatically enter into Windows XP system. NEVER SHOW ME ITS BIOS MANUAL !!!. I think perhaps there has an another HOTKEY to wake up the BIOS. I am looking forward to your help. Have a good day.
    With best regards,
    Daniel

    Yes, it can be hard to gain access to the BIOS when the Trackpoint error (8611) occurs. About the best thing I can suggest, short of removing the keyboard, would be to hold down the F1 key, while at the same time applying constant pressure on the Trackpoint in one direction (up, down, left or right) before you turn the laptop on. Continue to hold the F1 key and applying pressure on the Trackpoint while the system boots. You should eventually see the Easy-Setup (BIOS) menu. Then you can release the key and Trackpoint. Note that you may not be able to select the BIOS menu options with the Trackpoint; use the arrow key instead. When the selected option is highlighted, press the Enter key.
    To (semi-)permanently disable the Trackpoint you need to access the "Config" menu and then press the CTRL-D key. That will bring up a hexadecimal display, "System Configuration Edit Utility". You then need to change the value in the third row and first column (i.e., offset 200) from the "02" that is already there to "01". Again, use the arrow keys to move the cursor to that location and then type in 01. Once that's done, press the F2 key (Save) and the screen will flash and the cursor will return to the 000 location. Then press the Escape key twice. That will put you back to the main BIOS display. Use the arrow keys and select the Restart option and confirm it.
    The Trackpoint should stay disabled until you reset the BIOS. That's what I mean by semi-permanently. If for any reason you need to re-enable the Trackpoint at a later date, change the "01" back to "02" or simply choose the Initialize option in the BIOS Config menu.

  • 3D camera track points not displaying correctly

    Just bought a new iMac and am re-installing all of my programs including Creative Cloud programs. I am having an issue with After Effects not displaying all the track points when I use the 3D camera tracker. I get maybe 6-10 points displaying but that is it. They are there because I can still create nulls, solids, shadow catchers, etc... but the points themselves will not display. I have used the camera tracker in the past with no problems at all. Any idea why this would be going on? Here are my iMac specs...

    Try some of your older footage. Some footage produces very few tracking points, other footage produces a lot. Sometimes you need to scale up the size of the track points to see more of them. A screen shot would help us diagnose your problems.

  • HT2845 why doesn't my mighty mouse track ball scroll up or down vertically?

    why doesn't my mighty mouse track ball scroll up or down vertically?

    Hi:
    New ones are not that expensive, but I would try running it up and down (vigorously) on microfiber cloth or a towel or something.
    If that does not fix it...yes I would buy a new one.  I like wireless ones anyway

  • 15" MBPr scroll lag: What are you experiences servicing this under AppleCare?

    I'm one of the many suffering from the dreaded and well documented scroll lag. Have tried literally everything to fix this on my own, but have had no success. Using a tool like QuickRes to force non-HiDPI has helped; I've been using this band aid solution for well over a year now..
    I have a 3 year AppleCare warranty.. What are your experiences with trying to get this serviced? I can't see this being a hardware issue, but then again, it very well could be. It doesn't look like any 13" MBPr's suffer from the same issues? I know it isn't typical for Apple to give out full replacements.. There's been users that have reportedly had up to 9 repairs / replacements, and this doesn't sound like something I'd want to go through.. Countless hours over the phone, at the Genius Bar, the wait times for repairs..
    Is this issue directly related to the problems with the LG / Samsung displays? I can confirm I have a Samsung.

    Ask for a new unit or a refund. Go for the fourth time or even the fifth. Its an expensive machine bought with hard earned money.

  • Major Scrolling Lag!

    Dear All,
    I have been suffering from this major scrolling lag on my mid 2012 macbook air 13.
    The lag is not only persistant to chrome or safari but also exists while scrolling between desktops, in the launchpad, in preview, word, system preferences....its omni-present.
    I started facing this problem since 4 days back, almost a month after installing mavericks. I have never faced such an issue while using mountain lion.

    Huge advantage for $170 more
    why?
    802ac wifi.
    Haswell cool processing and long battery life.
    Much more lightweight.
    Faster SSD
    Absolutely yes its worth the $170
    The 802ac wifi alone is worth it, it will run circles around everything else in wireless speeds.

  • Camera tracked points not showing up

    Hey.
    I am familiar with the built in Camera Tracker in After Effects and I have had no problems with it up untill this point.
    My problem is that after the 3D Camera Tracker is done analyzing the frames, the track points does not show up on the screen.
    If i check on "Render Track Points", they do show up, but when i check it off again, the points disappear again, so that doesn't help me at all.
    I got 8 gb ram and a decent graphics card.
    Does anyone know a solution to my problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    Are your view options set to show layer controls?

  • Scroll lag in Mail.app on  Yosemite

    Hi, I found a scrolling lag (very huge lag) in yosemite's Mail.app
    Only if the app is in full screen mode, the right and left content boxes (the mailboxes and the mail content vindow) is not scrolling by two finger scroll, just if I using the scrollbar on the side
    If I use the app in window mode, there is no lag in the scrolling
    See this video: https://www.dropbox.com/s/l43flo6xh8tkcog/2014-10-25%2011.34.18.mov?dl=0
    Any idea to solve it?

    @Ábrahám Péter
    Strange. I can scroll vertically fine but since I upgraded to Yosemite I sometimes get messages with all the content in a single line. And I cannot scroll horizontally. The two finger side scroll is working for me on MacBook Pro trackpad but is not working for me on Magic Mouse.
    I regret upgrading to Yosemite so early coz - although everything I read said it was bug free and there was no learning curve - I am finding Mail pretty much unusable since. List of my problems is here: Problems with Mail since update Yosemite

  • AE CC 2014 Camera Tracker Not Allowing Me To Create Nulls From Track Points

    After Effects CC 2014
    iMac OS X Version 10.9.5
    Pro: 3.2 CHz IC i5
    32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB
    I have been trying to use AE's camera tracker for two days and while it will track, show the track points, and even create a camera... It will not allow me to right click the track points to create nulls and it will not show any of the plain targets. My work around was to upload my footage (Red Epic footage) to the older AE CC, re set up all my ins and outs, track the footage, save it, and open it up back in AE CC 2014. Then it allows me to create track points and such.
    Great that I found a work around but takes so much time. Please help me if you can. Thanks!
    Chris

    There is obviously some bug regards of resolution of tracked footage, because if you precompose e.g. Epic 5K footage to HD comp and camera 3D track this comp then all works OK (points are displayable, selectable and camera is "addable"(?)).
    But I don't know "trigger" resolution value, when it works, and when not.

Maybe you are looking for
