Unable to scroll back in Safari

Hi
This is new problem i have after updated to 7.1.1 in Safari
When browsing sites in Safari i am sometimes stuck on a site and cant go back.
Dosent work using the finger on left side on iPad or the arrows back.
I have to manually load the frontpage then its working a while then its stuck again.
Happends to my iPad Ret 128GB and my iPad Mini Ret
Anyone else has this problem? Devices has been restarted and cleared cache/cookies.

you probably already know this -
sometimes when you click a link it spawns a new window, as opposed to advancing the window you are in. when you try to go back, since it is a new window, there is nothing to go back to. Check the tabs, and just touch the original tab. For me, unless I am looking for it in the tabs, I dont notice that it is a new window.

It's fine now. Originally, he went on Safari and clicked on one of his most visited sites and was unable to scroll. Then he went to Google and was able to get to the keyboard to do a search (I guess he couldn't do that with the scrolling issue). He also tried Yahoo and did a search for a news site he couldn't get to previously, went to the site and now everything is fine. For someone with PTSD (not me) this is like a life or death situation. For me, it's something I try to look into for resolve ASAP!!!

Unable to scroll iframe content in Safari on ipad

unable to scroll iframe content in Safari on ipad

Try going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Safari Suddenly Unable to Track Back

Sorry for my obvious lack of articulation around this subject, but I'm a pretty low-level user (mac, that is!!).
I've been checking out cds at my local library for ages. The process is pretty simple. You to their catalog screen, set it up for "cd on order" search and it takes you to a screen where you can flip through a lot of pages of new cds on order. Once you find one you want, you simply click on "place a hold" and it takes you to the next page which is a "submission" form. Then you enter your info, it takes you to a "location" screen (where you want the cd to go for pick-up). After the process is through, you simply hit "back" "back" and "back" and your back on the catalog page where you started.
The problem is that suddenly Safari can't track back to the catalog page and, in fact, is not even making a record of it in the history (which is probably the crux of the problem). Instead, it takes you back to the library homepage, where you again have to go through the process of selecting "cd on order" and then paging through until you get to the cd you just ordered and can then continue on in the process. A hassle, to say the least (there are often 65+ pages of cds on order at any given time). Since I've used Firefox to do this same procedure and it works just fine (always returning to the catalog page), I'm guessing that this is a Safari-specific issue. It all started with the OS upgrade.
My short-term fix is to just tab the new hold page and go through the process, then tab back to the catalog, which works fine, really. But I'd sure like to know why Safari suddenly can't track back to a page it has visited.
Sorry, long and not concise, I know, but I hope it leads to a fix at some point.

I am unable to scroll up and down with my mouse when using email.

When I load email, most of the time I am unable to scroll with my Magic1 button mouse. I can scroll just fine in any other application. I am using an iMac OSX 10.9. If I load any other program, I can scroll just fine.

First, try logging in as another user and see if the problem persists. The Guest user would be sufficient.
If it doesn't happen in another account, we can dig into yours to try to figure out what is causing it.
Second (if it fails in other account), boot into Safe Mode and see if it still occurs. Safe Mode disables third-party startup items which may be causing the problem. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455
If it doesn't happen in Safe Mode, then we can look at what is running in the background and guess at what might be causing that behavior.
Note that sometimes problems like this can be resolved by logging out and back in or by a restart.

After updating to ios5 the shortcut 'tapping top of screen' to scroll back to top does not work! Is there a way to get that back?

Since updating my ipad2 to iOS 5 the shortcut 'tap top of screen to quickly scroll back to top' no longer functions! How can I get this back?

It still works on my iPad - is it working on any of your apps e.g. Safari, Mail, Notes, and are you touching right at the top of the screen (I've seen a few other posts implying that the area of the screen that you need to touch isn't quite as deep as it used to be) ? Have you tried a reset to see if it works after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Reverting back to Safari 5.1.7

Back when Safari 6.0 came out, I updated to it but wasn't happy. At the time my laptop was still under warranty. I took it in for service and the tech deleted 6.0 and reinstalled 5.1.7 for me. This occured about 1 year ago.
Lately, I have been noticing terrible performance in Safari. It has become slow, twitchy, glitchy, unsmooth when scrolling, etc…so I decided to update to 6.1.1. Well its no better performance wise, so I would like to go back to 5.1.7. I have the download manager for it, and I did what the tech did a year ago to first delete 6.0. I deleted the Safari folder in its entirety, exactly how the Apple tech did prior, which is located at:
/system/library/stagedframeworks/safari
I then deleted the Safari folder found at:
Finder, click Go, hold option, click Library, delete Safari folder.
Next, I emptied the Trash Bin.
The problem is that when I run the 5.1.7 download manager, it says it worked but then when I try to launch Safari it does not work.
Anybody got any ideas?

If you have Lion the following method is relatively painless (Mountain Lion removed the OS X RSS supporting code so Safari v5.1.7 won't run on Mountain Lion) - assuming you have access to an installed package of Safari v5.1.7.
Leave v6.0 where it is.
Find another installed Safari v5.1.7 source (time machine, or a Mac that wasn't updated - Snow Leopard Macs did not get the v6 update). For a Mac that wasn't updated go into the Applications folder copy the Safari package (its the Safari Application with the Safari icon in Applications directory) - it should be about 40MB in size if memory serves.
On your Safari v6.0 Mac, go into your Applications folder and create a new folder (I called mine Old Safari), then drop your Safari v5.1.7 copy into it. Copy the Safari v5.1.7 to the dock so you can launch v5.1.7 easily (I deleted my v6 Safari icon for clarity Dock but its not required).
Run v5.1.7 and enjoy its functionality again (its what I'm typing this in and others have used this method) and any updates that come for v6 should find the installed v6 and update it.
Important, do not run both versions at the same time (they use the same supporting files and corruption is likely) and just to avoid issues if you are running v5.1.7 I'd avoid using v6 till your ready to give up the ghost on v5.1.7 (who knows what kind of issues could raise their heads with them both using the same supporting files).
At some point, with this method, you could do an update from Apple that updates the underlying supporting code Safari uses and breaks Safari v5.1.7 (like disable the Lion OS X RSS functionality) so that's an ongoing danger, but this is an option for folks that want to use v5.1.7 again and can't roll back their machines.
Of course v6 had a bunch of security issues fixed so using v5.1.7 presumably leaves those and future updates behind - so this isn't a great long term solution, but for now it works.

The scroll back gesture to the previous page, even after i sign out of my email account or Facebook anyone can still be able to see the content in the accounts just by scrolling back using the gesture.

the scroll back gesture to the previous page, even after i sign out of my email account or Facebook anyone can still be able to see the content in the accounts just by scrolling back using the gesture. how can i stop safari from showing the content of my accounts?

Try calling Tech Support, they should be able to check to see if theres a lock and try to help you reset it, I had to call and get my account unflagged, for something that I didn't even do.

JTree scrollbar problem - can't scroll back to top when some nodes hidden

I have a problem which I cannot resolve: I have a JTree which has had 88 rows added to it, and which then has 15 or so rows set to be not visible; when I then scroll to the bottom of the pane I am unable to scroll all the way back to the top using either the scroll button at the top of the bar or the mouse scroll wheel although I can drag the knob to get to the top; using the button or wheel, the scrolling stops somewhat short of the top; via testing I've found that the AdjustmentEvent is not fired when it reaches that point. Anyone seen this before and/or know a way around it?
Thanks in advance,
Mike

MikeAuerbach267 wrote:
It turns out that my problem was due to the fact that I am using my own TreeCellRenderer which makes invisible some nodes via user option but doesn't reload the tree; hence the confusion as to the scrollbar size. I now correctly reload after user option has changed rather than render nodes invisible and all is fine. Which reinforces Andrew's view in reply #1 that a 'vague waving about of hands' does not allow the forum members to help.

Any scroll down menus freek out when opened and i am unable to scroll down the screen.

Hello, any scroll down menu,c such as where the URL goes, freeks out when I click on the URL space or the down arrow to look at my history. This happens with all these types of menus. And also I frequently am unable to scroll down my screen. Even now as I am typing the curser keeps going back up to the top of the box where I started this message. I Fully scanned my computer and my computer protection didn't find any problems so I am thinking it is Firefox

Why can't I scroll only in Safari with my magic mouse

Every so often I can't scroll only in Safari ( Firefox etc. OK) with my magic mouse. I can resolve that by quitting Safari, holding the option key while clicking on Go. This brings up library,click and click on caches. Then click on Apple: safari. Trash the cachesDB and empty trash. Click on Safari and the previously open window comes back up and you can scroll. This lasts an indeterminate amount of time and then freezes again. How can I fix this permanently?

I just turned them off. Will see whether this solves the problem when I can go for days without it freezing. Thanks. One question. Why are the extensions on in the first place?

8.0.2 - problem 1 - unable to scroll screen when the keyboard is present. Huge problem for emails and other cloud based providers that allow for data entry. We need a fix ASAP!

8.0.2 - problem 1 - unable to scroll screen down or up when the keyboard is present. When typing text, I am unable to see the text I am writing due to this problem. Huge problem for emails and other cloud based providers that allow for data text entry. While the keyboard is present, I am unable to scroll down to see the text, the screen automatically scrolls back up to the top of the screen. We need a fix ASAP!

Have you tried resetting your iPad? You will not lose any data. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
