Why is my scrolling jerky and not smooth?

Hi,
I just bought a refurbished MBPro early 2013 model. However I noticed that the scrolling is not very smooth when using multitouch scroll, and can be quite jerky, particularly with Safari (I am using Chrome). I have already tried restarting in Safe Mode which didnt improve anything. It's not massively lagging but I feel like it should be smoother, especially with pages like Facebook.
Does anyone know why this might be or how to resolve it?

  • Magic trackpad jerky and not smooth lots of troubleshooting to no avail.

    Uggg... so I swear this started a few days ago when I was trying to do the photo's upload (didn't work) but it might just have been coincidence...
    My magic trackpad (bluetooth enabled using with my iMac) is crazy jerky and NOT smooth at any speed.... here is all the info... this is VERY strange.
    A regular plugged in mouse works fine.
    The trackpad IS jerky on other users.
    I have cleaned it and dried it multiple times
    Brand new batteries reading at 100%
    Have un paired and paired it again.
    Have paired the Trackpad with ANOTHER COMPUTER and it works FINE.
    I am at a loss.
    All software updates are up to date.  I have turned bluetooth off and on.
    Ugg... I literally can't think of anything else to do... I obviously am using this CONSTANTLY so any ideas would be much appreciated!

    Hey yendoggy,
    Resetting your Mac's SMC and NVRAM may help stabilize input from your trackpad.

  • TS2988 I had to reset my phone and I only have one of my ringtones I had 4.. Why'd it delete 3 and not the last one and now I can't get em back without paying for them again!!! What the **** is up with that??

    Yup, your question and Diane's answer helped me also. Tho' I had had problems before getting into the iTunes store I always managed to find a way. Today they had me blocked cold with the "Update to 10" advert no matter what I did. Other questioners are being told, incorrectly as it turns out, that they have to update their OS to accomodate iTunes 10 and upgrade to iTunes 10. I did the download which did not take up much more room on my crowded old hard drive and now I'm back in business.

  • Text edges are ridged and not smooth

    I have FCE and I used livetype to add some annimated text to my video project. But when I add the text to my FCE project on playback the text edges are ridged and not smooth. How can I correct this. F.Y.I. my video projects are in HD, not sure if that would make a difference but just wanted to provide the info.
    Here is a link to the what i mean: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMDLPLQdOgE
    If you watch the video in HD and about 30 secs into the clip when its just the text on the screen you can see exactly what i mean

    1. Set your LiveType project properties to match your Final Cut Sequence settings.
    In the Project Properties window you can also set the render quality. Make sure it is set to "Normal".
    2. When you add the LiveType object to your FCE timeline, it will need to be rendered. This is indicated by the colored stripe above the clip on the timeline.
    3. The Canvas always shows a low-res proxy, to better enable real time playback. Final Cut Pro will let you connect a calibrated broadcast quality monitor or at the very least, an excellent TV. This is the only way to see what you really have. I don't use FCE, so I don't know if it has this capability.

  • After syncing my music onto my iphone5, why are songs grayed out and not playable

    after syncing my music onto my iphone5, why are songs grayed out and not playable?

    If you are syncing music to the iPhone automatically, you won't be able to drag and drop tracks on to the iPhone and the music will be grayed out.
    You'll have to Manually Manage the music.
    Configure iPhone, iPad, or iPod for manual management
    If you have iTunes 7 or later*, follow these instructions:
    Connect the device to your computer.
    Open iTunes.
    Select iPhone, iPad, or iPod in the Devices list.
    Click the Summary tab and select "Manually manage music and videos".
    Click Apply.
    Even when you have enabled manual management, you can still sync some content automatically. Select any content tab, such as Video, to enable automatic syncing for that type of content.

    You're not giving us any information to work with to help you. We need to know a lot more to help you. Please provide answers to the questions listed here: "FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?"
    I'm going to take a guess, and I'm guessing that you are previewing by pressing the space bar. Don't do that. Use RAM preview to get real-time playback of previews.

  • Why did you buy E6x and not E6x?

    Why did you pick the one you did, and not the other? We all have differant ways to use our phones. Whick E-series modell did you buy...and why not the other?

    given that all the e-series phones seem to be rather unique, i think this is a self answering question.

  • Can someone tell me why IE is erroring out and not FF?

    Ok..this is driving me batty...
    This code works just fine in FF 2.0, but not IE6:
    function addFavorite(owner,faveUser){
    var empRow =
    dsNames.findRowsWithColumnValues({"employee":faveUser},true);
    if (empRow == ""){
    alert('User not found');
    return false;
    }else{
    var faveUserID = empRow.@username;
    I have the above function called when I click an Add button
    on an Autosuggest form. Works flawlessly in Firefox. But I get a
    scripting error with IE. "Error: conditional compilation turned
    off".
    And the other thing is, this function gets executed when the
    page loads. It should only get executed when I click the Add
    button. Anyone have a clue? I'm totally lost.... :(
    Thanks!
    Chris

  • Why is E on display and not 3G?

    Why is E on the display and not 3G?

    If resetting the network settings, then it's because you're out of the 3G coverage zone or 3G is down in your area. Check to make sure you are in a 3G coverage area and if you should be, contact your carrier to see if there is a problem.

  • Why has Apple remained silent (and not helpful) on MobileMe & iPhone mess?

    I am puzzled frankly why Apple corporate has decided to remain virtually silent (and not at all helpful or apologetic to users) on its website and public statements regarding the mess people experienced in trying to install the new 2.0 update on first gen iPhones, or currently, in trying to get MobileMe to do even part of what was promised. From a company with such loyal customers, this is frankly baffling. I hope that criticism the company received this week in newspaper columns (see links below) by two generally pro-Apple tech critics -- David Pogue in the New York Times and Walt Mossberg in the Wall Street Journal -- really take Apple to task for its blunders.
    The New York Time's Pogue really hit the nail on the head -- http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/24/technology/personaltech/24pogue-email.html?em& ex=1217131200&en=9e9469e0fadb7cc5&ei=5087%0A -- by implying that Apple has become just like all of the other tech companies when it comes to being totally indifferent over customers' complaints or requests for help.
    The company even refused to try and clear the air by speaking to Pogue on the record!
    I really wonder what genius at Apple has decided that silence and no form of apology is the best policy. I would think being compared to the competition is the last thing Apple would like. The corporate mind is truly unfathomable.

    2 apologies

  • Spry Accordion jerky and not content filling correctly after refresh

    Hello.
    I have a page I'm trying to make a Spry Accordion work smoothly.
    I've tried options such as, fixedHeight fps  from 30 - 500, timer from 100ms to 1000ms, disabling Keyboard navigation, all working somewhat, BUT....
    When opening and closing the panels sometimes they open to "fill content" and others no.
    For example in the LEgal panel there is only one line. I would like that panel open to a height equal to the line height. Some other pabnels open partially then fully, and back again.
    The animation can be pretty jerky.
    I've duplicated the page and while playing with a JQUERY UI accordion it is pretty smooth.
    IS there anything I can do to get the Adobe Spry to work?
    http://corporate.fr/ce/clientsSpry.html
    Ooops never mind. I will post this anyway as maybe other noobs will resolve the problem if they do as I did.
    I stuck this
    In the container after the div not realising the default <script> is put at the very end of the mark up just before the </body>
    Two things learned, one when the Adobe document says the script has to go in after the mark up, that means not just after the div with the Spry but all the way at the end,
    and two: if you modify the Spry options, note the var acc1 and the string "Acc1" have to be replaced with your Spry ID, in both places.

    Hello to all,
    I have spent HOURS trying to figure this out....
    I know the above code is messy, but it does correctly do the accordions via innerHTML.  I have a dropdown on my page and when the user changes the input there, I call "doSpryData" and it is supposed to 1) reload XMLDataSet and 2) redraw the Accordion (I would like to have different data displayed on the same page depending on what user selects).  For some reason, it will not redraw the accordion and show the data after it has been done once. 
    I am really desperate so any ideas would be much appreciated!
    Cheers,
