  • Why does touchpad scrolling not work in Firefox?

    Scrolling a web page from the touchpad on my laptop (IBM T42, quite old) does not work in Firefox (the page sits still). I have tried the remedies suggested in response to questions from two other users but with no effect. What might be the interesting reason for Firefox to exhibit this surprising, non-standard behaviour? Kind regards \ Jan Altena

    Try to modify the ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled pref on the about:config page from the default value -1 to 0 or 1 to see if that makes the touch pad work.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    Close and restart Firefox after changing the ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled pref.
    *ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled (default:-1) (-1:autodetect;0:off;1:on)

  • ThinkPad X1 Carbon scrolling not working

    Hello,
    I just received my new ThinkPad X1 Carbon (Type 20A7). This is running with Windows 7, 64 bits.
    Scrolling from the touchpad (with one or two fingers) does not work.
    I tried installing the latest drivers from Lenovo's website (although you would assume that the latest drivers are installed when you buy a new machine), but that did not help.
    When I go to the control panel and to the advanced settings for the touchpad, I can see that the scrolling features are activated. They just don't work.
    Sometimes, I notice that after startup, scrolling works for a couple minutes, then not anymore.
    Could you please help me out?
    Thank you,
    Cheers.

    Hi realkirua, and welcome to the Lenovo User Community!
    Remember that this is users helping users here, moderated by volunteers like me. Although there is some Lenovo presence, they can't patrol the entire community. They do try to help with some of the broader issues.
    The odd part about what you describe is that the UltraNav driver install fails (6hgx81ww.exe). Have you tried manually uninstalling the old one (Control Panel>Programs and Features) then runnning the installer again?
    I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

  • Why does snagit auto scroll not work in firefox version 3.6.8 and can it be fixed

    I have used Snagit v9.1 with Firefox for a long time through many updates but when I updated to Firefox version 3.6.8 the auto scroll stoped working, I did go back to an earlier version of Firefox and it worked OK.

  • Why do a lot of the Themes not work with Firefox 4.0?

    Just upgraded to 4.0 and looking for a theme to use, but alot of them are grayed out and says not compatible with version of Firefox I am running.

    You will have to wait for the person who built the theme to update it to work with version4.0

  • Why do certain functions of "click on" not work with Firefox and Ebay and my mailboxes?

    When going to my mail (especially Yahoo mail) I cannot click on the boxes that allow me to delete or whatever. In addition, I can't hardly use Firefox at all with Ebay and other sites because of a similar problem. For instance, the cursor won't even change to a 'hand' on "Sign In" on Ebay nor will it allow me to change the page number if I have multiple items for sale or buying. I've had to switch all of my bill paying sites to IE for this same reason. Got any ideas? I'm currently using Firefox 17.0.1.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • Why is scrolling not working with multiple youtube embeds layed out vertically in a stack on one page?

    Why is scrolling not working with multiple youtube embeds layed out in a stack on one page?

    Hi ,  
      This is a sort of performance issue , because your program takes more than the max time set for the program to execute in foreground.
    There are many stuff in program which will hamper your performance.
    I will list down a few
    1. SELECT *
    FROM konp
    INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE konp_itab
    FOR ALL ENTRIES IN a363_itab
    WHERE knumh EQ a363_itab-knumh
    in this statement you are using for all entries a363_itab , but before this statement you are not checking if the table has any entry or not , please do remember that for all entries has this characterstic , that if you internal table does not contain any record , then all the records are selected from the database table. So in this case if you table a363_itab is empty , so what you want is no data must be seelcted from table konp , but what will happen is all the records in KONP will be seelcted.
    2. While retreiving data you are using seelct * even though you do not require all the fields , an example is
    <b>SELECT *
    FROM mkpf
    INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE mkpf_itab
    FOR ALL ENTRIES IN mseg_itab
    WHERE mblnr EQ mseg_itab-mblnr.</b>
    in this your internal table contains only 2 fields
    <b>mblnr LIKE mkpf-mblnr, "Number of Material Document
    bldat LIKE mkpf-bldat, "Document Date in Document</b> , but to get these 2 fields you are selecting all the fields of the table.
    3. In select you are using into corresponding fields of table , it is not a good practice., so please avoidd it.
    Please understand that you must try to reduce the access to your database tables and try to keep it minimal , because this same thing may happen becasue data in DEV is very less compared to the volume of data in production , so a program working in DEV will take much more time in PRD if not written properly and may result in timeouts , as in your case.
    Please try to make chanegs to the prorgam and see if it works.
    In case you have more queries , please do revert back.
    Regards
    Arun

  • 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 adobe photoshop elements 12 not working. it says initializing and then it says there is an error and closes itself

    why is my adobe photoshop elements 12 not working. it says initializing then error and shuts itself down.

    Three things you can try:
    1. Clean the superdrive with a proprietory CD/DVD lens cleaner that uses tiny brushes.
    2. Perform an SMC reset:
    Resetting the SMC (System Management Controller) on Intel-based Macs:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964  and

    If you are using a Wireless Keyboard:

    3. Try the free DVD player VLC:

  • Hyperlink with tracking applied does not work in PDF

    We use lots of web addresses in our advertising and generally the web addresses automatically convert to hyperlinks when we distill the files and make PDFs. Recently we've had two instances where someone applied tracking or justification to the line of text containing the url to make it spread across the page. When we make our PDF the url is not clickable. Is there anyway around this? We tried actually creating a hyperlink manually in InDesign by using the Hyperlinks panel and entering the address, but that didn't work either.

    Peter,
    We'll look into that. We already do two separate PDFs for print and web, but
    we are distilling both right now. Wouldn't be too much of a problem to
    change to exporting the web version I don't think.
    I did a test, just curious, is there a way to keep it from putting a black
    box around the link on the PDF?
    Thanks for your help! We appreciate it!

    Subject: Hyperlink with tracking applied does not work in PDF
    Distilled PDF uses Postscript which does not support hyperlinks and
    interactivity. To make your hyperlinks in ID you'll need to export and check
    the Include Hyperlinks and Include Interactiviity boxes.
    Your printer doesn't need hyperlinks because they don't work on a printed
    page. The requirements for print and interactive PDF are quite different, and
    you may find you need to make two versions.
