OS X :: Slow Scrolling In 10.6.5?

Nov 19, 2010

I'm having an issue scrolling in all programs). Running 10.6.5, Late 2008 MBP (not uni-body). This happens when using two finger scroll or dragging the scroll bar down and up. Click (jump) to scroll is still fine.

It takes about 5-7 seconds to scroll down at all, it's like a little ripple slowly works its way down the screen. I tried shutting down programs, restarting, etc.

EDIT: Ok the click to scroll is now slow also. What gives?

Hardware :: VX Revolution Scrolling In Safari Very Slow?

Sep 22, 2007

Before I installed the Logitech software, it was perfect. But without the Logitech software, the other buttons didn't work.

After installing the software, I noticed the scrolling to be very very slow in Safari. Even after maxing out scroll speed in system pref. and the logitech soft, it's still slow!

Hardware :: Logitech VX Nano Scrolling Extremely Slow?

Sep 18, 2009

I was just looking at a long PDF file in preview and got off the computer for a bit. When I come back, the scrolling for some reason got extremely slow! I don't know what the heck happened. I have scrolling on the highest in system preferences and nothing helped. It takes very long just to get through a page. I know I could just use hyper scrolling, but it is still slow and only fast if I spin it all the way, which then goes all the way to the bottom of the page. What could be wrong?

Safari :: Running Slow - Page Scrolling Jerky?

Apr 6, 2012

Scrolling pages is jerky. It can't even keep up with my typing speed. When I am done writing a sentence, I wait and watch it type back to me. This list of websites that don't work completely correctly also is growing. These do not happen in Firefox...I hate to abandon Safari and lose all my bookmarks. What can I try to do?

MacBook :: Don't Like Two Finger Scrolling On MB?

Jun 5, 2009

Problem I have, on my last generation macbook, I would rest one finger on the track pad, and just scroll with the other one, and it would scroll down the whole screen. Now with the new macbook, I actually have to scroll with both fingers for it to actually work. Also can't get used to the two button tap, I keep doing it but mistake, mostly to the huge trackpad and me resting my fingers on it.

Anyone had this similar problems? I know it's nitpicking but I miss my old trackpad.

OS X :: Fading Colors When Scrolling?

Jul 2, 2009

So at first I thought my eyes were going. But I guess not. Sometimes when I scroll macrumors things start to fade when I let go of the scroll bar. Clicking other window corrects this. Or moving it to my other screen. Any ideas? Is this another x1900 issue?

OS X :: PDF Scrolling With Trackpad In Leopard

Jul 11, 2009

I just wanted to verify if other people experience this too. Ever since I upgraded to Leopard over a year ago, PDFs scroll like **** from the trackpad, both in Preview and in Safari. They scroll painfully slow, and then suddenly jump to way too fast. I don't understand why they don't just scroll naturally like everything else in the OS. They used to scroll fine in Tiger.

MacBook Pro :: Getting Noise When Scrolling?

Feb 20, 2012

I have a 3 month old MacBook Pro 13inch, whenever I 2 finger scroll on webpages in chrome or safari there is a scratching sound which comes from the top left of the mac. The sound is similar to processor noise but can be louder. I have noticed that the sound is less amplified when running without the power cable attached, but is still there.

Mac Pro :: OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 - Dragging And Scrolling Lag

Aug 26, 2014

Since upgrading to 10.9.4 i've been beset with numerous bugs and general odd system behavior. Previous to this update I had experience lag when using my Wacom Intuos 4 tablet. For example when doing a preview render in Maya the tablet would become unresponsive and laggy. This never occurred on my old Mac Pro 2008. 

I noticed there was an update to the Wacom Drivers (6.3.8-2) so I did the update. After updating I've been experiencing dramatically slow screen redraw. So whenever I drag a window or scroll, the image stutters, flickers and lags as it tries to redraw to keep up with mouse position. This makes it impossible to use the computer.  

I uninstalled the Wacom drivers and the lag and redraw errors persist. I looked at Activity Monitor to if it was some other system resource like Spotlight that was momentarily hogging resources. The only thing I notice is that the dreaded "kernel_task" seems to be using a lot of ram (1.46 GB) and cpu time (usually at the top of the list). Also, "com.apple.IconServicesAgent" seems to be using a lot of CPU time (usually #2 in the list). 

Here's my EtreCheck system report: EtreCheck version: 1.9.15 (52)Report generated August 26, 2014 at 11:34:29 AM EDT Hardware Information: ?  Mac Pro (Late 2013) (Verified)  Mac Pro - model: MacPro6,1  1 3.5 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon E5 CPU: 6 cores  32 GB RAM Video Information: ?

MacBook Pro :: Scrolling With Two Fingers Freezes?

Oct 19, 2010

When browsing using Firefox (Haven't tried other browsers) and using the two finger gesture to scroll, it will stop scrolling, won't go down or up, and the only way to get it unstuck is to wiggle the page slider and then it will work again. Is this a Firefox, OSX, or hardware issue and is there a fix to it?

OS X :: Two Finger Scrolling Won't Work In Certain Situations?

Nov 2, 2010

just a problem that i hope is easily fixable! this has been happening for a while now but it's only just started to annoy me now that i've realised a whole website won't work with it (beatport.com)

basically when i two finger scroll with safari it works almost all the time, but when my mouse if on top if certain things, usually flash animations and the sort, it just doesn't work. embedded videos are normally the culprits, but like i said earlier a whole website that seems to be mostly flash based, beatport.com if you'd like to test yourself, just won't work at all unless i put my pointer right around the edge of the web page.

is this a known problem that i'm going to have to deal with? if not, does anyone know of a fix? i presume it's software based so hopefully an easy(ish) fix!

PowerPC :: Two Finger Scrolling For IBook G3?

Aug 4, 2006

Before somebody says it, this will not support G3's.

I recently aquired a 900MHz 32mb VRAM iBook G3, and it's a great machine, using it right now as a matter of a fact, but I've gotten so used to my MacBook's two finger scrolling feature on the trackpad and I while I can deal with hitting the down arrow, it would be nice if there were some hack for the G3 iBooks (see notice above) to enable that feature.

Does anybody know of an application (besides iScroll) or a hack in terminal or something that can add this feature to my machine?

PowerPC :: Two Finger Scrolling On An IBook?

Mar 5, 2008

Last night I was playing with my wife's 1.33 Mhz G4 iBook (12", last revised edition) and I noticed that it supported the two finger scrolling in Safari. Pretty cool I thought, but didn't think that this was even possible with older Mac laptops. The iBook is running 10.5 with the most recent software updates.

Did Apple slip an enhancement in for iBooks or has it always been there?

OS X :: Ripples And Waves / Scrolling In Safari?

Jul 15, 2008

When i scroll in safari the contents in the window become slightly distorted creating a ripple or wave like effect in the middle of the page.

I've read several reports from as much as a year and half ago about this issue, but haven't been able to find out whether its been resolved. Apple has a support doc from 2007 that describes the problem but offers no solution: (URL)

I'm running 10.5.2 ... and i've only seen the problem on macbook pros, but the apple support doc implies that it's an os x issue with ATI video cards.

OS X :: Two Finger Scrolling Like IPhone's Contacts?

Feb 21, 2009

After getting my Macbook Pro, I found out about the two finger scrolling feature on the trackpad and it had made browsing around a lot more easier.

While scrolling, it reminded me of my mother's iPhone scrolling while looking for contacts, where you do a finger gesture and it continues to scroll down even though your fingers are off it already.

Is there are feature to be used with the Macbook Pro's trackpad?

Edit: I think I found an existing answer after playing around with keywords in Google
