Software :: Unable To Scroll Down Easily / Might Mouse Scrolls Up Easily?
Mar 24, 2009
My 2.5 year old (wired) mighty mouse gave up the ghost recently, and I just replaced it with a new one today.
The thing is... it doesn't seem to scroll "down" as easily as it scrolls "up" and "left to right". (as it is right now, I have to apply a lot more pressure to scroll down than I do to scroll up or laterally)
Is there an adjustment I can make to get this thing to scroll "down" as easily and freely as it does "up"?Has anyone else had this sort of issue, or is it just me? Ok, Thanks.
Does anyone know an easy way to pull apart the mighty mouse to repair the scroll ball? It won't scroll down (won't make the scratchy sound as if the sensor inside is clogged up or something). Has anyone had this problem? It still scrolls upward.
Recently my Mighty Mouse has had a tendency to only scroll up, the ball will move down but the page or website, etc I'm in won't scroll down, I've tried restarting, unplugging and plugging in, nothing. Anybody have any idea what's wrong?
On windows, when you open a photo within a folder, you have the options to scroll through that entire folder just by clicking the right or left arrow key. Is there any way to do this on a Mac? It's a pain having to click on every photo, close it and open the next one, just to see all the photos in one folder.
Info: MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014), iOS 8.1.1
does your Magic mouse have any swivel marks or look alike scratches on the top of the mouse where you scroll or the "trackpad" just by normal use. You can see this by putting it up against direct light from a lamp or flashlight and looking at it at an angle. Mine has started to develop them and I just wanted to know if this is just normal usage.
The scroll ball on my mighty mouse scrolls forward sideways but not back anymore, just happened right now too. Has this happened to anyone before and how do I fix this
I'm running Safari 5.02 on a 15" Macbook Pro running 10.6.6. ALL TOO OFTEN I will attempt to access a page [URL] and it will not load. All I get is an eternal spinning wheel. I have to launch Chrome or Firefox to achieve success and they load the page without any difficulty. I've suspected flash content conflict but have installed all the latest updates, but still no success.
Is there an app that lets me disconnect/connect Leopard from my DSL quickly and easily, maybe from the desktop? Is this the only OS in existence that doesn't allow for this? Previous Macs had Internet Disconnect; on my PC I can do it with 2 clicks. I know i can reconfigure each time in Sys Prefs, but what a pain.
Has anyone gotten a dent on their new MBA?It seems to me like thin aluminum might be a bad material choice since it will dent instead of flex like plastic does. So just wondering on the toughness of it.
I have several folders backed up on an external firewire drive that is not always connected. Is there software or a way within OS X or Automator, etc. to easily synchronize the folder on my PowerBook with the one on the external drive without re-rewriting the entire folder and subfolders?
I want to run some terminal commands fairly often... yet I don't want to have to type them. I just switched from windows, so I need some help as to how to do this.
In windows I would've just used a batch file to run command prompt commands. I need something that will let me just run it and it will automatically run the commands.
just got a 2nd ATI 3870 for my Mac Pro 2008. THe fan is just as loud or slightly louder than the 1st one. *ugh*. So I downloaded smcFanControl 2.2.2 to see if I can up the fan settings to cool the machine down to hopefully slow lower the fans on the 3870's.
I just bought a clear speck case for the MBA. I noticed that the case weighs a little bit and when the top cover is on, at a certain angle, it closes the MBA due to the sheer weight.
Over time, will this loosen the hinge?
On another point, how the **** do you get the top cover off easily? I scratched the cover with a credit card the first time around! The thing is almost impossible to pry off!
I want to work out how to easily delete photos in aperture. I'm talking the crap ones that I have imported (either from camera or an unedited folder) and want to get rid of entirely (not versions). It seems ridiculously cumbersome, with 3 clicks needed.
I'm ex-windows and I could just scroll through and delete, happy as Larry.
I have about 40 documents I'd like to merge into one huge document. How do I do that all at once? I don't want to open them individually and merge them into the document one by one.
Now for those of you who used mbp for a while, how easily do the aluminum unibody dent/scratch? it seems every single used mbp on ebay i see had some sort of dent on it. All of the mbp casings look bad, including the see thru one, they defeat the purpose of having a slick unibody mbp. The only option is those invisible films that stick onto the mbp, but they need water to install. None of them seems like good options. Anyway I am thinking of just getting a sleeve and leave the mbp naked. Is that a good idea?
Looking for a cheap 3G to tether with my mac. Bluetooth or usb doesn't matter. Good battery life wouldn't hurt. But apart from these aspects and being cheap there's nothing i need. I just need the phone to have some 3g internet in my summer house a couple of days a year.
i really need to be able to share files quickly and easily around my house, the simplest was would to use and external HD, but i dont have one.
So i was wondering if i could partition some of my iMac's HDD and make it into a local drive, so my iBook and windows computers would literally see it as another HD, is this possible?
I am considering eliminating my MacBook pro and buying 2 iMacs,one for the office and I for home. I would use my iPad for traveling. Can I synch my documents files between the 2 iMacs?
