Scrolling help Can someone help me figure out scrolling? I'm using this with my work computer, so maybe I'm unable to configure the settings properly. But I can't figure out how to scroll in the same way you'd scroll with a scroll wheel. Whenever I scroll up, for example, it selects the text. Any help greatly appreciated - thank you!

I'm certain you're right about scrolling for Windows, however for the Mac it's a different story. The user guide and the SetPoint software included on the CD are for Windows XP and Vista only. The Logitech website offers no help and no software for Mac. The Mac recognizes the Marble Mouse right away and it works as it should-sans those small scroll buttons. Too bad!John Schubert

Update: J Mead has a point. I recall reading early on, and trying the scrolling feature in this mouse with my PC. At least for me, it proved cumbersome, which is why I never used that aspect. It was the best mouse for the time. But as I said, Mac's fantastic & easy touchpad technology has really turned me away from needing anything like this anymore.

I've had problems with them. The 2 finger scroll does not work. The other options work though, such as setting it to maximize a page with 2 finger tap or returning to desktop with 3 finger tap. You can set those to perform other options too. But you are right, finger scrolling does not work.

I think you push the button on the side and then scroll with the wheel. I got stuck in a Chinese menu for a couple of days. Google the model and get some English instructions. They help but are not perfect. Sorry it took so long to respond.

Sometimes. I just resized my browser window so I'd have a scroll bar at the bottom. I clicked the scroll wheel and the mouse icon changed to the circle with arrows in all four directions: up, down, left, and right. When I moved the mouse left and right, it scrolled appropriately. Then I tried the same thing in Word. No go--up and down only. And in Windows Explorer, there is no wheel scrolling at all. (Note that all of this was testing the scroll function by clicking the wheel, not just regular scrolling with the wheel which works everywhere it's supposed to or attempting to move the wheel itself from side to side which doesn't happen on this mouse.)

You can roll the wheel to scroll but the touch is not as sensitive. To have direct touch with the wheel you could carefully cut out the circle that covers the wheel with an exacto knife.

physical buttons. the scrolling in the middle is like a touch screen but you can also click it near the top and bottom and set those as shortcuts.

No. You cannot scroll with this mouse. I wrote this review during my PC/Windows days. Now that I use a Mac, I am hooked on their touch pad scrolling. So, if you're a Mac user, this mouse is irrelevant. If you're a PC user, and scrolling is important for you, then this mouse is not it.

it take a time to move from regular wheel mouse to touch (vertical and horizontal). Same time it has free scroll if you release a finger from touch (like at tablet) that also unsual but usable. Keep in mind that ergonomic faaar from regular mouse because size is significally smaller and thinner. I get it as travel mouse for tablet but start to use it on laptop easilly.

The question needs to be defined. Are you seeking to "Mute Audio" to the scroll wheel?That is very confusing since scroll down would mute audio and scroll up would enable audio.Audio would be turning on and off almost constantly.

I don't a see a middle click option in the basic settings but there is a flick, tap to page up and down setting. I did discover a middle click option in the App Specific (e.g. Chrome, MS Office) settings. I also discovered there are controls to set the vertical scrolling speed which were set to slow by default. Putting that closer to 50% greatly improved my scrolling experience.

It's toggle-able between smooth and click scroll. Click scroll may be loose depending on your preference. Seems fine for me.

Use the scroll bar in the window (click drag), page up/down or the arrow keys. But honestly, this is a child's mouse made for small hands and simple games.

yup, scrolling is pretty choppy.. no fixes that i have found yet - i now am used to not scrolling with the scroll wheel - great for ergonomics - have had no pain in the arm / wrist since i have it ..

its referred to as multi-gesture. with 2 fingers (same hand, fingers side-by-side) drag down or up on the touchpad to move a scrollable page.

YES, you can scroll. I am NOT a techie, and I figured it out. It's just like Feejo said. Go to your mouse settings, then click on "set-point"--you'll see the configurations there. I love this trackball and the price is right!

I'm not sure, I haven't tried. I don't usually use that since from my experience, it messes with the mouse scroll speed.
