My computer is really beginning to piss me off. Over the last few months two problems have popped up that are really driving me wild but I have no idea how to fix. I need a computer whiz, one who specifically knows the inner workings of a MacBook.
Problem One: This cropped up about a week ago and it's starting to drive me insane. For some reason when I click on a scroll bar, any scroll bar, it immediately starts to scroll down quickly, without me doing anything. So if you want to click on something at the top of the scroll bar it is impossible to get to. It's effecting everything on my computer, I can't scroll down and pick my userpics properly, I have to quickly click and hope I get the right one. I can't pick a font in Photoshop or the number of pixels for a new image because the numbers just start to scroll up or down and you can't get the one you want. It's even happening in fucking iTunes. Like on the little volume bar...if I put the circle down on minimum volume it immediately scrolls back up to maximum. WHAT. THE. FUCK.
Problem Two: I've had this one for months and I've learnt to deal with although it makes me want to scream in frustration most days. So you want to reply....on like a message board or something like that. OR you want to leave a comment to an entry right here on LJ. Well it's nearly impossible because the typing goes completely wok. I type a sentence and the end of it will disappear so I have no idea if it's there or not. I'll try to backspace a word and it leaves half the letter there so it just looks like some cut up lines. I'll try to type a word and all the letter will appear on top of themselves so you can barely see if your typing it properly. And the most annoying, your typing a sentence but the cursor is always about 5 letter behind. So say I typed
hey love your icon, I would get to
v before
hey lo would show up. Which makes it really hard to check for mistakes and then there is the whole backspacing problem when you have to fix your mistakes. It makes me want to scream. It's become so bad that now I type all my replies in word and then just paste them into the reply box, though all the ends of it disappear at least I know it's there. FUCKING PISSES ME OFF A HELLUVA LOT!!
Any computer whizzes out there who can help me out??
