When I try to highlight text on my Mac, it has stopped auto-scrolling down when I reach the bottom of the screen. What's happened?

Tip for best answer: M$1.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Hey Mikey,

As you may already know, MACs have floating screens, so if you scroll past/below the file/program you are working on, the auto-scrolling will stop working.

However, if you keep the scrolling cursor on the bottom 'bar' of the floating file/program or the scroll bar (to the right side of the file/program), then auto-scrolling continues until you stop it.

If the problem persists, try working with files/programs that
are totally maximised (filling the whole screen) as this will limit
the chances of pulling the cursor down too far.

Hope that helps!

Not exactly sure what to call per se, but instead of starting where you did, try starting at the end and go back up.
