    for some reason scrolling will not work on some windows/programs. so far i've noticed that i can't scroll in itunes with both the trackpoint and the trackpad. another place is the personalize menu (right click desktop and personalize). is anyone else having this problem too and why does it do that?

    alright i modified the .dat file according to some of the posts i found on the site and it does work however is there any way to enable horizontal scrolling in itunes and other programs? lastly can anyone go to the personalize menu through right clicking desktop and see if the window is scrollable in the themes menu?

    yeah it's weird but scrolling works "almost" everywhere else. thanks for trying it for me though. i guess synaptics just needs to improve their drivers.

    i just checked out an x100e in the store and it was the same. it's such a random problem lol.

    also how often does synaptics update their drivers to support scrolling in more applications?
