Trackball horizontal Access

**jobeppo** · 07-15-2009, 10:58 AM

My Nextel 8350i Trackball will not allow scrolling left or right just up and down.

Is there a way to use the keyboard to navigate around...

Just for temporary no doubt !!

Thank You.

no but if you push in on the ball and scroll the direction it is not working it it should fix it

Fantastic!

I just found this thread because mine lost it's down function.

Works like a charm now.

Thanks!

You might want to try cleaning your trackball with rubbing alcohol. Just a small drop on the ball. Then roll the trackball around with a micro fiber cloth, that would be wrapped around your finger. DO NOT USE A QTIP!!! (The fibers from the QTip could get into the track ball...) That should clean the trackball and should help with the trackball to move in all directions.

I do this when my trackball starts acting up, and it works every time for me.
