Since upgrading to Firefox 5.0, the UP and DOWN keys cause page to jump and not to smooth scroll. I've tried various combinations of smooth/auto scroll in Tools/Options but n0 success. The keys work fine in Thunderbird and anything not using Firefox 5.0. No problem with previous versions. Any suggestions? It does not make much difference which website I am visiting. I use Windows7 in my laptop (Medion Akoya) and have not noticed any other problems. Thanks for taking the trouble to read this.

Click the orange Firefox button, go to Options | Options | Advanced and in the General menu, checkmark the option called "Use smooth scrolling".

If it's already checked, but doesn't appear to improve matters, install this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/smoothwheel/ It should make a difference even though you have a laptop.

You may have switched on caret browsing.

You can press press F7 (on Mac: fn + F7) to toggle caret browsing on/off.

I assume that you are on a Mac?

In that case use:

  • Firefox > Preferences > Advanced : General: Accessibility: [ ] "Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages"

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences

  • Windows: Firefox (Tools) > Options
  • Mac: Firefox > Preferences
  • Linux: Edit > Preferences
