Scrolling Issue in macOS Monterey (21A5522h) M1 Macbook Pro

I spent 3 hours upgrading and now can't work - mouse clicks, and that's all - no scrolling or swiping.

Massive problem for me.

After I upgraded my Macbook Air M1 2020 to Monterey 12.0.1, the scroll sometimes started to revert the direction randomly using the trackpad. It is intermitent. I also use the app Scroll Reverser to revert the mouse direction and dont't you if this is the bug cause.

I have the same problem on both my M1 mac book air (2021) and M1 mac mini. As soon as I updated to Monterrey I could no longer scroll by stroking the mouse.

Similar issue after updating to Monterey on my 2020 iMac 5k 27" in both Safari and Firefox in page scrolling is gone and scroll bars are missing UNTIL I resize the window, then the scroll bar will briefly return, but soon disappear until the window is resized again, and in page scroll is gone no matter what.

Same issue here. I am on the latest version on an M1 MBAIR. Problem occured with the latest OS upgrade.

Same problem here with Air M1. I bought a new Magic Mouse 2 and it started to happen. But it doesn't happen with the first version of the Magic Mouse… Another thing that also happens is losing the caps lock light on the Magic Keyboard wit num pad. Really annoying. Turning Bluetooth on and off for each one or restarting the Mac solves both issues but for me this is not a solution…

I'm also experiencing this issue.

macOS Monterey 12.0.1 - latest official version

MacBook M1 Pro 14 (2021)

I have MacBook Pro M1 2021 15.1. I have similar issue. When I swipe right it scrolls back. I even tried Magic Trackpad it behaves same. It is very irritating. i will be happy if some one have the solution.

Same here – Monterey 12.1 MBP2021 M1 Max

same- page jumps on chrome. I'm trying other browsers to see if it's a chrome thing?

that and the fact the space bar randomly doesn't work or ties words together. so awesome you pay 2 grand plus for a computer and they act like you should not expect perfection or a fix in the first week.

Does anyone know if there is a new update on the way for this? I really don't want to drive 45 min to go see a genius that clicked an update..... anyone?

Same scrolling issue on a one week old MacBook Pro 14" M1 Pro 10 core, macOS Monterey 12.0.1

I have scrolling issues using the tracking, on Monterey 12.1 (21C52) on MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2021).

There are random jumps when scrolling with 2 fingers using the trackpad, in different apps - Safari; XCode...

Posted a feedback using Feedback Assistant.

Scrolling with mouse wheel stops working after sleep regularly, on Monterey 12.1 (21C52) on MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2021). Turning mouse off/on again does not help, have to reboot.

Having this issue as well. Has anyone had any luck returning it due to this issue? I'm having this issue on my laptops main retina display as well.

Happening on 12.1

Magic Mouse 2, once resume from sleep, click, double click, movement works fine, scrolling not functioning at all

Disconnect/reconnect magic mouse does however resolve.

Real PIA though

I have the same problem on a 2021 MacBook Pro 14-inch (Monterey 12.1 - so doesn't look like it's fixed in 12.0.1).

Problem occurs for me when two finger scrolling. It randomly stops responding and keeping the fingers down and moving them around when it occurs does nothing. If I lift one finger then the mouse responds and if I lift two fingers and place down again scrolling continues to work (annoying when continuously scrolling down or up a page to have it stop randomly).

For me this was caused by enabling low power mode. After disabling it, the issue went away. 

Same issue here with a 2021 Macbook Pro 14 inch (Monterey 12.0.1)

The issue only seems to occur when the trackpad isn't touched for a few minutes. Hope they fix it soon as it's really annoying having to reload pages constantly.

I just managed to fix this issue on my system.

Go to System Preferences > Trackpad > Scroll & Zoom. Unselect the check box 'Scroll direction: Natural'. Try to scroll in a website, scrolling now worked for me, albeit in the old, reversed way. Then re-select 'Scroll direction: Natural'.

This fixed it for me. Too early to say if it's just a temporary fix. I am running Monterey macOS 12.1 (21C52) on a 16" MacBook Pro, M1 Pro.

Same issue here with a 14” M1 Macbook Pro on 12.1. It is very annoying as I just got it and scrolling stops randomly and I have to lift my fingers and re-scroll on the trackpad.

Turning off inertia fixes it in a way, but its kinda worse to scroll without inertia.

I’m downloading 12.2 beta to see if its fixed there, if not I will take it to the apple store and ask to return it.

You're a Genius!!! Disabling low power mode fixed the issue for me. Thanks so much jgdavies!!

I have the exact same problem and I'm on 12.1 (21C52). This issue is so annoying... I'm planning to go to my old MacBook Air 2015. There are no new updates... Is a brand new MacBook M1 Pro 2021

Monterey's mouse sliding is also dead as a doornail.

MacOS now has two mouse scrolling performances, one in Chrome or any electron app, and one in native apps and systems. The former is silky with pleasant acceleration, while the latter is painfully damped. I don't know what happened in the development of the new system.

It seems that the scrolling inertia setting for native apps is locked in. For example, by turning off "inertia" in preferences, the inertia of native apps remains unchanged, only changed in Chrome.

I sincerely hope that this problem can be checked by Apple. Now macOS is not as cute to me as it used to be.

For a quick look at this problem, compare scrolling performances in vscode and in Mail app.

I use Magic Mouse 2, Monterey 12.1, MacBook Air with M1 chip.

Apple please, do something with Viber scrolling.

Hello,
