Vertical Scroll Bar Missing From Toolbars on a Mac

Make the scrollbar always visible along a webpage or in a drop-down menu when using a Mac computer

If you are using a Mac computer while working with Constant Contact, and your scroll bar has been disappearing in certain windows or drop-down menus, you're most likely running into a Mac setting that hides the scroll bar when you're not actively scrolling.

Clicking in the area you want to scroll in and dragging your finger up and down on the mouse or using the directional arrows on your keyboard lets you see the scroll bar, but it's not always apparent where to click. A more permanent option is to change the settings on your Mac to always make the scroll bar visible:

1. In the Menu bar, click Apple Menu > System Preferences.
   
   
    
2. Click General.
   
   
    
3. Next to the "Show scroll bars" heading, select "Always."
   
   
    

This ensures that no matter what window or drop down menu you're viewing, even outside of Constant Contact, you always have access to the scroll bar.
