An issue i experienced right after upgrading to Maveric is that when i try to mark something on screen (tapping pad/mouse, holding and moving up or down or sideways) like when you mark parts of text content to copy, then it suddenly stop/freeze like it "reaches a limit", then i have to move a little back and forth to make it go again. This goes across all browsers.

Anybody experience the same thing?
 
I've had issues with browsers and the trackpad since upgrading. Sometimes when I swipe to go back, the browser quits responding to trackpad inputs (especially gestures). Have to close and re-open the browser. It only does it if you make the swipe back gesture on a page that has nothing to go back to (i.e. the back arrow is greyed out). After much research, I stumbled across the obvious answer which was to reset the PRAM. Did that, and haven't had any problems since!

Defective trackpad? Have a friend with one to borrow and test?
