Screen Keeps Scrolling Up
Screen suddenly scrollingSo there are a couple of things that come to mind right away. First off, ifit's scrolling down the page, scroll back up. What you were typing may still bethere.I'm not sure exactly why you're losing anything if the page is simplyscrolling down. And you notice it soon enough so that you're not typing intosome random place.
So that's the very first thing I would think of. Immediatelyscroll back to where your typing was happening - and see if it isn't all stillthere.

Why the screen scrollsNow, as to why the scrolling is happening? There can be many, many differentreasons for this. By far, by far, the most common (especially since youindicate you're using a laptop, a relatively new laptop) is that people's palmscan touch the touch pad while typing.If your hands are held kind of low, and something brushes against the touchpad, the computer may interpret that as a mouse click. A mouse click ismovement. It moves your screen around. Touchpad shortcut strokesIn fact if it's scrolling down, there are actually other things that youcould be doing on the touch pad that could cause things to scroll down andscroll down rapidly.

Keystrokes for scrollingThe other thing that comes to mind is to be extra careful when you're typing- and I say that because many of the page movement commands are available askeystrokes.So, if you end up typing something like, I don't know, page down (orsomething close to the page down key) but you hit accidentally Control PageDown - then all of a sudden you're telling the program to scroll to the bottomof the page.That sounds like what might be happening here.And there are other keystrokes. Before I go too far I should say that thereare other keystrokes that involve letters that may, very well, result in oddunexpected movement. If for some reason you accidentally happen to have theControl key pressed, or the Shift key pressed, or the Alt key pressed, or anycombination of those, the screen could move.So that's something else that I would be extra careful of. Sensitive trackpadsBut by far, my money is on the track pad.
It may be perhaps a little toosensitive. Or perhaps your fingers are somehow brushing against it and somehowconfusing the program into doing some movement that you're not expecting.One thing you light look at is in Control Panel, underMouse, there may be an option to either change the sensitivityof the track pad or disable it completely.What I would recommend you do is disable the trackpad completely. At leastas a test to see if the problem goes away. If the problem does go away, thenyou know that the problem is somehow related specifically to the track pad -either brushing against it, or it's simply too sensitive.Now I do have to say that this is a device specific Control Panel option;not all laptops, not all track pads have the ability to disable them. I'veheard of people taping a piece of cardboard over the track pad, temporarily, tomake sure that nothing is touching it. Those are the kinds of things to try tosee if you can't rule this out.(Transcript lightly edited for readability.).

And when I lose whole emails or paragraphs, just like Mark J said, it is because the dumb machine suddenly highlights the whole writing and before you even notice, you type the next key and it's all gone.
Control Z does the trick. And a sensitive trackpad doesn't require that you touch the actual pad. Resting your fingers on the neutral plastic next to the trackpad can also make it act funny. When I run into these problems, I remove my left hand from the computer entirely. Alan FarrMarch 19, 2013 12:48 PMA worse thing by far when typing with the touchpad active, is when one unwittingly brushes it whilst one has the Shift key already depressed in preparation for typing an uppercase letter. The text between the position in the text and the position of the mouse cursor is selected and the next letter pressed replaces everything inadvertently selected.If there is only one Undo possible, it may be impossible to Ctrl+Z enough times in order to recover the deleted text.If one has a mouse available, far better to connect it and deactivate the touchpad during the period one is typing.
