Screen Flickering while scrolling after update to Mavericks.

My Macbook Pro 13 inch, Mid 2012 with i5 and 4 GB RAM is having problems after updating to Mavericks. The screen keeps on flickering when I scroll through basically anything. This even happens while changing desktops. Is anybody having this problem?

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

I'm having the same problem on my 13" MBP Mid 2012. Though on my 15" MBP Late 2011 it's not an issue... 😕 I tried a clean instal per another post here but to no avail.


I find the biggest culprit, for me, is using the two finger scroll with the magic trackpad or built in trackpad to scroll. If I used the side bar to scroll down a page or folder I don't have the stuttering issue. The issue on my dock though it is a constant problem to the point i can't get to my last few icons because it spazes out and jumps around.

Having the same issue with rMBP 15' early 2013 my lunch pad flikers a bit when i open it with track pad gesture and when i close it my dock flickers for half a second also i had terrible flickering when scrolling down with safari browser but i changed my resloution and that seems to have solved the problem with safari but i am still getting the other flickers and i am pretty frustrated coz i got the laptop like 2 months ago and i am a very clean user and like my laptop to be 100% functioning correctly.
