Mouse Flickering Issues

Hello.
I've on an iMac (24-inch, early 2009) on 10.5.8 OSX Leopard.
For the past 1 month, I've been experiencing rapid flickering of the mouse cursor. This happens regularly when I'm using firefox. The only way to get out of that situtation is to press command+f3, but recently, it's been more regular, and annoying.
I'm wondering whether my system has been infected by a Mac virus.
Any solutions to rectify this situation or Snow Leopard is the only way to go?

Please help. Problem still persists.

  • Mouse flickers on remote viewed workstation

    Workstations are winXPsp2, using ZfD7sp1IR1--when remote viewing the
    workstations the mouse cursor on the workstation being viewed flickers. If
    set to poll full screen it flickers about once a second. If set to normal
    refresh, and the target workstation is viewing a rapidly changing screen
    (like an online game) the mouse flickers constantly. Is there a way to
    overcome this problem? Thank you--Chris G

  • TS3232 I have the mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter firmware 1.03 and I still have screen flickering issues

    I have the mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter firmware 1.03 and I still have massive screen flickering issues on a Mac Mini 2012.
    I am using a Dell 30" monitor (it's the Samsung screen just rebranded) connected to a WD 4TB Thunderbolt drive connected to the Mac Mini.
    The screen is usable for the most part when I've just started the computer (although today I started having issues after a fresh restart) but if even just the screen goes to sleep, or the computer goes to sleep and I wake it later, I start to have massive flickering to black and occasionally to snow.
    The effect seems to be more likely to arise when I'm on heavy graphics-intensive websites or programs (eg, Tumblr feed with lots of GIF images or working in Adobe Premiere), but once it starts shutting down those programs has no effect, the screen keeps flickering wildly.
    The problem improved after the 1.03 firmware upgrade (for a while it was flickering uncontrollably ALL the time and was virtually unusable) but it has not gone away.
    Any suggestions would be very welcome, either for how to fix this issue or how to get Apple to, you know, let me TELL THEM that their adapter firmware fix has NOT solved the issue, since my phone support has expired. :/

    I have a new Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter to allow my original Apple 30" Cinema Display to connect to the new Mac Pro.  Shipped straight from Apple, it is firmware version 1.03.  I've never had flickering issues, but the display will often go black (possibly after a screen power save) and not come back.  when this happens I am still able to connect to and use the Mac via remote connection.  But the only way to get the screen back is either to unplug the adapter and plug it back in to the Mac, or to shut down and power up the Mac.  This may be a separate issue, so I'll also post it standalone...

  • Flickering Issue with RGB Curves in Adobe Premiere CC (2014) version

    I've been an Adobe Premiere user since Premiere 6.5 and have never encountered any serious issues with the software. However in this most recent Creative Cloud update I am have a flickering issue when using RGB Curves, the color correction effect I use most often. When the effect is applied, there seems to be a shift in the shadows between a "crushed" black and a "flat, or faded" black every other frame. I've been using this latest update for about a week and haven't had any other issues aside from this one.
    Unfortunately this is huge issue at the moment due to a deadline I am facing in which RGB Curves has been used as the primary color correction tool on the entire project (multiple episodes). I would simply revert to a previous version of CC but I know that the new updates are never backwards compatible. Since the project has been saved in the CC (2014) update, reverting to previous software versions would be impossible. I am currently exploring exporting the XML from the CC (2014) projects and importing it into a previous version of the software.
    Please let me know if anyone out there is experiencing any similar issues or if there are any suggestions on how to solve this issue. Thanks!

    I am experiencing flickering issues as well. However my issues are with the Fast Color Corrector and the Three Way Color Corrector. It seems as if the color correction tools are causing intermittent flickering on some people's systems.
    Additionally when I converted some old PPCC 7.2.2 projects which had the Three Way Color Corrector applied, some clips in sequences would come up as a green screen in the program monitor. If I turned the TWCC off the footage would display correctly in the program window. If I turn the TWCC back on it would display the green screen again.
    I haven't found a solution to the flickering but to solve the green screen issue I have to remove the effect, then re apply it. I guess for whatever reason, the 2014 version of PP has issues with 7.2.2 projects where the TWCC was applied.
    I'm hoping Adobe will address this soon with an update for the various bugs that have been reported.

  • HT4241 Hdmi flickering issues.

    My HDMI adaptor is constantly flickering! Please help! My hdmi adaptor used to work fine, I have tried different adaptors, different displays different hdmi cables with no luck, my brothers macbook still works fine! please help thanks. I have searched for a firmware update but Im not good at navigating around this site. dont seem to be having any luck!

    Welcome to the forum.
    I've got one question, regarding this statement,
    But when the edited file is exported and viewd on TV screen, I notice flickering issues when we have fast movement camera or people.
    How are you displaying the AV on the TV? Are you going to a DVD/BD, or is the TV hooked up to the computer?
    There might be some Interlacing issues, and some improvement might be possible, but like John T. states, MPEG is not an ideal source to begin with, due to the heavy compression. If you then go to DVD, you are compressing yet again, and what you see is an artifact of the multiple compression used.
    Good luck, and let us know more details about your display/delivery.

    i am having flickering issues with my screen lately and i adjusted the brightness and have done many resets and i cant get it to stop.  there is also blurring of lines from white lettering to dark screen. does anyone know a fix for this issue?
    thanx

    Hey anr8384,
    Thanks for the question, and great troubleshooting so far. I understand you are experiencing issues with your iPhone 4s display. The following resource outlines troubleshooting steps for these symptoms:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Display image issues
    This can include bright or dark pixels, lines in video, or sections of video missing.
    1. Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    2. Verify the issue is not content related, by viewing different content.
    3. If the image is too dark, adjust the brightness. In General Settings choose Brightness and Wallpaper and slide the slider.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.
    Thanks,

  • Mouse panning issues in Flipview

    Hi,
    I have a problem in mouse panning issues in WinJS Flipview control.
    Here is my sample:
    https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=533F417A2E04AEC4!1009
    My problem is: I can zoom images in flipview and panning, zooming or scrolling them via finger touch.
    So, is there a simple way to enable mouse panning, scrolling?
    I think it is useless to zoom if the user cannot drag image by mouse if there is no touch device.
    Thanks so much.
    Nick

    I think adding MSGesture is a fine idea. What you're experiencing here is just a difference in the native workings of touch and mouse, so you have to manually compensate for these differences.
    Because panning and pinch/zoom in touch mode give you behaviors that are not directly translatable to mouse actions, the mouse does not interpret similar actions unless you ask it do.
    Panning with a finger is the most natural thing to expect for touchmode, but it does not directly translate into click and drag, and for that reason, mouse does not pan.  However, you can just add the event so that you get the same behavior.  It's
    extra work, but you have to take into account that not all developers want the same behavior.  For example, I expect that someone will say "I don't want to pan when I touch the screen, I want to draw a line, like I can with a mouse.  How do
    I disable this behavior?"
    I hope this clears things up for you.

  • Mouse clicking issues

    For the last 2 weeks or so I all of a sudden have mouse clicking issues on a 2009 iMac. The mouse (I have tried 3 different ones from apple and Logitech) seem to be able to open files etc. on a click. I have to click repeatedly to get it done. When I run the disc utility it mostly goes away. Now, I run the disc repair every morning to make it go away. Annoying. I have seen other people having similar issues - it sounds like a OS issue????

    This same scenario has happened to me sporadically over the past few months and seems to be increasing. I have the Logitech Cordless Optical Mouse for Notebooks. Got it 3 years ago for use with my G4 PowerBook (1.5 GHz, 2 GB RAM, OS 10.4.8). First I thought it was the batteries, but then realized that if I'd just wait a few minutes the problem would usually go away. Nothing new electrical on my desk that would cause it. Gets really annoying. The mouse becomes sluggish and the clicks are non responsive (a right click will open a sub-menu window, but then no other clicks work. Trying to move the mouse around on the screen gives spotty results - stops and starts - as if I'm moving it on a reflective surface. After multiple clicks the window goes away. I can disconnect the USB transmitter and have complete control with the mousepad.
    Sometimes the problem won't occur all day long. Other times it comes and goes multiple times during an hour. A restart will usually get it out of that overly annoying loop.
    I bought a new Logitech Mouse a few days ago, thinking mine was wearing out, but the same thing happened within minutes.
    I can only think there's some conflict with an OSX update. VERY frustrating. I don't want to go back to a wired mouse.
    So I, too, am eager for a solution.
    Thanks,

  • Flickering issue with interactive buttons

    Hi all,
    I have an interactive pdf file that is 40 pages long. I have some navigation buttons on each page, which are white triangluar shaped arrows, and they contain black rollover and click states.
    I am finding however that the buttons states (rollover) seem to flicker randomly on and off when the cursor is hovered over the button. It looks very buggy. It's simply meant to turn black, and stay black when the cursor is on the button.
    Has anyone experienced this and know of a way that I can solve this flickering issue? It's driving me totally crazy and is the last remaining issue preventing me from finishing this project and being able to distribute the file.
    I know I can just disable thje rollovers, however we need them for usability purposes.
    Any feedback or guidance is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    G

    Hi Glyphism,
    I agree Bob's responses seem unnecessarily hostile. This is a huge problem! I just purchases CD 5.5 design premium, paid @ $700.00 for the upgrade and all of the buttons and interactives in a 4-month long project were operating just fine. When I ran the Acrobat update and tried to do my latest test, all of the buttons are flickering, and I cannot adequately test my 48 page interactive pdf! I have spent months on this project, it is now due on tuesday (Oct 4th), and at the eleventh hour, I am stuck with buggy product UPDATE of all things. Why? this is absolutely unconscionable for Adobe to let a bug like this go through. I am pulling my hair out. Wish I could UN update. Steve, you seem to be very helpful on this community - any ideas? HELP!

  • Please fix mouse acceleration issue

    Is Apple doing anything to fix the mouse acceleration issue? Do they know and care? I found Windows 7 even XP mouse acceleration to be great. I really wish Apple can fix something so basic.

    I have adapted this advice from a post by nycruza
    "VOLUME Control Procedure"
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1020767&tstart=1065
    1. Obvious but indeed there are some that forget to remove the plastic covering.
    2. Go into settings and move the volume software sliders all the way to the RIGHT. These can cap the max volume allowed of various sound outputs. If you've capped the max output, then attempt to turn your earpiece up...it won't be too loud.
    3. AFTER you have done step 2 above, use the rocker switch on the left side of the phone and push the upper side of switch. (this is ringer volume)
    4. DURING A CALL, use the rocker switch on the left side of the phone and push the upper side of switch. (this is earpiece volume)
    Note that the behavior in #3 and 4 is standard to how many cell phones operate.
    IF after doing all 4 above and your earpiece or speaker is still low or muffled you probably have a defective device.

    WZZZ answered about where to get iStat. And do check the SMART status. If it is an overheating problem due to a fan or logic board problem, your hard drive is possibly cooking itself to death. If so it isn't a faulty hard drive even though the hard drive might fail. So assuming it's a temperature problem, even if you are able to repair things on the disk with software, that is working on symptoms, not causes. I could be wrong however.
    RE: AppleCare: Your iMac came with one year of AppleCare (Apple's warranty program), but within the first year you can buy 2 more years. You have to extend by the one year anniversary of purchase of the computer. Your 10,1 is too old to still be in the first year, and since you asked what it was, I'm sure you don't have it. Bottom line meaning is that whatever this problem turns out to be, you'll have to pay for it. Unless there is something like this. It is for 2011 iMacs with certain Seagate drives. You can put in your serial number for fun, but it looks like yours is too old. Lastly, some people have had Apple help them anyway if it is just out of warranty, but many have not. Your machine is one of these. Type in 10,1 in the search box. Is there an Apple Store near you? Just b/c it's out of warranty doesn't mean you shouldn't have it looked at by Apple. But no one here can say at all what Apple will or will not do.
    Hope you get it taken care of!
