Mouse is not working properly on a one month old HP Pavillion 15-NO28US

I'm sure it's already been talked about on here, but I haven't found a successful fix or the same exact problem as I'm having. I went thru the latest Windows 8.1 update recently (at least I think it was the update) and when I restarted my computer yesterday the mouse was not working properly. Like a lot of other people who are complaining about it, the two-finger scrolling and other similar features are not working, but what really bothers me is the the mouse is almost acting like it was changed to a left handed mouse. I've checked the settings and it is still set on right-handed, but when I click the left mouse button the small window opens up next to where I clicked, which has the copy, delete and paste options (and other regular options) in it. When I click the right mouse button, nothing happens. Double tapping on the touchpad doesn't do anything either. I downloaded and install the latest synaptic drivers and nothing happened. I even performed a system recovery last night to reset all setting and it's still not working. This really sucks because I've only had this computer for about a month and I've already lost everything I've put on it...most importantly all of my school work and music apps. Is there anything to fix this or can anyone tell me what's going on with this stuff, before I have to call into HP and have a melt down?

Hi Kevin3047,
Thank you for your query, I will do my best to assist you!!
I understand that after updating from Windows 8 to 8.1 your mouse is not performing correctly. You have tried the built in troubleshooter but to no avail.
You checked the settings and they appear ok, but when you click the left mouse button the small window opens up next to where you clicked, which has the copy, delete and paste options (and other regular options) in it. When you click the right mouse button, nothing happens. Double tapping on the touchpad doesn't do anything either. I grasp that you did a recovery but it did not help. You also stated you lost your data once, and that in itself is extremely aggravating, I agree.
Here is a step that may help.
Go to the Command Prompt and right click on it to run as Administrator
type sfc /scannow and press enter. This will scan for corrupted files and try to repair them.
Here are links to two documents that may aid with this process.
Troubleshooting Mouse Problems (Windows 8)
Using and Troubleshooting the TouchPad or ClickPad (Windows 8)
Would you also please try a clean boot to see if it persists. Here is a Windows document to assist you.
How to perform a clean boot in Windows
If none of this has alleviated the issue, I suggest you do a Refresh Your PC to Resolve Problems (Windows 8).
If the issue still pesists, I would do a recovery again. You will be prompted during the recovery to backup your personal files to prevent data loss. I would suggest you choose yes, to prevent data loss.
Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8)
Restoring Files that were Backed Up Using HP Recovery Manager (Windows 8)
This will take it back to factory. Here is a document on Updating Windows 8 to 8.1 to assist you with doing the update again.
If you are still experiencing the issue, as @visruth stated I would contact HP support for assistance. They are able to remotely log onto your system to help with this difficulty.
Please call HP technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region HP Technical Support Sitemap.

Mouse/Bluetooth not working properly

I've recently started to have problems with my mouse, which is a wireless bluetooth. I switched to a new bluetooth mouse and still had the same problems. Unfortunately, I don't have a wired mouse on hand. Occasionally, the mouse will not double click or allow me to pull down a menu or select text. There are numerous other problems, like text typed in the Safari search bar will disappear as I type and every few minutes the computer starts firing off the alert sound in rapid succession until I hit a key on my keyboard. Also -- coincidentally or not -- I am not able to zap my PRAM. Keyboard shortcuts all seem to work, though. I have Time Machine and was considering a system restore, but thought I'd try this first.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If your bluetooth is out of whack, the PRAM reset via a bluetooth keyboard isn't likely to work. Try it with a USB keyboard, if you aren't using one already (preferably Apple brand, and preferably plugged directly into the Mac.)
A G4 is a pretty old model, so anothe possibility is that the onboard PRAM battery is dead or dying. You could try replacing it.
Finally, I had a glitchy wireless mouse, and tracked the problem to a flaky Bluetooth circuit or board in my Mini. The solution for me was a Bluetooth USB dongle.

Mouse pad not working properly having downloaded Windows 8

Hi, having downloaded Windows 8 to my laptop (HP Spectre xt 13-2000ea) the mouse pad has stopped working properly. The "two finger" page down/up and left/right has stopped working.
I have looked at the mouse settings and it currenlty states the synaptics hardware is installed and working correctly.
Have even gone onto the Synaptics website but have been unable to download something that can correct it. The HP hardware updates page on their support website does not appear to have anything that deals with Windows 8 problems.
Any help much appreciated. Thanks

Had exactly the same issue with my HP laptop. The Windows 8 driver installed with the OS works OK but the Synaptics driver in the latest Windows Update will not scroll. I had to uninstall the existing (newest) driver and install the HP Windows 7 driver from this site (an older version) then in Windows Update you have to wait for the Synaptics driver update to be offered (obviously you have to do a manual update and not allow it to install automatically) and then right click on it and select hide update.

Mouse click not working properly

I just bought a macbook pro last week. Since using lion, I have noticed a problem clicking. Such as opening folders, minimizing windows, clicking the back space button etc. I click on a few folders and they open, and then I try to click on another one and it refuses to open no matter how many times I click on it unless I unselect it and try again. It is not consistent to specific folders/icons, it just happens at random. It is as if the OS is not registering clicks consistently, like it were a hardware problem. Also my right click malfunctions at times and will either not work or will behave like it is the left click and vice versa and takes awhile to regulate itself.
Keep in mind I use both a wireless usb mouse and my trackpad and this is a problem I experience with both of them. I am using the latest version (10.7.3)

Trackpad do not work properly after migration data from old imac to new macbook pro

After migration all my Data from my old imac to my new macbook pro (both running on OS Maverick) with migration assistant, the trackpad of the new macbook pro doesn´t work properly any more.
But the trackpad had worked properly before the data migration!
But now the trackpad feature of scrolling up and down with two fingers doesn´t work. (Other features are ok.)
I have tried to change the trackpad settings, but still doesn´t work.
Can anyone help me???

My ideapad S400 touchscreen/ mouse is not working properly

Hi, I brought this laptop in the September and it had been working fine until the last week, my laptop touch screen keep moving my mouse to the left hand corner without anyone touching it, it just constantly moving my mouse back to that top left corner spot even when I am controlling the mouse. I don't know what to do apart from reset starting it which doesn't make any difference :/ can someone please help, thanks

Funny thing... My laptop is suffering from the same condition. There is no fix for it that I can do here at home or in the store I purchased it from.
With the mouse curser stuck in the upper left corner, activating and using any program became impossible. A Lenovo agent tried his best to control it remotely to reinstall the mouse program and could not do anything more than fight to move the curser. After a wasted hour, it was determined I should send it in to be looked at with no guarantee that it's covered under warranty.
On one hand; I’m relieved to see that the same thing is happening to someone else, showing the consistency with the defect. But on the other hand; this inconvenience should not be happening to anyone and I shouldn’t have to pay shipping and suffer the loss of use. I had to buy another laptop because of my needs, as I wait for this one to be repaired.
I would not recommend this model to anyone who doesn’t want to take a gamble on this happening to them. But if you are into the game of chance; it’s a nice and light laptop.
Maybe Lenovo should consider a recall on this model.

Mouse not working properly

mouse is not working properly. everything was fine in the store but as soon as i got home the mouse was not working

Great work, thanks for the report!
Uhhh, what's a bamboo???

Since installing Lion, I have not been able to utilize Time Machine (does not recognize the back-up drive); my wireless mouse does not function properly; I have experienced unreasonable delays in the system. Is there a fix or upgrade coming?

Is there a fix or upgrade to deal with the many problems I am experiencing since I installed Lion? I can no longer utilize Time Machine (Does not see the back-up drive); my wireless mouse does not work properly; my iMac has slowed down considerably. I am reminded of having a PC machine again. Bummer!

Either downgrade to Snow Leopard or try reinstalling Lion.
Reinstalling Lion Without the Installer
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alterhatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.
Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

Help! My Mouse pad is not working properly. The arrow cannot be controlled, it just keeps jumping all over the page. How can I stop this?

There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not apply in your case.
1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
2. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and in that case the unit must be serviced or replaced.
3. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
4. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
5. Reset the System Management Controller.
6. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
7. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

My wireless keyboard and mouse do not work on my All-In-One computer?

Q.: My wireless keyboard and mouse do not work on my All-In-One computer?
A.: If your wireless keyboard and mouse do not work even after changing the batteries, please try re-syncing them by following these steps.
1. Make sure the computer is on, plug in the USB receiver. Push the button on the USB receiver until it flashes blue.
2. While the receiver is still flashing, press the red connect button on the keyboard (Make sure the batteries are installed). The USB receiver should stop flashing after pressing the button on the keyboard. It may take up to 8 seconds to sync.
3. Repeat the same process for the mouse. Push the button on the USB receiver, then press the connect button on the mouse (Make sure the mouse is on).
Note: This applies to all MSI All-In-One computers that include the ES500W wireless keyboard and SW130 mouse.

"This machine has an added 4 USB ports, could this be causing a problem?
It definitely could be the source of the problem. Perhaps the PCI card was bumped loose during shipping?
Have you tried removing the card? That's where I would start.
Keep us posted.

Clip inspector in imovie not working properly - when I select a picture - and select clip adjustment it tells me that I need to select one or more clips to view Inspector tools and in a clip the audio adjustment only shows a speaker? help

Clip inspector in imovie not working properly - when I select a picture (in project library) - and select clip adjustment it tells me that I need to select one or more clips to view Inspector tools and when I select a movie clip and then click on audio adjustments the audio adjustment appears as a speaker icon and I don't know how to get to the various audio options? It was working fine one minute and then I seemed to lose the functionality. Also editing a photo in a photo or getting rid of ken burns effect etc does not seem to work. help

Can anyone shed any light on this as I am having the same problem? One minute it works fine, the next you get the error message above.
Many thanks.
