My mouse pointer disappears when at rest--only in firefox. (Logitech M305)

Only since upgrading to 3.6.15, the pointer disappears at rest. When I move the mouse, it reappears, with a one-second delay, so that I am only sure where the pointer is when I am moving it! I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium

Hi Jon,
I'm looking into this issue but it will take me some time to provide a reply.
In the meantime I noticed that you have 3 monitors with 1x 55' and 2x27' - please have a try to only connect 1x27' monitor and see if issue persists.
Also please try to change the screen resolution to a lower size and see if issue persists.
Both suggestions are not solution, I just would like to know if it is related to multiple monitor or screen resolution.
If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]

Mouse pointer disappearing when recording audio?

I'm having trouble recording audio in presenter -- when I get started recording, after the first slide the mouse pointer seems to disappear onscreen. I can't do anything except clicking escape which brings up the save window and I can use my keyboard to navigate and click save. Then the mouse reappears.
Has this happened to anyone else? Any solutions?

Yes. This has happened to me, consistently. I am using Windows 8.1, Office 2013 (64-bit).
I have Adobe Presenter 7 and 8. I purchased 10 (as an upgrade), but it wouldn't install because the "upgrade" is ONLY available if you're upgrading from Presenter version 9 (something they don't tell you before you buy). This is a separate issue--I've asked for a refund and in the meantime, I'm using the trial version of 10.
As I record, I notice the arrow from the mouse-pointer disappears and will not re-appear. I must hit "escape" and save the work that way. I have tried re-booting, and disabling add-ins. Nothing seems to work.
I'm afraid we have another "glitch" in an Adobe Product. What else is new?

The latest flash plugin 10.3.181.34 makes my mouse pointer disappear when pointer not moving (Windows Vista) - any thoughts?

When I start firefox 6.0 beta, the mouse pointer disappears once firefox has initialized itself. If I move the mouse pointer, it reappears, then disappears again when it is at rest.
If I disable the flash plugin, the mouse pointer behaves normally, i.e. it is always visible.

Firefox 5.0 does the same thing as stated above.

Why does my mouse pointer disappears when hovering over Firefox?

When I'm over the Firefox window, my mouse pointer disappears, unless I'm typing or actively using my mouse.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== This morning after updating to the latest version, but before I had restarted Firefox to fully install the new version.

it seems that flash player is causing this problem because when i disable it, everything is fine. i even tried to install older versions of flash player (9.+) but pointer still starts to disappear. i'm using Windows XP. it happens on the both of my computers and it started at the same time (during the last week) i don't know what to do next..
thank you in advance

Mouse pointer disappears when screen sharing

When I use Back To My Mac from work to screen share my home Mac the pointer disappears. When I first connect and put the screen sharing window into full screen mode (into a separate space) everything is fine. I can then switch back to my current Macs screen and the mouse pointer is still working. But when I switch back to the screen sharing space the pointer is gone.

yes! i have this problem.
the difference is that it only happens when I'm using my thunderbolt display.
i have an mb air and a mbp retina. there is no issue until i'm connected to it - then i get this freeze issue during screen share and my hidden dock won't appear.
i've had 2 calls with applecare to date. will update you after my next call
have you had any luck?

Mouse pointer disappears.

Hi,
Mostly on PHP driven pages my mouse pointer disappears.
As soon as i mouse away from the page to the address bar or any other part of my screen the pointer is visible again. Tried this in Firefox too, there the pointer is only visible when it's moved.
Any thoughts ?
Jay
Edit:
One of the sites this happens at is: http://liquidfrog.bestdirectbuy.com/

Cauld,
Thanks! So far the Ctrl-Alt-Del then Escape brings back my mouse pointer.
Obviously, I'm not going to mark this as a solution but at least you've saved me from having to reboot frequently. I appreciate your participation.
Steven,
This error is unrelated to the physical mouse being plugged in. It happens in tablet and laptop mode, I've tried to follow my actions to determine when it disappears but as far as I can tell it's random. Suddenly I'll go to do something and I no longer have a arrow on my screen. If I move my finger around the touch pad I can tell it's still calculating where the mouse pointer is located but there's no image to confirm the location.
I have experienced freezing but only when I try to close an application in full screen mode using the system menu icon on the top left. It usually will trigger some form of the left swipe for active programs. Instead of the normal program images I get a small square in the top left and it freezes for about a minute. I'm trying to relearn my habit of exiting a program by using the top right title bar icon.
So, Lenovo support, please keep open the disappearing mouse pointer report. I'm willing to accept the possibility it is a software app conflict and will let you know if I can track down the cause.
Thanks,
Bill
Thanks Bill,
I will keep an eye open should I experience the same kind of issue, so far I have not.

The mouse pointer disappears

Occasionally the mouse pointer disappears, most frequently when I use Safari. I only use the mouse pad on my Macbook Air. Has anyone encountered this problem?
Thank you in advance,

Ugh -- updated a computer at work to Firefox 4, now THAT computer is doing it, never having done it before.
It looks like this problem only happens with Windows 7.

Undo bug, mouse pointer disappears?

Is just me or everyone has that annoying "undo" bug?
That's what happens: when I press UNDO speedgrade starts to behave strangely.
- If I press undo after clicking right mouse button (and I'm moving a color wheel with mouse) comes out a message "optimizing timeline" and timeline thumbnails are shown under the timeline. Sometimes there is a worst scenario: mouse pointer disappears and I have to quit SG and reopen to get my pointer back.
- Pressing ctrl-z without right mouse button clicked (outside wheel edit mode, or whatever it is called..) sometimes works, sometimes appears the annoying progress bar "optimizing timeline" and several steps of undo are taken, even if I pressed cmd+z just one time.
I use undo A LOT, and now I'm not confident using it because of this strange behavior (I'm on osx).
Are you experiencing the same problems?

You won't believe this but just cleaning a mouse can improve performance... read the following:
How to Clean a Mechanical Mouse
This article explains when and how you should clean a mechanical mouse. It does not apply to the the Apple Pro Mouse.
You should clean a mouse if it is does not track smoothly, or if it jumps or skips. A mouse contains a small ball that must roll smoothly for the mouse to work properly. You should keep this ball free of dirt and oil by using the mouse on a clean, lint-free surface, and cleaning it occasionally.
Use the following procedure to clean a mouse:
1. Turn off your computer.
2. Turn the mouse upside down and rotate the plastic ring on the bottom counterclockwise to release it.
3. Turn the mouse right side up with one hand and catch the ring and ball with your other hand.
4. Clean the three small rollers inside the mouse with a cotton swab moistened with water. Rotate the rollers to clean all around them. If there is a build-up of material on the rollers that the cotton swab does not remove, you can use your fingernail to gently remove the material.
5. Wash the mouse ball in soapy, warm water with a mild soap such as a dishwashing liquid if oil from your hands has collected on it. Be sure to dry the mouse ball thoroughly.
6. Gently blow into the mouse case to remove any accumulated dust.
7. Put the mouse ball back in the mouse case and replace the retaining ring.
If cleaning the mouse as described does not correct your issue, the mouse may need to be replaced. Have an Apple Authorized Service Provider check it for excessive wear or other failure.
If that doesn't do the trick, if this is a mouse that required 3rd party drivers, you might try reinstalling the drivers. Also, try going back to default Mouse preferences on all Users, see if makes a difference.

Mouse pointer disappears and makes strange movements

First: I'm afraid my English is not good enough (I speak Spanish).
So,
Sometimes the mouse pointer disappears but it's still able to click. It reappears when I do right click. Also, sometimes the pointer have a strange behavior, like crazy movements very fast. I just wait 10 second and it work fine again. I don't know if anyone here have this problems too.

I would suggest a new feature:The possibilty to change the mouse pointer icon when you hover on an active link by any other one icon I select.

Current Firefox versions have a feature called tear-off tabs.<br />
You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window.<br />
You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.

Question why has my balance on my itune account have totally disappeared when I have only been using it for less than a year? had still fair bit of money in it too. around $60

Question why has my balance on my itune account have totally disappeared when I have only been using it for less than a year? had still fair bit of money in it too. around $60

First, make sure you're logged into the iTunes Store using the account ID and password you set up, or used, when you redeemed your card/gift. If you are, try signing out of the account and back in.
If you're sure you are using the correct account and that you're signing in to the iTunes Store, and signing out and back in doesn't help, go to the Purchase History and review your purchases to make sure that you should indeed have a balance left. iTunes doesn't always refresh the balance it shows, so it's possible you spent the money and it just wasn't being reflected in the display. This display error can usually be corrected by logging out of the iTunes Store and then back in.
If you confirm that you should have balance left but the iTunes Store isn't showing it correctly, send a message to the iTunes Store customer service department through the contact form you'll find by selecting the most applicable section of their Support page (select the Contact Support link and follow the instructions) and explain the problem to them.
Good luck.

Mouse pointer disappears after using the magnifying glass in the color picker

Hello,
I've a problem (one more) with Lion on a Mac mini 2010. Every time I select a color from the screen using the magnifying glass in the color picker, the mouse pointer disappears. I've to move the mouse to the top of the screen and try to click the bar menu. If I succeed, I get the pointer back.
Someone with the same problem?
Thanks for reading

I've found a partial solution: The probem doesn't affect to a new fresh user, so you can backup your data, create a new temporary (admin) user, delete the original account and create it again with the same name (to avoid file permission troubles). Remember to backup your data or it will be lost.

Mouse Pointer Disappearing and reappearing

For the past few days my Mouse Pointer will randomly disappear for unspecified lengths and then reappear. I am using the new Blue Tooth Magic Mouse. It also happens with a wired mouse. I have searched high and low for an answer. I however fall to anyone in this group that would know the answer. Thanks.

I'm having the same problem, it just started this morning when i did system updates "Security Update 2010-003", "iTunes v. 9.1.1", "Safari 4.0.5", "AirPort Base Station 5.5.1", "Xcode 3.2.2".
I am using a Mac Pro with a Microsoft mouse, so it has nothing to do with the magic mouse. It's really annoying and making it hard to work! It affects many apps as far as I can tell.

Mouse Pointer resizes when applying pointer style to all

When Captivate records my SW demo, it uses up to three different mouse pointer styles at different times (Haven't quite figured out what the protocol is). I really don't like this and would like only one style used (the hand). So when I right click on the hand pointer on a slide, and choose "Use the current mouse pointer for all slides," any pointer that was automatically changed to the hand pointer is much smaller (shrinked by 50%) and I still have to end up manually selecting the hand pointer for each one.
Does anyone know why this is happening?
Is there a way to select a default or standard pointer to be used at all times?
TIA,
Vicky

Here's the shortest code with the problem I could come up with.... You can run it if you create two different default paragraph styles: 'Product - Description' and 'Product - Title No Indent';
The problem is that the first line should have 'Product - Description' style, but it instead it gets 'Product - Title No Indent'.
If I comment out one of the paragraphs, everything works fine. What's wrong?
var doc = app.documents.add(),
    product, text_frame, i, l;
product = {
    'text': [
            'style': 'Product - Description',
            'text': 'Designed for monitoring sterilization processes.'
            'style': 'Product - Title No Indent',
            'text': 'Designed for monitoring sterilization processes.'
            'style': 'Product - Description',
            'text': 'Designed for monitoring sterilization processes.'
text_frame = doc.pages[0].textFrames.add();
text_frame.geometricBounds = [ '0pt', '0pt', '240pt', '300pt'];
for ( i = 0, l = product.text.length; i < l; i++ ) {
    text_frame.contents += "\r" + product.text[i].text;
    text_frame.parentStory.paragraphs[-1].appliedCharacterStyle = doc.characterStyles[0];
    text_frame.parentStory.paragraphs[-1].applyParagraphStyle(
        doc.paragraphStyles.item( product.text[i].style )
