Application screen flying off to the left when the mouse is moved left

Can you help a newby to this world of imac.I don't know if it is some setting that I have upset but if I move my mouse to the left of the screen, whatever application I have showing,shoots off to the left or flies upward off the screen. I bring it back by clicking usually to the left and dragging it back to the centre; very frustrating.Any suggestions would be gratefully accepted.Thank you in advance

Thanks Simon and Terence there was a "desktop'

    Quit and relaunch Safari then go to the Tumblr site.
    See if your post is visible.
    If it didn't get posted, you will have to re type it out.

  • 2007 intel based iMac has the white screen of death with the mouse visible?? WHATSUP

    My 2007 Intel based IMAC has the white screen of death with the mouse cursor as the only visible item.  What is up with this?  Is this the equivalent of the windows blue screen of death?

    I purchased a tv show in itunes.  When I try and play it, the screen stays black but the cursor is moving.  Any thoughts?

    If you are seeing the "Connect to iTunes" logo, then your device is in Recovery Mode, and you will need to restore it:

  • When links are clicked, they do not fully display the NEW page until the mouse is moved.I know it is a current bug, and appears in no other browsers that I know of.

    It was pointed out that my links do not function correctly on Firefox on a Windows platform. When links are clicked, they do not fully display the NEW page until the mouse is moved! I have now observed it for myself on my fathers PC running Windows XP on Firefox.My PC is on Windows7
    It is the 5 version of Firefox, so I know it is a current bug, and appears in no other browsers that I know of.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    In Firefox 4+ you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • Firefox won't load pages or process anything UNLESS the mouse is moving!

    Ever since the latest Firefox upgrade (Firefox 4 I believe), my pages will not load unless the mouse is moving! It's very strange, but the moment I stop the mouse the progress of loading freezes, and the moment I move it again it will resume and continue for as long as the mouse is moving.
    I've never experienced anything like this before. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, and that looked like it solved the problem, but then it came back a few hours later. It makes watching any videos impossible, or sometimes will keep playing the sound but freeze the video image until I move the mouse and the image catches up with where the sound is at. Every page I'm on I have to keep the mouse scrolling around in a freaking circle just to keep it from freezing!
    I'm so disappointed as Firefox used to be perfect to me. Is there any solution to this out there? (or am I better off with Chrome...)

    So after months of this ridiculous problem not improving after endless cache clears, reboots, safe modes, extension deactivations, re-downloads, and anything else I could think of, I lost my patience and switched to Chrome for good. This is the only effective and lasting solution I have personally found.

  • What to do if you drop your Ipod and the top half of the screen is off and the ipod will no longer recognize your figure when you touch the screen

    So I dropped my Ipod on the floor and the top half of the Ipod came off and the screen will not recognize my figure when I try to swipe it to unlock the screen what do I do. But keep in mind that I have no money to fix it so how do I get it to work again?

    Likely because the drop broke something like the digitizer.
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • TS3700 why does my music stop playing when i press the sleep/wake buttom? it says the screen turns off but the music should be playing

    why does my music stop playing when i press the sleep wake button? it says that the screen should turn off bu the music should still keep playing

    This is usually a sign that your headphones are not plugged all the way in.  Make sure the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano and no silver from the plug can still be seen.
    If you are 100% positive that the earbuds are all the way in, double check to make sure the headphone jack is clean and clear of debris and/or damage.

    when I boot my windows there is the startup screen. After this my screen turns off and can't login to windows.

    Where can I get some old drivers for the ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600, which I can install without starting windows?

    > Where can I get some old drivers for the ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600, which I can install without starting windows?
    Please dont understand me wrong but I think you are on the wrong way.
    Device drivers (graphic card, LAN, etc.) have to be installed within running system (i.e: Windows OS, etc)
    Im sure; driver isnt the problem if nothing is visible on the screen.
    First of all I would recommend you to connect the notebook to an external screen/monitor just to check if something would be visible on the 2nd display.
    But just one question: did you try to boot the notebook using a bootable disk (windows installation disk, Toshiba recovery disk or similar???).
    Maybe the Windows system is muddled up and therefore you are not able to boot up the system? In my opinion you should test this option.

  • Hp pavilion 15 screen turn off for few second when i turn on or off charger

    Hello,
    I bought new hp pavilion 15. i notice many time when i turn on or off my charger, screen turn off for few second then after few second screen turn on. please help me out its furstating me . 
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    >> It is customary and in this case Necessary for you to provide the exact model of Notebook you have a problem-with. [ There are MANY variations of HP Pavilion 15-T Models, for example. ]
    >> You should always be sure you have installed/applied ALL updates for all of your Notebook's hardware devices, and ALL Windows Updates labeled "Important" and ALL "Optional"-section Windows Updates for any hardware device in your Notebook which the Windows Updates service detects (and offers an Update for).
    >> For example, this link:  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4158&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=6787... has the latest HP Drivers and Patches for a specific variant of the Pavilion 15-T.
    >> AFTER you are certain you have all the latest drivers and patches in-place, you can try the 'old Trick' as follows: Shutdown Windows; when your Notebook has turned-Off completely (after Shutdown completes), THEN remove the AC Adapter connector and remove the BatteryPack.
    >> Hold DOWN the power-button continuously for a full 62 seconds. Then put your BatteryPack back in your Notebook. Do NOT connect your AC Adapter yet. Power-On the Notebook and Logon into Windows. Check the Control Panel\Power Options settings and find out the Charge Level of your BatteryPack. If it is below 25%, then (and only then) plug in your AC Adapter and connect it to your Notebook... and let the BatteryPack charge up "completely" to 98-100% Level. *Note: if your Adapter has a removable AC cord-connector, be certain that connection is 'tight'. <Do NOT stick your fingers or ANY object into any AC Adapter!> If you even think your AC Adapter is faulty, GET A NEW ONE! Damaging a $400-$800 Notebook PC is NOT worth it, versus the cost of a New Adapter.
    >> Use the built-in Help functions of your Notebook to find out how to DISABLE(!) "Hibernation", and eliminate that TROUBLE-CAUSING 'feature' of Windows PCs. When you have done so, always REStart Windows, to be certain the changes are applied. *Many changes and Updates take place 'Fully' only "during" Shutdown and/or "during" Startup of Windows PCs. [While Windows O.S. is "running", most of it's System Files are LOCKED.]
    >> FYI: always let your BatteryPack run down to it's Lower setting BEFORE you plug-in your AC Adapter/Charger. Charging  any rechargeable BatteryPack at  "mid-charge-levels" causes shorter BatteryPack life...

  • My mouse cursor disappears and does not come back when the mouse is moved.

    Ocassionally my cursor disappears, usually when the display has gone to sleep.  The mouse is still working because I can "mouse over" places on the screen, they are highlighted, and click on items, but there is no cursor.  Fortunately, I can usually find the Apple menu and restart, but having to reboot is annoying. This did not happen before I upgraded to Lion (10.7.1).  I am usually connected to an external display when this happens.

    I found this in the community.  Same problem Mouse pointer disappears on second monitor.
