Clicking sound every time using extermal mouse or touchpad

SatelliteP770-PSBY3U-03L01Q As mentioned above, there is a loud(depending on speaker vol) clicking sound whenever the mouse or touchpad button is pushed that causes the computer to perform an operation. This is very annoying as it does it all the time, if the sound is on. Makes listening to music, playing games, and just working with the computer a pain in the ----. The noise sounds like relays opening/closing!!
ANY IDEAS other than not using the sound??
Solved!

One of my favorites. I have it set to qclick.wav.
Open Sound in Control Panel. In the Program Events box on the Sounds tab, locate the Start Navigation event, which is under Windows Explorer. Set the sound to (None) as shown.

hi there smallworld100,
could you provide the community with a little more info to help narrow troubleshooting? Mainly your printer model but things like your operating system as well will help out a lot.

When creating a new window in safari, using command T, the marker have not activated the search field. It means you have to click there every time. Changed after upgrading to Mavericks. Anyone knows how to change this?

Yes, you can do something like that. What you would do is create a button for each image and then hide them. When I do this type of thing I place all of the buttons on a template page and then hide the template.
You can then use JavaScript to copy the icon from any of the hidden buttons to the main button that you've set up to display the image. For example, suppose you set up 10 buttons named b1, b2, b3, ...b10. The code to copy the icon from one of them to the button used to display the image (b0) would be something like this:
// Get the icon from the b3 button
var oIcon = getField("b3").buttonGetIcon();
// Get reference to the b0 button
var f = getField("b0");
// Set the icon of the b0 button to the icon retrieved from the hidden button
f.buttonSetIcon(oIcon);
// Show the b0 button
f.display = display.visible;
This code would go in the Mouse Up event of the smaller button.

I have been using Lightroom 4.4 successfully for over 2 years. Just tried to import some new photos after a vacation and the application crashes when I click "import" every time. Tried restarting computer. Version says it is up to date.

How do I get formal support for this from Adobe?

Thanks for the response. The application was crashing. A Windows message was displayed showing "Lightroom.exe has stopped working", "Windows can check online for a solution the problem.". Etc.
I just launched Lightroom to check the exact message for this reply - and the Import worked. It had failed dozens of times before.

Once you purchase or download an app it will always be associated with the Apple ID used to download it. When that app requires and update you must use the Apple ID and password used to download it in the first place. The only way around this is to delete the apps the require the old Apple ID and download or purchase them again with the new Apple ID.

My MBA w/SSD makes click-click sounds every 6 secs ?

I've read the post that describes ticking sounds that people are reporting on presumably MBAs w/HDD. That post seems to imply the ticking sounds come from the HDD. After reading that post and prior to receiving my MBA w/SSD today I thought I would not be plagued by the ticking sounds.
However, I find that my MBA w/SSD is now making click-click sounds every 6 secs with about 1 sec between the click-click all the time.
Do others w/SSD hear these click-click sounds every 6 secs or so ?
I've disconnected the Mag Safe and it makes no difference. I've disconnected my USB-Ethernet adapter ad it makes no difference.
The MBA is not hot either.
I will say though that I don't recall hearing these sounds when I first booted my MBA today. It seems to have started some 6 hours after having used the MBA for the first time.
I'm starting to find these click-click sounds annoying as apart from them the MBA is completely quiet and it's now become like hearing the tic-tok sound of a clock when trying to get to sleep.

Brian:
I'm in agreement with you on this. I downloaded smcFanControl App and it shows fan rpm at "000".
Using TermperatureMonitor I find the Cores 1 & 2 are running at around 200ºF with RPM is 000.
Not looking good at all. Time to Call AppleCare for sure.
It does seem like my MBA w/SSD has a faulty fan.
If MBA were to overheat is it designed to shutdown to protect itself ?
Well I think I've got an answer to that question as CPU 2 has been disabled per Activity Monitor. It's just plain shutdown and only one processor is running now. Core 1 temp has dropped to 141ºF now.
Stopped the two CPU burner Apps and now see that CPU 2 has come back online. At least the MBA is designed to protect itself from a meltdown even with the fan not running. Good design IMO.
The baby is going back to the shop for sure. Bummer.
I guess the click-click sound every 6 secs should serve as a warning to others.
Thanks.

New Windows 8.1 PC. Forced to click ALLOW every time i want to redirect. Where's "Always Allow"?

New Windows 8.1 PC.
Firefox 36.0.1
In gmail, when i click on an outside link, the new page is blocked and I have to click "Allow" every time. Where's the "Always Allow" drop down?

The setting in "Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

Making weird sound every time I switch songs. Really annoying..

Ok, so my iPod Touch makes a weird sound every time I switch songs. It is the exact same sound the iPod makes when connecting the USB cable to my macbook. I tried turning off all sound effects, didn't help.
Any idea? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Strange. Which phone model? What file format is used for the songs? How did you transfer them to your phone? Where on the phone do you put them?

'Sounds' every time I click on something...!

Hi - The kids have been 'playing' on our mac & seem to have clicked on something that means its making a different noise every time u click certain things or complete an 'action'- It's driving me mad - any idea how to tuen it off - have looked in System Prefs & turned off 'play user interface sound effects' but that's not sorting it! - HELP!!Thanks

In System Preferences, check the Universal Access pane; something there may be turned on.

Cursor moves to lower right corner every time I move mouse.

Macro, running 10.6.8. I came back from vacation after not using computer for a week and now this happens. Every time I move the mouse, less than a second later, it moves to lower right corner. Managed to repair permissions, but no good. Restarted with OS disk, repaired disk and permissions. Each time it repairs permissions, there is a long list of items, which seems odd.
Also zapped pram. And unplugged computer for a while.
Figured I try to install 10.7 Lion, which was tricky with limited mouse movement. It installed and worked fine for about a few minutes, but same problem occurred.
Thoughts anyone?

It sounds like your display is zoomed. Open System Preferences, Universal Access window. You will probable see that "Zoom" is set to "On". You can either turn it off there, or use the hotkey combination cmd-option-8 to toggle Zooming. See there is also a hotkey for zooming in and out. You must have hit the "zoom in" hotkey inadvertently.
If you click the "Options" button, you see the settings that are causing the window to relocate. At the bottom, you probably have "Continuously with pointer" selected.
I should mention that 10.4.9 has two odd glitches that cause the display to shift around, these are probably soon-to-be-implemented features in 10.5.

Weird clicking sound every few seconds.

When i open the powerbook from being asleep, it starts up and everything is fine... every few seconds i hear a weird click sound, i'm guessing its the HD, and somthing is wrong with the moving parts. I have not dropped or damaged the powerbook in anyway. I first heard the noise when opening the top after being away few for an hour.
Has anyone else had a problem like this?

With hard drives it's not a matter of if it will fail, it's when. Since they are made of moving parts generally when you begin to hear clicking noises, it's a sign to backup your stuff and then worry about running some diagnostics. If you have applecare you should run techtool and it should tell you with a small margin or error if it's good. Now just because it says that the drive is still good can also not mean that it isn't in the process of going bad. So, keep a good backup of all your stuff on an external drive. I use superduper to do a full backup of my system once a week on a external firewire drive that's bootable if i need it. It will do a "smart update" of your data when you backup after the first time saving you a lot of time.
If you don't have applecare, try and find a friend that does or take your computer to your local apple authorized service center. They will have access to the gsx (global service exchange) website which has specific diagnostic bootable cd's for each model of computer. They should be able to tell you if it's bad or not. If you find a friend that has applecare, just use his techtool cd. Just Boot from the cd and run the diagnostics, don't install the app on your mac as that would be illegal.
Hope this helps

Diable "open dialog box" on right mouse click so I can use l mouse to advance to next slide and r mouse click to "go back." How in PP 2010 for mac????

I do presentations in PP10. I am new to macair, and used to Windows. HOW DO I DISABLE THE "OPEN DIALOG BOX ON RIGHT CLICK"? I would like to use L mouse to advance slide, and R mouse to go back. The default is to use R mouse to open dialog box. I can disable this by unchecking the box in "advanced" on the PC. How do I do it with the Mac????
Thanks

Hi Rod,
As originally stated in my opening post, the SWF is to be inserted into an Articulate '13 slide (what I called an aggregator originally - I tried not to bring them up since I don't want the chatter about "There's your problem - using Articulate"! ).
Recall that posting this published file to our LMS did not allow right-mouse click functionality as the flash player menu just gets in the way.
If I insert the captivate 6 files into Articulate as a Web Object (referencing the entire folder with html, htm and assets, and then posted to our LMS, and it DOES allow RM click operations in both IE and FF (although no sound on the Captivate slide in FF). But this is not what we want to do as this introduces 2 navigation controls (the Captivate one and the Articulate Player).
Why must anything be posted to a web server for this functionality to work?
I am able to go into the Captivate 6's published folder, and launch the Captivate demonstration by simply double clicking on the index.html file and this works great in both FF and IE after changing the security settings for flash.
Again - I can not believe I am the only one out there trying to use the right-mouse click feature to do a software simulation by embedding the Captivate SWF into an Articulate '13 project.

My new 8600 Premium e printer jams every time using eprint

My new printer (8600 Premium e) jams every time. I have to pull the duplex unit to clear it. There's paper behind the duplex unit every time. I have to quit using eprint for this reason. I've read the other messages about this but nothing has worked so for.
Different files, same results.
Thanks for any help rendered.

Hello Phantom101st,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that your Officejet 8600 Premium printer jams when you send ePrint jobs to the printer.
I have included the A 'Paper Jam' Message Displays on the Printer troubleshooting document. Please follow all the instructions in “Step two: Clear any jammed paper from the rear of the printer”. I’m asking you to do this as it has some additional steps to check things in and around the duplexer.
If that doesn’t resolve the issue, please let me know. In addition please include the following information:
How is the printer connected (USB cable, ethernet, or wireless)?
How are you sending the ePrint jobs to the printer (via the ePrint desktop software, sending an email to the printer’s ePrint email, via the HP ePrint mobile app, or the HP AiO mobile app)?
Are you able to print from your computer without the printer jamming?
Are you getting an error message? If yes, what does the message say and where is it displayed (computer or printer)?
Thank you.
Regards,
Happytohelp01

Faint clicking sound every six seconds

I've just noticed that my MacBook Pro emits a faint clicking sound approximately every six seconds. It's a double click, and it sounds like a fairly low freq. It is very regular. I have no idea how long it's been going on, since I live in NYC and am constantly surrounded by loads of ambient noise. I just noticed it while staying with a friend who lives in a quiet neighborhood. (This is how faint the sound is.)
Details on my system: MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2011). I upgraded my hard drive from the factory installed one to a Crucial SSD about 10 months ago. At the same time, I upgraded to 16GB of aftermarket RAM, too. Two *GB, 1333 MHz, DDR3 chips. I can't remember the brand, but I bought them from Crucial, too.)
Does anyone know if I should even be concerned?
Thanks.

>, nothing to be too worried about in the short term, right?<
Right!
>I don't need to start taking backups<
Making backups is always a great idea. You never know when your computer will go down.
Thanks for the check mark.
