Cursor control problem
I have a problem controlling my cursor. I've noticed it while in Yahoo email, but it may occur at other times also. It seems to occur when my fingers are on or near the mouse pad. What happens is that, for no apparent reason, the cursor image changes from a perpendicular line to a little rectangle. When this happens, I lose control of the cursor, and it takes off down the page. I can get back control by taking my hands away from the keyboard for a few seconds, but then when I try to do something, it may happen again and again. It is not a huge problem but is very annoying. Any suggestions? Is there some kind of sensitivity adjustment I need to make with the mouse pad? Hey! It just happened while I was typing this post.
Try disabling tapping.

I purchased Mountain Lion from 10.7.5 on my Imac to correct the gray cursor square problem, now Mountain Lion will not fully download. Any recommendations?
Upgrading to a newer OS X does not often correct pre existing problems. MIght be a disk space issue, or the startup disk needs repairing.
Make sure there's enough free space on the startup disk.
Control click the MacintoshHD icon on your Desktop then click Get Info.
In the Get Info pane you will see: Capacity & Available
Make sure there's at least 15% available disk space.
For the gray cursor issuee, startup your Mac in Safe Mode
A Safe Mode boot takes longer then a normal boot so be patient. Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from the Apple menu.
If that didn't help the cursor issue, launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utilities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk
If Disk Utility reports errors, since v10.7 Lion is the currently installed OS, restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys so you can access OS X: About OS X Recovery.
From there you can access the built in utilities to repair the startup disk.

User Account Control Problems with Premier Elements 7 32 bit in 64 Bit Windows 7
I found User Account Control Problems in other forums but didn't see much in Premiere Elements, so I hope this helps others who may be having problems with 32 bit programs in a 64 bit computor. When I first got my 64 bit I didn't have problems.
Back in February I bought a Quad Core Desktop with Windows 7 64 bit. Haven't been on the forum for 7 months since I wrote in regarding importing video with the Pyro AV Link (Premiere Elements Tips and Tricks). I was having problems importing video which started after March 28 sometime, as that was the last time I didn't have a problem importing VHS. Took me a few months off and on to find out what worked.
I started uninstalling Windows updates and any programs I had installed back to that point in time. Checked after uninstalling each item. The capture screen would come up on a delayed basis but clicking on capture did nothing. Although no driver is required for IE1394 (so they say) I read where some people using the Legacy driver had fixed some problems, so I switched to the Legacy. Seemed to work great (for a few minutes).
I had even uninstalled and reinstalled PE7 but no difference. Finally I noticed a shield in the PE7 Desktop icon. Thats weird. Never had that before. Just decided to show up after I had done all of the stuff I mentioned. Turns out at some point in time since I've had the computor Windows 7 decided to flag my 32 bit program as misusing the 64 bit system. User Account Control. I never bothered too much with UAC and just clicked on the yes box wen it popped up asking if I wanted this or that to take control of my computor. I tried using the minimum setting for safety reasons, and then finally turned User Account Control off. Bingo! PE7 capture works again and still working.
While I am not recommending that people arbitrarily turn UAC off, this appeared to be my problem. I would recommed that they try turning it off before uninstallin a bunch of stuff. Having a restore point may or may not have been a fix for me. I think one of the Windows Updates caused the problem but I am not going to uninstall any more stuff at this point, I have not been back on the internet or installed any more updates in my desktop. I am going to use my laptop for internet and used the desktop for video.
I am guessing this could be a problem for any 64 bit systems trying to use 32 bit programs. IE: XP,Vista,Windows 7 64 bit. In Vista there is also Data Execution Prevention (DEP) which you can turn on or off, supposedly to prevent misuse of memory (as I understand it), but Win7 either doesn't have it or I haven't found where it's located.
Maybe this has been covered in the forum somewhere and I missed reading it. Hope I am not too confusing. Anyway, whatever feedback you guys have would be great.John,
Thanks for your answer, and I did check out the link you suggested. However, I have Windows 7 Home Premium as most people have I think, and the XP program was not available. I started with Vista and now have Win 7. I never could navigate around in XP anyway so am content to just leave User Account Control off.
Interesting side note to turning UAC off is that my desktop seemed to be using more of the CPUs, where half of them were "Parked" as I wrote in also about 7 months ago when I 1st got my desktop. I am pleased to say that video processing seems to go quicker with UAC off. Have to observe things some more to confirm.
I just thought if others were having problems after installing Windows Updates and leaving UAC off worked then they could possibly pinpoint a problem. -
On the graph cursor control (the 4 sectioned diamond that appears withthe cursor legend) I'm wondering what the top and bottom diamond do if anything. The left and right ones are simple enough (forward or back one sample) but the top and bottom ones don't seem to do anything from what I can tell. Are they just for decoration?
Solved!
Go to Solution.Dan,
I never noticed that before but you're right, in a multi plot graph the up/down diamonds will attach the cursor to a different plot. I never noticed before because I usually change my cursor style so as to not show the horizontal line (just shows the vertical stripe for the cursor). -
I create a swf by Flash locally which point to a flv in a
remote flash media server, FLVplayback component included, it work
fine locally. Uploaded to FMS3, played without the control problem,
such as Play/Pause, seek bar.
Is it something I need to configure in FMS, or in Flash.
Please advice.
Thanks!Between version 1.0 and 2.0 the API in the JBCL controls has
changed. We are actually moving away from JBCL completely (please
do send feedback if you have a comment on that) to a Swing and
Infobus standard based library of visual JavaBeans.
You will still be able to use the JBCL controls in JDeveloper
2.0. The best thing to do is to take your 1.x based application
AND the 1.x based JBCL.ZIP file into your new environment. This
way you will be able to continue to use these apps and
components. Taking the 1.x JBCL.ZIP file will make sure you have
the same version of the JBCL library that you were used to in
version 1.x.
Hope this help,
-Roel.

Getting ORA-01000 : maximum open cursors exceeded problem
I am getting ORA-01000 : maximum open cursors exceeded problem in my piece of java code when the
load is high .Open cursors is set to 1000 still getting the same problem .
Basically i have to select some rows from a table which i am doing in A() function and process it and insert into
another table which i do it in another function B() there is a update statement also in this fun.
There is a particular business logic for which i need to call B() from the A() function
which happens to be in the select result set like below
A()
query ="Select * from temp";
while(rs.next)
B();
All the result sets are properly being closed that too in finally block.
I dont see any other problem with code .Still I am gettin this cursor problem.
Is some thing wrong with the design like calling a
insert from a result set while loop or the update statementThe code below is deleting fine. Check your $id is valid. I wonder if ADOdb has some quirks with binding and variable creation/destruction, similar to #1 in http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/php/htdocs/php_troubleshooting_faq.html#bindvars
<?php
See ADOdb Tutorial for Oracle: http://phplens.com/lens/adodb/docs-oracle.htm
drop table mytab;
create table mytab (city varchar2(20), country_id varchar2(20));
insert into mytab values ('SF', 'US');
insert into mytab values ('Sydney', 'AU');
insert into mytab values ('London', 'UK');
commit;
require_once("/home/cjones/public_html/php/adodb5/adodb.inc.php");
$db = ADONewConnection("oci8");
$db->Connect("//localhost/XE", "hr", "hrpwd");
echo "Before:\n";
$rs = $db->Execute("select city from mytab");
while ($arr = $rs->FetchRow()) {
echo $arr['CITY'] . "\n";
$s = $db->Prepare("delete from mytab where country_id = :ci");
$db->Parameter($s, $ci, 'ci');
foreach (array('US', 'AU') as $ci) {
$db->Execute($s);
echo "After:\n";
$rs = $db->Execute("select city from mytab");
while ($arr = $rs->FetchRow()) {
echo $arr['CITY'] . "\n";
?>There's another sample in the ADOdb OCI8 driver:
Usage:
$stmt = $DB->Prepare("insert into table (col0, col1, col2) values (:0, :1, :2)");
$DB->Bind($stmt, $p1);
$DB->Bind($stmt, $p2);
$DB->Bind($stmt, $p3);
for ($i = 0; $i < $max; $i++) {
$p1 = ?; $p2 = ?; $p3 = ?;
$DB->Execute($stmt);
}For queries I know this works. I haven't seen any examples that prepare once.
$rs = $db->Execute("select city from mytab where country_id = :ci", array('ci' => 'UK'));
while ($arr = $rs->FetchRow()) {
echo $arr['CITY'] . "<br>\n";

MBA 2013 - cursor control lost with Bluetooth speakers and Acrobat Pro
When using Acrobat Prof to fill in form (using Typewriter) and have Bluetooth on playing audio speakers the cursor control in Acrobat goes hayware and cannot control cursor - ok when I close bluetooth and play music via MBA speakers - any fix except to stop using the Bluetooth and external audio speakers?
Using i7 ultimate - 8Gb RAM+512 SSDIt might be an hardware issue of course. But I'd start by completely uninstalling the Symantec software.

MEGA 865 fan control problems after suspend/hibernate.
I'm seeing the CPU fan control problems, and it's REALLY ANNOYING, as it means I have to leave the machine on all the time. Specifically, after suspending or hibernating the machine, on wakeup the CPU fan goes to full speed and STAYS THERE until I reboot.
This is on a CLEAN INSTALL of Windows XP.
Is there going to be a fix for this from MSI soon? Because it's really ruining the experience of using the MEGA.Hi guys,
I have builded a Mega 651 attaching a Celeron 2.4 Ghz.
I installed the cooler but I got really scared when I realised that the fan run for 2 secs and then stopped.
Is this normal?
If yes then i am assuming that the voltage of the fan is controlled by a thermal sensor, meaning that the fan goes on when the temperature reaches a certain limit.
Can the threshold temperature be controlled from bios so I can set it to minimum possible?
thanks in advance -
My I phone 4 have volume control problem did anybody know how to fix
My I phone 4 have volume control problem did anybody know how to fix thankyou
Try force closing the Photos and Maps apps, then resetting your phone: double-tap the home button, locate Photos in the list at the bottom, tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it. Now locate Maps and tap to close it as well, finish by tapping the home button. Now reset your phone: hold the on/off and home buttons until your see the Apple logo (ignoring the off slider that appears first), then release. See if that clears things up.

I do support for a High Powered executive and philanthropist who love the Blackberry Passport but *hates* the cursor control within email.
He wants the trackpad-keyboard feature to behave like the trackpad on his beloved old 9800... is there ANY way we can enhance/emulate this experiance ?
Unfortunately I dont yet have a second one to test with, but I've just ordered one on the grey market (because Australia always Lags behind in this area >.< ).
But Any Suggestion is greatly appreciated...Can you expand on what type of behavior they are looking for specifically?
For example, if they are having difficulty selecting text within a email they reading, have them tap and hold a word within the sentence they'd like to select. After a second or two, the word will be selected and if they continue holding their finger the sentence, followed the paragraph will be selected.
If they are having difficulty moving the cursor around when composing email, or writing a document, encourage them to double tap the BlackBerry Keyboard which will show the cursor. They can then move their finger across the keyboard to move the circle to the desired location. Another handy tip for fine cursor control is you can move the cursor one character at a time by tapping on the left, right, top, or bottom of the cursor.I hope this helps!

Topic : Alesis Master Control Problem (to previous post unanswered fixed)
Topic : Alesis Master Control Problem to the original post user: Garrud
Me:111984cz i have an answer to ur problem.i too had the same problem with cubase 5 ,Nuendo 4 and any of Steinberg softwares with the alesis master-control studio interface. i hope u run into this to learn my fix.
the problem is check ur midi input on your actual track.make sure it says to (master-control midi port) and not (all midi inputs).as for your device manager settings set to (master-control port) don't set your midi to all or master control port as it will interfere .now it will work perfect.this is for all who have the same problem as well.hope this helps many as i spend a lot of hours of trouble shooting.i almost thought there was something wrong with my mixer.have a great day guys!!
Original post:
I've installed the MasterControl driver as instructed and followed the logic set up instructions provided with the MC and all that seems to happen is the Controller acts as a midi keyboard playing different notes rather than the intended function.
e.g if i touch one of the faders it plays a high pitched note and if i move the fader it acts like the note is being pitched, like a pitch bend function on a keyboard.
Very strange...cannot figure out whats going on
PLEASE HELP I'M GOING INSANE
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.6.4)I too had the same problem and resolved it.
However, I have had nothing but issues with the Alesis Mastercontrol since it arrived last week. I purchased mine second-hand as a replacement to a Fire-Wire / Analogue mixer made by Mackie (Onyx 1220). A fantastic amp, but not a control surface.
I decided I wanted an all rounder, plus something I could place in-front of my iMac so I could work on the fly.
So...
1) Alesis Mastercontrol
2) 1 x Rode microphone in Ch1
3) 1 x Rode microphone in Ch2
4) Peavey guitar in Ch3
I use Logic Studio Pro 8.
I finally figured out how to get the Alesis to behave and interact with Logic. So far so good!
I then ran into a series of issues that are frustrating me.
I cannot get the microphones to mute properly (I would also complain about the poorly position gain dials at the back of the unit for the microphones. So poor indeed that I have purchased an Art mic preamp to slap into the back (not arrived yet) and by-pass the rear controls).
I also cannot get my semi-acoustic Peavey to record at all. I can hear it through the control desk, but it is much lower than expected and I am getting nothing when I try to record). In record mode the pair of mics record and I can't get the 3rd channel to operate, although it looks like it's functioning on the screen. I try MUTE / SOLO and selecting the correct channel, but nothing!
All I can do is record myself playing guitar through the mics I cannot switch off.
Strange machine! Almost wishing I'd not sold my Mackie Onyx 1220 so swiftly. -
Another weird Icebook cursor-freeze problem
I recently asked about a full cursor-lockup problem here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=440688
Problems started after updating this machine to OS 10.3.9.
Anyway, I've been able to improve matters to when the cursor freezes, I can
unlock it by unplugging the phone line to the (internal) modem. Only locks up when I'm online (dialup). Weird, huh? And down to nuisance level, though I'd still like to cure it.
Details: 2002 Icebook G3/600 running OS 10.3.9
Ran fsck, repaired permissions, cleaned & reseated RAM (tests
OK with Memtest)
Any other ideas?
TIA & Cheers -- Pete Tillman

Icebook Mac OS X (10.3.9) 384 MB RAMI've had that problem since I purchased my MacBook about 2 years ago. I've even flatten and installed new OSs over this time, no change. The behavior I have is the cursor sticking after just about any input which requires the computer to do some processing (ie: copying and pasting text, performing edits a photo, renaming a folder, etc...). It's very distracting when you're working hard on a document or drawing and constantly waiting for the cursor to unstick. Believe it or not, I've actually gotten used to it. Good news is, I'm buying a MacBook Pro soon, and giving this computer to my wife. I'll freak if the new Pros do it too. No......!

Another volume control problem after installing new software
I'm having a different volume control problem than the previous poster.
When I turn my ipod touch on, the volume control stays on the screen. I can't do anything to get rid of it. When I go into settings/sounds, the control goes away on the screen, but it will not let me turn the volume up. When I try to listen to music through my headphones, I can turn the volume up but then it automatically turns itself down. The same thing happens when I try to turn the volume up from the side control. It worked fine this morning before I installed the new software and now it's acting buggy. Any ideas on how to fix this?Friend should do an update again your team blackberry.

I have an HP Pavilion TouchSmart Sleekbook running Windows 8.
I have had trouble with cursor control since I took the PC out of the box. I called HP support and they had me turn my touchpad off. They also had me reload some drivers. Nothing has worked. However, the cursor continued to jump around the screen as I was typing - sometimes putting me at another position in my document and sometimes just going to the desktop and starting up another program.
It is now much worse. My cursor is going to the top right corner of the screen - it even shows a small rectangle in the corner. It is getting very difficult to control the cursor or click on anything on my desktop or in my mail program (Windows Live Mail).

Simulate signal controlling problem
Hi
I have this signal controlling problem. In 10,20,30,40,50 the sine wave stops. How can i avoid that?
Attachments:

As far as the Simulate Signal, I have no clue. The settings look find as far as I can tell.
