Cursor disappears on macbook pro windows 8.1

I have a MacBook Pro running Windows 8.1. Over the past few weeks, while doing work (email, Word, Powerpoint - basic office work), the cursor would disappear. I would need to restart the computer for the cursor to reappear. Today, the cursor has disappeared and I can't get it back with a restart. I have read many posts on disappearing cursors but none seem to fix my problem. All other functions (as far as I can tell) are functioning. I am using the trackpad. All features work except for the ability to see the cursor. I have tried the following:
1. Restart
2. Power off / on
3. Looking for additional microsoft updates and updating.
4. Removing updates that have installed in the past 5 days
5. Removing update KB2919355 (It wouldn't let me so it reinstalled it)
6. Mouse settings - I tried changing scheme, size etc - no change. I was able to select within Mouse Properties - Press CNTRL to see Mouse - this works. When I press the control button - it shows me a target of where the cursor is but it doesn't show the cursor - WORKAROUND.
7. Added a mouse - it connected, made a sound as it connected but same situation as cursor - functional but can't see the cursor
8. Went to MSconfig and tried booting in Diagnostic set up - CURSOR REAPPEARED - but no idea which app is causing the problem.
9. I went back to MS Config and did normal mode - cursor disappeared at restart and disabled all the start up apps and restarted - still no cursor.
10. I pressed all the FN+F1, f2,f3 etc. - no change
11. I checked to make sure I was only using 1 screen (and not extending my screen).
I have an appointment at the Genius bar on Monday but there has to be an easy fix to this. Any ideas?

Additional Info - after working on this problem for 4 hours, I shut my laptop in frustration and took a break. 1 hour later I opened my mac and the cursor had magically returned. No restart, no power on/off - nothing. Frustration. If anyone else has had this happen and has actually fixed the problem let me know. I'm sure it will reoccur.

Can I transfer my email in outlook on my macbook pro (windows for mac) onto my ipad mini?Help!?

can I transfer my email in outlook on my macbook pro (windows for mac) onto my ipad mini?Help!?

Outlook is an email client and that does not indicate if your email is POP or IMAP. If you have an IMAP email account, all of your emails actions will automatically sync across your devices. If you have POP, it does not work that way.
If you are asking if you can transfer the current emails on the Mac onto the iPad, no you cannot, unless the email is an IMAP account and they can download onto the iPad again from the server.

I can't completely control my cursor on my macbook pro, and it keeps jumping to the right of the screen and switching my screen to the dashboard or utilities. Any ideas on what might be causing this, and what I can do about it?

If you have another pointing device installed, remember that the Mac uses "all sources live". You can literally use two or more mice or two or more keyboards at once.
Your trackpad, if that is what you are using, must be very clean. Any debris may be seen as another "finger".

Cursor freeze on Macbook Pro

Hi,
I have a 2009 Macbook Pro, 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3.
I am experiencing a recurring problem with the cursor freezing and/or completely disappearing. This happens in virtually any program (i.e. it's not just in Safari or related to flash as far as I can tell). Nothing fixes this problem. Force Quit has no effect. The only thing I can do is push the power button until the Macbook shuts off and restart it. This is becoming more and more frequent and is really frustrating me.
I've searched discussions and googled the problem but I've yet to find a solution.

I too have a 2008 MBP. I have never had a problem with it until these past few months. It finally froze up and the screen went black and could not get it to come back. Took it to the Apple Store who sent it out for repairs. Came back with a new logic board and a couple other things I do not remember. Now the computere freezes a couple of times a day and needs a hard reboot. The fan runs loud and fast before it shuts down. Sometimes on the reboot the screen looks like it has flood lights shining from the floor of a stage on stage curtains. Makes it very difficult to use this way. Took it back to the store and they could not get it to duplicate the problem. Told me to take pictures if it happens again. Took pictures this time and the time where the log-in screen is no more than a shadow behind the the black veil. I did not have this problem prior to the repair. While they got it running, I spend several times a day rebooting and rebooting, and rebooting. Very difficult to work this way. I too want to know why this seems to be a major issue with 2008, 2010 and 2011 MBP and there is no response from Apple. I guess we are on the way back to the store-- a 2 hour drive each way. Will let you know if they find anything.

I am about to buy a 13" MacBook Pro with 256 GB SSD drive. I want a i am about to buy a MacBook Pro Windows partition set up. How large should it be, and can I use XP Pro or does it need to be Win 7 or 8?

I am about to buy a 13" MacBook Pro with 256 GB SSD. I want a Windows partition set up. What size should it be, and can I load Win XP Pro or does it need to be Win 7 or 8?

You can use XP but it has to be in a Virtual Machine and OS X as the host instead of as a dual boot system with XP in its own partition. That is how I run Windows on my Mac, in a Virtual Machine.
Take a look at VritualBox from Oracle. It's free and works very well.

My cursor on my MacBook Pro has been freezing up in a weird way, usually when connected to the Thunderbolt display: the cursor can still move around, but I can't click on anything and have to reboot

I ran EntreCheck in case this is helpful in diagnosing the problem:

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

How to get A2DP on Macbook Pro (Windows 7 X64)

I have been fighting like crazy to figure out a way to get A2DP working on my Windows 7 x64 bootcamp partition, any time I pair a stero headset (tried Dynex and Rocketfish) it detects the device but then says there are no compatible drivers for it, provides a link to Broadcomm to download current drivers, and then the installer sits there saying it can't detect any bluetooth adapters. This seems to be a common theme from searching the web as Microsoft doesn't appear to include A2DP support native in Windows 7 and requires the bluetooth manufacturer to provide this support.
Does anyone know how to get A2DP working under Windows 7 X64 on a macbook pro?

I was researching this issue today as well, and so far the best I have found is:

I haven't had a chance to try it yet (I'm at work), but I will over the weekend.

Early 2011 macbook pro, windows 8.1 bootcamp crashes

Hi,
I have some problems with running windows 8.1 on my macbook. I have managed to manipulate Bootcamp so I can create a bootable USB, the installation went fine and windows is booting correctly. The problem I have is with the installation of the bootcamp drivers. During the installation of the intel Video drivers I get a BSOD and shows me the following SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED(igdkmd64.sys). I already troubleshooted the problem and now the problem is wih the intel hd graphics 3000 drivers. and tried the following to fix the problem.
-     Follow the normal apple bootcamp installation.
-     Try the installation of the newest intel drivers.
-     Use windows update to search for drivers
-     Tried multiple installation and windows 8.1 copies.
this all ended in the same result during the installation, a crash with the same error. This crash also happens when I am not trying to install anything.
Here is some more information about my setup.
-      macbook pro 15 inch early 2011
-      2 hard drives 1 ssd for my windows installation and the other for OS X Yosemite
-     Windows 8.1 enterprise ISO
-     Newest bootcamp Drivers
I am stuck here and can find nothing that works, I have now tried the installation about 20 times but every time the same thing. I know this configuration works becuase I had it before.
Thanks in advance!

I tried this solutions but not resulted:
1 - MacBook Pro audio sound fix

2- Cirrus Logic CS4206A (AB 11)

3- Have already the latest Bootcamp drivers http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1720?viewlocale=pt_PT Boot Camp 5.1.5621
Any idea how to get the sound drivers up ?
Thanks

On a MacBook Pro - windows on external drive?

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to Macs. Looking to buy a MacBook Pro 17 inch, and I am wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to load windows on an extermal disk, firewire 800 or E-sata off an express 34 card?
If this isn't possible, can OS X be loaded on external drives?
I'd rather load windows on external drive than OS X.
Thanks,
Chris

You'll need to repair or replace your SuperDrive as that is the only way Windows can be installed (downloading is what you do with files on the Internet). And it must be the built-in SuperDrive. The external one Apple sells for the MacBook Air and 2012 iMac will not work.

Sound problem on Macbook Pro (Windows 7)

I have installed windows7 on late 2011 macbook pro but sound not working.
I have used bootcamp for installation.
Also the audio jack emitting red light.
Please help

Assuming you are running Lion or Mountain Lion, did you download the Windows Support software when you ran Bootcamp Assistant? Did you save the Windows Support software per the instructions you printed from within Bootcamp Assistant? Did you install the Windows Support Software from within Windows per the instructions in Bootcamp Assistant?
If you are running Snow Leopard the Windows Support Software is not downloaed it is on your Snow Leopard install disk.

Menu bar disappearing on MacBook Pro 13" w/ Retina.

Just bought a new MacBook Pro w/ Retina and the menu bar keeps randomly disappearing. How do I make this stop? It comes back as soon as I click where it should be. I notice it happens particularly when opening Google Chrome, but that's also one of the few apps I have been using since purchasing it a few days ago. Been a Mac user for years and have never seen this happen but it's starting to get frustrating.

Having the same issue. Macbook Pro 2011, latest Mavericks update ....
Apple menu disappears and reappears when Google Chrome is open/closed. Behaving the same with random programs. Do you have any ideas?? Software is up to date, THANKS!!!
