Cursor does not change to a circle when using eraser

Cursor does not change to a circle when using the eraser.
I'm sure it must be a tick box somewhere.
Its always been ok previously.

I had this same problem and was searching for answers. I also prefer using a circle instead of crosshairs. I hope you've figured it out by now, but, if you haven't, here is the answer (I am using Elements 9, but, it should work for other versions I think):
1. Open up Elements Editor, Click on Edit, Click on Preferences, Click on Display & Cursors.
2. Under Painting Cursors, select Full Size Brush Tip
3. (optional) - if you want crosshairs within your circle, then also select Show Crosshair in Brush Tip.
4. Click ok.
Now use the brush, and it should have a circle to use.
P.S. Sometimes if you have your Caps Lock key on, that removes the circle as well.

Cursor does not change when hovering over pop-up window link

I created a text link for a pop-up window. The link does work, but the cursor does not change to a pointy finger, the standard link icon.
I don't know a lot of javascript, but can figure it out if it's just adding some code.This was done in CS3. Any help would be appreciated! Here's the code:
function MM_openBrWindow(theURL,winName,features) { //v2.0
window.open(theURL,winName,features);
Thanks in advance.
Todd

A link would be nice but I suspect that you are not gettign the finger (you knwo what I mean) when you roll over the link because your href is not set to anything.
<a href="" onclick=MM_openBrWindow('images/image.jpg','largeDisplay','scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=100,height=120')
Set your href to "#" or "javascript:;" - the latter is preferred.

Cursor does not change during the editing of clips

Hi. I am new to iMovie and am looking for some help. I have imported my clips, put them in my timeline and I want to shorten the clips. According to the movie that is on the Apple web site, when moving my cursor over the line separating my clips, my cursor is to 'change' allowing me to shorten the clip. Well, my cursor does not change. Is there a setting that needs to be corrected. Thanks for any help that can be offered.

Hi konrad - the View Menu DOES have a 'Show Clip Volume Levels" IF you are using iMovie HD!
But according to your Profile you have iMovie 4. Volume control in that version is at the bottom beneath the Timeline Audio tracks.
Hope this helps clear up your confusion.
Better to use the iMovie 4 forum in your case!:-)

Tool cursor does not change or does not show up

If you change tools in Photoshop but the cursor does not change (or disappears entirely), this indicates a bug in your video card driver. To fix it, you need to update your video card driver.
Sometimes you can fix it temporarily by turning down the hardware or driver acceleration in the properties panel for the video card.

Hi Todd,
i got the same problem.(cursor not change for pop-up windows) and because i m not an expert in internal html code i did try several solutions to fix it.
The easiest (but also even longer if u need to do severals) is to create a button (withs 2 overflight changing pics) with "inserer", "image survolée"
the "image survolée" can be linked to a pop-up window with the correct effect. To do so highlight the "expected new link to" and on right side task bar ad a "comportement" named "ouvrir la fenetre du navigateur" and optionally choose the size and windows available function of the pop-up. It works even if u need to proceed first with an overflight changing button.
The result is longer to obtain and not absolutely perfect. So I guess it s only an help solution for a single mateer. i would be glad to get another solution with a text link rather than using the overflight button system. Technically it should be better, more efficient and faster to proceed with applying an html code that really makes the text appearing as a classic link to a new windows whatever pop up or full size window. Please let me know if u get further answer to fix this problem.
Many thx and excuse my technical english translation about DreamCs4

Cursor does not change and dock is not responding

mac mini mid 2011, 10.9.5 logitech wireless keyboard and mouse (wave). Dell 20 something inch monitor with lighting to mini display to hdmi.
My cursor will get stuck on the arrow and not change on text input fields or the index finger to select links. If it does change at some random point, it will stay to whatever it changes, until it decides to change again. This will change every 10 to 15 minutes depending on how heavy I'm using it. The dock is also not responsive. If it is hidden, it will not pop up, if it is up on magnify, it will not magnify. Once in a great while it will magnify, but only to one spot and will not change.
In addition, when I hover the mouse, things will not appear or recognize the mouse, like a print or zoom on the bottom of a pdf, or even a field on some web pages. It will not allow me to select some fields. www.jobs.ca.gov is the best example, I can not type a search or select a position. One time I even had the system settings icon stuck to my mouse and could not put it back on the dock. It followed the mouse, when I would single click, it would stay where it was, unless it was at the dock. If I double clicked it would open.
I've only had this mini for about 4 months, this problem has only been going on for the past couple weeks. There have not been any changes in those past few weeks that I'm aware of. I did upgrade to 2 4gb ram 6 weeks ago and did a software update to 10.9.5 about 2 weeks ago, but I was hoping that would fix this problem. It did not.
I was also having tons of problems with safari about a week ago, but a reboot into a certain mode, then back to normal reboot solved that.
Thanks everyone in advance for you time and help.

Cursor does not change with tool selection

Has anybody experienced this? My cursor suddenly does not change with the selection of tools when working on photos. Once I roll over the picture the arrow is lost and becomes a strange 3 small things, so can't do any work accurately. Still using PS 7 in Win 7. This was not a problem previously. Already uninstalled and reinstalled and problem is still there. I have searched for where this can be fixed. So far no luck. Any suggestions?

First answer, PS 7, not Elements. Second answer, BIG THANKS, the dpi change corrected the problem.
It was an odd issue as PS was working fine for years and then suddenly the problem occured, even though I had not changed the dpi recently.
A true glitch. Thanks again for the fix. Working fine again.

Cursor does not blink in searcg box when Firefox first loads

The cursor in both Internet Explorer & Google Chrome blinks when the programs are first loaded. This does not happen in Firefox v8 is this correct?

If I'm not logged on then the cursor is in the login form at the top.<br />
Once logged in the main body has focus and not a specific element, so you have to click in an input filed to set focus to it.
If it worked before then they have changed the code of that page recently and it is just a coincidence that it happened around the time that Firefox updated.

Batch change does not change meta data name when exporting or copy

I use batch change to change the name of an event when photos from more than one source (camera) are imported. When I copy or export the photos the name reverts to the original meta data file. I do this to override duplicate names. For instance photos from two cameras taking pictures of the same event can have identical names such as IMG_0100. Iphoto does not show all the metadata on info but does show the change in the name when viewing info in iphoto.
Is there some way to permanently change the name on photos using a group or batch method?

No you're not changing any filenames at all.
There is no way to change a filename in iPhoto at all. What you with Batch Change is add a Title to the photo. A Title is an entry in the metadata.
You can set the name of an exported file to be the same as the title, when you export... if you choose that option.

Computer does not put itself to sleep when used in lid-closed mode

Hi. I'm having a small problem when using my macbook pro with the LED display, lid closed and with external keyboard and mouse. If I leave the computer unattended, the display goes to sleep at the time specified in system settings under energy saver. The computer, however, does not go to sleep - the white power indicator remains solid and noises for new email etc can still be heard.
I should probably just try to remember to put it to sleep manually but I keep forgetting. Does anybody know what settings I need to adjust?

I tried cycling the old battery many times, and the computer would still shut down unexpectedly instead of going to sleep when it ran out of power. I got a free replacement from the supplier [http://myworld.ebay.com/cbkusaelectronics>, but I have cycled this new battery twice now, and it still does not go to sleep when it runs out of power. The capacity of the battery is fine (4.9 Ah), and the timing calibration seems fine as well. I have two older batteries from NewerTech and they allow sleep every time, so I think my computer is fine. Can anyone enlighten me about the cause of this problem? Does my battery lack some 'sleep battery' cell in it for use after the other 4 cells discharge? Or does my battery lack a chip that communicates with the computer? Is there any hope of getting this battery to support sleep when discharged?
Has anyone else seen this problem consistently in a brand of battery? Does anyone have a recommendation for a cheaper battery that does not exhibit this problem? I have been happy with NewerTech, but they cost over $130.
(I only paid $44 plus $10 shipping, so I probably got what I paid for. It is maybe still worth it to have a high capacity battery for such a low cost, but I can't rely upon it in those last few minutes or I may lose work.)

Trackpad does not respond after a second when using Keyboard

This problem is still persistent even after setting the SmartSense sliders to "off" and the Option in Mouse and Touchpad Settings to "No Delay". After researching online, some users in other blogs recommended changing the values in the registry, specifically the string called "PalmKms" to 0 value. Is this recommended, or is there another solution? I would rather not change values in my registry, as I do not know how it will affect my computer.

Thank you for the suggestions.
I checked the WIndows log files. It reported the following error:

When i edit an image in aperature it does not change in idvd like it used to?

i made several DVDs with iDVD its a great program. Always using aperature for my pictures and videos. When i edited a picture in some way like "crop" in aperature it used to change automatically in iDVD. It no longer does and all images are the "master" versions in the iDVD projects unless i manually change them. Why is this? Thank you

It is possible that Aperture is saving the edits in its database and there's no hard copy of the photo available for iDVD to refresh to? Just ran a test with a photo on the Desktop that I added to iDVD. After editing it with PS and saving to replace the original on the Desktop iDVD reflected the change.
I then repeated the same test but on a photo in iPhoto and it's edited version would not refresh in iDVD. I had to go back to the Media Brower to get the edited version and use it. It would not refresh automaticallly if edited in iPhoto. Aperture and iPHoto share the same library so I imaging it's the same with Aperture.

Cursor does not change on disabled controls

How can I set another cursor on disabled nodes?
My use case:
I want to disable a node, while a Task is running and simultaneously change the cursor to the wait cursor.
But it has no effect, if the node is disabled.
Any solutions?
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Cursor;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.VBox;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class TestApp3 extends Application {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        launch();
    public void start(final Stage stage) throws Exception {
        VBox root = new VBox();
        Button button = new Button("Test Button");
        root.getChildren().add(button);
        root.setDisable(true);
        root.setCursor(Cursor.WAIT);
        Scene scene = new Scene(root);
        stage.setScene(scene);
        stage.show();
}

can I set another cursor on disabled nodes?apparently not - log a jira with your test case.
Any solutions?A couple of workarounds.
Set the cursor on the parent of the disabled region (wrapping the disabled region in a pane for this specific purposes if needed).
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Cursor;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.*;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class DisabledControlCursor extends Application {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { launch(args); }
@Override public void start(final Stage stage) throws Exception {
    VBox root = new VBox();
    root.getChildren().add(new Button("Test Button"));
    Pane wrapper = new Pane();
    wrapper.getChildren().add(root);
    root.setDisable(true);
    wrapper.setCursor(Cursor.WAIT);
    Scene scene = new Scene(wrapper);
    stage.setScene(scene);
    stage.show();
}Set the cursor on the entire scene containing the disabled region.
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Cursor;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.*;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class DisabledControlCursor extends Application {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { launch(args); }
@Override public void start(final Stage stage) throws Exception {
    VBox root = new VBox();
    root.getChildren().add(new Button("Test Button"));
    Scene scene = new Scene(root);
    root.setDisable(true);
    scene.setCursor(Cursor.WAIT);
    stage.setScene(scene);
    stage.show();
}
