Cursor Problem - Cursor is not where it should be when used

Hello,
IO hope someone here has had the same problem and knows why it is occuring.
this keeps happening to me on both my laptop and desktop, when I open Photoshop CS4 everything is fine with the cursor, meaning where ever I place the crosshairs of the cursor is where the marque/brush/line/pen will draw from. Then after an hour or so of working when I place the cursor the actual selection place will be below the crosshairs of the cursor, about 10-20 pixels below. This is making it very hard to be accurate. It happens both with tablet and with mouse. Is there a keyboard shortcut I am accidentally hitting? any help is appreciated, this is driving me nuts.
aloha,
e~

This has come up repeatedly in this forum:

etc.
Please consider doing a forum-search before posting.
Rotating through the screen-modes (hitting the key F three times) should correct the problem.

  • Cursor Working About 4mm Below Where it Should?

    Hi there.
    Pretty simple issue, though infuriating nonetheless - no matter what tool i use, or how zoomed in i am, the cursor clicks approximately 4mm below where it should - very annoying for intricate work.
    Anyone know how to solve this, it's Photoshop CS4 on a Mac and it's only recently started to do it.

    Cheers, i did read that but it sorts it only only momentarily. It just returns to doing it pretty much immediately after.
    Additionally, when i select areas of an image, say with the lasso tool, randomly selected square areas appear which i then have to deselect.
    ...what on earth is going on with my Photoshop i do not know

  • 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.

  • Drop down menus on iPad, the first selection in the drop down will not load as a selection when using safari, what can I do?

    Drop down menus on iPad, the first selection in the drop down will not load as a selection when using safari, what can I do?  I use this for my mobile, on-site auto repair business and not being able to call up repair and diagnostic info and reference for some cars is troublesome for sure. It works fine on the computer and I have installed a remote desktop app as a workaround but it is unreliable because the desktop is not business dedicated and may be off or in use at the time. So is there a known fix for this?
    Let me paint a more descriptive picture, visualize 4 drop down selection menus, first one is for year, next one is for make, 3rd one is model and the last one is for engine size/type. If I wanted to choose a 2012 vehicle it wont work because it is the top selection on the list. This can be forced by selecting any other year and then coming back to 2012. Ok fine, but then let's say I wanted to choose Acura as the make, well it won't take it because again it's the top selection. Again you work around it be selecting any other make and coming back to Acura. Ok now select the model, same trend follows. But now since most Acura vehicles come with dedicated engines and no optional engines I have only 1 selection in that final drop down menu and it will not take my selection and therefore never let me proceed to the info I need.
    This is also true when ordering parts from my wholesaler's website, they use drop downs and I can only get to that last drop down and then I'm stuck. This is blindingly frustrating, what options do I have. I'm not opposed to any avenue at this point.

    Did you ever figure this out? I bought my iPad last week to use in my business as well. I assume you are trying to use alldata? That is where I noticed this same issue. I had problems with identifix working with safari but downloaded a different browser and that works fine. Alldata does not work with either browser. The main difference is that on identifix if there is only one engine selection, it automatically selects the only option and continues to the home page. With alldata you have to make the selection manually even if there is only one option. Honestly if I can't get this to work I am going to return the iPad as it looses a significant amount of usefulness to men

  • Where is my Outbox when using Outlook

    Where is my Outbox when using Outlook?

    If you see the email message and the message is going to the recipient, my assumption is that the photos are not being attached properly for some reason. You will not see the photos only in the outbox, the entire unsent email would be in there, so that's why I'm asking if the emails do go through.
    IN any event, the outbox will be in the same window of your email account where you see your inbox, sent folder, trash folder, drafts folder, etc. It should be readily visible, so if you have to ask, most likely you've never seen it because it isn't there. In some email accounts, it only appears if you have unsent emails so, if you don't see it, then you don't have any unsent emails.

  • USB mouse will not initialise on boot-up when used via Dynadock on Satellite Pro U200

    The USB mouse will not initialize on boot-up when used via Dynadock on Satellite Pro U200. If the mouse is reseated on the Dynadock it works fine. I am using a Kensington Valuoptical USB mouse. I have tried alternative kensington mouse and had the same problem. Can anyone advise how to resolve this issue?

    Hi Jeremy
    Unfortunately I have no solution for your issue but it can also be some technical limitation. I am also interesting to buy such docking station and I would like to know if there is the same problem with external HDD or USB memory sticks.

  • ISE Not Identifying AD Group Attributes when using Multiple ISE Servers

    So we have multiple ISE Servers with differing personas. I was having an issue with our new ISE setup not identifying AD Group Attributes when using them in Authorization rules.
    We have 2- 3395 appliances running Admin and Monitoring/Troubleshooting Personas and 2- 3395 appliances running as Policy server personas. We are running  v1.1.1.268 with the latest two patches.
    I was unable to pull Active Directory Group Attributes in any of my Authorization rules. After Resyncing all the boxes with the Primary Administration box I was able to do this. There is no bug listings for this occurance nor do we have Smartnet to call support for other reasons. I thought this might be useful to someone who is having the same issue and is unable to figure it out with TAC
    -CC

    Absolutely. All units said in-sync after setting their personas.
    Here is our layout:
    ISE-ADM-01  Admin-Primary, Monitoring-Secondary
    ISE-ADM-02  Admin-Secondary, Monitoring-Primary
    ISE-PDP-01  Policy Only
    ISE-PDP-02  Policy Only
    I synced one at a time starting with ADM-02. After completing the other two boxes. Active Directory Attribs were pulled down when using them in the Ext Group within my Authz rules.

  • Scratch Disk not where it should be

    Hi all,
    I can't get my Scratch Disk to appear in the place I've selected in System Settings (i.e to my second internal hard drive called Video). Here's what I've done - can someone tell me where I've gone wrong?
    1. Chosen the new hard drive using the Set button in System Settings > Scratch Disk for Video Capture, Video Render and Audio Render
    2. Chosen the same hard drive using the Set button for Waveform Cache, Thumbnail Cache and Autosave Vault
    In the Video hard drive, I now see folders for Autosave Vault, Thumbnail Cache Files and Waveforem Cache Files, but not the others. There is no folder called Final Cut Express Documents.
    Thanks heaps,
    Andrew

    That's how mine is as mentioned. The system drive has the Final Cut Express Documants folder whereas the external does not. It should have one called capture scratch and that's where audio and video render files go as well. Everything else I keep on the system drive.

  • 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.)
