Display moves constantly unless cursor is on right hand side

I have a MacBook that I purchased in July 2007. I haven't seen this issue posted anywhere else and I'm trying to determine what has caused it.
The display shifts constantly and rapidly unless my cursor is on the right third of the screen. The shift is horizontal only.
It happens as soon as it is finished booting. This has caused the machine to be essentially unusable.
Any help would be appreciated.

Stefan,
Thanks for the answer. It didn't completely fix the problem but led me in the right direction. I did some more investigation on universal access and zoom. When I turned the zoom off, the problem still existed. I turned zoom on and zoomed in a little and the screen stopped shaking. The display is now larger than the actual screen dimension which is a bit of a pain but at least it's usable now.

    can i move the trash bin from the right hand side to the left

    Sorry, but I never use full screen for anything except an occasional web video. These are my Dock settings and the 66 icons on it take up little real estate.
    This is what mine looks like, SL version.

  • TS3274 Email display problem: My email only display the list of emails and a preview (first two lines of the body of the mail). If one click on the message it only shows the heading on the right hand side of the screen, but not the content.

    My email only display the list of mails in my in box with a preview of the first two lines of the body of the message. When one clicks on the message to open it, only the header is displayed in the right hand side of the screen - the actual message is missing. This happens on older mail previously downloaded that use to work properly as well. Any idea how to fix this?

    Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Downloaded newest iTunes,now can't see cheap movies in the right hand side topics; where did it go - how do I get to them?

    Downloaded the newest itunes, now I can no longer see the "cheap" movies listed on the links to the right hand side.  Where did they go, and how do I now get to them?  I tried search and that didn't work.

    Are they gone completely from the computer, or just no longer in the library? Check your movie media folder.
    If your'e in the USA you can download some movies a second time, but not all (studio dependent).  You should always back up all media.

    There is no bar or arrows on the right-hand side, so I am unable to move the page down

    that would probably be caused by a Theme, and Extension, or a Style, you can check that ouit quickly by testing in safe mode (one time restart of firefox)

  • Black or multi-colored strip an right hand side of copies

    My C7280 was not used for two weeks.  When I returned home, the printer prints a black or multi-colored line about 1/2 inch wide down the right hand side of the copy.  I ran the print dead cleaners three times.  Any ideas what is wrokng? 

    Hi peggymay.
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    Sorry to hear that you are having issues with black lines on your scans or copies.  I have had this issue myself on my very own 8600 and I was able to get it resolved. The issue actually stemmed from two locations and with any luck we can get this issue resolved for you. First thing to look at is under the scanner lid. Lift the scanner lid and to the left of the large scanner glass, you will see a small strip of glass. Please take a light glass cleaner and a lint free cloth and clean the small glass area as well as the big glass . On the under side of the lid, you will see a white plastic strip. Please clean this as well. IF you have already done these steps then please move on to the next step.
    The printer power cable needs to be connected to a wall outlet and NOT a power Bar/Strip. HP printers already have a built in surge protector and if you have it plugged into a Bar/Strip, the printer will NOT get all the power needed to function properly and it will cause issues with scans or copies and it could even generate false error messages on the printer display screen. 
    Please try these steps and if they work, Fantastic. But if they don't, please feel free to write me back.
    Thank you so much for your time.  Always happy to help.

  • I cannot save PDF files that has a lock on the right hand side of the tab in safari iOS 5 from my iPad. Please help to find a solution.

    Can someone help find a fix of how to save PDF files from safari in iOS 5.0.1? The PDF files show a lock on the right hand side of tab. Only these lock PDF cannot be save. Any help will be highly appreciated.

    I assume that you have iBooks or GoodReader or Adobe Reader - some app that will open PDF files so my suggestion would be to start with the basic things, restart your iPad, reset it or quit Safari and restart.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    In order to close/quit apps - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off.
    To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    The lock to the right side of the tab indicates that the website is secure - or at least that is what it looks like in Safai on my iPad. Sites with the https in the address have the lock icon in the tab, non secure sites - web pages without the https - do not have the lock icon. I'm not sure if that has any bearing on it - none of the PDF files that I have opened in Safari have the lock icon.
    But if you can open the file - it doesn't make sense that it would be locked??? Try the basic suff and see if any of that helps.

  • My screen has a blank section on the right hand side of the screen

    since installing updates my screen has a blank section on the right hand side which remains on start up and operation

    Hi @Graham1957 
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that the display has a blank area on the right side, after some updates were performed. I am happy to help with this.
    The quickest thing to try would be a system restore.  Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8)
    Choose a restore point from before the problem started, and let me know if this makes any difference. If not, then please post the full product number and verify the operating system in use on your notebook. See the following documents if you need help in finding those.

  • How do I force all Tabs to the right hand side, leaving space on the left?

    It feels more intuitive to have the first tab against the right hand side and it's easier to find because it always remains in the same position when, eg, closing other tabs. I use TabMixPlus, but can't find the required option. Many thanks.

    You can check out code in the userChrome.css file to see that it doesn't really work well (tabs move around when you hover or click).
    Add code to the <b>userChrome.css</b> file below the default @namespace line.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/userChrome.css
    <pre><nowiki>@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
    #tabbrowser-tabs tab:first-child {-moz-box-ordinal-group:2}
    </nowiki></pre>
    The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the <b>chrome</b> folder in the Firefox profile folder.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration
    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    * Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
    * Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in this folder (the names are case sensitive)
    * Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
    * Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css.<br>Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file

  • Place my contacts list back to the right hand side of my e mail page

    My contacts list in my e mail ,are no longer on the right hand side and visual when reading my mail. How can I put them back to the old system? PV3-571G OS system Windows 7 home Premium 64 bit.

    Hi,
    Firefox and other browsers only temporarily displays the contents. The actual content, settings etc. are stored at the email site. So you may have to change the email settings to display the contacts list on the left. The email support/forum would be helpful. On the other hand, if there is a display problem/error, you can reset Firefox and start afresh.
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    If you would like to take a listing of the add-ons, changed preferences/settings etc. to quickly replicate the previous profile, please '''Copy all to clipboard''' (on the left of the reset button), and paste it into MS Office Excel, or OpenOffice/LibreOffice Calc, or notepad. However, it would be a good idea to check for the existence of the issue immediately after the reset.

  • Icons that appear on the right hand side of my desktop wallpaper

    So, if I take a screenshot of something, or if I download something, it will appear as an icon up the right hand side of my wallpaper. What does this mean? I just downloaded 'OS X 10.9.2 Update Combo' and then it appeared as an icon to the right of my homepage. Does this mean it has downloaded? I have just been moving things from there into my trash bin but to get rid of them. But I don't want to end up deleting important things purely because I don't want them appearing on the right hand side of my wallpaper.

    Those represent the screenshots you've taken as well as the mounted dmg files. Once you've installed the software, you can remove the mounted images; files on the desktop can be dragged to other locations.
    Nothing important to Mac OS X's operation will end up on the desktop unless manually put there.

  • Shifting the Company Logo to the right hand side?

    Hi Guys,
    There is a requirement to put the Logo of the Company in the header on the Right Hand Side of the Self Service Page. The customer has already modified all the buttons.links etc.The last requirement was to shift the Company Logo to the right hand side.
    Also there is a requirement to put the company on the Login Page.
    Please suggest a suitable way to achieve this.
    thanks a lot in advance.
    regards,
    Hem

    Hi Hem,
    There is no standard functionality to move the company logo to right hand side.
    But you can do a workaround,
    Take a backup of your $COMMON_TOP/html/OA.jsp
    add the following code
    <img src="YourCompanyLogo.bmp" width="100%" height="100">
    Under
    <%@ page
    language = "java"
    contentType = "text/html"
    errorPage = "OAErrorPage.jsp"
    import = "oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.OAJSPHelper"
    import = "oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.OAPageBean"
    import = "oracle.apps.fnd.framework.webui.OAGenericDispatcher"
    import = "oracle.cabo.ui.jsps.GenericEntry"
    %>
    YourCompanyLogo.bmp, should be in $COMMON_TOP/html,
    But you can keep in $OA_MEDIA also, but you give the corresponding path.
    goto your $COMMON_TOP/_pages/_oa__html/
    remove the cache for OA.jsp, using
    rm OA.
    YourCompanyLogo.bmp should be an image which will have your company log in the right hand side.
    And you can place a empty image for the standard image.
    For changing the standard image, check this URL..
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/blaf/specs/branding.html
    If you face any issues to do this please let me know.
    Then bounce the apache.
    Then check.
    Thanks.
