I have an issue with my mouse and trackpad operating simultaneously

I use a mouse almost exclusively with my macbook pro because I'm editing video (FCP). Recently the trackpad is working at the same time as the mouse so that if I drag my hand or wrist accidentaly across the pad it does something (very disruptive) to my video. I've looked under trackpad and bluetooth preferences and can't find any way to shut the pad off when the mouse is on. I'm not sure how it ever got turned on (the trackpad).

Never mind. I found it under Universal Access. Problem solved.

Does apple have an issue with magic mouse and adobe

does Apple have a problem with magic mouse and Adobe Photoshop/Indesign/Illustrator, scrolling uncontrollable, pages moving of their own accord etc.
If so, whats the cure and why does Apple not admit to it?
Badgolfer4

it's rare that a mouse would perform in a different manner between different applications
I would troubleshoot with other apps to see if it was just adobe apps
and then I would troubleshoot by trying a different mouse
could be the mouse was defect

Strange issue with USB mouse and USB headset.

Good day everyone.
I was experiencing a rather strange issue with my mouse and headset(both USB).
I am using KDE and ALSA, if that matters.
They are working just fine, but sometimes, when I try to lower\raise volume, my mouse derps out. I can move it around, but I can't click on anything(sometimes though, I can click on stuff in window that was active before and sometimes only on KDE panel) until I re-plug my headset. Then, nothing can use my headset until I reboot.
Anybody ever had that problem?

I've had similar problems for some time now. Unfortunately, I don't know what the issue is either, but perhaps we can come up with some setup similarities and narrow it down. I have similar trouble with just alsa or with pulseaudio, so that's not it. It is unrelated to the DE, as it happened for me in both gnome 2 and xfce 4. It is not related to the machine either, as the same quirks occur in other machines with the same headset. I have had inconclusive results with downgrading to kernel26-lts, the ancient kernel. I thought at some point it messed up and I was sure the older kernel didnt help, but after trying recently-ish, I had no trouble for days -- until I found that I didn't have trouble on the main kernel either. ... then a few days later, it showed up again. Very irritating!

Does my old thread sound like your issue somewhat?
Essentially, at times, if the headset (wireless) is changed into a different power state (unplugged/plugged) or the mic state is toggled (mute/unmute), things that could be clicked on normally cant unless theyre in the window already focused -- mostly.
What headset are you using? 32 or 64 bit arch? Have you tried downgrading to kernel26-lts?

Hi, I have an issue with Photoshop CC and Lightroom

Hi, I have an issue with Photoshop CC and Lightroom. I purchased a subscription the other day, they told me to install the CC app to install these. I installed the app, logged on and it still says trial version. How can I solve this? Could I be that the subscription is not activated yet?

I have an issue with the tabs and windows disappearing....?

I have a constant problem with Firefox now. I notice that with Firefox 4 and 5 there has been a reoccurring problem with the tabs and windows closing on their own. If I have more than one window open, one of them will suddenly disappear and I wont see the tab at the bottom anymore until I click out of the one I am currently on. It is very annoying and only when I get out of Firefox completely will it sometimes reappear. Even more frightening is the fact that when I move the mouse downward to the bottom of the page the page shuts out as if I clicked out of it.
I am wondering if this is a security issue meaning some type of malware or virus that is manipulating my browser or is this a common issue that has some unknown cause? I would like to know what the cause is and how it can be fixed because it annoys me all the time. Please help!!

No Issue with the voltage in general. iPad is being charged via USB.
1. If you connect it directly to the computer - no problem.
2. If you want to charge it directly from the power socket you will need this:

Anybody else have an issue with actions disappearing and having to reinstall ALL of them?

Every few weeks, my actions disappear from Photoshop and I have to reinstall ALL of them? Anybody else have this issue?

I have occasionally lost data connectivity when I leave my house and have to flip airplane mode on then off to restore it. Otherwise I'm not near large crowds to see if I have any connectivity issues.
Do you know if you have the Portico update? Go to Settings > About and tap on more info. See what the OS version is. Portico is 8.0.10211.204.
Just want to see if its a build issue and may be non-Portico devices are having reception problems when it come to crowd density....
Also give Nokia a call, they would be interested in this issue and would tell you if its definitely a phone issue or OS. You can also post to their community and see if anyone else has some answers, http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Nokia-Lumia/bd-p/Nokia_with_Windows_Phone

Delay issue with mighty mouse and macbook pro. help?

Connected but delayed in movement. I am connected to an HD tv via HDMI and only a delay issue on the tv monitor. The mouse responds as normal on the laptop screen if I have it open, but on the TV it is delayed. Any clue as to what might be wrong? I am running HDMI to a converter for the mini display port and have seen it work many times with no delay. I have changed the batteries and reconnected/restarted the computer and the mouse numerous times.

Hey there, I'm on the forums because I can't get my wireless mouse to connect to my new MacBook Pro either (just got it yesterday). Bluetooth Device Manager seems to "see" it when it searches, but insists it can't connect to it, saying either "device not found" (which is ridiculous, since it's right up there in the list) or "cannot find the necessary services." Yet I cannot find anything definitive on the tubes to say that the two don't work together. Anyone else have any ideas for us??
I should mention I changed the batteries b/c at first I thought that's all it was. When it didn't work I brought it to a 2009 MacBook Pro, and that one connected no problem ::shaking head::

Issue with a procedure and IN operator...

Hi,
Data
Service_Request_id function_activity_ids
102092     2     2 -- Query works fine as v_function_activity_ids(i) = 22
102094 24,25,29 -- Query does not work and returns null as v_function_activity_ids(i) =24,25,29 is passed.
102152 23,24 -- Query does not work and returns null as v_function_activity_ids(i) =23,22 is passed.
CURSOR c_service_request_null IS
SELECT service_request_id,function_activity_ids,service_region_id
       FROM temp_sop_service_request
       WHERE function_activity_ids IS NOT NULL AND SERVICE_REQUEST_ID IN ( '102092','102094','102152');
<all the relevant vars. declared here...>
begin
OPEN c_service_request_null;
LOOP
    FETCH c_service_request_null
    BULK COLLECT INTO v_service_req_id,v_platform_type,v_service_country,v_service_state,
                      v_function_activity_ids,v_service_region_id
    LIMIT 500;
    EXIT WHEN v_row_count = c_service_request_null%ROWCOUNT;
    v_row_count := c_service_request_null%ROWCOUNT;
FOR i IN 1..v_service_req_id.count LOOP
        SELECT max(decode(upper(trim(region_id)),NULL,'UR',upper(trim(region_id))))

                 WHERE TRIM(FUNCTION_ACTIVITY_ID) IN (TRIM(v_function_activity_ids(i)))); --> Problem Here
END LOOP;
END;Now, when variable v_function_activity_ids(i) contains string 24,25,29 the above query does not give anything..i.e. it does not find the match and hence v_region_id(i) is returned as null.
But when request contains function_activity_ids as single i.e. 25 it works and v_region_id(i) is returned correctly.
Also, If I hardcode the value as under then it works :
SELECT max(decode(upper(trim(region_id)),NULL,'UR',upper(trim(region_id))))
        INTO v_region_id(i)
        FROM SOP_REGION_ACTIVITY_MAP
     WHERE
     (UPPER(TRIM(ACTIVITY_NAME)), UPPER(TRIM(SUB_ACTIVITY_NAME))) IN
               (SELECT UPPER(TRIM(ACTIVITY_NAME)), UPPER(TRIM(SUB_ACTIVITY_NAME))
                  FROM SOP_FUNCTION_ACTIVITY_MAP
                 WHERE TRIM(FUNCTION_ACTIVITY_ID) IN (TRIM(24,25,29)));Can you pls help me with this..
Thx..

Looks like You totally misunderstand the IN() clause.
In your scenario resulting query looks like
... in ( '24,25,29' ) - that's why You will never get result if two or more values comes from function.
Two solutions:
1) You can put values in the temporary table or table pl/sql and rewrite query appropriate way:
... in (select value from my_temp_table)
... in (select value from table(my_plsql_table))
2) While using 10g, You can format regexp pattern instead of 'val1,val2,val3' and use
... regexp_like(FUNCTION_ACTIVITY_ID, PATTERN)

Trackpad problem. I can get it to do everything except open the computer. I click on my logo and -nothing. Have to switch on the mouse and start with that. ? Does this happen to others?

My trackpad won't open up the computer. I click on my logo but nothing. One I have opened with the mouse the trackpad is fine. Anyone had this problem? dp

Hello there stidhambr15,
I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

Hi An Iphone user,
If you are having issues deleting a specific message from an iMessage conversation (not seeing the Trash icon), you may want to double-check that you are following the steps outlined in the following article:
How do I delete a message?
To delete a message, tap and hold the message bubble, then tap More.
Tap Delete All to delete all the messages. Or tap to select the messages you want to delete, then tap .
After you delete a message, you can recover it only by restoring from a backup.
Send messages with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

My itunes account shuts down for no reason. It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and itunes. I have already reinstalled itunes and did a syste restore on my computer, firewall checked and virus scan done. Ideas??

My itunes account on windows xp shuts down for no reason. If even try to delete something from my library it shuts down. It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and I can't connect to the store. I have already reinstalled itunes and did a system restore on my computer, firewall has been checked, itunes is ok on firewall and virus scan done. Ideas??

Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?
