Mouse freezes when Wlan is active

Heya
I have a problem with my 3days Old Macbook Pro. When i activate Airport, systems starts to freez for a half a second or boosts (mouse moves too fast).
I think it started to happen when i updated wlan drivers. But not sure.
If airport is turned off this does not happen.
I did a full Hardware scan and it did not found any fault in hardware.
Any solutions?

I am having the same exact problem as well. The entire computer will freeze every few seconds when searching or trying to connect to a server. When it is connected or turned off it will work fine.
The mouse is most noticeable with how it jumps all over the screen.
Also, my wireless will not connect to a WEP encrypted internet. It was working in the library one minute, then I updated my computer to 4.10.11, restarted my computer and now it has been giving me problems. I reformatted and reinstalled software and kept it at 10.4.10, but still cannot connect to WEP with a password and computer freezes momentarily while searching for wireless.
Any help appreciated.

  • Mouse freezes when disconnecting from Internet

    The mouse freezes when I click on the Disconnect button in the Remote Access Panel. It doesn't happen every time. I can't do anything but turn off the computer then boot it up again. Any ideas?

    Hi, Fuggles -
    Since the mouse freezing appears to be specific to an action in OS 9, it should not carry over to OSX.
    Some concerns about installing Tiger (OSX 10.4) -
    • Firmware
    Be sure you have updated the firmware in that machine before installing OSX. You can download the appropriate firmware updater from this Apple KBase article -
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75129
    <hr>
    • OS 9 version
    The preceding firmware update installs only when the machine is running OS 9.1 or OS 9.2.x from its hard drive. And, if you plan to use OS 9 as Classic under OSX, it must be at least OS 9.1; OS 9.2.x provides better compatibility for that mode.
    Therefore, you should update your OS 9.0.x to at least OS 9.1, and perhaps to OS 9.2.x. You can do that using download updates, which you can get from these Apple pages -
    Article #75103 - Mac OS 9.1 - Download and Info
    Article #120030 - Mac OS 9.2.1 - Download and Info
    Article #75186 - Mac OS 9.2.2 - Download and Info
    Note that those must be installed in sequence; none can be skipped. However, you can skip the need to obtain one or more of those large downloads if you get a retail OS 9.1 or a retail OS 9.2.1 Install CD, and do a direct install of that version.

    • Startup Disk
    The version of Startup Disk control panel that comes with OS 9.1 and earlier is not capable of 'seeing' OSX as a valid OS, hence switching to OSX from OS 9.1 or earlier can be difficult. However, there is a solution - download and install a replacement control panel, which can be got from this article -
    Startup Disk 9.2.1 Document and Software
    Note - in spite of what that article states, that replacement control panel will work in OS's earlier than OS 9.1; it as been tested successfully in OS's as old as OS 8.6. It is not needed for OS 9.2.1 or later.
    <hr>
    • RAM
    The requirements for Tiger state a minimum of 256MB of physical RAM; a minimum of 512MB is more realistic. More RAM is better.
    OSX is much pickier about RAM than OS 9 is. If your machine has any after-market (non-original) RAM in it, it would be a good idea to download and run DIMM First Aid. That utility can do some basic tests, but more important;y it can repair some sub-spec modules so that they are compliant with Apple's specs.
    Note - do this before installing the firmware update mentioned above.

    • Hard drive space
    Tiger will need about 3GB in order to install, and runs best when there is an additional 5GB of unused space on the drive (it uses that space for its version of virtual memory, swap files, defragging on the fly, etc.). It would be best if your hard drive has at least 8GB unused space on it before installing Tiger.

  • Keyboard and mouse freeze when trying to play Maplestory

    I recently purchased a Macbook Pro and have boot camped Windows XP sp3 onto it.
    I play a game called maplestory, and when I try to play it via boot camp, my keyboard and mouse freeze as soon as all of the intro splashes are done (So, once I get to the log in screen).
    All background programs work fine, however since I can't use my keyboard or mouse I can't do anything. The Apple Remote also doesn't function.
    This problem seems to be exclusive to Maplestory, as games such as Warcraft 3, Diablo 2, Doom3, and Portal all work fine.

  • Mouse freeze when surfing the internet

    HELP! For no apparent reason the mouse all of a sudden stops responding and sits dead on the screen after surfing on the internet. How do I reset the mouse or is there another way to handle this?

    When you say it freezes does it turn into the a spin wheel that is spining? Or does the mouse completely just stop and get stuck? Are you using the trackpad or a External Mouse? Because there are so many reasons why.
    1. When this happens how many applications do you have open? The more applications that need more memory makes the computer slow/freezes when it tries to catch up to itself.
    If you can click outside of safari that means that the program itself is frozen where you will need to either press
    b Command/Apple + Option + Esc
    to force quit it. or go to
    b Apple Menu - Select Force Quit - Pick the application you want to quit
    I don't really know what exactly is going on with your iBook, If you provide more information about everything that you are doing when this happens theres a better chance the problem will get solved. I hope I helped out a bit.

  • USB mouse freezes when external HD is connected

    Not sure who to contact on this one.  I purchased some music software from East/West and it came on a Western Digital hard drive.  Every time I connect the hard drive, my mouse freezes and I can't open the drive.  Any ideas???  Sounds like a compatibility issue but the HD is supposed to be for Mac.

    - Have you tried another cable for HD?
    - If you open Finder. unplug the mouse and then plug the HD in does the HD appear in Finder (it has to be formatted for a Mac to appear)
    - Have you tried on anther computer? Either Mac or PC.
    - Do other devices like USB thrumb drive work on the Mini?

  • MBP freeze when no graphic activity

    My model is MacBook Pro with retina display, 13-inch, purchased on late 2013. Recently updated to OS X Yosemite 10.10.2.
    Everything worked just fine until two days ago, when I was surfing the web, the computer froze. I can't move the mouse and type anything. I had to shut it down by press the power button. Then I restarted it, it froze again shortly after I logged in.
    I tried the safe mode and reseted the PRAM, didn't work. Online diagnostic, memory test and disk test reported no hardware fault. I then erase the whole disk and reinstall OS X for twice, same problem still exist. Computer always froze shortly after login.
    I accidentally find something interesting for this problem. As long as I keep moving the mouse or play a video, the computer will not get frozen. I further found that as long as there is some graphic activity on the screen, the computer will keep running, once there is no graphic activity for about 5 seconds, the computer freeze immediately.  (I tried keep typing something by keyboard, but it didn't prevent the computer from getting frozen).
    Do you guys have any idea about this? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    I have the same problem. When no external monitor/TV is used, no issues ever. When using HDMI-DVI and using HDMI as sound output, freezes every 15-45 mins. When using just video, no audio, freezes every 30-90 mins.
    When I called apple support, they said no known issues. I ran the low level Apple hardware diagnostics (ASD 3S138) OS and EFI, and my mac passed every single test. (DVI port is not listed on the diagnostic)
    Everything is up to date, and my MBP is was purchased in August (3 months old).
    My buddy has a MBP 13" from a year ago, before they added the capability to output sound through DVI-HDMI, and he has never had an issue.
    This seems to be a hardware issue, and only seems to be happening on the 13" MBP with the new DVI out that allows sound that was released mid 2010.

  • Mac Mini mouse freezes when connected to interactive white board

    Our school district has several Mac Mini's (OS 10.4.11) connected to interactive white boards (Smart). With regularity the mouse and/or keyboards will "freeze", often in the lower left hand corner of the screen, and will only operate normally when the USB cord for the Smartboard is disconnected. Then all functions of the computer return. This effectively means that the interactive whiteboard is no longer useful. Has anyone else encountered these issues with Macminis? Could it be a software issue??
    Additionally I have had constant problems with our Mac minis "freezing" in our computer lab when students are working on them. If they have several applications open this happens regularly. Are these machines prone to freezing?

    Yes sounds like you already know the answer. I'd contact Smart or whomever makes this whiteboards to see if they know about compatibility with the macmini's you use.
    As far as being prone to freezing no I've not seen any long or lengthy threads about freezing or other such complaints around here so I don't think so.
    I've had my mini for almost a year now and push it pretty hard and find it almost impossible to make it freeze,reboot,lockup or any such thing myself.

  • Mouse freezes when opening multiple windows

    With web browser open and several other windows, mouse seems to freeze with random jerky movements.  I can eventually drag the cursor up to the Apple logo to restart system.

    Dear all,
    I think I have the same problem... or not ?!
    => When I try to open multiple files at the same time it opens only the 2 or 3 first ones then it freezes on the Spinning Beach Ball of Death !
    => Then it never completely finishes loading and freezes up Indesign.
    => I am unable to cancel the dialog box and have to use cmd+alt+esc to close the program
    => then, the files open directly on indesign when I open the program again (jus as if the files had been loaded and ready to go)
    I am working on MAC OS X (10.7.3)
    Anybody could help please ?? (sorry for my english... I'm a French native speaker) 

  • Microsoft standard optical wireless mouse freezes when Mac sleeps

    When G4 sleeps for a few minutes or more the Microsoft standard optical mouse is frozen on wake up. Takes about a literal minute to un-freeze. Once unfrozen mouse behaves normally. This problem began about a month ago perhaps about six weeks ago.
    No amount of clicking or keyboard manipulation helps. Unplugging and re connecting the transmitter from it's USB port is sometimes successful at unfreezing but not always. Rarely the Mac is totally frozen and cannot even be power cycled. Only unplugging or turning off the power at the surge protector breaks the freeze. I have tried totally uninstalling the mouse and re-installing without benefit. I have reset power management and cleared p-ram, run disk warrior and disk utility.. no impact on the problem.
    Thank-you for any help.

    Hi, Robert -
    A couple of issues may pertain.
    • Hardware
    I use MS Intellimouse Explorer mouses with my G4s - I like the extra buttons and the 'feel' of the mouse. I had problems initially - after a few months of use the mouse, and sometimes the keyboard, would freeze (cease working) - sometimes unplugging and replugging would fix it, sometimes a reboot was necessary. Finally the keyboard died completely.
    After replacing the keyboard I came across Apple KBase Article #58649 which led me to believe that the power requirements from the mouse might be overloading the keyboard. I reconfigured my USB setup so that the keyboard was connected directly to the Mac and the mouse to a port in the powered hub in my monitor. I have not had that problem since then (several years).
    • Software
    I don't know about the OSX version of MS's mouse software, but the OS 9 version of it is lacking somewhat, and, in my experience, is not reliable. I use USB Overdrive instead of MS's mouse software - it's very stable and offers more features and controls than the MS software does. There is a version of it available for OSX.

  • Mouse freeze when plugging my iPod in my Laptop...

    Hello,
    This is the 2nd post I'm posting due to very strange iPod behaviour... As well as not being seen in my iMac, I have noticed a strange thing with my XP laptop at work : when I plug my iPod, the mouse plugged into the laptop freezes...
    Anyone had the same issue? What to do???
    For info : my laptop is an IBM T42, into a docking station and with a IBM mouse plugged into the docking station...
    Thank in advance for your help!

    First of all, thanks for your answers!
    Scott, I indeed loaded the latest drivers of the mouse but this does not solve the issue : same blocked USB mouse while plugging the iPod...
    Now, it is true that I can still use the keypad of the laptop. The only problem I have is that the laptop is on my left, and I am right-handed... And what is the point of having a real mouse at work if it was to use the keypad...
    I even noticed a starnger thing : in the device manager, my HID complient mouse totally disappears while plugging the iPod...
    So anyony having the same trouble? Anyone found a solution to this???
    Thanks in advance for your help!

  • Mouse Freeze when Application starts

    I have a recurring problem when I run an application I have recently built in Java.
    During debugging, where I have been starting and stopping the app frequently, at some point the the mouse buttons become un-useable. The mouse is in this state only on the app window, working fine in other apps. I had to include an accelerated menu item to allow me to close it, as the mouse cant even be used to close the app.
    I can move the mouse over the app no problem, its just the click that wont work, for example to click and change text areas, close the window, or press a button (which unfortunately are the events that drive this app).
    This is not a serious problem as it only occurs after several stops and starts of the app, which won't be occuring when launched live. Despite this, I can almost always be gurenteed that it will happen eventually at some point during testing.
    The only thing that solves the problem is restarting the machine. Also, I originally thought the problem came from trying to open a Socket on port 80 when another app was using that port. I then changed the piort number and it worked fine, until today when the problem started again.
    Does anybody have any thoughts on this and on ways to prevent it?

    I've had similar problems. However, these have occured with Java applications created by others. It's happened with the two piece of software I have which are written in Java and are from completely different developers (one is from Sun!) so I'm pretty sure it's a problem with Java itself.
    The problem usually occurs for me after the app has been open for some time (how long exactly differs, but sometimes just five minutes) although once happened right from the start. I can use the mouse to switch focus to a dialog box but that's about it. As you mentioned, it's fine in other (non-Java) apps. In one of my applications, it takes every mouse movement as a selection. Given that this app is a text-editor, this is very annoying!
    Restarting Windows puts everything back to normal. (For a while, at least...) However, I've got better things to be doing with my time!
    Does anyone have any suggestions as to how this could be fixed? Should I upgrade / patch something?
    thanks
    Sam

  • Weird Problem -- Mouse Freezes when I plug in my camera

    Hey guys,
    I've been combing the forums and have found some similar issues reported but no solutions to speak of.
    Here's the deal:
    My camera -- Minolta Dimage A200 -- I've had it for 2 months now and have connected it to my iMac G4 800 mhz dozens of times without incident.
    Now..about 1 week ago I upgraded to Tiger. Two days ago my wife connected the camera and uploaded a few pictures without having any issues. Although, I'm more than certain that she wouldn't have ejected the camera properly.
    Yesterday I tried to connect the camera and this is what happened:
    As soon as I connect the usb cable with the camera attached to it my keyboard and mouse go dead. It doesn't matter what port I use...the same thing happens. If I unplug the camera and then unplug and replug the keyboard and mouse they spring back to life. If I plug in just the usb cable everything is fine. If the camera is attached(on or off) the keyboard/mouse go dead.
    I read some speculation about the port not having enough power so I tried to plug the camera into my Powered usb hub. This didn't work either. My mouse didn't go dead but the light at the port I plugged into went dark and the computer was none the wiser as to the camera's presence...not good.
    I have to believe that my problem has something to do with:
    1. Upgrading to Tiger
    and
    2. Not ejecting the camera properly on first use with tiger.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    BTW...I also tried formatting my memory card on the camera.

    Hmmm...
    A bit disappointed that no one has come to my rescue.
    I went out and bought a CF media reader today and it circumvents the problem nicely...for $29.99 Canadian.
    It's actually nice to use the reader and not have to worry about the camera and cables and what not.
    Still...I want to know what the problem is.
    I'll keep checking the thread in hopes of enlightenment.

  • Mouse freezes when not moved

    If I stop moving the mouse for few seconds, then I need to move it for about 2-3 seconds before the cursor starts moving again.
    It is a wireless Logitech mouse. I suppose it has something to do with USB ports or mouse going to sleep.

    You don't have to disable the usb-autosuspend of laptop-mode. You just have to add the device in the black list of the autosuspend configuration.
    edit this file:
           /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/usb-autosuspend.conf
    the USBID blacklist doesn't work for me but I used the USBTYPE blacklist with "usbhid",
    and then reload the configuration with:
        systemctl restart laptop-mode.service

  • Mouse freezes when IPOD connects via USB

    Hello,
    I recently purchased a 30GB Video IPod, however I haven't been able to put any music on It as the mouse (which is also USB like the keyboard)locks out.
    I've tried switching which ports are used by the keyboard and mouse, and I've got the keyboard sorted. So it is just the mouse now. I've uninstalled and downloaded the new version of ITunes and IPod updater too.
    Any clues to the solution fromanyone who's experienced the same. It's rather annoying. Hope you can help,
    All the best,
    Mark

    I am having the same issue as well. My mouse is plugged into my keyboard, which is plugged into my apple monitor. I try to plug my ipod into the front of my G5 and the mouse and keyboard goes dead. Tried plugging things into different ports... no luck...

  • Mouse and keyboard freezing when first turn on computer

    Everytime I fully shut off my computer and turning it back on, my mouse freezes when i press something on my keyboard. Even my keyboard stops working. This problem stops happening after i restart my computer, then my mouse and keyboard starts working. Because of this i keep my computer on all the time so i don't have to keep restarting everytime i start the computer. Is this a normal problem and is there a way to fix this? It tends to get really annoying.
