Mouse pointer lagging??
occassionally the mouse icon will lag for a few seconds as i'm using the computer. why? this is a brand new computer and brand new Leopard software. how do i fix this??
I have had this problem a lot too. My MBP will lag whenever the Airport card is trying to detect networks in the area. My mouse will violently lag so much that the mouse will hit the corners of my screen, activating the hotspots assigned to them. It is so bad that I have had to turn off my wireless Airport card just to make sure there are no more errors.
I have been wondering if I am the only one with this glitch.

Mouse pointer lag (trackpad and mouse)
Hi all,
I recently purchased a MacBookPro 13 inch for my work. It's the i7 version wth 8 gig of ram with mountain lion installed.
I have some major problems with both my mouse and my trackpad. The cursor has a lot of lag, it kind of make stutter and jumps. I tried multipe input devices and also on different computers. First I thought it was the mouse, but even the trackpad has the same problem! Should I bring back my laptop? I can't work like this.
I figured out that whenever there is some IO happening, the lagging will get worse. I tried a wireless mouse, wired mouse . . . nothing helped.
Anyone here got a solution?
ThanksI have the same problem on my iMac using a usb wired mouse. The mouse worked fine with Lion, but the pointer is "sticky" with Mountain Lion. Seems to work fine for a while after a reboot or unplug/plug cycle of the mouse, but after a day or so the problem returns. I have been searching here for a solution, but have found none yet. Sounds like a software issue that Apple needs to find and fix.
Otherwise, have to treat my Mac like a Windows machine and do a daily preventive reboot... -
Mouse pointer laggy over layers panel
The mouse pointer is lagging when hovering over the layers panel. This is seriously unnerving.
Anyone else experiencing this?Photoshop version, OS etc.?
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/375816?tstart=0
Boilerplate-text:
Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by keeping command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift pressed while starting Photoshop after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)? -
Games/Programs/Mouse pointer Stuttering and Freezing
Hi people
I've recently (5 days ago) built a new PC. I have had loads of problems with it.
First of all after building it, i installed windows XP Professional SP2. Although the PC worked, it was stuttering.
Whenever i performed a task (opening a program, extracting a zip/rar, loading a web page...LITERALLY ANYTHING..) the mouse pointer would pause/stutter/lag for a brief second then return to normal. It would do this several times depending on the length of the process that the computer was dealing with. If i was downloading a file, the mouse pointer would do this until the file was completely downloaded. Sometimes it would simply freeze on the screen and you could see a "Ghost" of the mouse as it rolled over things/selected things.
I even tried doom 3 and the game did the same. A pause every second or so. This also affected the sound causing it to loop sentences (which is why i think it's a mainboard prob.)
I followed the MSI manual and spoke to friends to try to sort this out. I installed all the relevant drivers for the Graphics Card and then went to install the NForce drivers. When i did this and then restarted, Windows wouldn't load anymore. Frustrated, i reinstalled Windows.
Reinstalled, i tried reinstalling them again. Same result. Another reinstall later and i decided to consult the MSI website. It advised updating the Bios. I consulted a computer savvy friend and he suggested the same thing. I did this and then damn thing wouldn't boot anymore. It got stuck on the boot up screen. Very pissed off, i tried reinstalling windows... AGAIN.
Still no luck. It simply wouldn't boot from the hard drive. After 2 days of worrying, i managed to reset the bios back to v1.0 and another reinstall of windows and i was back to the start.
I have left it for now but am incredibly worried about installing the new Nforce drivers or updating the bios again. It was a bloody nightmare.
Now you know my story... here is the question.
"Does anyone have ANY IDEA WHY THE HELL MY COMPUTER SEEMS TO BE FREEZING/STUTTERING?"
My housemates reckon that it could be an IRQ conflict. If that isn't the case, what else could it be? Any ideas would help. I'm not very confident with computer hardware problems and don't know much of the jargon that goes with it.
I've searched the forums and i can't find anything that is too similar although the "USB IRQ Conflict" problems seem possibly relevant.

I've done a graphic card test and that is ok apparently, I've done 3 FULL formats of the Hard disk and all the drivers that i have installed are all the newest out there and are all the correct ones. As you can also see, i have a 450w power supply which should be adequate enough to handle the system.
Hmm... This is a bugger of a problem. Thanks for the advice though. -
Safari won't open and wheel (mouse pointer) keeps spinning
Hi guys.
I'm going crazy here as everything I've read and tried doesn't work?
I've deleted cache files, history, plug-ins etc etc and every time I try and launch Safari, I keep getting the spinning wheel/beach ball/mouse pointer and safari doesn't open?
I've received the following long error message and it may as well be in Arabic as I haven't got a clue what it means?
Any techies out there who could shed some light "Error message for dummies' style please?
This is the report error.
Cheers,
Marc

You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

no matter what website, every time I move the mouse pointer over something to click on a line of black printing in a thin white box pops up at the bottom of the screen and shows me the http address of the item I'm about to click on. I want to shut this function off or remove it if possible. I find that the previous version did not do this, it seems to be unique to 6.0. It's VERY distracting and ANNOYING. How can I make it go away????
When you hover the mouse cursor over any link, it will display the link details at the bottom left of the screen; black font on white background.
This display can be very important as it shows the full address of the hyperlink. This can be particulary useful for checking on whether the link is bona-fida. For example; if you receive an email that looks like it is from a bank , hovering over the link will indicate instantly that the link is pretending to be something it isn't.
Another example that can be useful; a website link may say 'contact me' rather than give the actual email address. However, when you hover over the link, the actual email address will be displayed at the bottom of the screen. If you click on the link then Outlook usually opens, however I do not use Outlook, so displaying the email address is useful.
This display is something that has always been present and it is also displayed if you use IE.
However, I can see that this annoys you, so you could try the following:
[[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/link-location-bar/?src=api]]
After installing the addon, you will need to restart Firefox, then go to History and Restore previous session to get all your tabs and webpages back.
You will now find that when you hover over any link, it will now display in your address bar on the right hand side.
If this helps, please say this question has been solved. -
I recently bought, from the original website of Adobe, Photoshop elements 13. However, when I go with my mouse pointer over the menu, It hangs or he works very slow. Does anyone have an idea how I can fix it? I have already downloaded updates, both from Adobe and Windows. I have a new pc with window 8.1.
It could be a coincidence, but I rebooted the machine and (knock on wood) PSE13 seems to be working ok.

C655D 5210 tosiba black screen with mouse pointer
I have only had this computer for 8 months. One day I turned it on, and windows kept restarting. After a few trouble shooting steps off the internet, I decided to reinstall windows 7 and lose my data and start all over. The first time it could not repair the computer and asked me to send the information to microsoft. Cannot boot in safe mode, I can get to the setup utility screen. This is a new Windows 7 cd. After several tries, it installed and said it had to restart, (this may happen several times) it only restarted once, then a black screen with a cursor. When I try to boot from the cd, the windows logo apppears, then a black screen with mouse pointer again. Toshiba is no help at all. This is my third Toshiba laptop. The first one did the same thing. But it was out of warranty, the amount they wanted to charge us, i just got another one. My mom's Toshiba just died with no real reason, the old one is in the garbage, and this one is only 8 months old. Toshiba would like us to send the computer in, pay for shipping, wait for 3 weeks, pay to ship it back to us, with a promise that it may not work.
Please help

Mouse pointer Problem with CS3 and windows 7
Upgraded
to a new PC which has Windows 7(32bit) as an operating system. Installed my Photoshop CS3 and everything seems ok except when I magnify in the navagator panel. Once I zoom in my mouse pointer changes to 3 hands in the navigator panel. I powered up my old laptop which has Vista and my CS3
then matched up the mouse settings in the control panel on the new PC. Used the same usb mouse on both PC's, the older Vista laptop worked fine but the windows 7 PC would get a tripple pointer in the navigation panel when I magnified. In the windows 7 laptop I then set the compatibility for Photoshop CS3 to run in XP mode but the problem did not clear. I see in FAQ for CS4 people have complained about tripple cursers in windows 7 but the replies indicated that the recommended fix did not work. Any help apreciated.
TomThanks for your solution. I by changing the setting to 125% I am now able to use CS3 without tripple pointers.
My eyesight is challenged so the decrease in text is a challenge but I can change the setting when I will use CS3 so I have a workarount.
Thanks,
Tom -
Mouse pointer invisible - intel 945GM
Hey people, thought I would document this in case others have problems. I have partially solved the issue, but if someone knows a better solution please contribute. I think this is specific to the intel xorg driver but not totally sure.
I rebooted my eeepc (Intel 945GM, using stock driver) today and when I got into X there was no mouse pointer. I quickly found that the mouse is in fact there, you can right-click and get a menu etc, its just there is no pointer so your flying blind.
A bit of Googling suggested it was something to do with using xrandr to enable/disable outputs, which is what I do. At home the eeepc sits on the desk connected to my external monitor. In my .xinitrc I have it set up so it detects when its connected to the monitor and automatically enables it (VGA) and disables the laptop screen (LVDS).
So to try and get the mouse back I re-enabled the LVDS
xrandr --output LVDS --auto
The eeepc screen comes back on (in clone mode) and sure enough the mouse pointer is visible on that screen, but not on the external VGA. After a bit of tooling around I found that if you enable both screens in extended desktop mode, the pointer is then visible on both.
xrandr --output LVDS --right-of VGA --auto
Once the pointer is working on both screens you can then turn off the LVDS again, and the pointer remains working on the external, everything back to normal.
xrandr --output LVDS --off
PART 2 - This is actually a question if anyone can help me
In order to use dual monitors like an extended desktop, you will find that you need to set the virtual desktop size in your xorg.conf display section. Something like:
virtual 2304 1024
BUT...since we now bask in the glory that is hot-plugging and hal wizardry, I don't have an xorg.conf. Does anyone know how to set the virtual framebuffer size using xrandr, without having to use an xorg.conf?
And while I think about it, why do we even need to set a virtual size manually really, xorg knows the dimensions of connected displays, you would think it could set a default virtual framebuffer to the width of the connected outputs, would make it much easier. /rant
Anyway, any more info on the subject much appreciated.
Last edited by Wittfella (2009-10-22 14:36:09)The cursor issue sounds like an upstream bug - you should report it to https://bugs.freedesktop.org.
Wittfella wrote:Does anyone know how to set the virtual framebuffer size using xrandr, without having to use an xorg.conf?
Can't be done. The virtual fb size tells your graphics driver how big a framebuffer to allocate at X start time. It can't be changed later. Which is too bad, and a major limitation of randr. I think it does set the virtual fb size correctly when it starts, but that size will be wrong when you add another monitor for example. -
Moving mouse pointer to menu dims window and shows all open windows at once
when i'm in safari and i move my mouse pointer to the upper left corner of a window that is almost full screen, that window dims and a black bar appears in the middle of this window with a discription of it. as an example
APPLE=SUPPORT-DISCUSSIONS-POST MESSAGE:NEW THREAD
if i have 2 windows open one shows lower left and the other upper right and i have to click the mouse button on the window i was using to get it back and get the other behind it.
is there a setting in preferances that causes this that i can change?This is what happens for one of the active corners for Exposé, if ("all windows") is the upper left corner. Take a look at "System preferences" , Dashboard & Exposé.

Is there a way to keep the mouse pointer in my window
I would like to change the cursor so that it can not go outside my application window until they exit the program. Is this possible?
Just because you disagree with its usage does not make
it an invalid question. Suppose you had an
application dedicated to real-time monitoring of a
high-pressure system. In our hypothetical example,
accessing other parts of the system without first
properly "dismissing" the application could be
potentially hazardous - people could get hurt. In
this case, would it not make sense to make the
application "system-modal"? Furthermore, it would be
a convenience to the operator if the mouse pointer
were trapped in this critical application.
How would one go about trapping the mouse cursor
inside this application?Yes, it would make sense to make this application system-modal. And it would also make sense to not allow any other applications to run on the monitoring system. For such an application, then, it would occupy the entire screen and there would be no way to swap away from it to any other application. Which is what several people suggested for this rather non-critical application, I believe.
But in the ordinary case, where you are running on a system that does allow multiple applications to run, trapping the mouse cursor in a single application is bad manners and an alternate solution should be sought. -
Can't undo a Huge Mouse Pointer after upgrading from Tiger to Leopard.
I did an upgrade from Leopard to Tiger.
When I was on Tiger, I had a setting for a huge mouse pointer. I upgraded to Leopard. No matter how many times I reset the pointer to small, when restarting it goes back to huge.
How can I fix this?gaccawi,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
No matter how many times I reset the pointer to small, when restarting it goes back to huge.
That statement indicates to me that you have made this attempt using System Preferences>Universal Access>Mouse>For difficulties seeing the mouse...Normal.
If that is the true, have you previously installed any third party pointer software?
