My mouse cursor disappears behind the picture I'm working with!

While I was working on a picture in Photoshop, my mouse cursor disappeared. No crosshairs (I've already tried turning the caps lock on and off). It was just gone. I moved my mouse around and it appears whenever I choose a new tool or when I'm working with the layers or when I use something from the drop down bar, the mouse is there when I don't have anything open in Photoshop--just when I have the program open--but whenever I start working on a picture or a blank canvas it disappears, like it's going underneath the canvas (I found I can still draw and erase on the canvas, I just can't tell where since the cursor is gone). This is frustrating because I use Photoshop to create my digital artwork and my drawing pad is small, so I need to know where my cursor is in order to draw accurately.
Things I've done to resolve the problem thus far: I've downloaded the current Adobe update, I've tried adjusting my advanced properties settings on my computer, I've tried readjusting my cursor settings in my preferences, I've tried resetting my presets--thinking I might have miss clicked a combination of keys to make it happen--I've also tried closing out and going back into Photoshop, even turned my computer off, let it sit, and then turned it back on. But my mouse cursor continues to disappear underneath the canvas.
I plan on uninstalling and then reinstalling my Photoshop software--I hope that works. Otherwise, if that doesn't, does anyone know how to fix this issue?

Okay, so I figured this out how to resolve this issue a few days after posting my question. If you have the Nezumi Pro plugin for your Photoshop there is an option in the Nezumi settings to hide your cursor which can be easily activated by simply miss clicking F6. Once I figured this out and changed my cursor settings back to normal, my mouse reappeared.

  • Is there a way to keep the cursor from disappearing behind the keyboard when composing an email in iOS 8?

    When composing an email the cursor disappears behind the keyboard using iOS 8.  Is there a way to have it scroll up so that I can see what I am typing?  Was not a problem with iOS 7

    u can slide the message viewer all the way over to the RIGHT, thus hiding the message from view, and then delete at will from the expanded left column.

  • My Mouse Cursor Disappears coming out of standby and screensave​r!!

    I have a TX1000z, with a fresh install of Windows Vista Home Premium 64.  All drivers are current, including the video, networking, mouse, etc.  I am using the xb3000 port replicator with the logitech MX Revolution mouse and a bluetooth wireless keyboard.
    My mouse cursor disappears from the screen, sometimes both the laptop and the monitor (a Dell 22"), sometimes just one or the other.  I can still use the buttons and see different things highlight, but no mouse cursor.  It is not related to Windows Media Center as I have not run that on my laptop yet.  I can reboot and everything is fine, but then it will just disappear again and I cannot keep rebooting!  I have seen this problem posted all over the web, usually in relation to Windows Media Center and the "solution" is always the same...Disable Pointer Trails and "hide cursor while typing."  Neither of these has worked for me.  In fact, when I went in to disable trails, they were already disabled.  Actually, when I clicked on Enable Pointer Trails, the mouse becomes visible.  The mouse is then choppy (even when the trail is very short) and disappears again if I disable pointer trails.
    Here is a link to another post with a very similar problem, but the resolution was not posted (though a suggestion was):

    HELP!!

    Still an issue. No fix found for me either.
    Windows Vista 64 sp3. Latest NVidia Video drivers. External Logitech Trackball Marble Wireless. Trails disabled, Hide while typing Disabled.
    Happens when coming out of sleep, screensaver or hibernate. Usually on the primary screen only (dual display). Sometimes on all.

  • Mouse cursor disappears after captions timing warning

    This happens when I try in caption to change a time that conflicts with the following box. I punch in the illegal time by mistake, I get the warning pop up and then the mouse cursor disappears. At that point, I have to restart the software to get the cursor back back.

    Hello,
    I've tried to reproduce this problem -- but so far oi have not been able to reproduce the mouse-pointer vanishing. Can you break this down into some steps?
    Like this:
    1. Launch application
    2. Via File-> New-> Captions make a new Closed Caption accepting all defaults
    3. After the caption is opened from the Project area, make a few caption blocks/ slots via a the "+" button
    4. Put text in each block
    5. in the second caption, click on the "In:" time and type 000000000 and hit RETURN key
    6. Click <OK> in the caption overlap warning
    7. ...
    8. ..
    I'll try again when I see how you are getting the problem.
    Take care!

  • Mouse cursor disappearing

    I am using Apple Wireless Mighty Mouse and when I am browsing around on the internet my cursor seems to disappear occasionally if i move it into the toolbars... (back, forward, stop, address etc..) i can still click on things and stuff but i can't see the cursor?
    Any ideas?

    Yes I understand, It is almost as if the pointer
    slips under the buttons on the left of the toolbar,
    where the back & forward buttons are, for me it is
    has also been on the page as I approach the toolbar.
    I have no doubt it is the same sort of thing, as a
    matter of fact I had it happen yesterday on an AOL
    page, which I just tested on W3C....
    I encountered precisely this "arrow cursor disappears" or "mouse cursor disappears" in Safari uptodate on MacBook 2GHz w 1GB RAM. But I observed it on only a single page of a large site (www.philly.com).
    Thus I assume it is the coding of that page and Safari's picky rendering of W3C standards... and a W3C Validator check of that page's URL produced hundreds of errors in its coding, which I forwarded to the offending site's webmaster.
    Failed validation, 118
    Errors, clearly validated poorly using the beta v. of W3C.
    Mark up Validator.
    When you run into the problem check the site.
    The regular W3C
    Markup Validation Service gave this
    ->:Result: Failed validation,
    57 errors.
    I noticed that I didn't have the disappearing curser
    tonight when I visited the same AOL page in
    Del.ici.cous, using Safari Webkit
    I also just Installed "Security Update 2007-004, via
    SwUpdter not sure if that made any difference, which
    is recommended.
    Eme mentioned having just installed some software updates but didn't say what happened afterwards. In my case it only began to appear AFTER I installed "Security Update 2007-005 (Universal)" (1.1) and "Security Update (QuickTime 7.1.6)" (1.0).

    I think it's a bug with OS X 10.3.9.
    I used to suffer from something similar (cursor would become invisible when waking from sleep with external keyboard and monitor), until I upgraded to 10.4. I haven't had any trouble since.

  • Mouse cursor disappear using photoshop cs5.5

    mouse cursor disappear using photoshop cs5.5 ( IMAC MID 2010 )

    Before proceeding further, it is to be highlighted that the version being referred to is Photoshop CS5 Extended which is actually Photoshop Version 12.1 and is a part of Adobe Master Collection CS5.5. A screenshot of the version information is attached below for information.
    Hence, I dont understand the concern expressed by many about the lowest version eligible for scripting being available in the product.
    My version is in effect 12.1 and not 7 or 8.
    Accordingly someone may advise on what script to use for inserting the EXIF data onto the image. I also want that the positioning of the text is predetermined and same for a batch of images required to be processed. I dont want to fix the position of text for each individual image.

  • Mouse cursor disappears sometimes on Firefox for Mac

    Sometimes, only when Firefox is open, the mouse cursor disappears. I can still click, but the cursor is invisible.

    Does the mouse pointer only disappear when the pointer is in a Firefox window (user interface or browser part or both) or is it gone outside Firefox as well?

  • Calendar on iOS 7. Anyone noticed that when you enter text into the "notes section" of a day, the text disappears behind the keyboard rather than scrolling down to keep pace with text entry ? Looks like an 7 glitch to me ?

    Doesn't do that for me. Try resetting the phone

  • When I have my Firefox browser running, if I bring up a document from my computer, it appears briefly, then disappears behind the browser. It shows in the taskbar, but won't stay on top until I minimize all other windows.

    Hi NicoMan,
    According to your description ,we seem to suffer a performance issue here.
    Have you tried to open the task manager to check the system performance  ? Is there any specific process occupied many system resources ?Will the issue occur only with the specific applications ?
    We can try to restart the Windows Explorer process to have a check.
    If it only occurred with the spefcific two applications ,we can try to end the other application processes manually from the task manager to have a check .
    If this is caused by the specific application ,we may need to look for help from the third party support considering they are all the third party applications .
    Best regards

  • The text disappears behind the keyboard

    When I'm using Notes the text I'm typing disappears behind the keyboard as it get so far down the page - any solutions?

    I assume that you are talking about the built in Notes App. The "sheet" should move up as you are typing and no text should be hidden by the keyboard. At least that's the way it works on my iPad.
    Quit Notes and the launch it again and see what happens when text start getting close to the keyboard.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your 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 of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button again.
    Go back to Notes and try it now.

  • What is the best way to work with Word documents in The InDesign CS4???

    I work in Microsoft Word 2007 and all my documents have *.doc format.
    What is the best way to work with Word documents in InDesign CS4???
    David Blatner says to avoid copying and pasting text from Word instead of placing it (Ctrl+D).
    How about pasting RTF or Text Document???
    I want to make book's layout in ID CS4 and its main feature is that there is the left page with text and the right - with graphics.
    So, as I understand to place the text on each page I must create for example 70 Word documents and place each item on 70 left pages???
    It loks like wasting time. I sthere another way of making such layout???  What kind????

    It's best to place any text.
    You can have all of your text in one file and use auto-flow to add threaded text frames and pages as required (Hold down the Shift key when you click the loaded text cursor), but it's a little non-standard to have the thread only on one side of the spread from the auto-flow perspective, so you'll have to set up properly.
    This is one case where a master text frame will work to your advantage. On your master page spread, add a text frame to the left page, but not to the right (or at least not threaded to one on the right -- for some other project you might actually want two independent text threads). Hold the loaded cursor over a frame on the left side of a document page and auto-flow. ID will add new spreads as necessary, but only put the text on the left side.
