My Mouse keeps moving my screen around. How do I re-anchor it?

Goto trackpad in sys pref and try reducing your tracking speed or goto universal access in sys pref and check the mouse and trackpad settings...try altering them to solve your problem

After the last update, on 9/9/11, my firefox only moves when the cursor moves. In other words, in order to progress from page to page I have to keep moving the cursor around. IE does not have the same problem.

This only started happening after the latest update on 9/9. I am using Windows 7 and Firefox 6.0.2

Check and tell if its working.

Upgraded to FF4 sites were slow loading or not loading at all - then I discovered it downloads if I keep moving the cursor. If I stop moving the cursor the downloading stops or slows to a crawl again.

Firefox 4.01 keeps dimming the screen after a few secnds unless you keep moving the mouse.This is very annoying. It doesn't do it on Explorer or while in Windows so it is only happening ince I upgraded to 4.01

It doesn't do it on Explorer or while in Windows.
It is only happening since I upgraded to 4.01
It happens even on this page if I stop typing or moving the mouse.

Symantec have released an update for Norton 360 to make it compatible with Firefox 4, for details see http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US

My iPad 2 only keeps a set number of emails for me to view eventually deleting from the screen. How do stop this as it syncs with my phone and mac book pro neither of which do this?

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

My wife was using Bing and the tool bar moved to the center of the screen. How do I move it back?

My wife went to use Bing this AM. When it came up the tool bar was in the middle of the screen! How do I get it back?

Hold keyboard button down for a second or two and select Dock.

HT5557 I've always been able to see the clock at the top of the screen in iPad iBooks, but the clock has now disappeared unless I tap at the stop of the screen. How can I get the clock to stay at the top of the screen?

cktan124: I searched around and found the iPad does not have a PRAM.
Anyone else want to guess?
I found many folks here trying to hide of the clock, but I need the clock. I use a PDF on my iPad for my notes when I am speaking in front of an audience. I need the clock so I can kep track of time.

Mouse coordinates on the screen

is it possible to get mouse coordinates on the screen? i want to make a program which makes screenshots of areas on the screen and i want use the mouse to mark them.
how could i do that? is it possible to get mousecoordinates even if the mouse is outside the java JFrame?
there must be a way! i searched in the forum but i found no answer.
please don't tell me i have to use jni, the app should be platform independent.

Yeah, basically there's no way to do this. This should be requested if it hasn't already (too lazy to check). It's not hard for sun to add, they just need to add it. Ok, anyway, I looked into it and see if there was a way to do this even somewhat reasonably in Java. I was very disappointed. I pretty much had no luck, but I did get a lame way of implementing this :P After some thought, this is what I ended up with:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class MousePosition extends JFrame implements MouseMotionListener
    private int x = 0;
    private int y = 0;
    private boolean isAP = true;
    public MousePosition()
        setSize(300, 300);
        setLocation(200, 200);
        addMouseMotionListener(this);
        addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter()
            public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e)
                isAP = false;
        setVisible(true);
        try
            Robot r = new Robot();
            r.mouseMove(getLocation().x + 50, getLocation().y + 50);
            r.mousePress(InputEvent.BUTTON1_MASK);
        } catch(AWTException e) {}
    public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e)
        System.out.println(e.getX() + getLocation().x + ", " + (e.getY() + getLocation().y));
    public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) {}
    public static void main(String[] args)
        new MousePosition();
}So it'll "lock" the program getting the absolute coordinates until you press the mouse, then you're free to do what you want. You could also do this with keyPressed or anything else you want. JNI would be the real solution as of now, until then I think sun should address the problem.

My Late 2009 Model 10,1 running 10.8.5 frequently acts as though I have pushed the F11 button, but I haven't. The cables are not loose. Gently touching the mouse will get the screen back, but often it immediately goes to the F11 mode.

I called Apple. The problem was caused by settings in Mission Control. After changing all 4 of the Hot Keys (if that's the proper term) shown in the bottom half of the Mission Control window in System Preferences to "-" by clicking on the drop down menus, the problem went away. Apple's help was excellent!

I was trying to make a new screen recording using quicktimeplay, but when I watched the video after recording it all I could hear was me talking while the video was showing on the screen. How do I turn off that recording and turn the right one on? thanks

Hi j2399123,
It sounds like your screen recording is doing what it was designed to do, capture what is happening on your screen, with optional voice over with the microphone.
Screen recording is for recording what you see on the screen, it is not a "video capture" option, like for capturing a movie with sound that is playing on your screen.
For the QuickTime recording options, check out "Recording with QuickTime Player" in
Mac Basics: QuickTime Player creates, plays, edits, and shares video and audio files
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4024
And for screen recording specifically, there's
QuickTime Player 10.x: Record your computer’s screen

Thank you for thinking of Apple Support Communities for your support needs.

I have an iPhone 6 with IOS 8.1.3 and when I use the landscape view in Safari, the bookmark page appears and takes up one half of the screen. How can I get rid of the bookmark page so I can have the whole screen to what I am browsing?

OOPS! Too quick on the trigger to ask that question without trying anything. Sorry. Solved it by touching the bookmark icon.

Re: That garbage is unreadable.
If you really want help, stop messing with the fonts and post so that others can read and offer suggestions.
Or better yet... try a search, I'm certain you'll find a solution to whatever issue you're experiencing.
I have found that many times it is the things that make you most angry that push you to action. This was the case here. Thank you for causing me to get so angry that I found the answer myself.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

I have a new iPhone 5C, have the sounds alerts set up. But I'm not getting sound alerts for new voicemail, only the red circle on the screen. How can I make the sound alert work?

I have had this same problem for weeks now with my 4S. I just got a new 5S after being extremely frustrated and the same thing - no sounds. After searching posts all over, I couldn't find a solution. I just told my friend of the issue and he asked "Do you have the Do Not Distrub on?" I didn't even know such a function existed. Upon looking that was exactly the issue.
To resolve, go to Settings> Do Not Disturb> Manual. If it is green, turn it off. You will now get phone calls and text alerts.
This functionality is also on your quick access utility menu (slide up menu). I assume this is how it was enabled on my phone.
I will post on other sites since I searched for weeks for this solution and didn't see it anywhere. Good luck!
