My screen moves....WHY?

When I use my mouse or pen, my screen moves side to side or up and down following the mouse. It will HELP! How do I make it stop?

Welcome to the Forums!
Go to System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing tab and turn off Zoom. If it's already off, toggle it on then off again. (It most likely got activated by an inadvertent press of the command-option-8 keys or by holding the ctrl key during mouse scrolling.)
Hope this helps...

    The entire screen moves when the mouse move in any direction. Do any one have a idea of the problem and a solution for it.

    Turn off Zoom from the Universal Access and Keyboard & Mouse panes of System Preferences.

  • Full Screen Movies

    Hi;
    I have the following code in Python to display my movies:
    <object classid='clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000' width='%s' height='%s' id='Maya2012Main' name='Maya2012Main'>
    <param name='movie' value='Maya2012Main.swf'>
    <param name='allowfullscreen' value='true'>
    <param name='allowscriptaccess' value='always'>
    <param name="FlashVars" value="pg_name=%s" />
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
    <embed id='Maya2012Main'
            name='Maya2012Main'
            src='Maya2012Main.swf'
            width='%s'
            height='%s'
            FlashVars="pg_name=%s"
            pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
            type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
            allowscriptaccess='always'
            allowfullscreen='true'
    />
    </object>''' % (str(int(round(wn*1008))), str(int(round(wn*548))), page, str(int(round(wn*1008))), str(int(round(wn*548))), page)
    I test the requesting browser for the screen width, but this is not optimal. Isn't there a simple way to make width=100%?
    TIA,
    Beno

    Mmm.. Interesting... because I am using Firefox 2.0.0.4. I am
    also using Firefox 2.0.0.6 on my laptop like you are, and it seems
    to work fine. I guess it don't understand the technical details of
    why full screen will not work on Firefox. What I find interesting
    is that some of my full screen movies do work fine on 2.0.04. I
    wonder if it the Flash Version in which the full screen is
    published? I will try some further testing.
    I am concerned because there are likely many users of earlier
    Firefox versions, and I need to produce a full screen which will
    work no matter which Firefox Version you use.
    Thanks!

    Is your problem that the browser window refuses to display at
    full screen or is the Flash movie itself not showing at it's proper
    size? Knowing that would at least help us know where to look.

  • Is there a way to lock the screen?  Why did it copy all my iphone apps?

    I really would like to lock the screen so it doesn't change position if I move it a little bit. Anybody know if this is possible?
    Why the heck did it copy all of my Iphone apps onto itself even though I told it not too? Not too happy about that...
    Otherwise I think it is absolutely amazing. The touch screen is very responsive. In fact, I think it is perfect.

    There's a little switch above the volume buttons on the right side. Flip it and try turning the screen.

    Not sure since we're not sure the processes you took to sync it. When its plugged into your computer and you are viewing it in iTunes you can go into the "Applications" tab and select which apps you want and don't want. On the main info page there is a checkbox that says sync apps automatically".
    Cheers.

  • Screen moves suddenly when I move object

    I am on a 2009 Mac Pro w/ 2 hard drives and updated graphics card, OS 10.9.3, with Apple keyboard and Apple mouse. Dell monitor, two years old. I am using Adobe Creative Cloud subscription.
    Why does my screen move horizontally and vertically, while it zooms out, when I am moving objects in Illustrator.
    I thought it might be mouse or keyboard settings, but I have changed the settings several times and tried other mice, as well as changed Illustrator prefs many times.
    Any and all suggestions are welcome.
    Thanks.

    Have you checked Universal Access setting in the OS preferences? It sounds like something that would be triggered there.

  • Full Screen movies do not work in Firefox

    Hi All,
    I am having a problem publishing Flash 8 movies full screen.
    They are fine in Internet Explorer. But Firefox crops the full
    screen so that you only see a portion of the full screen movie.
    I am using Firefox 2.0.0.4, as well as version 2.0.0.6 on my
    laptop. Can't get full screen to work in Firefox most of the time,
    but occasionally it seems to work. Is this a Firefox problem, or
    Captivate problem?
    An example, look at the full screen movie:

  • Ios 7.4  nightmares. When idle and charging my screens move on their own, types jibberish on its own and sends the jibberish as a text message to random callers, changes sounds on its own.  And that's not all!!!

    The ios7.04 download for my iphone 4s has tuned the phone into a nightmare. Battery charging time is 3x what it used to be, battery drains after 4 hours whether I talking or phone is idle. I can no longer hear the phone when it rings. Here is the dealbreaker:When idle, untouched and charging the screens move on their own, type jibberish on their own and send the jibberish via text to a random selection of my contacts. The phone is charging now and I am watching the screen move to the alarm stopwatch screen. It  From there is has moved to the Sounds screen and has changed my ring tone twice. (It plays the tones as well.). My hands are not on the phone at the time and the homescreen is visible when charging begins. I have turned off so many components of the phone that there is simply no longer any reason to walk around with what has become a functionless burden. The most obvious solution is to say goodbye to Apple and go back to the brand I was using before. Thought I's give this forum one last shot. For the life of me I can not understand why so many of us have so many complaints about our devices yet no one takes the path of least resistance...which is to simply switch to a brand that is reliable. I never had any problems with a cell phone until I switched to Apple.

    Thank you. I called my carrier and told them that the i704 os made my phone unusable and that the support in the forums is populated by children like yourself who make nasty comments and provide no support, I was released from my contract. Free at last from rotten Apple and shmucks like you.

  • Screen  moves all over the place

    Out of no where my screen now moves all over the place. The width has become shorter and the height as become much larger. I have a magic mouse when I move it to the left the screen moves to the right and verse a versa. I have a early 2008 macpro 3.1, 6gb memory, 2.8 ghz and nvidia geforce 8800 gt 512mb. Does anyone have any idea of why this is happening, please help.
    Much Appreciated
    Thank You

    You have probably accidentally turned on Zoom, a feature in Universal Access. I did this to myself yesterday.
    The usual solution is to enter
    System Preferences > Universal Access ... pane and shut it off. But I found mine was not enabled, so I could not just turn it off.
    I had to enable it, use the keyboard shortcuts to zoom in and then all the way out, then shut it off. That cured it.

  • No sound when watching full-screen movies or TV shows in iTunes after update to 11.1

    After updating to iTunes 11.1, any full-screen movies or TV shows I try to play on my Thunderbolt display with my MacBook Pro have no audio. If I plug in speakers or headphones, I get audio, just not from the Thunderbolt display. Audio works fine from MBP.
    Weird thing is, if I plug in other speakers or headphones and then *unplug* them, the Thunderbolt display's speakers start working again. Every time you start a new show or movie, though, you have to do this again after the full-screen video opens on the display.
    Really weird. I obviously suspect i has something to do with the 11.1 update to iTunes 'cause audio works just fine through the display for iTunes music and other content and for the web and all other apps and games, whether they're in full-screen mode or not.
    Keep checking Software Update hoping to see that "1" badge pop up on the App Store, lol.
    Anyone else experienced this?

    Thanks allen222! I've been banging my head against this issue as well - glad to hear it's fixed in Mavericks - was planning to upgrade shortly.

  • Is there a way to make the quality of quicktime player better. when I take a screen movie of a demonstration video the quality when exporting to final cut is poor???

    is there a way usinig quick time player when recording a screen movie of product demonstration better quiality?

    FCE works in standardized broadcast frame sizes and frame rates. If your screen recording is not exactly the same pixel dimensions and frame rate as the sequence you are editing in, FCE will try to force it to fit, and that forcing may distort and reduce the apparent quality of your recording.
    Have you tried to render your clips on the sequence?
    Most people that are creating tutorials, etc. use dedicated software. If you have to do this a lot, then you might want to consider software such as ScreenFlow, which consolidates screen recording, editing/manipulating of the screen recording, and re-compression of your project for delivery in one application.

  • Using Apple TV/Airplay for a full screen movie and opening new window on laptop

    When I have a full screen movie playing on my TV in AirPlay dual screen mode, and I open a new Safari window or my Mail, the window appears seemingly by default on top of the movie rather than coming up on my laptop monitor.  Is there a spot I can reset the default for new Safari windows and Mail windows to my laptop monitor, so they don't interrupt the movie on my TV?
    Background: my girls love Downton Abbey and Call the Midwife which I find terribly boring, and need to find something to do while the movies are playing rather than fall asleep! And you know what happens if Safari shows up over top of their beloved Downton! 

    it being mirror and many tv's being widescreen 16:9 and the screen of ios device not being widescreen this happen

  • Ipad mini (retina) goes wild ! can't type, lot of screen movement

    My screen seems to be to responsive, even when set on table the screen moves like crazy seems as if even moving a hand over the screen sets it off.
    if i try to type a message it'll give a lot of wrong characters. Turning wifi, bluetooth and so off doesn't fix it.
    should I erase it completely and if doing so be able to restore the ios (7.1)

    The screens are exactly the same. I have a Tech Armor HD Screen Protector on my iPad Mini and absolutely love it. You wouldn't even know it was on there if I didn't tell you.
