No "busy" cursor in FF 3.5

Performed a system upgrade today and restarted, as I was instructed. Started FF (Shiretoko) and it is dead slow moving from page to page, and there is no "busy" cursor. I'm running 64-bit Arch. What other information might someone need to offer fixes?
Tim

anybody able to help?
i see lots of simular threads but i have tried most of what is being offered, and i'm not sure if 32bit solutions are the same as 64bit solutions.

Problem with busy cursor

IHey there,
i have a popping up window in my Flex app. This window needs a little time to get created. In this time I want to set the Cursor to busy. But instead of the busy cursor Flex displays no cursor, also the arrow cursor disappears.
I tried the hack with callLater but it doesn't help. Had anyone a similar problem and knows how to fix it?
By the way: What is the best way to set the busy cursor? Static, with the parentApplication.cursoManager property or in the component with this.cursoManager? All of these ways have the same result on my problem: no cursor!
click on a item (own component, extended Canvas, buttonMode = true)
call function by MouseListener
function {
    this.cursorManager.setBusyCursor();
    this.callLater(doPopUpWork);
callLater function
doPopUpWork() {
    // DO WORK AND ADD POPUP
    this.cursorManager.removeBusyCursor;
I checked the right timing with trace statements [ trace("setBusy") ... ] and the also cursor comes Back when work is done and popup was added. All right and in right time. But the cursor disappears in that time instead of showing the busy cursor.
Can anybody help me???

I see there are problems with reading the code, try again:
click on a item (own component, extended Canvas, buttonMode = true)
call function by MouseListener
function {
    this.cursorManager.setBusyCursor();
    this.callLater(doPopUpWork);
callLater function
doPopUpWork {
    // DO WORK AND ADD POPUP
    this.cursoManager.removeBusyCursor();

Busy Image to go along with Busy Cursor

Hello,
I am looking for the best way to show a busy image to go along with the Busy Cursor in a title window inside of my flex app. I originally thought I could just embed a GIF image and it would animate just like a regular GIF does, but this doesnt happen without using some other 3rd party actionscript. I know there are animations that can do this, but I am unfamilar with how these exactly work and if I have to start with an original image to animate. I also dont know much about making a .fla file either then export it to a .swf. Just looking for a direction to focus on since there seems to be multiple ways to accomplish this. It just needs to be a circle that fades a section out as it rotates. Thank you for taking the time to read my post. Please let me know if you are confused or need any further information.
Thanks again!
James

Greeting!
I have a similar model "L455-S5008". Motherboard # "K000093580".
I have a post about it on the video section. Please look at the pic I uploaded & tell me what it is.
My client's system does the same thing except it has no cursor just a black screen & all power to the laptop board. Along with dvd/rw, wireless,HDD & power indicators illuminated. It just powers on & off own its own with no response when I press the esc or F10 buttons like some models do & cause it to stay running. This is a pic of the small chip.

Change busy cursor

Hi guys,
I am trying to change app's busy cursor, but haven't been successful yet. I have create a .swf file that work fine. Next I tired the following code in my application init fuction
var style:CSSStyleDeclaration = StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration("CursorManager");
if (!style) {
style = new CSSStyleDeclaration();
style.setStyle( "busyCursor", myBusyCursor );
StyleManager.setStyleDeclaration("CursorManager", style, false);
but this does not do anything. I am using showbusycursor="true" on all my RPC calls, and some depending on the query could take a sec longer. I just want to override the animated clock with my .swf through out the app.
Any pointer? I have spend about a day and half but no luck. I understand that CursorManager.setBusyCursor() will actually show the cursor, which is not what I want since I don't make a call to show busy cursor explicitly
Thank you
Jay

Hi,
Just override the default cursor after you call your process, then on complete clear the cursor.
The following example will set the cursor to a custom cursor, note that by setting the custom cursor the busy cursor will be over riden (in this particular case even if you try to set the busy cursor after the custom cursor).

Busy cursor on Web

We are currently moving our application to the Web and find that the Busy cursor style remains an arrow - how can we change this?

Flex har
UI:
This was not AIR, it is Flex 3.
The WMODE is normal.
However I have solved my problem.
Originally I wanted to completely replace any active cursor with the busy cursor. The problem (to review) was that the orignal cursor would not go away, and would appear on top of the busy cursor, and then when moving the mouse, the busy cursor would trail after the original cursor, and the two cursors would kind of join up again. So it was really annoying.
I did find the following which sort of solved the problem:
Mouse.hide;
this.mouseChildren=false;
CursorManager.setBusyCursor();
With the above, the original cursor would go away and stay gone, *once the mouse was moved*, leaving only the busy cursor. Why it was necessary to move the mouse, I have no idea. So this as well did not completely solve the problem (but came much closer).
Here was my final solution:
First of all, I had not noticed previously that the standard busy cursor in the browser keeps the original pointer, and just offsets an hourglass to the right of that pointer by a fixed distance. Don't know why I had not notice that before. So all I had to do was
csr_busy = CursorManager.setCursor( StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration("CursorManager").getStyle("busyCursor"),1,20,0);
at one place, and then to remove it later,
CursorManager.removeCursor(csr_busy);
That's it. the '20' parameter just keeps the busy cursor (an animated clock) 20 pixels to the right of the original cursor (whatever it happens to be at the time - a pointer, a hand, etc.), which from my experience is impossible to completely remove anyway, so I don't try. But it looks good as I have it now, and contrary to what I originally thought is consistent with the Browser's own busy cursor.

Hiding busy cursor during polling

Greetings,
I have a small flex/flash application which retieves an update every 1000 ms/ 1 second. The flash code has a timer which upon expiry calls an Adapter method and displays the result to the screen.
The sequence of events is:
1. In the window a timer is started for 1000 ms.
2. Upon expiry of the timer an adapter method is called to get the time string
3. The adapter method returns the time stamp which is displayed to the window
4. The timer is restarted
I have tried including the method call, CursorManager.removeBusyCursor()
But the busy cursor still appears when the adapter method is called and receiving a response.
Do I have to remove the busy cursor entirely for this to work? If so, how is that done?
I have found the command: CursorManager.RemoveCursor()
But what is the cursor ID for the busy cursor?
Do I call it AFTER I call the adapter method?
Many thanks,

The timer expiry is calling a flex method. The flex method is calling the Adapter method, a Java method.
Code snippet:
   private function startTimer():void {
    refreshTimer = new Timer(refreshInterval);
    refreshTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,getTimeString);
    refreshTimer.start();
   private function getTimeString(event:TimerEvent):void {
    CursorManager.removeBusyCursor();
    var call:Object = RemoteSrv.getTimeString();
    call.marker = 'time';
    stopTimer();

After recovery from backup Creative Cloud Desktop shows spinning blue busy cursor

After a sysem mis-adventure I had to do a complete reinstallation of the OS (10.9 Mavericks) on my Mac Pro. Now when I open Creative Cloud Desktop I get the window with HOME active and the other selections such as Apps, Files, Fonts etc grayed out. In the middle of the window is a spinning blue busy cursor.
Clearly something needs to be reauthorized but I don't know what that is or how to do it.
Help?

CS6 spinning "busy" cursor while saving in background.

On Mountain Lion and Mavericks GM, Photoshop CS6 displays (flickers) the spinning "busy" cursor while either auto-saving or saving in the background. The cursor is the Adobe black dot variety, not the OSX beach ball. It flickers rapidly between the spinning balls and the currently used Photoshop cursor, for the duration of a save or auto-save. For a multi gigabyte file, this can mean a several minutes of flickering.
I can work while saving, but obviously with a flickering cursor, it's difficult. Interestingly, the flickering only starts after the second save after restarting Photoshop; i.e. I start Photoshop, open a file, save, and it's fine. Then I continue working and save again, or auto-save, and the spinning/flickering starts while saving. It won't go away unles I restart Photoshop again, and comes back on the second save of the next session.
Machine is a Mac Pro 2 x 2.93 6-Core with 32GB RAM and running an Nvidia Quadro 4000. Scratch disk is a dedicated internal 120gb SSD.
Performance settings for CS6 were tweaked multiple times to no avail. Fonts caches removed. Permissions repaired. PRAM reset. Basically all the standard troubleshooting methods were attempted.
On Snow Leopard, I have zero issues with this. On upgrading to Mountain Lion last year, the cursor began flickering, so I reverted to Snow Leopard. This year, I installed Mavericks GM in the hopes it would be remedied, but the flickering returned. I have reverted again to Snow Leopard and everything is back to normal.
The only thing I can try at this point is a clean install of ML or Mavericks, instead of the upgrade I've been doing. This would be a considerable hassle, so I am asking here first if there's anything I can do before trying that.
Thanks.
Rob

Hi Rob,
I just discovered your message after many research on the internet. I'm actually experiencing the same issue, this "busy"cursor while autosaving.
Like you, I used to have no problem at all on Snow Leopard.
My machine is a Macpro 2,8Ghz Quad core with 16GB Ram.
Could you find a solution to your problem?
Thank you

Disable object, during busy cursor showing

Hi guys,
I've a complex text field which I can embed types of font within it. When I try to choose a specific font through the Dropdownlist, I'll show the busy cursor till font embeds inside the text field completely.
I want to disable my text field based on showing busy cursor... I mean when the busy cursor is showing disable the text filed and after disappearing that, just enabled text field again.
How can I do that?
Is there any specific listener for that or what?
Thanks in advance

No busy cursor when open document

Hi,
I have 32-bit Arch with Gnome. When I launch an app, say OpenOffice, from the menu, the cursor will turn into a busy one (indicating something working in the background). That's fine. However, when I click on a .doc file. The cursor stays the same (just the arrow) and openoffice pop up after awhile. This is very annoying because it causes me to open serveral instances of the app and slow down my computer because I don't know if it will open or not. Please help me fix this. Thanks

I don't think there's any way to "fix" it. OO can ask for a "busy" cursor to be displayed within its own window, but how can it have a cursor with no window? Another word processor might start up faster though. Or perhaps you could refrain from frantically clicking on the file while you wait.

How would I get visible busy cursor while calling ImageSnapshot.captureImage?

Hi,
I'm not sure if I understand correctly, but below is my very simple MXML file, where I try to show busy cursor before calling ImageSnapshot.captureImage. But instead my cursor dissapears atl all and then reappears after call is complete. Is it known functionality or should I use some callLater() call? Any help would be appreciated.

I'm experiencing the same problem. ¿Did you solve it?
It happens as if it were no background image defined for the bussy cursor.
But I have seen that such image is defined in default.css inside framework.swc, so it should work...

Trying to put a busy Cursor but ...confused why its not showing up

Hi
I have a Application and within it there are few HBox, List, VBOX , Canvas ......blah.. But one Vbox(vbox1) has a List(list1)
From List on itemClick I have a requirement of opening up a tree node by doing a lazy loading of the tree
And during this processing happens I wanted to show a busy cursor to let the user know that on item click the application is trying to load a tree and then open a particular node
Did the folllowing
CursorManager.setBusyCursor();
and
CursorManager.removeBusyCursor();
Also
var cusrorId:Number = CursorManager.setCursor(StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration("CursorManager").getStyle("busyC ursor"),CursorManagerPriority.HIGH)
and
CursorManager.removeCursor(cursorId)
Also
list1.cursorManager.setBusyCursor();
vbox1.cursorManager.setBusyCursor();
and
list1.cursorManager.removeBusyCursor();
vbox1.cursorManager.removeBusyCursor();
But after all this I didn't see any Busy Cursor
Busy Cursor is shown for few minutes if I put a Timer in between i.e after the ItemClick and before I trigger the processing of lazy loading of the tree
Guys any guesses
How can I make it work ? M I doing something wrong ? Please help
Regards

Is there a way to show busy cursor in indesign during long processing?

30EA2 No Busy Cursor

When long running SQL Query (or DDL) is running SQL Developer does not show a busy cursor (Win XP)

Hi,
If you run SQL Query, there should be a dancing icon on the tab and also a progress bar bouncing left to right as well.
By the means SQL Query here is SELECT statement.
If you are talking about DML (Insert, Update, Delete) and DDL one (truncate, drop, create index, etc), then the answer is no, there isn't. It hasn't been here starting version 2.1.
It had been discussed on the following thread and one of the developer promised to follow up the issue.
30EA2->2.1.*: Task Progress indication
You may want to add something on the thread which hopefully gets enough attention, faster implementation and probably a better functionality.
For the time being, to monitor the progress, use View - Task Progress, there you can see the busy indicator for DML and DDL statement.

Buntoro

Busy Cursor for ListBox

Hi,
I want to show busy cursor while loading data in list box. Is it possible to show busy cursor for list box or any other way to show busy cursor while loading data in list box.
Regards,
Jayagopal.

you could use the static methods in the CursorManager class to show and remove the busy cursor on roll over and roll out events in the List
CursorManager.setBusyCursor();
CursorManager.removeBusyCursor();
