Odd/Limited Mouse Behavior

I have an intermittent problem with my mouse behavior in 10.6. Actually, I'm pretty sure I had the same problem in 10.5, it's just a fiendishly intermittent problem that has an as yet undetermined cause & solution. All I know is that it occasionally occurs and eventually resolves itself.
What happens is that I can still click things, scroll, right click to open a more extensive menu, etc., but certain ancillary (yet surprisingly critical) functionality stops working for a time.
For example, hovering my mouse over a link in Safari does not turn the pointer into a "hand with an extended index finger" or does not cause embedded pop up messages to appear (on sites I'm familiar with, no less, so I know they have them). On my Safari browser tabs, the 'x' to close individual tabs does not appear unless I first click on a tab once, and it closes when I click it a second time.
In menus - anywhere, not just in Safari - clicking on File or Edit or View opens the window, but selections do not highlight and track my mouse movements the way they normally do. This makes submenus impossible to use without clicking and holding once I reach the submenu I want to open, and releasing the click when I reach the option I want to select.
The Dock, which I have set to Show/Hide based on my mouse movements, will not pop up when I move my mouse all the way to the bottom of the screen. If I click my mouse once while the pointer is essentially invisible (being at the extreme bottom of the screen), the Dock will sometimes appear, but not always. When it does appear, the icons in the dock do not enlarge/magnify based on my lateral mouse movements the way they normally do.
In iTunes, when I'm watching a TV show or movie in full screen mode, the controller does not appear when I move my mouse the way it normally does.
And so on.
I have never found a working remedy for this affliction, I usually just have to ride it out, i.e., I deal with the limited functionality until something decides to work right again. I have reset my mouse (it's a wireless Logitech mouse with five buttons, including the scroll wheel, but I had a wired mouse way back in Leopard), I have restarted my Mac, reset Safari, reset my System Preferences, repaired Disk Permissions, I have even junked the entire Preferences folder and restarted. I have also switched to different mice, but they have the same problem while the problem is occurring.
I don't believe this is a settings issue, I think it has something to do with Java or something, which occasionally goes on a holiday.
If anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear them. I've been enduring the issue the last day and a half and this is the longest it's ever lasted without correcting itself.

Check for any dust in the LED hole. Try using a plain surface, like a solid colored mouse pad, if the surface is on the shiny side. If that does not work...
Try starting up from Mac OS X installation disc. If the mouse is also erratic when booted from another system, you can rule out the 10.5.3 update as the cause.
If it works normally when you are booted from the installation disc, there is probably some issue with your current installation.

Odd Mighty Mouse behavior?

Hi,
I have a brand new 24" imac with nvidia 8800 but my Wireless mighty mouse has started acting strange, jumping over the screen and making it impossible to use. I tried a wired mighty mouse and that's the same. I first noticed it after 10.3.5 upgrade but could it be a coincidence? I have done an archive and install back to 10.5.2 and it's still the same? It's not constant only intermittent.

Odd Calc Order Behavior

Hello all,
I've put together a hybrid analysis cube and I'm experiencing some odd calc order behavior. It appears the years are calculating backwards.
I load my 2007 end balances and calc forward three years. 2008 is correct, but 2009 and 2010 are incorrect. They are incorrect inasmuch as the calcs that require 2008/2009 end balances are incorrect. So I run the script again and now 2009 is right, but 2010 is incorrect. Then I run it once more and 2010 is correct.
It appears the end balances for 2008 and 2009 aren't available for 2009 and 2010, respectively. Thus, I think 2010 is calcing first, but with no 2009 end bals, so it's off. Then 2009 goes, again no end bals, so it's off. Then 2008 calcs, and since 2007 end bals are in there, it's calcing correctly. Thus, I have to calc again two times for 2009 and 2010 to be correct.
Here's my script:
Fix (@IRSiblings("2008"),"ScenarioMbr")
CALC ALL EXCEPT DIM("Years","Scenario");
Endfix
ScenarioMbr is a level 0 descendant of the Scenario dimension.
Thanks for any help anyone has.

I would suggest checking on your outline order. It sounds like your ending balance hasn't been calculated by the time the beginning balance needs it (as evidenced by your three passes). The order of members in your FIX statement has no bearing on the calculation order. By this, I mean make sure that your Years dimension is ordered as follows...
Years
+ 2007
+ 2008
+ 2009
+ 2010
Also, make sure that your periods (where your months are is, assuming it is a different dimension) is located above your Years dimension.
Lastly, how are you facilitating getting your Ending balances into your Beginning balances? Sometimes the sequencing for this type of work is improtant as well. For example, if your Ending Balance is a two-pass, it will not be ready until a second pass is done.
IF this doesn't help, maybe provide one of the BegBal members that isn't working, your outline order, the order of the Years dimension, and the dense/sparse settings (assuming BSO).
Good Luck!!

Odd Junk Mail Behavior

I've been experiencing odd Junk Mail behavior on my Mac; I've got the Mail app set so it puts the emails it thinks is Junk in the Junk folder. I do this because I've noticed that certain legitimate emails keep ending up in the Junk folder automatically.
I've also noticed that some of the emails in the Junk folder have not actually been flagged as Junk Mail, they were not colored brown by the Junk Mail rule and there is no button available to tell Mail it's not Junk. How do I stop Mail from flagging something as Junk when it doesn't seem to tag it as Junk but it still ends up in the Junk folder?
I see emails tagged as Junk in the Junk folder that are legit, so I click the "Not Junk" button and move them back to the proper mail folder. But the next time I get mail from the same source, it gets flagged and tagged as Junk again. I thought the Mail app learns from the training we give it. How do I resolve this situation?
I've already set the Junk filtering to not filter emails from recipients who are in my Address Book.

Either you’ve messed with the Preferences > Junk Mail > Advanced settings, or those settings have become corrupt, or you have one or more rules that have a bearing on this.
Assuming it isn’t the latter, try this:
1. Go to Preferences > Junk Mail, disable junk mail filtering, then enable it again. This resets the rule that governs what the junk filter does.
2. Choose either Training or Automatic mode (it doesn’t matter) and leave the other options checked. Click Advanced to see how the junk filter rule is defined now if you want, but don’t touch anything there.
3. Reset the junk filter database (Preferences > Junk Mail > Reset).

Sloppy Mouse Behavior in this OS

I've never been impressed with the mouse accuracy on Apple systems to begin with but it's gotten worse. I use a 40", Samsung, LED, LCD TV as a monitor for my Intel Mac Pro via an HDMI cable. This is a very expensive monitor. Ever since the past couple of OS updates to Leopard, I noticed the mouse behavior getting very erratic. Specifically I am referring to clicking to close tabs in the browser and nothing happens. Or in mail, I attempt to say highlight an email and it opens instead. Sometimes even multiple copies open. Highlighting and changing a file name is nearly impossible. The same goes for trying to drag or move files around in Finder.
This weekend I upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard with no improvement.
I've tried changing mice. I've got a Logitech VX Nano laser mouse. A logitech optical trackball. And a Microsoft laser mouse. All behave the same. They have the exact same problems with or without their driver packages installed.
What's up with this? Does Apple test anything? After the experiences I've had with my Airport Extreme Router and the firmware upgrades, the constant file permission errors after patches, I really have to wonder.

Sorry, but I get the impression that you have no clue what you're talking about when it comes to drivers and their submission to Microsoft:
http://dictionary.zdnet.com/definition/whql.html
Just for the record, I don't have any third party mouse drivers loaded in the OS. While I would agree that in order to get specialized functions on a mouse to work you may need a driver, but I would disagree that in order just get proper operation of the pointer and right and left click buttons that you should need a specialized driver just because it's from a different manufacturer, especially on wired devices.
This operating system is displaying the "i's" as "l's" in my RSS feeds on Safari. I guess that's someone else's problem too?

Irratic magic mouse behavior: Left handed user

Hello,
I have a magic mouse that I use on the left-hand side of my MacBook Pro and experience irratic mouse behavior and unexpected jumpiness - i.e. while working on a PowerPoint presentation, the screen jump to a different slide even when I'm not touching the mouse. The screen often jumps on its own even if I'm not typing or using the magic mouse. I've tried several fixes, including:
Setting up my preferences to Ignore trackpad when mouse is present
Setting up my preferences to Scrolling without intertia
Tryinf a couple of apps (Mountain Tweeks and MagicPrefs)
I'm wondering if my continued issues have to do with the fact that I'm using the mouse on the same side that I plug in my computer power cord and speakers.
I've search extensively for a solution to this issue and have been unable to solve it. Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi shelleyfromely,
The article below may be able to help you with this issue.
Click on the link below to see more details and screenshots.
I've quoted some helpful highlights for you:
Troubleshooting wireless mouse and keyboard issues
Make sure Bluetooth is turned on
If the "Show Bluetooth status in the menu bar" option is not enabled in the Bluetooth System Preferences, the Bluetooth icon will not display in the menu bar. Enable this option in System Preferences, then check the status of the Bluetooth icon in the upper right menu bar. If the Bluetooth icon does not appear in the menu bar, restart your computer.
Slide the On/Off switch on the bottom of your mouse to turn it on. Note: If the battery compartment cover is not installed properly the On/Off switch may not function correctly or may be difficult to operate. Remove the battery compartment cover and carefully reinstall it.
When your mouse is on and paired, and the batteries are charged, the indicator light glows steadily.
Check preferences
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences, then choose Bluetooth from the View menu. The Bluetooth preferences pane will list the Bluetooth devices paired with the computer, the status of the devices (paired or connected), and whether Bluetooth power is on or not.
Click the gear icon and choose "Connect" to connect a device that is powered on.
Keyboard or mouse intermittently stops responding
Click the mouse
Click the mouse once to reconnect it with your Mac. It may take a moment for the mouse to respond.
Check the battery level of the mouse. Choose System Preferences from the Apple (), then choose Mousefrom the View menu. The battery level indicator is in the lower-left corner. Replace the batteries if they are low.
Check for signal interference
Wireless networks that operate on 2.4GHz may cause interference.
Move cordless phone base stations, microwave ovens, and other 2.4GHz electrical devices away from the Mac if you suspect interference.
Keep wireless devices within 10 meters (33 feet) of the Mac.
Avoid putting metal objects between the device and the Mac.
Mouse does not track as expected (jittery, jumpy, slow, fast).
The Apple Wireless Mouse can be used on most smooth surfaces, however if tracking issues occur try these options:
Choose System Preferences from the Apple () menu, then choose Mouse from the View menu. Set the Tracking slider to adjust how fast the pointer moves as you move the mouse.
Try using a different surface to see if the tracking improves.
Turn the mouse over and inspect the sensor window. Use compressed air to gently clean the sensor window if dust or debris is present.
If multiple Bluetooth wireless devices are in use nearby, try turning them off one at a time to see if the issue improves. Bandwidth intensive devices could affect tracking.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

Why is mouse behavior so horrible in osx mavericks?

After "upgrading" to Mavericks, mouse behavior has become erratic regardless of what non-Apple mouse I use, wired or wireless (Logitech & MS).
Behavioral issues encountered are:
- Dragging and Dropping any items in any application including the Finder and Desktop is like playing russian roulette with a 9mm pistol. With the mouse button down, a release is registered and half a second later, another click is registered.
- Clicks not being registered (mostly when trying to close Safari tabs)
- Double clicking automatically happens about 50% of the time when only single clicks are inteneded.
With all mouse drivers updated (for every brand and model of mouse I've attempted to use), the same erratic behavior is randomly encounterd. I have already reset SMC and PRAM to no avail.
Are there some new settings I'm not aware of? Or should I just go out and purchase an Apple mouse?
Thanks for any advice/help on figuring this out.

Thank you William. I normally don't use the mfg's drivers as the OS native driver has always worked fine (minus the acceleration curve). But, due to the issues i'm experiencing now, am trying the mfg osx mavericks drivers and they aren't helping much.
Thank you!

Mouse behavior problem!

When i create two small cube within a big cube, now i want to pick any one of the two small cube, then translate, scal, rotate the small cube.
I already read the book Java 3D Programming, and there had a example mouseNavigateTest. for that example just operate one small cube within a big cube, but when you create another one and then you using mouse behavior, the result was the two cube will be operare together.
i know the above example mouseNavigateTest, it using mouse behavior to operare the transformGroup object. can i operare others to control different cube in the big one?
thaks for any help!

Bear with me while I tell you the symptoms I had, and then see below for the latest update.
I have a mac mini running Leopard with all the latest automatic updates. I have iWork '09. I use a Logitech wireless mouse with a USB transceiver.
Until the last 7 - 10 days, to select a complete row or column, all I needed to do was left-click on the number or letter.
To do the same thing now, I have to RIGHT-click the row number (this shows the drop down menu) left-click (to remove the drop-down menu) and then left-click again to select the complete row. After the first right-click, it does not seem to matter where in the spreadsheet I left-click, the row selected will be that of the original right-click.
Until I have accessed Numbers, the mouse behaves normally, but once I have loaded Numbers, the hover function does not work anywhere on the screen. Even the dock no longer enlarges icons as I pass over them.
UPDATE: This morning the system downloaded updates, and as usual I clicked Install and Restart. After restarting, ALL the hover functions ceased to work.
I discovered that if I unplug the USB transceiver and then reconnect it, full mouse utility returns, including the hover function.
It seems that somewhere in the startup routines, the mouse bluetooth logic is getting overwritten or corrupted, but can be restored by reinitializing the bluetooth device.
Interesting....

Change mouse behavior....Turn off slowing motion

HI there folks. Well I got my MAC reinstalled here and one thing I forgot to ask before was how to turn off this certain mouse behavior. When I move slowly with my mouse, the mouse doesn't move the same distance as it does when I'm moving fast. This is kind of hard to describe. If I move it slow it gets VERY slow and precise. Is there a way to just make it "normal"? Thanks for the help!

ridergroov,
Tough night last night.
I guess it's a Mac thing
Not sure what you mean by that. My mouse moves the same on my unused PC's. Slow movement = short distance, Faster movement = greater distance on the screen.
I've used Universal Access and the Mouse Pref's to slow down my mouse to work on very detailed CAD drawings and Photoshop photos to get placement of details just right. There are other programs out there that would speed up a mouse movement several times faster.

How to limited mouse event in JPanel?

I have a Jpanel with implements mouseListenert(mouseExited), how to limited the mouse event?
this how to work:
1. when my mouse exit ( move out) the jpanel, jpanel will disapprear and it's work
2. in jpanel i add Jtextfield ( jpanel.add(Jtextfield) ). This is the problem, when my mouse over the jtextfield ( where jtextfield is in the jpanel ) my jpanel disapprear. It mean that when my mouse over jtextfield, my mouse exit from jpanel too.
So how to limited mouse listener or what must i do?

i don't know how to do that can you modify this sample code, that the child component do nothing when my mouse over it
JTextField tf = new JTextField();
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
panel.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e) {
panel.setInvisible(false);
panel.add(tf);thx..

Odd GUI mouse pointer behavior

I have noticed since Lion came out the ability to resize from any window edge has seemed to have brought with it a minor annoyance. The mouse pointer form persists as an up-pointing arrow after the pointer leaves the bottom edge of an application if it is brought down to butt with the dock. Ought it not return to the "main" form of the familiar heftier-looking black arrow pointing to an approximate 11 o'clock direction?
Also, along the same lines I have noticed that if Stacks list-style menus overlap hyperlinks in Safari and you hover your mouse pointer over those areas of overlapping the pointer turns into the hand-with-an-index-finger-pointing type of pointer form. The clicking behavior remains true as one would expect and clicks the item in the Stack menu while leaving the stuff underneath alone.
Does anyone else get any of this strange behavior? I am putting it in Mountain Lion because it is also in 10.8 as it was in 10.7 Lion. It was not in 10.6 Snow Leopard and I am somewhat convinced that the "any edge resizing" feature is responsible for bringing this about.

I had to reinstall Mountain Lion and I am having the same mouse problem in Safari with a hand appearing at certain times. I never had that problem in prior iterations of OS X nor in Mountain Lion until I had to reinstall it. The hand it too large to figure out where it is when I want to insert something in text. I suppose it's the pointing index finger, but I want my arrow pointer back!

Vista: 1.3 Downloader Doesn't See Sony a700 .ARW's; Odd Mouse Behavior

On my Vista system,the LR 1.3 downloader (now "Adobe Photodownloader 3.0 Component") doesn't see Sony a700 .ARW's when I choose Camera Or Card Reader as the source. I don't know about a100 .ARW's. The downloader for 1.2 didn't recognize either. I can still import them in place once I have them downloaded using the Vista Photo Gallery.
A new problem is that when I scroll through a group of images using the mouse scroll wheel the library loupe preview updates as before but the thumbnail doesn't shift until the histogram appears. The left and right arrows work properly.
The device manager shows the mouse (a Gateway branded optical mouse) as a "HID-compliant mouse". No updates to the mouse appear to be available.

If I use the "Choose Files" and "Copy To A New Location" options I can import directly into LR. I prefer to just keep using the Photo Gallery downloader and then import in place until the LR downloader is fully compatible. The annoyance for me is that there is now a lag in changing the active photo on the film strip in Library Loupe view when using the scroll wheel.

Odd Wireless Mighty Mouse behavior with new Mac Pro?

Hi,
I have a brand new Mac pro and Wireless Apple Mighty Mouse & Keyboard.
The mouse however is not operating properly, it is jerky and slow to respond on a intermittent regular basis. I can move the cursor around the screen but it will stutter and jerk slowly then pick up ok?
I had the mouse and keyboard with my iMac and it worked fine. I have run all updates and re-installed but to no avail. The keyboard is fine.
I suspect it's a hardware issue with my new mac Pro but i'd love it if someone has any other possible causes.
Thanks.

Hi, there's a quite a few people with similar problems, including myself.
My keyboard likes to drop it's connection for no apparent reason, which in turn likes to mess up my mouse and cause it to stutter for a while. Pairing up new devices can do this too, I've found.
It's been thought that some Mac Pro's came with their WiFi and BT wires incorrectly fitted, if you have a search you should find a link to the tutorial if you want to try switching them around.
That said, it didn't make any difference to my BT keyboard and wireless Mighty Mouse, so I switched them back.
I've been hoping for a software fix, but no joy so far, glad I got a three year warranty as standard.

Odd file move behavior

On my startup disk, I have a movie file (.mov) and a folder I want to collect movies in. Straightforward enough.
So I click/drag the .mov file onto the folder. It shows me the green + icon, and when I let go, it COPIES the file into the folder, not by simply MOVING the file from the disktop to the folder. Wha?
When I grab that same file in the folder and move it to the disktop, it works as expected, insisting that it must be DUPLICATED, replacing the disktop, original file.
OK. So instead of doing that, I decide to trash the original file, then move the version out of the folder and back to the disktop.
In order to do that, I use the contextual menu that drops down with Control+mouse click. It now asks me for my administrator password to do the trash move. (???)
Once the original has been tossed, the file will now move from folder to disktop and back to folder with complete impunity. But if I try this with another .mov file, the process starts all over again.
No extra key combo during the original move gets rid of the + icon.
Permissions were repaired. No change.
Log off was cycled, no change.
Obviously somehow this disk has picked up wierdness when Leopard replaced well-tempered Tiger on it, but where is the checkbox that dumps this odd behavior?
No Right-click on the mighty mouse will bring down the contextual menu at all.

Yea! The Mac is back on track!
It took extra innings and a visit to 1 800 APL CARE to get to the bottom of it, but this therapy should be on everyone's A-list: The Install disk's version of Disk Utility is significantly different from any version you can install on your hard drives. Or so it would appear.
Where the Disk Utility can be there for you on two different hard drives connected to the same computer, running it from different drives is not at all the same - in visible results - as running it directly from the OS X Install Disk.
You can have several disks with OS X on them and run Disk Utility on your main startup disk from those, but they won't find all the messy permissions that are gumming up your system.
It took yet another previous back up Restore cycle, an extra clean install, followed immediately by an Install Disk run of Disk Utility's First Aid/Repair Disk Permissions to clear the cobwebs. Frequent re-weedings (after any program installs or upgrades from anybody, including Apple's own) finds more things to fix. Not always, but frequently.
The Install Disk's Disk Utility--it's not just for breakfast any more.

Nexus 5000 - Odd Ethernet interface behavior (link down inactive)

Hi Guys,
This would sound really trivial but it is very odd behavior.
- We have a server connected to a 2, Nexus 5000s (for resiliancy)
- When there is no config on the ethernet interfaces whatsoever, the ethernet interface is UP / UP, there is minimal amount of traffic on the link etc. E.g.

- This behavior is seen on both 5Ks
- I've tried using a different set of ports, changed SFPs, and fibre cabling to no avail
- I can't seem to understand this behavior?! In that, why would configuring the port cause the link to go down?
- If anyone has experience this before, or could shed some light on this behavior, it would be appreciated.

I had identical issue
Two interfaces on two different FEXes were INACTIVE. I have two Nexus 5596 in vPC and A/A FEXes.
I also use config-sync feature.
Very same configuration was applied to other ports on other FEXes and they were working with no problems.
interface Ethernet119/1/1
inherit port-profile PP-Exchange2003
I checked VLAN status associated with this profile and it was active (of course it was, other ports were ok).
I solved it by removing port profile from this port and re-applied it... voila, port changed state to up!
Very very strange.
