Screen or mouse issues

Not sure how to even describe this issue. It happens when I am working mostly in Excel but does happen on web browsers and other programs as well.
Excel: Working in excel - go to type in something and then the screen turns a really light blue and then looks like it is being sucked in. The only way to get out of this is to click the mouse. I have changed batteries in the blue tooth mouse. Keyboard is wired.
Any ideas?
Thanks

This may be an MS Office issue and you may want to repost in the Office for Mac Product Forums

Dim Screen, freezing, mouse issues

My macbook just started doing all of this today, with no prior warning. First, the mouse would stop working for no reason. i would unplug it and plug it back in, and it would work for anywhere from 2 to 10 minutes, then just quit again. a few hours later, my computer froze. I restarted it and it promptly froze again 5 minutes later. I swap out the RAM and run an apple hardware test, neither showing that anything is amiss. the last problem to arize was that the screen would dim until you ALMOST couldnt see anything. in the right light, you can still make out whats on the screen. What is the world is going on? normally i am pretty good at diagnosing computer problems, but the symptoms for this issue are all over the place. has anyone had any similar experiences? what is the problem?

This sounds like a hardware issue to me. You should be able to prove it shough by booting up with the install DVD and operating it for a period of time. Run the Apple hardware Test. Not that it can necessarily find your problem because it cannot find all hardware problems. But it is a way you can run the computer for a period of time and see what it does, WITHOUT the computer running on your normal software, i.e. your hard drives OS.
You could also run the Disk Utility app after booting with the Installation DVD, for the same reasons above. It will eliminate the hard drives OS install as a possible culprit of your problem.

Mouse issues at Hard Drive selection screen in Boot Camp

Hello,
I have been searching for awhile and cannot find any information regarding this. I have a Razer Deathadder 3500 series mouse and when I go into the Boot Camp HD selection screen my mouse movements are inverted. Up is down and down is up. I am not sure why this is or how to fix it. Does anyone know?
Thanks,
Brad

Hi all,
in another thread a user had problems with a non-Razer mouse and the selection screen.
Problem, of any, is that at the time of the selection screen, no additional mouse driver is loaded yet, but rather a seemingly 'unified' one.
While maybe a SMC reset might be helpful, I suggested to simply use the cursor-keys for selection and then the Enter key.
At least that works for me.
Happy computing
Stefan

Annoying mouse issues of cs6 and cs5.5 on mountain lion

Hi everyone,
a couple month ago, a mac pro bought, which has mountain lion. i installed cs5.5 and for a while i have started to fight with mouse issues. illustrator, indesing and photoshop, all of them has mouse lag. photoshop has also freezing when i use stamp tool, and zooming in addition. if the screen moves (when i zoom or move the work to any direction of the window or use the tool which makes the screen move), it freeze and mouse pointer starts to spininnig. sometimes it comes back for a while, sometimes not. and then noticed that, forexample zooming or stamping, if i move mouse over the window, it completes the new view and everything is back normal.
but i can't use stamp tool as normal. it can't work fast and freezes mostly. the mouse lag occurs randomly; not only photoshop, but also indesign and illustrator. i looked at the consol messages and found this:
1/23/13 2:41:55.108 PM WindowServer[203]: _CGXGetWindowOrderingGroup: Operation on a window 0x69 requiring rights 0x5 by caller Photoshop
i googled it and can't found anything. when it freezes on photoshop, consol writes this message. screen never freezes indesign and illustrator. so, there is no messages. only mouse lag occurs on them.
i try to use different combination on photoshop's graphics processor settings. but it doesn't work. now i use photoshop by making the graphic processor off.
after that i installed cs6. but for a while, i met the same problems. i reset the photoshop, erased the preferences files. but it didn't work. after disabling graphic processor, i haven't met the freezing, but mouse issues continue in photoshop, illustrator and indesign.
if you need more info, just ask me.
thank you all.

hi,
thanks for your answer. i don't know if it's a driver problem, or not. computer came with wireless apple magic mouse. today, i tried the old mac mouse (the ones without wheel). the same result.
if it worked, i wouldn't use this solution. because i do not have to use old mouse. we have met those problems in windows. i NEVER change any hardware for the problems in mac osx. i LOVE apple and its products, but if it worked, there is no different windows.
so, i don't know where is the problem, either in macosx or in adobe products. but i'm really tired of this..
i guess this problem because of the video card: ati hd 5700. their website has not any driver for this card suit for mac os.
appreciate any help..

"Slow" Leopard with bonus mouse issues!

I have a Mac Mini at work, and ever since upgrading it to Snow Leopard, it's been driving me insane. I haven't had time to deal with it, so I've gotten used to all the annoying performance issues I'm having. Simply put, Snow Leopard is super slow, or "dopey" as I like to say. Every thing I do (EVERYTHING) happens slowly. Here are a few examples of what I'm dealing with. Switching between apps takes too long, from many seconds to minutes for an app to "wake up" again. When I click Print in Numbers, the print window takes up to a minute to appear, and then another 10-20 seconds before I can actually click print. As an added bonus, the mouse does a couple of "nifty" things on a regular basis. The first thing it does is it "locks" the left-click as if I'm holding down the button. I have to click it again to "release" it, so a lot of the time, I'm clicking the mouse three times just to do one click. The downward scroll also stops working intermittently. Now take the goofy mouse and mix it with the dopey leopard, and you've got yourself a wacky guessing-game! Is the mouse button locked or am I just waiting for the dopey leopard to wake up? Let's click again and see what happens! Maybe the pinwheel will show up, or maybe an open window will move halfway off the screen. Or better yet, maybe I'll delete two emails instead of just the one I wanted to! Weee! And by the way, the mouse issues happen whether I'm using a wired USB Mighty Mouse, wireless Mighty Mouse, or a Magic Mouse. Every once in a while, I get brief glimpses of the real Mac Mini - everything zips along beautifully for a couple minutes - but then it goes back to "dopey" mode. I don't even know who this Mac is anymore. My seven-year-old iMac at home works better than this thing. It doesn't do much anymore, but at least it shows me some respect.

How full is the hard drive?
Try resetting the PRAM. Info here:

Black screen with mouse

Hey everyone ,
I have a Lenovo z50 70 laptop which is just 4 months old. Recently I exper muffled sounds from speakers and updated the driver. After installation and restarting and logging in I am left with black screen and cursor . As some of the forums said I tried running explorer in task manager . Please give me another solution for this.
Thank u

Hi Htj10,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
When you are in the Black screen with mouse situation, Try Pressing Windows key + R to open a run box
If that open type in msconfig and let me know if that pulled up the system configuration window.
You can follow this guide to run the system in a Clean Boot.

Jumpy wired Apple Mouse issue solved

I just want to share this with you whom has the same issue I had.
A few weeks ago I got myself a new Mac Mini and I used Migration Assistant to transfer everything (including Applications) from late 2009 Mac Mini to my new mid 2011 Mac Mini. Both Macs use Lion OS. It was a successful migration accept the mouse is acting funny on my new Mac. The mouse behaves jumpy.
The jumpy mouse happens when QuickTime 7 Pro, QuickTime X or/and iTunes are launched. When I quit them, the mouse goes back to normal behavior. I also notice that when any of these applications are launched, CPU usage reaches between 100% and 230% certainly and then drop back to 45% inconsistently. I believed what causes the CPU spike is totally QuickTime related. I realized it’s either its extension, preference or somethings else that needed to be taken care of.
Since I just purchased my new Mac Mini, I was entitled to free Mountain Lion upgrade. So I upgraded and hoping it will resolve my jumpy mouse issue. Somehow, it didn't but I love the new features from Mountain Lion though.
Finally, I decided to delete QuickTime 7 Pro completely. I also deleted com.apple.quicktime.plist in the Preferenc folder. Restarted my Mac. Voilà! Jump mouse stops completely. I launched QuickTime X and also iTunes, it doesn't cause any jumpy mouse issue anymore.
I hope this will help.

I have a Mac Pro 2007 (2,1) at work. Recently I upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion (10.7.5) which is the last supported OSX for this model. After updating is finished, jumpy mouse symptom appears. I tried deleted all the preference filies but it did not work. To make long story short, it's the video board that caused the problem.
About a year ago I upgraded my video card to ATI Radeon HD 5770 Graphic Card. It works fine on Snow Leopard but not on Lion. On Lion, not only it causes jumpy mouse but also screen flickering on second monitor every few minutes or so.
So I uninstalled the card and put back the original OEM video card that came with it. The jumpy mouse stops and everything is back to normal.

C655D 5210 tosiba black screen with mouse pointer

I have only had this computer for 8 months. One day I turned it on, and windows kept restarting. After a few trouble shooting steps off the internet, I decided to reinstall windows 7 and lose my data and start all over. The first time it could not repair the computer and asked me to send the information to microsoft. Cannot boot in safe mode, I can get to the setup utility screen. This is a new Windows 7 cd. After several tries, it installed and said it had to restart, (this may happen several times) it only restarted once, then a black screen with a cursor. When I try to boot from the cd, the windows logo apppears, then a black screen with mouse pointer again. Toshiba is no help at all. This is my third Toshiba laptop. The first one did the same thing. But it was out of warranty, the amount they wanted to charge us, i just got another one. My mom's Toshiba just died with no real reason, the old one is in the garbage, and this one is only 8 months old. Toshiba would like us to send the computer in, pay for shipping, wait for 3 weeks, pay to ship it back to us, with a promise that it may not work.
Please help
here is the error message when trying to install windows 7

Server 2008 crash - black screen with mouse cursor

dell poweredge 2950 with Perc 5/I RAID, ESXi 4.1 host, Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 VM
After swapping out a failed raid5 drive this vm began displaying inpage operation error popups while checking folder permissions. event viewer errors:
The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume \Device\HarddiskVolume2.
The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume C:.
chkdsk /r run from the win2k8r2sp1 install dvd command line resulted in more corrections than i was able to screenshot:
After this the server would only boot to black screen with mouse cursor. same black screen result in safe mode or directory services restore mode. sfc /scannow, startrep, and registry repair from the folder contents @ c:\windows\system32\config\regback
have been attempted with no improvement. I am still able to access the filesystem contents using the command line from the win2k8r2sp1 installation DVD - user + registry files copied over to another drive without problem and i was able to load
the registry hive on another system. This server was doing dns, domain controller and certification authority but the only important item is getting the CA back somehow. Any suggestions are welcome.

Hi,
According the information you have provided, the file system is broken.
After the repair, do chkdsk /r and sfc /scannow give any warning or error?
If yes, it means that the file system and system file are not repaired. Please post the error or warning here. It may give some hints.
Best Regards.

Gnome Black Screen with Mouse Cursor after Login

I am using Archlinux 64bit with a Gnome Desktop Environment. Everything was running normally uptill today. When i ran "sudo fc-cache", my system froze. I couldnt open any other app but i was able to access terminal. I restarted using "reboot" command. After that I was unable to log in to my desktop.
The Gnome login screen comes and after entering the correct username and password, all I can see is a black screen with mouse cursor. I then started gnome manually with "startx" and it worked. But still I am unable to use normally (that is the graphical login). I reinstalled gdm but it didnt work. Please help me out.

Magic Mouse issues after updating to iTunes 11

Hi,
Just updated to iTunes 11, and immediately after installing I have been losing Bluetooth connection to my Magic Mouse. This usually happens when I click on an icon in my dock to launch an App. Specifically, most often when I am launching iTunes. I've ruled out a battery issue, as I've replaced them and it doesn't make a difference. I've even cleared my PRAM at startup (CMD+OPT+P+R at startup), since I saw this suggested for similar Magic Mouse issues not related to iTunes. Resetting the ram made no difference in my case.
I've had the Magic Mouse for 2+ years, and this has never been an issue before. In fact, I've never had any connection issues with the mouse that weren't related to weak batteries, and everything was working great until I installed iTunes 11. Just wondering if others have had this issue since upgrading to iTunes 11, and if so, how it was corrected?
Thanks.

Hi, I've not had this issue, but iTunes 11 does seem to be doing something to my Magic Mouse. For example within iTunes 11 I can no longer swipe forwards and backwards. Not sure if there is some kind of hitch with the new iTunes software and the Magic Mouse firmware?

I have a 17" Macbook pro with flickering red and cyan(blue) lines across the screen. The issue disappears temporarily when I tap on the computer, and the problem does not occur when I use external display or try to screen capture the problem.

I purchased my Macbook (17") through a certified apple tecnition in August 2012, it was refurbished and the motherboard was completely replaced. I do a lot of photo editing, but I have been unable to do so because of the red vibrating lines that interrupt my screen. The issue disappears temporarily when I tap on the computer, and the problem does not occur when I use external display or try to screen capture the problem. I brought the computer back to the technition I purchased it from and he said that it was a problem with my fan, so I have two new fans but the issue is still occuring. He says he doesnt know whats wrong. Does anyone have any information on this issue?
Here is an image of the issue

I recommend having your Mac serviced by someone competent. A force sufficient to "blow apart" the fans was clearly excessive and may have damaged the display cable, as well as any number of other problems.
Dust is properly cleaned with a vacuum, preferably one designed for computer service, and they are not cheap.
Compressed air should never be used. It just blows dust everywhere, often into places where it can no longer be removed.

T400 mouse issues after spill

Hi,
I love my T400. It is the best built, most trouble-free laptop I've owned. Now I have an issue due to a stupid spill.
I spilled a fair amount of beer over the keyboard and immediately powered down. If I had it to do over I would have uplugged and removed the battery, but hindsight is 20/20 as they say.
At any rate, I unscrewed the keyboard and examined it and below it and didn't find any beer residue except on the keyboard itself. I popped all the key tops off and cleaned the entire area with ispropyl alcohol. There was a lot of dirt and hair in there. I think I went through about 70 double-tipped swabs. I also looked at the underside of the trackpad and didn't see anything that looked like it needed cleaning. I didn't remove any ribbon cables.
I'm using the same laptop right now and it is fully functional with the exception of an annoying mouse issue. I'll refer to the buttons as upper left, upper right, lower left and lower right which should be self explanatory. I've never used the upper middle button so not even sure what it is supposed to do.
The first thing I noticed was that the lower left button didn't work and the lower right button seemed to only work in certain instances. I hooked up a USB mouse and that overcame my problem. I soon noticed problems with that where it appeared a mouse click wasn't registering. I also about the same time remembered the upper mouse button on the laptop and started using that.
Generally, my upper left works for any left click functions. However I've notice in Google Chrome, I can't select a tab to change to it. If I left click the tab close, it does close the tab.
If I left click on my desktop, I get the right-click menu. The upper left button produces the Windows Start menu just fine but it is rare that I can get the right-click Windows Start menu. When I can, it is only with the upper right button.
What I'm guessing from all this is, everything that is mouse-related must run through the same hardware regardless of the input used (upper buttons, lower buttons or external USB device) and different software handles mouse clicks differently explaining the differences (good, intermittent or never) in response.
Here's another example. To run the Windows calc program from the Start menu Run feature, normally I would left click run and get the dialog with a drop down menu for recent programs accessed thru Run. Let's say I'm using calc. Simetimes this works normally. Other times when I click Run, I get a single option "drop-down" menu with that option being "run" which if clicked THEN takes me to the typical drop down menu of recent programs. Other times, I get a context menu which includes the Run option.
With that in mind, I'm wondering if replacing the touchpad assembly is likely to fix my problems or if anyone has any other suggestions other than to not spill beer on your laptop.
Thanks

hey beeherd,
replacing the touchpad assembly should resolve the issue. however, i am unable to guarantee that it will.
you could try that, or use an external mouse?
do a reinstallation of mouse drivers and use this manual : http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles_pdf/43y6629_04.pdf .
open the unit and dry it in a dust free room.

X100e keyboard/mouse issues

Hi Folks,
I've been having trouble with my recently purchased x100e (running Windows 7), and I'm hoping that someone may be able to help me out. I've been looking through the forums and on the web for solutions, but no luck.
Starting a few days ago, I notice that whenever I press a button on the keyboard, a dialog box pops up to ask me if I want to display the Trackpoint Guide. This prevents me from typing anything longer than one keystroke, because the dialog box just comes back when I hit the next key regardless of pressing "Yes" or "No." Additionally, whenever I press a key, the cursor changes from the standard pointer to the scroll icon that would display if I was pressing the middle mouse/scroll button above the trackpad. Furthermore, the middle mouse/scroll button above the trackpad no longer works when pressed.
I have noticed that it is possible to disable the Trackpoint dialog box from coming up by clicking the "do not display this message" option, but the cursor issue persists no matter what. The laptop is hardly a month old. I use antivirus, anti-spyware, etc. I have tried updating the mouse/trackpoint driver and also rolling it back to the originally installed driver, but neither step seems to resolve the issue. I thought that perhaps I had inadvertently changed some of the mouse settings, so I did a factory reset on the machine. Unfortunately, that didn't solve the issue either. I did an extra factory reset just to make sure. I've run anti-virus and anti-malware scans to see if anything would show up, but nothing does. This one really has me perplexed. If there's anyone out there who could offer any advice, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks!

Hi onlylive2x,
Welcome to Lenovo Forums.
Could you try doing a factory reset without installing any antivirus or antispyware and see if there are any keyboard/mouse issues? This could be some software which is causing a conflict with the mouse drivers.
