Stop mouse wheel from activating universal access

using a 3 button mouse ( airobic ) excellent btw. the wheel/scroll has started to activate the universal access window.
its a real 3d model killer
where do i go to disconnect this funciton tks

Can you try another mouse to see if your currently used muse is causing this problem?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • How to stop logitech mouse wheel from jumping to dashboard

    When working with a logitech (Mxxx) mouse, and I press the wheel, it takes me to the dashboard.    How can I stop it from doing this?   I called Logitech and they told me the issue is not their mouse since it doesn't happen in my windows version I have in the Mac through VMWare.   I need to stop it from doing this because I need the press of the wheel to allow me to pan on programs like AutoCAD and others.  I went out and bought a different logitech wireless mouse (Mxxx) and it does the same.   I have Mac OS 10.8.4. This happens on any program/application I run either in Windows or Mac programs.   I went to the properties of the mouse and it only allows me to change the right/left motion of the mouse. 

    I'm sorry but I don't see any options for Show/Hide Dashboard from your instructions.  I'm attaching a  screen shot of my system preferences.   There is no logitech assigned to anything.   I really need to get rid of this, or I won't be able to use it for work.

  • How to stop mouse pointer from being included on screenshots

    Hey guys I was hoping someone could help me with this problem.
    I am creating a software simulation and have decided to use Captivate 6.  When capturing the appropriate screenshots i have noticed that the mouse pointer is being included with these. I DO NOT want the mouse pointer to be included within the screenshot.
    I know how to disable the mouse pointer when setting my preferences before creaing the simulation, however, the mouse pointer is still being included in the screenshots. Here is an example below.. Can anyone help me?
    Thanks,
    Garrett
    Example: I orginally wanted to show the user's log in menu, but once I clicked "Login" the mouse pointer stuck to the screenshot. I don't want this mouse pointer to be there

    I actually chose Demo and assessment.  The mouse is not what I want to see in the slides. The timeline does not show a mouse at all because I have that functionality disabled. What I really want is to essentially replicate an application. I want the user to be able to start this captivate project from a flash drive and actually have the applications GUI with limited functionality (for training purposes). I am starting to think there is a problem with the application I am trying to replicate. I have a software product that I must start on a virtual machine. Once the virtual machine is up and running then can I actually start the application. I have already done two of these with different applications and had no problem at all with the mouse pointer disappearing. This one, however, is being very difficult. Maybe its because im using QNX?

  • Mighty Mouse, Programmable Buttons, and Universal Access

    I give up. I asked the folks at the Apple Store if I could program the Mighty Mouse such that one of the "primary" buttons could perform a "double-click" and the other "primary" button perform a "single-click" (i.e., so I don't have to push my finger down twice to both select and open an item). I was told the MM was "fully programmable" but if I can't make the thing do that, I wouldn't call that "fully" programmable. Not good for those of us with severe hand and arm problems and any hand surgeon, PT, OT, and ergonomist will tell you that this is a big deal - all the clicking and finger pushing.
    Maybe I'm not seeing something or some way to do this, please advise. I have a Kensington old wired mouse recommended by many ergonomists and PTherapists for this reason but thought that with the advent of Apple's new MMouse, Apple would have thought of this and allowed for such programmability in this new mouse. Too bad... I'll likely have to return it unless one of you can tell me how to program one of those buttons to do the 'double-clicking' for me for the price of 1 click.

    Can it be programmed, though, such that one click on an item will both select and open it? Please let me know. It seems impossible to get answers to this question from mouse manufacturers. I have now waited almost a week for Kensington to answer me even after calling and talking to a supposed "technician".

  • Stop flash running from player and accessing a web page

    Let's say i have built a 2 player game. What  if a user ( having a technical knowledge  ) saves the swf, decompiles it, cheats into the code, and runs the game from flash player (As naturally it cannot be run from owner's server, without uploading it there with his permission).
    How can i restrict him playing the game via flash player ?
    What i think is, i must use PHP session on the page, where the flash is being loaded. Can that do the trick ?
    Thanks

    If you post something on the Internet, those files are almost always first downloaded to the Internet cache and played back from there... so the viewer already has a copy.
    But with most games, there are many files that make up the "assets" of the game.. all pieced together ..... who knows how!!
    So while it's pretty easy to grab the main .swf (and perhaps decompile as you suggest), there may be dozens of other related files that must be coded in also.... that's the tough part.
    So while the game may be a really good game, it you post it on the Internet, it's almost always possible to download it.... but to reassemble, much, much harder. And I just don't think that many people would take the trouble to decompile and reassemble.
    Best wishes,

  • How Do I Stop The Wheel From Continuously Showing UP - I have new iMAC

    I am trying to figure out taxes - have new iMAC - I delete Caches under Develop continuously - have had to delete most of the helpful tabs -

    Sorry but your post make no real sense. To me at least.
    What is Develop Continuously?
    What are helpful tabs-?

  • How do I stop my cursor from activating when I hover?

    I recently changed out my old trackball to the Apple Bluetooth trackpad (OS X 10.10.1 on a late 2013 Macbook Pro).  Ever since, the cursor will activate a button/link if I hover briefly (less than a second), so I'm constantly being taken to pages I don't want to see, even though I haven't clicked on the button/link. How can I prevent this (or at least add to the delay before it activates)?
    Many thanks,

    Check your settings.   Are they set too sensitively?

  • Microsoft Security Essentials { MSE } wake pc or stop sleep mode from activating during scan

    In Windows 7, how do you keep the pc awake while the MSE is running.  I would also like to apply the fix to any of the other antivirus and malware scans that are scheduled to run when the pc usually goes to sleep.

    The DMP file is inconclusive. You could run driver verifier to find the underlying issue but WPR is often easier.
    In order to diagnose your problem you will need to download and install the below
    Install the WPT (windows Performance Toolkit) 
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30652
    Help with installation (if needed) is here
    When you have, open an elevated command prompt and type the following 
    WPRUI.exe (which is the windows performance recorder) and check off the boxes for the following:
    First level triage, CPU usage, Disk IO.  
    If you problem is not CPU or HD then check off the relevant box/s as well (for example networking or registry)  Please configure your as per the below snip
    Click Start
    It will reboot 3 t imes and record the data to a file and tell you its name and location.
    Zip the file and upload to us on Onedrive (or any file sharing service) and give us a link to it in your next post.
    These crashes were related to memory corruption (probably caused by a driver). 
    Please run these tests to verify your memory and find which driver is causing the problem.  
    If you are overclocking (pushing the components beyond their design) you should revert to default at least until the crashing is solved. If you don't
    know what it is you probably are not overclocking.
    Since it is more likely to be a driver please run verifier first.
    1-Driver verifier (for complete directions see our wiki here)
    If verifier does not find the issue we can move on to this.
    2-Memtest. (You can read more about running memtest here)

  • How do you stop the phone from attempting to logon to a deleted email account?

    When I first got my phone Skype video was not available so I opened a Yahoo email account so that I could use them for video calls.  I got frustrated with the phone in that about half of the time that I turned it on it would tell me that it couldn't connect to the Yahoo servers due to an invalid password.  Other times it would connect successfully.
    I went to the default email app and found an option to delete the Yahoo account.  I even went to the Yahoo web site and deleted the email account from there. 
    I thought that I had successfully deleted the account but now I get a message that the phone can't access the Yahoo servers every time I turn the phone on.  Any ideas on how to stop the phone from attempting to access the Yahoo email servers?
    I've checked and the email app doesn't list Yahoo and I can't find any reference to Yahoo in the apps section.
    Thanks.

    Nevermind, I fixed it (I think).  I went into Settings | Accounts & Sync and found Yahoo at the bottom of the list (alphabetically).  I selected it and it had an optiion to delete the account, which I did.

  • Unwanted Universal Access Active

    I have a client that reported problems with black boxes around icons his mouse pointer is selecting and that options within his Apple Menu are doubling up. I understand this to be that Universal Access is active. I assume the customer has hit a keyboard shortcut and activated it inadvertently. I have seen this quite often with many other clients and previously I have asked the client to go to their Home folder, Library/Preferences and remove the file "com.apple.universalaccess.plist" and reboot to resolve. However I have asked this customer to do this but Universal Access remains active. The only difference I can see from previous clients that removing the preference has been successful for and this client is that the former was running 10.4 Tiger and the latter is running 10.5 Leopard. I have tried zapping the PRAM thinking Apple may be storing Universal Access setting in PRAM now but again it is still active. Does anybody have any thoughts on this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    On a closer reading of your initial post, I don't see Universal Access at play here.
    problems with black boxes around icons his mouse pointer is selecting and that options within his Apple Menu are doubling up.
    Can you make black boxes around icons with Universal Access?
    As far as the Apple Menu items doubling up, you were on the right track, wrong plist.
    Trash the ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist, then log out and log back in again. That will remove the double ups in the Apple Menu.

  • Universal Access Mouse Keys Double Click Broken In Lion

    Hi,
    Lion has made a couple of changes to the Universal Access Mouse Keys, BUT...
    You can no longer double click with the 5 key...
    This is a HUGE problem for users reliant on this to counter RSI problems.
    To reproduce:
    In Universal Access, toggle Mouse Keys to 'On'.  Open a text document, hover the cursor over a word, and double click using the number pad 5 key.
    Prior to Lion this selected the word.  In Lion this is no longer happens.
    I am using an Apple keyboard with number pad and a MacBookPro.
    Please re-instate this functionality.
    Regards,
    Rob.

    This was fixed in 10.7.2 or 3 from memory, but returned in 10.8 and remains in 10.8.2.
    I use Keyboard Maestro to map F17 on my keyboard to double-click, Ctrl+F17 to triple-click

  • Opening a pdf document open in another tab prevents the mouse scroll wheel from responding in the current tab. I have observed this behaviour since version 3.x.

    Right click on link for pdf document and "Open in another tab"
    Immediately, the mouse wheel scroll function stops working in the current tab (or any other open tabs).
    It's not a deal breaker, just a strange annoyance.

    Using similar scroll function on my netbook. To add to the above, I find that using scroll is actually causing the PDF to scroll rather than the tab I'm actually in.
    Reader 9 is installed on my Win7 Starter.

  • I have a brand new macbook pro that i was doing a data transfer from an old macbook, it got stopped/cable pulled out, now have spinning wheel of death that wont stop, how do i reboot/stop the wheel of death and start again?

    i have a brand new macbook pro that i was doing a data transfer via firewire from an old macbook, it got stopped/cable pulled out, now have spinning wheel of death that wont stop, how do i reboot/stop the wheel of death and start again? (this time il use time machine transfer)

    Just power off the machine(s). Shut them down. Migration Assistant gets 'stuck' sometimes - best way to migrate really isn't over Firewire, though it will certainly work, but with both machines hardwired via Ethernet to the same router. You can use a TM backup, too, of course, provided that it's recent. Which is the best? Your choice. I've done it both ways and have a preference for MA, but TM restore can be a bit faster and less quarrelsome.
