Strange issue with left mouse clicking freezing other inputs on the Mac

I'm having a strange issue with my game. I'm using Flash CS6 and a Mac.
I've got a character that I move around the screen with keys, and you can click the left mouse button to make him throw something. The weird issue is when I click the left mouse button a lot, it seems to stop any other inputs from coming in, so for example, if I hold the right arrow key down while I'm doing a left clicking, and then let go of the right arrow key, the character will keep on moving right for a few seconds, until it finally get's the key_up event and stops.
Even not using any mouse event handlers, so the mouse is doing nothing in the game still causes the key inputs to be delayed just by left clicking, any ideas?
I've just tested the .swf on a PC and there was no problem, the mouse clicking was not causing any issues, so it's something peculiar to the Mac.

Hi,
This could be an issue if you were using Safari 5.1+ in 64bit mode. This should go away if you run Safari 5.1+ in 32 bit mode. You can change this by
1. Go to /Applications
2. Find Safari->RightClick->Get Info->Check 'Open in 32-bit mode' check box.
3. Relaunch Safari 5.1 again.
Thanks!

Strange issue with USB mouse and USB headset.

Good day everyone.
I was experiencing a rather strange issue with my mouse and headset(both USB).
I am using KDE and ALSA, if that matters.
They are working just fine, but sometimes, when I try to lower\raise volume, my mouse derps out. I can move it around, but I can't click on anything(sometimes though, I can click on stuff in window that was active before and sometimes only on KDE panel) until I re-plug my headset. Then, nothing can use my headset until I reboot.
Anybody ever had that problem?

I've had similar problems for some time now. Unfortunately, I don't know what the issue is either, but perhaps we can come up with some setup similarities and narrow it down. I have similar trouble with just alsa or with pulseaudio, so that's not it. It is unrelated to the DE, as it happened for me in both gnome 2 and xfce 4. It is not related to the machine either, as the same quirks occur in other machines with the same headset. I have had inconclusive results with downgrading to kernel26-lts, the ancient kernel. I thought at some point it messed up and I was sure the older kernel didnt help, but after trying recently-ish, I had no trouble for days -- until I found that I didn't have trouble on the main kernel either. ... then a few days later, it showed up again. Very irritating!
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=122475
Does my old thread sound like your issue somewhat?
Essentially, at times, if the headset (wireless) is changed into a different power state (unplugged/plugged) or the mic state is toggled (mute/unmute), things that could be clicked on normally cant unless theyre in the window already focused -- mostly.
What headset are you using? 32 or 64 bit arch? Have you tried downgrading to kernel26-lts?

Adobe flash issues with a specific site but other users to the site can streem

Good day all
Please I have tested this on fedora 17, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and on sepaprate PCs (win 7). With Chrome, IE 9, Firefox all update and Adobe flash is updated too
I have test the flash on Adobe site and it is OK. But there is this erro all the time

Hi, Go to this Adobe test site and you should be able to see the Flash Player logo animate and your FP version will be listed also. The latest is 10.1.85.3. Test with Firefox and also with Safari.
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
The Shockwave Flash plugin works thru the browser and is Installed there, so when you view any Flash content or videos, etc. you are able to. That test site should tell you if Flash Player is working.
Hope that helps.

Left mouse click does not work

I have a mid-2010 Mac Book Pro 15", 8GB, Samsung 840 500GB SSD, w/ Mountain Lion.
About four to six months ago I started having issues where the left mouse button would stop working when I left the computer on unattended (but not asleep) for extended periods of time.
I have both a bluetooth keyboard and magic mouse connected most of the time, but when the issue occurs the button issue extends to both the external mouse and the on-system touch pad.
The issue started at about the same time that I took my system in to be repaired after the harddisk started failing. The system has since had the OS reloaded (twice) and the replacement harddisk has since been replaced with and SSD, so I if the original service is to blame, it is a peripheral issue (damage, firmware update, etc).
Here is where it gets really crazy... rebooting does NOT fix the issue. Shutting down and restarting does NOT fix the issue. Hard power off (holding the power until it hard-off's the system) then restarting DOES fix the issue.
The problem is reproducible, and since I've now demoted this laptop to being my television PC, it gets left on idle all the time (and hense the problem occurs all the time).
To the best of my knowledge I have all the latest patches and firmware loaded.
I suspect this is a low level firmware/hardware bug, but have no way to confirm and have had no luck with finding answers here or via the store.
Any assistance is appreciated!!

I can left mouse click any other program successfully. I can only left mouse click Firefox one time and then it refuses to work. I set the default mouse structure and pressed apply. It does me no good. There must be another cause for no other program has problems except for Firefox.

Pressing mouse wheel (or Ctrl + Left Mouse Click) on navigation arrows does not open previous/next page in new tab anymore

I am using the new Firefox Developer Edition as a stand-alone on Ubuntu, so I can still use the "old" version, too.
Everything seems to be working fine, as in I am logged in and setup sync. But a few features I got very much used to are no longer working.
When I click on "About Firefox Developer Edition", it shows these details:
Firefox Developer Edition 36.0a2 (2014-12-09)
Firefox Developer Edition is up to date
You are currently on the aurora update channel.
In my "old" Firefox, I can:
1. Click with the mouse wheel on the navigation arrows to open the previous or next page in a new tab.
2. "right mouse click" on the navigation arrows to see the list of previously visited pages of the current tab, and the ones I visited after the page I am on, if I clicked "back" once or more times. I can then click the mouse wheel or "Ctrl + Left Mouse Button" to open any of the pages in the list in a new tab.
None of this works in the Developer Edition.

To clarify, the list of previously or later visited pages does still show up when I right click on the navigation arrows in the Developer Version, but I cannot open any of the links in the list in a new tab with the mouse wheel or "Ctrl + Left Mouse Click".

Looking up the values in a waveform graph with a mouse click

Hi,
Does anyone know how to look up the values in a waveform graph with a mouse
click but... without the cursor legend on, if i press in the waveform graph
nothing happens, i must search my cursors and only then i can see the values
of my signal data?! Isn't there any other way?
Best regards,
Thijs Boerée

Dear Chad,
I know of the function "bring cursor to center". I also figured out that
when i use a property node of the cursor array of clusters, that i can see
that some values change when i move the cursor (i can see the X and Y scale
value change of the graph and also the values of the mouse pointer (in
points due to screen resolution)) But in this cluster i can't set the mouse
position. I allready made a VI where i can see the bounds of my
waveformgraph and I have the Xscale (min and max) and the Yscale (min and
max), with a linear fit i can translate my mouse position to X an Y scale
values and when i click on my waveform graph the cursor go's to that
position (property node of the cursor position), only disadvantage is that i
only have the bounds of my plot area and not the position, i do have the
position of my waveform graph but the plot area isn't allways in the center,
if i could extract the position of the plot area i may find a solution to
solve this problem.
And to file a product question:
I would like to see the function that with a mouse click a little menu
appears and that there are options to for example set a marker on that data
and when you right click on it, that there are options to remove it or to
add comment, a 2D array could make a list of the different channels with
it's markers (time stamps and comments).
Best regards,
And thank you for your help.

Strange issue with Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro

I have a user who has a very strange issue. When she clicks the acrobat pro shortcut, adobe reader launches. The target path of the shortcut is correct and even when I drill down through C: and program files all the way to acrobat.exe, reader launches.
even running acrobat.exe from the runline launches reader instead of pro
any suggestions?

The other option is to go into the task list and disable AcroRd32.exe. One of the problems with both Reader and Acrobat being installed is that they leave a part resident for fast startup (I think this can be disabled). Thus Reader is likely sitting there partially open in the background and when you click on Acrobat, it sees Reader and opens there. You might check the startup list in MSCONFIG and see if you can disable AcroRd32, but once Reader is run it may leave it there again anyway.
It may be best to uninstall Reader, but you will likely have to repair AA8 Pro after the uninstall since the uninstall usually breaks the versions that are left.

Strange Issue with Login into SDN

Hi,
I am facing a strange issue. If I click on the blog link [Blogs|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs] without login in to SDN, I am able to see the blog page. But once I login to SDN and click on the same link the blog page is not displayed (even though the top header and the left side bars are displayed correctly).
Am I the only one facing this. Could this be some setting with my browser? I am using IE6.

I sometimes get this with IE6 - apparently the most popular browser in the corporate world. I find that completely closing IE6 and then restarting - then login and then go to the blogs will resolve the problem. As I understand it, IE6 is probably the worst version of the software that exists - it improves after that. But at home I use firefox.

Strange issue with Spry Accordion Panels

Hi, I'm having some strange issues with the Spry Accordion
Panels.
Here is the page:
http://www.bellaclientcenter.com/browncollege/aboutus.html
For some reason when I preview this message it adds extra
characters to the url above, so just delete those off to see the
correct url.
The only browser this does NOT happen in is safari, I'm
seeing it all of my other browsers. You'll notice when you first
load up the page, you'll see that the active panel header
background is green, and the non active is a dark grey. But when
you click one of the other panels they all turn a strange neon blue
color. This is very apparent in firefox.
Any thoughts on this? I've attached the spry css code in case
the problem is there.
thanks so much!!
Jeff

That is because your page is currently invalid. And renders in IE quirksmode..
<base href="http://www.industrialwebsearch.com/">
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
So make sure your page is valid, and the animations will go smooth in ie

I can't use option "Open in Background Tab". Before was Command+Left mouse click

Hey,
Here:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Mouse%20shortcuts?s=Open+in+Background+Tab&as=s
is shown that '''Command+left mouse click''' is opening in new tab in background.
In Firefox 4 it doesn't work. Do you have any idea how to make it work?
Thanks.

It's called New Tab Homepage and it's here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/
It's OK and fixed my problem with 90%. Before New Tab which I wanted to open in Background, was opening just after main Tab. Now New Tabs are opening in Background, but at the end...
But it's OK - like Safari.
Thanks man!

My left mouse click randomly quits on both my iMac mouse and my wacom tablet. How can I fix this?

Throughout the day the left mouse click quits. I can right click with my mouse but not left click. It happens on my wacom mouse, the pen mouse AND my iMac mouse that was bought with the computer. Restarting or completely shutting down the computer does not get it to reboot. It will come back randomly too. It's so odd and I do not have an explination why this is happening.
I've looked for software updates but can not find any on the apple site OR wacom site.
Please help?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

Strange issue with WEBI schedule Report

Hi All,
I have a strange issue with schedule WEBI reports, a schedule report runs for Hours , i reschedule it again by deleting the instance and the schedule report never got succeed even after running for hours.
Any idea???
regards

Hi Manoj,
1. Try to put some filters in the report and then run the report. if it takes less time, then probably your query is fetching very large data.
2. MDX query error may be the reason , this error come when a query runs endless, please try running the query 2-3 times, or when load on server is less.
Hope this will help,
Anamika.

Strange issue with Apple ID in iTunes and Safari

I have a client who recently has had a very odd issue with his Apple ID. He is unable to purchase any music from the iTunes store on his MacBook Pro running 10.9.4 and iTunes 11.3. When he tries to purchase a song from the iTunes store, he enters in his correct apple id and password but itunes just returns right back to the login window with blank fields. There is no error message about using an incorrect password or apple id. When we try to log in to the Manage Apple ID page using Safari, we get the exact same thing. No error, just goes right back to the login screen like nothing happened. We can, however, log in to the site using another browser like Firefox or Chrome without issue.
I have done some extensive troubleshooting and isolated it to the user library since itunes and safari work fine in a test account we created. I've tried pulling all seemingly related pref files, application support files, caches, keychain items, the safari folder, etc. Basically if it was in the user library and had safari, apple id or itunes in the file name, I pulled it. This didn't fix the issue. I was able to temporarily fix the issue by pulling pretty much everything from the user library folder's application support and preferences folders. Everything worked for a little while but then the issue returned.
Does anyone have an idea what file could be going corrupt so quickly that is causing both safari and iTunes to no longer log in with his Apple ID?
Thanks in advance!

Sometimes resetting an Apple ID password can help > Apple - My Apple ID
If that doesn't help, from the iTunes menu bar click Store > Sign Out
Restart the Mac, launch iTunes then sign in again.

Strange issue with RAM upgrade: It works but it doesn't! Please help.

Hello Everyone,
I have a very strange issue with my iMac since upgrading my RAM from 4 to 12 gig. When I first installed the new RAM it booted up and ran great. The next time I went to boot the iMac up it swtiched on but didn't get as far as the first white boot up screen. I tried turning it off and on a few times using the power on/off button but still no success. I decided to remove the RAM and reseat it. The computer then booted up again fine. Here's the problem though: when I went to switch my iMac on the next day it wouldn't boot up. Again, I took the RAM out and put it back in and the iMac booted up fine. I've checked the status of the RAM in the system profiler and it reports that everything is OK. So, I'm at a loss. Obviously, I don't want to go through this process every time I want to start up my Mac. Any ideas/solutions would be very gratefully received.
Many thanks in advance.

I completely agree with you. It will be one of the 3 issues you outline. The machine was bought brand new and has never given me a problem. It is just the introduction of the new RAM that has started a problem. However, I did just risk a restart and it booted up fine. I don't know if a restart is any different to shutting down and then pressing the on/off button to start the computer. Maybe my last reseating has done the trick or maybe my thinking is flawed because restarting involves a different process to booting up by pressing the on/off button. I don't know.
In the part of the world I'm sitting in it's night time now so I will leave the diagnostics running and check the results in the morning. I hope the issue is now resolved anyway. This sort of thing takes me back to my dark PC days although in this case I know it's probably not the Mac's fault.
Thanks again. Very much appreciated.
