T43p - Mouse pointer freezes after changing the battery to a new one

Hello,
I have bought a new battery for my IBM Thinkpad T43p. In the description of the new battery I have seen that this battery is compatible with T43 series. Battery details are: DC 10.8V 5200mAh/56Wh. Replace: 08K8214.
My problem is:
I have ordered a new battery for my Thinkpad T43p but when I turned off the notebook and replace the old battery with the new one the notebook became strange. I use Windows XP Prof on this computer and when the login screen appeared and during I was typing my user name and password the mouse pointer was freezed and I had to turn off the computer. It was happened within approx 1 minute after the Login screen appeared. The symptom was the same with or without plugged in AC charger. I have tried several times and the same behavior was happened. When I changed back the old battery the computer became normal again without any freezing. The fan was working properly in both cases. The symptom is the same if I change the battery during AC charging and using Windows.
I don't have an idea about the reason of it. Can you help me with ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Slider

Pull the battery out and run the machine on AC only. Does it freeze now?
If it doesn't, the "new" battery needs to be replaced.
Good luck.
Cheers,
George

I can not get my mouse to work after changing the batteries

I can not get my wireless mouse to work after changing the batteries

Some ‘dumb’ questions just so we don’t assume what you have done:
Batteries installed with both + poles pointing to the top as you hold the mouse?
Mouse switch has been returned to the ‘on’ position - do you see a green light? First it will be solid green and then flashing green as the mouse tries to pair with the computer.
Try clicking the mouse a few times as it’s trying to pair.
If you don’t see a green light, try wiping off all battery contacts and reinserting the batteries. If still no green light and the mouse switch is ‘on’, are these old rechargeable batteries that been recharged many times or are they fresh normal batteries (not rechargeable batteries)?

HT3176 my apple remote will not link to my appletv even after changing the battery

my apple remote will not link to my appletv even after changing the battery. can anyone help?

Your Apple TV may have become paired with another remote. Hold the remote close to and pointed at the Apple TV, hold down the menu and Rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see a broken chain icon on screen.

After changing the battery in my iphone 4s, the phone will not boot up. I only see the apple and when it sits for a few minutes, a code shows above it. What is going on? Did I damage the phone by replacing the battery?

My sister gave me her iphone 4s for my son. It needed a new battery so, I bought one and replaced it. after doing so, it will not power up. I can only see the apple on the screen and when left for a few minutes.... 10 lines of numbers and codes show up at the top of the screen. Did I ruin the iphone by replacing the battery? Was a simple switch so I don't understand what is going on. Have never had one of these before.

iPhones are not user servicable.
Take the device to a competent repair person or buy a new one.

Mouse pointer disappears after using the magnifying glass in the color picker

Hello,
I've a problem (one more) with Lion on a Mac mini 2010. Every time I select a color from the screen using the magnifying glass in the color picker, the mouse pointer disappears. I've to move the mouse to the top of the screen and try to click the bar menu. If I succeed, I get the pointer back.
Someone with the same problem?
Thanks for reading

I've found a partial solution: The probem doesn't affect to a new fresh user, so you can backup your data, create a new temporary (admin) user, delete the original account and create it again with the same name (to avoid file permission troubles). Remember to backup your data or it will be lost.

My old ID was disabled so I created a new one for the new phone, but when I go to the apple store on my phone it says to enter a password for my old account, how do i change the id to my new one?

I went to the settings and entered my new account info with the new apple ID but everytime I try to download something it is asking me to enter the password for the old ID(which is disabled)

Maybe the App Store is still open with the old info?
Try this:
Restart your iPhone
Press Settings and then Store
Press your Apple ID and choose sign out
Press Home button
Go back to Settings > Store and then sign in with new ID/password.

Mouse Pointer freezing all the time

Mouse pointer freezing constantly
Hi!
My mouse pointer is regularly freezing after about 20 seconds or so. It is released by clicking. I have installed Parallels, and the Windows window says (on the lower left frame) "Click inside OS Window to capture mouse". This has not earlier been necessary even for the Windows window, but has now spread to the Mac side.
I find this utterly annoying and potentially harmful. If I have left the pointer in any place I am not aware of and want to retrieve it, I normally move it to find it. Now I have to click before I can move it, meaning I have to click the mouse in a position I do not know. I can see myself making purchases which ruin me, and the like...
I have recently installed Norton Antivirus on the Mac side and Norman Antivirus on the Windows side. Could that have anything to do with it?
Thank you for any information that can lead to capturing the culprit, dead or alive!
Hening.

Hi BDAqua
thank you for your fast reply. I followed yor advice, then booted from my backup disk, repaired the primary disk (no repairs needed) and repaired permissions again, and turned off Norton Auto-protection - altogether to no avail.
Disk Space on primary drive:
Capacity of drive 74.53 GB
Mac partition: Capacity: 59.97 GB; Available: 15.68 GB
Windows Partition (Bootcamp, accessed via Parallels):
Capacity: 14.24 GB, Available: 6.84 GB
This seems to mean that I have only 1.44 GB free space on my Mac volume.
Could this be the reason? Tomorrow, I'll move some large files to a backup medium.
Any more ideas?
Kind regards - Hening.

I have a iMac 21.5", with cordless mouse, very often it shows "not-connected" or "connected", at its will, we can't do anything. Changed the battery, no improvement. Now fixed another wired mouse to the system to work. My wire less keyboard working well

Also, I would reset the PRAM and SMC.

Mouse pointer freezing

Hi!
My mouse pointer freezes for no apparent reason, and the only thing that helps is force quitting and relaunching the Finder. This has occurred some times; some times I was able to solve the problem by pressing the space bar. But now it occurred in the middle of drawing a looong lasso in PhotoLine, I lost all that work, and I'm going nuts.
It's a Logitech cordless mouse that has worked flawlessly for eternities.
I have just repaired the HD. I have 6GB of RAM on the Nehalem. The RAM has tested OK in Memtest, in multi-user mode though.
Now it happened while I tried to correct "occured" to "occurred". It helped to put the mouse in the charging cradle. Could that be all there is to it? But the mouse was not lacking power, at least the diode was not red, it was not visible at all, and turning green at once when the mouse was put in the cradle. If the battery is empty, the diode turnes red at least in the beginning after the mouse is seated in the cradle.
Hoping for your help - Hening.

Thank you both for your advice. I will run Activity Monitor and watch it. The first thing that strikes me is that even if I do nothing, the memory (and, to a lesser degree, the CPU) allocation for different apps is changing all the time. While I am writing this, the CPU consumption is topped by TextEdit 1.7..0,6%, Activity Monitor 1,4..0,6%, Firefox 0,5%
appleaka, I don't know what kernel_task is, either; but this may not be so necessary.
I have now replaced the batteries and hope that helps. Of course even rechargeable batteries loose the capacity of being charged over time, so this might be the reason.
I'll watch for a while and then report. Thanks again. - Hening

Mouse pointer freezes sometimes

Whenever I unplug my iPod (shuffle) from the keyboard (of course after having the volume unmounted), some seconds later the mouse pointer freezes and the computer is totally unresponsive for some seconds. Then everything is normal again, i.e. the mouse pointer can be moved again.
The "system.log" tells something about communication problems with the USB and bus reset or similar.
Is this meant with "hot pluggable"? Should not the iPod be independent from the keyboard or mouse?

As far as I remember:
- It does not happen when directly connected to the computer
- It has never happened with the G3, only with the G5
And, yes, the iPod's firmware is the latest one.
And: Connecting the iPod to the keyboard is just more convenient, even if it's slower. As the MacOS does multitasking, I do not mind if a data transfer runs with two megabytes per second or with one, because I can do something else in the meantime.

Infuriating persistent intermittent temporary mouse pointer freeze...

Hi all,
Adjective overload??
I have browsed these boards for years but have never had the urge to post until now.
Recently I have noticed every 15 seconds or so my mouse pointer freezes. I am unable to move it. At all. For maybe 0.25 of a second. Then all back to normal. It's driving me insane.
Everything else seems to carry on just fine...
- iTunes plays without a break in sound
- No noticeable interruption to frame rate if a game is playing
I have reset PRAM, repaired permissions, plugged mouse direct into Mac Pro instead of the keyboard, tried a different mouse. Same issue.
I keep my Mac Pro well maintained.
I am terrified I have some major hardware malfunction!
Any thoughts or suggestions? Has anyone here experienced anything similar?
Any pointers or suggestions welcomed.
Thanks

Did this start happening after installing a certain program, does it happen only while using certain programs or does it happen at all times? Have you tried deleting the preferences and logging out/restarting? What mouse are you using, and did you install the manufacturer's program (like for button programming)? I had issues with Logitech's LCC program (not a freezing problem, but very irritating none the less) that was solved after I removed LCC and put Steermouse in its place.

My aluminum remote for Apple TV no longer seems to connect to the Apple TV receiver; I've changed the battery, but w/o success

My aluminum remote does not appear to connect with the Apple TV receiver; I've changed the battery. I can turn on the Apple TV and the opening screen comes up, but the remote doesn't seem to connect...no cursor or movement on the Apple TV screen occurs.

Random mouse pointer freezes

On my PPC dual 2.7 running latest Leopard 10.5.2, I have started experiencing random mouse pointer freezes. The freezes last about 10 seconds or so, then all goes back to normal. This happens maybe 10 times a day.
I cannot correlate this to any recent updates or installations. I have repaired permissions and zapped PRAM. My PPC is on 24/7 so all automatic maintenance routines run when they should.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jeff

Are you using Time Machine or .Mac Synchronizing? Those automatically run about once an hour and can temporarily slow the computer function.
Open Activity Monitor from the Finder menu, Go/Utilities, Activity Monitor. When the cursor movement slows, look at what application is using the most CPU.
You might also want to restart the computer once every day (or night). You can use the System Preferences Energy Saver to set it up to automatically restart when you are not likely to be using the computer, like 3 AM. The restart does a bunch of system checks and resets things to improve function.
