What would cause my corded mouse to stop working?

Mid 2010 Mac Pro running OSX 10.6.8. Was checking e-mail this a.m. and suddenly lost all mouse connection. Tried different USB ports, and different corded mouse as well as wireless mouse. Any thoughts as to the cause? FYI I checked the mouse on a PC at home and it works fine. Thanks!

At 4 years the PRAM battery starts dying, causing all sorts of peripherals to start to misbehave.

What would cause keynote 5.1 to stop playing slides? It reverts back to production mode.

My version of keynote on my MacBook has begun acting strange. If I say a presentation as a powerpoint it will open it and play it. If I open one saved as a keynote it will not play. It will revert back to production mode. I have a major presentation due on Monday Oct 14. I'd like to do it from my old MacBook which has served me well for many years. My other option is to save it as a powerpoint and play it on one of the agency pc laptops.

If I open one saved as a keynote it will not play. It will revert back to production mode.
Keynote will only play a presentation full screen if it has been set to do so, have you made this setting?:
Inspector > Document > Document > Automatically Play on Opening

What would cause the Messages App to only work intermittently?

The first letter typed should switch the Send button on indicating things are ok, more often than not this doesn't happen. Settings seem to be right so what else might be causing this?

I'll bet the lightbulb for execution highlighting isn't visable either is it? The problem is that someone turned off debugging for the VI in question. Debugging code does cost a little time so people who typically run their applications in the development system will sometimes turn off debugging. (Building a standalone application forces debugging off automatically).
To be able to probe your routine, right click on the vi's icon in the title bar and select "VI Properties..." and go to the "Execution" catagory and make sure the box labled "Allow Debugging" is checked.
This should put things right...

What would cause my Game Center app to stop working ?

What would cause my Game Center app to stop working & other apps to just shut off .

I've attached a stripped down version of the subVI which handles the UDP connection.
In the Init and Disconnect cases, I've had to remove the startup and shutdown commands as that's protected info, but they are just fixed U8 arrays. The subVI does not have any incoming errors when executed by itself or as part of the main VI nor does the Init case generate any errors. Also, the UDP Open and UDP Write functions process a nonzero Connection ID.
Let's see, what else? The Init and Disconnect cases operates just once at the beginning and end, as you might expect. While the Read case operating at 1x/sec during normal operation.
Let me know if there's any more insight I can provide.

What would cause Safari to stop running Adobe Flashplayer?

What would cause Safari to stop running Adobe Flashplayer? It's on my computer. It works with other browsers. Most websites don't complain. When I ask them to show me stuff, however, it comes out looking like a math problem written in Turkish or Romanian.
What about pdf files? Same thing.

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Security
and check the box marked Allow other plug-ins.

Basic troubleshooting steps are restart, reset, restore. If these are tried and you still have problems then you have a hardware failure and will need to have your phone replaced by Apple.

What would cause the printer to only print text in microsoft word but no images

i have a hp deskjet D1320 printer, windows xp operating system, and i have always printed greeting cards from microsoft word by inserting an image and then printing it with the printer set to duplex(2sided)printing option, so after you print the image you flip the card around and then print the text on the inside of the card. now the printer does not print any images when i insert the image and then click print it just runs 1 piece of paper through the printer and stops but it will still print text just fine, does anyone know what would cause this type of an issue?
thank-you,

DPS: pinch and zoom function not working on all pages within folio (v30 tools using the pdf setting). What would cause some pages to pinch and zoom fluidly, while other pages appear a bit sticky? Could it be a button on the wrong layer?

What would cause some pages in the same folio to pinch and zoom fluidly, while other pages appear a bit sticky? Could it be a button on the wrong layer that's not allowing the pinch and zoom to work?
I do have a "go to state" button that enlarges graphic to full page on the page. Could this be cancelling the pinch and zoom functionality? Would a box with text wrap ON affect the ability to pich and zoom? What else may be causing this?

I print 2 pages to pdf and file size is 600k, I print 1 additonal page and file size goes to 6M, what would cause this (graphics are same on all pages)

I print 2 pages to pdf and file size is 600k, I print 1 additonal page and file size goes to 6M, what would cause this (graphics are same on all pages).
I know the colour graphic shading in the document that causes the issue of larger file size, but it doesn't make sense that printing 1 additional page with same information as first 2 pages would cause this.
