When hovering a box starts to appear behind the cursor and changes brightness

When I use some of the tools in photoshop (eraser, lasso, etc.) a box starts to appear behind it. Depending on the color of what it's hovering over it will start to change either to white or black.
How do I get rid of this? I just want a normal cursor without this box behind it. For some reason when I switched over to Photoshop CS3 this was the preset, and I can't find how to switch it back to the original cursor.

See if trashing your Photoshop prefs. will cure this.
If you don't know how to do that, this FAQ will help:

  • When i unplugg my ipod lines appear across the screen and wont turn on how come?

    when i unplugg my ipod lines appear across the screen and wont turn on how come?

    Is it working properly when it is connected to power? 
    when i unplugg my ipod lines appear across the screen and wont turn on
    Please clarify...  Does the screen look "normal" (and is it turned "on") when connected?  When you disconnect it, "lines appear across the screen"?  If it "wont turn on," how are there lines (or anything) appearing on the screen?

  • Why did FF start to freeze, flash the cursor and refuse to play videos yesterday?

    Basically out of nowhere YouTube stopped loading Videos. At first other Streams would still work but by now I only get a black square, where the clip should appear. Pretty much at the same time, whenever a YouTube tab was open, even without a player in it the "thinking wheel" appeared at the cursor an started flashing (strangely it stops when I mouseover a link) and from time to time the whole browser freezes für about 30 seconds. Everything is fine in Chrome and IE
    I've gone through several forums trying to solve at least one of the issues, but nothing worked. My failed attemps so far were:
    -update all plugins
    -update all players
    -update FF though FF itself refused to do so and I had to download the install.exe with chrome
    -restart FF
    -reset FF
    -delete and reinstall FF
    -restarting the pc
    -clearing the cache
    -clearing the cookies
    -disable hardware acceleration
    -FF safe mode
    -switching off caret browsing
    -enabled HTML5 in YouTube
    So, mighty race of men, a chance for you to show your quality!

    Is it possible that some sites may be blocking this the one that is titled: [This plug-in enables downloading of Flash videos]
    There were some login issues that day [http://downdetector.com/status/youtube/news/7830-problems-at-youtube-3] There would have been issues if you were logged in. However it looks like this has cleared up, have you still experienced issues over the weekend?
    If so, try to create a new profile and access the youtube videos while you are not logged into your youtube account. If you have a login cookie at the site, log out and back in again to create a new cookie.

  • Mail messages in my In Box are not appearing in the list of messages.

    Mail: SOME mail messages in my In Box are not appearing in the list of messages.  Instead, there's a blank line in its place if already read, or just the blue dot if unread.  But when I click on the line, the message's column/header detail appears (and I can open it).
    (Coincidental or not, immediately prior to this situation, I established a New Rule that mail coming from my son's email address should be Moved to the IN Box as they had been going to Trash.  None of the emails I'm questioning have any reference to his email address in them.)

    Continuation of info (from GDTGG): When I leave that mail message and click on a different one, the blank line marking its place once again appears for the message.  (There was a similar problem posted by someone else in 2009 entitled "Inbox Has Blank Lines" but with no apparent solution that I could find.)

    Hi,
    The Event Viewer can be a great help to determine the root cause of an issue or to find new leads in case regular troubleshooting of Outlook didn’t bring any results.
    Open the Event Viewer:
    Press Win + R and type “eventvwr” in the blank box, then press Enter.
    You may find the Error Entries for Outlook, also Event ID, text description after the crash happens, post the information in the forum and maybe we can find something useful to find the root cause.
    You may know more about Event logs from this article below:

  • The Taskbar context menu to appear behind the Taskbar

    This bug was first found in Windows 8 but after some time we noticed that its also present in Windows 7. This bug causes the Taskbar context menu to appear behind the Taskbar.

    That's the for the secondary track.  But how do I trim the primary audio song from itunes.  I did find a work around. 
    select  the song in itunes.
    command + I to get the information screen.
    Under one of the tabs there is a "start" and "end" timer.  Trial and error will put allow you to start and stop at the time specifed.
    I renamed it " trimmed" so I knew it was a timmed version...then I inserted it into aperture the normal way...
    A pain, but it works...

  • All APPLICATIONS CRASH WHEN AN ALERT BOX POPS UP! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD HELP!

    When any alert box pops up (e.g. Reseting Safari, Changing an extention in Finder) The application that sent the alert crashes within a few seconds. I do not know how this happened, but it is very annoying and harmful to what i am working on. I think this started a few days ago, and the only thing that i think might of caused it is Google earth, which i just installed. I tried disk utility (on and off the CD), to no avail. This is not restricted to any particular program, and crashes everthing. Please, For the Love Of God Help!!!!!!
    I have Safari 1.3.2 (if it helps)

    Hi--
    Try this: go to the System Preferences and look at the "Speech" preference pane. Make sure everything is turned off in the "Spoken User Interface" tab. Especially the "Speak the Alert Text".
    If that's not it, open up your Console application from the Utilities folder. Click on the "Logs" icon at the top left until you see a listing of folders on the left side. Click the triangle next to ~/Library/Logs to reveal some sub-folders. One should be called "CrashReporter". Open it and click on one of the crash logs. Each one should have a section like this:
    Thread 0 Crashed:
    0 <<00000000>> 0xfffeff10 objcmsgSendrtp + 16

    3 libobjc.A.dylib 0x909c0670 class_initialize + 300Copy and paste the crashed thread here and maybe we can figure out what common thing is crashing.

  • When I convert my pdf doc to word, the fonts go really weird and it also puts some text into boxes. when I try to select the test and change the font, it does not change it properly?

    When I convert my pdf doc to word, the fonts go really weird and it also puts some text into boxes. when I try to select the text and change the font, it does not change it properly? This is making it impossible to amend.

    Hi Janedance1,
    If the PDF that you converted already has searchable text, please try disabling OCR as described in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (OCR) when converting PDF to Word or Excel. (If the PDF was created from a scanned document and doesn't already have searchable text, disabling OCR isn't a great option, as the text won't be searchable/editable in the converted Word doc.)
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Report S_ALR_87012341Duplicate invoices have started to appear on the repor

    There is a Report S_ALR_87012341 for Duplicate invoices verification.
    The Report S_ALR_87012341 is not working correctly. 
    Duplicate invoices have started to appear on the report for the first time.
    These documents are however 2 years old and have now been archived.
    It appears that the documents are only on the report once the archiving of the document has taken place.
    We need to understand why the report is not showing these documents as we use this as one of our controls in AP. 
    Kindly help the approach that is required to resolve this issue.

    Look at the authorizations , use SU53 to find out missing authorizations .
    Else , look up for your basis counterpart - to take a trace of the same to find out the exact bug.

    Yes, all I can tell you is that Finder does not have that function in ML. Your system is "working as expected".

    Can you help me?????

    Hello Charleen,
    It sounds like you are unable to reinstall iTunes because of this error message 7. I recommend the troublehsooting found in the following article that mentions that error named:
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows Error 126)”
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling
