While typing the cursor will suddenly move to another sentence?

When typing a sentence on any page, the cursor will move to another part of the paragraph or sentence and start typing THERE. It happens EVERY TIME I use Firefox but never with IE7.

Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

Try these two steps:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM

When typing the cursor will stop typing and you willhaveto click again where you stopped and start over

When in a program (IE 11 or Word, Outlook, etc..) my User will begin typing. After a few characters the system will just stop accepting the typing. The User will have to Click in to the field to get the cursor back to the correct point & begin typing
from that point.
This seems to happen very frequently for all my users. We recently deployed new PCs with Win 7 32-byte on them to everyone. Has anyone seen this happen and have any remedy for it?
I have replaced the keyboard thinking that is the issue but upon further research I am leaning more toward it being a Windows 7 issue.

Hi,
This issue may be caused by the below reasons:
The mouse. The cursor missing from the current page may be caused by the mouse lost its focus point, this may because of the mouse itself or some other elements(Mouse pads and mouse drivers) which may affect
the function of the mouse. If laptops, please try to disable touch board.
Other applications. Please check if there are any applications(Usually some virus or scripts) running automatically when typing, some applications may call the cursor out when it starts.
Network connection. If you use the wireless network, please make sure the connection is well configured on the client side, check WLAN NICs and the driver.
The printer driver. In addition to this, please also verify the PC have all the other drivers up-to-date.
Please take a health check and update the anti-virus databases, if possible try a clean boot , also change a mouse and check the other aspects and see if the problem still exists.
Hope this may help,
Best regards
Michael

Using the magnify button in Ancestry.co.uk, the cursor will not move away from the actual record window. The only way to exit is Alt F4 which closes Firefox. When reloading, Firefox reactivates the same record but without the magnify button activated.

The magnify also does not function properly.

There is an easier work-around. Rather than closing the browser, completely, you just have to get the system to change the focus. You can do this by pressing ALT+TAB (to switch windows). Then, you can turn the magnify option off and just go with the Zoom. (There is a secondary problem, in that the last magnified section of the image stays magnified. Going back to the record and then back into the image will clear that. But at least you don't have to close the entire browser!)

Kerry03, welcome to the forum,
you probably need to reduce the sensitivity of the touchpad tapping function or turn it off in the touchpad properties. (Control Panel > Mouse).
You'll find a few more cases of this having happened if you search the boards .
Hope this helps

Cursor will not move

First, everything was working well for a few days, then it didn't. It connects and turns on fine (the menu is present and clear). I cannot move the cursor. It will not go up, down, left, right or back. When I try to reset the light blinks but I still cannot move the cursor. I have reset and unplugged. I have even tried using the remote for my iMac (after pairing). It will go to screen saver and there it stays until I goto TV or power down. I do not believe it is a remote issue. I repeat ... the cursor will not move. addendum - When I repress anything on the remote, the light blinks ... nothing else happens ... nothing. grrrrrrrrrr arg!

Fixed it - the pairing and unpairing was the key - once I realized I was looking for the number of blinks, I it worked out. I think it was opposite of the instructions but maybe I don't know my left from my right. Merry Christmas

HT4113 My daughters iPod touch asks for her pass code but when she types it in the cursor does not move or input any characters so,she cannot get into the iPod. This has suddenly happened for no apparent reason

My daughters iPod touch asks for her pass code but when she types it in the cursor does not move or input any characters so,she cannot get into the iPod. This has suddenly happened for no apparent reason, what can we do? Can anyone help please?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

AFTER SUBJECT IS TYPED IN THE CURSOR WILL NOT LET ME WRITE THE MESSAGE

WHEN SENDING AN E-MAIL, I CAN TYPE IN THE CONTACT PERSON AND THE SUBJECT, BUT THE CURSOR WILL NOT GO ANY FURTHER - THEREFORE, I CANNOT TYPE MY MESSAGE

1) Firefox 2.0.0.20 is no longer supported, and since you are using Windows Vista there are 3 newer versions of Firefox you can install - 2 of which are still supported.
2) Which '''web mail''' service are you using with Firefox?
Yesterdays Hotmail upgrade seems to have broken many things for Firefox users, regardless of which Firefox version is used. It's up to Microsoft to fix the problems they created with that update.

my Macbook Pro (OSX 10.6.7 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) has started misbehaving on me. When I'm working, the cursor will start spontaneously moving to the in a straight line, and randomly right clicking on things.
If I close the computer and open it back up, it sometimes stops for a little while, then will spontaneously start again. Any help would be truly appreciated. Thanks!

See this knowledge base article. Also, you might want to update to 10.6.8 (don't know that that will fix your problem, but it's the latest version of Snow Leopard).

HT203176 magic mouse cursor will not move

Magic Mouse cursor will not move. Scroll works. right click works replaced batteries

I'm so sorry but I overlooked your response in the previous post.
I think you there are two options to try.     One;
Reset the SMC (Systems management control)      https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201295 ....
Two: You may have a problem with interference which could be from a TV set, particularly one of the new smart TVs, anything electronic you've either moved into the room or changed its position.   That could include another mouse or trackpad.
Again, sorry.

Satellite L350 - Cursor will not move

My L350/L350D cursor will not move from middle of screen after boot up. All is good with system just with display sreen & icons.
Ideas please.

Hi
Im also a little bit confused the cursor can be moved either using the touchpad or USB mouse.
If the touchpad cannot be used, please check if its not disabled.
As mentioned by PinkPanther, the function FN + F9 enables and disables the touchpad.
But the cursor could be moved using mouse connected to USB ports.
So even if the touchpad is disabled, the USB mouse should control the cursor.

After I click system preferences to change my screensaver, it will say loading images and the cursor will be loading. How do i fix this ?

After I click system preferences to change my screensaver, it will say loading images and the cursor will be loading. How do i fix this to be able to change my screensaver and not have my computer do this?

Try system preferences>desktop,click desktop tab. Click the Apple folders, iPhoto, or folders. Click the pic you want on the icon, it should put the pic as your wallpaper. You can change the picture if you change picture if you click it and the time. Unless I don't understand your question. ATB
