• The cursor moves randomly when you type the new e-mail message

  When I type an e-mail message in Windows Live Mail, the cursor will suddenly be at the beginning of my message, or maybe in the middle of a Word.  I don't know if I'm a touch that I'm not aware of, or if I have a fault with my keyboard.

  Hello lobelia 3206,.

  Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

  Since you're on a laptop, I suppose that you have a right of trackpad under the keyboard. It may be that you hit the trackpad with your wrist or Palm when you type.

  Try to change the sensitivity of the mouse and see if that helps or if you have a setting to disable the trackpad when you type. I have

  Click Start, control panel and select slider and change your settings in there...

  I don't know where the settings would be for the Compaq Presario but you can always check with the manufacturer to get the correct settings for your laptop.

  I hope this helps.

• Cursor moves automatically while you type

  Original title: when typing (particularly e-mail), if I stop typing a few moments my cursor rolls over all email.

  The cursor sometimes jumps to the area of topic, the position of the sender of the previous one, in the middle of a sentence, at the end of the email - you see the idea.  Indeed, the cursor jumped just to the 'previous' word at the end of the word "cursor" at the time I was typing.

   

  Hi mimi,

   

  When you type, the cursor automatically goes to different places.

   

  The question may be due to the corrupted drivers.

   

  1 did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  2. What is brand and model computer?

  3. using a laptop or desktop?

  4. using a wireless mouse?

  5. have you ever tried to disconnect and reconnect the mouse?

   

  I suggest you follow the steps mentioned below:

   

  Method 1: update the driver mouse

   

  See the site:

  Updated a hardware driver that is not working properly

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/update-a-driver-for-hardware-that-isn ' t-work correctly

   

  Method 2:

   

  If it is a laptop, you can try to decrease the sensitivity of the touch pad, a desk with an optical mouse to try to keep it on a rough surface or try to reduce the sensitivity of the mouse.

   

  Refer to the section to change how the mouse pointer works in the site:

  Change the settings of the mouse

  I hope this helps. If the problem persists, let know us and we would be happy to help you.

• How can I stop my cursor jumping around while you type

  The cursor jumps around while I type.  Sometimes what I just typed disappears.

  I'll guess that you are using a laptop with a touchpad? If Yes, go to control panel and see if you can adjust the sensitivity of it, because chances are you're grazing while typing.

  I hope this helps.

  My laptop can open internet explore properly, the cursor may work when you tap the address space to type a Web site, but the site it does not point to the search space to find anything except the right button. What is the problem? Harry

• Why the cursor jump to other places when you type?

  When you type, the cursor jumps to other lines or words, sometimes jumps 2 or 3 lines.  In addition, when you use arrow down, he jumps at the end of the page, instead of 2 or 3 lines of scrolling.

  Operating system is Vista, SP2, Dell Vostro A860.  Problem occurs especially during the seizure of the e-mail program.  I don't remember not all changes made on the PC, however, suddenly it was happening more often, so could increase after having chosen the system restore to return to a different restore point.  After the announcement of this issue, I've seen in many cases of this problem in the Microsoft Forums and after those suggestions concerning the sensitivity of the touchpad, I changed the sessions for Tablet and I think my problem is resolved.

  Hello

  You use a desktop or laptop computer?

  Is the mouse a mouse wired or wireless?

  What is the brand and model of the computer and the mouse?

  If you are using a laptop, I suggest to change the sensitivity of the mouse pad.

  If this is a wireless mouse it might be interference from another close to the mouse. Make sure that speech recognition is not enabled.

  Hello

  Laptop?

  Check with the manufacturer of system support, documentation in line, or forums as there
  probably are shortcut keys that enable and disable the touchpad functions.

  Parameters for TouchPad located in the control panel - mouse (there may be several tabs with)
  Entries of TouchPad) and some have a utility that loads in the Notification area near clock on
  at the bottom right. There "may" be the sensitivity settings.

  ==========================================

  If necessary: (make sure that you have restarted at least once, if the above did not work) try to update
  the driver for the TouchPad.

  Panel of configuration-Device Manager - mice and pointing devices - Double click on touch pad
  -Pilot Tab - click on Update Driver (which is may not make anything like MS is far behind certifying)
  (drivers), now right CLICK on the touchpad and UNINSTALL.

  Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in).
  RESET

  This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB. This does not prevent the touchpad
  of work.

  The similar procedure on XP, Windows 7 and Vista is the same, except that we need to clear
  the device if it is present.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310575

  Then go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest touchpad drivers.

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.

  =================================

  This utility also allows to control the TouchPad:

• Cursor jumps to another part of the page or the screen when you type

  Hello

  When you type on the keyboard of my laptop cursor will go to a random part of the page or the screen and keep tapping on what I already typed.

  I had this problem with a Dell Inspiron, and they provided a patch with has been for the Bios or the touchpad.

  Is this a common fault with the Toshiba. I've seen some messages referring to disable the touchpad. However I don't think that this is a solution to the problem and Toshiba should provide a fix.

  Does not at any time have my finger on the touchpad while I was seized.

  Hope that answers.

  Huw.

  Hello

  As Christopher said use FN + F9 key combination to disable the touchpad. If the problem persists you should contact the Service partner. I'm sure they have more experience with it.

• When you type, the cursor jumps around. How can I correct this situation?

  When you type, the cursor jumps around.  How can I correct this situation?

  It is a very common problem when users become familiar with a new laptop. Either your palm/wrist/cuff/bracelet is touching the touchpad as you type or the touch pad sensitivity is set too high and reacts to strong strikes.
  • Someone to watch you while you type to see if you accidentally touch touchpad of the notebook.
  • Go to the control panel mouse configuration and reduce the sensitivity of the touchpad.
  • Make sure you use the latest version of the driver from the manufacturer of the laptop for the touchpad and update if a new becomes available.
  • Disable the touchpad entirely in favor of a wireless laptop mouse.
  As noted previously, this is a very common problem and users are usually completely unaware they do even when it is pointed out to them.

• Problems with the cursor when you type

  I don't know if it's something in Vista, but I have terrible problems in Word and when typing emails. I can touch type and normal type without looking at the screen. However, I find when I look at the screen, the cursor inexplicably himself stuck about4-6 rear lines and hit the last piece in the middle of the existing text. In fact it just happened again - when I type ing he climbed to the title: why!

  I feel responsible because I don't get it in the older microsoft software that I use at work and it has never done in internet cafes - didn't have it a few months, but it drives me crazy: why it does this?

  Patjom, make sure that you do not have to hide when you type the value of the mouse pointer. Here are the steps:

  Open mouse by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, clicking hardware, and then clicking on the mouse.
  Click the Pointer Options tab, and then do one of the following:
  Uncheck the Hide pointer while typing Rami

• You can move the inserted text to a different location on the picture, if yes how?  How can I put the character and the Panel clause up in the photo shop when you type test?

  You can move the inserted text to a different location on the picture, if yes how?  How can I put the character and the Panel clause up in the photo shop when you type test?

  Yes.  I find it easier to type text, and then use the move tool (shortcut V) (looks like an arrow) to place it where you want.

  To bring up the character and paragraph panels go to WINDOW > CHARACTER or WINDOW > PARAGRAPH.

  I hope this helps.
