Cursor disappears when entering, the window is not active.

I have Vista home SP2.
When I type the cursor disappears and the typing stops. The window is not active until I'm clicking on it again. It's as if it times out.
I thought it was just Firefox, but that's all. I watched q. similar, but nothing. It has been since the last update, or just before, then, either, about 3 days.

  • Control arrays disappear when closing the window .uir

    Using LabWindows/CVI 2010, I created a program of simple test with a panel containing a couple of buttons push, three tumbleurs and three control LED. I can create arrays of controls containing the toggle switches and/or LEDs in the .uir editor and access in the program, but when I close the .uir editing window and reopen the .uir file, control arrays are gone from the .uir file and of course when I rebuild the program I can't access it. This happens if I leave LW/CVI entirely or if I just close the editor of .uir. If I explicitly the file .uir after creating tables, everything seems fine, but then when I close the .uir window I see an asterisk briefly appear in the tab of the file name, as if it is modify the file, and then re-register on the goal.

    I can duplicate this just creating one or two control panels and by closing the window. Sets disappear, even though I explicitly save the .uir file after I created them. Is there something I can do to prevent this?

    Thank you

    Brian.

    It seems that your UIR may have have been saved for an earlier at some point.  If you open the UIR and look in the lower right corner, you say 'file UIR 2010'?  "Otherwise, you need to click on File ' Save *.uir as and save the UIR under a 2010 UIR.

    If you choose to save the IUR for an earlier version, CVI remembers this decision and always saves the IUR for than the previous version.  You will have to explicitly choose to save them for the current version.

    Let me know if this does not fix things for you-

  • Sound stops when the window is not active

    I have an above (VO) voice that reads the text on a screen. As the VO happens at certain points (cuepoints) more text appears. I have a glossary of popup (dialogMIAW) that appears when the user clicks on a word in the text. So far so good. If the user clicks on a Word and the glossary opens the text continues and cuepoints are points are achieved more text appears. In other words, the program continues - which is what I want. BUT when you click on a button in the glossary of close, sounds and text stop - this is not what I want. I don't know why this happens because in this glossary MIAW are word hyperlink that the user can also click on that open upward more Windows Glossary - just like I want. It's the close button which seems to stop the sound and inturn the text (as a cuepoint is no longer reachable). This could be the cause and how can I make the noise from the stadium to continue even if the user clicks the close button?

  • The mouse cursor disappears when iTunes movie go full screen

    This isn't a question... actually I found a hack solution to this bug and I wanted to share it with other people having the same problem.

    Since the upgrade of the OS X El Capitan, I'm having a problem with my cursor disappears randomly. It is very repetitive if I start a video in iTunes with the enlarged screen and the cursor disappears. Indeed, after entering mode full-screen, iTunes mask the cursor of the mouse that is predictable. The problem is that iTunes may not reappear there again once, for example, when I go to another office for a temporary job.

    Move the mouse does nothing, escaping mode full screen does not come back. It is very annoying. Like I had never had such a frustrating experience prior to a new installation of El Capitan 10.11.3 and update iTunes to 12.3.3, I thought that this is due to the update to iTunes. So, I made another new facility of El Capitan, this time without updating iTunes. But the problem still exists. It is interesting that I had this problem on my MacBook Pro 17 "end 2011 and not with my iMac 21.5" mid-2009!

    After a little research, I found that this bug is not because of El Capitan, and happened randomly in the other years dating back to Tiger and maybe before.

    Only new change I had made in my MBP Preferences system , was in the part of accessibility, and it was related to Zoom. I had always used this feature, but I put the Zoom Style 'full-screen'. This time (after the new installation of El Capitan), I had changed to 'Picture-in-Picture'.

    I changed the Style of zoom "full screen" even once, and the problem resolved.

    If this does not work for you, can be debilitating, other options, such as 'Use keyboard shortcuts to zoom' or 'Use of scrolling with keys of change to zoom movements,' can solve the problem.

    We all know that it is a bug, and he has been there for a long time. I found that many people had reported it to Apple, but the problem persists.

    For those of you who want to use the zoom "Picture-in-Picture" style, or set the zoom style full screen does not solve the problem of their mouse disappears, I will mention a few ways to recover the mouse cursor. The following solutions are applied to a mouse cursor disappeared after entering the movie to iTunes (or any other application) full screen.

    1. Move the mouse until the switching Office brings back the cursor. Now, you can switch the desktop computer and do whatever you want. (It's easier work, at least for me).
    2. Use Alt - Tab to switch to another program; This will bring the mouse cursor.
    3. Press Ctrl + F2 to activate the Apple menu. (You can also move your cursor away to top left and click to activate the menu.)
    4. Press Ctrl + up arrow (or swipe up with 4 fingers on the touchpad) to activate the control of the Mission.

    You can also find other ways to retrieve the cursor of your mouse.

    Hope this can help you with the mouse pointer disappears.

    In MBP El Capitan the pointer of the mouse is where you assign to ' picture in picture ' or 'full screen '.

    If you miss your mouse pointer, accessibility-> display "Shake mouse to locate" check to find your mouse pointer. It should be there.

    Note: you have posted in the discussion of the Mavericks, should have used the ElCapitan discussion...
