  I have an iMac (27 "3.5 ghz i7 QuadCore - 3 TB FD - 4 GB NVidia GTX - Yosemite 10.10.5).

  This is the mouse cursor has recently started to jump and clicking randomly. I searched the internet and this Council extensively, and then I find a lot of those who suffer from this problem, I can't find a coherent solution.

  • This happens regardless of the mouse I use.
    • It happens with No mouse and no keyboard.
  • He can't start, but starts happening after 5 minutes and gradually gets worse.
    • Think this is heat, I installed TGPro to monitor the temperature; nothing seems to be very hot.

• Old iMac is unusably slow

  OK, I know that my old iMac is done towards the end of his life and I use my 2nd Mac now, but this iMac (version 7.1, dating back to mid-2007) is now almost unusably slow, in the respect that it takes a few minutes running until I can move the cursor. The browser takes about 20 minutes to start up and just try to click on the buttons in dialogue to confirm actions causes the beachball to appear. He runs the last Mac OSX (El Capitan), all this so far. The memory is maxed out at 4 GB and it is around 80 GB of available disk space. He was one good horse to battle, using Photoshop and other. Now, he struggles to open TextEdit.

  I ran utility disk to check problems (there is not) as well as caches, etc, to try to optimize the performance of compensation. I think the best solution now is to do a clean install. What would be the best way to do this? I have 10.6 disk (my mac still has an optical drive), I could do a clean install on, and then update again to 10.11, backup of data and my Time Machnine backup applications. Or I'd be best to just do a restore from Time Machine and does not return to 10.6?

  What is the best procedure?

• Portege Z30-A-191 - the cursor starts to move by itself

  Hello. I have a problem with the touchpad: sometimes (but quite often) the cursor starts to move by itself in a diagonal direction. Finally he stops, moving independently, but the problem can resume later. When the problem occurs, the notebook computer becomes unusable.

  I ask a technician here at my work, focus on the problem, and he said that the drivers are up to date.

  Is there any solution for this?

  Can you please do a little test. Remove the driver for the touchpad from the system and check its operation with "standard driver. Please send us comments.

• Portege R600 - the touchpad cursor is out of control

  I have problems with the touchpad on a Portégé R600 running Windows 7.
  The cursor is out of control.

  When I'm scrolling a page and you have to push the slider on the page, the screen scrolls down out of control.
  Sometimes I can fix it up by double tapping the touchpad, but also often, it does not work.

  When I type the cursor will jump to another area of the page and insert the typing it.
  The combination of these problems sometimes makes the laptop almost unusable.

  I noted that several forum users have brought up the variations of this problem, but received no response.

  Anyone can shed light on how to fix?

  Hello

  I think that it s a temporal question regarding the sensitivity of the touchpad settings and the Microsoft windows OS.

  First, you must change the settings for the touchpad as PalmCheck sensitivity and sensitivity to touch.
  You can do this in Control Panel-> mouse-> tab-> settings the touchpad device settings

  In addition, you must make sure that the operating system is clean and that some background process don't affect the functionality of the touchpad. In many cases the touchpad don't work properly because of system overhead.
  Clean the registry with CCleaner, don't disable some no necessary process in msconfig and at least update the touchpad drivers.

• Cursor jumps after automatic update of Windows

  I had work Dell for several hours trying to solve my cursor jumping while typing on my less than 1 year Inspiron.  Before everyone wasting my time, my palms are far from my touchpad.

  I looked for a long time and it seems to be the result of an auto-update Vista and it the effects of the PC for many suppliers.

  My Dell is now unusable.  I can work is no longer home to use it and I need to fix.

  Is there a resolution of Microsoft for this bug?  I had to modify this message 4 times during typing because the cursor jumped.

  Hello
   
  Looks like there could be some problems with the drivers.
   
  First of all I suggest you to reduce hardware acceleration and check if the problem occurs.
   
  To reduce the hardware acceleration follow the steps below:
  1. right click on desktop
  2. choose Customize
  3. Select display settings
  4. click on advanced settings
  5. Select the torubleshoot tab, then click on change settings
  6. in the window, you'll have a slider to reduce the cursor and check
   
  Also you can try to uninstall and reinstall the driver of the computer display

  You can also try to restore the computer to the previous working state by restoring the system
  Steps to complete the restore of the system:
  1. close and save documents that you have open.
  2. click on the Start button to open your Start Menu. The Start button looks like this:
  3. when the Start Menu open click the menu option all programs.
  4. click the Start Menu Accessories group once.
  5. click the System Tools Start Menu Group once.
  6. click once on the icon of the system restore. After you click the icon, if a user account control window opens, click on the button continue.
  You will now be on the System Restore screen. From this screen, you can specify the restore point that you want to restore.

  It may be useful
   
  Thank you

• Cursor moves on its own

  Periodically, my cursor moves on its own and has been a problem for a few weeks now.

  Initially, he started with the built-in cursor not only movement erratic but also stuck in place on the right side to her screen/only up and down. To try to solve this problem, I started using a USB mouse to see that the problem persisted except that I've been able to move the cursor on the screen even though it move independently (by clicking on the icons and other, however, continued to be difficult).

  It feels like this question started out not the case.

  Here's what I tried to solve the problem (takes the chips of another user and added on):

  Change of mouse did not help (the problem persisted with USB mouse and wireless with new batteries in wireless)

  * The mouse software update did not help

  * Move the mouse or its sender to another USB port wireless did not help

  * Restore the computer to a restore point of verified (2 weeks ago) before the problems started never did not help

  * Reset did not help

  * Turn off an extended display and performing a single monitor (or the other) did not help

  Pointing device settings change of rather fast for its slow response seems to have it actually move slightly slower, but it has not solved the problem and the rest largely unusable a lot of the time.

  * To control the cursor in safe mode (works fine)

  * Done a virus scan (computer is clean)

  * Made a clean boot

  * Ran troubleshoot on built-in cursor and mouse USB (or came with all the problems)

  * Check properties on devices and the results say that the two are "works properly."

  * Uninstalled and reinstalled the program for the device

  Any help is greatly appreciated!

• ReaderCEF - Win10 birthday - CPU hog, wait until the cursor in other applications

  Since then on the anniversary update for win 10 Pro on My Book of Surface with screen seriously scaling, the reader has been a problem. Monitor performance status bar icons show about 50% of each processor in use, and the heat speed fan and screen confirm at least that much. App resource monitor says he uses about 12% CPU, but it uses so it takes more than a minute ResMon to fill all the information at all. The task manager says more than 30%.

  While this is the case, the cursor inside the drive is normal but do scroll down on any other app or Windows itself, and you get a "pulsed" permanently hourglass wait cursor. Other applications will continue to function, although slowly.

  In process Explorer (Sysinternals), there are two processes drive and the three ReaderCEF process. The average CEF process seems to be the problem, although ProcExp says he uses only 3% of CPU. It cannot recover the nets or any other stats detailed for this process, or the Canadian Expeditionary corps below. (I suspect that whatever the causes you will avoid also resource monitor to see all the CPU player is hogging.) Pointing to the name of the process is alternating the message "device does not" next with long command shown in the following screenshot:

  

  Notice how the name of the company disappears with swapping between the full report and the error of path. I guess that the flashes of full report about once per second on ten times for each momentary appearance of the error message. Note also this player instance was called by my EverDesk mail program; Player has the same problems, if it is started on its own.

  

  In the Panel from bottom of ProcExp, there is a continuous stream of new and updated events to death:

  

  And a continuous stream of mostly non-existent processes:

  

  All this makes the reader almost unusable! Maybe it's the way of Microsoft to promote their own PDF applications? I tried to do with them, but they lack several features that I need. Please, how can I get the drive working again?

  Hey Loren,

  We have released the new version and it should solve your problem.

  Please update your adobe through Help software-> check the updates...

  Please let me know if you still experience the problem after the update.

• Lightroom unusable 2016.6 of the slow

  The last update broke Lightroom and unusuably slow rendering. It's the way past "atrocious", it is really unusable. Simple tasks like cropping simply do not work anymore, every movement of the cursor with one of nodes requires a second 30 update and is therefore more possible to watch the cursor movement and rectangle in real time. Nothing has changed on my computer, the system is all that day, the only thing that has changed is the last update CC.

  Photoshop seems to work normally, even if she seems incapable of Comet of panoramas of several lines in auto mode.

  Back to Lightroom 6.5.1/Lightroom CC 2015.5.1

  Follow these instructions (where it says Lightroom 6.1.1/Lightroom CC 2015.1.1 claim he says Lightroom 6.5.1/Lightroom CC 2015.5.1)

  How do I roll back to Lightroom 2015.1.1 or Lightroom 6.1.1? Lightroom Queen

• Unusable Cineware of the slow, spinning wheel between everything I do. Connection/TCP problem?

  Hi, I have problems with Cineware in AE CC 2014. If I create a new cinema 4 d of the file in a model, the whole program becomes unusably slow, a cursor of reel for 5 to 20 seconds-ish, whenever I have move the playback cursor or / select nothing in said computer, even things unrelated to the spinning Cineware layer. It's never worked normally on this machine, I only used it on my previous but used it without problems on other machines to work successfully. I don't get the error messages and everything works well.

  I did a lot of research on the AE forums and found some people with the same kind of problem, but very few with any solution at all, and this small number does not work for me. It seems from what I read it is probably a problem with the TCP communication between two apps/connection wait times, but nothing that I tried so far has helped.

  My specs:

  • last updated OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 with quicktime 10.4
  • iMac, retina 5 k, 32 GB of memory
  • After Effects CC 2014.2 (just installed 2015, briefly tried and had the same problem)
  • Cinema 4 d 16.038 Lite as installed with AE and fully implemented to date.

  As I suspect it is a TCP problem, change the TCP port ports in options of Cineware seems to be the obvious thing to do, but I'm not sure this ones different to use: I scanned for ports with network utility, that I can see the open hole only has 5 numbers and cineware options allow only a number registered 4-digit! When I tested it before I tried some pretty random 4-digit (purge all cache/memory and restart AE in the meantime) does not.

  Did not understand how I could go about opening/transfer a port and am not sure if it is still possible to do in OS X rather than the settings on my router to connect to the outside world...?

  I tried other things:

  • Turn off wifi (as shown here https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1877012) did not help
  • .. .or a permissions preference setting (as in ml http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2014/06/permissions-mac-os-start-adobe-applications.ht( )
  • permissions repaired in disk utility
  • Have tried to screw up the AE preferences and make a C4D file without altering any prefs, same problem persists.
  • Of OS X's firewall is off already so there is nothing to allow, (and I tried to turn on, but does not block anything) and I have no 3rd party security/firewall software.
  • I don't have QuickTime 3rd party to try to disable or components of the video hardware to disconnect.
  • Can't remember if I tried to log in as root when I tried to correct that earlier, will now make and update this shortly
  • Change the TCP port in the Cineware options (as described above)

  Let me know of ideas, any info would be much appreciated. It would be amazing to actually be able to use Cineware at all!

  Thank you!

  Just to let you know, it seems that the latest version of the software update Yosemite has corrected all that was the cause! So happy, but still don't know what was the problem exactly.

  On this other thread someone has reported that they have solved the same problem earlier by doing a clean install of Yosemite: CreativeCOW

• Examination of dynamic cursor and SQL performance

  Hello world
  
  I'm a researcher on internet forums and oracle for what is best for my case.
  
  
  I tried to rebuild indexes. I had two methods, both works very well, but I'm looking for which is preferable from the point of view of performance
  
  1 - the use of cursor as in the link below.
  
  http://www.think-forward.com/SQL/rebuildunusable.htm
  
  
  2 - using dynamic SQL, that generated the script file, then run it.
  
  coil rebuildall.sql
  Select "change the index ' |" owner: '. ' || index_name |' rebuild online; '
  from dba_indexes where status = "UNUSABLE."
  spool off;
  
  @rebuildall.sql
  
  
  Thanks in advance. Your help is appreciated.

  In both cases, that you use dynamic SQL statements, I think that there is no difference in terms of performance, use the method you feel most comfortable

  In all cases, you can follow the timestamps (time is set on & set timing on) and connect the outputs
