Cursor jumping to random in text tasks when I type

• cursor jumps around on the page, particularly when you type in gmail

  Hi wonder if anyone can help. When I type in gmail the cursor randomly jumps to different parts of the page without me touching the touchpad or buttons. My palms are based next to the touch pad but it sees enough to cause problems. I noticed that if I raise my palms to their resting place, the problem goes away, but it is a very uncomfortable way to type. Does anyone else have this problem, or more importantly, someone at - he found a solution? Sounds like a faulty design for me.

  Thanks Mark

• Windows 8 cursor jumps in the existing text and continues to type here rather than the finish line that I am on, anyone else spotted the same thing?

  Just upgraded to Windows 7 to 8, using MS Office Word 2010, worked well on Win 7, but now type text and the cursor suddenly jumps into the existing text and continues typing, rather than the finish line that I'm on.  Thought, I was accidentally touched for touch pad or other keys, so now consciously look for this but can find nothing on my part.  Have experienced it before with a processor OS Linux and Open Source, when the OS has been updated.  Think there may be a loophole to WIN 8.  It also happens when keying in the screens like this, that has happened twice while here. Someone else spotted the same thing?  Or is it just me?

  Also, anyone know how to disable "Open Tap" on the Mouse touchpad of the notebook, its annoying, I could disable in WINDOWS 7 but cannot know how Win8.

  Thank you very much for your help, the setting was not really there, but you gave me the name of the device, so I was able to download the right driver from

  http://www.Synaptics.com/resources/drivers

  above mentioned just in case anyone has the same problem. The site recommend to go with the hardware vendor's website, but ASUS has wrong driver, one of the above works fine.

  Its such a relief to be able to settle this problem - THANK you

  Lets see if it sorts the problem MS Office too.

• Re: Tecra M11 - cursor jumps to random locaation when entering

  Does anyone know how to turn off the trackpad when you use a mouse, or advise on what the problem is - when I type happily away and I'm fast enough, I suddenly find I type in the middle of what I typed already, instead of at the end of the line as usual. I can't work if there is interference from the trackpad, or I'm hitting something else in error! I tried to turn off the trackpad by using Fn F9, but it doesn't seem to work... there at - it another way to disable it?

  Congratulations to all!

  Akuma is right. Turn off the touch pad using the FN + F9 key combination and check if it happens again.

• Cursor jumps around for typing text in random places

  This never happened with my previous laptop so I was wondering if I was leaning on the touchpad too, I kept reducing the sensitivity, but it was useless.

  According to me, so although I made this post I could have solved the problem because it happened not once since I wrote this post, just so the snacks, it helps someone else:

  Double-click the icon in the status bar > Advanced tab > avancΘs features > lower-right Settings > Tapping settings > operations during key entry. I checked this and left the slider in the Middle for now. Then Applied and Okayed off windowns 1 million. It SEEMS to have stopped for the time being it.

  Hope this helps anyone else having the same problem, certainly, he stopped my cursor floating about the place while I'm typing. If anyone has any other ideas, I'm happy to hear also.

  Hello

  In the past we had here on this forum several similar messages and in most cases, everything was OK after you turn off the touchpad.
  Touchpad can be disabled with the FN + F9 key combination.

• Problems of blackBerry Smartphones when you type text messages

  for several months now my cursor was jumping about all over the place when I type a text message.  It also random symbols as if I was using the sym key which I was not. Cursor may jump up to a received message, to smiley or anywhere in typed message.  I adjusted the ball tracks, performed diagnostic tests and is reset by removing battery when turned on without result.  phone is clean and never got wet. At whits end? Someone else had this problem?

  Hello and welcome to the community!

  If you are certain that there is no intrusion of humidity of 100% (honestly, what you describe seems decidedly like that... but still), so I recommend that you try to start safe mode:

  • KB17877 How to start a smartphone BlackBerry in Mode safe

  It will take several attempts to get the combination of keys ESC (press/release/hold) OK, so be patient. When properly in Safe Mode, thinking... what happened just before this behavior started? A new application? An update? A theme? Something else? Think carefully that the slightest change can be causal... and try to undo all that was.

  Good luck and let us know!

  My cursor jumps to random places on the screen or active links as I type.  This product to any program I am.  I have acer (aspire 5315) and have never had this problem until the last month.  I pass the automatic updates of windows. I read through many of the solutions to similar questions on this issue, but I am still jumping on the screen.  I tried to update, roll back all the drivers, but still no luck?  Can you help me or should I buy a MAC?

  I hate windows 7 he steals what you type and live really striking. I spent a lot of time writing this has it's here to help u away.can

  Hi Darla

  As a temporary solution, you can always use the universal "Undo" shortcut is Ctrl + Z. As soon as you see the text disappears, you can press this time of mutiple shortened to go back a few steps.

  You can also use the shortcut 'Redo', Ctrl + Y, if you go too far with cancellations.

  If you use a laptop, one of the most frequent causes of the text that disappears, the cursor jumping around to change the line where you type, etc., is a problem with the Touchpad.

  You can disable the Touchpad while you type to see if that solves the problem. Here are links to the most popular brands of laptops with information on disabling the touchpad.

• When you type in a text field on a Web site, why the cursor jumps behind the already typed text?

  This problem only occurs when text is entered into a form on site (not in the address bar). The cursor jumps randomly a letter to the left, thus making it rather impossible entry.

  Device: HTC Vision Android 2.2 (= HTC Desire Z in North America)

  This is a bug that will be fixed in the RC version. If you're OK with putting on the installation from "unknown sources" in the application settings. The nightly build will have this work http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/nightly/latest-mozilla-central-android-r7/fennec-4.0b6pre.multi.eabi-arm.apk else use the software keyboard to this release.

• When you type the text, be it in Word on the e-mail message, the cursor jumps or segmet of the text disappears

  When entering text, the cursor jumps, causing the text segment to be often lost or misplaced.  Occurs during the preparation of Word file, but also in E-mail mode

  Laptop with a touchscreen, by chance?  Easy to do on a laptop as if tapping is enabled on the touchpad; your hands can easiy brush the touchpad causing the cursor to move and position of entry to change.
