Cursor jumps out of the sentence or back a few spaces or words.

When I type a sentence on my Dell Inspiron 1525, the cursor will jump back a few spaces or words and cause spelling mistakes.  This happens with all programs on my computer, as well as on the internet.  Any ideas?

You can update the drivers for the touchpad.

    Vista, why my cursor jumps around on the screen without reason?

    You are using a laptop with a touchscreen?  Chances are good that you accidentally touch the touchpad while typing, and that moves the cursor.  Go to start / Control Panel / mouse and see if there are controls for adjusting the sensitivity of the touchpad or to disable the touchpad while typing.  Go to the web site of the manufacturer of your and download the latest device drivers, firmware, and software for touchpad you and your mouse (if you also have a mouse - you may have to go the manufacturer of the mouse for these drivers, if she did not come with the system).  New updates can offer options that did not exist before like the ones I mentioned.

    This happened to me also and I bought a separate mouse and disabled the touchpad and the problem disappeared - but he had me past for awhile until I finally figured it out by typing differently (with my hands up higher so the Palms do not touch and had no problem).  Even if this isn't the problem, update the drivers, firmware or software can solve the problem on its own.

    If none of the works above, we will need either to run a complete troubleshooting procedures (post back and I'll meet with them) or the touchpad or mouse is defective and must be replaced.  You can discuss these last with the computer manufacturer when you talk to them (if you talk to them).

    I hope this helps.  If you have any questions along the way, come back and I'll do my best to answer.

    Good luck!

  • Re: Mouse cursor jumps all over the documents on Satellite

    Bought my Satellite in August 08. Cursor jumps all over the document, a spreadsheet, or a text document.
    I saw messages that the problem existed on Toshibas in 2002!

    How to solve this problem?
    How can this company having the same problem since 65 years?
    I would not buy another Toshiba.

    Help.

    > How this company may have the same problem since 65 years?
    Nice and funny statement. Really funny. I don't me remember more that this computer has developed there is 65years :D

    First of all, it would be really useful if post you a few details on your OS and your laptop model

    Secondly, I have read similar questions might appear if you accidentally touch the surface of the touchpad while typing. That is why it s advisable to disable the touch pad using the FN + F9 key and to check if this problem still persists.

    Last but not Lea check if you are using the latest version of the BIOS. If this isn't the case, then update it!

    Good bye

  • Alienware X 51 R3 - 10 Windows left out of the game after only a few hours back in the Office

    I noticed that, while playing the Steam on Windows 10 games, it will be alt + tab out of the game and back in the office. I then click on the game in the taskbar to get back in. It's quite annoying, as it happens at the most inopportune time.

    It produces about 3 hours or more. I have not installed anything new outside Chrome.

    Any ideas on what the service is the cause?

    It turns out it was Dell SupportAssist.

    I disabled this in services, but apparently it is still ongoing.

    I turned off the notification of controls for everything in SupportAssist and that fixed the problem with her kicking back the Windows desktop.

    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:

  • Windows jump out of the screen and an external monitor

    I have an external monitor connected to my MacBook Air.  When I turn off the external monitor (MacBook cover is already closed at that time) and return hours later to turn on the monitor, I find most of my windows have been dispersed (jumped) off the screen.  It occurs on multiple applications: terminal, iMail, browser Chrome, Preview, etc...  I usually find the window peeking out of the side of the screen - a small shard of window - and I have to drag it to the center of the screen.  I have to do for almost all windows (again not all windows to do this).  Its very annoying.  Any ideas on what is the cause?

    I am running v10.11.1 El Capitan (B 15, 42) on MacBook Air (13 inch, mid 2013).  External monitor is Dell.

    I forgot to mention.  It happens all of a sudden... eventually after the upgrade to El Capitan?  (but I am not sure).

    He used to do this permanently on Yosemite.

  • My cursor jumps all over the screen while typing.

    Original title: TYPING PROBLEM

    MY CURSOR JUMPS AROUND WHEN I TAPE. I DID A SCAN BUT NO HELP.

    Ok. I use a Dell computer. I can only show how I do in my Dell computer.

    Basically, you need to perform the settings with touchpad you. He is too sensitive. When you start typing, you touched the touchpad inadvertently, and moved the cursor.
    Here's how I'd do...

    Right-click on a free space of the desktop > customize > mouse pointers > (this is where if you do not have a Dell PC, you may not be able to follow. But you should have an idea right after that).

    I click Dell Touchpad tab > Device Select > I would like to either click on 'Disable' under the Touchpad > or put a check mark on "Disable Touchpad when external mouse usb is present." > OK

    Another method >
    Click Touchpad > Touchpad settings > under tactile sensitivity, move the slide to the RIGHT (heavy)
    > OK

  • My computer jumps out of the window active and videos full screen, (youtube/movies on computer)

    My problem is that whenever I'm not moving my mouse, my window random active jumps

    EX: the top on my active windows bar is black, then all of a sudden it wobbles a bit, and all of a sudden his gray, almost it has been disabled as long as the active window. Another example is, if I have Mozilla and spotify open, if you have spotify as active window, the screen jumps and suddenly, spotify is "behind" the mozilla window.

    and as far as movies go, I is not serious if his youtube or movies on my computer I can go full-screen in normal mode, he jumps out of it.

    so my question is how can I fix it, I've already updated everything so there is nothing wrong with my cards

    I thought about it, I suspect me that 1 of my desktop gadgets was perhaps to blame, I had 3 gadgets. Notepad, weather, and a cpu monitor. so I took the time and CPU monitor and now the jumping has stopped for now. I thought I would respond with this answer in case anyone else has this problem so that you can ask them if they have gadgets active which changes every few seconds as my CPU meter does help. I want to thank you for the time you put in to help and I am very pleased with your customer service.

  • 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.

    There seems to be no reason for my cursor for this. It does every second or sometimes every three seconds. I looked in the control panel to see if there is a way to fix it and I couldn't find anything.

    Just for troubleshooting try to use another generic driver with Device Manager.

  • Changing the cursor for a helping hand in the text and you cannot change the sentence or paragraphs in boxes to listen audio mode

    In Acrobat Reader if you're going to see menu and scroll all the way to ' Read out Loud ' and activate it, you can listen to the texts.  And you can also take the blinking cursor and click on the sentence or paragraph and a box turns around the sentence or paragraph and reads within the selected text.  But in Acrobat DC the cursor flashing in the text box has changed to a f * k * g hand grabber and you stop to select whatever it is!  How can we change back the hand f * k * grabber g in a cursor blinking so I can choose the text I want to listen or to highlight or mark?  Can someone help me on this?

  • Jump out of structures case otherwise than by the STOP

    Hello

    I have a VI where I first select one of the three switches to read of different thickness. At the time when each gauge is selected, a case structure is selected and the data of this calibre until you press stop. There is no way within the VI to change the mid flow as it gauges without first stop and restart and save the file again. I would like to be able to press another button of meter and the software automatically continue daat of the different gauge registration.

    To do this, I need to jump out of the Central case structure and back to the beginning. How can I do this?

    In addition, in each case structure there is a facility to backup data, so by jumping out of the structure of the case and in another he will ask a new file name and save a new file new. I need to put the SAVE queue outside the structure of the case. Is there a quick and easy way to do this?
