Cursor moves

Everytime I type something my cursor moves or went the way of scrolling page to the top, or move my cursor or in another word, and start typing there where it should. Just as he did in the last sentence where I have the word OR in bold. Ery This is what happened when I typed the word 'very', the cursor takes the form of places in the text, so do me constantly check for errors. This has occurred recently and I use a Dell Inspiron laptop. It's frustrating and thought microsoft could help.

Thank you

Katy

  • The cursor moves erratically even when no mouse connected

    I've had the problem for over a year now, but I never received tour to report. From time to time, my cursor moves erratic around the screen, jumping from position every few seconds. I have a MBP, but often use it plugged on a screen and mouse etc with the lid closed. The problem persists if Setup like that, even when the external mouse is disconnected, or when simply use it as a laptop. I recently wiped the hard drive and reinstalled a clean copy of Mac OS x from zero (no backup), but the problem still persists.

    Any ideas?

    Looks like a hardware problem. How old is this MBP? Sometimes, when they get older, the battery may start to inflate and put pressure on the trackpad.

  • When you type in Firefox, the cursor moves to the left while everything is written backwards.

    Recently, whenever I try to type so that Firefox 9.01, the cursor moves to the left while everything is written backwards. I can normally type into a word document to have done with it and cut and pasted in this message. I use Windows XP. I closed Firefox and restarted my computer twice with no success to solve this problem.

  • Satellite R850 - cursor moves at random while typing

    I use this R850 because it was provided by the work.
    I found it almost as frustrating as the HP, I got to my previous job... and it's for the same reasons!

    -The cursor moves randomly, then when typing I find I type completely in the wrong place.
    -It removes random pieces of my work - particularly frustrating on a web page where there is no "undo" button
    -When you use functions like drag in the editor, or highlight text, the touchpad is not always cooperative.
    -Some random/spaces etc. letters do not occur despite proper pressure.

    Quite frankly, it takes too much time to do things and I want to throw out of a dam in a deep lake.

    No liquid has been spilled on it.
    Are no crumbs in the keyboard.
    This seems to be a defective product as the "HP Elitebook" I got last year!

    This happened to me because I accidentally touched the touchpad while typing.
    In my case I could solve this annoying problem issue but the option settings: disable the touchpad while typing.

    This setting should be available in Control Panel-> mouse-> avancΘs

    The other option is to disable the touch pad using the function key

  • Satellite Pro A300 - the cursor moves continuously when connected an external mouse

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro A300. When I connect a mouse directly by USB the cursor moves constantly. I also have a mouse attached via a docking station, Toshiba and that works perfectly.

    It doesn't matter what USB port I use or if the laptop is connected to the docking station or not, or if it works on AC or on battery power.

    I thought it was the mouse that was the problem, so I went and bought a new one but the problem persists.

    Actually, while I wrote this post, he has stopped doing that and then started! Very frustrating.

    Can anyone help?

  • Satellite Pro 6100: cursor moves out of control on the screen

    Hey guys,.

    I'm seriously going crazy right about now... my problem is the following:

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro 6100, Windows XP Professional with SP2, memory: 512 MB.

    About two weeks ago my cursor began to move up and down whenever I pressed the space bar. It has gotten worse since. My cursor moves out of control across the screen (there are usually in the upper right or lower left) and I can not recover. I know for a fact that it has nothing to do with my external mouse (optical), because this problem also occurs when I use my pointing device. Even in safe mode.

    The thing I've tried:
    Ran Spybot: Search and Destroy
    Ran Adaware
    Xoftspy RAN
    A ran Symantic Antivirus 10 (complete analysis of the system in safe mode)
    New keyboard
    New motherboard

    Nothing helps. I'm this close to format my pc. Does anyone have a suggestion of what to do?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    I put t he understand. You have changed the keyboard and the motherboard, but you did not recover the OS with the Toshiba Recovery CD.
    The first procedure that you should do is the new installation of the OS before you change or replace anything on the laptop.

    Unfortunately, it is not easy to say why it occurs. A friend of mine has a similar problem with the cursor. The cursor has jumped on the screen and it was not possible to open applications. It has (or service) resolved with the replacement of keyboard.

    If the new installation OS doesn't fix this strange cursor, so I recommend you contact Toshiba.

  • Fire graphic cursor move event programmatically

    Is it possible to programmatically trigger the move bar graph event?  Assign a value to the Index of the cursor or the property node Cursor Position does not seem to do.

    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.

  • the cursor moves randomly

    When typing in word or e-mail cursor moves randomly to complicate typing. No tablet. Restore points did not help. Is it a hardware problem or software? Remove the battery did not help nor changes of parameters. Are there any simple .

    Hello JohnBevan,

    I suggest to try to plug a USB mouse and disable the touchpad to see if this problem is still happening.  If this happens then I suggest reinstalling the driver for the touchpad.  You can visit the website of your computer manufacturer for the latest drivers and updates.

    Thank you

  • Screen is scrolling down repeatedly and the cursor moves on its own.

    The cursor is rolling along of type I.m

    You do not give much information about what is really happening, but the first two points to check are the mouse and the keyboard, before looking for other hardware or software problems.

    If you have another mouse and keyboard available, you can try reverse the two and restart the computer to see if the problem persists.  If not a little more information would be needed before I could give advice on the best way to solve the problem.

    You're talking about the screen, scroll down and the cursor moving without the mouse - these are two separate actions.

    He is not anywhere on the screen do scroll down unless you have a running program - this scrolling happens with all programs that could scroll, or simply with a certain program?

    The cursor moves randomly or according to a specific orientation?  The cursor move around all the time or only in certain programs?

    These problems occur all the time, or only when you do something, like click with the mouse or use the scroll wheel?
