Jumping mouse pointer and Vista "busy circle" using WMP

When I plug in a "memory stick" SanDisk, WMP trying to 'sync', 'something something '.  The mouse pointer and the Vista 'busy circle' jumping around.  I disabled the auto-start, I deleted the box "Start synchronization when the device connects" and I tried all the options in Sync Center.  WMP recognizes the different sizes of "memory sticks" and each is full.  Sometimes, the "memory sticks" shows in the library list.  I ended up the sync on a partnership, but this command is grayed out on the other.  The side "edit" of WMP sometimes shows the "memory stick" he said here drag the items to synchronize.  Sometimes the side "edit" of WMP says "connect the device.  Once in about 50 tries, WMP actually synchronize with the "memory stick".  I use the memory sticks for data transfer and storage only.  I NEVER want anything to synchronize!  I'm from the old (old, old, old read) school, so if I want something copied, I will use the copy command.  I've seen similar problems here and tried the solutions provided, unfortunately, nothing seems to work.  HELP PLEASE!
TYVM!

After the cohabitation on maybe 10 different forums, I came across an apparent solution.
Apparently, the "guilty" is the Portable device enumerator Service.
When I disabled it, my problems went away.

Follow this step to turn off the service.

1. click Start and type services.msc in the start search box and press on enter.

2. scroll through the list and select the service.

3. right click on the service and choose the Propertiesoption.

4. you can change the Startup type to disable or the status of the service to stop.

Good luck to all!

  • the mouse pointer and cursor of dysfunction, cannot type, cannot connect to my user account?

    OK, I'm not sure how succinctly describe the problem since it is composed of so many things that have actually made my computer useless. I think it's a virus, but my virus scan did not come with something useful, so.

    Last night I watch Youtube videos and edit some pictures when I noticed that I had to type on the touch pad repeatedly until the computer responded. Then it stopped working completely (IE I could still move the mouse pointer, but couldn't click using the touch pad). I switched from windows to look for a solution on the internet, but when I clicked on the address bar of Google Chrome the cursor started ahead of his own, as someone has pressed the space bar - but I was not. This makes type impossible because there were huge gaps between each letter. I turned the computer off and back on (thanks, ICT courses), but the problem has not disappeared - only now, the mouse pointer disappeared sometimes still. It was getting late so I turned it off again and fell asleep.

    This morning as I began it upward there was noises Eman that makes it usually when I plug / unplug power. I tried to type in my password... and couldn't. The capslock wasn't on, I of course did not forget the password from one day to the next, but I kept receiving error messages and could not open a session. Even worse, when I tried to switch to an account that was not protected by Word, he kept jumping to the mine after maybe 3 seconds. I finally managed to click the icon of the second account and logged.

    The touchpad still don't click, when I open Chrome and clicked on the address bar he reacted as I clicked with the button right referring (so I couldn't type) and the mouse pointer always disappears randomly. I did a Norton quick scan and it came with 22 'risks' that he apparently 'fixed', but the problem has not yet disappeared. I would be v. grateful for a quick response, as the laptop is actually not mine, but my father (who keeps valuable most of his photographs on the hard drive).

    EDIT: I opened it in Mode without failure. the touchpad works now, but randomly on the keyboard keys have stopped working. Others come with a random combinations when I press on them, for example. "you" instead of "t", "p"] - when I press on «-» I can't even reinstall the keyboard drivers, because I can't type in my admin password.

    Also I do not know what topic to put this in so if it's wrong, please let me know!

  • ThinApp and Vista business question

    Hi, I've been using ThinApp 4.0.2 with Windows XP successfully (currently the trial version - due to changes on the full product this week), but we moved on Vista Business.  If you are using Vista, at the end of the phase of 'Create project' (before you build the application, I get a page full of files that were unable to copy.  Does anyone know what means this error and how it effects my final build?

    Just to clarify, I built a single application on XP without the error, the error looks like (multiple lines):

    Could not copy the file C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows\MSS.log - & gt; C:\Program ThinApp\Captures\%appname%\%$Common AppData%\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows\MSS.log VMware

    Thank you

    This error message is harmless. Looks like the indexer process was running and keeps a file opens, ThinApp detects that the file has changed, but it can be copied to the project because another process, he opened. It's ok, your application does not need it.

    If you are able to start in safe mode, you need to get a windows vista dvd to solve the problem

  • Vista / windows media center / missing mouse pointer

    Hi I recently bought vista Home premium v6.0.6002.2.2.0.768.3 and have all the updates.

    I have 2 similar problems.
    When I start windows media center I lose the mouse pointer and if I use alt - tab returns in other running programs such as office. so it seems only to be windows media center problem.
    to exit the program I have to ctrl-alt-del and use taskmanger to complete the process, but even if it works sometimes.

    I get a similar problem with other programs, especially when loading software.
    It was not to display the error on the top window or place an item in the taskbar.

    and I don't get to see if I minimize all other windows.

    It's on a laptop Acer 1810 entered t oem installed with vista home premium.

    radar888,
    The first thing you posted in the category Windows Update, but I moved this forum hardware and drivers.

    However, in safe mode, your computer starts with generic basic hardware drivers.  That's why it will give an error that your video card is not good enough for Media Center.  The fact that the mouse works properly in safe mode indicates that you have a driver problem.  I would update ALL your hardware drivers (video, sound, NETWORK, touchpad, etc...).  Then test the position of the mouse.  You can check with the Acer site for drivers.  You can check with the hardware manufacturer for the latest drivers for your video card.

  • System restore calendar is empty, cannot set new points and cannot use Windows help.

    Original title: registry problem affecting system restore etc.

    The system restore calendar is empty, I can't put new points, and I can't use Windows help because I can not type in the dialog box. If the problem is described in the doc #313853, the solution he proposed did not. Defeating my cleanups registry also seems not to help. Any suggestions?

  • Tecra S5 Vista Business SP1 - Tempro crashes instantly

    Hello

    I think that the idea of Tempro is just great. This allows me to keep all the drivers updated. Unfortunately, it didn't work for a few days and never again. Now, I received a notification of update that Tempro 1.2 is out.

    Installed and I hope that my misfortunes of the past will be more. No luck. So I'll try again to find out why and I hope someone on this forum can help identify why Tempro should simply crash the second that it is started.

    PS: in case it helps: Tecra S5, ZoneAlarm, SuperAntiSpy, Webroot AV and Vista Business SP1

    I see that you have installed a lot of 3rd party software.
    Hey Buddy, I got the Zonealarm too and I wasn't satisfied. This tool always requires approvals and other applications didn't work properly.

    I m wondering if the Tempro crashed after installing a new OS from Toshiba. I mean you could test to see if a 3rd party tool affect this software.

    I would recommend taking the recovery disk and reinstall the operating system. Updated the Tempro, then check if the problem still persists.

    Sorry, but buddy is a way to discover what causes this problem.

  • Lens EF-s 50mm f/1.8 VTS good for a woman "point and shoot"?

    As my title, my wife is a photographer 'point and shoot '.  It uses mainly its point and shoot at the school where she teaches to take portrait photos and the occasional action shot of his students (Pre-school-age, inside and outside).  The EF-s 50mm f/1.8 VTS goal would be a good 'all around' lens for these types of shots?  I have a rebel T6i I bought because some of the more advanced features (variable lens and manual control) to a DSLR wanted on a point and shoot and the ease of use for my wife.  I also wanted the WiFi features as my wife has no idea what a SD card is (it is very technically challenged) and I wanted an easy way for her to transfer his punches to his iPad (which the T6i has accomplished admirably).

    Thank you

    "Not very good for free kicks or a groups because of the depth of field with the fixed focal length but can be artistic."

    It's a little... ah... bad!  Top of the list when is to compare a target of 50 mm zoom, a prime number is more limited to what he does well.  This means that you need to weigh the bennys for inconvenience.

    A 50mm on a T6 can be great for the quick because you do not have to be as close to the child (s).  It may be a problem because you can not be closer to the child(ren).  Do you see this trend a bit. The 'deep-fo-field' DOF, has nothing to do with it in this case.

    No Point and shoot, P & S, who deserve to have confined to a fixed lens or privileged.  That is to say, the series G of Canon P & s.  I have a G15 and it ia a great camera.  However, this level of P & S is not at a great price.

    Sorry, but the lens I would recommend for her and you won't come cheaply or the other.  But you already dropped the piece on a great device so here is my thought, EF-S 17-55 f/2.8 IS USM.  It almost gives you the best of both worlds.  It's fast.  It has a good range of focal lengths.  It has a remarkable IQ.  It will be the T6 as close to the best P & S there.

    So my answer to long-term to your question, ' EF-s 50mm f/1.8 VTS good for a woman "point and shoot"?

    No, it wouldn't.
