Keyboard/cursor problems.

I have an ASUS E - pad Transformer 101. As I type on my keyboard, the cursor continues on to go somewhere else on my screen, so that if I'm not careful, I will be typing in somewhere else. It is very annoying... If someone has had this problem or know why it continues to be now?

It is a very common problem when users become familiar with a new laptop. Either your palm/wrist/cuff/bracelet is touching the touchpad as you type or the touch pad sensitivity is set too high and reacts to strong strikes.
  • Someone to watch you while you type to see if you are brushing the laptop touchpad inadvertently.
  • Go to the control panel mouse configuration and reduce the sensitivity of the touchpad.
  • Make sure you use the latest version of the driver from the manufacturer of the laptop for the touchpad and update if a new becomes available.
  • Some laptops allow the option to disable the touchpad while typing is performed.
  • Disable the touchpad entirely in favor of a wireless laptop mouse.
As noted previously, this is a very common problem and users are usually completely unaware they do even when it is pointed out to them.

  • OS sound produce a high-pitched noise (M70-160) + keyboard cursor jumps

    Hello everyone,

    I own a satellite M70-160 for about a year. There are two problems:
    (a) 15 days ago all the sounds of the o/s (for example when windows start/end, wheel etc) no longer works properly and began to produce a high-pitched noise. It's extremely annoying. I downloaded the realtek soundmax which only temporarily solves the problem. Now every time I have reinstall, when sound is shut down it works fine, but then again when I restart the computer it is working properly.
    In addition this problem disappears and appears periodically and it seems that most of the o/s sound time is malfunctioning.

    (b) when I type fast in keyboard cursor jumps into other lines or bar tasks or made the selection of text etc. as there is a kind of shortcut (this problem is not related to the first as it appeared from the beginning).

    I shouldn't forget to mention that I installed almost every new driver (might have missed one or two but it is highly unlikely)

    Thank you very much

    Giorgos

    Hello

    (a) I have the same unit, but so far I didn't notice something like that. If this happens regularly, it makes the not so easy diagnosis. Try to test with different volume levels and also with headphones.
    (b) key combination while typing to disable using FN + F9 touchpad. Maybe you touch touchpad with your hand while typing so fast.

    The last option you can try is updated BIOS. If you want to do this please READ the document how to do this.

  • Mouse cursor problem

    After a few hours, my mouse cursor gets... weird. She becomes a fatter version of himself (in his goal a bit biased as well) with multiple copies, overlapping itself in different colors. The cursor "hovering on the text" is not affected, its 'I' used remaining shape, but others, including the slider "arrow" by default and the "hovering on the hyperlink pointing to the hand" is weird. Turning on the traces of the mouse leaves a copy of the weird arrow cursor, but the normal mouse comes back and works well.

    So, basically, how to avoid this strange, large, multicolored, slider which came into existence, and the case of activation of the traces of the mouse * is * the only way to turn it off, how can I get rid of the weird, big, multicolored cursor unsightly that lingers on my screen? Virus scan has not turned up all wicked. Would it be a specific program (it's a gaming computer and not all games are perfect...) which irritates my computer in a certain way and results do?

    NOTE: I use a special gaming mouse or anything like that. It's a Dell which came with a (different) computer that I got years ago. Device Manager indicates that the drivers are up to date. I don't think it's a problem with this mouse especially, but I have no real way to check a different mouse on this computer without having to buy one.

    Thanks for reading.

    I'd be willing to bet that it's your video card driver.  My Dell has an ATI video card and it happens sometimes.  I have a graphics card dual monitor and oddly enough happens that on my primary monitor - display of the cursor on the screen 2 is not affected.

    ATI made a patch for cursor problems, unfortunately the Dell that I use is in a corporate environment and they did not find enough critical to give me the patch again.

    You could try the Dell support page, go to the downloads section and make sure you have the latest video card driver.

    Original title: Focus cursor problem

    I can't get my cursor will appear in a search box (e.g., Google, amazon.com, etc.) in Firefox Version 16.  It seems to be a kind of focus problem.  Is it a Firefox problem or a problem of Windows 7?  Could this be a script problem?  Thanks for any ideas on how to solve this problem.

  • Windows 7 displays the error message when you exit + cursor problem

    Two issues here. Phoshop CS5 on Wind 7 64-bit.

    Number of physical processors: 8
    Processor speed: 3073 MHz
    Built-in memory: 12279 MB
    Free memory: 9577 MB
    Memory available to Photoshop: 10934 MB
    Memory used by Photoshop: 80%
    Tile image size: 128K

    First issue is since the last update automatic Adobe (why fix what is not broken?) Whenever I go out now Photoshop I get the message "Server QT Adobe has stoped working" and sometimes when I go out the bridge. InDesign behaves as evil. I can no longer start a previous document in the file without ID Manager crashing on.

    The other is the sliders in the Clone and delete lose their advantage (become invisable) without any reason - well not quite. Noise Ninja crashed in Photoshop when I tried to use it. I reinstalled it and all is well. The issue of cursor seems to be intermittent but came back (for no reason), after that I reinstalled NN. I can't seem to change the cursor, no matter what I do. The problem now seriously affect how I work. Almost any return to Win XP, who ran perfectly in Photoshop CS5.

    Any help will be accepted with gratitude.

    Cursor problems are known to be caused by outdated video drivers (nVidia).

    Assuming you have a nVidia (which model?) video card, go to their web site and download and install the latest video drivers for your card.

    Also, this could very well solve your crash.

    Don't forget the video drivers to apply the OpenGL system, on which Photoshop relies heavily.

  • cursor problems

    Hello

    The cursor on my MacBook Air selects texts, emails or icons out of the Blues; the cursor moves to other locations during the strike and does not allow to type a complete sentence. I disabled all the gestures the trackpad section of system preferences, I started the Mac Safeboot mode a couple of times and nothing has solved the problem. It's a MacBook Yosemite 10.10.5 2012.

    Any suggestion on how to solve this problem?

    Thank you

    There are several possible causes for the behavior. Please take each of the following steps that you have not already tried until it is resolved. Some may not apply in your case.

    1. follow the instructions provided in this support article, so this one, as appropriate. A damaged or defective power adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.

    2 simultaneously press the four corners of the trackpad and release. If there is no effect, it is likely to be temporary, and in this case the device must be repaired or replaced.

    3. disconnect or turn off each Bluetooth or USB pointing device, one at a time, testing as you go. You may be able to identify one that is defective. By a pointing device "," I mean a device that moves the cursor, trackpad, mouse, trackball, or tablets. A regular keyboard isn't a pointing device. If you have a desktop without a built-in trackpad design, at least an external pointing device must be active at all times.

    4. If your model has an infrared receiver for use with an Apple Remote, turn off .

    5. This step is applicable if you are using a Mac laptop with a built-in trackpad, and you also use an external mouse or trackpad. Open the accessibility in System Preferences pane, and select mouse and Trackpad in the menu on the left. Check the box marked

    Ignore the built-in trackpad when mouse or a trackpad wireless is present

    Credit for this observation to the members of the CSA PattMK.

    6. reset the system management controller.

    7. If you use a mouse or a trackpad, Bluetooth, investigate potential interference sources, including 3 USB devices.

    8. a swollen in a laptop battery can encroach on the trackpad underneath and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, it is probably the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.

    9. a faulty device or a damaged cable can cause the built-in trackpad to a MacBook to behave erratically. If you use the wired devices, disconnect them one at the time and the test.

    10. There is also a report of movement erratic cursor caused by an external display that was plugged in but not turned on.

    11. If you use transfer, disable it in the general pane of system preferences.

    12. If the mirroring of airtime to a TV is turned on, turn it off.

    13. If none of the above apply, or if you have another reason to believe that your computer is remotely controlled, pull it out of the network by turning off Wi - Fi (or your Wi - Fi access point), disconnect a Bluetooth network connection, then unplug the Ethernet cable or a USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the movement of the cursor stops at the same time, you should suspect an intrusion.

    14. an appointment of 'Genius' in an Apple store to do the machine or the tested external trackpad.

  • Satellite R830 - keyboard button problem:

    Our Toshiba Satellite R830 has a temperament H key. If you press the left side of the key, it works very well. If you press the right side, this isn't. All other keys are fine. This could be the result of debris?

    Is it easy to jump off the key and pop it back on again?

    Well, what you can do is remove the CAP button and check the box under the hood
    You can use a jet of compressed air to remove dust (if available).
    But I think that its some mechanical problem, the point is that the simple buttons cannot be replaced, you can replace the plugs, but not the button so you will need to replace the entire keyboard to get it repaired.

  • Libretto W100 cursor problems

    Hello

    I have a lot of problems of cursor on a new Libretto W100. Using the field courses on the display it move it in the opposite on the top of the screen. Then I go to the right below, the cursor moves in the direction towards the top left. The only way I found to stop this problem is a full reboot. And then it works OK, but when I close the lid and leave it alone for two hours, for example, come and activate the problem reappears. I especially don't even touch screens to avoid confusion between the machine. But I can reproduce it consistently.

    Very annoying. Any seen elsewhere or have a solution?

    Kind regards

  • Satellite L670 - 1 L 4 - gambling with the combination keyboard/mouse problem

    I have a problem in game with my keyboard/mouse combination.

    When I run it, I can't draw.
    I changed the keys, mouse, connected to an external keyboard, checked drivers mouse and keyboard. Any extract, which makes me think that it is a driver/hardware problem. First time I noticed it, I thought it was a bug in the game. Now I have a new problem.

    The games that I have encountered the problem: Borderlands 2 and Rainbow Six Vegas 2
    Satellite L670 - 1 L 4
    Windows 7 operating system
    Mouse: Trust model #16336

    Hello

    As far as I know the mouse and keyboard drivers are the drivers Microsoft and Toshiba doesn't offer drivers for these devices except the driver for the touchpad to improve the touchpad options. I don t think that Toshiba is testing the feature with different games.

    Confused, it's that you have noticed the same problem using the external keyboard and mouse.
    Is there a possibility to test it with some older games?

  • Satellite A300 - replacement for the keyboard button problem

    Satellite A300 broken my number key 3.
    Easy to fix but still Toshiba have charged me £43 to replace it with a new full keyboard.
    It is less than 6 months old and still under warranty.

    What an absolute joke, I wouldn't have another toshiba again.

    > What an absolute joke, I wouldn't have another Toshiba again.
    Well, it is your personal opinion but I agree.

    However, if you understand something about laptops so you'd know that the single button can not be replaced.
    Only the CAP can be replaced but not the button on the keyboard, and thus the entire keyboard needs to be replaced!

    In addition, the guarantee only covers hardware problems that are not caused by laptop user I n don't know why the button on your keyboard is broken (maybe you was your fault) but I think that you have contacted the ASP in your country and talked to the technician then why you didn't explain that it wasn't your fault?

    In any case, the case should be clear now

    recently, some of my keys are are unresponsive or work when I press them. I have not spilled or left my laptop falling, but all of a sudden, my backspace,------, and various enter key will not respond when I try to use them. It is very annoying to not be able to use my back bar and it's bugging me! I tried my laptop for virus scanning, but nothing was found. I'm not sure if it could be a problem of circuit or something, but I need to fix, as soon as possible because I need my laptop for class. Help me please if anyone knows what may be the problem!

    Thank you!

    I guess it's a problem with the keyboard...

    the only thing you can try is to open your laptop and connected to search if the keyboard cable is always good, otherwise, you can install a new keyboard...

  • cursor problem chart xy

    Hello

    I have a weird problem with cursors on XY graph. I can't get the cursor and even when I put manually the value of X in the legend of the cursor, the cursor sometimes go to go to this value of X. And the question is very intermittent. The sliders sometimes operate without any problem and sometimes I can not enter and move them.

    I have attached the vi here that I'm having a problem with. Could someone take a look and let me know if you also have the same problem as me. See if you can move the sliders, snap the cursor on different plots and always able to move the sliders.

    Thank you

    LVCoder

    OK, I found the problem with the bizarre behavior of cursors. It is because of the free third sliders whose value is set by program. Because I set its value equal to the difference first 2 sliders, its value can be a higher value of the negative due to which the sliders do not behave properly.

    To solve the problem I am remove the third cursor and place 2 digital indicators on the front panel to show the delta between 2 sliders

  • drag cursor problem

    Hi all

    In my application, I have a chart with 2 sliders. There is 1 primary cursor (black color) that can be moved can on the chart. And another (in green) cannot go to the left of the black.

    On 'Move cursor' (green) event, whenever the value of the cursor X is less black, I do value let slip false. But it's not working.

    Could you pls look at my Vi and suggest me a solution.

    Thank you

    Sorry, of course you should get the x directly from the terminal event. No need to ungroup.
