Laptop cursor jumps back to the top whenever you press SPACEBAR

• When scrolling or paging down, guard cursor jumping back to the top (occurs in all programs including email, words, etc.).

  While I'm working in an application program, it seems that certain keystroke (s) (shortcut keys I'm not aware and not intention to use?) causes my cursor jump to the top of the page and getting stuck there. When I scroll or page down to go to the point where I want my cursor to continue working and entering text or data, it doesn't let me do; it jumps to the top of the page.  Simualtaneously, if I try to solve the problem by making CTRL + G to go to a page says, the view goes to very large print (more than 100%) as soon as I hit him CTRL and that's all that happens.   It often happens in Word and when it happens there, it does also in my e-mail and Internet Explorer and Windows Explorer software.  I havde printed the list of keyboard shortcuts to see if I can detect what I do when typing that can cause, but so far I have not been able to know what could be.  I don't see any description of this type of behavior associated with any shortcut key; and I don't know what keys are causing it (by time, it starts to occurring at that I don't know what type, I used maybe inadvertently).  Someone on my team to support the University suggested that maybe it's my mouse; I changed my mouse and it's the same thing.  The only thing is that I've not seen what pops up is when I use the ball of keyboard to navigate (not the mouse); Since I ususally only dispenses with the mouse by send away from home, I'm not even sure that it won't happen that way either.  M HERE to loss. It is very annoying since I have to close the file, I'm trying to stop the behavior. and sometimes it will not even do this, I have to open a session

  Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers community forum.

  I will include links to articles that show you every possible shortcut keys that you might be inadvertently hit to create this behavior.  If none of these prove to be the problem, you can consult the web site of the manufacturer of your laptop because they sometimes proprietary software installed on portable computers that is separate from the operating system.

• Why keep the cursor jump back to the top

  My cursor continues to spoil and goes right to the top or ignore the lines and words. What is a solution?

  You type on a laptop? In this case, the touchpad is very probably hypersensitive. Some keyboards can register fast typing like the movements of the mouse. :-(

  You can reduce the sensitivity settings in Control Panel, or you can disable the touchpad (temporarily or permanently) and use a mouse instead.

• I use win 7 and the cursor jumps all over the page when you type

  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 cannot find back to the top before you reinstall Visa Business x 32.

  As I had problems with windows, the decision was made to reinstall Vista Business x 32; has SP2. Before that, I did a return upwards using the windows towards the high utility (I had done this for the last 18 months). I can find the back of the files on the external hard drive (PC name, backup set of 1st registration, I've done the reverse and then the following dates that I saved the last date with 12.8 GB). I get the message that it is not save ti available use. I tried to use the method advanced and always impossible to get anything. I tried to boot in safe mode and got the message that this operation was not available in safe mode. The problems that I had with windows has been fixed with the resettlement, but I would really like to get my files back.

  Thanks in advance.

  Here is an article on the restore procedure: http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-restore-files to make sure you do this right.  It's a selective restore of a full or selective backup (not a full restore from a full backup) - but since you did a full backup, it matches your process more closely than would a full restore.

  This is a GREAT article on the backup and restore processes in Vista http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.09.backup.aspx , but he won't go into detail about the restoration process - considering almost as easy, of course.  But it teaches you a lot about what is possible and how to do it.

  Here is an article on the advanced use of restoration (during normal restore does not work): http://www.mayankraichura.com/post/2009/08/06/Avdvanced-Restore-via-Windows-Vista-Backup-and-Restore-Center.aspx.

  I also found the following (but don't know if it of true or not):

  1. after the start of "backup and Restore Center."

  2. I chose "Advanced Restore"

  3. I was did not an administrator password... maybe because my account is an administrator account.

  4 choose "files from a backup made on a different computer.

  5. in the dialog box indicating "Select the location of the backup to restore", select "hard drive, CD or DVD...". »

  6. under the drop-down list box, select your drive/partition and continue

  7. If all the backups on your drive, it will show a list of them.

  8. in my case, he showed a backup, but in the backup location, it will show "backup location is not available."

  9. I was frustrated, but then I somehow just select this backup (Yes... even if he said that the backup location is not available " ")

  10. and you press "next".

  11 guess what... no error!

  12. a window appeared asking me if I wanted to do a full restore, or I want to select specific folders or files.

  13. I selected the folders I wanted to restore and bingo... it their restored smoothly.

  14. so that the next time see a mistake, try to continue with him... ;)

  I don't know if this will help, but it does not provide much information about the process (when it works).  I hope you find any error or discrepancy in your procedure and it will clear up and allow you to restore.

  I hope this helps. If this isn't the case after back and we're going to try something else.  It may have something to do with permissions or the files there and we will discuss these options (and perhaps other institutions).

• Write on the Board whenever you press a button

  Hello

  I want to read a radio buttons control when you press the button "check answer". I would then like to compare this value with a value in a table. If they are the same, I want to update another table. The problem is when I do this more than once the original table is deleted. I have attached my code below.

  A shft register will be your friend.  It keeps the value of the previous iteration, and makes it accessible to the next.  Look at the help.

  You want to change the mechanical Action on the check answer button.

  The data type to select question must be an integer type.

  You should have a wait function in the loop.  No need to turn thousands or millions of times per second to respond to a human user.  Learn to use the Structure of the event.

• I have a HP elitebook 2740 and my cursor jumps constantly on the top left corner of the screen. What can I do to fix this?

  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.

• When I scroll a page all of a sudden the page jumps all the way back to the top

  When I scroll a page all of a sudden the page jumps all the way back to the top

  Hey LouiseReed,

  This could be a problem with your keyboard. For example if your House key was stuck or if you accidentally touch while scrolling the page would jump to the top of the screen. If possible, try to connect to another keyboard and test to see if the same thing happens.

  Another possibility is that your mouse has a top button which is on the Home button. While scrolling if you accidentally hit this button, the page jump to the top.

  If the above information doesn't help you find causing jumps, please provide more specific information such as: what do you use to scroll when this happens, the problem is easily reproducible whether the problem occurs randomly, etc.

  Hope that helps.

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

  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

• What should I do so that I can make a routine (monthly) BACK to the top without having to allow a program that is not properly validated?

  Since July of this year, when I try to back up my computer to HP Envy 17 laptop I get a pop-up window asking if I want to allow the following program to make changes to my computer.  The program is: Microsoft Windows Backup/Windows Hardware Driver verification / valid from 07/12/2009 to 03/07/2011.  Because the validation is obviously outdated, I consider the program run out of appropriate verification, but I can't back up my computer without the program.

  Hewlett-Packard said the problem probably occurs because the computer was missing an update of windows.  Updates happen automatically without my intervention.  I bought the new computer, directly from HP in the month of August, 2011 (after the date of validation of program pop up) with Windows 7 Ultimate installed and had no problem backup of my files to a CD until July of this year.  I believe that the problem may be the result of a rather than a missed update windows update.  What should I do so that I can make a routine (monthly) BACK to the top without having to allow a program that is not properly validated?

  At this point, the problem of slower Internet connection and loading is probably resolved.  I wanted to try the simpler remedy without doing unnecessary downloads.  Fortunately, there is a Windows update that created a restore point the day before the problem occurred.  I restored the system to this date, and the problem disappeared...

• The modal is jumped is not the top of the stack

• Since the update to El Capitan, during the scrolling of the screen guard snapping back to the top of the screen. How can I stop this?

  Since the update to El Capitan, during the scrolling of the screen guard snapping back to the top of the Web page. How can I stop this?

  Please read this message before doing anything.

  This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

  The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

  Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

  Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

  Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

  The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

  Test in safe mode. Same problem?

  After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.

• view iTunes Album snaps back to the top

  Hi all, I have a problem with my iTunes, which I fear may now default to iTunes.

  When I press 'play' or double-click a track for 'Album' iTunes snaps me back to the top of my list of album.

  I have the music for 88 days.

  As you can imagine, this could be rather irritating, a lot of the time.

  Is there something I can do? Or something Apple can do, such that go back to the good old days where you could actually watch what you play?

  Yours sincerely,

  Timothy Morton

  Yes, there is an annoying bug. A quick solution is to hit Cmd - L... Will take you to the currently playing song.

  I came here looking for my iTunes annoyance: when I double-click an album, all I want is so that he can play and open this album. Unfortunately, they are not properly handle double-clicks, depending on whether the album was already open, as iTunes is at the forefront and most annoyingly, according to where the album is so vertically scrolled on the screen, it may or may not play and peut or cannot open.  This bug you mentioned also another problem. (Although I only saw him intermittently).
