Magnifying glass will not die!

Whenever I turn on the computer, I get this magnifying glass thing where my cursor should be.

I tried all the procedures suggested on this forum and others to turn it off, but it just keeps turning on.  It is really annoying and makes it very difficult to get anything done.  Help!

Hello Chibi2,

·         What are the steps you tried to disable the magnifying glass on your computer?

·         Do you have any software installed on your computer mouse?

·         Remember to make changes to the computer before that happened?

First of all, you should try to disable it from the control panel.

1. click on start, all programs, accessories, accessibility and accessibility.

2. click on make the computer easier to see.

3 uncheck Turn on Magnifier and click Save.

If this is already disabled in the Control Panel, you must check the mouse settings if it is enabled.

If you have a Point of Intelli software installed on your computer, you can try to disable the magnifying of the mouse settings.

You will be able to access this setting in the list of programs. Open this software and look for the option disable the functionality of Zoom (magnify).

Thank you

  • Process will not die

    A week, maybe two, it trafficking, especially firefox, IE, and some games, refuse to die. They die when closed regularly, since the Manager tasks, or even the process of killing programs. I think it's very annoying that I have to restart my computer because frequently used programs are hogging all the memory or an instance program refused to run because there is already a running. I lost the work on this problem. Is this something that happens to other people? Is this a ploy to get everyone to install 7?

    I have no spyware, malware, viruses or Trojans that is recognized by all major spyware/malware/Antivirus programs. I'm also fairly warned the process that needs to run and routine maintenance, so I doubt I have something went wrong along the way, I know this mainly because I didn't mess with anything as config and registry. There is no program or registry changes any where near the time it started to arrive.

    I would also like to add that the reboot does not work, it just hangs. I have to do a hard reset.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

    Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however don't forget to check your antivirus
    programs, the main drivers and BIOS update and also solve the problems with the cleanboot method
    first.

  • [ADF, JDev12.1.3] 'Enter LOV': how to show the magnifying glass (but not the inputText)?

    Hallo,

    I have associated with an LOV entry field (FieldA) and I configured the LOV to return the value for the field LOV itself plus other 2 values to fill other 2 fields (FieldB and FieldC).

    So I have:

    FieldA |... | (Magnifier)

    FieldB |... |

    FieldC |... |

    I would like to see the magnifying of the LOV FieldA field but not his inputText.

    Is it possible to do this? If so, how?

    Could I choose the magnifying glass should appear next to what area?

    Thank you

    Federico

    You can add: contentStyle = "" display: none; "to your component LOV;"

  • Notifications of the quarter activity will not die!

    Hello

    I was lucky enough to get a watch for Christmas I put in place perfectly on my iphone 5.

    Then, when I was doubly lucky to get an iphone 6 transfer the new phone was not quite as simple but the most annoying is that despite the deactivation of all notifications of activity on the new phone they still keep popping up on my watch!

    I tried to restart the phone and watch, but without effect.  I tried search it online, but the only advice I can find is to disable notifications on the phone that has already occurred.

    Am I missing something?  Any greatefully of advice received + all my apologies in advance if the answer to that is blindly obvious.

    With thanks a lot

    Check that Bluetooth and Wi - Fi are activated on your iPhone:

    -Phone: Settings > Bluetooth - on.

    Check that your iPhone and Apple Watch are connected:

    -When you show the time on your watch, drag upward on your watch dial > drag left / right for the look of settings > check it shows connected and shows a green phone icon.

    -Turn off the airplane Mode if it is enabled.

    Check the settings on your iPhone:

    -On your iPhone, in the application of Eve, go to: Watch My > activity > turn off each one: Stand reminders, reminders of course (set to None), goal achievements, achievements, weekly summary.

    If the problem persists, try to logout and re-matching of your watch:

    -L'app shows on your iPhone shows backups automatically, including a new when the unpairing via the application.

    -Choose to restore the watch (backup restore) when provided the opportunity during the whole. Most of the data and settings will be restored, with a few exceptions (for example cards Pay Apple, access code).

  • magnifying glass is constantly changing zoom size while typing

    It drives me crazy.  While typing a post, the auto zoom lights (later changed to 110%) I typed that sentence.  The hourglass (now it's 125 per cent and now back to 110 per cent).   I have reset by default and it will start to change again once I type.  Sometimes he (90% now) goes up so much that I can't not (110-90) up to 700%.  driving me crazy.  It behaves actually better than many other times, when it begins to change the zooms so fast that the computer is unusable.   I checked the usability in the control panel and the magnifying glass is not checked.  I'm not clicking on shortcuts for zoom in changes.

    After trying for months, I finally fixed it right after the typo in the above post.  The constant evolution of zoom was caused by the wireless mouse.  I opened the Control Panel, mouse and disabled a few zoom feature.

  • My MS 5000 Mouse will not work on glass? Any solution?

    I just bought the mouse and found that, after I've cleaned my desk top in glass that lists the mouse is no longer on the screen.  Someone has the fix for this?

    The glass is transparent?  Usually, transparent glass will leave the 'light' mouse / "laser" to get completely through.  It is not reflected back to the sensor so that the mouse / pilots cannot see that it has been moved.  You may need a mouse pad.  As test, place a single sheet of paper and try the mouse.  If the mouse seems to work, then you will need the key.
