Mouse problems. Double click to open things does not. Click to create a link in IE also does not work.

When something can be simple click it to open it, it works. If there must be double clicked and then it doesn't. Also, the links in Internet Explorer work by clicking with the mouse. Am so frustrated. Tried every difficulty that I could find on the web & does not. Use a different mouse, reinstalled the drivers, nothing. Switched left button to be single click to open in settings - did not work. Have to use Tab to navigate something, so it is highlighted. Press "enter" and then it opens if this is the main screen, in a folder or in IE. Help... Please! Thank you.

Leiden,

In my view, there was a point he was working again properly. I suggest to do a System Restore and see if it helps
See you soon ~!

  • Mouse problems: double clicks, no answer on a touch,.

    HP PS2 optical mouse on my HP Pavilion a6547c desktop computer started acting erratic.  Sometimes, it works very well, but more often then not, this does not work properly.  Most of the problems occur then that on internet (Firefox) and in a forum.  When you try to move to the next page, is not always detect the click on the symbol of the page next or page number.  When you try to go back, using the arrow at the top of Firefox, it will sometimes jump back two pages.  When you try to close a window with the X in upper-right, it will occasionally close the window, I was on that and the following on-screen.

    I went into Control Panel and deleted the mouse driver.  After a reboot, I got the system and reinstall the driver for the mouse.  Still no change.

    System specs are:

    Operating system: MS Windows Vista Home Premium 64 - bit SP2

    You can test your computer use another mouse? From what you describe, it seems quite possible that the mouse is just. You can pick up a decent optical mouse for $10-15 of: just about anywhere. Or maybe borrow one from a friend if you want to test and make sure that it has solved the problem before you buy.

    I realize a hardware problem of mouse does not explain why problems occur more often in Firefox/forums, but it's a good thing to rule out anyway.

  • How can I configure my computer to the simple click with the mouse to double-click to open an item on the desktop instead

    How can I configure my computer to the simple click with the mouse to double-click to open an item on the desktop instead

    Hi placebow,

    Open the Options folder by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, appearance and personalization, and then clicking Folder Options. On the general tab, click single-click to open an item. (To return to the standard click, click double-click to open an item.)

    The setting applies not only at the office, but also in other areas of the shell.

  • My mouse is double click

    Windows XP Home Edition / SP3 / Google Chrome.  I'm having a problem with my mouse. My settings are set to my left click button, but when I click it, double-click it. If I type an address in the URL search bar, and I want to click with the mouse to place the cursor in a certain place, it is highlighting a word or all words in blue, as if I wanted to copy. So, if I want to copy and paste, I press the button down to copy, it shows the blue highlight, but when I reach the end of what I want to copy, when I release the button, the blue highlighting disappears. Or if I want to copy the 3 words at the beginning of a paragraph, when I drag the slider, it highlights the entire paragraph.  I tried it with a different mouse and the same thing happens. If I click on a link, 2 new tabs open. If I click to open a new tab, 2 tabs open. I can't tell if it's a problem of Windows or Google Chrome.

    Have you tried uninstalling both and reboot the machine

    Also, what kind of mouse do you use? What is a mouse PS2 (mouse standard 6-pin) or use a USB mouse. ?

  • Mouse problem - everything about score opens! Help, please

    Using Windows Vista Home Basic.

    I had no problems so far. I guess it's a touchpad problem but I tried everything I know and I can't fix it.

    When I pass something, it is like I left clicked it. This is happening everywhere, including desktop, Windows Explorer, and programs.

    I tried to change the setting in options files (double click to open things), and I consulted with the touch pad options and everything I have tried.

    Can anyone help please?

    Hello

    Is the touchpad mouse or you use another mouse? Most of the touch keys have Hover and
    other settings in the control panel - mouse.

    What has changed just before this started happening? Add anything? New startup program
    or update antivirus and security or other?

    Some systems have shortcut keys that control the way which responds the touchpad, check with the manufacturer of the system.

    Try reinstalling the drivers for the touchpad.

    Try to use a clean boot to see if that stops the problem.

  • (Problem with the arrows) Adobe Reader is not working properly

    I have problem with the Adobe Reader plug-in. When I have a tab open with the pdf file, my arrows do not work in other tabs in firefox, only in this tab where it is the open pdf file. Also, I noticed that when you try to use the arrows in the other cards, they are working on a pdf file.

    I am tempted to uninstall and reinstall Adobe Reader, but it does not work. Help, please.

    I solved the problem reinstalling Firefox, because when I turned off Macromedia my pdf file still worked, but the arrows didn't always work. I think it was a problem with the plugin from adobe.

  • I can't open a windows session that mouse and the keyboard of the laptop are not working

    I had problems after trying to remove my hard drive security software, so I tried to run the Microsoft System Restore. It has not then I ran then ran the program to repair the disk supplied by HP with the notebook.

    The result is that the laptop seems to start ok but when the log on window appears that I can't do as the full implementation of the mouse or the keyboard. The laptop is under XP SP3, but after the repair process, it now seems to be Build 2600 xpsp SP"rtm 040803 - 2158 Service pack 2.

    The laptop is a HP Pavilion dv4232EA

    I can solve this problem of the mouse and keyboard without reformatting and loading of software?

    If not, is there a way to recover some data from HDD files before reformatting?

    nvsm1

    Hey nvsm1,

    I'm sorry that you run into this problem starting. Absolutely, there is a way to get hold of these data. Better yet, it's free too! You can use a LiveCD. The link below has all the information you need on creating a LiveCD and how to use it to recover your data. That case is due to infection by the virus, but it can be used in all cases where the Windows operating system has become corrupted and does not start (drops physical, boot manager or viral infections is damaged).

    Recovering data using a Knoppix LiveCD

    Because the repairs go well, the best next step would be a total reformat Windows, unfortunately. You pourriez give repair one more try, but I think it will finally take a reformat. I would recover the data first before trying an alternative remedy.

    Please let me know if you have other issues with Knoppix or whatever it is. Let me know the results when you get a chance

  • No CD-ROM with ergonomic keyboard 4000, then things do not work

    Hello Allayas!  :-)

    OK, so I recently bought a:
    Microsoft 4000 ergonomic keyboard

    Only problem is that it didn't come with the CD-ROM, which usually has the drivers, other software/freeware and instructions and so on and so forth.

    IE: for example -.

    • I can't use 5 programmable keys at the top of the keyboard, in the Center, and I think ' they are supposed to be the most important because of their location and so on.
    • The Zoom slider in the middle of the keyboard is ab-so-lute-ly, nada! [Samething goes for the key with the big star on this subject.]
    • Almost all the buttons do nothing. Not at all.
    • more there are things written on the front of the keys, I have no idea what to do with them. They have words like: {copy, paste, cut, search, save, all pointed out, new open, print, italics and they also} a few buttons that work, like, on the F12 key, it says 'print', well I say is for printing

    Is it possible that I can get a 'friend' to post, so I can download the contents of their CD, as everything in a folder and let download me, or you can send it to me to.

    Thank you very much
