My cursor keeps jumping everywhere when I type. How can I stop this?
Hello
Because the keyboard is integrated in the casing of the laptop, just the vibration caused by typing can cause the touchpad the cursor or initiate a click, depending on sensitivity settings.
You must disable the touchpad when typing. Most modern laptops provide an option or a keyboard shortcut to get there.
The following keyboard shortcuts have been known to disable the touchpad on different systems. N Fand hold and then press F4, F6, F7, or F12 to disable the Touchpad.
Specific instructions, read the instructions for your system or contact the support of laptop manufacturers.

- Disable the touchpad and mouse, like all devices keyboard-inserted (pointer stick and buttons.) Maybe one of these methods work for you?
http://support.Dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/KCS/document?docid=424135 - Connect a USB mouse.
- Use USB mouse exclusively for a day or two...
- Problems still?
Most of the time this problem is easily explained and tested by something like the above. A replacement test must cover the touchpad with something thick enough to prevent it being used as you type. It takes nothing to activate these keys to touch and some people are more likely to do so (as others are actually less likely to do so). I haven't looked into why - but given their operation, it might have to do with static electricity and tastes.
You'd be surprised how many times this is neglected. I know you want to be something simple like the one you've apparently spent much too much money so he can be something that ridiculously simplistic - but... Try it. You have nothing to loose (certainly less money you already have)?

When you type text, cursor jumps suddenly to a point in the text already entered. Use Ctrl Z to recover. How to stop this?
I use Windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron.
I recently did a "clean boot" who has cured a problem of high CPU usage, but left me this cursor jumping problem. I have to look at the screen as I type to be aware of these breaks that often occur at random.
Hello Malcolm,
Yours is a laptop? If so, you're probably brushing the touchpad with your Palm or fingers. The easiest way around this problem is with an external mouse with touchpad disabled. To disable the touchpad go to control panel, Manager of devices and look under the mouse or HID for her. Then, right-click on it and select Disable (not uninstall - it will reinstall itself only if you do).
You can also connect an external mouse and select the option for Notification of Touchpad to disable the touchpad when an external mouse is present. This setting can be found in the mouse properties dialog.
Let me know if this solves the problem for you.
Kind regards

I just picked up a 12 inch I have pad PRO and bought a keyboard provided by Apple, however I find that the base remains unstable and keeps the hustle when you type, the seller it says it's a design flaw. Can someone tell me if this is the case?
find it hard to imagine that Apple could sell these defective products.
If the seller is an authorized Apple reseller, an independent company,
You may need to ask you if you could see & try a different product sample
because you might be looking at something that has a defect.
{According to the related help page, Type position should be more
stable to use. However if the keyboard is not flat, this sounds like default.}
Sounds as if you're not at the official Apple Store (apple retailer)
but, on the contrary, are somewhere else. Could you give more information?
Some keyboard accessories are made by third party companies; so
If the product has an Apple product model number, we note here.
When considering the purchase of an accessory, it's a good idea to test
and check in the store before you buy. An official Apple Store has
a different return policy as an independent reseller of Apple.
Don't know if I can be useful; These chat rooms are usually Apple
users of products such as yourself, who have taken their unpaid time
to see if they can help the other users of the product.
Good luck...!

Windows Media Player opens when I type any key. This started 2 days ago and did the computer virtually unusable. The mouse is however immune to this phenomenon, so I can still use it.
No idea how to solve this problem?
Ideas:
- You have problems with programs
- Error messages
- Recent changes to your computer
- What you have already tried to solve the problem
Do a system restore. Choose at least 3 days ago when you did not have this problem as your restore point.
Start button > Search box, type system restore > press the Enter key > uac prompt > click on choose a different restore point > next > select dates as your restore point, until the click > next > finish
To sit and wait. The machine restarts when it's done.For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.
