The mouse cursor automatically opens things

If I move my mouse (I use the touchpad on my laptop), it automatically opens all that it stops on.  For example, if I click on the x in the upper right to close an email, and I'm not moving my mouse fast enough, it will be then close outlook because the cursor is on the x.  I end up open web pages, files, deleting things just because the mouse happens to be stopped on this subject.  I know there is a box to make your mouse opens automatically by hovering over them, things that the box is NOT checked, but it always does in any case, you can check.  Suggestions?  Thank you!

Hello

Look in the Notification area next to the clock for all TouchPad control program.

Control Panel - mouse - also look for it TouchPad (mine is on the device however settings tab
other brands and maybe on the other tabs and more than one). There are usually the parameters that
can determine if a click, double click, hover or can open or close a program.

Start - computer, or Windows Explorer - Tools - Folder Options - general tab - check the
Double-click to open an item - APPLY / OK

If some people are well positioned can change to some other setting if you plan to leave
them that way and then change again.

I hope this helps. Rob - bicycle - Mark Twain said it is good.

    I work with dreamweaver cs6 running on Apple Mavericks.

    The site definition window shows all different fields by opening. I have to click blind with the mouse cursor in this window until the fields appear.

    It is somehow very annoying to complete the connection to the server and all the other things.

    Is there a solution?

    If this is the case, I think that it is perhaps a good idea to uninstall Dreamweaver. Before you reinstall, make sure that your personal configuration file has been deleted (see reinstalling Dreamweaver (or the extensions Manager) fails to solve problems). You should then have a completely clean copy of Dreamweaver has again the default settings of the program.

  • Is there a "shortcut" that will bring the mouse cursor to a position of 'home' on the screen

    We currently use Windows 7 and extended desktop in a dental practice that allows us to show images on another screen.  Often you "lose" the cursor on the screen when it is accidentally pushed above the extended desktop.   Y at - it a function that allows you to designate a «shortcut"that when pushed, will automatically return the cursor «before and at the centre"in the main screen?»   We already use it the function of 'location circles', but this is not enough in this situation.

    Thanks for your help, everyone.

    You can of course.  I adapted the instructions below on the following page:

    http://flamingkeys.com/2011/03/moving-the-mouse-cursor-with-Windows-PowerShell/

    And it works well.  Here's how.

    1. Open Notepad and paste these 3 lines.

      Add-Type - AssemblyName System.Windows.Forms
      $screen = [System.Windows.Forms.SystemInformation]: VirtualScreen
      [Windows.Forms.Cursor]: Position = '10', 10

    2. Save the file with a .ps1 name (it is a number at the end, not an I or L), taking care in the box save to select "all files (*.)" *)"in the menu file type to the bottom when you save it.  Example:

      You can save this file anywhere you like. I recommend your C:\ drive or something, because this is not the file that someone will actually use directly.  You must create a shortcut instead.  I'll assume that you have saved under C:\MoveMouse.ps1 for the rest of this post.

    3. On your desktop, do a right click and make a new > shortcut.  As the location of your shortcut item, use the following:

      PowerShell.exe c:\MoveMouse.ps1

    4. Right click on your newly created shortcut and go to properties and assign a keyboard shortcut.  I used Ctrl + Shift + M to mouse.

    That's all.  Now, whenever you press Ctrl + Shift + M, this script batch file executes and move your mouse to the location 10.10 on the screen (just inside the upper-left corner of the screen).

    Take advantage of :)

  • The mouse cursor disappears on the address and search bars.

    In Firefox 10, the mouse cursor disappears from the address bar or the search bar after a certain time, or I guess that after visiting a site that I paste below. I don't see what part of the word I click on the address bar or the search bar for the correction because there is no mouse cursor. After clicking on tools and options cancel, the mouse cursor appears (I make no changes to the options) or when I click on customize in the navigation bar, then the icons I click on Cancel again without modification, and the mouse cursor appears again (as you can understand some trigger for windows option implementation even without change is done). I uninstalled firefox 10 just for this reason. Back to Firefox 9. Safe mode - same problem happens. So no problem addon. And the same thing happened in another operating system, so this isn't a fault of a facility.

    Problem solved for me in the last version of firefox v.10.0.1

  • Bookmark shortcut does not work if the mouse cursor is focused in the version of the flash plugin.

    I tried to open the bookmark panel shortcut [ctrl + shift + B] buttons when the mouse cursor is focused with the flash plugin. But it does not open. But I clicked on the page and he's trying again, he opens the bookmark panel.
    Try the following link
    [Example: https://learnable.com/courses/a-crash-course-in-mobile-web-design-195]

    This may or may not be a problem.
    It's just a suggestion...

    This is a limitation of the works in Firefox.

    If a plugin is developed, which makes this shortcut key is no longer so he treats all keys work.

    You have to click outside the plugin, if you need to use a keyboard shortcut.

  • How to control the mouse cursor using EEG signals

    Hello world

    I am doing a project of cursor control using EEG signals. The idea is to find a way to all signals in a specific period of time in order to find the signal Ridge. Then, the highlight will be a parameter to control the position of a cursor.

    Can someone tell me the function that allows you to control the mouse cursor?

    I also found an old topic asking about it (http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Moving-Mouse-using-Labview/td-p/1285842) and I run an example of this link ( smercurio_fc) program. My cursor is stuck in the upper left corner of the screen, I can't control it again. Can you tell me how to run this program and to use the windows API?

    Thank you in advance.

    Sorry, but I can't do it for you.

    As I advised, you should take the free online tutorials. You clearly lacks the basic concepts of LabVIEW, as data flow.

    Things more: in your real applicaton does not use DAQ Assistant, screw Express are generally not optimal for data acquisition. It is safer and better use good DAQmx live. What is the equipment you use? Sampling rate, etc.?

    Why do you need to read data files? For testing? I thought that you will acquire data active, right? In your VI generate you some signals and write in a data file. Is this also for testing?

    There are several constructs in your VI which simply don't make sense.

    So again, I really suggest to go through online Core1-2 teaching material, which is accessible if you are a student, or if you have shared services provider license... It will really help.

  • Laptop screen stays black with the mouse cursor only after that comes the HP and Windows logo

    Hi all

    No, my laptop model is HP Pavilion dv6 1337tx. My OS is Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit. So, today, I shut my laptop down by force by pressing the power button because it did not at this time. Then the next time I turned it the wrong problem started. Whenever I'm on the HP logo sometimes and then the Windows logo comes also. But then the screen stays black and the mouse cursor appears. So, what can be the cause of this problem? I also tried to open with 'safe mode' and 'safe mode with command prompt', but they did not help either.

    Note - I tried the method of discharge after taking off the battery and holding down the power button. He could not help. All LEDS are working properly. I have no extra monitor, so I can't check the display elsewhere. Also, I ran the memory test which shows that everything is fine. Please suggest what I can do now as I can not enter the laptop now. What can be the reason?

  • Zoom hides the mouse cursor

    In Captivate, I added as well a zoom and a cursor in the same blade. The zoom area hides the mouse cursor, which is a problem because the idea of the zoom area has been to highlight mouse click! Yes, the mouse is above the zoom area.

    My idea is to have a small size video, with zooms on the areas I want to talk to.

    Hi again

    Okay, so it looks we are hurt to understand what you want.

    Initially, I assumed that you were unhappy that the width or the height does not reflect changes in the frame on the right for the same area.

    Am I right to say that you want to see the following behavior?

    Suppose that you have inserted a zoom area. The Zoom destination is located at 200 x 200 pixels. The Zoom area is set to 100 x 100 pixels. You change the area of Zoom 100 x 50 pixels (effectively reducing the width or the height of 50%. So, you want to verify that the Destination of Zoom is also affected by 50%. If the new Destination of Zoom and then automatically might change 200 x 100 pixels.

    What are you willing? If so, outside calculation methodically and configure manually, there is no way for that to happen. You (and those who want to achieve) must submit a form would ask.

    Until then, your best bet is to zoom in an image and not a region.

    See you soon... Rick

  • The mouse cursor disappears when iTunes movie go full screen

    This isn't a question... actually I found a hack solution to this bug and I wanted to share it with other people having the same problem.

    Since the upgrade of the OS X El Capitan, I'm having a problem with my cursor disappears randomly. It is very repetitive if I start a video in iTunes with the enlarged screen and the cursor disappears. Indeed, after entering mode full-screen, iTunes mask the cursor of the mouse that is predictable. The problem is that iTunes may not reappear there again once, for example, when I go to another office for a temporary job.

    Move the mouse does nothing, escaping mode full screen does not come back. It is very annoying. Like I had never had such a frustrating experience prior to a new installation of El Capitan 10.11.3 and update iTunes to 12.3.3, I thought that this is due to the update to iTunes. So, I made another new facility of El Capitan, this time without updating iTunes. But the problem still exists. It is interesting that I had this problem on my MacBook Pro 17 "end 2011 and not with my iMac 21.5" mid-2009!

    After a little research, I found that this bug is not because of El Capitan, and happened randomly in the other years dating back to Tiger and maybe before.

    Only new change I had made in my MBP Preferences system , was in the part of accessibility, and it was related to Zoom. I had always used this feature, but I put the Zoom Style 'full-screen'. This time (after the new installation of El Capitan), I had changed to 'Picture-in-Picture'.

    I changed the Style of zoom "full screen" even once, and the problem resolved.

    If this does not work for you, can be debilitating, other options, such as 'Use keyboard shortcuts to zoom' or 'Use of scrolling with keys of change to zoom movements,' can solve the problem.

    We all know that it is a bug, and he has been there for a long time. I found that many people had reported it to Apple, but the problem persists.

    For those of you who want to use the zoom "Picture-in-Picture" style, or set the zoom style full screen does not solve the problem of their mouse disappears, I will mention a few ways to recover the mouse cursor. The following solutions are applied to a mouse cursor disappeared after entering the movie to iTunes (or any other application) full screen.

    1. Move the mouse until the switching Office brings back the cursor. Now, you can switch the desktop computer and do whatever you want. (It's easier work, at least for me).
    2. Use Alt - Tab to switch to another program; This will bring the mouse cursor.
    3. Press Ctrl + F2 to activate the Apple menu. (You can also move your cursor away to top left and click to activate the menu.)
    4. Press Ctrl + up arrow (or swipe up with 4 fingers on the touchpad) to activate the control of the Mission.

    You can also find other ways to retrieve the cursor of your mouse.

    Hope this can help you with the mouse pointer disappears.

    In MBP El Capitan the pointer of the mouse is where you assign to ' picture in picture ' or 'full screen '.

    If you miss your mouse pointer, accessibility-> display "Shake mouse to locate" check to find your mouse pointer. It should be there.

    Note: you have posted in the discussion of the Mavericks, should have used the ElCapitan discussion...
