The mouse is very confusing - makes it very difficult to use

Hello

I use a number of sessions of VMWare Player on my i7 Windows system to separate processes.  I don't do anything in my main boot environment is nice and clean.  I have a player for web browsing, one for email and a few others (game, video editing, etc.).  This separation gives me an easy backup/restore option for any computer virtual as well as prevention 1 VMS are attacked/infected/hacked/etc most I can lose, it is what is in this virtual machine.

Something broke all of a sudden.  I don't know if it was the last update for VMware tools or some change made by windows update or maybe even a setting that I did.

But now, my mouse is very confused.  In the virtual machine, it seems to work correctly.  But the reservoir of the virtual machine does not follow the mouse the same way.  So I could spend my mouse here to edit the text and the container I'm above the control in the upper bar.  And when I click on the mouse, the mouse twice on the bar happens to click on the X to close the window (or one of these options.)  It's very frustrating and quite new.

If this only affects the 2nd mouse causing the VMWare control bar to jump down from the top of the main screen.  Within the container, the mouse seems to work perfectly.

I did some research.  All of my text is set to the smallest size (the most common fix I found.)  I have re-installed VMWare tools.  I tried to change the mouse settings in my VM and the primary host environment.

If I CTRL-Alt and move the mouse - it changes, but once again quickly confused.  It's to the point where I can't click without 1st checking the top of the window on my main screen or risk losing work, etc..

Any help is GREATLY appreciated!

Thank you

If anyone is interested in distance, I finally solved the problem.  My guess is that I could have reinstalled the main operating system.  Instead, I've upgraded to 10 Windows and then installed Player 7.1.2.  On the plus side, no more problems with 2 pointers mouse with one randomly showing where and when he wanted.

On the negative, I always have to press Ctrl-Alt to get to the VMWare bar at the top of the window.  But it is a small price to pay for now to be productive again.

FWIW, my guess is that upgrading to 7.1.2 is really what makes the difference.

    Hello

    Control Panel - mouse, TouchPad controls are there and you may also have a TouchPad icon in the
    Taskbar near the clock in the bottom right. Also there are probably shortcut keys that can affect the TouchPad so
    see the Forums and the Support from the manufacturer of your system.

    The sensitivity of the TouchPad, special areas or any function of the snap and other parameters can play a role.

    I hope this helps.

  • Why the search function of 25 FF is more difficult to use?

    I use a lot search in FF. In earlier versions, the options to highlight all and case-sensitive were next to the search field, all clustered together on the lower left corner of the screen. Starting with version 25, 2 options are pushed all the way to the right of the screen, which makes them difficult to access (in fact, at first I thought that they had been abducted).

    What is the logic behind this change and how to configure the search formatting as previous versions bar? (Please don't suggest the use of any add-ons, FF is running slowly enough as it is).

    Thank you!

  • Is the mouse Magic Mouse from Apple, a Wi - Fi connection or a Bluetooth device?

    I use a final model of the Apple Magic Mouse with my latest model MacBook and OS X and I think it's very nice design the Magic Mouse is useless for my needs but it is not accurate at all.

    I found that the mouse is very difficult to manage these moments I need to move the mouse slowly as 1 to 5 pixels, I can feel that the mouse does not respond immediately when I start moving it after a few seconds of inactivity.

    I use a very old super cheap Microsoft mouse (wired) and it is very functional, but of course not as nice as the Magic Mouse

    After exploring all settings and configurations of the Apple Magic Mouse, I would essentially mouse either USB or Wi - Fi alternatives, but in the meantime I told us the Apple Magic Mouse uses Bluetooth technology which is not as good and accurate as Wi - Fi.

    Plug mouse says it uses Bluetooh and wireless so now I'm confused and I was wondering if there is anyone here who might give clarification about this.

    No Wi - Fi.

  • Access to the context using the keyboard rather than the mouse menu?

    I'm back using Windows (7) to my new job after using the iOS for 15 years.

    Now I find I want to use the keyboard to do many things that you can do with the mouse on iOS.

     
    The "Accelerator" keys are very practical. So - if I type , then

    - then I activate the command paste in Word, for example.

    Access keys are also available via a context menu. However, the only way to access the context menu - I can find - is a right click with the mouse.

     
    So now I'm back using the mouse AND keyboard, which sort of defeats the purpose.
     

    I find no way to pop open a context menu by using the keyboard. Any ideas?

    Unfortunately, if it is not a "integrated" way, it won't help, because I can't make any changes by programming to my computer either. It's very tight here :(

    Thanks for any help.

    A quick search on Google reveals that it is the key to use - if your keyboard has it:

    Hi John,.

    Software installation under Windows XP using Virtual PC option will not help. However, you try to install the software by using the compatibility mode and choose Windows XP as the previous version. The success of this method is not guaranteed because the mouse is very old.

    You try to install the software for the mouse in Windows XP compatibility mode.

  • AD2P Drop Outs when you use the mouse BT

    Hello

    Someone else had this problem? Tecra M4 with Builtin BT 2.0 + EDR radio, Windows XP SP2, any version of BT stack of v4.00.23 from... currently on v5.10.01.

    With the help of the mouse BT (IOGear GME225B - http://www.iogear.com/main.php?loc=product&Item=GME225B) works very well.

    Using headphones AD2P (Anycom BSH-100 - http://www.anycom.com/products/bluetooth_audio_video/anycom_stereo_headset_bsh_100/?id=102&partno=CC3300) also works very well.

    If I try to use them as well at the same time the mouse is very insensitive or the sound in the headphones down a lot. In later versions of the battery BT things seem to be a little better... but not much.

    Does not seem to matter if my WI - FI radio is on/in-use or not... tried both thinking that may be the issue.

    I think that I read somewhere that one of these devices is one master of BT, the other slave BT... and try to use them both at the same time is causing issues for radio and or BT stack to switch back and forth between the two modes. Is this correct?

    I thought that perhaps a BT mouse and/or helmet AD2P which was BT compatible 2.0 could help... but not been able to find one... would it? Any recommendations?

    Thank you

    This depends on the version of your mouse Bluetooth equipment and helmet, they are probably older. The book BT module is updated and should work fine. Some helmets also have a poor hardware Protocol so several communication connection can cause problems with the quality of service.

    Master-slave switching should not happen in this combination, but if so, then it happens only once and should be no problem more.
    You can try to lower the quality of the sound of the headphones in Bluetooth settings in the "details".
    This will probably improve the behavior described.

  • Menu popup toolbar disappears immediately after moving the mouse.

    Can I call context menu on toolbars, but now when I move the mouse to select an item listed, the menu disappears, preventing me from making a selection.

    Yes, I have search and yes I found a lot of topics with the same problem. None of them have any solution unfortunately, some are not answered at the and none of them am I able to view of (the anti spam featured here think I type in the wrong number when I'm not).

    Yes, my mouse drivers are up to date. Everything on my own installation is up-to-date, and I mean everything.

    Your comment, however, got me thinking, and a few clicks later, I discovered the exact nature of the problem. X - mouse.

    With X-mouse (currently enabled on Windows systems through the PowerToy TweakUI from MS - previously a separate PowerToy), the menu disappears when the mouse is moved. For those who do not know X-Mouse, it's a tweak by which the focus always follows the mouse. Very useful for several windows where you don't have to click to get the focus. Turn off completely eliminates the problem.

    Unfortunately, I personally used X-mouse for 15 years and you don't much like turn it off just for a program that cannot deal with an established mouse control mode of long date. I hope that this can be corrected for firefox, but I won't hold my breath.

    Nevertheless, thanks for your help Chris and cor - el. It is much appreciated. At least now I know why it's happening.

  • The mouse starts to spin and the.

    When using my mouse, it constantly off and then turn it back on. The computer plays the little noise when something is plugged into a usb port and then again as if back in and being out.

    I've tried several different usb ports on the computer in the back and front. Curiously, it may solve the problem, but only briefly. After a day or two in a different usb port, it will start to close and turn it back on.

    I can even pick up the mouse and shake it or move it, and he'll do it too. I know its off because the sensitivity settings are on and 4 have little led lights on it which light up. These are turned off when it stops working.

    The mouse is very unpredictable, that he will work for a whole day or maybe even more without any problem. Or the exact opposite and turn on so frequently its unusable.

    I tried repeatedly to plug it into another computer to see if the problem persists, but as far as I can tell it does not persist and/or mouse "behaves" when he's in another computer.

    I looked at pilot info and tried to find another driver but have no luck. The computer and the mouse are 20 months old and has a (Dell) warranty of 2 years. But the driver info is dated (2006).

    Someone can help me or have any ideas as to what is the problem and or if my mouse is replaced under my extended warranty?

    I would contact Dell on the replacement warranty.

  • The mouse will not suddenly drag clips

    I'm in the middle of a commercial project using Premiere Pro v 13.3 Blue Fox.  All of a sudden I can't drag clips on the timeline with my mouse autour.  I just updated my OS X El Capitan v 10.11.6 and I suspect that maybe that's the problem, but not sure.  The batteries in the mouse are very good and any other program that I use; the mouse works fine.

    I can click on a clip, delete etc. using the keyboard, but no travel and no dropouts.  If I click on an element to set, red trim bar shows but when I try to set the scrolls any chronology and without cropping.  Its as if the first does not include mouse controls more.  I checked the forums and this problem has happened before to others however none of the solutions I've seen so far does apply in this case.
