While you type in a word document or an e-mail, the cursor jumps abruptly to another line?

I am sure that this happened to me on an old laptop and think that it some sort of virus of valet.  While typing an e-mail, I suddenly find I jumped to the previous line or down to the email earlier I respond to.  Very frustrating, because I need to delete what has just been typed, return the cursor to its correct position and then enter again what I wrote.  This can happen several times over the seizure of an e-mail message.

This happens all the time, but fairly regularly in the e-mails and occasionally in word documents.

If you have a laptop and press the button which is probably the reason.  If you do there is an application called Touch pad pal http://tpp.desofto.com/

It stops at the touch pad to interfere

If she doesn't have a touchpad it can't hurt to search for malware

  • How can I stop my cursor jumping around while you type

    The cursor jumps around while I type.  Sometimes what I just typed disappears.

    I'll guess that you are using a laptop with a touchpad? If Yes, go to control panel and see if you can adjust the sensitivity of it, because chances are you're grazing while typing.

    I hope this helps.

  • Cursor moves automatically while you type

    Original title: when typing (particularly e-mail), if I stop typing a few moments my cursor rolls over all email.

    The cursor sometimes jumps to the area of topic, the position of the sender of the previous one, in the middle of a sentence, at the end of the email - you see the idea.  Indeed, the cursor jumped just to the 'previous' word at the end of the word "cursor" at the time I was typing.

     

    Hi mimi,

     

    When you type, the cursor automatically goes to different places.

     

    The question may be due to the corrupted drivers.

     

    1 did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    2. What is brand and model computer?

    3. using a laptop or desktop?

    4. using a wireless mouse?

    5. have you ever tried to disconnect and reconnect the mouse?

     

    I suggest you follow the steps mentioned below:

     

    Method 1: update the driver mouse

     

    See the site:

    Updated a hardware driver that is not working properly

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/update-a-driver-for-hardware-that-isn ' t-work correctly

     

    Method 2:

     

    If it is a laptop, you can try to decrease the sensitivity of the touch pad, a desk with an optical mouse to try to keep it on a rough surface or try to reduce the sensitivity of the mouse.

     

    Refer to the section to change how the mouse pointer works in the site:

    Change the settings of the mouse

  • When you type, the cursor jumps around. How can I correct this situation?

    When you type, the cursor jumps around.  How can I correct this situation?

    It is a very common problem when users become familiar with a new laptop. Either your palm/wrist/cuff/bracelet is touching the touchpad as you type or the touch pad sensitivity is set too high and reacts to strong strikes.
    • Someone to watch you while you type to see if you accidentally touch touchpad of the notebook.
    • Go to the control panel mouse configuration and reduce the sensitivity of the touchpad.
    • Make sure you use the latest version of the driver from the manufacturer of the laptop for the touchpad and update if a new becomes available.
    • Disable the touchpad entirely in favor of a wireless laptop mouse.
    As noted previously, this is a very common problem and users are usually completely unaware they do even when it is pointed out to them.
  • When you type text, the cursor jumps ramdomly. How can this be repaired?

    Type the text in a word processor or an e-mail message, the cursor jumps randomly.  I know there's a relatively simple fix, but I don't know how to do it.

    New laptop yesterday. When you type, the cursor jumps back and letters are placed in the words entered previously?

    original title: keyboard probkem

    wendyjjll,
    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers community forum.

    Most likely, the problem is due to the sensitivity of your touchpad.  Whenever you type, your thumb probably affects the touchpad with the cursor to another location where you type.  You can set the sensitivity of your touchpad, or turn off the tapping by going into settings start, Control Panel, mouse and keyboard.  If it is not under that, the manufacturer of the laptop most likely installed custom software to control the touchpad.  Let us know what kind of cell phone, brand and model, and we will be able to help you.

    Thank you

  • Why the cursor jump to other places when you type?

    When you type, the cursor jumps to other lines or words, sometimes jumps 2 or 3 lines.  In addition, when you use arrow down, he jumps at the end of the page, instead of 2 or 3 lines of scrolling.

    Operating system is Vista, SP2, Dell Vostro A860.  Problem occurs especially during the seizure of the e-mail program.  I don't remember not all changes made on the PC, however, suddenly it was happening more often, so could increase after having chosen the system restore to return to a different restore point.  After the announcement of this issue, I've seen in many cases of this problem in the Microsoft Forums and after those suggestions concerning the sensitivity of the touchpad, I changed the sessions for Tablet and I think my problem is resolved.

  • When you write a sentence the cursor jumps at the beginning if I type too fast

    If I type too fast or even at a moderate speed my cursor jumps at the beginning or in another part of the sentence.  I type very slowly in order to complete a sentence.

    I'll guess that you are using a laptop with a touchpad? If Yes, go to control panel > mouse and then look for a tab that relates to your touch pad and then see if you can adjust the sensitivity. Chances are that you are hit while you type.

    I hope this helps.

    It is usually the pad especially on laptops.  Most of the (new) notebooks have a method to disable the touchpad but if there is not a trackpad boyfriend called software app that it shuts down while you type

    Hello

    Laptop?

    Check with the manufacturer of system support, documentation in line, or forums as there
    probably are shortcut keys that enable and disable the touchpad functions.

    Parameters for TouchPad located in the control panel - mouse (there may be several tabs with)
    Entries of TouchPad) and some have a utility that loads in the Notification area near clock on
    at the bottom right. There "may" be the sensitivity settings.

    ==========================================

    If necessary: (make sure that you have restarted at least once, if the above did not work) try to update
    the driver for the TouchPad.

    Panel of configuration-Device Manager - mice and pointing devices - Double click on touch pad
    -Pilot Tab - click on Update Driver (which is may not make anything like MS is far behind certifying)
    (drivers), now right CLICK on the touchpad and UNINSTALL.

    Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in).
    RESET

    This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB. This does not prevent the touchpad
    of work.

    The similar procedure on XP, Windows 7 and Vista is the same, except that we need to clear
    the device if it is present.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310575

    Then go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest touchpad drivers.

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.

    =================================

    This utility also allows to control the TouchPad:

    TouchFreeze
