Hardware :: Mousepad Recommendations - Jump Around A Little Bit?

Aug 25, 2009

I just bought an iMac with a wireless Mighty Mouse. I'm using it on an old table right now (until I move into a new place). It's an older table and there is some loss of luster when I'm using the mouse at causing it to jump around a little bit. I'm looking for a mousepad that'll look good and perform well. I'm thinking, if it's out there, an aluminum mousepad would be pretty cool to match the iMac.

MacBook :: Keyboard And Mousepad Not Responding

Feb 28, 2009

I have a 2.0 Alu. MacBook and it was fine this morning everything was working, I decided I wanted to play CoD so I switched to my Windows side. Everything was working as well and then I decided I wanted to use Leopard again. Thats when I noticed I couldn't use my mousepad and the keyboard wasn't responding. A Mac "Genius" told me to reinstall Mac OS X through Bootcamp but how can I do that?

MacBook :: Mousepad Stopped Clicking - Won't React To Taps

Jan 7, 2011

I did a research on apple boards and on this site, but while I see many people over the last couple years having the same problem, I don't see any solutions. All of the sudden, last night I discovered that my white late 2009 macbook mousepad stopped reacting to taps (as right and left clicks). The external mouse connected to the macbook operates properly I can track all over the mousepad, including the areas which previously reacted to tap-to-click (the bottom left and right side of the mousepad) when i double-tap the mousepad operates (as left button of the mouse) Singe tap in any area of mousepad does not do anything There is no feeling of a click when I press on areas which previously reacted to tapping, but for the life of me, because I have several computers, I don't remember if it supposed to click. So I wonder if it is a mechanical or a software problem. If it was a mechanical problem, how come the tracking is fine, and double-tap works?

Hardware :: Finding Mousepad That Works With Magic Mouse?

Jan 9, 2010

Love my Magic Mouse.

What I don't love is that it isn't mousepad friendly.

Well, at least with the most popular mousepads that are felt and rubber.

The Magic Mouse just hangs as you swipe the mouse across the pad.

Even hangs on the rubber Apple mousepad I bought at their corporate store in Cupertino.

When I use it on my wooden desktop it works beautifully. But weeks later my desktop has all sorts of nicks all over it from the constant back and forth motion.

Anyone can recommend the perfect mousepad? Perhaps an acrylic pad would work best? Please provide links
with anything you recommend.

Hardware :: Magic Mouse Wtih No Mousepad - Black Residue On Desk?

Jul 26, 2010

I do not have a mousepad with my magic mouse, because everyone I have tried just doesn't track very well at all. My wood desk seems to be perfect so I have been using that. However after a day of use I have all this black residue junk on my desk that I have to get out the spray cleaner and clean it up, which requires a lot of scrubbing. Has anyone else seen this? It seems like the black rubber pads are rubbing off on my desk....if anyone has had this problem what did you do to fix it? New Magic Mouse?

OS X :: Where Different Apps Jump From One Space To Another?

Feb 7, 2009

My query: anyone else have a problem where different apps suddenly jump from one space to another? For example: I'll have skype and mail open in space one, word/excel/ppt in two. When I switch from two to one to check my email, no problem. When I switch back to continue with ppt, i discover that my ppt palette has followed me to space one like a faithful dog, but then got lost there, apparently unable to find its way back to space two. So I go back up to space one to fetch him back home and then get back only to discover that the excel palette has gone looking for his friend in space three where I've got GE running! It's like an old Abott & Costello flick.

OS X :: Why Did Quicktime Make The Jump From 7 To X

Aug 28, 2009

I understand that X is a big change from the last iteration, but that kinda ruins the whole numbered updates.

Every major (numbered) update should be a big change so is there a reason this one is so special.

Unless X doesn't mean 10 but, rather, is a variable in which case it could very well equal 8.

MacBook Pro :: Processor Or SSD Jump - Performance?

Feb 26, 2010

I am ordering a Macbook Pro. I am waiting until March 16th and if no refresh I will order. Here is my 1 and only question. I have read all over so please stay on topic and done go on about wait for i7. I have been hehe but due to use it is pointless to me but I want the best as I am only out of pocket $200-$400 for this order. I want to know if it makes more sense to bump from 2.8Ghz to 3.06Ghz and get a 320GB 7200rmp HDD or stay down at the 2.8Ghz and get the 128GB SSD. I only use 40GB of space now so that is not an issue.

OS X :: When Scroll Down (using The Mouse) Just A Little Bit At A Time, The Screen Will Jump UP?

Oct 26, 2010

Running 10.6.4.

Occasionally, when I scroll down (using the mouse) just a little bit at a time, the screen will jump UP, before scrolling down. This happens quite frequently, but not consistently. It's incredibly annoying.

I thought it was the mouse, so I replaced it with a new one (used to have a Microsoft "Comfort Mouse," now I've got the Mighty Mouse), and it's still happening. My guess is it's some kind of software issue.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: File Icons Jump Around As Dragging Them?

May 15, 2012

When I'm dragging a bunch of files, say in list view, from one open folder window to another, what is the purpose of their jumping around from one configuration to another as I'm dragging them? Is this supposed to make dragging easier? I've been trying to live with this for five months now since getting my new Mac and the purpose of this is still lost on me. I thought it was somehow supposed to make seeing what you're dragging easier in some way, but I find these constant acrobatics to be simply annoying. This never happened in the pre-Lion OS, and after giving it a lengthy and fair trial, I still can't see the point of it. It is distracting and makes it harder to see what I am dragging and where.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

Hardware :: Does Bass Jump Really Work With IMac Sound?

Dec 11, 2010

Trying to add jump audio upgrade to my imac sound. The bass jump has great reviews but mostly for macbooks. They did not have one set up in Apple store so im on here to see what others might think of this product. My other choice as recommended by apple employee was the Bose companion 2. Only thing with this is they work from headphone in jack so i will have to keep them on all the time even when the imac speakers would have been fine for simple computing.

MacBook Pro :: Typing On Keyboard Make Cursor Jump Around?

Jul 19, 2007

I just got this new 17" powerbook two months ago. Everything seemed fine until this past weekend when I tried to do some work on it. No matter the program, Word, Quark etc., whenever i go to type in sentences or paragraphs, suddenly the cursor will jump to another area of the paragraph. There seems to be no consistency and I can't figure the cause.

I checked all the preferences and that doesn't seem to change it.

Could I have a faulty keyboard? Has anyone else heard of this and know what to do.

MacBook Pro :: Clicking Makes Cursor Jump To Dock

Jun 18, 2012

(For reference, this is happening on my new 15" Retina Macbook Pro, and the trackpad update has been applied.)I'm not sure if this is a trackpad issue or if I'm somehow clicking "wrong," but I've noticed this issue with my trackpad, and it hasn't happened on the previous macs I've used.About 20% of the time, when I click on something with my trackpad, the cursor jumps all the way down to the dock and clicks there. This ends up opening random programs and is generally annoying. Clicking also sometimes "deselects" and grays out the current window, which is generally odd.This typically happens when I'm working quickly or clicking the button hard, so I'm not sure if maybe there's a trackpad setting I don't understand or I'm inadvertantly making a multitouch gesture to select the dock? (Is that even possible?) Am interested to find out if this is something I'm doing wrong or if this is an actual trackpad issue.

MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012), Mac OS X (10.7.4)

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Can't Copy Files From Jump Drive Or Download Folder

Feb 22, 2012

I haven't been able to copy files from my downloads folder to Font Book, or more importantly, copy files from my jump drive to a folder on my desktop.I also can't copy images from a CD to my desktop. All instances give the error message window "The operation cant be completed because you dont have permission to access some of the items." I should have permission to copy everything, but I'm wondering if in the case of the fonts, the new Lion OS prevents you from using fonts without a license (even if they're free??) pretty clueless
