OS X V10.7 Lion :: Cursor Not Changing To Hand On Links

Jun 27, 2012

I just noticed as I was testing web sites in Safari that my cursor remains as an arrow instead of turning into a hand on images or text that are links. This is new behavior.

Intel Mac :: Mouse Cursor Changes From Arrow To IBeam To Hand At Will

Feb 7, 2012

my mouse arrow cursor changes at will - it becomes an ibeam or a hand (like the one used when pointing to a link) and then will switch back to an arrow. I use a Logitech wireless  mouse with plugged in USB receiver.  I turn the mouse off whenever I stop work. I changed the batteries on the Logitech mouse yesterday and it had no effect. I tried using the Magic Mouse (which I love, but which has problems of its own - it eats batteries for breakfast and it's not consistently recognized when I wake up the iMac and I have to resort to the Logitech mouse to get going so I rarely use it) to see if it did the same thing and it does. I am still running 10.6.6 and haven't added any software or done anything strange.  I did update Firefox to 9.0.1 a while back, but things were fine a long time after I did that.

OS X :: Dock Not Working/cursor Is Not Changing?

Nov 20, 2008

So, I first started noticing this problem a couple of days ago.

1. My dock doesn't work right. I have it set to auto hide/show. It worked fine up until now. Now for it to show, I have to click where it normally would appear, then I have to click in another window to hide it.

2. My cursor in Firefox, and other applications, doesn't change when hovering over links. It gets damn irritating now, as I'm used to links changing the cursor.

Any ideas what may be causing these problems? I'm running 10.5.5 with all latest software patches on an early '08 Macbook.

Software :: Safari Visited Links Not Changing Color On Google Search Pages?

Feb 28, 2009

Something I've done in the past few days has caused Safari to not change color for visited links "only" on Google search pages, which is where it's most needed. This is still working fine on FireFox. I tried creating another user account and it works fine with that...just not with my primary account.

I've done all the typical things...repaired permissions, repaired disk, completely reset Safari to default and made sure all caches, etc. were cleaned out...both manually and with Onyx, reset associated .plist files, history, cookies, private browsing...

Returning to a Google search page still shows all visited links as blue, as if they'd never been visited. Another clue is if I log out of my Google account (which I have to be logged into 24/7 for Gmail, Google bookmarks, iGoogle, etc., it starts working, then stops working as soon as I log into my Google account again. I posted this on Google Groups but got no response.

This also works fine on my wife's Mac, so it's definitely a problem just in my user account. I know I could just add a new account and use that, but it would mean re-installing all 70 applications I have now installed as they're not setup for use except with my account. I'd like to avoid that and find the actual culprit. BTW, this worked fine for a long time...just quit working about a week ago, but it wasn't in conjunction with any new hardware or software.

OS X :: Snow Leopard Mouse Cursor Image Not Changing?

Nov 28, 2009

So I recently got a new iMac that has Snow Leopard and I noticed that this is about the second time that my mouse cursor has gotten stuck... not stuck in location, but the image of the cursor.

I'll move over a textbox and then it changes to the I bar cursor, but then I move away and it stays that... I move over a link and it turns into the finger icon, then I move away and it's still a finger.

Still in the beginnings of diagnosing, but I do have two user accounts logged in. The other account only has a Safari window open though, nothing exciting.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Are There Hand Gestures To Operate With Windows

May 27, 2012

The hand gestures on the Macbook Air tracpad is awesome. As I am getting familar with the hand gestures on the trackpad, I was wondering if there are ways to control windows. Below are some of the things I like to know if there are hand gestures for it: Minimize current windowMaximize current windowClose current windowIn Safari, close current tabIn Safari, move from one tab to the next 

These are what I can think of it right now. It would be so nice if there hand gestures on the trackpad.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Can't See The Cursor On The Log On Screen?

Apr 16, 2012

I have a 15 inch MacBook Pro with an anti glare screen.  I am running Lion 10.7.3. It is being used in bright sunlight in southern greece very sucessfully apart from the fact I cant see the cursor on the logon screen to select the user I want to log in as. Setting the cursor to a larger size using the universal access options works really well once I have logged in but at the moment I have to dash for the nearest shade to be able to see the screen to log in.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: TimeMachine Won't Create Hard Links For Replacement Drive If Not Connected

May 26, 2012

With TimeMachine, I backup two external drives (let's call them drive A and B). Recently, drive B broke and I restored the data on a replacement drive and gave the volume the same name as the broken one had. I made TimeMachine aware of the fact that this new drive corresponds to the old one by using the "tmutil -a associatedisk" command as described here: [URL]When TimeMachine started the next backup, it did not perform all full backup of the new drive, though still way more than it should. So far so god. 

The problem is: if TimeMachine performs a backup while the new drive (the replacement of drive B) is not connected, it does not create the hard links for it. Drive A is not connected either, though hard links for it show up in the Backups.backupdb folder for this backup. If the replacement drive is connected the next time, TimeMachine will perform a full backup of it ... most likely because the previous backup does not contain any hard links.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Cursor/trackball Brief Freezes?

I am noticing that my cursor freezes or should I say it stalls for 1 - 4 seconds after various operations like opening, closing, reloading windows, or switching tools in Finale, Photoshop, etc. I'm using the Kensington expert mouse (trackball) with their latest drivers. I used it on my old G5 before I upgraded to this Mac Pro, and it's worked fine for many years.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Files Stick To Cursor When Dragging And Won't Let Go

I seem to have a problem that happens frequently. If I click and drag a file when I unclick (drop the file) the mouse/cursor won't let go of the file. The file kind of sticks to the arrow. I have to either rapid fire click, hold down esc and click, right click, to let go of the file.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Safari Title Bar Disappears With Cursor?

Mar 20, 2012

For the last two weeks, when using Safari, the top bar which shows the word Safari, File etc (can't remember what it is called) disappears unless I move my cursor up to it.  I have checked Safari preferences and System preferences and can't figure out how to stop it from disappearing.  I suspect it is a check box. 

I have tried to check the "view" option to hide/show and neither solves the problem.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Arrow Cursor Pointer Jumps And Teleports Across Screen Every Second

Mar 13, 2012

my iMac has this glitch, the cursor jumps or teleports across screen every second. I move it and then it jumps again, always jumps to the same place, same exact pixel everytime. I try to move the cursor quickly (to open safary or hit stand by) but no matter where the pointer is across the 27" screen, it teleports like a clock. 

I changed batteries on the trackpad and magic mouse and it didn't work. I turned mouse off, left trackpad on and it didn't work. I tried using a wired mouse and it didn't work. this is obviously not related to the input device. 

I would like to restore the input driver with time-machine but I have no idea where the drivers reside in the machine. I also have no idea how to roll-back or reinstall such drivers on a Mac. 

this is not the jittery, erratic, jumpy bug. When this glitch is triggered and I have absolutely no clue how or why, sometimes it starts 1 minute after reboot, sometimes 30 minutes; when it is triggered it starts to teleport every second, the arrow jumps to the same spot. it's unbearable since it renders the machine useless. I have to press the power button to send it to sleep, resume and then the glitch is gone, only to come back 5 or 30 minutes afterwards. 

Finally, this thing happened last year in november. I wasn't able to solve it back then so I had to reinstall the whole OS Lion, that meant waiting 6 hours for it to download from the appStore (because Apple doesn't allow me to keep a copy LION on my system). I think that's plain silly since it's obviously a very mundane (but annoying) glitch and there's got to be a workarround that doesn't require system restore.

MacBook Pro :: 2011 Cursor Freeze Waking Up Since Upgrading To Lion?

Mar 28, 2012

Last week I upgraded my 2011 MacBook Pro (purchased July 2011) to 10.7.3. Now when I lift the lid to wake up the computer there is a several second lag time before the cursor can move. Under 10.6.8 the computer woke up instantly and the cursor was ready to use immediately. Is this a Lion bug and is there any work around, since I find this delay annoying? Not annoying enough to revert back to Snow Leopard, but I really liked how fast this computer is and don't appreciate Lion slowing down its wake up time. Nothing else seems slow since the upgrade, in fact applications seem to be opening even faster.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: 10.7.4 Mail Signature Position - Simply Place It At The Cursor?

Jul 4, 2012

I can make no sense where Mail is going to place a signature I choose. Sometimes it's in the middle, sometimes at the bottom (invisible without scrolling). A few minutes ago it was placed a the top, above all my text! I feel I have no control over this. I see no algorithm choices in Signatures or General preferences. 

Is there a way to make the default the simplest, most obvious location: At the cursor? That's when and where I want it when I choose it.
