Oops. Got the two devices reversed. Thanks Ronni. So I am still curious about all of what I asked except where it says unplug the trackpad, switch it off instead, and vice versa. The last part still applies as well. Leaving your pen resting on the trackpad (the wireless one as well) can cause u

Hi Ken, As well as Ronni's relevant question I have some other things you could try to determine if the problem lies with the wireless mouse or the trackpad. Does the problem stop when you unplug the trackpad? If the problem is still there, try plugging the trackpad back in and switching off t

Hi Ken, Ok, we would only be guessing until we receive more details on the wired mouse you are using and details on the Bluetooth Trackpad? Brand, is the mouse an Apple Pro optical etc. Also are you using USB Overdrive or any extras? When you setup the bluetooth trackpad in System Preferences

Hi Ken, Like Carlo I don't understand what you mean by a "Desktop Pointer". Do you mean your 'cursor' (mouse pointer) that is flying across the screen? Are you using a wired or wireless mouse? Cheers, Ronni Sent from Ronni's iPad On 10/05/2012, at 1:54 AM, cm wrote: > Hi Ken, > > Others ma

Stephen, On any drive use Disk Utility to create a 'New Image' on that drive. The name you choose for 'Save as' will be the name of the .sparseimage file you are creating. The name you give for 'Name:' further down is the name of the virtual disk that appears whenever you open the .sparseimage
