when you are sure that you've clicked the top of a window on the desktop only once, occasionally it will slide off the screen and can be found in the dock In this state, you cannot select objects or links, and if the dock is set to hide when not used, it will not reappear when the cursor moved to that edge of the screen when drawing the cursor over free space on the desktop (no buttons clicked) you see a translucent box like you'd see if the same thing were done holding the left mouse button down. panels on the screen stick to the cursor and move around with it until you click something else (sometimes Esc works for me, more often the right half of the lower trackpad plate after four or five tries). I'd like to know how many people see this set of symptoms:
(Funny, did anyone out there get grounded plugs with their computers? Maybe the mfg decision for 2-prongs was made by the same people who insist on shipping everything with those oh-so-elegant no-button mice, millions of which are at the back of drawers because their owners took one look and immediately bought Logitechs.) Grounding issues are also mentioned for another problem in the Apple troubleshooting info, recommendation to replace power adapter with one using a three-prong plug. The cursor grabbing and not letting go is behavior I suspect is due to the trackpad hardware, less likely the driver, but that's possible. Once the ratio gets down to one productive pointer action to five frantic attempts to get the thing to let go, you know you're a fool to try. From Duncan's description and my experience, his computer is probably belly-up by now (nine weeks since his post).
I'm going to keep posting this information everywhere I can until somebody with service experience and knowledge of MacBook trackpad controls tries to track down the posters with these issues.
