Cursor jump: Any ideas on what is causing this?

Your palm could be bumping the touchpad. I know this happens to me a lot. I also have this same netbook and noticed I am bumping the touchpad more often.

is a switch to select the speed of the cursor movement or DPI, but does not work very well ..!

I rarely use the mouse except when editing documents. Have noticed that the mouse performance seems to vary between different programs. Would try variety of browsers and see if that makes a difference! All of my devices are behaving badly today. Ready to revert to stone tablet and chisel!!! :-/ Good luck to you, and happy holidays!

This mouse is laser tracking, it may need a mousepad if the surface is too much mixed jump colors.

i to used the mouse on mac. there is no ay to fix this. this happened because of the os(operating system) it recognizes them as sub clicks so the answer is no

I have the same issue. It's very annoying when i want to close a tab and move to another one. The delay between pushing the middle button and the action occurring is so long that sometimes I close the tab i hovered my pointer over, not the one I clicked.

I had the same problem. I disabled the drag feature of the elan touchpad and then downloaded touchfreeze - freeware that seems to have fixed the problem.

It rarely happens to me but I make sure the mouse pad under the mouse is in a stable position and not tilted. And/or just make sure the mouse is stopped altogether when you are not using it, I understand that when you are in a hurry to lift your hand off of the mouse it can still be moving by the action of you hand being in a hurry. Hope these suggestions help.

I've had no issues with motion skipping since I've had it. I just made sure to download the latest drivers and firmware for the mouse after I plugged it in. I would easily recommend this mouse if that was something holding you back from buying it.

Yes, I have also experienced this problem. The cursor goes haywire when plugged in. Sometimes worse than others.

Spotty response to double click... I stopped using it and went back to traditional mouse.

Have you turned off your touchpad? It's easy to move the cursor around accidentally with one hand while mousing with the other.

I experienced the same. The solution is to switch the keyboard off before closing.

mine scroll like this, go down 15 lines, you move fingers, it jump up 10 lines.sometimes you just touch 2 fingers to the pad, it "scrolls" up or down, its choice.

It should work very normally. I can only guess. Maybe you have software running in the background? spyware or other interfearing with it? You would have to define "smoothly". Spyware can cause lagging from when you move the mouse to when the cursor moves. Try it on more than one computer to make sure it is the mouse and not the computer it is being used on.

Same problems here: middle clicks are often ignored, and when they do register, there is a very noticeable delay. Trying to use this mouse with GIMP (a graphics editor) is a nightmare.

it changes how fast the cursor moves on the screen ("count per inch" of pixels)
