Cursor jump When I am typing, the cursor suddenly jumps back to an earlier line or word. Any ideas on what is causing this?

Do you have the ASUS Eee 1015PED?I have used it for hours on end and it still doen't get hot enough to cause any issues.

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.

>>Your palm could be bumping the touchpad.This is a common problem. There is one other thing I know of from my experience working for a large, mainframe computer company back in the day. In those times, quite a bit of data input was done by creating punchcards at a keyboard and machine made especially for that purpose. Once in a while, a customer would complain about extra spaces appearing in their data. A common cause was some old gal doing the keypunching whose puppies were getting a little droopy, if you know what I mean. Every now and again they would brush that spacebar and, voilà, an extra space, which the operator would, of course, swear that she had not typed. Just something to keep in mind. >>Your palm could be bumping the touchpad.This is a common problem.

Thanks. I will try to keep my hands up high and see if that solves the problem.

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.

This happened to me. There is a small reset hole on the mouse. Put the end of a paperclip in it and hold for about 20-30 sec to do a reset. It should fix the problem

Hi,I haven't had any issues with that so far. Keyboard seems responsive. I typed 2/3 of an article and had no problems.

There is a backspace. I read somewhere that shift + backspace will work as a delete but I have not tried this. If that doesn't work try ctrl + backspace.

Yes. When the keyboard is in control a cursor appears. Functions just like a laptop. Works well.

Yes. It makes it kind of awkward to get used to. If you do a lot of typing I suggest a different board. When first getting used to it I would hit the enter key or backslash a lot when going for the backspace.

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!

Has anyone tried holding down the shift key when using scroll wheel? That works just fine scrolling left to right on my 2007 DotMouse. I would be curious to know results as I need to replace the DotMouse with something similar.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around "tendency to type loud." Is that something like a 'lead foot?' My keyboard clicks are audible; no one has commented that it is louder or quieter than any other keyboard I have had, but it has been noticed that I type faster. However, sadly does not eliminate the mistakes. We think the keys are a tad bit larger than other keyboards we have had.

yikes! sorry I haven't had this problem. try to make sure you're typing everything in correctly and that before you type it in there are no spaces or something. im so sorry.

Never had a problem like that. The keys are sensitive, you may have touched it lightly and caused it to double click. Try hitting more firmly. This has been the best gaming keyboard I've ever owned!! Of course I own the Deluxe Apex, not the raw.

I haven't had this problem at all with this keyboard. You can type email and texts just like you would on your computer and move the cursor around the body of text with the arrow keys. You can jump whole single characters, whole words, paragraphs, etc. by using the command option and control keys in conjunction with the arrows.The ability to use the arrow keys is what really allows this and my iPhone to allow me to write email on the road almost as readily as on the computer.

That has nothing to do with the keyboard itself. That's the tablet in general, disable it under settings... I don't have mine in front of me right now but look under keyboard settings...

No it's not normal. Once I move the cursor to power off, sometimes I have to press enter several times before it powers down but when it does it goes down immediately.

I have not had this problem at all. I am a heavy user, my keyboard sees lots of action

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

I have not experienced that. I have seen that in the past with older PCs/laptops where the system was so bogged down that typing and mouse movements were delayed. I'm typing with it now and everything is "live" and in synch.
