have you checked the monitor/display settings? I bet you just need to adjust them.

In System Preferences.

“Not dead yet!”

Everything's as it should be there, unless there's something I should be looking at that I'm missing.

This only started happening when I upgraded to Word 2008 from 2004.

I should point out too, this isn't a consistent problem. Sometimes it does it, sometimes it doesn't. There's no rhyme or reason to it. Which makes it that much more baffling and annoying.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So at work I have these four big monitors connected to my computer. The only problem is sometimes I can't find my mouse pointer. Anyone know of any programs/settings that, say, give you a keyboard shortcut to make your mouse pointer get really big or something?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Is there a mouse finder option in the mouse control panel in 'Pointer Options'?

Ooh. Yes, yes there is!

“Not dead yet!”

I was wondering if that was what I'd have to do, Tep. It just did it again. I managed to capture an image of what it does.
