Sometimes my USB mouse acts up. I cannot move the mouse cursor until I hit the CAPS Lock key (on then off) Does this mean the USB port on the KB might be dying? Or is the KB dying? Or the USB port on the back of the tower is dying? A clue that might help....I see the light on the CAPS Lock key flashes at times. OK, just acted up and I had to hit the CAPS Lock key 3x to make it work again
That sounds like some piece of software that has been installed and is intended to provide some feature, not sure just what.
Check the System Preferences for a third party item (usually at the bottom of the window). Also check the Mouse Preferences for any added "features".
