Re: Jerky Mouse
Hi Lorenzo, You are correct, Apple did release some early MacPros with mislabeling/miswiring problem. What happened was two wires got mislabeled. This didn’t happen when the Bluetooth module was added to the computer, but during the actual assembly of the Mac Pro. The Bluetooth module is a small chip placed on the motherboard, and it has to be connected to a tiny wire that runs to the Bluetooth antenna. But, I don't think that is the problem with the MacPro Chris has, because the bad bluetooth connection has only happened lately, not from purchase time. If Chris is concerned that it could be the wiring, he could take it to a technician and have it checked. Or, I do have a document showing how to fix the wiring.

Re: Jerky Mouse
Is it an Apple Magic Mouse? Is it running off an iMac? Is it close the machine? I had seen a wireless mouse that was slightly jerky to a MacPro that was a bit out of range and a blocked signal. So that's another thing to check as well…. Resetting SMC can also help with Bluetooth settings as well, so that's worth a try too.

Re: Jerky Mouse
Ok… 10.7.4 2 x 2.26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon 14Gb Ram MacPro 4 1Tb harddrives internal. 1Tb external for backing up (this is wired, not wireless) 24inch NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512 MB graphics Mouse has been like this for months. Can't remember when it started. It goes from working perfectly to lagging when moving, slightly jerky. Just barely perceptible sometimes but extremely annoying when you have to do a very fine photoshop retouch or anything fine. Forums have suggested that it could happen when there is a lot of processing happening but this doesn't seem to make sense to me. Daniels suggestion that it is too far away makes more sense but it can't be more than a metre. And anyhow, how come it is fine and then changes? I have turned off any other bluetooth. Forums have also suggested WiFi interference but surely Apple would have thought of that one?? I can live with it but just thought I'd give you guys a challenge ;) Thanks heaps Chris Griffiths Mac lover On 02/06/2012, at 12:28 PM, Ronda Brown wrote: Ok Chris, A bit more information from you please.

Re: Jerky Mouse
Thanks for more information Chris. Daniels suggestion that it is too far away makes more sense but it can't be more than a metre. And anyhow, how come it is fine and then changes? Distance certainly could cause jerkyness, as it has a spasmodic connection. Bluetooth does not have a long distance reception. Does it stop being jerky if you move the mouse closer? Forums have also suggested WiFi interference but surely Apple would have thought of that one?? Are you using a 5GHz Wireless Network or a 2.5GHz wireless network? If you have installed any mouse add-on, uninstall it, especially USB overdrive (uninstall not just remove the preference panel). Check a few other things you could try changing and then test to see if it helps. 1. Choose System Preferences from the Apple () menu, then choose Mouse from the View menu. Set the Tracking slider to adjust how fast the pointer moves as you move the mouse. 2. Try using a different surface to see if the tracking improves. 3. Turn the mouse over and inspect the sensor window. Use compressed air to gently clean the sensor window if dust or debris is present. Bandwidth intensive devices could also affect tracking.

Re: Jerky Mouse
I'm using a Belkin N300 300Mbps I have my iphone between the MacPro and the mouse. I use a 6MHz phone but only just bought it. You see, I can't even reply to your testing as it is working perfectly again!! Next time it jerks I will move it closer. Tried changing mouse mats etc no difference. I think it is software related.

Re: Jerky Mouse
Yes, I think it is distance. It happened again and I moved it closer and it stopped. Is there any way around not moving all my equipment?
