The pointer doesn’t move when you move the mouse.
The mouse is not connected properly, or its signals are not reaching the
computer, or there is a software error.
m Tu rn off the computer using the power button, check that the mouse cable
is connected properly, then restart the computer.
m Clean the mouse (see the Macintosh Reference).
m If you have another mouse or pointing device, try connecting and using it.
(Turn off the computer first.) If it works, there is probably something
wrong with your mouse.
m Restart the Macintosh with a different startup disk (such as the Disk Tools
disk or the Power Macintosh CD disc). If the mouse works, reinstall system
software on your startup disk.
m If the problem recurs, it may be due to an incompatible program. Make
sure that all programs, desk accessories, and system extensions you’re using
are compatible with the system software.
If none of these procedures solves the problem, consult the service and
support information that came with your computer for instructions on how to
contact an Apple-authorized service provider or Apple for assistance.
