Q: Substitute for Lazy Mouse

Thank you for caring. Unfortunately I had expressed myself in a layman way ;-)

"The <false/> is already a 'no' value for the key above it. So, that seems right."

I was aware of that, but just for testing, I wanted to change this to Yes. So I removed the <false/> line, but then I was not able to save the file. But just an idea comes to my mind: I will try to change the <false/> to <true/>

YES, this works!

Thanks so much to everybody.

Is there any hope for Yosemite?

I emailed to developer of PinPoint Mouse Enhancer requesting that he consider adding this feature.  He said he is.  Any additional emails to him might help the cause.  I, too, miss the functionality of Lazy Mouse in Yosemite.

I mailed to them as you suggested. Let's hope for something real happening before we are all dead... ;-)

Hope is arising. I'll post the answer which I received today:

"Absolutely, I have it running, but it seems I cannot publish this to the App Store as it fails to work when the app is sandboxed.

I have now integrated it in PinPoint Pro, but I am not done with other changes in the next version, so it is taking a bit of time to get it published and get back to you…

trying to get it done this week.

Found the answer.

Find a machine that runs Mountain Lion (or Mavericks, maybe) and register a Lazymouse  > 2.0  (I used 2.2) installation there.

Now transfer the lazymouse.reg file in your user prefs folder to your Yosemite machine.

While the PrefPane still crashes there, you can see that it is registered in the lower left corner (it flashes away while crashing)

I now have full Lazymouse functionality without the reg. nags - running 2.5 on Yosemite.

I guess you can also change user settings on the older machine and then transfer them similarly...

I recovered an old Mavericks (10.9.5) system, and I could install, but not register Lazymouse, because the reference to the Old Juwel website ended in something new, which has nothing to do with Lazymouse. On the Mavericks system Lazymouse worked (though with the register-nag), but I could not find any file for transfer to Yosemite.

So for me it seems finally lost... :-(

The newest version 2.5 does not work with Yosemite but older 2.0.3 works perfectly. Just need to get older version. If you do not have or cannot get reply with email and the older version can be sent to you. This is INSANE that Apple can't fix the crash despite reporting it repeatedly.

Easy LazyMouse  Fix: Download LM ver 2.5 and install. It will not work... yet

Then go to System Prefs > Security & Privacy > Accessibility, and check the box beside LM (you need to click the lock and enter your pw).

Then reboot

Then go back to Accessibility and RE-check the box.

LM should now work (and no opening the pkg and making an alias)

Hope this helps.
