Cursor jumps around and the computer is bearly usable! Started happeing since last update

Since the last update my cursos started jumping all the time, so when i try to move or click somewhere the precision in almost null. It is very annoying to try to use the computer like this, my frustration is just adding up against my computer.


I have a Mac Pro, since the last update about 15 days ago the problem started. I had to keep going, so I tried some fixes I found in th community but nothing worked. I tried changing some settings and the speed of the track pad, I tried reseting the settings for the trackpad, I tried cleaning my cookies and computer in general, and finally the Mac technitian revised it for fisical dirt and it was quite clean. Today a new update came and the problem intensified more, it is unbearable now!!! I feel lots of frustration against my Mac and its updates every time I try to click somewhere!

Shutdown the mac,

Restart it while holding the Shift key, hold the key until you see the startup line progressing, it is a very slow startup.

When opened login and try how it works.

  1. is the issue still there in this SafeMode?
  2. is the battery in the mouse still OK?, put in a new battery anew one anyway, still the same?
  3. If nothing changed: run Etrecheck and post the result here.
