I'm not sure if it's a glitch in the new Macbook update, but every few minutes my cursor on my Macbook Air keeps disappearing. I try moving it around and see the shadow of it moving, but don't see the actual mouse on the screen. The only way for it to reappear again is when I close my laptop and open it again, but then 5 minutes later it just disappears again and the cycle goes on and on.

This is happening to me, too, on Macbook Pro 2017, 13 inch. I use three fingers and swipe up and the cursor usually comes back right away. I think it might have something to do with the cursor disappearing when you type, but I'm not sure. It also happens when I switch between desktops.
Thank you, it worked great for me.
You are welcome!
that was not helpful without telling me HOW to do it...
For non techies pls explain how to reset NVRAM. Thanks.
You are welcome. Glad to hear it worked!

Just following up. Did you reset the NVRAM? It’s worked for many.
my curser keeps disappearing on my mac book
My laptop has been doing that too! So frustrating! The way I get my cursor back is to push F3 then you can see where it's at on your desktop. Otherwise, no permanent fix that I know about. Grr!
My cursor periodically disappears. The computer must be shut down in order to retrieve it. Suggestions?
Thank you for your response. Alas, I do not own a mouse.
i keep trying this but it opens a print window. Can you please help? Is there another way to reset the NVRAM?
