This is an old bug I have seen reported in 2019 but no fix yet.
Watch a movie on Apple TV (MBP 16" 2020 model with touch bar) and mouse disappears once you go full screen. Can't find the pointer.
Only solution is to move the pointer up to the title bar and click somewhere.
Any fix?
MacBook Pro (2020 and later)
jubamad,
Thanks for those additional details.
Next, try starting your Mac in safe mode, and check for the issue there: How to use safe mode on your Mac
Also, to determine if the issue is user-specific or system-wide, create a new admin user account, and play fullscreen video there. Here's how: Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac
Cheers!
Hi Erica,
Yes, I have restarted, tried other apps, etc. Only the Apple TV seems to be buggy.
Thanks
Hi there jubamad,
We understand you're experiencing an issue with the cursor missing when watching a movie on your MacBook Pro.
Do you experience this with fullscreen video in other apps, or only with the Apple TV app?
Also, restart your Mac, and try again.
Thanks!
Apple TV mouse disappears
