MacBook outline accent color.

whenever I touch something it shows a transparent outline with my accent color and if its not on the place where I'm typing it would most likely not let me use my space bar.

Thank you for the followup reply.


Based on what you’ve typed, it seems you have a lagging Mac. So, what to do…


Troubleshooting Lagging Mac Boot:


A. Try Safe Mode:

In Safe Mode, login items do not run, and corrupt system files(i.e. caches) are intentionally reset as a way to fix issues

  1. Boot: in to Safe Mode: [Hold Down: shift key upon boot].
  2. Log in: as same user
  3. Wait: 30 seconds
  4. Restart; your Mac
  5. Log in: as same user


B. See if your Hard drive is Failing:

What to Try:

  1. Boot: into Recovery Mode.  Go Here:  How to Use Safe Mode on your Mac - Apple Support
  2. Select: Disk Utility
  3. Select: the Drive
  4. Click: First Aid button
