MacBook Pro trackpad and mouse not dragging highlighted text Relatively new MacBook Pro where the trackpad and apple mouse been working fine for a year then recently both stopped highlighting or dragging selected text. Have restarted computer several times, deleted the mouse and reconnected, and followed a suggestion in the existing community help responses to unselect the 'Force Click and haptic feedback' option in the trackpad settings. Both trackpad and mouse now will highlight a single word or the entire line but I still cannot drag the mouse or trackpad to highlight words or sections of text, and also it still will not drag even the highlighted items. Would appreciate advice if anyone knows how I can fix this. Thank you :)

Cursor nonsense on MacBook Air M2 2022 The cursor often does not turn into the "finger" when hovering hyperlinks. Also, the cursor often does not work to open messages from Messages or mail in MacMail. So frustrating. The only thing that seems to work is performing a hard reboot and starting over.

How can I prevent my cursor from shifting while typing on MacBook Air? Everytime I press the comma key, It shifts my cursor to the start of the line which is very annoying while typing. Either it will shift the typing cursor to the start of the line of to the line just above the current line. It really sucks when you are coding and you have to use comma several times. Its happening on all the application. My mac is currently on the latest mac version of 15.2. Idk, is it a glitch or what? If there is anything I can do, please help. [Re-Titled By Moderator]
