Weird Sticky Mouse (Very complicated problem)
It used to happened occasionally, but then in happened more and more until the problem was permanent. Because there was no problem using an external mouse (Mighty Mouse / Magic Mouse / other brand) I suspected the problem was in the hardware of my trackpad. I also updated the whole system with an installation disk, but the problem stayed (without any third party software on it installed).
Using an external mouse, the problem started again. Again it happened occasionally, and again more and more until the MacBook is not controllable with the trackpad or any mouse. Also with the trackpad turned off when I use an external mouse, the problem stays to exist (so the external mouse performance is not affected by the trackpad).
To make it even more weird: When I put my Mac to sleep and wake it up again, it actually doesn't seem to react on the left button of my external mouse (tried with a Mighty Mouse and Magic Mouse), and the dock seems to freeze after it magnified...
I'm really puzzled by this because of two reasons:
1. It seems to be a software problem, since the problem is there with the trackpad AND with and external mouse.
2. The problem is still there, even though I formatted the disk and reinstalled OS X.
3. It started graduatelly
I really hope there's someone clever enough to see what the problem here is or there's someone who recognizes it. Thank you.
