cursor doesn't change correctly

There is an issue when using Logic with multiple desktops..

Move Logic to Desktop #1 or assign Logic to "All Desktops' and all will be well again...

See this thread for more info....

Hi SummerDice,

Yes, there is also still an issue under certain circumstances with multiple Desktops and Mountain Lion which was also apparently resolved in Mavericks.. (I've never heard anyone report any further issues after updating at least..)

However just go to Mission Control in ML and delete any extra desktops you may have.. by clicking the X in the top left hand corner of each of them as shown at the top of the Mission Control Screen....

Move your mouse over the small desktop icon to see the X

Also in System Prefs/Mission Control.. do you have your settings set like this? (This is Mav's Mission Control prefs but I think they were the same in ML too)

If not, set them like this and restart your Mac.. Then test again....

if they are set like this.. try unchecking all of them.. closing prefs...and then reopen and reset them to look like the above screenshot... restart your Mac and test again..

Fingers crossed that might help resolve things for you..

Are you sung multiple monitors?

if so, it has been noted that this issue is fixed with Mavericks but can still happen under Mountain Lion unfortunately with no fix available .

Hey I had this too recently with mine. but here's a really helpful thing: restart your mac. it worked for me

Hi there,

Did you ever solve this issue? I have Logic X, Mountain Lion and an extremely annoying cursor which flickers between icons. Its guess work what command I'm using. I've googled this to death and cannot get a solution. Please please share if you have found a solution as you will be doing a very good thing!

Thanks.

ps The desktop assignment suggested by The art of Sound makes no difference whatsoever unfortunately. Maybe The Art of Sound has another solution?

Hi Art of Sound thanks for your reply. I'm not using multiple monitors but I have desktop screens. Interestingly when I change from a logic view set to another I see a desktop in between the transition. Could this be something to do with it? I have about 5 desktops by default. I don't really want them. They just appeared when I updated from snow leopard to mountain lion. Apologies if I sound stupid! I'm new to mountain lion and snow leopard had spaces.

Thanks again, any ideas?

Hi Art of Sound,

thanks for this. I did try what you say but unfortunately it didn't solve the problem. I've decided to upgrade to Mavericks which I really didn't want to do initially (as have to buy new CAD software as isn't compatible withMavericks) but it might be the only way to cure my problem with Logic which is presently unusable with this cursor issue. Really annoying as well as expensive. Apple know exactly what they're doing.

thanks anyway.

Same problem, but it is constant. It started right when I updated to ML.
