Photoshop CS4 mouse jumping issue

I had been having this problem for a while. I would try to drag something to move it in Photoshop and it would jump clear across the screen or disappear completely! This happened one too many times, so I jumped on line and found that Adobe has released a fix for this very issue.

If you have this problem, click here to download the fix from Adobe.

    Thanks! As you can imagine it's pretty maddening to edit photos with this mouse problem hehehe

    I will try rebooting, and use some canned air on this mouse and mousepad in case it's some kind of debris. It's really maddening!

    That is strange! I wonder if something else interfered with it. I would say install it again and see what happens.

      Hi Kamila,

      Did you try restarting afterwards?

  • Kamila

    yes indeed, restarted a bunch of times, even got a new mouse and mouse pad. this has been happening on and off for months, the “fix” fixed it for a few days, and it is back :(
