One person suggested unplugging the iPhone from the computer. That's what it is, I just end up in Finder. Someone on the Apple forum mentioned suddenly dumping to Finder, once a minute or more. I changed my wording and did a fresh google search, and think I found something. I really paid attention since I posted this, and realized it's not only ID, it did happen to me in Photoshop I think. It's most definitely not a hot corner thing. I have some new in the box still as I was worried about them when they quit making them. It was really hard, I'm still not over it, to give up my white mighty mouse, with the little ball roller on top. I'll admit I'm not a huge fan of the mouse. Nothing comes up, it's always the cursor disappearing or something. I have tried googling this issue many times.


I've upgraded ID several times since.Īgain, it could be a mouse thing, it could be ID has some type of upper toolbar thing I don't know about? You guys are my last hope. Both Mojave I have now, and whatever came before Mojave, so it's not an OS thing, or an ID version thing.

It's done this since I got this new iMac Pro 2 years ago. Can't imagine it's a mouse thing, as it's only InDesign. I only have magic mice in my possession to try.

I've looked through all Mac prefs, nothing crazy. I have my mouse set to only a right click, so nothing fancyĤ. I don't have a hot corner for either the top left, or right set at allģ. It only happens when working in InDesignĢ. ID is not crashing, no errors, just having ID go away, and I have to click the dock icon or if I can see part of the app below other windows, click on that to get back and carry on.ġ. It can happen every few minutes, sometimes more often. It seems to happen only when I'm clicking near the very top of the screen, like clicking in the very top tool bar in ID. It appears random, but I don't know if it is. It just dissapears, and I'm suddenly in Photoshop, or whatever other program I have open also. When working in InDesign, all of a sudden the program "hides", as if I hit some sort of key command for Hide App. I'm going to try to explain this the best I can, here goes: iMac Pro, with stock magic mouse/keyboard.

It’s free but the developer does have a PayPal donation link so if you find the app useful then pass along a donation of thanks.Okay, I've put up with this for a few years now.

You’ll notice that the window above says “One Finger Middle Axis Click.” It looks like they are trying to emulate a middle mouse button with this option but I was unable to get it to operate in Color like a middle mouse button traditionally works.īut overall MagicPrefs makes the Apple Magic Mouse a bit more functional. MagicPrefs has a tab for Swipes as well but as of this writing there’s no functionality for swipes but that shows where the developer is going with this. To me this shows that there’s even more potential for the touch surface of the Magic Mouse. There’s also the abilty to save your own presets and to adjust the tracking speed and tap sensitivity. To open the preferences for MagicPrefs just click the little mouse icon that it adds to your menubar: You can set these things to several different commands: The app works by mapping one, two, three and four finger clicks and taps to new functions.

Two of the most used functions on my old Mighty Mouse was the middle-click for revealing the desktop and the side squeeze for revealing all windows via Expos©. I immediately saw that it added a functionality that I greatly missed: Expos©. MagicPrefs is a “free menubar application for OSX which aims to improve the functionality and configuration options of the Apple Magic Mouse.” It’s not a system preference pane but rather a little application that runs in the background. There’s now a little 3rd party application called MagicPrefs that adds even more functionality to the mouse. A few weeks ago I wrote a review of the new Apple Magic Mouse and using it with Final Cut Studio.
