Problems like this!
I just bought a macbook pro last week. Since using lion, I have noticed a problem clicking. Such as opening folders, minimizing windows, clicking the back space button etc. I click on a few folders and they open, and then I try to click on another one and it refuses to open no matter how many times I click on it unless I unselect it and try again. It is not consistent to specific folders/icons, it just happens at random. It is as if the OS is not registering clicks consistently, like it were a hardware problem. Also my right click malfunctions at times and will either not work or will behave like it is the left click and vice versa and takes awhile to regulate itself.
Keep in mind I use both a wireless usb mouse and my trackpad and this is a problem I experience with both of them. I am using the latest version (10.7.3)
I've got similar problems like this, it started when i was still using 10.6 and it's still there, upgrading to 10.7.3 didn't solve anything for me,
The problems I experience are:
- clicking a X (closing window) button, but instead it clicks that one next to it (the - (minimize) button).
- In Safari when i try to close a tab, I can click the x button as many times as i want (and i see it actually get pressed) but it won't do anything.
- When in iTunes a song is selected, and I want to drag it to a playlist, I have to de-select it and select/drag it right away or else it will just start playing the song over and over again (like i'm double clicking it but I'm not).
Dragging my tab's or window's around solves the clicking issue for a bit, it gets responsive again.
Strange thing is, I got these problems with 10.6 on my 2010 iMac, then I upgraded to a new 2011 iMac, but I did a clean install. i've only dragged the folders from my backup. I waited a while before upgrading to Lion and when I finally did (hoping the problems would go away) it's still there.
I can live with it, but it's getting really annoying, and i can't find a solution anywhere. Hope this topic can help us
