Mouse hover and click not working after Sequoia 15.3 update on MacBook Pro Since yesterday evening, my mouse has been having an odd problem, where the normal ability to see certain things while hovering over an option no longer appears, which can result in certain functions in drop down menus being annoying to access. Additionally, in some cases, the mouse is no clicking at first, and I have to click a second time, or the mouse clicks where I last clicked, despite the cursor being in a different location. At first, I assumed the problem would be with my mouse, however I have since tried 3 different mouses, and all have the same problem. The problem is similar to the one described in the following prior apple support link, except mine is not fixed with a mouse change. Mouse hover doesn't work - Apple Community . I am using Sequoia 15.3, the most recent update, on a MacBook pro computer with an Apple M3 pro chip. Any help would be appreciated [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Double click on mouse does not select/highlight the word under cursor A few days ago I noticed that double clicking the mouse does not highlight/select the word under the cursor anymore. I can select it with a single right click, but that of course also opens the context menu which I don't want. On the touchpad everything works just fine though. I have no idea what could have cause this behaviour. Since I use a Logitech unifying wireless mouse (M705) I thought it might have been caused by some mouse SW, but the problem still occurs with a 'normal' wired mouse. Booting the macBook into safe-mode did not help either. Problem already existed before updating yesterday from 13.1 to 13.2 2017 MacBook Pro 15" Retina, macOS Ventura 13.2 (18614.4.6.1.5) Any ideas someone?

Mouse/trackpad glitch My mouse glitches at random times while i'm using my macbook air. I'm not sure if it's the mouse of trackpad or both, but suddenly when i swipe to change screens it would not do it, or when i hover over an button for example and try to click on it, it would not click/show drop down options. Seems like a bug after updating my macOS but not sure what can help Macbook Air, M2 2022, 8GB macOS: Sonoma 14.0

I understand you can't move the cursor.

Force your Mac to shut down by pressing and holding its power button / Touch ID button until it shuts down. Then, start it again in the usual manner and determine if the problem remains.
