losing the cursor on new Ventura macine

We just bought a new MacBook Air M2, which (of course) came with Ventura macOS. We lose the cursor pretty often and don't know how to get it back. Reading other posts suggest 1) clicking on the touchpad, or 2) hitting Tab. We'll try those, any other suggestions?

macOS V14.0 Sonoma cursor keep disappearing So basically, I just updated my MacBook Pro to macOS Sonoma earlier this day, and ever since I updated it to this version, my cursor just disappeared! Not like entirely, but appears only if I: put my cursor on the Dock, open mission control, or opening app exposé. And it's been really annoying just swiping up and down just to see where my cursor is, and I would like to ask if anyone have a solution to this problem, or if anyone else have the same problem. I went onto Reddit before posting here, and a lot of people seems to been having the same problem as mine. So I would like to ask if anyone have a solution to this problem?

Cursor / Mouse disappearing on MacBook Air Cursor readily slips off my screen while I'm working and then requires a lot of fiddling to get it to show up again. Often it'll require moving the mouse off its pad to bring it the cursor back into view. This behavior seems new since update Ventura 13.3.1 (a) though how that would be related I can't know. Suggestions? Tks in advance.

Issues with trackpad after upgrading to Mac OS Sonom I upgraded a 2018 MacBook Pro (intel) to Sonoma today and it’s messed up my trackpad (which worked flawlessly before). The issue is that where the mouse appears on the screen is not where the click actually happens. Sometimes the pointer is off by half an inch, sometimes it’s off by a few inches. I’ve restarted the device multiple times but the issue keeps happening. It’s effectively rendered my laptop unusable.

Shake the mouse back and forth or slide your finger side to side really fast on a trackpad. The pointer cursor will grow larger making it easier to find.
