There will be no problem, but then suddenly the problem will recur - in a Pages document with text only, no images.īy the way, the cross-hairs that appear sometimes (very seldom compared to the hand), also instead of the pointer arrow, are also the cross-hairs that I know from Adobe, not the ones that I know from Apple. It is an intermittent problem it comes and goes. If I want to select something from a drop-down menu, sometimes I will get the hand again ( NOT the "Mickey Mouse glove") instead of the pointer arrow. Sometimes it repeatedly changes between the arrow and the hand WHEN I ONLY HAVE TEXT ON THE PAGE - it has got nothing to do with hovering over images and shapes.

But then if I later open Adobe Reader, and read a pdf for example, when I go back to Pages, sometimes - not always - the mouse arrow will change into the Adobe Hand Tool. I know that that's what it is because if I switch my Mac on in the morning to work on it, and I open Pages, and Adobe Reader is NOT open, I have no trouble and the mouse arrow pointer appears as it should. See bottom right corner in the pic below. It is a normal Adobe icon one sees all the time when one is using Adobe. This as I said, is the "Hand Tool" that I get on the screen when I read a pdf in Adobe Reader.
What my problem is, is that sometimes when I am working in Pages (even when it is a text-only document with no images), the mouse/trackpad pointer arrow, i.e. it is NOT this icon that is causing me the trouble: Thank you for your attempt to help me, but I'm wondering if you read my post carefully enough because I said it is not the "baseball mitt" (I've also seen it described as a "Mickey Mouse glove") grab cursor/link pointer that is giving me problems, i.e.
