If you are having syncing problems after adjusting the mouse
properties, try the following methods to help synchronize the local
and remote mouse pointers:
Note: Mouse synchronization may take several seconds to take effect.
Wait for 15 to 30 seconds to make sure it has had enough time to
sync.
1. Open the Control Panel and position the mouse pointer over the
black area at the bottom of the control panel. Hold it there for a
few seconds and move it back into the remote screen. The mouse
pointers should align.
2. Perform a Video Auto Sync by right-clicking over the Video
Settings icon in the Control Panel; or, by opening up the Video
Options screen and clicking on the Auto Sync button. In most cases,
the local and remote mouse pointers will sync following the Video
Auto Sync.
3. Invoke the Adjust Mouse hotkey command. This hotkey command
defaults at F8, F7, F6. Hotkey functionality is only available when
using the AP Windows Client.
4. Adjust the video settings to decrease the amount of information
being transferred over the network. The less data that is being sent,

Depth Control settings in the Video Settings screen (see page 21 for
details) can help decrease the amount of data being transferred.
5. Go to the Display Settings in the remote computer/server and
decrease the screen resolution and Color Quality settings.
