How Do You Change The Mouse Cursor On A Mac?
Using the standard cursor provided by Apple may become tedious after a while. In addition, the cursor is quite small as compared to cursors on other operating systems. Unfortunately, Apple has not included a way to change the cursor in the Mac operating system. You can enlarge the pixels of the cursor, but to change the appearance of the cursor requires a third-party program. Select “System Preferences>Universal Access.” Select “Mouse.” Slide the “Cursor Size” slider to enlarge the cursor. Note that the cursor becomes more pixilated with a larger size. Download a third-party software such as Mighty Mouse from Unsanity or Pinpoint from Mac Champion (see Resources below). To change the cursor using Mighty Mouse. Select “System Preferences>Mighty Mouse.” Select the “Cursor” tab. Navigate through the available cursors. Slide the cursor scale to change the size. Select “Apply Changes.” Other programs, such as Pinpoint, should function in a similar way.
