My daughter's Macbook Air does not show a Cursor, although ⌘+Tab shows it. How do I force it to display normally?

(First time I noticed)... does alt-tab show a hand or another cursor?– CousinCocaineCommented Jul 4, 2014 at 12:04

Try following troubleshooting steps:
1 - Start in Safe mode (reboot, hold shift right after the startup chime)
if cursor shows then it is a 3party software
2 - Log in as other user (Guest)
if cursor shows it is your (daughters) user profile that needs fixing
If none of above worked, it is your Trackpad app that needs fixing.

I'm not seeing any reference to a "trackpad app" anywhere within either articles. Could you clarify what you are referring to, preferably with a quote? Also, Safe Mode does not rule out 3rd-party app involvement as apps can still be run in Safe Mode.– grg ♦Commented Jul 4, 2014 at 12:43
