I have stopped using Firefox as nothing I have done has fixed this problem. I have tried shutting down Firefox and rebooting it, I cleared all my add-ons and then added adblock back (that's the only one) but it still doesn't work. I've deleted large files so that I have more space - I can't think of anything else that will work. I have spoken to four of my friends with Macs and they are all having the same problem with Firefox since Mavericks.

Cursor is disappearing huh? That is pretty odd. All of the compatibility of Mavericks can be tracked in [Bug 883824]

Try this work around:

  1. Navigate to Firefox>Preferences>Advanced>General
  2. Check 'Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages'.
  3. Hit okay.

Or please try the Mac preferences noted here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23542890#24471966

Hi thanks very much for your reply. I did a few things like delete my add-ons and I don't have the problem of the disappearing cursor (sounds like a Sherlock Holmes story) any more but it seems to have been a mac issue as there were many complaints on the Apple forums of the cursor disappearing since the Mavericks OS and not just in Firefox but in multiple programs. Looks like they've fixed it somehow!
