Cursor is frozen in top left of screen and picture of a mouse is displayed on the screen showing a green arrow to turn it on ( I just use the trackpad). I called Apple and they rank some tests which didn’t resolve the issue and said it was a hardware issue

It looks like you have a faulty trackpad connector,
try connecting a mouse and keyboard via usb
Get back to me what happens
crwdns2934105:0crwdne2934105:0
worked! When i disconnect the USB mouse or keyboard the laptop trackpad and mouse don't work. What does this mean and how do I fix it?
MAYBE a new trackpad
@beanman56 - Yes! Time for a new Trackpad.
Thx so much…does ifixit also have a video on how to do the repair
@Herman Drost - I find the guides are more than enough MacBook Air 13" Mid 2012 Trackpad Replacement

It could be a fault at the connector or a faulty logic gate on the motherboard...

Would you recommend getting it repaired by an authorized apple dealer? The reason I ask is I'm worried the repair would cost more than what the laptop is worth (2012)

@Herman Drost Yeah they charge more than what the macbook is worth

@Herman Drost - You can do this! It's not that hard.
