Hello Jürgen, For the jumping around problem, have you tried turning cursor tracking off or setting the mouse cursor to ignore the other cursors?
Do you also find that in Preview, letters with an umlaut have the umlaut separated from the letter? This is a problem with accented letters in French. It's also true of accented letters in file names. My husband and I put together a very comprehensive report on this problem a couple of years ago, but nothing has come of it. I think we'll have to dig it out and send it to Apple again. Sometimes I think that other languages are a low priority for Apple.
