<p>You can increase the size of the <a href="http://osxdaily.com/category/mac-os-x/">Mac OS X</a> mouse and trackpad cursor by adjusting a setting in the Universal Access preference pane:</p>

<ul>

<li>From System Preferences, click on “Universal Access”</li>

<li>Select the “Mouse & Trackpad” tab</li>

<li>Near the bottom you’ll find “Cursor Size” with and adjustable slider, the screenshot demonstrates the cursor on it’s largest size</li>

<li>Changes set and save automatically</li>

</ul>

<p>This setting is intended for use with those with difficulty seeing the cursor, but it’s also a great feature to enable for young kids.
