My camera wont follow my mouse when I play. Please any suggestion would be great! I just hooked up my computer through hdmi to my TV as my monitor for the first time. Thanks in advance.

Mind giving some specifics? Mouse won't follow camera in SC2, I assume? I know there's an option to turn off the mouse scrolling the view, make sure that's still turned on. If it is, you may be suffering some minor input lag, depending on the tv, when you move to the edge of the screen. Move there and hold it for a second, see if it moves eventually. If neither of those works, try running the repair tool.

This almost sounds like a constraining issue where the game thinks he is mousing outside of the game.

If it's even SC2 he is talking about. OP has no information in it so Im not going to give a lot of thought on fixing the issue if the OP can't take the time to clarify his problem.

So very basics would help, check the forum guidelines.

Sorry I was posting from my phone and it would only let me put so many characters. The camera will not scroll with the mouse in Starcraft 2 as in it will not constrain to the movement and scroll across the screen. I cannot find the option to turn this on and off. What specs would you like?

Go to Options, in sc2 > Controls > Confine mouse cursor = On

Also try tabbing out and straight back in, fixes it for me.

All these options did not work. Does it have anything to do with using the TV as my monitor?

Just fyi click and dragging the camera works as well as moving the minimap.

What resolutions are you using, and what resolution is the TV?

My computer is set to 1600 x 900 and so is Starcraft but the TV itself runs 720p and when you detect it as a monitor it places it in 720p for resolution.

Manually set everything to the appropriate resolutions and restart, then the same with SC2, and try again.

What are "appropriate" for Starcraft 2

Your display's native is always appropriate, unless you need it lower. So I guess ideally, set it lower first, then back up to native.

This did not work any other ideas?

It's probably some screwy issue with your TV not wanting to work well with your PC. I mean, I'm sure there's more things you could fiddle with, but nothing's coming to mind specifically. You could just try playing with driver settings.
