P: brush cursors not working on 2011 Mac/MacBook Air (OS X 10.7.x Lion)

I'm running CS5 version 12.0.4 on a 2011 MacBook Air and the brushes do not work when resized between approx 300 - 650 in size. I don't know if this is a bug but the issue occurs in Lightroom as well. Please advise when an update will be issued to fix this. The software is pretty much useless to me with this issue affecting it.

    Notice that this topic is about MacOS, not Windows.
    This was about a specific MacOS bug that Apple fixed in MacOS 10.9.
    This topic has nothing to do with cursor issues on Windows.

    Please read the existing posts. Apple fixed this particular issue back with 10.7.3 (though 10.8 introduced new and slightly different cursor bugs).

    did you go toSystem Preferences - Universal Access, setting the Cursor Size to Normal (all the way to the left)...it worked for me today. It's a mac setting not a photoshop setting
