Navigating viewports in Blender for beginner Hi so I have just installed my blender software on windows. I have just finished watching how to navigate viewports, and this is where I'm stuck unfortunately :D 
Yes, I am a noob at this, I am very familiar with GIS software but not this. 
So to say, when watching the tutorial on navigating viewports I see that the guy can easly zoom, pan and rotate the view with only using his mouse and his left and middle button. What happens when I click the left m-button is I only shift the place of a white and red circle with a black cross in it. see picture here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1EIjb5COfmdECQwwo_jPxEMNYRozDHa4g

This is very annoying, I want to be able to pan and rotate to move around in 3d space when I use left m-button. 
And what is this marker for actually?

Sincerly thanks

If you like:
1. Download this file


open blender. Press CTRL+ALT+U (File>User preferences>Input)
At the bottom of the window there's a button: "Import Key Configuration".
Point to the file you downloaded on (1).


Alternatively: Customize your mouse PAN, ZOOM, DOLLY. Go to CTRL+ALT+U (File-User Preferences)
Go to Input tab. Unfold "3D view", find "zoom view" - mouse - Wheel In. If there is not such command create a new one using those options:


To use the Middle Mouse button (MMB) to Rotate around the view and move (drag) etc... check this out;

The cursor is deactivated. It will TOTALLY get in your way now that you´re beginning to use the software.
