[Client] Unable to move camera at the start of game, and side note trouble with clicking.

Description of problem: This is a bug involving the camera position being stuck at the spawn and not moving regardless of what I do. I have no problem moving my character anywhere in the game or using any abilities, so long as I use the minimal to navigate. I am however unable whatsoever to follow my character using the camera. I have tried all of the following to fix this bug to no avail: Toggling locked camera mode using y, toggling locked camera mode using the little camera button above the mini-map, pressing the spacebar to jump to my character, clicking on the mini-map and dragging around, adjusting my game resolution, adjusting my video settings, adjusting my window/fullscreen/borderless mode, and probably more that I can't think of now. Additionally, when my client is in this bugged state, I must double click instead of single clicking in order to do anything, which seems odd and unrelated, but happens 100% of the time with the camera bug. The single solution I have found for this bug thus far is to disconnect and reconnect to the game.

How to reproduce the problem:

  1. Log into league of legends.
  2. Join a game.
  3. Load game and spawn in.
  4. Game will either be bugged and need to be restarted, or not.

I've found that a VAST majority of the time, this bug ONLY occurs the first time I join a game after logging in, however in rare occasions I have experienced this bug after playing a few games. So far this bug has ALWAYS been fixed by disconnecting and reconnecting to the game, however I have a slow loading computer, and am often very far behind as a result of this bug a lot of the time. I'd estimate it happens about 60% of the time after I first log in to League Of Legends, and 3% of the time otherwise just randomly. Also I don't know if this is coincidence, but I believe it's happened every time I've played veigar on the red team...

I'm not sure what sort of specifics would help, but I use the LoL Mac client on my iMac desktop computer, which is running OS X 10.9.5. If any further computer specs would be helpful in resolving this issue I'd be happy to supply them.

If I can provide any further helpful information, or if you know how to fix this issue, please feel free to reply here. I would record this bug, but it wouldn't show anything except the spawn...

Thanks for your time, and I'd greatly appreciate any help you can offer!

I have the exact same problem.

I have the same problem as well, and on a MacPro. I've found that if you click on the camera button next to the mini-map the camera will follow your champion so it's at least a little bit playable if you don't want to restart. The button clicking is still almost impossible :/ and requires mashing to actually have the interface respond. It used to only occur on first load for me, but this last patch it happens 2 games in a row and i get 1 game that it doesnt happen. Its weird and inconsistent, but if my load is slower than normal I instantly know it will hit that game.

I have experienced this same issue a few times now. Not all the time but often with my first game of the day. Have to mags to click anything and the screen won't pan with the D-pad or mouse. Reconnecting always fixes the problem but this is horrible. Any long term fix? I am on a MacBook Pro running the Mac client. Are any PC users experiencing this?
