  • Macbook pro mouse and keyboard don't work after installing drivers.  Help!

    I just installed windows XP SP2 on a macbook pro 2.66 i7 running 10.6.4. I installed the boot camp drivers from my OSX install disk and now neither keyboard, trackpad, nor usb mouse work. Not sure what to do other than delete the partition and start over. Any help is much appreciated!

    I have the exact same problem with the same two operating systems and the same exact computer. Needless to say, I would also love to get an answer to this question.

  • Macbook Pro-Mouse and Keyboard cable

    So i have a macbook pro running OS X
    Specs: 2.4 ghz intel core 2 duo
               4 gb 667 mhz ddr2 sdram
               250 gb 7200 rpm
               Dual body design year: 2008
    My problem is that the keyboard and mouse have gone out several times and I have found that the sticky note under the battery works for awhile but the cable supplying the keyboard and mouse eventually fail due to a failed design for a machined slot for the cable.  I have first replaced this by buying a new topcase only to have the problem fixed for a year.  Today i have installed a new cable that i purchased online only to have the keyboard and mouse instantly work again flawlessly.  Has apple determined this a faulty design and will they compensate for my misfortune so i can possibly buy a new laptop or should i just switch back to Microsoft? Thanks

    I'm just guessing, but I suspect you have a better chance of winning the state lottery than of Apple giving you the price of a new MBP for your old machine with its array of do-it-yourself band-aids. This is probably true even if your state has no lottery.

  • Macbook Pro mouse click delay on 10.6.4 start-up

    Just installed Snow Leopard 10.6.3 and found that while the track pad will move the cursor around the screen, you can not select (click) on anything for the first 3 or 4 minutes after start-up. Updated to 10.6.4 and have the same trouble. Plug in a single button USB apple mouse and still the same trouble. Anyone else having this glitch??? I have a Macbook Pro 17", 2.33 Ghz, 2 Gig of SDRam. Is it a firmware problem?? I'm ready to wipe the drive and do a clean install, but that seems to be a lot of work for something that is annoying but not a devastating problem. Other than that it seems to be a great OS.
    Help!!!

    Since I posted I have done several things... reset Pram, repaired disk (there were minor problems) repaired permissions (again minor problems and all were fixed... and both were done booted from the Snow Leopard install disk). On restart the same problem persists, and after checking, there is no keyboard input either. (hadn't checked that before) also on last boot from full shutdown, time from button push to full desktop... 3 minutes 42 seconds... time from full desktop to working mouse click 4 minutes 13 seconds.... That's almost 8 minutes from a cold laptop to a working machine...
    Think a disk wipe and clean reinstall would help this??

  • Macbook Pro mouse/keyboard non responding while system still running ...

    Hi,
    I just purshased a brand new MacBook Pro 3 weeks ago and I am experiencing a very annoying troubleshotting :
    while using the Mac for standard applications ( Firefox, Thunderbird, MacMessenger ), the system seems block as nothing is responding ( mouse/keyboard ) but in fact only the mouse/KB is block.
    I tried plugging a USB mouse on the MAc, and it works perfectly, so the MBP is not freezed.
    So I decided to reboot and everything comes back to normal until it blocks again.
    I think heating may be the issue as using the MBP again few hours after the issue, all is ok.
    Did anyone experience such things ? Did anyone had it and solved it ?
    Thanks a lot, this is really annoying.

    First, try repairing disk permissions as below.
    Repair Permissions:
    Go to: Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility
    Select: your Hard Drive
    Select: the First Aid tab
    Select: Repair Permissions
    BTW... I can’t keep track of how many owners that have reported anomalies after installing Firefox. Really, problems that you wouldn’t imagine that could be caused by a browser’ seem to manifest when certain conditions arise. Anyway, it’s just an observation and may not be associated with your issue.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    That's a Mountain Lion feature. To turn it off, open System Preferences > Trackpad > Scroll and Zoom, and turn off "Scroll direction: natural". For the mouse, open System Preferences > Trackpad and turn off "Scroll direction: natural"

  • MacBook Pro Mouse Problem

    The mouse on my MacBook Pro has recently become quite unresponsive. The trackpad works fine, but clicking by pressing on the pad and the ability to click and drag is almost completely non-functional. It doesn't seem to matter how hard I press on the trackpad, sometimes certain locations will respond better than others. Are there any fixes that I could try before having to take the computer into an Apple store?

    None of my preferences had been changed from before the problem started. I ended up taking my computer to the Genius Bar and they replaced the trackpad, which was probably the only thing to do to fix it. Thanks for your help though!

  • Macbook Pro mouse touchpad in Vista?

    I just bought a Macbook Pro and because of certain applications that I need for work I have Vista Ultimate x64 running on Bootcamp. Everything works great except for the built in mouse touchpad. I can move the cursor fine but I can't tap on the touchpad itself to click. I have to use the click button which annoys the **** out of me. Is there a way to fix this so I can click using the touchpad itself or is this just one of those compatibility issues that I'll have to live with?

    Hi
    Same problem... the touchpad functionality in Vista is really annoying, without tapping or right-clicking.
    any chance someone has a solution for those two ??

  • Macbook Pro mouse is being difficult

    I have a Macbook Pro the mouse disappears, moves by itself or when I am trying to use it doesn't cooperate very well at all. If anyone else has had this happen I would appreciate your advice.

  • New MacBook Pro Mouse Button

    As soon as i got used to the new mouse button on my MacBook Pro, it stopped working on the right side. This makes things such as the right click and clicking and dragging anything on the right side unusable. My question is: is this a common occurrence with these new buttons, and will it be able to be fixed without sending in my laptop?
    Thanks in advance

    In System Preferences > Trackpad, is Secondary Click turned on and mapped to the lower right corner of the trackpad? If so, turn it off or map it to the lower left corner.

  • New Macbook Pro mouse pad

    I tried the new Macbook Pro today in an Apple store. Very nice except clicking a window and dragging a bit difficult because it's an all in one mouse pad. Seems a bit difficult to me. Anyone else have this problem?

    I have always preferred to click with my thumb and then drag with my finger, but doing both with my finger is a bit difficult. Luckily I can still use my thumb on the new trackpads just as I've done with my previous computers and everything works fine. I end up clicking down at the bottom, and it's much easier than on other areas of the trackpad.

  • MacBook Pro Mouse pad issue

    When I bought my mac book pro I bought apple care along with it. The guy on the phone told me that apple care will cover some physical damages as well thats why I paid for it. Now unfortunately, my touchpad is cracked( I am not sure why). When I went to apple store in Mission Viejo, CA, the technical assistant was rude with me and said he can not help. I bought apple product not because of the technology but for the customer care but I have to mention I had a worst experience of my life. I don't want to pay for my touchpad because I have apple care which is useless. I am not sure what to do now.  

    Typically, most anything that's "cracked" - whether it's a cracked screen or keyboard - is thought to be the result of abuse. A touchpad rarely moves much, and they're hard to "crack" (unless something was dropped onto them). I'm not saying that your issue didn't happen just as you say, only that your main challenge is to prove it.
    A mouse pad/track pad is typically touched or tapped, so this makes cracks harder to prove.
    Applecare doesn't cover user caused damage; that's where your property's liability insurance comes in. Saying that you don't know how it happened isn't good enough; the Apple rep won't believe you until you show how the crack could have happened.
    There have been incidents like this. Search the web ("mac mouse pad crack") and assemble your evidence. Then, based on this, go back to the Apple Store with your case.

  • Ableton LIVE 7 and Macbook Pro mouse

    Hi there,
    Recently my MBP has been behaving oddly using Ableton Live 7. I will post this in an Ableton specific forum too, but wonder if this is a Mac problem rather than a software thing.
    When the tracks are playing in the timeline the mouse pointer often jumps to weird places on the screen making navigation impossible when playing.. My cpu is only at 50% and there is no indication that I have too many plug ins open or anything... Same thing happens without using the bluetooth mouse and just using the trackpad..
    Anyone had a problem like this using Ableton or other software??

    For anyone who may experience this issue - it is a known issue and turning Airport off fixes it.. Nice..................

  • Brand New Retina Macbook Pro - Mouse Cursor Disappears

    Just bought this new MBP Retain, 13" with the 2.6ghz processor and have not installed much on it. I think the only program I've installed is Spotify.
    Aside from that, I'm using it as is, out of the box. No external mouse, keyboard, or any other application aside from an equally new iPhone 5S.
    I've had this issue 3 times within the 3 days of ownership, where the mouse cursor will completely disappear from the sceen and it doesn't come back. The computer still functions and I can still do a few things like type (if I'm inside a textbox already, I think), as well as change the volume, brightness and activate the Power button (however, I can't select anything).
    I have to do a hard reset to get it back.
    This is pretty frustrating for a brand new product. I don't think it's linked to any external factors as nothing additional has been added.

    VMWare and Chrome are not running at the same time. I'm describing two separate tests.
    I'm saying any program that uses a moderate amount of CPU (15-25% of total available CPU capacity) causes the MBP to exceed 200ºF with fans running full speed. Chrome is not the problem, it's an example. VMWare is not the problem, just another example. Probably if I fire up iMovie and start rendering video the same thing will happen. I just don't understand why the MBP can't keep its temperature below 200ºF with the fans on full speed.
    If I max out all 8 cores by running 8 instances of "yes > dev/null" in Terminal the temperature reaches 213ºF.
