Track Pad single tap and double tap not working

Dear All,
I have a MBP A1226 model with intel 2.2 GHz Core 2 uo processor. With Mac OSX ver 10.8.4.
My system had developed a snag, was not booting up. I booted up thru the rcovery disk and after the disk repair did not help, did a drive erese and a fresh install.
All seems to work well except that the trackpad does not respond to single aswell as double tap. Scrolling is working fine.
Help to resolve this issue will be appreciated.
BTW trackpad was functinal before the snag.
Regards

I suspect the trackpad settings were reset when you did your fresh install of Mac OSX.
to fix this, open up Settings>Trackpad>"Point & Click" tab.
Here you will find tons of settings that wil let you customize how your trackpad works. More specifically, you will want to enable "Tap to Click".
Hope this helps!

  • Magic trackpad single tap not working

    Hey Everyone,
    So I have a new 2014 mac mini, and I have the magic trackpad and wireless keyboard connected to it.  In my settings I have the "single tap" turned on, but when actually "tapping" with a single press, it doesn't work.  The only way it works is if I actually use the click function.  Now, I have bootcamp loaded up and these functions works perfect on my windows 8.1 partition.  Any suggestions?

    Using Lion 10.7.2, iMac 2010, Bluetooth trackpad, keyboard and mouse. Suddenly computer screen/screens would freeze after a prolonged (hours>overnight) sleep, no response to the trackpad or keyboard, requiring a restart. Problem has been fixed for past 2+ weeks, after performing the following:
    1. Connect USB keyboard and mouse and restart computer.
    2. Remove all 3 Bluetooth devices and partially remove batteries.
    3. Turn off Bluetooth in System Preferences.
    4. After overnight sleep, turn on Bluetooth in System Preferences.
    5. Reconnect Bluetooth keyboard. Waited another day.
    6. Reconnect Bluetooth trackpad and mouse.
    7. After overnight sleep, everything was OK.
    8. Removed USB mouse and keyboard.
    9. No further problems with sleep>freezing and bluetooth devices all OK.

  • Suddenly my double click both on track pad and mouse is not working

    suddenly my double click both on track pad and mouse is not working.in System Preferences,track pad, i have ticked and unticked the Tap to click several times.Restarted the mac for several times at well but still i do not have double click.help me please.

    It might be the double click speed setting.
    Look in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > Trackpad options.. button > move the double click speed to the slow side of the range.

    I was ask for my secure question and they did not work. So I went into my account and tap on my secure question that I forgot my secure question. It replied back that it just sent me a email. The email never came. I did this three time. You have myy email as correct. I have check my account and it show as being correct.

    It's a really bad idea to post your email addresess - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove them.
    This is a user-to-user forum and no-one on here can take any direct action. If your Yahoo address is not working that's something you would need to take up with Yahoo - have you checked it by sending yourself an email to it?
    Otherwise you will need to contact Support: go to https://expresslane.apple.com/ and click on 'iTunes' in the center column and then 'iTunes Store' in the right-hand column and proceed from there.

  • 8530 Track Pad and E buttone not working, also lines in photos.

    Device info
    Your carrier: SPRINT
    Model info and OS version: Curve 8530 5.0 Bundle 1675 (just upgraded)
    Apps and free space
    File free before and after a battery remove/replace. (Go to Settings, then Options, then status): 106575952
    Did a battery pull fix your issue?: No
    Apps installed and their version if possible. (Go to Settings, then Options, then applications): None
    BT device model/version (you will have to look at the BT device): None
    Scroll pad works on and off, will not work on some menus.  E key will work sometimes, usualt types an upper case E and not a lower case, will not type 2 E's in a row.  Works ok when typing a 2.  There were some other buttons giving issues a while ago and then it all went away and now this just started again out of nowhere.  I tried backing up / wiping the phone, upgraded to the latest software and it is still giving me issues.  The phone has never been exposed to any sort of moisture, I don't even use it in the rain.
    Another issue, possibly related, possibly not is that I get 1 vertical line and 1 horizontal line in my photos I take.  This started out happening sometimes and not other times but now it is constant.
    Thanks for any help / suggestions you can give.

    Is the phone still under warranty? If so, I'd contact Sprint as this sounds like its probably a hardware issue (especially if updating the software didn't help). If the phone isn't under warranty any more, let us know and we'll see if there is anything we can come up with that could help.

  • Word 2008 line spacing.. is single space and double space all messed up?

    Very basic here: in print layout view (only one I am using) the single spacing and double spacing seem so far apart. Single spacing is way too far apart. Is anyone else seeing this?

    That is the issue. I am hitting enter and getting a big space. I see a similar thing in Pages. All I know is tht in 2004 version, I start all my papers with 4 lines in top corner (name-enter/date-enter/assignment/class#-enter) I do these with single space just by default on Word.
    THen I go to format-paragraph-double space, and do my writing--double spaced.
    This is weird to me. I like word 2008, looks nice, notebook is cool. But I don't like having to re-learn that stuff. Is this how everybody does this? Everyone out of the box can not just type and choose single/double space? We have to edit some paragraph spacing? HUH?

  • Outputting to tape - NOT WORKING!?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to output to a mini-dv tape, and it's not working. I know I'm supposed to be using "Print to Tape" but it's not showing up on my camera screen. I went into Audio-settings and the audio playback is set to "FireWire DV" and the Video Playback is set to "Apple FireWire NTSC (720 x 480), also I chose "All Frames" through View and that didn't work either.
    What am I missing?

    hook up camera to 'puter, switch camera on into VCR mode (possibly 'play') - i.e not 'camera' or rec mode.
    Launch FCP > open project > select view > all frames > go file > print to video > click OK >
    Wait until writing video/audio finishes (if applicable) you should then be prompted to set your deck/camera to record which you should do, then press OK.
    Sometimes, depending upon what camera you use to record to, you may need to use the supplied remote control to go into 'record pause mode' prior to hitting the 'pause' button which will set the camera to record.
    What camera/deck are you using? The tape isn't set to 'record protect' is it?

  • After Yosemite Track pad moves the cursor but will NOT allow Click

    Track pad moves the cursor but will NOT allow click after a period of usage. After Forced reboot track pad works fine for a few hours. This started within hours of installing Yosemite. Help, I am afraid I will lose a document during reboot. So far I have been lucky and have not lost data.
    MacBook Pro (17-inch, Early 2011)  SSD

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    If 10.7.0 or later...
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    Any change on reboot?

  • When streaming a movie with the new Apple TV, and using a DSL Internet connection, all audio sound works, e.g., the music track, but the audio track with the actor's voices, does not work. What can I do?

    When streaming a movie with the new Apple TV, and using a DSL Internet connection, all audio sound works, e.g., the music track, but the audio track with the actor's voices, does not work. What can I do?

    Hi Brian,
    Thanks restoring and restarting didn't fix my problem - i have started it fresh and still it doesn't work. Basically I press ONCE on the remote, after the machine has not had any commands for 10 minutes, and the cursor skips from one end of the menu to the other - so I can't choose network or update software etc - I sometimes manage to stop it randomly in the middle of the menu if I press on a command in the middle of the cursor skipping all the menu steps...not sure what the problem is but I have basically not used my brand new apple tv since I bought it for that reason! I should call Apple support I suppose! grrrr hate wasting time with stuff like this!
    Thanks for your help though!

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Just upgraded to ios7 and want to listen to BBc Global news podcast as I do every single morning and it is not there - where have all my podcasts gone? If I had known this would happen I would NEVER have upgraded.. Help!

    Just upgraded to ios7 and want to listen to BBc Global news podcast as I do every single morning and it is not there - where have all my podcasts gone? If I had known this would happen I would NEVER have upgraded.. Help!

    As of iTunes 11.1 and iOS7, podcast files will no longer play in the Music app on the iPhone (this is very annoying, but that's the way it is).
    The two easiest options are probably:
    What Apple wants you to do: download and install their free Podcasts app onto your iOS device. In theory your podcasts, including the BBC news one, should sync onto the Podcasts app. This is supposed to "Just work", and if it just works for you, well, congratulations, but that certainly doesn't seem to be the case for most posters in this forum.
    What I'm leaning towards: for all podcasts in iTunes, Get Info, and change them from "Media Kind = Podcasts" to "Media Kind = Audiobook". That will allow them to sync to the Music app. Then you'll have to arrange smart playlists or whatever to sync those (ex-)"podcasts" to your Music app.

    You need to copy and paste the above code in the body of your editor window and the css styles will start to work again.
    Please note this is a rough check only so you need to see if the closing div tag is in the right place.

    I uploaded music in the match and when i want to play it in my phone, some of the tracks appear blocked (blanked) and a few not. When I'm connected in a wi fi spot, I can play all of the tracks. Help please.

    Hi,
    You need a wifi connection to stream. Previously played tracks appear in a temporary cache which allows them to be played again when yOu have no wifi..
    You can either predownload selected tracks or use cellular data.
