Why can't I use the touch pad on my MacBook Pro to zoom or shrink? Two finger pinch doesn't work.
My touchpad is set to do this but it works in OS X 7 the same as in snow leopard (with a couple of exceptions).
Yeah, that's what I ended up doing. It just wasn't worth the hassle. I got a good (standard size) monitor for about half the price of the old one, so I'm not too disappointed. Thanks for your help though

I wiped down the touch pad on my MacBook Pro and now it's not working well
I wiped down the touch pad with a damp cloth on my MacBook Pro and not it's not working very well. What should I do to fix the problem?
Let it dry, it will come around. You just chilled it a little most likely, unless the cloth was very damp....
Next time use rubbing alcohol.
It removes the oils and grease and dries fast too.
So your have appy to the cloth, wipe, flip the cloth and wipe up the dirt and grime, then start the process with a new clean section of cloth, else you place the grime back on. -
Documents created on my iPhone or iPad go into iCloud with no problem and I can then access those documents from any of my "toys". However, documents created on my MacBook Pro do not go into iCloud, and as such, they are not accessable from my iPhone or iPad. How can I get the documents created on my MacBook Pro to go into the cloud?
Reset iCloud sync state
On Mac:
Close open applications
Open a Finder window
Choose “Go to Folder…” from the “Go” menu
Enter “~/Library/Application Support/”
Find the folder named “Ubiquity” and move it to the Trash
Restart your computer -
Why can't I use iWork '08 in my new MacBook Pro
I have installed iWork '08, but no cursor shows up. Must I purchase a new iWork for my MacBook Pro? I really only need the word processor.
You can purchase just Pages using the Mac App Store for $19.99. There are also other word processors available for OS X. For example, Libre Office and Neo Office Aqua are free packages each similar to Office for OS X. These and others can be found at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

I have a lot of Smart Playlists on iTunes and when I sync my devices the playlists names match, but the content doesn't. Each device has different songs inside the playlists. Not even the number of songs match in most of the playlists. What's the problem??
The most likely reason for that error is that your hard drive is corrupt and thus the download is not getting expanded properly. Restart the computer and hold down command-R as soon as you hear the chime, which will cause your computer to boot into recovery mode. Once there, open Disk Utility and repair the hard drive. If it succeeds, restart normally and try updating again. If it can't repair, you can try a utility like DiskWarrior, but if the damage is that bad the system may be damaged, so you should consider erasing the hard drive and reinstalling everything from scratch.

The touch pad on my macbook pro (retina) not scrolling in Aperture
My touchpad works fine in all other applications, and scrolls the Aperture browser fine, but as soon as I am in the viewer or viewing in full screen it becomes totally eratic.
Sometimes it takes 5 swipes to scroll to the next pic, sometimes 1 swipe. These are small (<5mb) jpegs so loading shouldn't be an issue. The directional keys make the pics scroll instantly.
Any ideas?
ThanksLet it dry, it will come around. You just chilled it a little most likely, unless the cloth was very damp....

On my laptop (and most for that matter) you can use the touch pad to slide your fingers to scroll thru a web page. I cannot do this in firefox. It is very annoying and I dont know why cant do this?
I have reinstalled FF and it still wont scroll! Every other browser i can scroll thru a web page using the touch pad method.
Why cant i do this on FF?Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Full keyboard access is useful for people who have difficulty using a mouse. Safari supports standard full keyboard access shortcuts for buttons and menus. If you choose, you can also use the keyboard to highlight links in webpages.
To turn on full keyboard access:
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Keyboard & Mouse.
Click Keyboard Shortcuts.
Select the checkbox to turn on full keyboard access.
To highlight links in webpages using the Tab key:
Choose Safari > Preferences and click Advanced.
Select the option to highlight each item on the web page using the Tab key.
With full keyboard access turned on, Safari uses the standard shortcut keys to access menus and windows, plus the additional shortcuts shown in the table.
Hope this helps!!

Hi, why can't I use the iMessage on my iPhone? I've already had my apple id email on it but it keeps saying "waiting for activation" always like that. No progress. Could anybody help me on this? Cheers
I have an old iPod Touch with old software that can no longer be updated:
iOS version 6.1.6
I've been searching for a solution to my iMessage login problem for months and tried everything from those frustrating links and all the tips from other users.
Here is what finally worked:
1) Settings > Privacy > Location Services > On
2) Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically > On
3) Reboot device until Apple logo appears
4) Settings > Messages > Sign In -
Why can I not use multi-touch gestures on my original iPad with iOS 5?
Why can I not use multi-touch gestures on my original iPad with iOS 5?
It would appear that apple has managed to p1ss off alot of ipad one users in one fowl swoop, what makes it worse is that fact we were the early adoptors who got asked, why do you want a big iphone for? and then spent time showing people how good it was! actually promoting it for apple! and then to get this kick in the teeth is frustrating! i wish i had known about xcode before!
however!
keep sending feedback, i must have sent twenty yesterday and will keep sending them untill i get a reply from these idiots! and wont stop untill i do, the more feedback sheets we fill in the more they will have to listen, it takes less than a min, i just asking the same question! moaning on here wont do anything, feedback might
also note they have changed the website now, but they have not changed the iOS5 spash screen :
(• AirPlay Mirroring for iPad 2 and iPhone 4S
• Multitasking Gestures for iPad
◦ Use four or five fingers to pinch to the Home Screen
◦ Swipe up to reveal the multitasking bar
◦ Swipe left or right to switch between apps)
clearly they were planning on releasing this update to us, otherwise on the spalsh screen it would have stated ipad 2 only, note in the sentence above it states it CLEARLY makes a reference to ipad 2 for airplay, so, whatever the problem, they can fix it and they know it works! -
Equium A200-15i: I cannot use the touch pad - no response
I cannot use the touch pad in my equium A200-15i.

I have tried to uninstalled the program and reinstalled it, but problem still exists.Hi
Did you check if the touchpad is enabled correctly???
Using the key combination FN+F9 you can disable and enable the touchpad functionality!
Please check this function if you have not disabled the touchpad accidentally!
Last but not least I would recommend checking the touchpad settings in the control panel mouse -> Advanced -> Advanced feature settings.
There you will find different options which can be configured to use all the available touchpad features.
Best regards -
Using the touch pad on my new pavilion dv7-6b50ea
hi, can anyone tell me how the touch pad switches on and off,and if it is possible to scoll using the touch pad on my new pavilion dv7-6b50ea
Did you try '''Ctrl'''+'''0''' (zero) to reset the zoom.
You did that with by holding the control key and scrolling on the right edit of the pad, which is equivalent to Ctrl+scrollwheel on the mouse.
Ctrl+0 to restore zoom to normal (Ctrl+- zooms out, Ctrl++ zooms in )
The problem with the Zoom toolbar buttons (+ and -) builtin to Firefox 4 is that there is no way to zoom directly to normal (100%) nor even tell what zoom level you are at.
For more control over zooming things see these [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox.htm#zoom zoom links]
To set the zoom permanently on a per site basis, try the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/ NoSquint] extension, which optionally remembers on a per site basis. -
