After 10.9.4 Update, two finger scrolling not working in any App

I have all the right settings selected in System Preferences. Tried restarting the computer a couple times. I can't figure out why it is happening. Thanks for the help!

Go to system preferences, trackpad. Then go to point and click and make sure tap to click is ticked. It worked for me.

  • Two Finger Scroll Not Working on my Inspiron 3543

    It's been just a month since I bought my new lappy. Usually when I start it up, the two finger scroll works just fine in the Start menu of Windows 8.1.
    But after about 10 minutes or so, when I press Start for something, and try scrolling with the two fingers... BAMM !!!!   It's futile. Nothing happens whatsoever.
    Please help. All responses appreciated.

    Hey,
            First of all... Thank you for replying. I don't remember any specific update but, the Windows action center keeps downloading some additional updates if that's what you are referring to. And I also tried to update my touchpad driver, but it says that it is already up to date.
           Regarding the Dell TouchPad properties, I already tried that and it is configured as per my convenience. Yet it goes through the same error.
          Thank you again for suggesting.

  • T430s Two finger scroll not working reliably

    Hi!
    Sometimes it works, sometimes it takes the skin of my fingers to get two finger scroll working.
    The system update does not see a reason to update the drivers.
    Is there more effective software for the synaptic touchpad to do two finger scroll?

    Hi, theking2
    System Update is a very useful tool, but I find it best to always check for driver updates manually, just in case the updater missed something. The latest version of the Syanptics driver can be found here and may help your issue.
    Hope it helps,
    Adam

  • Two finger scroll not working in Microsoft Word for Mac

    Just finished installing Yosemite today and haven't had any real issues...however, I've noticed that two-finger scrolling doesn't work in Microsoft Word for mac. It works fine in many other applications (including other Microsoft apps--Excel & PowerPoint), but not Word.
    I've looked for any scrolling options that may be "unchecked" in the preferences, but haven't found any.

    I'm having the same issue. However, I have restarted and it still won't work. This is extremely frustrating as I have the latest updates and everything but it doesn't work and I keep forgetting every time I try to scroll.
    I'm also having the issue of whenever my Mac goes to sleep or if I turn it off, the log in screen says there are updates necessary. I feel like this is a bug because I've updated my computer like 20 times in the past few days...

  • Windows 8 two-finger-scrolling not working properly

    Two-Finger Scrolling in Windows 8 doesn't seem to work properly on my U300S Synaptics trackpad.
    Instead of just scrolling through the tiles or app on the Windows 8(.1) startscreen, individual apps are higlighted and scrolled through like when I use the arrow-keys on a regular keyboard.
    Also, in the metro version of Internet Explorer you should be able to move back and forth in the browser history by horizontally doing a two-finger-scroll gesture.
    Do I have to install anything besides the Synpatics driver to get this to work properly?

    I am having similar problems, although I don't have the zoom issue- it is simply not scrolling.   very frustrating when you are accustomed to this method.   My resolution was also reset, but I don't find that as much of an issue- the scrolling I can't fix.

  • Two-Finger Scrolling Stopped Working

    After updating to 10.5.6, my two-finger scrolling stopped working; everything else seems to be fine. What can I do to get it working again?

    Same thing happened to me today. I've had the 10.5.6 update installed for a week and have restarted my system several times since then, and experienced no problems until now. Today was the first day I powered my system down completely (rather than just restarting) and now my trackpad is wonky.
    I can use the trackpad like normal with one finger, and two-finger vertical scrolling works as long as I'm inside an application. I can also use two fingers to right-click. I just can't use two fingers to scroll in any direction besides up or down, and I can only scroll if I'm in an application or window that requires scrolling.
    Inside my Trackpad preferences panel in System Prefs, there's a checkbox for "Secondary Tap" under "Two Fingers." The other options ("Scroll," "Rotate," etc.) appear but there is no checkbox next to them. There isn't a checkbox for "Swipe to Navigate" under "Three Fingers" either.
    I will call Apple support and see what I can find out.

  • Windows 8.1 two finger gestures not working

    After I updated to windows 8.1 from  windows 8 yesterday, none of my two finger gestures are working. (e.g. two finger scroll, two finger click, or zoom) I tried updating my Synaptics driver and nothing has changed. I still can not use any of my two finger gestures. One finger scrolling is working properly but the two finger gestures are my favorite. All my gestures worked fine until I updated to windows 8.1...
    Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this? 
    Please help!

    Hello HelpMe0,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand two-finger prompts are not working since upgrading to Windows 8.1. I will do my best to help, but first, I require the computer's model number. If you require assistance locating this information, please reference this website: Guide to finding your product number
    Thanks!

  • Trackpad Problems: Two-Finger Sometimes Not Working

    This is a recent problem I've been having that's just surfaced only this week.
    Every now and then, as I'm two-finger scrolling, the trackpad will register only one finger, consequently moving the mouse only. Settings are alright, otherwise two-finger scrolling wouldn't be working at all. It works, but sometimes it does not.

    Sometimes recalcitrant trackpads can be corrected by a very through cleaning of the trackpad.  See if that is the cure.
    This could be it. I am using a protector film, but it's the same sheet that I've been using since 2009. The film could be deterioating. I will remove it and check. I hope the trackpad is not susceptible to staining over time...
    If not, open the MBP and see if the battery has swollen and is interfering with the trackpad.
    Good to know, though not likely not the case as the battery was recently changed.

  • Trackpad scroll function not working in any app - tried everything

    Hello.
    This is my 1st time writing in the forums, and although I have read multiple threads on this issue, nothing has yet solved my problem, including: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1248, & http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1449. SO ANY HELP IS WELCOME! I have a mid-2010 MBP 13" intel-based dual core with Mavericks OSX 10.9.1 installed already a couple of months now. As of last night, my two-finger scroll does not function in any app. It is the ONLY function on my trackpad that does not work. I have tried changing all scroll preferences, restarting the browser (firefox 27.0.1) & computer, as well as opening Preview app 7.0 to see if it affects other apps as well. It does not work even in Finder. I looked in the permissions section of my apps by right-clicking on "get info" & there seems to be a discrepancy between the default users and their permissions. I am wondering if this is perhaps the problem and can be reset somehow to default settings or if there is a terminal command that can reset the trackpad (like the PC function in the device manager of the control panel, diagnose/repair)? I have a screen shot of the different users/permissions that I can send/post you if necessary, but you'll have to explain me how to do this, as this is my 1st post. Thank-you!

    So whoever falls on this issue, I have visited the Apple Genius Bar today & this is what finally solved my problems:
    1. We created a TEST guest account in System Preferences to find out if it was a user-specific related problem, and it was as the 2-finger scroll function was working in the new user account. I was told this means that the problem is due to a setting that was recently added/deleted/changed.
    2. We deleted the new user account.
    3. We deleted the entire user library folder (except the Mail folder), as that is where all preferences are apparently stored.
    4. VOILA! 2-finger scrolling now functions as was intended (only all settings must now be recreated).
    It is tedious, but at least everything functions as normal & nothing needs to be backed up!
    Hope if anyone else has had this problem, they find this post.
    Cheers,
    Leo

    thanks for your answer. I did not have anything in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
    In any case: for some reason it's working again without problems.
