Bootcamp windows 7, trackpad doesn't work

I've installed windows 7 ultimate on my partitioned mid-2010 macbook pro running snow leopard. When I tried to download the drivers while going through the bootcamp process, it said they were "unavailable." Now that I'm running windows, I'm finding it impossible to right click anything, and the two finger-scroll functionality is not working either. How can I fix this? I've tried two finger tapping, putting down two fingers and clicking, option+click, etc. The trackpad will only function as the left click. Thanks

Apparently you did not read the Bootcamp Install and help manuals. There is no Windows Support Software download for Snow Leopard. The Windows Support Software (drivers) for Windows in Snow Leopard are located on your Snow Leopard Install Disk.

Macbook white, Bootcamp 3.1, Windows 7 - trackpad doesn't work

Hello.
I am using macbook white (bought in 2008), Mac Os X 10.5.8 (russian). I installed Windows Ultimate 7 (russian) via bootcamp, trackpad was working. Then installed Bootcamp 3.0 drivers, trackpad was working still. I installed Bootcamp 3.1, now trackpad doesn't work at all. I reinstalled Bootcamp 3.1 but It didn't help.
Please help.

I found the solution.
1. Uninstall all bootcamp drivers
2. Change language of interface in regional settings to English.
3. Install bootcamp drivers
4. Switch language back to Russian
Unfortunatly two-finger tap for right-click still doesn't work

Do not worry about it.
Time Machine needs that your external drive is formatted in HFS+, or better known as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". This filesystem is used by Apple on Macs and Windows cannot read or write drives formatted with this filesystem, being this the reason why all your devices do not read the external drive except your Mac.
You can only use your external drive to make Time Machine drives. If you store anything different, you may damage the Time Machine structure, so it is better not to use it as a drive to store other data. Instead, get another external drive to do it or create a second partition on the external drive formatted in FAT32 by using Disk Utility > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU3.html FAT32 can be read by Windows PCs

Sound like a trackpad problem and not an iPhoto one. Have you asked in the forum dedicated to the Mac model you're using or is this an add on trackpad?

Hello Kiira Doon,
The troubleshooting steps detailed below may help get your iPhone's display to function.
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?Contact Apple Support.

I have an iPhone 4S. When I try to print pictures, from my Windows computer, it doesn't work. Open Office also gives me an "unknown graphic" message. These are JPEGs, aren't they? Why can't I print and what is the unknown graphic?

Hi,
"A day after the name change became official my built in skydrive app stopped working"
Did you point that SkyDrive changed to OneDrive?
Did you move your OneDrive to another location or change its name?
Please login OneDrive with web-based to check if you could access it successfully.
Please refer to the following article to try the troubleshooter and check the service status:

I can't open wmv files with Lion. Windows media player doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Unable to open wmv files using Lion. Windows media player doesn't work. Are there any suggestions.
Thanks

macfriedchikkin's reply would make sense to you if you were trying to open a camera, but if you are trying to view streming media from a web site that is a different story. It helps to be very specific about what you are tyring to do on these forums.
I belive you would go into Firefox Preferences menu and tell it to use VLC as the application to play WMV files. I'm still running Tiger, however, so I can't tell you if it the latest version works wel that way. The Tiger version doesn't seem to, but a lot may have changed since then. (I'm only just getting around to installing Leopard next week now that there are too may apps I can't run on Tiger. ) Perhaps someone else on this forum can better help you set up the player in your browser.
Or you can cut out the middleman and give VLC the direct video URL:
Choose Open File from the File menu and paste in the URL of the video, say,
http://azul.streamguys.com/auduboncal-1
or http://azul.streamguys.com/auduboncal-2
Your media should play this way. Dont forget to save the playlist for later.
I'l keep investigating on my end, and yes, I'm also encouraging certain people who are streaming windows media in to switching to a different format

Keyboard & trackpad doesn't work

hi, i've a problem with my ibook g4, keyboard & trackpad doesn't work. please help me.

Hi onetechs,
You need to give more information on the problem. Did they suddenly stop working or was it gradual? Does the computer still boot up? Was there physical trauma (eg. drop/spill/etc.)? How old is the computer?

My email account blocks the verify now hyperlink when I try to click and open to verify my apple ID. I have tried to copy and paste in the browser window, but that doesn't work either.

Bootcamp Windows 7 bluetooth mouse not working

From my macbook air with bootcamp windows 7 my bluetooth mouse is not working. It was working before and it still works fine under mac os but I don't know why it's not working anymore under Windows 7. I also tried to find bluetooth from control panel or device manager but bluetooth is not showing. Anyone can help me to solve this problem? Thanks.

getting blue tooth device to work after install
iMac 21.5 inch OS X Lion (10.8.4), Bootcamp 5 install of Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
At the end of my install, I noticed that Bootcamp was not available from Windows (e.g., no hidden taskbar
icon). Other issues with missing USB drivers. Magic mouse worked ok, except the trackpad-like swiping
features were absent. Ran setup in the BootCamp folder of the thumb drive (not the setup in the thumb
drive's root directory), which indicated it was a continuing install (guess somehow the first one stopped
prematurely), installed all the special Apple etc. drivers for the Bootcamp interface with Windows.
After restart, all the troubleshooter warnings for USB devices had cleared, but Magic mouse was not
communicating with system.
Attached a standard Microsoft optical USB mouse.
Then, in Windows control panel > devices and printers:
right clicked the magic mouse's icon (was labeled apple-username's mouse)
selected Services tab
(Bluetooth Services refreshes, then shows checkbox for Drivers for keyboard, mice, etc (HID))
check the checkbox
Windows installs the driver and the magic mouse works with all its features in Windows.
incidentally, noticed that had lots of internet cutouts with both wi-fi and lan connected. maybe an issue
with my ISP, don't know, although issue only apparent in Windows, not Mac OS X.

MacBook suddenly turns off at 40% of battery charge and trackpad doesn't work

Hello,
I had to replace the battery of my white MacBook (13 inches, mid 2010), because it was swollen, and the capacity was about just 20-30% of its original one. I bought a new one. Specifically, this one. After replacing it, I have those problems:
When I run on battery, the computer suddenly turns off at about 40% of the charge. No warnings. Just turns off.
The trackpad is not working properly. I can move the mouse, but I can not click. The swollen battery was pusing the trackpad, and I guess it's broken now. I don't know if I can replace it.
Coconut battery tells that the maximum charge of the battery is below the design capacity. Not sure if this is a problem, or Coconut battery is just comparing my battery's numbers with the theoretical numbers of a brand new battery. Check a screenshot
The battery drains too fast. From 100% to 65% in about 20 mins. So, at the end, I have less than 1 hour of battery time.
I've tried resetting the SMC, following these instructions. Specifically, pressing (left side)Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time, releasing all the keys and then pressing power button to turn on the computer. Not worked. I think it was even worse.
Could it be a problem of this specific battery? Or maybe just the MacBook doesn't accept batteries like that one? It's not original.
In the first case, I would return the battery to get my money back. In the second case, I guess I should have bought an original one.
Additional data that may be useful:
Mac OS X 10.8.5 (12F4S)
EFI boot ROM version: MB71.0039.B0E
SMC version: 1.60f6
About EFI boot and SMC versions, those are the last available official updates, obtained from here.
Many thanks in advance.

I'd say it was a faulty battery.
