Can i use track pad and mouse when using two displays

I have a second display I wonder if I can use my mouse for the other display and my track pad for my macbook pro.
if not what will be the solution.
ps: my second display is a tv.

Although Apple has enabled multiple Finder and Dock display functionality as an option within Mission Control preferences, there is no means to assign pointing devices to different displays.
I have two Apple devices: Magic Trackpad and Mouse. One mouse pointer is allocated to both devices regardless which screen I am using. That's the way it is.

Can you share your keyboard and mouse when using S...

can you share your keyboard and mouse when using Skype Screen share?
I want to give a remote user access to a application on my computer. Is this posisable with Skype?
Can you share just one application on yourscreen and not the complete screen?

you can share both your entire screen, or just a specific window of program in your computer. it is not possible to give someone a remote access to your computer through skype, and it is also not possible to share your mouse and keyboard.

Can i use a track pad and mouse at the same time

can i use a track pad and a mouse at the same time

If you mean can you have them both connected at the same time, then it's a yes. I have both connected and use the mouse for some functions and the trackpad for others... works a charm.

HT3924 can i use iMac keyboard and mouse when it is in Target Display Mode and attached to my MBP?

I can attach my iMac to my MBP via thunderbolt and run it in Target Display Mode, so that itsimply becomes a screen attached to my MBP.
What I really want is for the keyboard and mouse of my iMac to also operate as if they were attached to my MBP, but I cant seem to achieve this.
Is it possible?

Its a wireless mouse and keyboard - dont think I can re-pair the keyboard to MBP since I need it talking to the iMac to enable and disable TDM?
I expected TDM to natively pass through the mouse and keyboard to the MBP, since that is the obvious user requirement. But this does not happen.
So I guess I want a workaround so my iMac keyboard and mouse can drive my MBP while attached via Thunderbolt cable in TDM mode.

I have just rebuilt my Macbook pro and I use a mouse which plugs in. Since the rebuild it will not perform an open instruction, or the track pad either, which it use to do. Anyone any ideas

Since I installed a clean rebuild of my system my track pad and mouse will not open a folder or file using a double click. I have to use Apple key plus O. I have checked the preferences but cannot see anything that will help me.

My fingers have a burning sensation while using track pad. Is there a reduce-friction coating that could have worn off?

I have recently been getting a burning sensation, as if my finger tips are rubbed raw, while using my track pad. I have been using my MacBook Pro for two years now. I am wondering if the track pads have a special coating on them to help reduce friction? If there is a friction reducing coating I think it could have worn off over the years of use. Maybe my fingers have more oils/sweat than most people, which would cause a coating to wear off faster. I stopped using it for some weeks hoping maybe my fingers were sore from something else. But that was not the case. The burning feeling to my finger tips starts within the first five minutes of using the track pad.
Please let me know if you know anything about Apple using a special coating on the track pad.
Thanks
Its a MacBook Pro 13-inch Mid 2010

I have no different issue. Recently I bought MacBook Pro with retina display ang iPhone 6 plus. I have a burning sensation while using mac track pad. it becomes intense shortly using track pad and I cannot work.
The problem is same while using my iphone 6 plus. If it is an allergy to mixing of some metal with aluminium(as some of you have mentioned) it should not be a problem with iphone, but i have the same burning issue with using phone as well.

Can I use Magic Mouse, Track Pad and the wireless keyboard together?

Can I use a Magic Mouse, a Track Pad, and the wireless keyboard together at once?

All through bluetooth?

Just purchased a Track Pad. Can I use the track pad and my mouse at the same time?

Hello folks. Am new to the community. Asked a question but didn't go through.
Have just purchased a magic track pad for my desk top iMac. I have been using both the track pad and my mouse together.
It froze up after several hours. Is it ok to use both together? I find that fine movements are better on the mouse but the other
stuff is easier on the track pad.
Thanks for your help.

That is very strange..... haven't heard of that one. I guess I'd try the following: unpair them all and start over, one by one. I must say, my current mouse is not an Apple mouse - and it is USB, so it doesn't come into play in this scenario, but it is listed in the bluetooth devices and I do have the keyboard and trackpad.

HT3981 how can use track pad in windows using macbook

Hi everyone.
Can anyone guide me , How can we use track Pad click and right click in Macbook while running Windows 7.?
Kind regards,
Kabir

It appears you did not complete the installation and set up of Windows. Did you install the Boot Camp support software/drivers from your Snow Leopard installation disk? If you did you shouls have the Boot Camp Tools icon on your Windows. Access these tools and set up the track pad.

TS1398 How can I use both, Windows PC and iMac, when using WiFi?. It is either-or. What can I do?

What does this have to do with using an iPad?
But yes, you should be able to connect to your home WiFi network with multiple computers and devices. In my house my wife, my daughter and I will all be using the WiFi Internet connection at the same time with our Laptops and I will also be using my iPad, my daughter uses her iPhone, and we have no issues at all.
Is this what you want to know about?

Nowhere on my iPhone 4 can I activate FaceTime... I've tried using contacts, settings, and even when I call someone with an active FaceTime, the FaceTime icon is not lit up. Any suggestions?

There is no facetime icon and never was. Facetime is built into the phone. Go to settings>general>restrictions and make sure facetime is ON. Go to settings>facetime and turn it on there and set it up there. Also read http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268

HELP! Track pad and key pad not working at all!!!

My phone was working fine and then I woke up to not being able to use the track pad and keyboard. It was stuck on password sign in and when I plugged the phone in woke automatically go to bedside mode. Spent hours on the phone with my carrier just to make it worse. ANY ideas???

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
So that we can avoid redundancy, please list exactly everything that your carrier had you do, and the specific results of each thing...
I'm a bit surprised that they fobbed you off, though...you see, you pay them for 100% of your service and 100% of your formal support. Right now, they seem to be delivering neither to you...
