Cant click and drag with one finger, but works with 3 fingers

Last week, my trackpad starts to fail. Thing is that i can't click and drag with one finger but if i turn on the 3 finges option, i can tap and drag without a problem Check the prefs, universal access too. And everything is ok.
Reset pram, smc , run & fix permissions but nothing.
Looking around the internet i found a possible hint and is related to a bad battery condition. But that post talks a physical defective battery. Mine last like 2 hours.Under the battery icon in the finder it saids tha should be replace soon.  Macbook pro late 2008. 4 gb ram , 500 gb hd, 10.7.3
Any suggestions??

It sounds like an accessibility feature, although I'm not 100% sure. You can explore the accessibility settings if you like, or for a quick fix you can try going into Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings.

  • I cant click and drag my photostream photos to pin them to my desk top with out them being very small and not being able to make notes in paint brush on them.  I used to before the update.

    I used to be able to open, click and drag photos from a photo stream folder, and pin them to my desk top.  After the update my PC made me download icloud to my computer to access my photo stream pictures.  Now if I go into my icloud photostream tab click and drag.  It asks me if I trust the computer I am saving it to.  If I click yes, it save this tiny picture to my desk top. 
    In order to accomplish what I need to do with the photos I have a few extra steps added to my perfect process.  Has any body ran into this and do you know how to simplify this.
    Thanks

    1. If you break your post into paragraphs it is much easier to read.
    2. I have no idea what your post is referring to, and how - if at all - it relates to iPhoto.
    3. It's a good idea to re-read what you've posted, and ask yourself how it might look to someone who doesn't know you and doesn't know what's going on with your machine.

  • Crystal Reports export and print fails with SSL / https but works with http

    Windows 2008 Server, 32-bit (IIS7)
    ASP.NET 2.0
    Ajax 1.0
    Crystal Reports version 10.5.3700.0
    http:  printing works, export works
    https:  printing not working, only export to MS Excel and MS Word work.
    I am able to generate reports using both http and https, and the toolbar icons are all showing.  However, I am unable to print or export properly with SSL.
    Printing prompts me with a select printer window, and then a window 'Retrieving Page 1' follow by two messages from Crystal Print Control both stating:
    A communication error occured.  Printing will be stopped.
    Exporting generates various errors depending on which export method is being selected (however Excel and Word work over https).
    I've found the same problem on this site and other forums, but never a resolution to get exporting and printing to work with SSL.  Will someone please provide me assistance or possibly relay what settings they're using if they have Crystal Reports export or printing working over SSL in IIS7?  Everything works fine when I change the address from https to http.
    Please let me know if I can help by providing further information.  We've gone through a great deal of possible solutions with code and I'm currently looking in to IIS settings again.
    Thank you.

    Thanks Ludek. I got it by searching KB number.
    Unfortunately, it didn’t fix my problem even my IE (IE8 and IE 9) has correct setting.  I double check my version. PrintControl.CAB is version 10.2.0.1146. we use VS 2005 Crystal report and VB .NET. It works fine on HTTP. But when we use HTTPS (SSL Certificate from go daddy).
    1: Crystal report export
                Export to MS Excel, Word: pop us “File download”, then click “Save”. It says “Internet Explorer cannot download ReportView.aspx from my site. Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site. the requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try it again later”
                Export to RPt, Rich text format: It says “Internet Explorer cannot download ReportView.aspx from my site. Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site. the requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try it again later”
                Export to PDF : nothing happened.
    2: Print:
                Pop up dialog to select printer, click “Print” “. Shows windows “Crystal Report Viewer” and pop us error message box. Title is “Crystal Print Control”. Message is “An communication error occurred. Printing will be stopped”. Click “OK” and pop up error message box again.
    Please advise.
    Thank you very much!

  • I am working in a school.   Last year we had one ipad cart (holding 30 ipads) with one macbook to work with.   This year we purchased a second Ipad cart (another 30 ipads) but not the second macbook.   Can I use this same macbook to sync all 60 ipads?

    I am working in a school.  Last year we had one ipad cart which holds 30 ipads and one macbook for syncing.  This year we bought another cart of 30 ipads, but not an extra macbook.   Can I sync all 60 ipads to the one macbook computer? 

    In theory everything that you are saying sounds right to me.
    I am not sure at all what the limitations are when using the iPad in education as far as how many iPads can sync to one iTunes account. I am going to take a stab in the dark here and guess that you can sync up to 49 iPads with one Mac and one iTunes account since the device that I found has 49 ports. How's that for an obvious guess?
    But seriously, I don't how Apple treats volume licensing with a single iTunes account in education. You were using 30 iPads this past school year so we know that's not a problem. The device that I found has 49 ports so we assume that 49 iPads are OK as well. You would have to check with Apple as to what the limitations/rules arefor using a single iTunes account.
    There has to be a way to sync as many iPads as you have students in those classes or the iPad in education would not be a viable option. What I don't know about is how you go about paying for that volume license or how it is implemented.
    For personal use, you can use up to 10 devices with a single Apple ID/iTunes account. No more than 5 of those devices can be computers.

  • Apple mail sent with one account but sends with a different account

    I have 5 email accounts in Apple mail.  I have what I call my main one and many times when I take care to send FROM that one, it will land in the recipient's mailbox sent by a different account.  I have tested it different ways even going so far as BCC myself, checking to make sure it is sent out with correct one and it still ends up sending it with the secondary/wrong account.  Any ideas?  I cannot delete the secondary account as I sometimes need to use it for work.  thank you in advance. 

    I have mine set to 993... but I did not set it... all i did was set up gmail, and it worked automaticlly. That might have been the port number in Lion... i dont know.

  • Sound doesn't work with one player but does with two...

    I'm running the Win7 Release Candidate and have Flash Player 10 installed.  Today when I tried to play a video on youtube, there was sound for a split second, and then it cut out while the video continued to play.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Flash with no success. Then I tried opening up two tabs and played a video in each tab, and suddenly the sound was working again.  This happens in both Google Chrome and IE8.  I have normal sound in all other applications.  Any suggestions?

    is the driver for your network card up to date?  that could be a reason it will not work with the more up to date HH3
    If want more assistance from the forum members please can you post the adsl stats from your router may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or use a-z, if netgear enter 192.168.0.1) and run btspeedtester (MAC users may have problems) http://speedtester.bt.com or http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/9354/c/346,4740,5520 and post the results .
    are you connected directly to the NTE5 master or test socket or to somewhere else? Is the master the only phone socket in your home?
    Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal

  • ITunes WiFi Sync not working with iPhone 6, but works with iPad 1

    I have an iPhone 6 and an iPad 1. The iPhone 6 runs iOS 8 and the iPad 1 runs iOS 5.
    Yet, the iPad works fine using iTunes WiFi Sync with my Mac, while my iPhone never works with it. Whenever I forcibly make it sync by clicking on the device in iTunes and on Sync, it gets ejected/removed from iTunes. This doesn't happen with my iPad.
    Is this a problem specific with the iPhone 6? Anyone know what I can do to fix it?
    If I uncheck and re-check the WiFi Sync setting for my iPhone 6, then it syncs fine the first time again. But it doesn't work after that. So the device is definitely on the correct WiFi network at least.

    It continues to be UNREAL how Apple will release iOS software without testing it.  Yep.  They BROKE WIFI SYNC.  It no longer works on my iPhones or iPads either.  UNREAL!!!!!!

  • PS3 DNS Error with WR54GL wireless but works with BEFVP41 Wired router?

    I have the following network set up,
    Modem - BEFVP41 Router (all filled up) - a switch (all filled up as well) - WR54GL wireless router (set up as a switch) - PS3.  
    I have 2 pc's connected to the BEFVP41, one pc connected to WR54GL and 3 laptops via wi fi working off the WR54GL as well.
    Everything works fine with the exception of PS3. It is able to obtain the IP address but returns a DNS error when testing the internet connection.
    When I wire the PS3 directly to the BEFVP41 router it works flawlessly.  But if I try to set up to work via the wireless WR54GL it fails every time and returns the DNS error.
    I have the latest firmare for both routers as well as the PS3.
    This leads me to believe there is an issue between the PS3 and the wireless router or some sort of networking issue between the wireless router and the main router. Im not a network buff, matter of fact i know very little about this so i really dont know where and what settings to adjust or even where to begin the trouble shooting. 
    Any suggestions? Do I need to do port forwarding or whatever or adjust some dns settings in the wireless router? Any guidance is appreciated.

    First you can login to your wired Router (BEFVP41) and find out the DNS adress on Status Tab.
    Then you can manully set Static Ip to your PS3 in the range of Router and Give Static DNS and Test the Connections.

  • Ad hoc connection doesn't work with my 3gs but works with my touch

    I setup an ad hoc connection on my laptop following a guide on the internet.
    I did this on windows 7 32bit, it worked for my ipod touch but for some reason it won't work with my iphone 3gs (upgraded with the latest updates)
    I connect to the wireless network, it shows its connected (with the wifi symbol at the top in the iphone's status bar) but as soon as i try using the internet via safari or any other app, it reverts back to using 3g or edge networks. I've checked and after reverting it still shows wifi is connected but the wifi symbol is no longer in the status bar and judging by the speed of the connection it really isn't connected to wifi.
    Any ideas why this is happening?
    It's just so odd that it works on my ipod touch but not on my iphone 3gs... Can't be a windows related problem.

    Did you ever get this fixed? I'm having the same problem and can't figure out the solution.

  • I have several pics that when I click on them another photo comes up. when I click and drag the one underneath comes out but when I drop it the other photo is over top again. How can I fix this?

    I have several pics in my iphoto library that have shown up in my folders with the original photo laid underneath it. How do I seperate them?

    You don't already have a back up?
    Most Simple Back Up
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex:
    Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
    With the back up? Nothing unless things get worse after the fix. If they do, restore from the back up.

  • I am not able to change order of bookmarks or tabs by clicking and dragging. I get the circle with a slash thru it icon. How can I fix this?

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Can't use iMessage with one person but can with everyone else and he can iMessage me

    So my husband has an iPhone 5c and up until recently has has iMessage turned off. He turned it back on recently and my phone hasn't figured that out yet. It still sends texts to him as SMS instead of through iMessage, yet any texts he sends to me come in as iMessage. What gives and how can I fix it?

  • Ipod "usb device not recognised" on one computer but works with another!

    I have a 60GB ipod video and a 2GB ipod nano. Both connect fine to itunes on my work laptop but will not connect to my home laptop. They have previously worked fine with the home laptop but now when conected the message "usb device not recognised one of the usb devices connected to the computrt has malfunctioned". I have tried reinstalling itunes several times and tried the usual reset of the ipods etc but nothing seems to work.

    If you have more then one USB port, try the other port.
