Help me! - trackpad problem - really weird

I have a much loved Macbook Pro from 2009. Last night the click on the trackpad stopped working. The pointer still worked but just no click. I turned the computer off and turned it upside down overnight in case water or something got into it, so it would drain out or dislodge. Then this morning the click was working again. But it felt a slight bit different. Less of a pronounced "click" feeling and more of a soft click. But still seems to be working. However, sometimes I can't highlight text and often I cant drag the blue side bar on websites to scroll down. I click on the blue side bar and try to drag it down to scroll but it just doesn't work.
Is there a way to fix it myself? What could be causing it? Would this be expensive to fix if I take it to the Mac store?
Many thanks!

Go to the local hardware store and get a #00 Phillips driver.  There is no reason that you cannot open it your self.  Just note where the different length screws go.
Ciao.

  • JTable setPreferredWidth problem, really weird

    Hi,
    I am using the following method to set JTable column width everytime I made some changes to
    the database that JTable connected with.
    //tableView is JTable object
    //displayWidth array is defined to be customized column width int
    public void arrangeCol() {
    tableView.setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF);
    TableColumnModel colModel = tableView.getColumnModel();
    //Get the column at index col, and set its preferred width.
    for(int col=0; col<dataBase.getColumnCount(); col++){
    colModel.getColumn(col).setMaxWidth(Globals.maxwidth[col]);
    colModel.getColumn(col).setMinWidth(Globals.minwidth[col]);
    colModel.getColumn(col).setPreferredWidth(displayWidth[col]);
    tableView.repaint();
    However, I am using Visual Cafe 3.0c for development environment, everytime I call this method,
    it will set the column width all to default width 75. But if I run it under Linux, this method works.
    Have you ever run into such problems? Do you have any idea why such a weird problem? How I can fix that?
    Thanks a lot.

    I found it and tried it out (to the letter!). Doesn't seem to do anything. There's still this magenta cast. So I guess, double profiling is still going on.
    Since LR works fine, I guess I'll do all my printing using that application then. :(
    Still, it strikes me as odd that LR works fine, and PS does not. This suggests to me that there's a problem with PS and not so much with the Canon driver (although, I absolutely agree it would be wonderful if Canon finally allowed us to truly switch off colour management in their driver).

  • HELP! iPhone acting really weird!!!

    My iphone keeps on rebooting. The apple logo comes and then dims and reboots again. The only way it can get close to normal is if i plug it in the dock or in the charger. Although right when it opens it asks if i want to turn off the iphone and gives me the red slider. Also when its plugged in, the lock button wont respond at all. The phone will only turn on and off by itself. When I take it out of the charger after a couple of minutes the apple logo come and keeps on rebooting forever without me doing anything. I dont know what to do at this point! Im really desperate.

    Are you able to reset?
    Restore?

  • Really weird network problem... Please help!

    This is really starting to tick me off, so I hope you can help me. This isn't exactly Archlinux related, but the problem persists on the whole network regardless of OS being used.
    Ok, so I got my new D-Link 5-port switch home a few days ago. I wanted to hook up my laptop so it could access the internet.
    I'll try to illustrate how the layout of the network is made up in my home:
    Internet -------> Router -------> Switch -----------> My dad's computer
                                                             |
                                                             -----------> My switch -------------> My main desktop
                                                                                             |
                                                                                             -------------> My laptop
    As you see, we split the internet between our 3 computers, where 2 of them are mine, and 1 is my dad's. The problem is, that we can't run more than 2 computers online. DHCP just won't function.
    If I have both of my computers online, my dad can't connect to the internet. If my dad has his computer online, I can't connect with 1 of my computers. So we are constantly only able to be 2 on the internet. I see no logical explaination for why this is happening, because the internet is split on the first switch, to my dad and me, then from my own switch, I split my connection between my 2 computers.
    Please help me, this is really giving me an edge. I REALLY hope you can help

    SomeoneWithAPurpose wrote:IP-Address: 87.58.149.226
    That confirms my suspicion.
    I think I can explain the problem. Every computer that connects to a network needs an IP address. Normally you connect a router to the internet and the router gets a public IP address from the ISP's server. This is the address that people see when you connect to their sites. When you connect your computer to the router, the router gives you a different IP address. that only people on your LAN can see. The router can give several addresses because they are only used on the LAN, so you can connect multiple computers to it and each one can get a unique IP address. When you connect to the internet, your computers communicates with the router using private IP addresses on the LAN, then your router communicates with computers on the internet using public IP addresses.
    In your case, your router is not configured to give out IP addresses. Instead, when you connect you are getting a public IP address directly from the ISP's server. Your ISP only has 2 public IP addresses that it can give you so that is why you cannot connect more than 2 computers at a time. You need to configure your router to act as a gateway between your LAN and the internet. To do this,  you have to access the router's menu and set up a dhcp server (which gives out IP addresses on the LAN) along with a firewall and whatever else you need (your current setup makes your computer directly accessible from the internet which can be unsafe, especially when running Windows).
    Oh damn.
    I went downstairs to find out where the manuals for the router were... Turns out we don't have a router ...
    All we have is 3 boxes; A internet phone adapter, a ethernet xDSL modem and a switch. Maybe this is why it's all ****ed up? Sorry for the misleading, but my dad always told me that we had a router. =\
    Ah... yeah, that's a problem. What brand is the modem? Maybe it has some router functionality anyway.

  • Really weird laptop problem, please help!

    Hi,
    I just got a new laptop this weekend, Lenovo S205, everything is perfect and so far I love it.
    However, one really weird problem i cannot find an answer for anywhere.
    When I shut the laptop down it instantly restarts. Doesnt matter if I hold the power button down either, as soon as I let go it boots back up.
    I have no peripherals plugged in or anything. 
    I'm totally stumped!!
    Its really annoying as the only way to turn my laptop off is to unplugged the battery, or just let it run down.
    Any ideas much appreciated.
    j

    Hi and welcome,
    did you prove your energymanagement & a few windows settings  at the end of this EM Settings in knowledgebase...
    as well something could provoke restart instead of shutdown ...
    Best is to exclude software failure,  restore to factory condition with dvds ..  Create Factory Disc
    after factory restore ... if your S205 have same behaviour ...call your local service..

  • My trackpad is sounding really weird and i have warranty! what can i do? PLEASE HELP

    i dont know this normal or not this an 2 week old white macbook and the trackpad is sound weird and it depends on what surface you put it!

    I had a similar problem and just found a fix for it.
    My problem was that on one spot, the clicking seemed muffled, as if something was stuck underneath the trackpad, and near that spot, one time out of two, the click was twice as loud as normal, like it was "unsticking" something.
    Anyways, I read that you could apply a good amount of pressure (as in push hard) on the whole trackpad (I used 6 fingers) for 2-3 seconds to fix this. It worked for me. I also read about gently hitting it with your fist... don't know if it works, but I didn't quite want to hit my MBP with my fist...

  • Using iWeb to publish my mobileme photo gallery -really weird bugs help plz

    I have a really weird problem and have tried searching the forums already with no luck.
    I'm using iWeb09 to put mobileme photo album on my website. When I initially add the widget onto my page, the widgets will show a "preview" of what pictures are in the gallery if you hover your mouse over it. Later during the day, I'm not sure if I did anything to mess it up but that "preview" is no longer there. It's just a black box. It still works however if you click on it because it takes you to the mobile gallery.
    The only way for me to fix it was to delete the mobile me album and create a new one. Then re-add the widget onto my iWeb.
    This has happened twice to me already and I cannot figure out why it happens. I'm sorry if my description is vague. Please help.

    There is no point in re-installing iWeb, because after you have published it really is not an iWeb problem - if there is something not working on uploading the files, then it is really nothing to do with iWeb after html pages have been created.
    If you are using Fetch to upload, then you have obviously published your site to a local folder? If so, are the photos there when you look at your local site? If they are there when you publish to a local site, then it is an error in uploading and if photos do not show, it means that some things are not being uploaded to your server correctly.
    Have you tried using Cyberduck instead of Fetch? Cyberduck or Transmit are two of the better ftp programmes to try.

  • Dock acting really weird - Please help!

    After installing the Mobile ME update and iTunes 7.7, my dock has been acting really weird.
    1. I usually set the default dock size at the smallest possible. However, now when you left click on the separator of folders and applications, it allows the dock to become smaller than possible when setting from the Preference Pane
    2. The dock automatically becomes smaller over time until the icons are really tiny.
    Is this a bug encountered by anyone else? It really bugs me that I have to keep pulling the dock to a standard size. Can someone please help me out of this mess?

    Hey VK
    Thanks for the quick response.
    I did just that. Deleted the com.apple.dock.plist under my user home directory/Library/Preferences.
    While it reset the dock, the problem still remains. You can view the problem by
    1. Setting the dock to the smallest possible size via the Preference Pane
    2. Turn on magnification and bring it closer to the left side of the adjustable bar
    3. Now, use your mouse to drag the dock by the separator
    Observation: The dock will become smaller than is "set" by the bar in Preference Pane
    4. Click on the bar in the preference pane, set at small, the dock will resize itself again
    5. Choose the dock to be set on the right
    6. Choose it to be set at bottom
    Observation: The dock is a LOT smaller than it could ever have been.
    7. Click on the smallest possible size in the preference pane, the dock resizes itself
    8. The dock keeps getting smaller over time still. =(!

  • Text in Hebrew has gone really weird in Motion and FCP - please help!

    Hi,
    I have been working in a project for a long time, and produced hundreds of simple titles in Motion in Hebrew. The font I have used throughout is Arial Rounded MT Bold.
    In the latest title I added one text object and made it Italic. Since then, all my Hebrew text in this title and now any previous title I open appears really weird (the vowles are disjoined from the consonants). I have turned off the Italics option on all the titles but it still does the same thing.
    This occurs even in a brand new title, where I paste the Hebrew directly into a new text object.
    I am desperate for someone to help me, as I have a tight deadline on this one. All previous titles I open appear the same, even though they were fine in the past. I have tried deleting the preference file.
    I am using Motion 4 (FCS 3) on a iMac bought last year, quad core intel.
    Please help!
    Thanks

    Thank you so much!
    Arial did not work, but Arial Bold and Arial Hebrew did!
    The font doesn't match what I was using before. I have no idea what it was using previously, but at least I can proceed from here. My previous projects have all been output to movie files so even if the motion files are now messed up, it's not the end of the world!
    Thanks again

  • Really weird problem -- won't download mail from one sender

    I'm having a really weird problem. Apple Mail won't retrieve mail from my Gmail account via POP3 from one sender only. All other mail is downloaded normally, except from a particular sender. What could be causing this? Thanks.

    I am trying to remember and research something about the Junk filter and Gmail accounts. Have you checked in your Junk mailbox, if Junk in enabled and there is a separate Junk mailbox?
    If you click on my name to the left, and look in the bio line of the resulting Profile, you will find an email address you can reach me with. If you email me at that address, I will send you a Gmail address that your sender can test sending a message to me at my Gmail account.

    Is there anyone that can tell me a little bit about what is going on?

    I've restored it several times with no backup at all and it doesn't seem to help.  Almost all of my apps crash I have deleted almost all of them hoping if it was a memory prob it would be fixed but no the main one is safari it crashes all the time.  It also just acts really weird. When I am typing anything on safari the letters will drag and then slowly catch up when I'm typing.  It will also go to a different kind of screen format like its trying to figure out if it's a computer or phone when I rotate the screen.  I have go in and delete the website data and clear everything almost everyday and it still does this.  Hope that helps, if you have any idea on what's going on or any other advice on how to fix I'd love the help thanks

  • Is My Iphone 3gs the only one that does this really weird glitch

    ok i have a issue i looked everywhere and i did not see anything in the forums about this
    when i am replying to a text message and auto-spell types something so i hit the back button/delete key to rewrite what i want to type and it does not delete the text it just goes over the letters and doesn't delete it and sometimes the cursor will just get stuck and sometimes the cursor when i am deleting text will keep going over the letters i am typing and doesn't do anything , so as i hit back/delete button on keyboard it just keeps going over the letters and does not delete its really weird, and this is my 2nd new iphone 3gs for a different issue, and they both did that.
    what i want to know is if this is a hardware problem and should i take it in to get it replaced again which i hate doing,since i got a good iphone 3gs this time...has this happened to anyone else,or does this happen to anyone else
    any help would great thank you

    Well if it happened to 2 different iphones perhaps something is corrupted in your backup restore file. By restoring your new phone with this old backup restore file u may be copying over the problem.
    Solution: Restore and setup your iphone as a 'New' phone instead of restoring from a previous backup. This should solve your problem.

  • I have a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks 10.9.5 and some keys that are not working. Specifically, the enter/return button, the "p", "0", ";", and all the function keys.  What's really weird is that happens randomly.  I've never spilled anything on it

    I have a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks 10.9.5 and some keys randomly are not working. Specifically, the enter/return button, the "p", "0", ";", and all the function keys.  What's really weird is that happens randomly.  I've never spilled anything on it, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix this.  Can anyone help?  of course this happened after my warranty expired.

    **update**
    I don't know if this will help someone but I am posting this for that purpose.  In the past when I first had this problem, I'd read a post somewhere (sorry, long ago, don't have the link) where an individual was having the same problem and they stated that when the MBP got heated, that's when the keys would stop working, and they went into the MBP and jiggle some stuff around (a specific wire, I'm not electronically inclined so I know NOT of what they spake!).  Well I didn't want to do that but it always stuck in the back of my mind.  I had given up, really, and was planning to take my MBP to the apple store.  But by chance one night I left my MBP on the floor where it's cool, and when I turned it on, the problem went - poof! It seems there was some validity to the post that spoke about heat, because my problems started when I would stream foreign dramas on my MBP for hours at night, and I would hear the fan going off all the time, and in the mornings, my "p", "enter", "0", ";", and all the function keys would stop working. 
    So, maybe try keeping the MBP in a cool place when it's off.  Since I've started doing this overnight every night (keeping it on the cool floor, out of reach of any big feet), I have not had a single problem with my keyboard.
    Hopefully this might help someone.

  • Really Weird Bug?

    I have this really weird bug on my mac. I don't think the manual says anything about this so I have come here. Sometimes, for no apparent reason, music starts playing. I have never heard this music before (besides during this bug) and there is no way to turn it off besides restarting the computer. Restarting the computer is a temporary fix, but the music comes back after awhile. No applications have to be open in order for the music to start playing. I have even quit all applications (including finder) in order to try to stop the music but none of it works. (And BTW it can start without itunes opening up. I never opened itunes and it all of a sudden started so it is not an itunes problem) I have absolutely no idea how to fix the bug, so somebody help?????

    Hahaha it was a really big DUH for me, so Duh thats its embarrassing...sorry guys lol
