How do I adjust SUPER-sensitive click-wheel???  It's driving me nuts!

How do I adjust SUPER-sensitive click-wheel??? It's driving me nuts! There has to be a way to tone it down. I didn't see anything in the settings or on iTunes with it plugged in. I've compared it to many others and mine is horrible. I can't even click any of the function buttons without the click-wheel operation spinning. PLEASE HELP! Thanks a million. (3rd Gen Nano)

Someone out there has to know!

    If that doesn't work, and you by chance have at least one gmail account, you might actually have unread emails in a folder other than the Inbox.

  • IPod Touch Sensitive Click Wheel does not turn - HELP!

    Can this click wheel be fixed? Has anyone been successful? I'd love to know how and not throw $300 down the drain. Sigh. THANKS IN ADVANCE.

    Sure! Just do a web search for iPod repair and you will find plenty of places. Here is one that was at the top of a google search I just did...
    http://pdasmart.com/ipodpartscenter5g.htm
    $65 for the click wheel part and you can repair it yourself. Or $75 for mail in repair service.
    I have no experience or affilation with the above linked store, just found them first in a search.

  • Satellite P300 - how do I adjust the sensitivity of the touch pad?

    I have read all of the forums without luck. Is it possible to adjust the sensitivity of the touch pad? I have gone into the control panel and clicked through the mouse settings but there is no 'Advanced' or 'Synaptics' tabs allowing this to be adjusted. At the moment, I am using the FN + F9 to disable the touch pad altogether, however I am hoping that this is a short term solution. Thanks for any replies.

    If Synaptics driver is preinstalled on your notebook you can find advanced settings HERE .
    When you open the properties the last option is Sensitivity .

  • How Do I Adjust the Double-Click Speed in 10.8.3

    Hi. I only found this to adjust the double click speed for Lion http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4930
    but how do you adjust it if your Lion's version is 10.8.3?
    Thank you for your time.
    Have a great sunday & a nice sunday mass.
    God bless.

    For 10.8.3,  it's in System Preferences > Accessiblity > highlight Mouse & trackpad on the left.  The Double click speed slider shows on the right.  Moving it to the left gives you more time between clicks.  Moving it right gives you less time.

  • IPod Classic' Click Wheel Sensitivity

    I just got iPod Classic 80Gb. The click wheel is so bad. Sometimes it doesn't work. I have read in this forum about this issue and found a lot of people also have this issue. I was thinking to exchange with the new one because I still have the warranty. Do you think I just wait for the firmwire fixes it or just exchange it. Is it possible to exchange with this issue? I had iPod Video 30Gb 5th generation and it was a lot easier to adjust with the click wheel.
    Thanks,

    That may work for some, but for me it is the opoposite. If my fingers are too dry (I tend to have very dry skin) I need to add a little oil or just a lick of my finger in order to get the wheel to respond better. Yes, I have the latest firmware.
    So if the above cleaning does not work for you, try the opposite - add a bit of moisture to your finger.

    "I noticed that the latest firmware seemed to make navigation with the click wheel more precise and less sluggish. Additionally I suppose (not sure though) that the technology behind a click wheel is similar to that behind the laptops' touchpads or trackpads. Advices like those below work for me:
    http://tech.yahoo.com/gd/cleaning-your-laptop-s-touchpad/153160
    *Carefully clean finger oils and dirt from your laptop's touchpad with a damp cloth; you can also add a small amount - less than 50 percent of the solution - of isopropyl alcohol.
    Touchpads are sealed, so you probably don't have to worry about a touchpad problem developing because of dirt or dust. Touchpads can become slippery or sticky from the transfer of oils or other substances from the fingers of those troublesome humans who use them, though")

  • IPod Blue Case - anyone having problem with dye rubbing off on click wheel?

    I purchased a new iPod 30gb a month ago and for some reason the blue due from the case supplied with the ipod has rubbed off in splotches on the click wheel of my ipod. I can't seem to remove it with anything.
    Apple says this is a cosmetic thing they don't cover - I realize that but its a drag after only having it for such a short time.
    Anyone else have this problem - suggestions or how to clean it off the click wheel?
    Thanks,

    Unfortunately I had the same problem.my advice for all new users wash the cover carefully before using it!!!

  • In Logic X, the mouse click wheel scroll is way too fast on the arrange window and the piano roll.  Is there a way to adjust this?

    In Logic X, the mouse click wheel scroll is way too fast on the arrange window and the piano roll.  Is there a way to adjust this?  This is the way I scrolled for MIDI editing on Logic 9

    Hi cris2121, assuming you're using a mouse from apple, go to >System Preferences<
    it's here where one can configure a mouse device.
    Additionally you can also configure Scrubbing in Logic: "When in scrub mode, you can slowly move the playhead in the Tracks Window and the Audio (and optional MIDI) will be played back. The playback speed depends on how fast you move the Playhead in either direction."
    Have a nice day!

  • Lost sensitivity on click wheel

    Hi:
    I have a 20GB 4th Gen. iPod. I recently lost touch-sensitivity in the click wheel of my iPod. The buttons still work, but I cannot scroll through the iPod menus or adjust the volume. I am also unable to reset the iPod by holding down the Menu and Select buttons. I have reset the iPod using the iPod Software Updater, but that did not alleviate the problem. Most importantly, my iPod is no longer under warranty, so if anyone could offer any possible solutions, I would truly appreciate it.
    Thanks!

    This has happened to my iPod Quite a few times.
    All i do to resolve this is get a damp dish cloth and just clean the dam thing. Dry it off. And then it should be OK

  • Click Wheel Very Sensitive

    The click wheel on my new iPod Nano 3rd Gen seems very sensitive. When I think it's set on a menu selection I lift my thumb (carefully) and it moves up or down. Is there a way to adjust the click wheel so it has a heavier action?

    You know I have this problem too... I do have a silicone skin over it which I thought was most of the problem.. But I went looking in settings and thought let's turn on the clicker (Settings/Clicker). I think it actually helps - it might be that the act of clicking slows it down ever so slightly.
    It's weird I picked it up and it seemed to do it... then I turned the Clicker on speaker played with it and then turned it off and I swear it works better. If you don't mind the clicker maybe leaving it on makes sense

  • How Can I Recover Paid For iPod Click Wheel Games

    Well, well, well.  It seems that Apple iTunes had really ****** me off today.  Here is what happened
    Recovering iPod Classic Click Wheel Games
    Here is my story and at the bottom are my Questions
    The hard drive on my old computer crashed and I bought myself a new one.  When I finally decided to put more on music onto my iPod Classic something happened.  iTunes disabled without deleting my $300 worth of iPod Classic Click Wheel Games.  I've called and contacted them for support to no avail.  I believe I forgot to authorize my new computer before putting on my new music.
    Just before Christmas I called Apple support asking questions & the man on the phone didn't have very good advice for me.  He said that maybe iTunes could replace the games for me.  So I started looking at iTunes for iPod Classic Click Wheel Games and they were no where to be found.  Apparently Apple had removed them from the store and yet they sell iPod classics.
    http://www.macrumors.com/2011/09/30/apple-removes-ipod-click-wheel-games-from-it unes/
    After Christmas I tried again to contact them about my iPod Classic to try and have my $300 worth of click wheel games replaced.  While I waited on the phone for an hour while they played poor quality music into my ear giving me sever headache.  I was already frustrated as it is and when I got a hold of someone she I had trouble understanding her.  (I have poor hearing, had a headache and was frustrated)  She gave me advice to contact Apple about the iTunes store.  I called again and got a hold of someone who i could better understand.  He gave me a step by step information which was the same as the last person I had contacted.
    Now I sent an email to iTunes store asking if i could get help
    All the iPod Classic Click wheel games files were still on my iPod.  Now I needed some way of retrieving the files.  I made a that attempt at contacting apple and they told me that i Could "Check for Available Downloads".  Which was the very first thing I'd Tried.  But these are files which i believe apple only allowed One Download.  I could not get my files from Apple.
    Now I sent them a 4th Very long message stating what happened and Asking for Answers for Four Questions.
    The files are still on my iPod Classic & I would like to Please get some answers to My Questions Which I WANT You PLEASE to Help Me with.  
    The files are still on my iPod Classic & I would like to know.
    1) Is there a way for me to Re-Activate my 2.3gb of iPod Classic Games so that they will once again work?
    2) Is it possible to copy the games from my iPod onto my computer & How Can I Copy these iPod Classic Games from my iPod Back Onto my Computer?
    3) If I can find these files from somewhere else lets say one of my friends or Bit Torrent.  Can I copy or download the files to Replace my $300 worth of games and put them back onto my iPod?   
    4) If I find a way to replace my games without Apple & iTunes help.  Will Apple iTunes let me put the games back onto my iPod without deleting them thinking that I have stolen something which i paid for?  
    After all I have already paid for the files. 
    I really want to Download these games back from Apple iTunes Or to re-activate my iPod classic games and copy them from my iPod back onto my computer.  It seems that this isn't possible.  If this isn't possible I Am Going to Be very Skeptical about ever getting a iPod Touch or iPhone.  I've already been telling a lot of people about my problem.
    So Far Unfortunately for me Apple & iTunes has not been very much help.
    Thank You for reading my message.  Please help me with the answers to the 4 Questions
    The message which they sent back Has Made Me Angry.  I'm Not going on apple pay per incident Paying $35 for a phone call if they can't send me an email with answers to these four ******g questions.  So I suppose you can tell that right now I Am ****** Off.
    Since I sent the first message I authorized my new computer which didn't re-activate me games. 
    Then I went onto Google searching "how to copy files from iPod to computer." 
    Which Led me to this website
    http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/copying-music-from-ipod-to-co mputer/
    I downloaded a trial version of Touch Copy
    Somehow I managed to re-activate my lost games and copy most of the files back onto my computer using "Touch Copy". 
    Then I downloaded the last 4 missing files from somewhere else but I'm not posting where i got them.
    Now that I have fixed my problem without Apple's expensive help
    I Really Want To Know the answers to questions # 3 & 4
    3) Can I copy or download the files to Replace my $300 worth of games and put them back onto my iPod?
    4) Will Apple iTunes let me put the games back onto my iPod without deleting them thinking that I have stolen something which i paid for?  
    After all I have already paid $300 for the files.
    I Thank You For taking the time to read my message. 
    PLEASE HELP ME

    Transfer your purchases into an authorized library, recover other media from the device, restore the device.

    Transfer your purchases into an authorized library

    Not really. All ClickWheel games should be locked to the account used to purchase them. If your friend wished to authorize your library that would work. At the time of purchase you were told that you got only one (successful) download of the content after which it would be your responsibility to maintain backups.
    4) If I find a way to replace my games without Apple & iTunes help.  Will Apple iTunes let me put the games back onto my iPod without deleting them thinking that I have stolen something which i paid for?  
    It will be fine. If you transfer the games into your library they can then be copied to any compatible device where they will work. The key is that the library doing the transfer is authorized to the relevant account when you update the content.

    Connect the iPod nano to the computer the exact same way you set up the old one. You don't need to create another Apple ID, iTunes Store account, or iTunes library.
