HP Z Book 15 Turn Off the Touchpad

My touchpad drives me nuts. Where I hole my hand while typing constantly makes the text jump to other areas and I find myself typing 2 paragraphs up. Love the laptop but ready to toss it over this ebcause I can't get anything done. It says to double tap the top left to turn it off....well mine doesn't do that. I have tapped this thing everyway possible and I have never seen a light come on. All the Help sections say go to Synaptics...but my computer does not have this tab. I just got the computer so you would think it would have the latest everything. Is there any way to turn off this touchpad??????!!! Again..going to Devices does not work...there is no "Synaptics" tab..there is nothing that says touchpad...I just want it disabled forever..please help before this thing becomes an anchor and I go get a Mac!
This question was solved.

  • Turning off the touchpad on my Probook 640

    Hi,
    I'm running a recent windows OS and I can't disable the touchpad.....the thing is unusable while it's on...it's far too sensitive.
    I've seen the info about the light on the touchpad...that hasn't worked.
    When I click into "Mouse" I don't get an option to "disable" the PS/2 ...I can "uninstall"  via the device manager which works but keeps turning itself back on!
    It's driving me insane...please help!

    Hi,
    Your machine has On/Off button as shown:
    Please use your finger touch (or quick double touch) to the area (#3 above) to turn On or Off the touchpad.
    Regards.

  • Can't turn off the touchpad using the double-touch gesture

    I just bought HP 1000-1b09AU Notebook PC. And I think the touchpad on/off (button?) is not working. I know how to turn on/off the touchpad, it is by doing double tap/touch on the turn on/off area of the touchpad.
    I don't know why it's not working, since I've already installed the driver of the (Synaptics) touchpad. How do I resolve this? Help me, please.

    @Bill468 
    It is not an issue of whether double-tap is the method to toggle it on or off, but rather whether that guesture or method has been disabled, preventing it from functioning, which is why I was asking you to be sure the various gestures were not disabled.
    At this point, if you have already verified that the relevant gestures are enabled, then it may be best to call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

  • How do you turn off the touchpad when playing a fu...

    I've had my N97 Mini for a while now. Its pretty good overall but I've encountered one constant problem that keeps occurring when I enter a full screen game. I've recently installed Real Football Manager 2010 by Gameloft, the game is made for n97i and is suppose to be played full screen. When ever I start the game, a annoying touchpad pops up and blocks half the screen. How do you turn this off???? Is there another way to solve this problem???

  • Can you turn off the automatic guide grids in Aperture books?

    Can you turn off the automatic guide grids in Aperture books?

    Yes you can do this - either the way you're already doing it by editing the published content or by changing the source code in the template itself.
    I won't get into the details here cuz I have all this documented here:
    http://web.mac.com/sboben/iWeb/11Mystics/
    See the iWeb Templates page. In short, what you have to do is show package contents for the iWeb app, open the Resources folder, open the .lproj folder for YOUR language, likely english, open the Templates folder and then one by one, for each page-type folder you find in there, you have to show package contents for your chosen template, unzip the index.xml.gz files, find the hyperlink settings in the XML, turn off the underline setting, save the file again and rezip it. Then any NEW pages you build will not contain underlined links. It sounds worse than it is.
    If you tell me which template you're using, I'll go look in the file and tell you how to turn the underline code OFF. But you should read my instructions at my site before you even try to do this - I outline some things you should know before even opening up those XML files.

  • IOS 8 on the iPad:  How can I turn off the night view in the iBook bookshelf?

    I've already turned off the automatic switch to white on black in low light while reading my book.  But other areas, such as the shelves still switch to night view and I can't find where to turn that off.

    Settings, general, passcode lock, enter passcode, turn passcode off.

  • In a fixed-layout epub is there a way to turn off the faux spine effect for just one pair of pages?

    I'm formatting a graphic novel as a fixed-layout epub.  Because the pages are generated in Manga Studio with an intended print target, it by far makes the most sense to just use a single, large image for each page.  I'm coding the .opf, .xhtml, and .css files by hand, and I more or less understand everything I'm doing.
    Because the pages are often full bleed, I actually want the faux book chrome afforded by having <meta property="ibooks:binding">true</meta>.  The shadow effect in the gutter gives a nice deliniation between the pages without me having to do anything additional with the formatting.
    However... a handful of pages in the book are two-page spreads.  These look good enough with the shadow spine in the middle, but they would obviously look better without it.  What I'd like to do is identify these particular page pairs as two-page spreads and turn the binding chrome off for just that page pair.  I could of course "fake it" by adding a shadow to the pages themselves (except the spreads) and turning off the binding chrome on the entire book, but it'd be a lot easier to be able to do it in software.
    Apple's formatting guide mentioned nothing of the sort, and searching for a while hasn't turned up anything (not even anyone asking the same question so far as I can tell).  I'm guessing this isn't possible, but it never hurts to ask.  Anybody know of a way to do this?

    Just found this... Sorry to waste the post...

  • Mac book pro, Turns off and goes under protection especially with an External monitor on.

    Mac book pro,
    Turns off and goes under protection, sometimes without any specific motivation, but most of the time when an External monitor is pluged-in.
    I use it when I work with final cut pro, and this problem it's becoming huge and changing my workplans....
    It can turns off also 10 times in two hours.
    In many forums I read that the CPU temp could be the problem, but I've checked it and It's always around 62°-68°....
    In some others they say that the new RAM could be the problem too.
    Is anybody able to help me? (Underneath you can check the Panic Report and my mac informations)
    Thank you so much.

    How do I turn off the Power button lockout on my HPw1858 monitor?
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Power Button Lockout is displayed.
    The monitor's Power Button Lockout function is enabled.
    Press and hold the Power button for 10 seconds to unlock the Power button function.
    If the above doesn't work then try a monitor reset.  Unplug the monitor’s power cord and hold down the monitor’s power button for 30-60 seconds. Plug the monitor back in and power it up.

  • Different ways to turn off the Blackberry 8330

    ok..maybe this is a silly question...I know how to turn off the blackberry on the main page but how do you turn the blackberry off from the second page like some people do....as in the page that shows yahoo, facebook,address book,etc.  and when it is turned back on it is on that page not the first.
    Thanks!  

    Greetings, and welcome to the BlackBerry.com Support Forums.
    I don't know what a first page and second page is...
    But, when the BlackBerry starts up, it will always return to the homescreen, not another 'page'.
