HT1338 When the MacBook heats up the touch pad is erratic

When the MacBook heats up the touch pad is erratic

Take it in to an Apple Authorized Service center (Apple Store) and have it checked out. There are problems where the battery swells up and puts pressure on the bottom of the trackpad causing erratic issues like that.

Having trouble with the touch pad responding when I click it on the macbook pro I have to click it about 3 to 4 times before it works

has anyone had trouble with the touch pad on the macbook pro not working properly. I have to click it 3 or 4 times befre it responds. Can these be replaced?

Your MacBook Pro has enough compute power to do airframe stress analysis modeling or weather forecasting. This is not a computational issue.
Most USB printers do the imaging on the Mac, then send the stream of bits to the printer. The speed of doing this depends on the Printer driver.
Some drivers will image the page in "slices", and then pause to image the next slice after the first one completes. This may also depend on whether you have enough RAM memory available to do the imaging for a whole page at a time.
You have not mentioned what Printer, or whether this is indeed the latest driver for it.

I wiped down the touch pad on my MacBook Pro and now it's not working well

I wiped down the touch pad with a damp cloth on my MacBook Pro and not it's not working very well. What should I do to fix the problem?

Let it dry, it will come around. You just chilled it a little most likely, unless the cloth was very damp....
Next time use rubbing alcohol.
It removes the oils and grease and dries fast too.
So your have appy to the cloth, wipe, flip the cloth and wipe up the dirt and grime, then start the process with a new clean section of cloth, else you place the grime back on.

Anyone know when the New Tour with the touch pad will ever come out for vzw?

Anyone know when the New Tour with the touch pad will ever come out for vzw? Date,Day,Year, Month anything?

My understanding is that the new Bold 9650 is considered the "new Tour" seeing as how the Tour is the Blackberry 9630.

When does the new BlackBerry Tour with the touch pad come out?

The ear microphone on my Iphone 4 has stopped working as have the touch pad tones. Everything else appears to be ok including the microphone at the base of the unit

The phone works fine on hands free and external headsets its just when I want to use it as a phone! I have noticed a couple of times that when I have dialled the number and cannot hear a response the mute key is highlighted. Even when I cancel this I cannot hear the person on the end of the call. Furthermore the touch pad tones have gone as well. I haven't tried restoring the phone yet but not sure what data I may lose if I did that

I would call Apple tech support, which is excellent. Or take the phone to your local Apple store - not AT&T or Verizon, as the Apple techs specialize in Apple products and are somewhat fanatical about them.
Regarding the photos, they are probably still on the simm card in the phone and recoverable. Check with the Apple folks to get them back... sorry about your pet!

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 .

Hi all, new here so go easy with me ) I have a new HP pavilion G6 notebook PC, the touch pad works however not the left and right click buttons? Checked in control panel and can not find a way of enabling them. Also unable to scroll down a file in the window without using the actual scroll down bar on the right of the screen...any solutions please?

Hi Sy,
First, download the latest Synaptics driver installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp53501-54000/sp53851.exe
Next, open windows Control Panel, open Programs and Features, right click the entry 'Synaptics Pointing Device Driver' and select Uninstall.
When this has completed, restart the notebook.
When windows has fully reloaded, open your Downloads folder, right click the Synaptics installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, restart the notebook again.
Now follow the directions under the sub-heading 'Adjust horizontal and vertical scrolling' in the document on the link below to configure the scroll options as you require.
Configuring The ClickPad.

How do u reboot the computer when the control pad doesnt work

how do u reboot the macbook pro when the control pad doesnt work??? and does anyone know how to get the control pad to work i cant move the cursor??

By "control pad" do you mean "trackpad?" If the trackpad has stopped working then press the Power button and hold it down for 5-10 seconds. This will shutdown the computer. Insert the installer disc then restart the computer. After the chime press and hold down the "C" key until the computer starts up and you see the spinning gear. Then:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

Satellite L750-1E6 - How do I turn off the touch pad scrolling icon?

Hi
Please can anyone help? I want to disable an icon that appears when i use the Touch Pad. Think it's probably something to do with scrolling. I can't find any reference to it in the User Manual. It's annoying and I don't want it.
Toshiba L750-1E6 laptop Model PSK1WE-0D0009EN
Thanks for reading.

if not press the arrow and there will apear other icons look for one that loocks like a touch pad...press it > pointing device prop... > device settings > scrolling untick enable vertical and horizontal scroling.....
or if you want to keep the scrolling options in the pointing device prop go to wheel and set the horizontal and vertical scroling to 1

HT4623 cannot enter access code letters .the touch pad only shows numbers

cannot enter letters in viber access the touch pad only shows numbers

Hello,
I have the exact same problem now. I setup Lotus Traveler and enabled my code lock. When I entered the default code 12345, it asks for a new code with numbers and letters but I only have numbers available to choose on the keypad. So I am locked out and have had to go back to my old phone. There are no other options on the keypad.
Did you find a solution?

Unusable the sroll bar on the touch pad

My Laptop is HP-G42-456TX and product number is LD913PA and installed Windows7 Ultimate Serviec Pack1.
Because of my Labtop become so havy and slow I run the "Wise Registry Clenner" on 13th April 2012 and I delete all the registry found by the Sofrware I run as to be fix, some is recommeded by the software to fix, some does not recommended but I delete all. I can use continously nothing effect and I shutdown. On 14th April when I on my machine the sroll bar on the touch pad is becoming unsuable.
Some body can help me I will very happy.
Thank you.
John

Do yourself a favor and do not run registry cleaners. They are not the magical elixirs to cure all that they claim to be.
You will have to reinstall the Synaptics touchpad software to have that touchpad feature again. If it does not return the feature the I suggest backing up everything, finding the sofftware keys for additional software you installed sice purchase and doing a factory image recovery.

Equium A200-15i: I cannot use the touch pad - no response

I cannot use the touch pad in my equium A200-15i.
When I touch the pad, there is no response at all.
Please help me to solve it.
I have tried to uninstalled the program and reinstalled it, but problem still exists.

Hi
Did you check if the touchpad is enabled correctly???
Using the key combination FN+F9 you can disable and enable the touchpad functionality!
Please check this function if you have not disabled the touchpad accidentally!
Last but not least I would recommend checking the touchpad settings in the control panel mouse -> Advanced -> Advanced feature settings.
There you will find different options which can be configured to use all the available touchpad features.
Best regards

The touch pad on my Mac book Pro is very sensitive and causes changes without hardly touching it. Can this be changed or does it need replacement?

The touch pad on my Mac book Pro is very sensitive and causes changes without hardly touching it. Can this be changed or does it need replacement?

Touchpads are just that, touchpads.
You touch it and something happens unfortunately, you can't rest your fingers on it while your waiting to do something else or it triggers a response.
You either have to train yourself to remove your fingers and keep them suspended, causing wrist, arm and hand pain, or plug in a standard mouse where nothing happens until you press the button, like years of ergonomic experience has shown is a much superior method.
Touchpads are likely less expensive to produce and breakdown less often under warranty, so just like less expensive to produce glossy screens, it's a cost cutting measure they were incorporated into our devices and required users to adapt to sweeps, gestures and other useless actions for little benefit.
I've owned my Early 2011 MacBook Pro for a year now and have only used the trackpad once, the mushy keyboard perhaps only a couple of dozen times. Preferring external devices where I can rest my digits and nothing happens until I apply pressure or use a scroll wheel.
Needless to say my keyboard area is in brand new condiiton, remains covered from the original packaging, protects against dirt and spills too.
Mac's keyboard and trackpad area tend to wear out pretty fast, like in about 3 years, making one consider getting a new machine long before it physically fails.
