HT3986 Apple multi touch trackpad  problems on Windows 7 64 bit bootcamp

After installing Windows 7 on Mac Pro (2011) double tap gesture on Apple mult touch tackpad does not work . Any ideas ?

Yes I did that but although the trackpad worked it did not respond to the  tap rather than left clicking  - After posting the query I discovered, following a search of how to switch operating systems, that 'Control Panel/Bootcamp'  revealed adjustments that can be made to the trackpad & it now works - Thanks for you help anyway.

    MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013): Keyboard and Multi-Touch trackpad may become unresponsive
    Has anone tried to apply this patch on 15 inc ?
    Kind Regards,
    Neroshige

    The patch is only for MBP late 2013 13 inch. 15 inch is not able to install this patch
    I'm facing this problem intermittently.
    When my keyboard & trackpad went unresponsive, I plug in my USB keyboard and the keyboard & trackpad went back normal.
    I search the web and somebody highlight it may due to connector to keyboard/trackpad appear to be curled.
    Not sure is hardware problem or software bug...

  • How to use the multi-touch trackpad to adjust icon size?

    After I upgrade my OS X 10.6 to 10.9.2, I lost.
    Everyday I search the forum to look for the "feeling" of using Mac OS (migrate from windows to OS X10.6). The OS X 10.6 is just great.
    Now the questions, how to use the multi-touch trackpad to adjust icon size with simple pinch open or close gesture?
    Thank you.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're users here and don't speak for "Apple Inc."
    Using the multi-touch trackpad to 'zoom' in or out is temporary.
    The best way to permanently change icon size on the Desktop is to Command+click on an empty place on the Desktop screen and select Icon Size from the Desktop preference pane:

  • Multi-touch trackpad is not working correctly anymore

    My multi-touch trackpad is not working - it stops working after the first 10 seconds.
    It is since today.
    After reboot it works for the first 10 seconds - then it is like it needs to have a few seconds for reaction.
    Any idea for the permanent blocking of the cursor?

    That's really bizarre! I've been experiencing the same problems. Today my three/four finger multitouch gestures stopped working altogether! Nothing seemed to resolve the problem (restart, shut down, etc).I did however follow your advice of creating a new user account and logging in to see if multitouch works...low and behold, it worked! I then logged off and signed back into my primary user account and multitouch continued to work! This must be a software issue (I'm guessing). I just deleted the temporary user account and everything seems to be working fine. I set up a Genius Bar appointment for tomorrow - I'll see if they have any further suggestions.
    Thanks!

  • Fatal Error installing Apple Multi touch

    My Multi Touch trackpad will no longer install when running my MB Pro as Windows XP machine. It does work if I'm running XP through VM Fusionware. This seems to have started after an update. Any information to fix is appreciated.

  • IPhone 3GS SYnc problems with Windows 7 64 Bit

    I am having sync problems with windows 7 64 Bit.
    The iPhone syncs a few tracks then hangs, a few minutes later itunes tells me the iphone has timed out.
    Anyone have any ideas about this. I have tried different USB ports, cleaned the apple USB cable contacts with Servisol, restored the iPhone and reinstalled itunes.
    iPhone and iTunes are latest versions.
    Thanks
    Joe

    "Try this connect the iPhone, let the mtp driver installation fail, then go into the device manager and uninstall the unknown mtp device. If you then scan for new hardware from the device manager it should recognize the iPhone & update the driver."
    Ok here's what I did:
    1) Connect the iPhone (iTunes had been installed)
    2) No MTP driver installation is happening as Windows detects iPhone successfully
    3) Open Device Manager
    4) There seems to be 2 drivers for iPhone that are active now, although I still can't see which one is the MPT driver you're referring to.
    One of them sits under Portable Devices: "Apple iPhone". If I view the details of this driver, it lists the following files:
    - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\UMDF\WpdMtpDr.dll
    - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\winusb.sys
    - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\WUDFRd.sys
    - C:\Windows\system32\WpdMtp.dll
    - C:\Windows\system32\WpdMtpUS.dll
    The other one sits under Universal Serial Bus controllers: "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver". And as indicated by Joe above, it lists the following files when I view the Details:
    - C:\Windows\system32\Drivers\usbaapl64.sys
    - C:\Windows\system32\usbaaplrc.dll

  • Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit)

    First of all my windows is not genuine, but on my friend's desktop oracle download and installation  worked fine, he chose "create and configure database" options, and it works very well on his desktop, though his windows is also illegitimate. In my case, when I select "Create and configure database" option and pressed 'next",
    (Go to my blog to see it with snapshots: Computer Science: Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit))
    it asks to select class, I select "Desktop class" and pressed "next". The moment I pressed "next", the whole setup thing disappeared like it was never started. I searched for all possible reasons for why its not getting installed on my laptop, I used registry cleaner s/w,  deleted 25 GB of data to create free space if it were the problem, increased the virtual memory to increase the space for RAM, I did almost everything to get this setup working, but I found no success with the "Create and Configure database" option
    and
    then
    I chose a "database software only" option and chose to store in a folder w/o spaces. This way, I got database s/w only and then later I found "Database configuration Assistant (DBCA)"  from windows START button and clicked to create and configure database manually. The steps are pretty much interactive and doesn't involve much brainstorming.
    The values I filled for
    1) Global Database Name :  orcl
    2) System Identifier : orcl
    3) I chose common password for both SYS and SYSTEM
    4) while on Enterprise Manager Configuration step, It asked me to create and configure listener in oracle home, so for that too, I typed "netca" in windows START menu and clicked it. There I added a listener.
    5) I chose a Storage area which was the Oracle-home itself i.e. where our installation files goes , in my case it is : C:\oracle_base\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\oradata
    6) Then after few more nitty-gritty clicks, we are set to go !
    Finally to write SQL code and to create your first TABLE , type "sqlplus" in windows "START" menu and click it when it appears. A command-prompt like window appears , which will ask you for username and password, so here they are :
    Username : sys/ as sysdba
    Password : (its the one you created in step 3 stated above )
    After this you are ready to write your first SQL command.

    Is this your solution to your original post at Oracle database 11g release 2 installation on windows 7 (64-bit) ?
    Pl be aware that you should not create any custom objects in SYS or SYSTEM schema - you should create any such objects in a separate custom schema.

  • Lightroom 3.2 Installation Problem on Windows 7 64-bit

    Lightroom 3.2 Installation Problem on Windows 7 64-bit
    I can't install Lightroom 3.2 (German) on my computer (Windows 7 Professional 64-bit).
    While copying the extracted program files the following error message appears:
    An error occurred during the installation of assembly component {6435B7C0-E0C8-3EA2-91AE-7640034EAFCE}. HRESULT: 0x80070002.
    I found out that other users had the same problem, and couldn't find a solution.
    Perhaps it is a Microsoft .NET Framework related problem. But after installing .NET Framework 4 nothing changed.
    Thanks for ideas to solve the problem.

    Thanks for your advice, Mr. McLion.
    I downloaded the 3.4.1 version and started the installation as administrator. Unfortunately the same error message occured again.
    Then I tried to install the 32-bit version (although I prefer a 64-bit program on a 64-bit operating system). A similar error message appeared at the same point of installation progress, but with another combination of numbers and letters in brackets.

  • TS3918 I am experiencing this problem on Windows 7 64 bit.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    I am experiencing aniTunes reinstall problem on Windows 7 64 bit.    I have uninstalled the iTunes product and reinstalled 11.02 for windows 7 64 bit but can't get iTunes going again.  The first error message I get is: "The file "iTunes Libirary.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes".  The next error message I get is:  "There is a problem sending the command to the program."  Any suggestions on what to do next would be appreciated. ( I would have posted this in Windows area had I been given a choice.)

    I believe that message can sometimes be a sign of a corrupt library file, unless of course you've tried to downgrade to an older build of iTunes. Restore it as described in this post.

  • ATI HD 2600 PRO WINDOWS 7 64 BIT BOOTCAMP DRIVER ERROR

    as with the windows xp bootcamp insatllation my grahics card the ATI RADEON PRO HD 2600 shows up under device manager as the Ati MOBILITY 2600 XT, this is NOT correct and wasnt correct when i had windows xp installed via bootcamp but the online trick/fix worked by installing the newer updated drivers for the ATI RADEON HD 2600 PRO by manually pointing the installer to the newly download drivers for xp and once that was done my card read correctly under the device manegr in xp and my performance was quadrupled !!!! however since i have now installed Windows 7 64 bit,the same problem appears agin but when i download the correct 64 bit windows 7 drivers form the ati site and even the dedicated bootcamp windows 7 64 bit drivers nad attempt to point the installer to them the error appears "This driver does not appear to work with this version of windows" so basically the old xp bootcamp fix doesnt work with windows 7 64 bit with bootcamp running. There has got to be an easy workaround or fix for this! Tons of windows 7 64 bit bootcamp users are experienceing this install error and without the driver being installed and updating the card to what it truly is and NOT THE MOBILITY VERSION THAT IS BEING DETECTED, we can all run games like before in xp with way better performace. until then we are all screwed and are forced to run the updated drivers for the mobility XT card. PLEASE PLEASE HELP US IF YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I AM SAYING. look around on the apple bootcamp forums and you will see a bunch of people complaining about the same thing with no solution for over 2 years. i have sent an email to AMD formerly ATI requesting assistance but i am sur ethey will just blow me off. this is a very easy problem that could be fixed by a tech savy person. WHoever can fix this problem at least for me personally,i will gladly sned you at least $100 via paypal for your hard work and time. without this being fixed i have no choice but to buy anothermac with a better graphics card since the imac i have is not upgradeable beyond RAM. Like i said this was the same problem with windows xp in bootcamp before i installed lion. the fix worked. i dont want to hear that the card is NOT a true hd 2600 PRO whn i know it is and have succesfully used the driver hack before with awesome results. it is NOT a mobility card whatsoever. it is an ATI RADEON  2600 HD with 256 megs of VRAM,not the best but still ok to run even the latest pc games with bootcamp. Please please help me! Thank you very much in adfvance for reading this!

    Below is what I had to do to work around this issue - I've been running with the modified graphics drivers for over a week now, including running some games under Windows 7. Apologies if this is too basic, but I figured I would write it out step-by-step for anyone who needed the background, rationale, plus instructions:
    Procedure to manually update iMac Radeon HD 2600 PRO video card under Windows 7 (64 bit).
    Rationale:
    > Boot Camp drivers incorrectly identify the video card my 24" iMac (24-inch Mid 2007 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo - the graphics card is shown as a "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 XT") - this has been a long-standing problem when using my iMac under Boot Camp. You can find procedures online about how to update the drivers manually by obtaining them from AMD then installing them.
    Background:
    > When I was previously running Windows XP, I was able to perform the graphics driver update per the online instructions, without any problems.
    > When I updated to Windows 7, 64-bit (because I updated my Mac OS to 10.7 [Lion] and Windows XP was no longer supported in Boot Camp), I could no longer update the graphic card drivers to the Win7 64-bit version (it was giving an error that the driver was not supported) using the same procedure.
    > The solution I finally came upon was to modify the INF file that comes with the drivers from AMD. I take no credit for this, except for the fact that I adapted a procedure I found for doing this for graphics cards in notebooks. The original place I found this is here <http://forum.notebookreview.com/gaming-software-graphics-cards/370695-guide-upda ting-your-ati-drivers-manually.html>.
    NOTE & DISCLAIMER: This is the first time I have done something like this, so I don't claim to fully understand every step that is going on here, nor if every step is needed. I based this on the procedure referenced in link immediately above and it seems to be working for me (that is, my graphics card driver was ultimately updated for Win7, 64-bit just like had been previously under WinXP) - YMMV.
    >> This procedure was done with the AMD Radeon™ Desktop Video Card Drivers for "64 bit Windows Vista/Windows 7 "; Version 11.7, posted 2011-07-27 (main page: http://support.amd.com/US/Pages/AMDSupportHub.aspx)
    1. Driver only was downloaded from AMD.
    2. Downloaded file was installed to default location: C:\ATI
    3. Gather info about the graphics card:
    3a. Open the Device Manager (Start>Computer [right-click]>Properties)
    3b. Expand the "Display Adapters" item to reveal the GPU (mine was listed as "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 XT", same as it was under XP)
    3c. Right-click on the GPU and select "Properties"
    3d. Click the "Details" tab in the Properties window.
    3e. Click the drop-down under "Property" (top item should say "Device description) - find the item in the list that says "Hardware Ids"
    >> There were four values for my card, shown below:
    PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_9583&SUBSYS_0083106B&REV_00
    PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_9583&SUBSYS_0083106B
    PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_9583&CC_030000
    PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_9583&CC_0300
    3f. Right click on the first value and select "Copy" - paste it into a separate document. I actually copied all these items and pasted them into a separate text document, but only ended up using the first one.
    3g. Go back and click the drop-down under "Property" - find the item in the list that says "Inf section" (it was far down the list).
    3h. Copy the value shown there and paste into a separate document; my value read: ati2mtag_M76
    4. Modify the INF file from AMD:
    4a. First thing I did was make a backup copy of the directory containing the files that were installed in step 2 (located at C:\ATI) - my directory was called "11-7_vista64_win7_64_dd".
    4b. Go into this path:  C:\ATI\Support\11-7_vista64_win7_64_dd\Packages\Drivers\Display\W76A_INF
    4c. Find the INF files (icon is a document with a gear on it), that start with "C7..." and "CH..." (mine were called "C7122569" & "CH122569").
    4d. Open the "C7..." file (it opens in Notepad). Go down to the section called "[ATI.Mfg.NTamd64.6.1]".
    4e. Do a "Find" command for "ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO" (if you search for a shorter phrase, be aware there are other "2600 PRO" cards in the list).
    >> The exact line I found was <"ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO" = ati2mtag_RV630, PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_9589>
    4f. Replace that line with the Inf section value and the first Hardware ID value, using the same format as the orginal line.
    >> The new entry I made read:
    "ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO" = ati2mtag_M76, PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_9583&SUBSYS_0083106B&REV_00
    4g. Close the file, saving your changes.
    4h. Repeat steps 4d - 4g, using the "CH..." file.
    5. Updating the graphics driver using the modified INF files:
    5a. Go back to the Device Manager and expand the "Display Adapters" item again to show the "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 XT" GPU
    5b. Right-click on the GPU and select "Update Driver Software..."
    5c. In the resulting window, choose "Browse my computer for driver software".
    5d. I navigated to the "C7..." file along the following path: <C:\ATI\Support\11-7_vista64_win7_64_dd\Packages\Drivers\Display\W76A_INF>
    5e. At this point, I was shown a window that showed "ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO" twice (that's all that was in the list). I selected the first instance and it moved on.
    5f. I got a warning that the driver was unsigned, obviously I allowed it to move forward with the installation.
    5g. The updating proceeded and the screen momentarily went black, twice. After the second time the description in the Device Manager changed to reflect that the GPU was now "ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO".
    FINAL NOTE: as of right now everything seems to be running properly and I have experienced no problems or graphical glitches. If anyone reading this sees an obvious problem with what I've done, please let me know.

  • Multi-Touch Trackpad in Windows 7 Pro x64

    Macbook Pro Unibody
    OSX 10.5.8 (Leopard)
    Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
    Bootcamp 2.1
    Trackpad Update 1.1
    Just upgraded my Boot Camp partition from Win XP x32 to Win 7 x64. Or rather, I did a clean install, not an upgrade. I'm running all of the above listed stuff. Muti-Touch isn't working on the tack pad, so I don't have RMB functionality and I'm really missing two finger scrolling.
    Also, looking in the Boot Camp Control Panel, I don't appear to have any trackpad options, even after installing the trackpad update. I just tried installing it again, and I get a message saying that it won't update my drivers for the tackpad because what I'm trying to install isn't better than what I already have. That's all well and good, but the pad still isn't working with multi-touch.
    Any helpful suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    I didn't do anything proactive to get it to work, just the things I mentioned above. Installed Boot Camp 2.1, installed the Trackpad 1.1 update, uninstalled Boot Camp 2.1, Installed Boot Camp 3.0. Side scrolling just started working.
    The only thing that's a tad finicky is multi-touch RMB. It works, more or less, but, for example, if I RMB on a bookmark in Firefox to access it's properties (let's say I want to rename it), I have to hold my two fingers down in the click position as as I move the cursor into the conext menu. Otherwise it will launch the bookmarked page. So you can't just two-finger-click on something to evoke a context menu, let go, then use one finger to navigate to the option you want, which is how I would expect it to work.

  • Multi-touch trackpad in Windows 7?

    Ok, so I know that there is not a driver for windows 7 yet with the trackpad. But Windows 7 is built upon Vista so the drivers should work with no problems. The only thing is that when I try to install the driver it tells me that "This update is not intended for this computer and will not be installed". Ok... I get that, but is there a way to decompress the .exe to extract the drivers? Then I could just use the add new hardware feature and install them manually. I am really getting tired of using two finger clicks to right click.

    This is exactly what i did, and its works for me ( tap click, 2 finger right click, 2 finger scroll )
    1. Down load this file:
    http://rapidshare.com/files/186372631/Archive.zip
    2. Manually install 2 files Applemultitouch, Appletrackpad
    3. Reboot.
    4. Update the "new mutitouch driver" as described in my original message.
    5. Reboot.
    6. Go to Control Panel, Boot Camp, customize the behavior of you touchpad
    (PS. FYI I did try the compatibility mode,as some one said, DID NOT WORK!) This message is written in my
    Boot camp 7, with the "new" 2-finger touchpad!

  • How to click on Multi-touch Trackpad

    Please excuse my ignorance, I have an early macbook with a button to click.
    I am trying to assist my brother with a project using his newer macbook with a multi-touch glass trackpad and I messed up the settings because I am not used to the touch to click. I unchecked that option in system preferences and now cannot click anything. Meaning, I am stuck on the system preferences page and cannot do anything because I do not know how to click without a "click" button.
    Please, if you can, get back to me ASAP.
    Thanks.

    Thanks Chris. I am in the process of getting a usb mouse to change back the preference as that is the only way I can get it back to working status, as per applecare. Thanks again bro.
