Issue with MacBook Pro trackpad and Adobe Lightroom 5

I'm using Lightroom 5 on a MacBook Pro (mid 2012).  Whenever I'm in the development tab I am unable to click on anything within the center third of the screen.  If I want to get to the 5th or 6th photo in the bottom pan, I have to use my mouse.  I am able to click on things only on the left and right sides of the screen for some reason.
This only happens in Lightroom.  Any ideas?

Thanks for the quick reply.
Lightroom 5.7.1
OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)
I'm not using an external display.  If it matters my MacBook is a 13".
As an example of what I mean, look at the image below.  Everything highlighted in green I'm able to click.  After I'm in develop for more than a few minutes, I'm suddenly not able to right click or left click on anything.  The typical "mouseover" changes don't happen either, such as the subtly highlighting that happens when you mouse over an image in the bottom pain.  As if Lightroom isn't detecting the mouse there at all.

  • Hard core lefty has major issues with MacBook pro trackpad

    I'm a really hardcore lefthanded person. Like everyone I've been getting all the hype about the Magic Trackpad, which is just a standalone version of the trackpad on my MacBook, on the iPhone, iTouch, etc. I touchpad mouse with my left hand.
    When I got the machine, I turned OFF all the bells and whistles swipes, etc. of the touchpad except the right click option because all it did was ruin my productivity. I could find nowhere to reverse the strokes to accommodate lefthanded use. Am:
    1)I'm dim and don't know where to look for the change or what magic words to enter into the computer help.
    2)It's not possible.
    3)Apple doesn't care about creative lefty types anymore.
    I hope someone at Apple is listening, because as a 20+ year PC user, (touchpads for 10 years) I absolutely love everything else about the MacBook Pro...
    HELP!

    Take a look at Better Touch Tool - VersionTracker or MacUpdate - which enables you to make customizable gestures.
    Being a rightie I'm not sure I quite understand the issue. The 'right-click' function can be set to either the right or left corner. The other gestures don't seem to have any sort of 'handed' peculiarities, but then I've never tried them with my left hand.

  • Sound Issues with macbook pro 13" and external display

    Hey guys I have a 13" macbook pro from mid 2012 with 8 gb ram and the i7 processor. About a year ago I bought a thunderbolt to hdmi adapter and hdmi cable to use my 32 in tv as a monitor. It worked flawlessly and I never experienced the flickering issue people have been talking about. The tv is only 720p so the picture wasn't as clear as it should be. I was also tired of using a pullout desk and thought the 32 in was a little too big so a couple weeks ago I added an entire desk setup in the corner and bought a brand new 24 in Vizio E241i--a1 and mounted it on the wall as a monitor. This tv is the full 1080p. Ever since then, I have had trouble with the sound playing from the macbook>displayport-hdmi adapter>hdmi cable>monitor. I select the monitor as the output device and sometimes it will actually play and sometimes it will not. I mostly use the macbook in clamshell mode when at my desk but sometimes I have both screens on. No matter what if the sound has stopped working it will not go back. If I select the macbook speakers as the output then it will play through the macbook speakers. But once I switch back to the hdmi output for sound it still will not work. The only thing I can do to fix it is to leave the macbook in clamshell mode and then restart it causing the monitor to be the main display at boot up. Once I got the new tv, I also started experiencing the flickering issue people have been talking about with the external monitor. I know it is not because of Mountain Lion because I had Mountain Lion when I used my old setup and never experienced either of these problems. Any ideas on what could be going on? Thanks in advance

    Did you format the external drive for use with OS X?
    Open Disk Utility. Does Disk utility see the connected drive?
    Format it to "Mac OS Extended (Journaled).

  • Issues with Macbook Pro Trackpad

    I have a 15" Macbook Pro i5 2.4 Ghz, 4GB ram, 500 GB HD (Early 2010) Running Snow Leopard. My trackpad will begin moving on it's own at random. It also decides to right click on it's own at times. It's totally random though, at times it happens frequently, the next day it may not happen at all. Any about what causes this? And how I can fix it?

  • Macbook Pro Retina and Adobe cs6

    HI!
    I'm pretty much ready to buy a Macbook Pro Retina and buy the adobe cs cloud too. I know Photoshop is to be updated to Retina, but I've not heard anything regarding Illustrator and After Effects.
    My questiom is this: Does anyone know how non Retina compatible software, specifically cs6 or cs5 looks? I've read Engadget's review, which is very positive. However, they say non compatible programs look bad - blurry text etc.
    Had anyone managed to get one yet, and whats your view with Adobes apps?
    Everything else sounds ace (apart from the waiting times)!
    Many thanks!

    I've been reading the reviews etc, and looked at the Adobe forums, but I've not found that much main info.
    Basically from all the reviews I have read, everyone thinks it's an excellent machine, and the Retina is great. Adobe's UI in CS6 apparently looks a bit blurry, but hopefully Adobe will fix this, and it's perfectly usable anyway.
    Check out the Verge's review: http://www.theverge.com/2012/6/13/3082649/macbook-pro-review-retina-display-15-i nch
    I've decided just to go for it, and ordered a Macbook Pro Retina, 2.3ghz with the extra 16gb Ram. My usual setup at my studio at work (I'm a freelance Illustrator and animator) is hooking my current 2009 MBP to my 20" Cinema Display.
    Since I walk to work the slimmer design will be great, and if Adobe's programs are a bit dodgy on the retina display, it won't matter too much when I'm using my Cinema Display. It might make my display look old, but I'll probably upgrade that and get a 27" display in the future.
    The retina display will be a nice addition for surfing the web etc.
    Now if only Apple would release a non glassy cinema display again... Apple? : )
    I hope that helps from my point of view.

  • Blue tooth issues with macbook pro late 2011

    I purchased the new beats pill and havinng issues with connectivity with macbook pro. My Iphone works well. Any suggestions

    I have a similar issue.  Have you had any luck with a fix, yet?  I have a Samsung sound bar, and my Ipad and Iphone both connect with no issues. The playback is uninterrupted with fine sound quality.  My 2011 13" Macbook Pro connects, however playback often sounds like a scratched CD.  Last year I called both, Samsung and Apple, and when all was said and done it was recommended that I bring the then brand new sound bar and my Macbook to an Apple Store.  Any suggestions I are appreciated.

  • Front Row issues with MacBook Pro?

    I just bought my MacBook Pro today and transferred all my files from my old Mac via firewire. I run Front Row, and it says "an error has occurred" every time i try and play any playlist OTHER than the playlists of stuff bought from iTunes... any ideas?
    Also --- how do I NOT make it shuffle?
    Thanks!

    ohhhh
    No, actually, I leave my folders somewhere else. That must be why, because my downloads ARE there!
    Another question then...if you guys know...I reinstalled Entourage, and I'm now told that I can't access that identity with this version of Entourage!
    Thanks, you guys are awesome.

  • Issue with Macbook Pro 2011

    Hi there. I have a brand new MacBook Pro 2011 and I'm having some problems with my wireless connection. I have in the same room a Mac Mini, my Ipad , my Ipod, 3 PC's and all of them have a wireless connection. I notice that since my last MacOSX update I have some problems with my wireless connectivity in my Macmini. Now I'm having the same problem in my macbook pro. I have internet in all my other devices but no internet in my Mac Mini or Macbook. The Access point is 5 meters away from my devices. I put some repeater in the middle to repeat the signal but I'm getting the same beavior. Can someone help me on this? If I go to the network setting and renew my DHCP address I can access the internet but after 15 minutes I'm getting the same problem again.

    The signal bar on the menubar is not always an accurate indicator of how strong the signal is.  A more accurate measure is if the signal drops entirely and you are definitely in range of the airport base station.  Also anywhere within 3 meters you may get signal degradation because of overlapping radio waves cancelling each other out.  You also have the option to ask to speak to a customer relations person when you call AppleCare, and ask for an expedited repair, and have your airport card properly seated.  Sometimes they can get loose, or the antenna can get loose inside, though normally this isn't a problem unless the machine has to be opened for some reason.

  • Is there a faulty hard drive issue with MacBook Pros recently? (I say recent, mine was bought about a year ago)

    The reason I am wondering is because previously my MacBook Pro crashed and failed to load past the white screen with the logo and a spinning disk.
    So after googling the problem, fiddling about in recovery mode (which is pointless given I know next to nothing about computers), I went to an Apple Dealer
    and they very kindly re-installed OS X Lion for me, because the hard drive had decided to play up.
    Now, I am again facing problems with my hard drive, after both Safari and iTunes crashed. After this Safari refused to open and I restarted several times before a loading bar appeared at the white logo w. spinning disk screen, and after the loading bar filled my mac finally managed to open Safari, albeit minus the close tab 'x', only now, it is also claiming there isn't enough memory to open iTunes (there is, almost 7 GB of free RAM) and after installing ClamXav and Sophos and finidng no viruses, I ran Disk Utility which informed me after I had verified the disk that I need to run in recovery mode using another disk (which, I don't have. My family has another mac running Snow Leopard and I have no disk for OS X Lion... or would an external hard drive do?) and that I need to repair the disk using Disk Utility.
    Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated
    Additionally, a program that I have called Sibelius also plays up at around about the same time that the disk keeps crashing. Could this be the cause...?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    As far as I know, I haven't noticed any problem with the Mid 2012 MacBook Pro about their hard disks. All hard disks fail with their use, but it looks like the hard disks you had on your Mac were defective (at least, the last one). If the hard disk was replaced recently, you should be able to take it and they should repair it for free, or at least, that's what Apple does on Apple Stores

  • USB-3 card reader that is compatible with MacBook Pro (Retina) and Mountain Lion

    Can anybody recommend a USB-3 based CompactFlash memory card reader that works with the MacBook Pro (Retina) and Mountain Lion (or, at least, Lion)?
    Thanks in advance...

    Thanks for your reply, Clinton. But I already have two readers that are USB-2 compatible. Now I need the one like I described above. I am using only the fastest CF cards available.
    I have read some user reports (on Amazon) on two readers relevant to my needs - SanDisk and Lexar - but I'm still not sure whether they are fully compatible with the Retina MacBook and Mountain Lion. As a matter of fact, I doubt it...

  • Issue with MacBook Pro Display

    My buddy has a 13" Macbook Pro unibody and recently whenever he puts it to sleep and then goes to open the screen again the backlight for the keyboard comes on but the display does not show up. In order to fix it he has to close the lid and then open it again and the display then shows up. Any ideas on why this is happening?

    You should put this question on the MacBook Pro forum. This is a forum for a specific model of MacBook so there is a good chance that somebody who can answer will never see it.
