Keyboard with touch pad/track ball?

Hi all,
I am thinking about getting a Mac mini for my bedroom. I need a wireless keyboard with touch pad or trackball. Any suggestions?
Rgds TIA!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
The iPad does not work with track ball or touch pads or mice because there is no cursor to move around. Your finger tip is the cursor. Only thing that appears on the screen is a place marker where text will begin to be entered when you are in a text entry mode...but that is not movable by mouse or other pointing device.
If the keyboard meets the Bluetooth profile Apple has published for the iPad, that part should work.

  • External ergonomic keyboard with touch pad

    I'm a MacBook Pro user, and have an external ergonomic keyboard (at home).  It does not have a touch pad, but I'm looking for one that does.  Any suggestions?

    Per the Info here:

    the Magic Trackpad requires Mac OS 10.6.4 or higher and your equipment line says you are at 10.4.9. You'd need to upgrade your OS. Any MacBook Pro can run OS 10.6.

  • Keyboard and Touch-Pad Not Working After Having to Install New Hard Drive

    I had to install a new hard drive in my HP Pavillion DV9700t that has Vista Home Premium 64-bit.  After going through the recovery process with backup disk the built in keyboard and touch-pad do not work.  During the installation, an error message came up saying something along the lines of "the drivers are not supported by this verison of windows because they are unsigned."  The drivers that had that error were "hpqkbfiltr keyboard filter driver," "HP remote control HID Device," and "hpqkdfilter driver."  I tried to update the drivers for the keyboard from the hp website, but the keyboard and touch-pad still do not work.
    My question is, where do I find the digitally signed drivers for the keyboard and touch-pad that Vista won't flag and disable?
    Help please!

    Sparkles,
    Thanks for the suggestions.
    When dealing with MS Fix It, I was choosing run.  Upon further investigation on that site, there really isn't a scan that applies to my issue anyways I tried the .NET Framework repair tool, and that seemed to work.  It told me to try re-running what I was having issues with, so I tried running the Windows PowerShell again, but again was faced with the following message "windows update standalone installer encountered an error: 0xc8000247." I went back to the .NET screen and hit "Next" because it didn't work, and that responded by saying they were going to submit logs to Microsoft.  I won't hold my breath on that one.
    I'm to the point where I honestly don't care anymore.  I have no idea what to do, because doing a clean install with the discs HP sent me isn't going to help because they are just recovery discs, and not an actual Windows disk.  This is the second hard drive I have had to put into my laptop and use those recovery disks on in the last 3-years.  The built-in keyboard hasn't worked during that time frame on either hard drive.  I don't think the recovery disks I was sent install properly.  Not sure where to go from here.  I spent way too much money on this laptop years ago having it custom built to handle all of my drafting programs, so I don't want to just kick it to the curb.  I was looking into the possibility of just replacing it, but I cannot stand the Windows 8 interface.
    I guess I should have fixed the issue with the keyboard on this hard drive before loading all of my programs.  Between the recovery disk install, formatting of the hard drive, and installing all of my programs it took well over 12 hours.  Not really looking forward ot that again Then there's shockwave and flash and all of the other goodies that my recovery disks won't restore anyways.
    Sorry if this seems like a negative post, but I'm just tired of trying to no avail.  Maybe I should just take it somewhere to get it looked at, but I can't see them being successful if the recovery disks won't help anyways.
    Thanks for you help,

  • Dynabook C7 - Need part number for keyboard and touch pad

    Hi there!
    I have a few questions about my toshiba dynabook C7 laptop.
    I want to change my old keyboard and touch pad as they do not work properly. The problem is that i can't find those parts because this model was delivered only for Japan market. So maybe somebody knows number of the models of those parts that might be suitable for my laptop? Or name of the laptop that is similar to my dynabook c7. The full model name is TOSHIBA DYNABOOK C7/212CMEN portege 4101 series
    Thx in advance.
    Cheers!

    Hmmm... it can be pretty complicated. As you probably know it is not easy to get any info about those specific for Japan produced notebooks. I am pretty familiar with Toshiba notebook models and your notebook can be the same as Portege A100.
    Google a little bit around and try to find info about Portege A100. I believe this notebook was offered in UK only.
    Check also in Google - P000398500 G83C0001Q710 for Portege A100 series, Uk United kingdom keyboard.

  • Conflictin​g device error for keyboard and touch pad on thinkpad laptop

    Hello,

    They do work in BIOS.

    tried uninstalling them, that didn't work either.
    can't change auto configuration...it is grayed out.
    Please help.
    What can I do?

    This is really strange I must say...
    But you say you are using the same drivers for both 32-bit and 64-bit, this shouldn't affect the PE-part, but make sure you are using the correct drivers 64-bit for x64 OS and 32-bit for x86 :)
    If you make a bootable memmory stick from the 32-bit deployment share, does it work then or is it the same problem?
    Could it be as easy that the deployment share isn't updated?

    I also said that nothing's missing so, I thought it implies that only correct drivers are there.
    I filter out all unwanted versions from both deployment shares to save on disk space.
    Deployment Share have been refreshed several times with refreshing PE images too.
    Mem-stick for 32-bit version works fine - keyboard and touch-pad work in it.

  • Cannot load the recovery media since my keyboard and touch pad do not work

    My labtop Toshiba C55D-A5392 may have a virus issue which cause the keyboard and touch pad do not function.  initially only a few keys don't work...after a couple days most keys don't work and now no keys are working and the touch pad failed too. I can't even load up windows now.   I bought a recovery media from toshiba and try to reset the laptop to factory settings.  I received the USB drive media from Toshiba, but I cannot load it since I cannot get the laptop into the bios (since my keyboard does not work).  Can anyone help me to resolve this issue?

  • Keyboard and Touch Pad are Dead!

    Today the keyboard and touch pad died on my MacBook Pro. Both were working fine earlier this morning, but suddenly stopped working this evening. Not only that, but now OS-X takes a very long time to boot and shut down as well as Windows Vista on my bootcamp partition. Also, the cooling fan spins at full speed during boot-up and stays at full speed when the login screen appears. It never did this before.
    I connected a USB keyboard and mouse to my computer, and they worked fine. I have tried the SMC reset, but the problem still persists. I have tried safe boot, but it doesn't work. Is this a case of corrupted files or something more sinister?
    UPDATE
    I noticed that I no longer have a sound device. When I opened Sound, there was no device listed at all. Also, the fan is running at full speed when the CPU load is minimal (98%-100% free). Think I'm gonna need some Crown and Coke after tonight.

    I took your advice and went to the Apple Store in Ginza, Tokyo. I was so surprised at how easy they made the entire process! I will have my MacBook Pro repaired at no cost, because it is still under warranty. A lot of companies could learn from Apple's customer support model! Finally, you should see the fancy Star Trek-like elevator!!! Unbelievable visit today!!! Thanks Apple!

  • Non-responsive keyboard and touch pad

    I have a dv7-3065dx Entertainment Notebook.  After the computer starts up and reaches the windows login screen, the keyboard and touch pad are non-responsive. The curser is blinking in the space to type the password, but I cannot type anything. Does anyone know what is wrong and how to fix it?

    Hi,
    Can you access Windows Recovery Console by tapping away at f8 as you start the notebook?

  • My Hp Pavllion dv7 keyboard and touch pad will not work

    Hi. My Hp Pavllion dv7 keyboard and touch pad will not work. Been going on for a few months now. Read in the support forum that replacing the battery might help however it hasnt. Ran updates for Windows Vista and Microsoft Security Ess. Boots up just fine however unable to place in my password to get to my user profile and always have to work from guest......unless I have a USB keyboard handly at the time. I use a USB wireless mouse as well.
    Please help and thank you

    The keyboard and mouse (touchpad) are separate devices which could go bad at the same time but that would be a huge coincidence. I would try reseating the ribbon cables to the motherboard for both. Here is the Service Manual:
