Laptop touchpad, arrow not responding

My mousepad/arrow pointer do not work unless I am safe mode. When I do a regular boot, I am able to point the arrow, but the program will not respond. I have no way of doing anything unless I am in safe mode.

Hi Kokorokas,

As per the query we understood that you are facing issue with touchpad not responding in your Lenovo U530 laptop.
Connect an external mouse and check for the issue, also try to boot the system in safe mode and check for the issue.
Try to check in different applications and also try to uninstall the drivers and restart the system and check for the issue.
Hope this helps. Do post back if issue persists!

U530 Touchpad is not responding

My touchpad started not responding this weekend, and I can't figured out what happened. I know you can press Fn+F6 to disable and enable it but that key never worked in the first place. I tried it again today but my touchpad is still not responding. Is there anything else I can do?
Solved!

Hp 430 laptop touchpad is not working afternet connecting rj-45 cable

hp 430 laptop touchpad is not working after connecting rj-45 cable, Please help me.

Hello 9560030067, and welcome to the HP Forums.
I see you are having issues getting your printer to be recognized. I would be happy to help you with that!
First, I would suggest disconnecting the USB cable, and Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Once it is uninstalled, reinstall the software. Be sure not to plug the USB cable back in until the software prompts you to connect it. Also, when plugging the USB back in, I would suggest plugging it into a USB 2.0 port, not a 3.0 port.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

Keyboard and touchpad do not respond temporarily

Hi all!
While working on my Macbook Pro mid 2010 (Mountain Lion) the keyboard and touchpad sometimes don't repond. Everything else on the Macbook seems to work as usual, e. g. the power button works and I can see how the logfiles are updated on the console. Currently this problem occures about one time a week
When I close the lid, the Macbook goes to sleep and when I open the lid again, keyboard and mouse work as before.
In the logfiles the only that sounds to coorespond to the problem is:
AppleUSBMultitouchDriver::validateChecksum - 512-byte packet checksum is incorrect
But the time when it occures doesn't correspond to the time when keyboard and touchpad stop responding.
SMC and PRAM reset did not solve the problem. Maybe I have to mention that the logicboard was replaced 2 month ago and can't remember that htis problem accured before.
Any help is appreciated.

Ok. First of all, you really gotta be more patient. We don't get paid to do this, and a lot of people look around here for answers or try to help and don't know the answer, so that is where all of those views came from.
See if any of these links help:

Has anybody else been seeing (Not Responding) at the top of the screen and having thier browser not respond to wheel scrolling and scrolling with the usual slider at the right part of the screen?

I have noticed my Firefox browser is having way too many incidences where it is "Not Responding". The browser freezes up for a second quite often and the "Not Responding" message will appear at the top of the screen.
The browser will also not scroll with either the scroll bar on the right nor with the mouse wheel. Both used to work in previous versions of Firefox, but it seems to have gotten worse since Firefox 5 0r 6. The same with the "Not Responding". It is happening more with Firefox 7 than in at least the past two versions.
Anybody else having these issues? Seems like they are hand-in-hand. Thanks for any and all help or advice. It's making me pretty angry since I'm online all day for work.
Just an FYI. At the bottom of my troubleshooting copy/paste is a suggestion to update the driver for my graphics. That was a no-go. I tried that.

Thank you for this first reply! I'll have to give this a try later....the main laptop I experience this on crashed not more than an hour after I posted this issue. I'm on a tiny, slow netbook that hasn't had the same problem. Now I'm wondering if I picked up a Trojan on the main laptop and the "Not Responding" message is a side effect of a virus or Trojan.
One of the system .dll files has been corrupted and I'm not being allowed to use recovery discs, previous disc images, or any recovery options. That was an all day sucker yesterday and from what I've read on forums and have researched, it appears I'm going to need to reload the operating system. If it is indeed a Trojan/virus, I'm surprised it made it through my antivirus and firewall. Anything is possible, really.
Thanks again, I'll get back with results once I get the wounded laptop back up and running.

Portege M400 Fn Keys not responding

My function keys on my laptop are suddenly not responding.
I've never had a problem with them prior to this, but I'm not sure how to fix them at this point.
When I hit the function key by itself, the green light beneath F11 still responds, but that's really the extent of the activity.
I've had the laptop for almost a year, and I'm running an XP OS.
Any comments or suggestions are much appreciated.
Thank you!

Hi again ;)
I mean the Common Modules is a Toshiba driver which is necessary and important for the FN button usage.
You can find it on the Toshiba driver page:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com -> Support & Download -> Download Drivers
There you have to choose your notebook series, OS and then you could download it.
Then unzip the package and reinstall it on your notebook.
Hope this helps

Hmmm, Norton extensions are broken again in Firefox 4.0.1. It seems that Norton didn't allow for Firefox 4.0 security updates when they updated their Firefox extension for Firefox 4.0. Norton says they'll have a fix in two weeks. A Norton user posted a fix in this forum thread.

I just updated itunes to 11.1.3 on my laptop and now it won't open. It does not respond to trying "safe mode" either. Anyone have an idea as to what to do?

I just uninstalled it and am waiting for it to reinstall. I sincerely hope that I have not lost everything that I worked on so hard. Now that mobile me is gone, I have not been able to go between devices to transfer things. I was merely trying to take a document I had worked on and open it in pages, but it said my version was too old. When I updated, it wouldn't load. Now I cannot do anything. I hope that the reinstall fixes it without losing everything. Please advise!!! Yes, I am in panic mode.

Is it a damaged keyboard ?
The laptop is just 2 months old, will Apple replace it with a new one if its indeed a damaged keyboard or just repair, I use it for official purposes so being without a laptop is not much of an option.

No one here works for Apple, so we don't know what Apple might or might not do. If it's a genuine defect, they will of course repair it under warranty. It is not their responsibility if it effects your ability to work or not, so that's on you.
If, however, they determine that the key is problematic as a result of your misuse of the laptop, then everything is on you. And trust me, if they find a glob of dried up beer or coffee there, they will charge you.
Your only choice is to take it in for repair.

I attempted to update to the latest IOS version. Then it seemed to "Lock UP". Now all i get on display is a graphic of the power cord with an arrow pointing to an iTunes icon. Home button is not responding.

I attempted to update to latest version of IOS. Now all I get on the display is a graphic of the power cord with an arrow pointing to an iTunes icon. Ipad does not seem to power down or power up correctly. Home button is not responding.

I am new to this, could you provide me with a little more detail on how to do this? Thanks so much!

I have a Windows Vista desktop and an old XP laptop, both run Firefox perfectly. However, my Toshiba Satellite T135 laptop will not run ANY version of Firefox--constant "not responding" messages. Chrome and IE9 work perfectly. Help!!

To mostly repeat my question, I am a longtime Firefox user on both an XP laptop and a Vista desktop. So here I get the most "capable" computer of all, a Toshiba Satellite T135 laptop, 64-bit Windows 7, 4G RAM...and it won't run Firefox at all! I have installed an uninstalled both Firefox 3, and just now, Firefox 4. No changes. When I open the software, it usually just locks up for a minute or so, and I finally get a "not responding" message at the top of the screen.
Obviously there is something corrupt in the guts of my laptop. But both IE9 and Chrome work very well--Chrome is blazing fast. I still prefer Firefox because it works best with some particular software I use for work...but I have to go to one of my older computers to do it!
ANY solutions out there? This seems like a very odd problem.
Posting from the Firefox website...using Google Chrome!

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

Touchpad touchscreen problems (erratic behavior/not responding correctly/etc) temporary solution.

I bought a HP Touchpad about a month or two after it came out. It worked pretty much as you'd expect it to until some time ago. I started getting a problem where the screen would go crazy and not respond correctly to my touch inputs. Web pages would jump all over the place, cards would zoom out, etc, in other words, they would behave erratically. After some testing I noticed that certain areas of the touchscreen would NOT respond at all to inputs while others would make the screen go crazy like I mentioned previously. I looked for information on the web to see if other people where having the same problem and found reports of the same behavior. Unfortunately there where no solutions offered. At that point I tried turning on and off the Touchpad which did not resolve the problem. My next step was to try to reinstall the OS with WebOS Doctor, but I read a post where the user reported similar behavior and reinstalling with WebOS Doctor didn't fix the problem. Needless to say I was bummed out since I figured it was a hardware problem with the touchscreen. After more testing I found a temporary solution to the problem which seems to suggest that the probem could be software. The solution when you get the problem is to hold down the power button and the home button at the same time and keep them pressed until the screen shuts down and the touchpad restarts. Once the OS comes back up it works like it is supposed to until you get the next episode of screen epilepsy. At that point you need to do the procedure again and it will fix the problem temporarily. Usually the fix lasts for a few days in my case. The fix also solves other problems I have with the touchpad. Problems like, videos not playing fluidly or freezing every few seconds although the sound plays fine (youtube), sound gets messed up (sounds are played in a robot like pitch), and others. If anybody has questions or other suggestions let me know, I will answer the as best as I can.

I think the YouTube and sound problems are separate from the other erratic behaviour. Recently my touchpad won't play YouTube videos beyond certain points, starting a few seconds in possibly due to the advertising pop-ups - I can skip forwards, but that means I miss crucial parts. My sound also goes 'robot-like' until a reboot, which is incredibly annoying! Your touchscreen problems may be specific to your device - try going to Device Info / Diagnostics and see if that tells you anything.
