So, I've seemed to solve this problem, in the interm at least.
1) Open disk utility
2) Select your HDD
3) Click "Verify Disk Permissions"
4) Click "Repair Disk Permissions" (assuming there was an issue)
5) Once complete, restart your mac
These steps worked for myself, and I've been messing around with both chrome and safari and the two finger scroll hasn't broken yet.

Having issues with two-finger swipe and hot corners. Help!

I've lately been having an issue, where my two finger swipe will stop working. I also notice that 3 of my 4 hot corners no longer work, either. The only one that works is the top left. When I restart my computer, or change users, etc, it's fixed for a while, but then the problem will start up again in about an hour.
I've tried the Software Update, and it seems everything is up to date. Any solutions?? I spent a good deal of money on this iMac, and I'm concerned there's something wrong with it.
I have a 27" iMac, which I bought around November 2011. Software is OSX 10.7.5
Thanks!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Two-finger swipe in Safari makes site unresponsive

Hi,
I am having trouble with two-finger swipe.
If I swipe back or forward while browsing, all navigation on the site stops working. With mousover links show up, but nothing happens when clicked. Scrolling up and down altso stops.
Using the back and forward navigation do not have this affect.
I'm running Safari 5.1.1 on OS X 10.7.2 on a MacBook Air.
Does anyone know a fix for this trouble?
Regards,
SDS

There are reports that this problem can be solved by simply restarting, or by resetting the PRAM.

Magic Mouse two finger swipe (forward/back) not working with Opera 10.

Magic Mouse left and right two finger swipe (forward and back) works great with Safari, Firefox, and Camino.
I enjoy using Opera 10 and noticed that the two finger swipe does not function with Opera. Any ideas on why or what adjustments I can make to get it to work?

No workaround so far with this problem and also no posts in the Opera forums. Just have to wait until Opera includes this functionality in their next release.
In the meantime you can help by joining the forum (takes a minute) and posting your concern. The more people that join and voice their complaint the faster something will get coded into their browser.

Magic Mouse - Two Finger Swipe not working in Finder + iTunes

Hello,
since OSX 10.8 I realized that in Finder & iTunes the backward/forward navigation has stopped working with Magic Mouse (two-finger-swipe gesture).
I have already read a lot of forums as well as apple-discussions and didn't find a solution apart from MagicPrefs or any other 3rd-party-app.
Is that a bug or just not meant to work? Does anybody know why Apple stopped providing this - very useful - gesture?
Thank you for your time and have a perfect day
Sascha

Pual_31 suggested good advise...
I would also recommend if that does not work, to reboot and run "repair permissions" from Disk Utilities.
Also might suggest downloading and trying MagicPrefs, it's a free program for the Magic Mouse and it really works great. May help with your problem, may not but I'd give it a try.

Swap magic mouse one finger swipe with two fingers swipe

Hello, I am wondering if it is possible to do next thing with magic mouse:
I want use two finger swipe gesture for back and forward while browsing.
And I want to disable one finger swipe (because I am activating it too often occasionally).
Is it possible to customize gestures setup this way?
Thanks

UPDATE: Apple Care suggested a *power reset*. Turn system off, disconnect all cables, wait 30 seconds - 45 seconds, reconnect and power up. Before powering down I went to System Preferences, Internet & Wireless, Bluetooth, highlighted the Apple Wireless Mouse, clicked "-" below the chart, and clicked "YES" to the disconnect question. Then I moved the 2) PLIST files again mentioned in the earlier email to Trash. (User name - Library - Preferences - com.apple.driver.AppleBluetoothMultitouch.mouse.plist & com.apple.driver.AppleHIDMouse.plist). At that time, I did the Power Reset mentioned above.
Connected the MM to Mac Book Air as a test to determine whether it is a mouse or driver problem. The mouse worked perfectly on the MBA. I then unpaired it.
Reconnected and powered up the Mac Pro, and +the 2 finger swipe works again!+

Two finger swipe in launchpad buggy

My issue is within the luanchpad window. I can access launchpad just fine when I use the five finger pinch gesture. The problem arrises when I am in the launchpad window and all of my apps are showing. I perform the two finger swipe gesture to switch to the next page of apps and periodically the swipe will "hang", for lack of a better term, between the two pages. I have to swipe one more timeto get the next page to show properly. I am new to Apple products and not sure if this is a Mavericks issue or a trackpad issue. I am running a trackpad with a mac mini (late 2012 model).

It is a bug. Just try to use 3 finger swipe in launchpad, not two, untill apple will do somthing with it)

Two finger swipe was working for Firefox 7 in my macbook pro running lion yesterday but not today. i have installed Alfred. Has that broken it?

I was able to use the two finger swipe gesture on my macbook pro trackpad in firefox 7. It was working fine but has just stopped working. It does work if I hold the alt key while swiping but that seems a bit pointless. The only thing I have changed on my mac is that I installed Alfred. Has that broken the gesture?

Sorry to tell you this but it's starting to sound like a hardware issue.
Reason being is because youi've had this issue when you had 2GB of RAM, and running Leopard to Snow Leopard then to Lion.
Even after you've reinstalled everything it was still giving you issues.
Ok, try this one. Open the back of your MB, take one RAM out of the top slot, then turn your MB on and see if it still freezes. If it does, then take the lower RAM off the botton slot and install it on the top slot. Turn it back on. If the problem stops, then it could be your RAM slots.

Two-finger swipe

Two finger swipe on trackpad with control key works fine for zooming screen, but it does not remain in force -- something turns it off, & I have to log out and back in to get it to work again. 10.7, 2.8GHz Intel Core i7, 8GB RAM.

HI,
Go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.driver.AppleHIDMouse.plist to the Trash.
Restart your iMac.
The update may have corrupted the Mouse preferences is all.
If that didn't help, you can re "pair" the mosue with your iMac.
Open System Preferences/Bluetooth
Make sure the mouse is turned on. Select your mouse on the left then click the - button.
Then click the + which will prompt the Bluetooth Setup Assistant and you can re "pair" the mouse.
Hopefully that will help the "two finger swipe" issue.

Magic Mouse -- two finger swipe problem

I have the wireless mouse. Twice now, I have had to unplug my iMac to get the mouse to work with the two fingered swipe. Anybody else experiencing this inability to perform the two finger swipe?
Cheers,

Per your system info: +"iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.6.2)"+
G5 iMacs cannot run Snow Leopard. Only Intel Macs can. Therefore, you actually have an Intel iMac. Please correct your system info so that you will get the correct troubleshooting suggestions.

Also, since you are having wireless mouse problems you will get more responses from the folks that use them by posting in the Bluetooth Keyboard/Mouse Forums.

Magic Mouse Two Finger Swipe

I've had a magic mouse for quite awhile but there's one thing that has never worked correctly: two finger swipe.
When trying to use the gesture to navigate through web history or pictures, it will only work going backward (left swipe). When I swipe to the right, the active window is hidden. I'm very baffled and hoping there is a fix as I would really like to use this feature. Thanks!

No workaround so far with this problem and also no posts in the Opera forums. Just have to wait until Opera includes this functionality in their next release.

Two finger swipe has gone wrong.

I was messing with the two finger swipe in safari where you swipe back and forth for the forward page and backward page with the cool animation. Everything was fine until i found out that this can not be done in Google Chrome or Firefox. So I decided to switch to the three finger swipe and sure enough, the back and forth in those browsers worked like a charm. I was showing off to a buddy and went back to the two finger swipe to show him the animation and how cool and easy it was and the weirdest thing happened. The page would swipe about a quarter of the way and than bounce back. I tried more gesture settings and nothing. I quit safari and rebooted and nothing. I have set every defualt setting and nothing. Is there anyone that would know whats going on? Thanks

More info - I noticed that when I use quite a bit of velocity to swipe, meaning that I start literally on one end of the keyboard and swipe across the trackpad and well onto the other side of the keyboard, then the pages will in fact move as they're supposed to (forward or backward). Thing is this is in no way supposed to be normal behavior. It's like there's a speed caliper on the feature that's set way too insensitive. Now I'm wondering if this is actually a setting in preferences that somehow got out of whack. The only setting I can find though has to do with the speed of the arrow pointer, not with the sensitivity of the two-finger swipe to activate.

Problem with two finger scrolling on s440

Hello everyone
I have a S440 (touch version) and some Problems with two finger scrolling on the touchpad.
First, it isn't smooth, i.e.. If I move my fingers it only starts scrolling after a second or so, basically when I've already stopped (unless I move very slow). It then makes up for the lost time by scrolling very fast.
The more serious problem (that makes it practically unusable) is that it randomly jumps back up, often to the top of the page/document, sometimes just a page or so.
The problems are worst with firefox and acrobat, with IE and the Microsoft reader there's no response time problem but the jumping upwards still occurs.
The problem is there with the preinstalled Windows 8 as well as my own Windows 8 Pro (with the original Lenovo drivers). Scrolling with the Trackpoint and an external mouse work fine, as well as scrolling via the touchscreen.
Does anyone have any suggestion if/how I can fix this?

I also have a S440 (non-touch screen), the scrolling on the touchpad worked perfectly when I bought it, no jumping, and scrolling perfectly smoothly comparable to an Mac. But after an upgrade to windows 8.1 which broke many things ( despite upgrading all drivers), I reset my thinkpad which brought it back to windows 8, everything working normally again except the two finger scrolling which is no longer smooth (moves incrementally now), and likes to jump randomly up or down the page, (not always, but enough to make it irritating. I notice this mostly with google chrome and adobe reader as these are the apps I use most frequently.
So my questions is what drivers or settings do I need to bring the scrolling back to the configuration it was when I purchased my S440? My device manager says I'm running thinkpad ultranav with Synaptics driver version 16.6.4.38
Cheers,
Paul

HT6065 Anyone have an idea of when a two-finger swipe bug fix is coming? I see no mention of the error in this update's summary. : /

Still having mucho trackpad/magic mouse issues with two finger swiping/scrolling. Best short-term fix I've found is tapping the power button and then waking my MBP back up again. It usually fixes the trackpad/magic mouse freeze on two-finger gestures temporarily. Anyone know if Apple's made any mention of a fix for this headed our way?

It's hard to tell if there's a rhyme or reason as to when or why it wigs out, but I've noticed that since my Mavericks install, sometimes two finger scrolling or swiping will suddenly be completely non-responsive, and it just won't work at all. I mostly use two finger gestures in Safari, so for me, it's been most noticable for scrolling vertically or flicking back or forward during web browsing.
It's not limited to Safari, the problem also affects Chrome and Firefox usability, as well.
links: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=927702
http://ansonalex.com/videos/trackpad-scroll-working-chrome-firefox-mac-os-x-mave ricks-video/
It seems to impede trackpad & magic mouse use equally, and while it's not a constant issue, I'd say it'll lock up somewhere around every 12 hours, sometimes more often, sometimes less. Once it locks up, the only way to fix it is either a sloppy workaround like the one I mentioned in my above comment, or a reboot of the MBP.
From the reading around I've done on the problem, it seems that for some people it causes the total freeze, like me, some people have just noticed erractic, delayed, or temporarily non-responsive use of varying severity, but just based on the number of people mentioning it, it certainly appears connected to the Mavericks update.
At a cursory glance, here's a handful of other users have a similar issue:

Can not do "two finger swipe to go back" in "look up" gesture.

In Mountain Lion the "two finger swipe right to go back" navigates just fine in the "look up" function in a three finger tap gesture.
But in Mavericks the two finger swipe right cannot go back.
This makes a low efficiency.
Do someone get the same issue or just me? Can this be fixed?
Thanks.

I just found out that the two finger swipe right don't do any thing on the right side of this red line in the pop up window, but on the left side of this red line, it works.
Still,
Low efficiency.
