Left touchpad button delay in web browsers

I'm at a loss to figure out what could be causing my left button on my touchpad to delay intermittently. On both Google Chrome (whether stable, beta or dev) and Firefox, the left button when pressed may not respond for up to a few seconds. This is most noticeable when using Google Street View and Google Maps, which refuse to change viewpoint when holding down the left button. It isn't a Flash fault because there is also a delay when highlighting text.
I can rule out the possibility of any hardware fault as the left button on the touchpad works fine elsewhere, within KDE (ie. drag and dropping works without delay or fault) and other applications.

HP Pavilion DV6-1264CA Artist Edition 2 left touchpad button is screwed up

I'm a proud owner of an Artist Edition DV6 laptop, but a few months ago the left touchpad button suffered a bit of a failure. Through normal use, the left side of the left button (the one you use to click on just about everything) seems to have broken down. I am not familiar with the inner workings of this device, but it feels like there are two underlying supports that hold the button up and allow it to be clicked down on, one on each side of the button.
A while ago, the left side of the button started squeaking while clicking, and now it sags down, and the button can be rocked from side to side. The right side of the button is still up, and it now sits on a slant. Visually it is just a minor annoyance, but what is driving me batty is that now the button essentially "clicks" on its own. It can still be used normally, but often the button will click multiple times within a fraction of a second. I only use the laptop for entertainment, but it's still annoying as hell, especially when playing games where unintended clicking can lead to irreversible actions.
I have looked into the HP catalog for repair parts, but as other Artist Edition owners have discovered, there are no specific parts for the AE model, and the only relevant part is a complete touchpad with the whole palm rest attached to it. Of course, the palm rest doesn't have the Artist Edition graphics on it, which I absolutely intend to keep.
So I was wondering, if i can locate another palm rest with the touchpad, is the touchpad transferrable to my palm rest? Or is it inseparable? Are all DV6 touchpads the same? Or alternately, if I disassemble my touchpad, what are the chances that it is repairable? Maybe something just popped out of place?
Oh, and before you ask, the laptop is out of warranty, and I'm not sure I trust the clowns at Best Buy to be able to fix it, and to do so in a timely manner. I'd rather explore all options and see if I can fix it myself first.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Phil

Does anybody have any input? I see tons of sellers selling HP DV6 parts on eBay, I just need to know if I can swap over a touchpad from one palmrest to another, and if all touchpads are the same in the DV6-7 range.

NB250-10G - left touchpad button does not work

I have a NB250 10G that until a couple of days ago had worked perfectly.
However, I then found that I could not operate the netbook with the touchpad.
However, all works fine with my USB plug-in mouse.
Everything seemed to be going haywire with the touch pad, but I now know what is wrong.
The right-hand touch-pad button works fine, but the left-hand button is producing the same result as the right-hand one. In other words, I have no working left-hand button - I can't click to open any icons, I can't close down - all that happens is that I get a mini-menu appearing just as with the right-hand button.
An online note to Toshiba has so far not been answered.
Can anyone help please? John

Thanks for your suggestion. Have been into the control panel and changed the touchpad keys from right-hander use to left-hander, applied change - No result. Then back to right-hander set up again - still both keys give the same results, ie a normal right-hand key result. But thanks for the help. You also suggest re-installing the mouse driver. I have no idea how to go about this - are you able to advise? Many thanks. John

Two finger scrolling does not work on Synaptics touchpad + clicking problems in web browsers

Hello, Since yesterday, i have problems with my synaptics touchpad on my HP Elitebook 8570w.The two finger scrolling and scrolling at the edge of the pad does not work.Also in google Chrome, all the links open in a new tab and when i try to click the new tab, it closes (normally that is the action when i click it with the middle touchpad button) Even in the practice mode of the synaptics settings of the touchpad, the two finger scrolling and edge scrolling does not work. Both options are enabled in the settings. I already tried to roll back the driver and reinstall the driver, without any effect.I expect the problem is the touchpad or the buttons itself. Is there a way to test the buttons and touch pad? How can i solve this problem? please help me sincerely, Karel

I would try installing the Windows 8.1 (64-bit) Synaptics touchpad driver available in your sleekbook's web support download section before using compatibility mode. Try the available earlier versions if the current driver does not work for you.
If you still do not have positive results, then use compatibility mode (choose Windows 8) on all three Windows 8.1 synaptics touchpad drivers, starting with the most current one.
To use compatibility mode to install the driver softpaq just right click on the file and choose troubleshoot compatibility. Choose Windows 8 and run the installer.

Left touchpad button sticks on Pavilion DM4

My wife has a DM4 2180us Pavilion notebook and lately the left button stick or does not register a click. Looking at it I believe the problem is that its rubbing against the chassis frame around the button. Have tried cleaning around it with a cotton swab and rubbing alcohol. But although it helped a little it still is sticking. Kind of upset that we have not even had this PC a year and already have replaced the WiFi card and have had issues with it shutting down randomly. Fan runs all the time and seems to be struggling to keep it cool. But that's yet another issue that I can't find a solution for.

The touchpad is probably dead. The driver can be installed on your notebook with a non-functional touchpad, that is why you are seeing it in the device manager. I would recommend calling HP support at 1-800-474-6836 to have it repaired or replaced.

DV6-1030US paint coming off left touchpad button

A small rice-sized irregular piece of the chrome paint has come off the plastic left button after only two months. It's not a nice smooth wear spot but with rough edges and is annoying.
I know it's just a cosmetic problem but it seems that the coating should not be coming off a two-month-old laptop that cost $700.
After about 90 minutes with HP Online Chat (who actually suggested I bring it in to the local Wal-mart for some reason !?), the Chat guy gave me a phone number and I talked with a Mumbai-based tech who was only willing to write up a service order for me to send it in which would entail unacceptable loss of use, risk of damage and the shipping expense.
I don't understand why they can't just send a new button cover. It would be cheaper than having me send in a functional laptop for a simple cosmetic repair. With 25 years of hardware & software development, I could easily change the part myself. If anyone has any clue as to how to get a replacement cover (even at my own expense), please let me know.
Meanwhile, I'll continue to be dismayed at the lack of common sense exhibited in my dealings with corporate America.
Cheers,

How to deal with those pesky touchpad buttons

The Pavilion series laptops are really well made in a lot of respects. I have owned my DV5t for almost 4 years now and I've been quite happy with it (except for rather anemic battery life). There is one thing that became a nasty problem for me, that being the left touchpad button. It is the most commonly used touchpad button and unfortunately these buttons were not well designed. They can easily break after a certain number of hits, whereby there's no longer any spring to it. Pressing the button ends up getting double-taps like mad. Also, the silver coating on them tends to wear away, looking rather unsightly over time. Once you start seeing the black plastic beneath, it won't be long before the button breaks. It's really a shame, because these tactile feel buttons work well--they just don't last. The newer HP laptops have those "lite touch" buttons which I do not like. The tactile feel is so much better. Unfortunately, it seems like most laptop makers are going with those solid state buttons to avoid another component that might go wrong. It's a shame, because with just a little more effort they could have been designed to last a very long time.
As of this writing, I have now gone through TWO of these touchpads. How did I manage to get another two chances? Well, they can be replaced but unfortunately they require you to disassemble more than half of the laptop. You see, the touchpad is integrated into the palm bezel, and the palm bezel is a piece of plastic coated metal that runs all the way to the back of the laptop. To get at it requires about an hour of taking the laptop apart. It's not for the faint of heart either. However, there is a service manual available that shows you what to do and I was able to follow it... thrice. Yes, the first button wore out after just under 2 years. The second one held up about as long. I use the touchpad buttons frequently, so... well, needless to say, now that I've got the 3rd bezel in place, I am going to rely mostly on an external mouse. And when I have to use the touchpad, I am going to use it very carefully, not exerting too much pressure (note that you can also tap the touchpad itself for a single click, something good to get into the habit of doing). Additionally, I'm going to put a sheet of protector plastic on the left mouse button to help avoid wearing out the surface.
So... one hour to disassemble it and a little more than an hour to reassemble it. It looked daunting to do at first, but believe me if you're patient and can follow instructions it is definitely doable. You don't need to be an HP tech to do it.
As for the parts, I obtained them from eBay. Apparently there are a lot of excellent condition used parts available from a variety of sources. I got the bezel for just under $30 shipped. Also, the speaker grille part is metal and tends to dent, so this time around I replaced it as well as the keyboard (the original was fine, but just a little touchy on one or two keys). With all 3 of these parts replaced, my laptop feels like new all over again. As for obtaining parts, you'll need to do your homework with the HP parts finder. There are many variants of the Pavilion laptop models with many parts in common, so the part you need can vary by number. The parts catalog can help you find them.
Anyway, that's about it. After having done this for the 3rd time, I figured there might be others out there with this problem on the brink of tossing out the laptop or selling it for parts on the cheap. It's salvageable!
"If you keep an open mind, life will give you more possibilities."

Thank you for your information and support. I may have to replace my touch pad and keyboard and you have given me hope and confidence. Thank you again,

DV5-1000 touchpad buttons, premature wear

After about a year of using my DV5-1000, the silver coated left touchpad button began to wear through to the black plastic underneath. Also, the button became noticeably loose, especially when compared to the right touchpad button. It eventually got to the point where the button would click unreliably.
I managed to buy a replacement palmrest part for the DV5, which contains the touchpad assembly (you cannot buy the assembly separately). Unfortunately, the palmrest is an integral part of the laptop, requiring 75% of it to be disassembled to remove the original part. I downloaded a service manual and went to work... and I got it done after 2 long hours. The new part fit properly and the laptop appeared as new.
A year later, I'm faced with the same problem yet again! I am not abusive to the touchpad buttons. This kind of wear should not be happening. I dread having to take apart the laptop again... but I am worried that the button will start developing click problems as the previous one did. I wonder if some kind of protective coating added to the button would help it. Anybody else here suffer premature wear to the left touchpad button?
"If you keep an open mind, life will give you more possibilities."

I had a look at some of the newer DV5 models and... I'm rather taken aback with how HP solved the touchpad button problem. They no longer have tactile keys. Instead, there's a soft touch membrane. This makes it very difficult to control sustained pressing of the button, as the travel from on to off is so short. It was a real cop-out in my mind, that HP didn't stick with tactile buttons. Sure, there were some problems with how they were intially implemented, but c'mon--so many other laptop makers have tactile buttons that don't wear out. Why couldn't HP have gone that route of just improving the button?
Also, what's with all of the wacky patterns that HP is now slathering over their laptop casings? It makes the laptop look a lot less professional. If they want to appeal to kids, make it so that there's an optional shell you can get with the laptop with whatever zany pattern you wish. Or instead, just opt for something conservative and wear resistant.

Lower touchpad button failing

My left touchpad button, the one down at the lower edge of the pad, is now only working when I press at the right 40% of the bar, pushing it anywhere else does nothing. How do I get access to this area?

LOL I tried to clean the dust out of a massive 17" SONY laptop my aunt had. I had to take off, like, 30 screws, the baseplate, the HDD assembly (???) and the optical drive.
Yeah, I had some trouble figuring out how to word "Average Battery Life". It's what it predicts you while you're doing basic word processing-like tasks. A rough range would work.
And the little tidbit on calculating works like: 80% predicts you 4 hours, then 4/0.80 (the decimal equivalent for a percent) gets you 5 hours. That extrapolation suggests that at 100% it would predict 5 hours.
I know my survey is a bit complex, but so far it seems that OS architecture, HDD manufacturer, and browser seem to have an effect on battery life.

I have exactly the same settings in Options (in both computers)
for history, these 2 add-ons and all other stuff in Options. The only difference is that on 1 pc sessions can be saved and closed tabs can be reopened, on other main pc they stopped to work. + no any other add-on that does similar things works on this pc.
It is also interesting that I can reopen closed visited sites from History Panel, but not by pressing the Button. For now I only manually bookmark links to a temporary folder.
Recently (some 2 month ago) I pressed x and Firefox closed all tabs without saving them without displaying save & quit pop up.
so I changed 4 settings in about.config
browser.tabs.warn on close true
browser.warn on quit true
browser.warn on restart true
browser.show.quit warning true
but the problem with sessions appeared only 1 week ago.
So I guess the problem is not with the History settings or other settings. Seems that something responsible for button or for storing info about tabs/sessions got corrupted. :(

Juno and Yahoo Webmail: Firefox makes the attach file button in webmail disappear and other web browsers don't

Using Juno and Yahoo webmail (only on this computer, not my others) the attach file button loads but then disappears when creating a new email or replying. All other web browsers allow me to attach files using these two webmail sites. This does not affect other sites like school applications to upload files for class in Firefox.

As mentioned in the original post, the user IS the owner and the permissions are WIDE open for the user. I have also tried to disable the anti-virus - no luck. The problem is ONLY happening in Firefox. Chrome and IE work perfect. There is also no problem in Windows. The user can add/remove/edit files in the directory. Right now the solution seems to be to use Chrome. I'm not excited about that, but at this point, the only option.

S10 - Left click button below the touchpad is non-responsive....anyone else?

My left click button appears to no longer be responsive. I've checked the buttons settings and it is set as primary, normal drag, etc......
It doesn't appear to be a problem with the button(hardware) as I still get a strong click action, just doesn't appear to process the click logically.
I searched the board and didn't find anything specific to this.
I've uninstalled/reinstalled the Synaptics touchpad driver but still nothing on the left click.......
Thanks.
Geoff

USB mouse works just fine.........left-click button, non-responsive........guess I'll open it up and check out the contact points.......
