Lion finder 2 finger gesture?

In Finder, i cannot use 2 finger to enlarge. i try 3 4 finger they do not work~
For example：
In Snow Leopard i can use 2 finger to enlarge my desktop file icon，but in Lion it does not work～
I wander to know if I can set up some gesture, or the function is cancelled.

I used to enjoy 2-finger swipe to go forward and backwards in applications.
For example, 2-finger swipe on Chrome browser (or any browser) would go back/forward on previously viewed webpages.
On iTunes, 2-finger swipe would help me easily navigate back to All Artists view.
In system prefs, try chosing "Swipe with Two or Three fingers" in the drop down menu for Swipe Between Pages. You can still use the 2 finger swipe in safari, but you can use the old 3 finger swipe (with the old direction) in iTunes/Finder/Mac App Store etc.
Let me know if this helps!

I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan.

Three finger gestures not working on Mountain Lion

Since upgrade to Mountain Lion, gestures have become unreliable. Gestures for Mission Control, switching between full screen app, etc. (which are set with three fingre swipes) work sometimes but won't work most of the time. Anyone else facing the same problem?

I had this problem but I found it was the settings that changed when mountain lion was installed.
Mountain lion changed my three finger gestures to four finger gestures when swiping between full screen apps.
I found there were extra settings. Apparently when installing mountain lion my three finger gestures were changed to four finger gestures.

Today I updated the OX Maverisk. It turns out that the three finger gesture in the finder( go back and forward) is disabled. How can I get this function back? I love it so much!!!

Try System Preferences/Trackpad/More Gestures.

Did Lion eliminate the finger gestures for show the previous page and show the next page? I've checked system settings for the track pad and it looks like the got rid of one of my favorite finger gestures when browsing the internet. How do I get it back

I've upgraded to LION. It looks like LION eliminates the finger gestures within internet browsing that used to yield navigating to the previous page or navigating to the next page. I think it was a 3 finger swipe to the left and a 3 finger swipe to the right. It looks like this has been eliminated. I've gone into the system preferences and went through all the new settings for the track pad finger gestures. I've not found a combination that allows me to swipe on the track pad to do the page forward / page back function.
How to I get this back? I was my favorite one and now I can't get there!

For going back to the previous page try a 2-finger gesture. Two fingers in the other direction will take you back.

ALL the Icons disappear for seconds after using five-finger-gesture and swipe to another page in the home screen

Hello,
iPad Air, 8.1.2
This issue has been making me annoyed for a long time...
You can find the bug by following steps:
1). Go to Settings APP.
2). Use five-finger-gesture to close this APP, and quickly swipe to another page of home screen before the icons in the current page haven't dropped down.( I mean...The animation that likes icons dropping down)
3). You can see ALL the icons will disappear for seconds.
I've restored the firmware again and again, but it doesn't helped at all...
And if I turn on the "reduce motion" option, the icons won't disappear.
And...Some little bugs:
1) In APP switcher, when swiping up to close APPs, the icon's animation is lost. (I mean...The icons shouldn't disappear without any animations. In iOS7, the icons should have a "closing animation"
2)In lock screen, press the power button with a very high speed, and you will see the "time" in the lock screen is being appeared and disappeared, appeared and disappeared, appeared and disappeared...
I hope you can understand me, I'm sorry for my bad English, I'm a middle school student in China, and I have to report these bugs.

I am not seeing that problem, however, this is a user forum. You aren't talking to Apple here.

Windows 8.1 two finger gestures not working

After I updated to windows 8.1 from windows 8 yesterday, none of my two finger gestures are working. (e.g. two finger scroll, two finger click, or zoom) I tried updating my Synaptics driver and nothing has changed. I still can not use any of my two finger gestures. One finger scrolling is working properly but the two finger gestures are my favorite. All my gestures worked fine until I updated to windows 8.1...
Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this?
Please help!

Hello HelpMe0,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand two-finger prompts are not working since upgrading to Windows 8.1. I will do my best to help, but first, I require the computer's model number. If you require assistance locating this information, please reference this website: Guide to finding your product number
Thanks!

Multi finger gesture not working

Hi,
My laptop is hp 15-r014TX.
Recently my touchpad multi finger gesture has stopped working. I can not scroll using 2-finger scroll, right click, rotation, zoom in and out. However, one-finger gestures are all working fine like I can swap between apps by left swipe, options appear by right swipe. I tried changing the settings, but of no use.
Thanks,
Pragya

Hello @Pragya_Mathur ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP 15-r014tx Notebook and the finger gestures not working correctly. Here is a document on how to troubleshoot the finger gestures on a Touchpad.
If you will go to the section on common TouchPad gestures, TouchPad and ClickPad configuration options are located on the TouchPad properties page. It shows you the Clickpad properties page. You can select the options. This only works on programs that have this capability, such as a photo browser or word processor.
Hope this fixes your issue with finger gestures.
Thanks.

Will bamboo touch and pen with lion multi touch gestures

Will bamboo touch and pen work with lion multi touch gestures just like the magic track pad?

only the new unibody macbooks were built with a multi touch macbook anything before that only have the normal trackpad with 2 finger scrolling

3 and 4 finger gestures

Upgraded Lion and so far no issues, only two things are not working the way I kind of link it.
iPhoto
1.) I would swipe 4 fingers left or right in iPhoto to flip through pictures while editing them such as tagging faces, but now it flips between desktops.
Safari/Chrome
2.) I would use 4 fingers left or right to go back to the previous page in my browser, which does save time.
Under System Pref, TrackPad, More Gestures, Swipe Between full screen apps, is set to 3 fingers. I tried setting to 4, then back to 3 and even rebooting, but for some reason 4 fingers contiunes to change between desktops. Editing photos in iPhoto by swiping to the next is something I really need. Is there anyway to fix this or figure out why the 4 finger left/right is stuck?
Thanks

Like I said b4, I got a different version than you. So I will show you parts via pics and then the rest will be from memory.
Go to the Synaptic Control Panel:
Then, the CP should appear.....
On the top, you should see a few tabs.... the 2nd tab on the top should say something like multi-touch.
This will then show you the double finger functions..... under the multitouch tabs, there are more tabs..... 1 says double finger function and the other says triple finger gestures.....
I hope this helps.... If not, please wait for someone else to post some pics. I refuse to install that horrible driver lol.

I use a Mac (OS 10.6.8) and I have lost two finger gesture of enlarge/shrink, which works in other applications

Ever since I upgraded to firefox 6 I have lost the two finger gesture built into OS 10.6. I have this ability in other programs such as iPhoto, and Safari, but I have lost it in Firefox. Other two finger gestures still work (like scrolling).
I cannot upgrade to Firefox 7 or 8 simply because a Learning Management System that I use for work (Angel) is not compatible with Firefox 7 or 8).

In Lion, Finder does not keep preferences

In Lion, Finder opens in my home page. When I tell it to open in another folder, it remembers for about 3-4 days, and then goes back to to my home page. How can I get it to remember my preference?

When I shut down, I unclick the "remember windows" box. By "home page" I'm referring to the folder with my name on it in the sidebar. The problem is with the Preferences. Under "New Finder Windows Show" I ask it to open a folder. After I close preferences, Finder will open in the requested folder for a few days, and then stop, and go back to its default, which is the home folder.

Finger gesture not working on ipad

Ever since the iOS 8 update and the latest updates there after, figure gestures on my iPad are simply not working. To get then to work you need to drag down from the top of the screen to see notifications and then it works. have spoken to apple and they suggested it was an app but it does it on everything. Come on apple sort this out its very frustrating. Has anyone had this and have a solution ?

Define "finger gestures". The iPad is a touch screen device so that's a pretty broad category. If you are talking about multi tasking gestures, like pinching to the home screen, or using a four finger swipe, I have found it to be flakey since the iOS 8 update as well. If it quits working on me, I go into the Settings>General>Mulitasking Gestures and turn it off, then on again. That's not a fix, but it usually holds for a few weeks before I uave to do it again.

Mountain Lion Finder has no boolean operators? Where? When?

Mountain Lion Finder has no boolean operators? If so, where? If not, when? THANKS

Are you talking about the Find window?
If so, just add the criteria you want by clicking the + button. By default, they are Ands. If you want to Or them, or Negate them, hold down the option key and click on the + button.

LION: How do I get LION Finder to remember a window's settings as always before?

LION: How do I get LION Finder to remember a window's settings (view, window size, position, toolbar, sidebar) like always before? It remembers soon after, but after a time it forgets and does what it wants. Redoing this over and over is driving me crazy. I've been using Mac since 1986 and never had this problem,. One of the most beloved things about the Mac OS is that it REMEMBERS the setting for virtually everything! Clearly, Jobs has been out of action during LION development.
Maybe there's a way (with TERMINAL or finder prefs??) to adjust the "Time To Forget" to infinity (because it's OK for a while and then reverts to defaults again).

You don't (unfortunately) . Best to be patient until 10.7.2 is released (any day now), and which should fix this bug. If that doesn't work, then report it to Apple, but this is a BIG bug that Apple must and will fix soon.
BTW, I suspect you may be right about Steve Jobs influence, but hopefully this is just an exception.
