Lost two finger scrolling with Win 10 install

After installing Windows 10, two finger scrolling on the touch pad no longer works. Has anyone found a fix for this yet?

You need to go to the hardware manufacture support site and look for fixes and updates there.

Two-finger scrolling with xorg hotplugging?

How can I activate two-finger scrolling with the latest xorg version?

Mine's on by default i.e. I have no setting for it in the .fdi file, but it's working anyway. Try setting it explicitly with the VertTwoFingerScroll/HorizTwoFingerScroll parameters.

Did software updates and lost two finger scroll

I had Lion on a partioned drive. After getting updates for Adobe, I updated to lion the whole drive. When I updated I lost two finger scrolling system wide.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Don't know why it would reset, but scrolling is controlled in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > Trackpad options.. button > check Scrolling.

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

Why doesn't two-finger scrolling work for me with Yosemite?

MacBook Pro from 2010, upgraded to Yosemite and now none of my two-finger scrolling works with the Trackpad. Doesn't work on any application - Chrome, Safari, Word, anything. It's super annoying. Tried messing around with Trackpad options in system preferences, didn't help.

Hi thekidcanada,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that this type of situation can be very frustrating. One troubleshooting step I would recommend would be to reset the PRAM on your computer. I know the article is written for Mavericks but the steps will be the same for Yosemite.

T440s Win 8.1 Remote Desktop two finger scrolling

Two finger touchpad scrolling in Chrome desktop mode has been pretty bad on my T440s until the recent driver update. But after the update, I've noticed now that in the tiles version of remote desktop, two finger scrolling no longer works. It acts as a right mouse click and hold to select text or drag. In the desktop version of remote desktop on windows 8.1, two finger scrolling works fine.
I saw an article about editing the Synaptics config file to get two figure scrolling to work in the desktop version by adding a lince that references mstsc.exe, but that line is already in my Synaptics config file. Not sure how to get Synaptics to pass gestures when using the tiles/metro version of RDP.
Any ideas?

Well, I've confirmed it. This is a Synaptics driver issue. I went back to a 16.X version and the scrolling within windows 8.1 tiles version of remote desktop works.
But, I can see what Synaptics did between these two drivers. In the latest version of the driver, two finger scrolling is now handled like trackpoint scrolling now. With trackpoint, if you hold the center button down and mobe the trackpoint vertically, a vertical scroll icon appears and scrolling works well in windows 8.1 and within a remote desktop session in using the tiles version. The vertical scroll icon appears in both cases. And when you do two figure scrolling in the desktop, the vertical scroll icon appears, but when you go to a remote desktop session (tiles version), two finger scroll does NOT work, no vertical scroll icon appears. In the remote desktop session, the two finger scroll is treated like a right click and drag. This is horrible because if you try to two finger scroll in an explorer window, you can accidentally move files or folders into other folders!!!! FRUSTRATING and dangerous!
In the desktop version of remote desktop, this is not an issue, when two finger scrolling happens, the vertical scroll icon does appear and scrolling works!
In the old version of driver, the two finger scrolling must be handled independently of the way trackpoint scrolls... there is never a vertical scroll icon but scrolling always works, albeit herky jerky and buggy in some programs. In the new version of driver, the bugginess is now fixed, except this new two finger scrolling issue has been introduced.
I think the suggestion about modifying the Synaptic tp4table.dat file is a good one except that I can't seem to add a windows 8.1 tiles app to this file... have no idea how to do that as the tiles apps are OS protected and are not exactly .exes. UGH! Ideas about this??
Just got off a horrible telephone support session trying to report this... tech kept asking me about my boot issues... I don't have boot issues! I don't expect any help to come soon... I guess I hope someone at Lenovo or Synaptic actually reads this stuff!
Please Synaptic... this should be a simple, quick fix.

I am using Mac running OS X Mavericks (10.9.1) and Firefox 26. Two finger scroll down is not working all of a sudden only with Firefox.

Hardware : Macbook Pro
Operating System : OS X Mavericks v10.9.1
Browser : Firefox v26.0
All of a sudden, two finger scrolls doesn't work. Thats only when I am within Firefox Window. Everywhere it just works great. I got NO scroll bars at the edges of browser(Firefox) too. No way of proper browsing other than switching to Safari.
Request to fix this asap.
Thanks.

I'm having the same problem but what I found was the scrolling on my iMac was it works until you try and swipe to go back a page. Then the only solution is the quit the program and restart it.
Spec is an Apple magic track Pad on my iMac with OS X 10.9.
I'm currently using FireFox v25 but the same issue is in v27.0.1.

Windows 10 -problems with touchpad and two-finger scrolling

I upgraded to Windows 10, and the touchpad settings default to enable reverse scrolling direction with the two-finger scrolling. I disabled that, and it works all right.. But when I restart my computer, the change isn't saved and I have to do it all over again Is there any way to get the system to recognize the change to the settings after rebooting? I would think it would be simple, but even creating a separate profile doesn't work.

T430s: Old mouse drivers? (two-finger scroll broken)

Hi all,
I just used the lenovo update manager to update my mouse driver to version 16.2.19.2 (latest) for my T430s with Win 7. Previously I had been using the two-finger scroll all the time and have really been enjoying this feature. However, the new driver has been giving me some unwanted behavior - instead of scrolling only on two fingers, now it scrolls with one finger about half the time.
I've double checked that I'm not accidentally touching the pad with another finger. I one-finger edge scrolling disabled, as I have found this unreliable anyway. I can get back to reliable one-finger movement by un-checking the two-finger scroll from the advanced ultra-nav options in mouse settings. However, re-enabling this still gives the unwanted one finger scrolling for a touch anywhere on the pad.
So unless anyone has any better ideas, I'd figure I would roll back to the older driver. Unfortunately, the lenovo update manager has no history of the old driver, nor does windows device manager. And the driver listed on the lenovo site here, is the same version as the one I'm currently running. So.... anyone have the link to the old driver or any other ideas?
Thanks!
[Edited to avoid wall-of-text]

Go to Solution.

Okay, I've tried multiple un-install / re-install cycles. I've removed the ultra-nav and synaptics files after uninstalling the driver from device manager and add-remove programs (you have to do both it seems). And a fresh re-install of both, together and individually.
The problem still persists.
After checking with other solutions on the forums, I gave a third-party program "two-finger scroll" a try (http://code.google.com/p/two-finger-scroll/) and it is working much better. I can't devote any more time to this problem, and this solution seems to be excellent.

Photo Booth and Two Finger Scrolling

Is there anyway to install Photo Booth or the Two Finger Scrolling features on a 12" PowerBook? Just Wondering.
Thanks,
Shane Eliason

I think there may be some specifics here as to what 12" Powerbook we are talking about. If it's an older model, the preference setting is not available, however all may not be lost. See this link.

Two Finger Scroll Reversed in Modern Apps

Hello, I have a new Thinkpad Yoga and for some reason two finger scrolling in modern apps is fixed to reversed scrolling (scrolling down moves the page up and vice versa). Both horizontal and vertical scrolling are affected.
I have the latest Ultranav drivers and I unclicked "reverse scrolling" from the options. Desktop Apps scroll normally. Also, when I use the edge scroll it works as expected on both desktop and modern apps.
I'm thinking that there are separate entries in the registry for scrolling in modern apps or something like that...
Thanks!
-Gerardo
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi, thanks for the help. Unfortunately I have already tried that.
I figured out it has something to do with how the latest UltraNav driver treats the touchpad in the Win8 modern environment. It simulates a touch screen when using two fingers. I installed the generic Synaptics driver which solved the problem but created a new one. Namely, it does not turn off the touchpad when using the Yoga in tablet or stand modes.
Another solution was to go into the registry and disable the TouchInjectionAction Key. This helped in some apps but others wouldn't recognize scrolling at all.
I'm honestly at wits end...

Two finger scrolling does not work ONLY on Firefox

This just started today, suddenly my two finger scrolling doesn't work but only when I'm in Firefox, offline and on Safari and Chrome it's fine. Restarting Firefox only fixes it for a few minutes, then it stops working again. All of the suggestions I've found that I've tried haven't worked, please if anyone could help and also break it down fairly easily, I'd really appreciate it.

Does this happen in Safe Mode?
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
:[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

The same issue happens on Firefox 35.0 running in safe mode, Mavericks 10.9.5, both with Magic Mouse and normal standard mouse...
It's unbeliaveble this issue is going on since more than one year ago, I can find people complaining about it since December 2013!
Oh, one more thing: I don't have a two finger swipe configuration, I have single finger swipe, so the actual problem is about scrolling the page in itself (considering I've tested it with a normal standard mouse as well....).

Satellite C50-B-14D - Two finger scroll is not working

I have had my laptop for about 6 months now and am generally happy with it. However, the two finger scroll has stopped working (it was working fine when I got it and for a while after). I know it's not essential, but it makes such a difference for the work I end up having to do, which often involves copying and pasting etc, and I really miss it!
I've read many threads saying that you should go to Control Panel, click on Mouse and go to device settings. However when I get to that point, my Mouse box just says "buttons; pointers; pointer options; hardware" and there is no "device settings" panel along the top. What can I do? I also can't find the synaptics driver anywhere to uninstall it, as some other people have suggested.

Obviously this additional touchpad feature isn’t available because the touchpad driver isn’t installed.
I recommend you to visit the Toshiba EU driver page and to download the touchpad driver for this notebook model.
I’m not quite sure what touchpad module this notebook supports (Synaptics or ELAN) but I think you could try to check both drivers.
If one would not work, check the other one…
After that you should see the additional tab within control panel -> mouse
