MacBook Pro Trackpad not working with 3 and 4 fingers.

Ok, today I opened up my MB and I tried using my trackpad with the three and four finger swipe and it does not work. It lets me scroll with two fingers, but I cannot pinch to zoom in or out. It was working just fine last night and I don't know what happened. Does anybody know anything about this?

Sometimes this just seems to happen. A reset of the PRAM ususally corrects things.

    I see that you are having an issue with getting the printer reinstalled. 
    I suggest that we start off by running the HP Print and Scan Doctor.  If the Doctor fails, please let me know where it fails as well as any error codes it may generate.

  • My 2011 i7 15" Macbook pro will not work with hardware virtualization

    I have a Mac Book Pro with an Intel i7 2.66 MHz chip and it will not support Hardware Virtualization. When I try to create a Virtual Machine in VMware Fusion it fails with the error that my MBP does not support "Hardware Virtualization".

    clivefromcape town,
    replacing a hard drive is one of the easier “surgeries” to do in a MacBook Pro; it really isn’t difficult.
    Regarding my opinion on HDD vs. SSD, I have a Mid 2010 MacBook Pro, and I did a SSD “transplant” on it this past autumn. I’d chosen the 512 GB Samsung 840 PRO SSD; a major selling point for me was its five-year warranty, which I’d interpreted as being representative of Samsung’s best estimate of product return rates. Other people here have good things to say about the Crucial SSDs; I’ve never had one, so I can’t comment on them. My MacBook Pro certainly boots up faster and loads programs faster because of the SSD, but a SSD will not make programs run faster unless a program’s performance bottleneck is with disk access; most programs will not have such a bottleneck. Your recent RAM increase will probably help more with program run speed than a SSD would. That being said, I neither watch movies nor listen to music on my MacBook Pro; perhaps a SSD would help with movie playback, since that might be an example of a disk-bound program.

  • Why does my Macbook pro 1226 not work with my new Apple USB Superdrive? USB works otherwise but when I connected my new drive it clicks and then thats it. I put the DVD in but it doesn't grab it or attempt to access it at all.

    Hi Everone,
      I purchased my 2007 Macbook pro 1226 online for a song and other than this annoyance i've been very satisfied. But lately i'm missing the use of my internal super drive to view DVD's (Always seem to miss what we don't have Grrr). So I figured I would purchase a brand new USB Apple Superdrive, problem solved right? NOPE. Now I've found that my pro doesnt seem to like it one bit and all USB's work fine so it's not that.
    I will be disapointed if this can not be resolved, My Macbook is otherwise perfect and better than any new PC I've ever had.
    Can Someone try and help me please?

    I do know that for new MBPs there is a no questions asked return policy if returned within 14 days of purchase.  I am not certain if that applies for peripherals.  If you have not damaged it, I would think that the odds are on your side if you return it for a refund.  Obviously you have a good reason for the return. 
    Then it may be a good reason to purchase a new MBP.    In any event, call the store and ask.
    Ciao.

  • MacBook Pro trackpad not working correctly

    The last few days my MacBook Pro track pad is not working properly. For instance the trackpad doesn't click (sometimes on left but not at all on the right side). The mouse clicks on things and drags them, basically is acting very annoying. I've press down on all the corners to make it work and can hear grit sounds under the  trackpad e.g. Crumbs, also tried going round all the pad with my nails but not making any difference. I haven't got AppleCare but I bought it January/February

    Hi rbarnes1121,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    From what I understand, your trackpad on you MacBook Pro can be erratic and perform commands that you are not meaning for it to perform. In this situation, I would recommend reading over the attached article to help troubleshoot this situation.

  • Macbook Pro Retina not working with HDMI

    I have a Mac Book Pro Retina that will not work using the HDMI port. I have tried with two Monitors and difference cable and the issue happens on both. I connected one via a Display Port to VGA and it works fine.
    I'd like to use the HDMI port. I am running Mountain Lion 10.8.4 (Latest Version).
    I have tried deleting the pref panes as outlined in ofther links. Aslo reset pram without sucess.
    Is anyone using a Macbook Pro Retina with builtin HDMI port sucessfully with 10.8.4?
    If you are using HDMI with Display port let me know if I should get an adpater to test.

    Hi walkerheather,
    It sounds like you've already done most of the pertinent steps here:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573
    I would recommend going through once and trying anything you may have missed in the section "No video or no signal, image distortion, 'snow,' or flickering" and then follow these steps from the very bottom:
    If you tried all of these steps for your display and the video issues persist, contact Apple technical support or take your Apple computer to the nearest Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) for diagnosis. If you plan to visit an Apple Retail Store, make a reservation at the Genius Bar using http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ (available in some countries only).
    Note: Diagnostic fees may apply for issues not covered under warranty or the AppleCare Protection Plan (APP).
    Take care,

  • Macbook Pro Sound not working with HDMi

    Hello, I have an early 2013 Macbook Pro on OS X Yosemite (10.10), 3 GHz Intel Core i7, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3. If you need more specifics about my computer, please let me know. I use an external LG monitor and separate external speaker, all connected through HDMI (I connect the speakers to the monitor, and the monitor to the computer using an HDMI cable. I find that sometimes the sound just cuts out sporadically and unpredictably. I'll be playing a game, and all of a sudden there is a pop and no sound thereafter. I have to restart the game in order to get the sound back. Sometimes I'm using Chrome and watching Youtube and the same thing. I'll have to restart the program to get sound back. Other times, I have to restart the entire computer because sound is missing from the entire computer.
    I've tried switching the sound outputs back and forth from "internal" to "external monitor", with no avail. I've also tried plugging in my earphones (and the sound works), and unplugging them, and the external speaker sound still won't work. After a program or sometimes computer full restart, then the sound will work fine. What can possibly be the cause of this?
    Thanks!

    go to display, preferences, while the tv is hooked up to the computer. two boxes will come up, one for each screen respectively.
    on the tv that you want to correct, go to color, then calibrate, and then change the colors through that.
    Your tv may also not have the default colors on. you may want to look in your TV's setup menu and make everything go to default so you can start fresh and clean. Some TVs will save setting specific to an input and that would explain the weird colors.

  • Macbook Pro Trackpad Not Working After Accident

    I am a DJ and use my 2006 Macbook Pro to spin tunes. Recently, I did an outdoor gig where this big gush of wind knocked down one of speakers onto my head then fell onto the right side of my macbook pro.  =[
    The rightside of the MBP (right above the CD drive) was a big valley in it now.  And for some odd reason my trackpad is stuck in permanent click down mode.
    Even more odd.... I can click and double click right above the cd drive now?  What happened?  What can I do to remove the bend and fix the trackpad without it costing me a fortune?

    You'll have to replace the case & whatever else is damaged. Go to an Apple store or AASP for an estimate. No, this will not be cheap.

    Hi - I have the exact same model as your MacBook and had a few questions as mine is acting up. I upgraded the ram to 8gb (2x 4GB ram) and ever since then my computer has not been running as smoothly and the start up time is horrendous. Have you encountered this problem? And if so how did you fix? What would you advise me do?
    I was thinking of reverting back to the original factory 4GB then rebooting the entire computer. Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!

  • ICloud sync with MacBook Pro does not work

    I've installed iOS 5, updated Lion to 10.7.2, marked Calendar and Contacts sync in System settings for iCloud on my Mac. However iCal and Address Book sync between iCloud and Mac (MacBook Pro) does not work though there is no problem in syncing between iCloud and iPhone. Whether I create new event or contact, change existing one or delete existing one in iCloud this change is not reflected on my Mac and vise versa. I could not find a solution in this site or in forums.

    Yep, worked for me, too and now contacts and calendar seem to be syncing perfectly.  We'll see if it lasts.
    Thanks for your answer.

  • My Contacts app for macbook pro will not connect with my yahoo and keeps asking for password.

    My Contacts app for macbook pro will not connect with my yahoo account and repeatedly asks for yahoo password, any soliutions to this?

    This is due to a change in Yahoo's security settings. You need to go into your Yahoo account settings and create a special App Password, then use that password in Contacts to access your account. Same goes for Calendar.

  • The sound on my macbook pro is not working

    The sound on my macbook pro is not working. When I increase the sound, the icon appears as if everything is working, but no sound comes from the speakers. Earphones don't work either. I have tried a PRAM reset but at times, this doesn't even work. It's really frustrating having to restart my computer every time I want the sound to work, and even when I do that, theres a 50 50 chance of it working again. It generally happens after my laptop goes to sleep and I wake it up. Has anyone else had this problem and fixed it or even know what caused it?
    There are a lot of discussions around the earphone jack but I have checked that. I've tried a PRAM reset which hasn't worked, and my sound output is set to Internal speakers.
    HELP!!

    Hopefully one of these steps should solve the problem.
    1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
        Highlight  Internal Speakers / Headphones
        Make sure Mute is not enabled.
    2. Remove the headphone.
        If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
        in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
        Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
    3. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
        Choose the method for:
        "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
    4. Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup
        Audio Devices window
        Side Bar
        Click the Built-in Output.
        Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so, uncheck it.
