Magic TrackPad not scrolling

I updated to Lion on my iMac and bought a Magic TrackPad.  I can't seem to get scrolling to work.  I have gone into preferences and unchecked the gestures, closed out of preferences and then reopened and rechecked.  Still no scrolling.  Any suggestions

I don't have usb overdrive unless it came with something else.  Can I go somewhere and get a list of known conflicts?
Some third party app I use and have open are
Dolly drive
Evernote
Growl
Dropbox

  • New magic trackpad not scrolling and wiping.

    i have a new magic trackpad, using it with my iMac. on my account it works, except for scrolling and wiping. as soon as i have two fingers on it the cursor is unmovable. (one, three, four fingers ok) the two fingers are the most important gestures. and they don't work. my magic mouse behalfs normally, scrolling and wiping ok.
    on the account of my wife -same imac- the trackpad is working normally.
    i tried to unmark and mark every item in the prefs. no succes.
    any ideas?

    Glad it working now!! 
    The preferences are set individually for each user on the Mac.  That way you can have one set of preferences and your wife can have her own.  That's why one worked and the other didn't.

  • Magic Trackpad  not fully functional

    Magic Trackpad not working (4 finger swipe) after downloading an update to Lion. Whats happened?

    exactly same issue here, 5k retina With i7 and 295. chatted online with apple support and they can't figure out the problem.   Maybe its a common problem with retina iMac?  Also, i tried bt headphone, the sound quality is terrible, definitely something wrong with bt in the imac
    btw, if you figure out a solution, definitely tell me please.

  • Why can my magic trackpad not be found?

    Why can my magic trackpad not be found? It was working fine before the upgrade.

    Ok, I found the problem. I guess the trackpad powers down at 15% because it came on for a brief moment for me to see that my batts were low.  I must have bad rechargeable batteries, I put these in just last week ago and they are dead. I guess it was just a coincidence that is happened at the same time of the upgrade. The green light would come on and it made me think all was ok.

    "Fix?" To my knowledge there is no widespread problem (I have none myself).

  • Magic trackpad not recognized by MacBook air

    Macbook air bluetooth does not recognize Magic Trackpad when searching for bluetooth pairings. Printed instructions followed.Can I download something that remedies this, or is it a limitation of the MacBOok Air itself?

    I called Apple Support. My early 2008 version of the MacBook is not compatible with the Magic Trackpad.

  • Magic Trackpad not working on iMac after 10.8.5 update Help!

    The Magic Trackpad was working fine antil I did the OS X Lion 10.8.5 Update yesterday and the trackpad has not worked since.

    Look your System Preferences - Trackpad and see if it needs adjustment. If sill no joy then try doing a SMC reset 3x and if that fails try resetting the PRAM 3X. If you are not familiar with these please click

    for instructions.

  • Magic trackpad not working with mac mini

    I have a new Mac mini and I paired a wireless trackpad and magic trackpad.  I paired the trackpad with my MBP and it works exactly like the trackpad on my MBP.  When I use the trackpad with the mini, I can't get it to "right click" or two finger scroll.  For example, if I'm in iTunes, and want to scroll through my library, a two finger scroll on the trackpad just moves the curser, the only way I can move up and down on a page is to use the arrows.  I can't get it to give me anything with a right click.  When I go to System Prefrences, it only shows "keyboard" and "mouse", but no set up options for the trackpad.  And under the mouse settings, it doesn't give me any "secondary" click options.  What am I missing?

    I had the same problem. Rebooting the computer fixed the issue for me.

  • Freeze during startup if magic trackpad not available

    Down in SF last week and bought a magic trackpad and installed it. worked fine.
    Got home and turned on my MBP; it froze during startup with only the finder window open, no dock, and not much else. mouse pointer couldn't click on things, etc. I tried restarting and restarting into my test (bare bones) account. No luck.
    Then I wondered if the problem was that my new magic trackpad was there and turned on. That was the problem. As soon as I got the trackpad and turned it on, my system completed normal startup.
    Anyone else have this experience. This seems like a bug.

    Today I tried to replicate my problem and couldn't. Either by turning off the trackpad before I shut down or else while my computer was off.
    So apparently my incident was an isolated one.

  • Magic Trackpad not working properly since upgrade

    Since I upgraded to Mountain Lion, my Magic Trackpad hasn't been working properly. Specifically, the 4 finger gesture to switch between full-screen apps and the 2 finger gesture to open Notifiction Center stop working after awhile. From what I can find out it seems to be connected to my iMac going into sleep mode. I have a feeling this is a bug that Apple needs to fix. Besides going through Restart or into Terminal Mode, is there anything else that can be done?

    Thanks for the information. Unfortunately, I still have to restart the computer to do this and as soon as it goes to sleep again, I'll have the same problem.

  • Mac mouse wheel & trackpad--not scrolling in flash fields

    In several (probably all) Flash apps, scrollable fields do not respond to my mousewheel or trackpad scrolls. Thoughts?
    Running current Snow Leopard, and Flash 10.0.45.2.
    Thanks!

    Hi hunter, The person that possibly could help you hasn't been on the forum today. I am a newbie when it comes to the
    Mac:-) Perhaps he will be on later. He most always replies to the threads that have Mac in their subject line.
    Flash Player with a PC is what I understand the best.
    If I thot I could have been any help, I would have responded earlier.

  • Magic Mouse not scrolling after OS X update

    After OS X update (now at 10.10.3), my Magic Mouse no longer scrolls in Finder. Has anyone else experienced this? Double-checked Accessibility setting and scrolling is Enabled. Any suggestions on a fix would be appreciated. On a Mac Mini - Mid 2011 8gbRAM i7chip.

    10.3 and earlier refer to Panther and earlier operating systems.  Please post in the Yosemite forum:

  • NEW MAGIC MOUSE NOT SCROLLING.....

    HI,
    I have just synced my new magic mouse with my macbook. However it just operates as a normal mouse. In the settings it comes up as an Apple Wireless mouse and doesn't give me any options other than a normal mouse. What is the problem and how can i solve it.
    Thanks

    My problem has been solved by the people at Robina Apple Centre.
    I had to have the mouse connected as it was and then do a system update. It found an update for the mouse and is now working. Thanks Apple.

  • TS3048 why does my Magic Mouse not scroll all the time.

    It is intermittent when I open Mail and Calendar.
    It will be working and after 5 minutes, just stops for no real reason.  No pattern either.
    I tried doing something called a system controller reset ( or similar) and that worked for about 2 days.
    does anyone have some advice or discovered the issue.  My mouse is one year old and the batteries are at 100%. 
    thanks!

    I've got the same issue - seems to have started happening since Mavericks upgrade. Pretty frustrating, so would be keen to get some guidance on this

  • Is there a way to control the Magic Trackpad scrolling speed?

    I just got the new magic Trackpad.
    I am finding the speed of scrolling in window to be quite fast such that I it goes to far. Is there anyway to control the speed of it so it does not go to fast?
    Thanks and I look forward to your reply.

    I haven't received my MTP yet but if it works like the trackpad on my MBP you just don't flick your finger so fast. The speed is governed by how quickly you move your finger across the surface which is something I find very cool because it puts me in total control.
    Regards,
    Roger
