Magic trackpad scrolling not working new iMac 5k

I just received my new iMac with Trackpad included and the two finger scrolling is not working.  I have verified settings, made sure I am in a scrollable window with the cursor, tried turning on and off natural scrolling and other options to no avail.  I did transfer from my old iMac and it is possible there was something on it that was interfering.  I did delete the software for my old mouse.  I am at a loss for what to try next but am very frustrated and disappointed that this is not working.

  • Horizontal trackpad scrolling not working

    Just got a new MacBook (white, 2.1GHz, OS 10.5.6) and am getting used to it. But I have discovered that the horizontal two-finger scrolling on the trackpad does not work. (I know how this is supposed to work, 'cause it worked fine on my old 1.83GHz MacBook).
    I know about the button in the trackpad control panel. If it's checked, attempts to scroll horizontally result in strange vertical scrolling. If it's unchecked. vertical scrolling returns to normal.
    Any help?

    Any way to intentionally disable it? Can you recall that program now? I want to buy it.
    I cannot stand horizontal scrolling and gesture resizing in Safari. You used to be able to turn horizontal scrolling in 10.5.4.
    I just find every time I scroll down a webpage or document, my hand must lean a little to the right and I end up not being able to read the document or page.
    Is ANNOYING!
    (To me at least.)

  • After pairing in Bootcamp, magic trackpad does not work

    after pairing in Bootcamp, magic trackpad a) does not control cursor and b) does not persist after closing Bluetooth devides dialog.
    Summary of Problem:
    Magic Trackpad is found and paired, but does not control the mouse.
    When you shut the Bluetooth devices and reopen (or reboot and reopen), the device is not listed.
    Detials of problem:
    Bootcamp 3.1 (i cannot find a later one) Windows XP all updates, All Apple Software Updates (to bootcamp and mac os x) installed, Magic Trackpad driver download and installed.
    Control Panel, Bluetooth Devices, Add - it detectes the magic track pad (ie track pad blinking, click add) everytime
    - It asks about a pass code, I have tried it without a pass code and with automatically Generate Passcode; does this setting matter?
    In bluetooth devides, the track pad shows with "Auto Generated passkey" when that is the option selected
    Found new hardware comes up, Apple Wireless Trackpad, everything looks fine.
    - In Bluetooth Devices, it shows the trackpad wiht "no passkey", even when I told it to automatically generate one.
    The track pad does not control the cursor.
    Close Bluetooth Devices and reopen it, or reboot and reopen Bluetooth devices, and the track pad is gone.
    Rebooting does not change the outcome of above.
    I have gone to device manager and tried to update the two (apple & microsoft) Bluetooth drivers with the update button, it says I have the most current.
    I do not see how to tell if the Magic Trackpad driver is installed, so I tried installing it again. It does appear to be listed under HID in device manager.
    I have done a lot of googling, wasted a lot of time, if I cannot get it to work, I will return it to the apple store.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Bob, cannot help directly but I am having a similar problem on my MacBook Pro with Windows 7 Pro. Pretty much the same symptoms except my trackpad is not always recognized - it seems I have to click it to get Bluetooth to see it. Windows claims to have seen it OK on one occasion and installed the drivers, asked for a reboot etc. but the TrackPad still does not respond.
    Works OK on the Mac side although it is not recognized as a separate Bluetooth trackpad which can be configured differently from the built-in. I wonder if this might be a clue?
    I have installed the patch and tried a bunch of other things. Seems like Apple has some work to do sorting out the bugs on both the Mac and Windows side with this device. Pity because its an excellent piece of kit otherwise!

  • My magic trackpad will not work (at all) in Parallels (W7)

    The trackpad works beautifully on my Intel iMac (Lion) 10.7.2, but will not work at all under Windows 7 on Parallels. All latest updates of everything to my knowledge.
    I find no notes on this either on the Parallels site or here. Am i the only one in the universe having this problem. To be clear, there is no response from the pad whatever - nada, bupkis.
    Maybe I have to pair it manually with Windows? That seems odd since everything else works fine that is connected to the iMac.
    Tips, hunches, soothing words?
    Thanks!

    If you downloaded and installed the Windows support software in accordance with the instructions, you now have a diamond shaped icon in the Windows task bar. Clicking this icon opens the Bootcamp control panel where all your trackpad settings can be configured.

  • Trackpad scrolling not working in Muse

    Trackpad for scrolling (Mac) doesn't pan around for plan or design modes in Muse. This does work for Ai, Id, etc. Is this a Muse problem? Is the hand tool (h) the only alternative?

    I use a trackpad on my macbook and my imac, it might not pan left and right but it really is not that big a deal. It doesn't take much effort to drag the scroll bar over. They will fix it when they fix it I guess. If it has been a problem since day one than it must be more than a simple bug fix since they roll out bug fixes and new features ever few months.

  • Magic Mouse scroll not working.

    Has anyone found a solution to the Magic Mouse, not scrolling all of the time after the latest OSX update (10.9).  Tried forgetting the mouse and then reactivating it.  No luck.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot insafe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Trackpad scrolling not working, Windows 7 64 bit

    I'm not sure if it's just a crappy driver on Apple's part or what. I'm using an early 2011 MacBook Pro 13" with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. The trackpad works well most of the time, but sometimes the trackpad loses two finger scrolling and right click. It normally happens when it's resuming from sleep and also when plugging a USB mouse. Any help would be great.

    I have exactly the same on 2011 MBP 13, with Windows 7 Pro 32 bit under bootcamp. I also lose a bluetooth attached mouse in same circumstances.
    Does not happen on OSX on the same machine.
    Any help anyone???

  • Mac 10.9 trackpad scroll not working - reprise

    Hello,
    This is a reprise of the bug show here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/976644
    My trackpad today started to randomly stop being able to two finger scroll up or down. Like the OP I found exiting and entering temporarily restores scrolling for a short time. I'm unsure how to fix this. Am I alone, or is anyone else having this same issue?
    I have a late 2013 Macbook Pro using OSX 10.9.3 and Firefox 30.

    I had this issue a few months back, and its just came back again. It's need an ongoing issue for a number of years I'm just amazed it is still a problem that neither Apple or Mozilla are able to fix.

  • Magic Trackpad won't work with Magic Mouse on brand new 2011 27" i5 iMac

    I have a brand new 2011 27" i5 iMac which I bought with Snow Leopard pre-loaded. Naturally, I included the new Magic Trackpad in my purchase, and though there were some problems with the device in SL - such as it going haywire without explanation - it generally worked, although battery levels were erratic (one day 80%, then an hour later 42%, then 80% again).
    When I installed Lion I did a clean install after backing up to Time Machine - and a Super Dupered external drive. I had some difficulties trying to install Lion from an external flash drive so I deleted again and reinstalled SL, then reinstalled over the SL install I did (with no other software except Mac OS X 10.6.8 and other system updates to facilitate install). Rather than copying apps from my old SL drive, I downloaded fresh copies and reinstalled one by one. I don't use a lot of apps apart from Microsoft Office, browsers and iLife and have not installed any additional scripts, extensions or add-ons (like USB Overdrive). It's a pretty clean install.
    Since then, although I'm generally happy with Lion, the Magic Trackpad won't work! It does work for a little while with basic gestures - mainly moving the cursor and scrolling - then it gives up the ghost and loses connectivity. I have done the following:
    Disconnected and reconnected the MTP after turning it on and off. MTP works for about two minutes, goes crazy then no response.
    Shut the computer down, pulled out the plug, waited two minutes, then started up again. MTP works for about two minutes, goes crazy then no response.
    Run Onyx, shut down computer, then pulled out plug (see above).
    Checked options in Universal Access, shut off "Ignore other devices when trackpad in use" (or whatever the option is). MTP works for about two minutes, goes crazy then no response.
    Turned off the Magic Mouse. MTP works for about two minutes, goes crazy then no response.
    But none of this seems to work! I know the MTP is connected because I can see it in the BT menu in the menu bar and also in System Preferences. I have noticed since upgrading that my permissions - which when I bought the computer were totally clean - now run lines and lines about "Library/Core Services" so I am unsure whether this is related. I also notice a lot of people are in the same boat as me, which makes me wonder if it's either a hardware issue or a release issue - after a week or so of totally silent running, my 2TB Hitachi HDD started up with the grumbly tum. I'd really appreciate any tips from anyone out there!

    Hi, marksaner
    You could try installing the latest version of the Synaptics driver. Synaptics is the company that makes the UltraNav driver and drivers for many other computer brands. This driver should have the same functionality as the UltraNav driver, so there's no worry there. You can find the driver here. 
    Hope it helps,

  • 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
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3603
    for instructions.

    Try resetting the PRAM and SMC.  Try making the device a favorite .

  • My trackpad is not working in bootcamp 4.0 with windows 7

    I just purchased an iMac and upgraded to Lion.  I then created a bootcamp partician and installed Windows 7 Professional.  Everything went smoothly until the trackpad driver was installed.  It failed.  The trackpad will not work.  I have tried to add it through the Bluetooth interface, but I get the eternal circle of **** from Microsoft...Not much of an improvement on the old hourglass of ****.  Anyway, please help get this driver updated for bootcamp so I can use my trackpad.

    I think that has always been a problem at times. though surprised.
    I would assume disabling and then reinstalling or along those lines.
    Uninstall the driver Apple has or see if you can "rollback" in Device Manager.
    Startup items from msconfig would be one place.
    I assume you can do a safe boot / boot from Windows DVD and restore to point prior to this / if you have Snow Leopard use 3.0 thru 3.2 drivers instead

  • My trackpad is not working properly already. Is it eligible for replacement?

    My trackpad is not working properly sometimes and it takes too long for my macbook to open

    Whether your MacBook is legible for a replacement depends on the products warranty...
    When did you purchase the product? Was it a new purchase or a second-hand purchase?

  • My trackpad is not working. Any help?

    This morning my iMac alerted me to change my batteries, which I have done. However, the Trackpad is not working. It is not a problem with the Bluetooth because my keyboard is working just fine. After restarting the computer, I tried turning on the trackpad. The green light did not flash. The Bluetooth Assistance did turn on, however. I cannot access it for obvious reasons. Is there anyway I can set up the Bluetooth using my keyboard?
    I have an old wireless mouse that i used on a computer I owned about four years ago. Will that work?

    Use the tab key to navigate around the Bluetooth Assistance screen and the spacebar to enter/select.
    If the tab key doesn't move to all controls then press Control FN F7   one times and try the tab key again.
