My mouse pad is not working

My mouse pad is not working on my hp pavilion g6. The orange light that is usually on is not working and I've tried everything I can think of! I've already double tapped the small circle at the top left corner on the pad. It simply will not work. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.
Thanks

Hi,
Can you post back with the following details.
1.  The full Model No. and Product No. of your notebook - see Here for a guide on locating this information.

    Help! My Mouse pad is not working properly. The arrow cannot be controlled, it just keeps jumping all over the page. How can I stop this?

    There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not apply in your case.
    1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
    2. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and in that case the unit must be serviced or replaced.
    3. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
    4. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
    5. Reset the System Management Controller.
    6. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
    7. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
    8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to  behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
    9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
    10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
    11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

  • G70-250US notebook synaptics mouse pad will not work & keyboard will only work until I log onto pc

    I have a G70-250US model notebook with Vista 32. I decided to reload OS due to issues with mouse pad and keyboard. I still have the same problem whereby the mouse pad will not work and keyboard will only work until I log in and then it will not work.  External mouse and keyboard will work fine.  I tried uninistalling drivers for both and rebooting and letting OS find new hardware and install the drivers and this still did not correct.  I even pulled down the synaptics driver from HP site and still not working.  I checked the BIOS and it is the most recent. I am at a loss. Any ideas on these issues. 

    Ok I tested a bunch of different Firefoxes on my pos linux box.
    '''''Worked with xmodmap:'''''
    Vanilla 16.0.2,
    Vanilla 16.0B6,
    Ubuntu Firefox 16.0.2 (16.0.2+build1-0ubuntu0.10.04.1)
    '''''Did Not Work with xmodmap:'''''
    Vanilla 17.0.1,
    Ubuntu Firefox 17.0.1 (17.0+build2-0ubuntu0.10.04.1)
    I have an old Dell Dimension 2400 I plan to use as a replacement for the Sony Vaio when it pops. I've held out as long as possible because it lacks a pci or usb wifi and I really didn't want to run 50 feet of cat5 up a flight of stairs to it. [as i type this i think i remember where a linksys stick for it might be]. Yes I guess it's about time I just do that.
    Don't laugh but the reason I held off adding a simple usb keyboard was just lack of space in my tiny bedroom. My setup is on two tray tables side-by-side. Sony Vaio is on left one, my lcd monitor and mouse are on the other. I barely have room to put a cup of coffee on the one with monitor and mouse let alone a full size usb keyboard lol.
    Anyway thank you again for all your help.

  • I have the macBookPro and the problem is the mouse pad does not work I tried everything but still does not work what should i do ?

    I have the macBookPro and the problem is the mouse pad does not work I tried everything but still does not work what should i do ?
    so i'm using the usb mouse

    I want to clarify the issue.
    The issue is with the MBP trackpad, and it works fine with an attached USB mouse.
    With some ingenuity, you might be able to fix this yourself, but I suggest visiting your local Apple Store/Genius Bar. Some have fixed this issue and have posted their results online, but the Apple Store should be your first destination.
    Post here with your results!!

  • Mouse Pad is not working properly while plugged in of Probook 4530s Notebook????

    1. Product Name and Number
    HP Probook 4530s (Intel Core i5). RAM 6 GB, Hard 750 Gb, Radeon 1 GB card,
    Mouse PAD configs ............Synaptics luxpad v7.5,,,,,,,,and........Synaptics luxpad buttons v7.5
     Operating System installed: 
    Windows 7 64 bit Proffessional.
    Everytime I plug in the charger, the mouspad starts hanging................What is that........???? Sometimes it stops working at all..............One thing to note is that right and left click buttons are working fine.........
    Any suggestions......???

    By hanging do you mean it just gets very slow to respond? This only happens when you plug in the charger? I would make sure all your drivers are up to date. Do this happen when the computer is running off battery?
    Thanks

  • Keyboard and mouse pad do not work; authorised service?

    the keyboard and mouse pad on my new macbook (3 weeks old)have stopped responding. I have tried everything to restore it except reinstalling the operating system. The disk utility and hardware test do not show any problems, and when I attach an external mouse and keyboard the computer works just fine. Can this problem be anything other than a faulty connection or lose wire?
    I live in Venezuela and will have major problems getting the mac back to the US (where it was purchased) for service. Apparently there are "authorised service providers" here in caracas; does that mean they can work on my mac without me losing the warranty?
    thanks for any help..

    Huh...I've never managed to do what you have, so I'm a bit out of ideas...
    That being said, if a customer brought me a machine in that condition, I'd boot from a "live" Linux CD, save all important data on an external drive, wipe the HD clean and install a fresh OS.
    Good luck.

  • HP G62 keyboard mouse pad does not work in Windows, works in BIOS

    Attaching USB mouse and keyboard works, however Restoring to last known good settings, System Restore, Removing battery and holding power for one minute, etc. None of this works.  When I look in Device Manager I see no issues there.  What is the next step?  I feel like I've tried everything recommended!

    try to download and install the updated driver/sw of the touchpad from the support website.

    Hi Epco_yangchao,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
    As per the query we understood that you are facing an issue with Touchpad on your ThinkPad T440p.
    Boot the system in safe mode and work for a while to confirm if it is working in safe mode.
    Uninstall UltraNav application for Control panel – Program and feature option and restart the system and check if you’re able to see any adapter in Device Manager under Mouse adapter.
    Hope this helps.
    Best regards,

  • Glide pad will not work after formatting g60-630ca

    Can somebody help? my glide pad will not work after downgrading to xp.  The pad works itself for the mouse but then the scrolls on the side will not.  Please help...

    You need the driver. It is a Synaptics Touchpad and you can use this driver:
    Synaptics
    Here is a link to the General XP Downgrade guide which has a link to all the drivers you need under "Moderate models:
    XP Guide
    The touchpad is hard because Windows does load a basic driver so it does not appear with an error in Device Manager, but the "real" driver is needed for advanced features like scrolling. Be sure you have all the needed Xp drivers, by the way.

  • Keyboard and Mouse pad don't work.

    Can anyone help me? I figured I should come here before bringing it to a shop.
    I have upgarded my ram from 2gigs to 4gigs with Crucial ram.
    Though regardless if I have the new ram or old ram in, my keyboard and mouse pad don't work. There were occasions before when the keyboard would lock up for a short while, but I have no idea what's causing this.
    My only thought would be that sometimes my computer would get unusually hot, but i just turn it off when that happens.
    Everything else works fine, the USB ports work with keyboards and mouse's, the power chord works fine, there seems nothing wrong with the battery or display.
    Thanks you for any help.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Has your keyboard and mouse quit working altogether or just when the computer is hot? And do I understand that an external keyboard and mouse will work with no problems?
    And I am wondering about your computer running unusually hot. Are your fans operating properly? You might want to run the extended version of the Apple Hardware test to be sure that the fans and thermal sensors are working properly. If they are not, you will get one or more error codes.
    Another thing to do to check when your Mac is unusually hot is the Activity Monitor. Select "All Processes" at the top right and check for any process running that should not be which is using lots of CPU.
    I don't know if the keyboard problem is related to the heat problem or not, but I would want to know what is causing the heat problem too. Over time, excessive heat can cause damage to the logic board. It could also conceivably damage the ribbon cable which connects the keyboard and I would guess that the trackpad could also be affected. So it is important to see what is going on here. If you have been experiencing excessive heat on a regular basis, this might be the underlying cause of your keyboard and trackpad problems. If so, the heat problem will have to be fixed or the other problem will recur over time.
    Try the AHT and post back with any results. Also, use iStatPro to check on your fans and make sure both are running at roughly equal speeds and that they run faster when the computer gets hot.
    Good luck!

  • My Hp Pavllion dv7 keyboard and touch pad will not work

    Hi. My Hp Pavllion dv7 keyboard and touch pad will not work. Been going on for a few months now. Read in the support forum that replacing the battery might help however it hasnt. Ran updates for Windows Vista and Microsoft Security Ess. Boots up just fine however unable to place in my password to get to my user profile and always have to work from guest......unless I have a USB keyboard handly at the time. I use a USB wireless mouse as well.
    Please help and thank you

    The keyboard and mouse (touchpad) are separate devices which could go bad at the same time but that would be a huge coincidence. I would try reseating the ribbon cables to the motherboard for both. Here is the Service Manual:

  • Firefox did an automatic update to 6.01, and now my middle mouse button is not working in the browser. It doesn't close tabs, it doesn't open new tabs by middle clicking a link, it doesn't allow me to middle click to scroll the page...

    Firefox did an automatic update to 6.01, and now my middle mouse button is not working in the browser. It doesn't close tabs, it doesn't open new tabs by middle clicking a link, it doesn't allow me to middle click to scroll the page..

    [BUG FIXED, see "EDIT 2" at the end of my post]
    I'm on Firefox 3.6.21, and I got this problem today after a Greasemonkey update (To version 0.9.10, apparently).
    Disabling Greasemonkey solved the problem, and re-enabling it reproduced the problem (middle-clicking links to open in new tab did not work, merely highlighted the link).
    I should also note that while Greasemonkey was enabled and the bug was affecting me, Ctrl+Click to open links in new tabs was also broken.
    I hope this helps!
    EDIT: It appears this is a known incompatibility/conflict bug between current versions of Greasemonkey and Tab Mix Plus. Read more here:
    https://github.com/greasemonkey/greasemonkey/issues/1406
    EDIT 2: GREASEMONKEY HAS NOW BEEN UPDATED with a workaround to fix the problem. Go to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/versions/ to install the update manually. It hasn't been reviewed by Mozilla yet, so it won't be an automatic update for another day or two. All credit to "cannonfodder" below for noticing this; please mark his post as helpful!

  • HT203171 My curser pad is not working and the curser is going crazy.  I have tried all of the above but it still does not work

    My curser pad is not working and the curser is going crazy.  I have tried everything and it still does not work?

    I don't know what other solutions you've tried but on mine it was like a "Ghost in the Machine" (moving around and clicking on things on its own) and all I did to fix it was to lightly dampen a cotton ball with window cleaner (evaporates) and clean firmly around the inside edge of the pad and to also click it firmly quickly and many times to clean out ANY kind of dust or debris that has fallen into the cracks. worked GREAT for me , so far!!???
