My Pavilion g series laptop touch pad keeps freezing

Hi
My Pavilion g series laptop touch pad keeps freezing - it will release again when I press the 'escape' key'
Thank you for your help

Hello @CamberK,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I have read your post on how your notebook's touchpad keeps freezing, and I would be happy to assist you!
To return the functionality back to your touchpad, I recommend following the steps in this document on Using and Configuring the TouchPad (Windows 7 and Vista). This should help prevent your touchpad from locking up in the future.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

My HP ProBook S-series laptop touch pad mouse does not respond to me

My touch pad responds to my tech guy, to my friends, but not to me! It's like my fingers don't work on it, regardless of the pressure I use or the part of the pad I touch. Other than getting a new set of fingers - which in itself is problematic - what can I do about this? Has anyone else had this problem? It's brand new & this was a problem from the get-go. I had an old Dell latitude D600 & it worked fine for me.
Please help!

Well changing fingers is no easy task so I think we better find another solution. Have you tried other fingers? Also make sure the touchpad has not been locked by firmly tapping the top left section of the pad. This is how you can quickly enable or disable the touchpad.

I'm unable to scroll down the page using laptop touch pad.

My FF was updated automatically. I'm unable to scroll down the page using the laptop touch pad scroll option.
It was working fine on FF before upgrade and after upgrade on IE browser. But, in FF 9 it is not working. Any help is appreciated.

Type '''about:config''' in the address bar and hit Enter key. When you see a warning, click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''' button
-> In the '''Filter bar''', type '''trackpoint'''
* right-click '''ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled''' preference, click '''Modify''' and change the value from '''-1''' to '''0''' (zero) or '''1'''
* click OK
-> Close '''about:config''' tab and Restart Firefox
Check which value (0 or 1) works.
Not related to your problem but do the following:
-> Update Firefox to the latest version 10
* [[Installing Firefox on Windows]]
-> Update All your Firefox Plugins -> https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
* '''When Downloading Plugins Update setup files, Remove Checkmark from Downloading other Optional Softwares with your Plugins (e.g. Toolbars, McAfee, Google Chrome, etc.)'''

After updating to Firefox 7, i've lost scrolling feature on my laptop touch pad

After I updated to Firefox 7, the scrolling feature on the laptop touch pad would not work. My OS is Windows 7. I also updated my other laptop and the same thing happened. That one has Windows Vista as it's OS

Try to modify the pref ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled on the about:config page from the default value -1 to 0 or 1 to see if that makes the scroll pad work.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
*Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)

You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:

Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

You can try resetting your iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

How much free storage space is available on your iPod Touch?
When restoring your iPod Touch with iTunes, did you restore from the backup for the iPod Touch or as a new iPod Touch?
If the former and the problem lies with the data included with the backup, restoring from the backup will also restore the problem putting you right back where you started.

G570 laptop touch pad

I don't know if I'm in the right place. What do they mean by' think' and' idea' topics?
Anyway, I've had problems with my touch pad since I got my laptop. I've tried installing new drivers several times. Each time it works for awhile then the same problems return.
For example, as I am typing this even though I'm staying away from the touchpad, the 'right click' menu keeps opening. but there are many other weird things happening.
The last time I installed the new driver, my laptop completely froze up and I had turn my laptop off and it did not fix anything. in fact it seems like my keyboard is being weird too.
This is getting very old. Isn't there a permanent fix for this problem?

hi maryannebeau,
Welcome to the Lenovo Community.
If you're navigating around and suddenly you get a right click context menu suddenly pops-up without doing a physical right click, try to do the following:
1. Uninstall the Synaptics / Elantech touchpad driver under Start > Control Panel > Programs > Uninstall a Program and restart the PC (this will use the built-in Microsoft Touchpad Driver)
2. After the reboot, open Device Manager (click Start > type Device Manager) and under Mice and Other Pointing Devices, make sure it's not set to Lenovo Pointing Device, otherwise uninstall the driver and reboot.
If the issue persists after using the microsoft touchpad driver, then the Touchpad / Touchpad Board and/or Touchpad cable needs to be replaced as there's a short between the said parts and you need to contact Lenovo for service. Support phone list here.
Hope this helps.

Touch pad keeps disabled when windows starts on Equium

The touch pad on my laptop keeps disabled every time I start up my computer, I noticed that an icon appears in my task bar which is the same picture on my F9 key of the circular cross over the touch pad, however once I press Fn+F9 keys the touch pad works fine until I start up the laptop again

If you have some problems with the notebook shuts down procedure so possibly it happens because some programs and applications are running in the background of the OS and cannot be disabled.
Mostly reinstallation of such application could solve such issues.
Im not 100% sure if it will help to solve the touchpad issue but try to reinstall the touchpad driver and the utility. Check the Toshiba page for updates.
Furthermore you could check the settings of the touchpad in the control panel in the mouse option
