Macbook Air Late 2010 model, 10.6.7, 2.13 4g ram. Trackpad is not working properly and in sometimes not at all. Need suggestions to resolve this issue? I have applied all Mac updates and still having problems with the trackpad.

The machine has a 1 year warranty, book an appointment with your local Apple Store or AASP to have it looked at.
You can try doing a SMC reset however I don't think that is the solution.
SMC RESET
• Shut down the computer.
• Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
• On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-• Option keys and the power button at the same time.
• Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
• Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
• Shut down the computer.
• Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
• Turn on the computer.
• Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
• Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
• Release the keys.

My trackpad is not working properly and my battery won't charge

Hi guys, yesterday my macbook probably suffered electrical shock and now my trackpad is not working properly, it's a bit slow and my battery won't charge. and also ethernet port is not working but wi-fi is , can you help me please ?

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".
If this does not help, you may have to take the computer to the Apple store to have the computer and battery checked out.
Best.

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?

Java 7 updated for 10.7-10.8
Released Feb 1, 2013, fixes 50+ security flaws
http://www.esecurityplanet.com/patches/oracle-responds-to-java-security-flaws-wi th-50-fixes.html
Download and install
https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_mac.xml
For Java versions 6 and below OS X 10.5-10.6 machines
Apple supplies their own version of Java. For Mac OS X 10.6 and below, use the Software Update feature available under the Apple menu to check that you have the most up-to-date version of Java 6 for your Mac.
https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_6.xml
Java SE 6 End of Public Updates
After February 2013, Oracle will no longer post updates of Java SE 6 to its public download sites. We highly recommend downloading and installing Java 7.
If your considering upgrading OS X from 10.6.8 to 10.8 via AppStore to run Java 7
Be forewarned no PowerPC based programs or driver software will run any longer.
Check here BEFORE you upgrade OS X!
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Alternatives if you must run Java 7
If Apple disabled Java 6 in 10.6, and you can't upgrade OS X to 10.8, then your pretty much done with Java in OS X because Oracle won't issue updates for Java 6 anymore.
However you can install Windows 7 and continue to use Java 7+ there until support for Windows 7 ends in 2020.
Windows in BootCamp or Virtual Machine?
If your on 10.6, I very highly recommend the free Virtualbox for the virtual machine software as it gets updates, VMFusion and Parallels have moved on with only 10.7+

My trackpad does not work properly

The trackpad on my macbook pro is not working properly. Sometimes it right clicks by itself or if won't move around properly. How can I fix this?

Check the Apple support page in this link:

Sometimes a through cleaning of the trackpad will solve those issues.
Ciao.

My trackpad is not working properly. It doesn't respond very well and only a very small area of it actually works. What can I do?

Hi! Can anyone help?
This is driving me insane.
I have a MacBook, which still works pretty well apart from the fact that over the last few weeks the trackpad started not responding very well.
I have to hit very hard and it only works on the bottom right corner.
It responds to me moving my fingers over it, the problem only happens when clicking on something.
I would really appreciate any tips from any of you clever people out there.
Thanks

Does your MacBook have a removable battery?
If so, try removing the battery and running just on the power adapter. Don't do anything too important as the computer will power off if the power adapter comes loose! Just do this for a few minutes to see if your trackpad works any better.
If your battery isn't removable, run your hand over the bottom of the computer - or run a level over it if you have one - to see if it's flat.
In either case, it's possible your battery has swollen and is applying pressure on the connection for the trackpad, which in turn means the trackpad won't work as expected.

Cursor arrow gone from solid black to having white lines go through it and trackpad is not working properly in mail and adobe acrobat - anyone know how this could have happened and how to solve it?

Can anyone help me? Concerned that I may have some kind of malware. My cursor arrow and trackpad are behaving strangely, The cursor used to be a solid black arrow but now seems to have horizontal white lines running through it. The trackpad does not function normally either. For example, when I use my trackpad to scroll up and down in mail it sometimes works and sometimes does not. In adobe acrobat it sometimes does not work. In facebook, the cursor does not line up behind the menu keys as it should.
Any one know how this might have happened and how I can stop it?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads 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, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, 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 login 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 (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

MY WIRELES TRACKPAD DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. HOW CAN I REPAIR IT?

THE WIRELESS TRACKPAD DOES NOT DETECT THE DIFERENCE BETWEEN 3 AND 4 FINGERS.
THE PROBLEM STARTED AS SOON AS I INSTALLED OS X LION.

That's a very important component of your phone, tiffanymoyle. Let's see what we can do to get your keyboard back up and running correctly. What issues are you encountering with the keyboard? Do certain letters not register when pressed? Does it make a difference if you turn your phone to function in landscape mode?

Mouse & trackpad is not working properly in flash games

I thought the problem was with my mouse. But even my trackpad behaves weird.
When I try to click this game (http://jayisgames.com/games/red-remover-player-pack-2/) or any other games before, single clicking any clickable spots in the flash game works. But in that game, I could single click on "Play Game," "Ok." "the red face," "Play" & box 1. But from that on, I must double click to make anything work. It's not that game that requires double clicks. I've been playing it for a long time, all only single clicks. From there on, I single click on a red box, nothing happens. Then I click on another spot, that previous click happens.
Not just on that flash game, I've tried many others ones, all gave me this click delaying problem.
When I try to click on spot A, nothing happen. Then I click on spot B, the click on spot A happens. So I must double click on everything to work.
I realize I couldn't single click on anything to work on any flash websites (sample:http://www.mono-1.com/monoface/main.html). Clicking once just highlights the link, must click again to make it work.
Please try out that game to see what I'm talking about. I'm not promoting anything here. I got a serious mouse problem.
Thanks.

Trackpad click not working properly

Hey, I've had my Macbook 1.83ghz for like 6 or 7 months now and I haven't had any major problems up until now.
The Trackpad clicker has recently began to 'stick', it's hard to explain but it doesn't respond as it used to and it takes quite a heavy push now for it to respond, so it's pretty much impossible for me to drag files and work in Photoshop.
I did quite a bit of Googling to try and find similar problems but I only found this solution of using paper to fix it, which didn't work for me.
I noticed a recent post here concerning the recent Battery Update, I thought that might have been the problem I had but it seems it's not as I've just taken on the battery whilst running through the cable. Still getting the problem.
Thanks

Hi,
The best way is to phone AppleCare and ask (UK tel. 0870-876-0753), but otherwise, take it in to any authorised Apple repair centre.
Here's the UK retail store details. Try a search for Apple authorised re-sellers throughout the UK too, assuming that's where you are. All the official Apple retail stores, and all the officially authorised re-sellers (I think) can do the repair for you under warranty.
If you're outside the UK, search the Apple site for info for your area.
Cheers,
Rhys

Syncing in Itunes is not working properly, what do I do?

I have the iPod touch 5g and I tried to put songs in it but then it starts freezing for a whole and then says "restarting syncing" .. I waited a while and the sign is still there. In my iPod I looked into the music app and see that all my songs have that loading symbol that has the stop sign in it. After almost 20 minutes nothing changes and I double click my songs in Itunes and it has the exclamation mark next to it when all my files are in a folder in my computer. This is my third try now and I already tried reinstalling Itunes but it's been the same. Any solutions that you can suggest?

This exclamation mark next to it when all my files are in a folder in my computer. means that ituns can't find the actual music files. Thus, they can't sync to the iPod.
Find the music file/reimport/redownload the songs and try again. Y omay have to do this to get them to sync
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
