No "trackpad" tab in Bootcamp 2.1 control panel

I want to enable "tap to click" for the trackpad but there is no Trackpad tab in the bootcamp control panel. I see only Startup Disk, Brightness, Remote, Keyboard, and Power.
My system is Macbook4,1 early 2008, winxp pro sp3. All bootcamp drivers are installed including Multitouch, Multitouch mouse, Trackpad, Trackpad Enabler.
Please help...

I got the "trackpad" tab to show up after installing Boot Camp from my Snow Leopard disk rather than my old Macbook install discs. I have the early 2008 white Macbook model (4,1). I tried the trackpad download from Apple and got the "this update is not intended for this computer" popup, but now single tap and two-finger tap for right-click work perfectly in Windows Xp after the Boot Camp install from the Snow Leopard disc.
Hope this helps.
EDIT: I should also note that my About Boot Camp screen shows v3.0 so maybe Apple will release another Boot Camp update for download?

  • Can't get Ultranav Tab to show up in Control Panel

    Hi,
    on my T61 (7663-13G) with Windows 7 64-bit, I don't seem able to get the Ultranav tab to show up under "Mouse" in the Control Panel and thus am unable to edit the touchpad settings. My goal is to enable scrolling with my touchpad.
    I tried reinstalling the newest Ultranav drivers for my OS ( http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-66898 ) as well as the Utility a couple of times, in vain. The problem persists.
    I've tried a few tips I found on related articles in Google, but nothing helped.
    When reinstalling, I use the x64 driver since my system is 64-bit.
    If you know about this problem and how to solve it (under a system similar to mine), I'd be glad to hear about it.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    It's possible that the IntelliPoint driver did not properly uninstall itself.  Before I went down that road, I would try this:
    1) Uninstall both the UltraNav Driver and UltraNav Utility.
    2) In the driver tab of the mouse properties in device manager, look to see if the roll back driver option is available.
    3) If it is, do not roll back the driver but instead uninstall it and check the box to delete the driver software.
    4) Repeat the process until the roll back driver option is not available, at which point you should be back to the generic driver that Windows 7 originally installed.
    5) Install the UltraNav Driver from the top directory rather than the .\WinWDF\x64 directory (my best guess based on your original post).  You could be missing part of Lenovo's customization process by using the subdirectory.
    6) If everything is working as it should, install the UltraNav Utility for easier access to the UltraNav functions.

  • Bootcamp error in control panel windows 7

    After installing parallels 7 I couldn't boot into bootcamp anymore, why?

    I'm still playing with my Parallels on 10.6 so it I remember right you have to "log out" completely out of Parallels. I can't remember the name but it sounds like you are using the "Desktop" emulator. It let's you stay in the Mac desktop and are able to just use the Windows applications in the background just like the Apple ones. The other way is to completely emulate Windows and have the Mac separate. You have to be able see the Windows hard drive (via Boot Camp) in or on the desktop in order to boot into Windows. You should be able to see both the "Mac HD" (or whatever you named it) and the "BOOTCAMP" hard drive icons.
    Take a look at the manual and it should give you more information or go to the Parallels web site and they would have a better answer.
    Hope that helped..

  • Missing Trackpad Tab

    I recently had to recreate my Boot Camp partition and reinstalled Windows XP. I have a 15 in. Core Duo Macbook Pro (April 2006) and used the Leopard Disk that came in the Mac Box Set to reinstall my Boot Camp Drivers (Version 2.1). After the Boot Camp drivers were installed, I upgraded to WinXP SP3.
    When I open my Boot Camp Control Panel, I don't have a trackpad tab (all the other tabs are ok). My trackpad works fine but I want to be able to "tap to click". Without the trackpad tab in the Boot Camp control panel, I'm unable to enable that option as stated in the Boot Camp help file.
    Thanks for your help!

    For all those that lost their Trackpad tab on the bootcamp control panel after the 2.1 trackpad update...
    The quick fix until Apple decides to do something about the issue is to roll back to the previous trackpad drivers. At least it worked for me... :/
    In the windows device managed (right click on my computer -> manage -> device manager) look under "Human Interface Devices".
    You should have "Apple Multitouch" and "Apple Multitouch Mouse".
    Double click "Apple Multitouch". Go to the "Driver" tab and Click "Roll Back Driver" (Obviously only if you had the old 2.1.2.100 driver installed and you updated to the new drivers recently... Otherwise the button will be greyed out and you're out of luck. Try downloading the old drivers and update that driver manually).
    After it will finish, it's not even necessary to reload the boot camp control panel. The tab will appear immediately.
    Hope it helps someone else, since apple dropped the ball on this one in my opinion.

  • Bootcamp drivers installed but do not load control panel in XP

    I have a 13' Aluminum Macbook (5,1) w/ 2GB ram and 160GB HD. I recently install Windows XP in Bootcamp on a 32GB partition converted to NTFS during install. Once installed I installed the bootcamp drivers from my Leopard DVD that came with the laptop. After the restart the bootcamp drivers and control panel loaded fine. After that, I updated XP (SP3 was included on the CD) to get the current security updates and IE7, etc. I proceeded to install Google Chrome. After my next restart, excluding the two required during windows updates, the control panel and bluetooth control panel do not load. Everything else still works and my mouse still identifies with bluetooth. However I do not have any control over trackpad settings and everything else the bootcamp panel allows you to do. As well my wireless card will not connect to my Airport Express with WPA2.
    The wierd thing for me is this is not my first XP install. I did it once before and had no issues whatsoever. I did everything in the same sequence with the same XP CD and key. The only difference is that before the partition was considerably smaller (10GB).
    Any ideas?

    My Program (in Vista) is \Program Files\BootCamp\KbdMgr.exe product version 2.1
    Press Start icon on left side of task bar,select Run typing msconfig
    brings up system configuration
    a) under Start Up tab, what you need, Boot Camp etc. should be checked
    b) under Services tab, Apple, BTH items should be checked and running. If checked and not running, right click My Computer->Manage->Services and Applications->Services. Here you can right click Apple,BTH services to set properties Auto & Start

  • Trackpad settings for bootcamp drive

    hello....i have a windows partition on my macbook air.
    i have downloaded all the necessary drivers needed for the bootcamp.
    howsoever need assistance to make required changes in the settings of the tracpad as the right click option is not working as of now.
    could anyone please assist what is to be done?

    Howdy webhansali,
    To use the right click option you set a particular corner to be the right click, or two finger click.
    Boot Camp: Right-click with a mouse or trackpad
    Using a trackpad: There are two ways you can right-click; you can choose which ones are available in the Trackpad pane of the Boot Camp control panel.
    If Secondary Click is selected in the One Finger section, click the selected corner of the trackpad.
    If Secondary Click is selected in the Two Finger section, place two fingers on the trackpad, then click.
    Details on the setting are found here:
    Boot Camp: Set trackpad options
    And I take it by saying you downloaded all the necessary drivers, that means you downloaded and installed them.
    Boot Camp: Install or repair Boot Camp drivers
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

  • Bootcamp Control Panel Gone (Windows 7 System Tray)

    After I installed Windows 7 64-bit using bootcamp, I had a system tray icon for the Bootcamp Control Panel. It recently disappeared and I can't get it to appear back. Without the control panel running properly, it looks like the volume keys, backlit keyboard, etc don't work anymore in Windows.
    I have tried the things I could find in these forums and through online searches but nothing has worked:
    1) Uninstall and then reinstall Bootcamp drivers and controll panel program using the OSX install DVD. I installed "Boot Camp Update for MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2010) (Windows 64 bit)"
    2) Using msconfig to confirm Bootcamp was in the start up program list (it was already in the list so I unchecked it, rebooted, then checked it again, an rebooted)
    3) Running Bootcamp.exe in Windows Vista compatibility mode
    4) Checking my registry for the entry being there correctly (it was)
    5) Customising the "notification area icons" to make bootcamp have the "Show icon and notifications" behavior.
    None of these things worked. For additional information, I see that Bootcamp.exe is in the Windows task manager process list so it seems to be running.
    How anyone found a solution to get the control panel system tray working again?
    Thank you!

    Hi Flying High,
    Thanks for the response. The little gray square for the Boot Camp Manager has shown up in the notification area before (accessible through the little arrow on the right side of the screen), but the problem is that it doesn't show up anymore.
    I just tried uninstalling Boot Camp and all the drivers, and then reinstalling it again from the DVD and using the "Boot Camp Update for MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2010 (Windows 64 bit)"...
    The little gray square for the Boot Camp Manager showed up after the first reboot and the function keys worked (like volume control), but when I rebooted again, the notification manager didn't show up and none of the function keys work anymore. So back to square one.
    Has anyone had this problem with the Boot Camp Manager showing up in the notification ares only after the initial installation but not after reboots?
    Thank you!

  • Missing tabs in Boot Camp Control Panel

    Hi all,
    I recently just finished an installation of x64 Windows 7 on my Macbook Air. My problem started with me realising I couldn't use the volume/brightness/etc buttons on the keyboard to control those functions, they simply acted as F1, F2, F3 etc. I opened the Boot Camp Control Panel to change this but noticed I only had two tabs, labelled 'Startup Disk' and 'Brightness'. I know for a fact there should be more than two tabs in the Boot Camp Control Panel but I have no idea why they aren't there. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    I've solved the problem.
    The Boot Camp Support Software I orginally ran was downloaded straight from the Apple website so I thought it must be ok, but just to be sure I went back into OS X and downloaded it through the Boot Camp Assistant, switched back to Windows, installed it and everything game out fine! There must have been something Apple put into the software through Boot Camp but not their own site. All the tabs were there, the volume/brightness buttons worked etc.

  • Sound Blaster Z Control Panel - does it need to be in startup?

    Hey gang,
    I built a new system this past week and put a new Sound Blaster Z card in it - which I am very thrilled with. I ran this new system for about 3 days with the onboard Real Tech sound, which at the time I thought was pretty good - till I put this new card in. Really liking it so far.
    My question has to do with the Sound Blaster Control Panel, showing as a startup item. I have the option " start sound blaster Z control panel at startup " unchecked.
    However in task manager startup tab, it shows Sound Blaster Control Panel as a startup item. It does show the sound blaster control panel listed as running in the processes tab of task manager using app 45mb of ram.
    Does this process need to be running or can I disable it? Maybe it needs to be running to process sound with the settings I have chosen in the control panel?
    Just curious, thanks for any tips on this.
    - Don

    And of course now that I have asked the question, the last couple of times I have booted and checked, that is not the case - the Sound Blaster Control Panel is not showing as a running process...
    The only items I see as running processes for this card in task manager now are:
    Creative Audio Service
    SoundBlaster Audio Service
    Strange, but I can live with that .

  • I am trying to download the newest Itunes to windows 7. I did have a previous version that I used the control panel to delete. When I click on download, I get a small partial window in the upper left corner showing Internet Explorer Cannot Display the Web

    I did have a previous version of Itunes and Quicktime that I used the control panel Uninstall to remove. When I do the download, I get a small window in the upper left saying Internet Explorer Cannot Display Webpage. It is trying to get to ....itunes64setup.  I did check to see that all old Apple directorories, etc have been delete. Help!

    Okay. Let's see if you've acquired some kind of restriction for the download site. These settings checks/changes apply to the IE downloads, so we'll be trying to use IE again.
    Head into your Internet Options control panel, and click the Security tab. Click Restricted Sites.
    Check to see if the following website is listed as a restricted site:
    appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net
    If it is, remove it from your list of restricted sites and try another download.
    If still no joy, head back into the security tab of the Internet Options control panel. Click Trusted Sites this time. Click the "Sites" button.
    Add appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net as a trusted site. Uncheck the "Require server verification" box. Now click OK and try another download.

  • No 'Keyboard' tab on boot camp control panel - MBP Jun 2009 + Windows 7100

    I've been trying for 2 weeks now to get the function keys to work on my MBP (bought Jun 2009) using Windows 7 Build 7100.
    This is the 3 ghz MBP with 256gig ssd. Boot camp partitoned fine, windows 7 installed ok, and boot camp ran fine as well. I even downloaded the 2.1 boot camp update and reinstalled the drivers.
    The thing is no matter what i do, the keyboard function keys dont work. And i've noticed that the Keyboard tab does not appear on the Boot Camp control panel. The dvd eject button doesnt work either, the sound not working, and also the trackpad is a bit jumpy.
    I've researched a lot already for this problem, and it seems people do get Windows 7 to work find on a MBP (even with Vista drivers) so i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong. Any help would be much appreciated.
    The machine itself by the way is incredibly quick under Windows 7. Everything is pretty much instant. What a pleasure:)

    I've solved the problem.

    Hi
    Go to System preferances > Universal Access > Mouse or Mousie and trackpad > and turn your Mouse keys off.
    Then disconnect and reconnect your keyboard.
    Note that you don't open your mouse under hardware in System Preferances, this is for a whole different group of settings
    Hope This helps

  • How do I call a LabView VI via dll to display its control panel in a tab of my uir in LabWindows

    Hi User Community,
    I am trying to build a LabWindows Top Level Control Panel to call individual LabView VI's, which have been compiled into a dll.
    I have no problem using the CmtScheduleThreadPoolFunction to start a new thread that calls these VI's however, I'm having trouble trying to get the display that comes up in it's own window to display in a tab of my existing UIR.
    I've compiled the DLLs to always display the VI Control Panel window when running - and usually it covers the whole screen you can't see the LabWindows window until the VI completes.
    Is there a definitive guide to LabWindows Windows/Panels/Tabs? Or does anyone have experience with this? Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello,
    I would suggest reviewing the Programming with Panels and Programming with Tabs CVI Help documents.  I think that this can be done with the LoadPanelEx function.  Let me know how it goes!
    As well, I found some example code to get you started.
