Notification Center two finger slide not working

The slide bar thing on the right of the computer wont open fully. It definitely gets activated so it's not completely frozen, but it wont fully open or fully close. Any thoughts on how to fix this?

Spotted this and it solved the problem,

Windows 8.1 two finger gestures not working

After I updated to windows 8.1 from windows 8 yesterday, none of my two finger gestures are working. (e.g. two finger scroll, two finger click, or zoom) I tried updating my Synaptics driver and nothing has changed. I still can not use any of my two finger gestures. One finger scrolling is working properly but the two finger gestures are my favorite. All my gestures worked fine until I updated to windows 8.1...
Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this?
Please help!

Hello HelpMe0,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand two-finger prompts are not working since upgrading to Windows 8.1. I will do my best to help, but first, I require the computer's model number. If you require assistance locating this information, please reference this website: Guide to finding your product number
Thanks!

Magic Mouse - Two Finger Swipe not working in Finder + iTunes

Hello,
since OSX 10.8 I realized that in Finder & iTunes the backward/forward navigation has stopped working with Magic Mouse (two-finger-swipe gesture).
I have already read a lot of forums as well as apple-discussions and didn't find a solution apart from MagicPrefs or any other 3rd-party-app.
Is that a bug or just not meant to work? Does anybody know why Apple stopped providing this - very useful - gesture?
Thank you for your time and have a perfect day
Sascha

Pual_31 suggested good advise...
I would also recommend if that does not work, to reboot and run "repair permissions" from Disk Utilities.
Also might suggest downloading and trying MagicPrefs, it's a free program for the Magic Mouse and it really works great. May help with your problem, may not but I'd give it a try.

Trackpad Problems: Two-Finger Sometimes Not Working

This is a recent problem I've been having that's just surfaced only this week.
Every now and then, as I'm two-finger scrolling, the trackpad will register only one finger, consequently moving the mouse only. Settings are alright, otherwise two-finger scrolling wouldn't be working at all. It works, but sometimes it does not.

Sometimes recalcitrant trackpads can be corrected by a very through cleaning of the trackpad. See if that is the cure.
This could be it. I am using a protector film, but it's the same sheet that I've been using since 2009. The film could be deterioating. I will remove it and check. I hope the trackpad is not susceptible to staining over time...
If not, open the MBP and see if the battery has swollen and is interfering with the trackpad.
Good to know, though not likely not the case as the battery was recently changed.

T430s Two finger scroll not working reliably

Hi!
Sometimes it works, sometimes it takes the skin of my fingers to get two finger scroll working.
The system update does not see a reason to update the drivers.
Is there more effective software for the synaptic touchpad to do two finger scroll?

Hi, theking2
System Update is a very useful tool, but I find it best to always check for driver updates manually, just in case the updater missed something. The latest version of the Syanptics driver can be found here and may help your issue.
Hope it helps,
Adam

Two finger scroll not working in Microsoft Word for Mac

Just finished installing Yosemite today and haven't had any real issues...however, I've noticed that two-finger scrolling doesn't work in Microsoft Word for mac. It works fine in many other applications (including other Microsoft apps--Excel & PowerPoint), but not Word.
I've looked for any scrolling options that may be "unchecked" in the preferences, but haven't found any.

I'm having the same issue. However, I have restarted and it still won't work. This is extremely frustrating as I have the latest updates and everything but it doesn't work and I keep forgetting every time I try to scroll.
I'm also having the issue of whenever my Mac goes to sleep or if I turn it off, the log in screen says there are updates necessary. I feel like this is a bug because I've updated my computer like 20 times in the past few days...

Windows 8 two-finger-scrolling not working properly

Two-Finger Scrolling in Windows 8 doesn't seem to work properly on my U300S Synaptics trackpad.
Instead of just scrolling through the tiles or app on the Windows 8(.1) startscreen, individual apps are higlighted and scrolled through like when I use the arrow-keys on a regular keyboard.
Also, in the metro version of Internet Explorer you should be able to move back and forth in the browser history by horizontally doing a two-finger-scroll gesture.
Do I have to install anything besides the Synpatics driver to get this to work properly?

I am having similar problems, although I don't have the zoom issue- it is simply not scrolling. very frustrating when you are accustomed to this method. My resolution was also reset, but I don't find that as much of an issue- the scrolling I can't fix.

Two Finger Scroll Not Working on my Inspiron 3543

It's been just a month since I bought my new lappy. Usually when I start it up, the two finger scroll works just fine in the Start menu of Windows 8.1.
But after about 10 minutes or so, when I press Start for something, and try scrolling with the two fingers... BAMM !!!! It's futile. Nothing happens whatsoever.
Please help. All responses appreciated.

Hey,
First of all... Thank you for replying. I don't remember any specific update but, the Windows action center keeps downloading some additional updates if that's what you are referring to. And I also tried to update my touchpad driver, but it says that it is already up to date.
Regarding the Dell TouchPad properties, I already tried that and it is configured as per my convenience. Yet it goes through the same error.
Thank you again for suggesting.

Notification center direct status post not working , what to do?

see this vid n u'll know my problem

have already tried repairing permissions

Are you sure your name isn't Tolstoy? <grin> I often ask people for more information but yours is one of the first posts that has way too much information.
You obviously didn't read the material that came with your iPod. The battery of the iPod will slowly discharge over time because even when it appears off it is really in 'deep hibernation' mode. Since the iPod has a clock, the cpu continues to operate just a little bit to keep the clock running.
For now, keep the iPod connected to power (your charger or connected to the computer) and let it fully recharge. (If you are charging it at the computer make sure you don't let the computer go to sleep. A sleeping computer doesn't charge an iPod.)
Once the iPod is fully charged see if it now works. If not, reset it. If that doesn't do it, come back and tell us what you see on the iPods screen.

After 10.9.4 Update, two finger scrolling not working in any App

I have all the right settings selected in System Preferences. Tried restarting the computer a couple times. I can't figure out why it is happening. Thanks for the help!

Go to system preferences, trackpad. Then go to point and click and make sure tap to click is ticked. It worked for me.

Flex 2 14 - Two finger tap for Right-Click not working (Two finger double tap works)

I bought my Flex 2 14 a couple of weeks back.
I want to enable Two-finger tap (not click) for right click.. Unfortunately it does not work.
Weirdly, Two-finger DOUBLE tap works for right click..
How do I get a two-finger tap?
I tried the regitry hacks from here (https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Yoga-Flex-Laptops-and/Yoga-2-Pro-Two-finger-tap-does-not-work/td-p/1406... but no luck yet.
Any help please.

I have found a solution but I am still annoyed I had to do my own tech work to get a common touch figure enabled. (By the way there's many threads out there on Synpatics drivers and touchpads not working right for many people on different machines.)
Anyway, indeed the fastest fix is to modify a registry entry for Synaptics. Just open the regisitry edit software on the Yoga and then go through the folders: HKEY LOCAL / Software / Synaptics / SynTP / Win8
In "2FingerTapAction" all you need is to change the value from "0" to "2" - and presto two-finger tap is now a right click!
Much easier than going through a driver install / uninstall routine or any other of the suggestions I've found out there.
I wish Lenovo had this set up as a default. It's really a great gesture and it's quiet and fast.

Two finger slide acting up in Word doc

So, here is what happens.
If I am in a word doc, my two finger slide works fine until I click anywhere in the document.
Then, if I try to do the slide, it will not work until I click on the document at least one or two times. The slide works normally again until I type something.
I tried changing some preferences with the mouse and track pad but to no avail.
Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thank you.

You might need to give us just a little more information. Which version of Microsoft Office do you have? 2004? 2008? 2007 running in Windows under Boot Camp? Or maybe 2003 running in Windows under Paralells? Are you actually using Microsoft Word to open your "word doc"? (You didn't actually specify that you were using Microsoft Word.) Or are you using Pages from iWork? Which version of Pages?
Also, which direction are you swiping? Up and down to scroll? Left to right to move around the document? What is that your application stops doing?

27" iMac i7, two finger slide funcionality lost after the software update

I have the latest 27" iMac bought on late December.
However, after installing the Apple's official software update, the two finger slide functionality on the Magic mouse got lost. The only remedy appears to be restarting the iMac.
Has anyone experienced the same?

Slider not working around 50% of the time.

Hello,
Slider not working around 50% of the time when I get a call. I hit the sleep button and home button several times and then it works.
I've done the soft reset several times. I've restored settings completely 2 times.
the screen is clean, my hands are clean, the wifi is off, the phone has not been dropped, it only happens when receiving a call and never happens when I'm just turing it on to access the menu. Bluetooth is off as well.
Any ideas?

this happened to me a week or so after buying my iPhone. Fixed it with a reboot... Simul holding home and on/off until apple appears on the screen . Been working for axweek ok now.
