Re: Satellite L500D - Touchpad "touch" not working

Hi everyone,
my touchpad's touch function (to emulate left-clik by tapping the touchpad) is not working any more. I can move the mouse with the pad.
Also the left button below the pad is not working - the right one is.
I've already tried :
-Updating the driver
-Fn+F9
-The touchpad settings - the "touch" function is enabled
-The Toshiba hardware test - passed
but with no success.
Not sure whether it's a software issue or a hardware one.
Any suggestions?
Thank,
Andres

Hi
As far as I know the option is called Tap to Click
You should check if this enabled in the touchpad settings.
>Also the left button below the pad is not working - the right one is.
Maybe this has something to do with the fact that the left click by taping is not working
Its hard to say what could cause this
As I said; the options should be checked once again in control panel -> mouse -> device settings -> settings (or properties)
If all the settings would be ok, then a touchpad hardware issue might be possible

  • My Laptop TOUCHPAD [Synaptics​] multi touch not working on startup

    My Laptop is HP Pavilion DV6 - 7040TX
    It is working nicely, I noticed one thing. That the multi touch functionality in the touchpad is not working on Windows start up. (Multi touch - Two finger pinch, there finger ....) ie.  Only single touch is working, I can drag the cursor, select and click.  When I open the Synaptics settings from the Cpanel, the other features are working fine, doesn't make a difference when I closed that settings tab.
    This is my issue, some of my friends bought this very same Laptop and they don't seem to have this problem at all. Please help me out of this.
    - Manoj

    i had the same problem. what solved this for me was to simply go to device manager and under mice and other pointing devices uninstall the touchpad, i had a usb mouse handy just in case i needed it, but then i restarted the laptop and it auto reinstalled touchpad for me and then all options worked on startup.

  • Touchpad is not working properly on Satellite L30-X10

    Hi to all of you.
    I've got the following issue: On my notebook the scroll on the touchpad is not working. If somebody can tell me how to fix this problem it would be kindly appreciated.

    Hi,
    I am not sure if this can be a good solution but maybe its worth to try it:
    1. Download the latest touchpad software from here:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    2. Remove the old software
    3. Reinstall the downloaded software
    4. Go into your mouse properties and check if everything is configured (especially the scroll function)
    Give some feedback in case of further questions..
    Cheers

  • Touchpad Buttons Not Working

    I purchased this Toshiba Satellite C55D-B5102 last week, I installed Windows 10 last night.  After installing Windows 10 the touchpad did not work.  I have since fixed that issue.  However, now the buttons for the touchpad are not working and I'm unable to find a solution to this issue. I am able to use a wireless mouse for functionality, so that helps, however, this is a very hindersome problem...  Any guidance would be much appreciated.

    Hi I´m not sure if this gives any guide but this what I have done to "Win 10 + touchpad problems". I have a Satellite P30 W-B which is brand new. I installed Win 10 yeasterday and my Touchpad didnt work any good after that, I only had the cursor function and a click function working, no right click or so. I checkad all possible solutions here and there and what I finally did was to uninstall the ELAN tocuhpad driver and a ree-start. I thought the touchpad would be dead after that but it works fine! Now its a MS softwere instead automaticly, quite old. Now it works like before. THe ELAN driver came with he Win 10 package. I might have lost some functions incoperated in the ELAN driver like scroll or so but I wont install any new driver unless its working properly with Win 10 so I can wait for that. I hope this can be something for the moment.

  • Z50-70 touchpad is not working - Windows 10

     Hello. I installed Windows 10 to my Z50-70, and now my touchpad is not working. It worked like few hours.My USB mouse works fine. This laptop is new, I bought it 3 weeks ago.  What should I do?  Thank you!

    Just found the same problem with my lenovo Z50. Touch pad completely non responsive. Under start menu, settings, devices, mouse & touchpad, additional mouse options, elan tab. The elan touchpad settings were completely grayed out and unavailable. So from there I went to the window search in the task bar and typed in "computer management " and opened the computer management desktop app. Under device manager selected mice and other pointing devices and then elan input device. In the elan properties window that opened I selected uninstall to uninstall the driver and in the next box that opened warning that the driver was about to be uninstalled  l checked the delete driver and then OK. Then restarted windows. In the process of restarting windows detected the elan touchpad as a new device and installed the driver in time for the login screen. So my elan touch pad is now working again. I am assuming that the driver had been corrupted in the upgrade from Windows 8.1 to 10. I hope that this information is of help to you. Should be a bit easier for you as you have an eternal usb mouse that works, I had to remember the old shortcuts keys from back in the day when the mouse was not that common.       

  • Touchpad does not work even after format - x220t

    Hi there,
    I've had my X220 tablet for about 10 months and it has been great.  For the last month however, the touchpad and touchpoint have become flaky.  When rebooted or coming out of standby, the touchpoint/touchpad often did not work; after resetting a few times, i would work, but then stop working again when the system when into standby mode.
    I thought this was a driver issue, but uninstalling and reinstalling to the newest drivers did nothing.  I have also updated/reset the BIOS.
    I have more recently have not been able to get the touchpad working at all now and relying on just the touchscreen for input is very frustrating. 
    When Windows 8 CP came out this week, I decided to give the computer a fresh format and reinstall Windows --- maybe that would resolve the issue. No luck.  The touchpoint/touchpad did not work even in Windows 8.
    I read around a bit and have tried disabling JUST the touchpad in the BIOS, and amazingly, the touchpoint will work fine when I do that.  When I disable just the touchpoint or leaving both enabled, neither the touchpad or touchpoint will work.
    As far as I can tell from what I have been able to diagnose, the touchpad is damaged and is causing a conflict with the touchpoint when enabled.  I am not sure of this, but it is my belief now.
    Are there solutions out there for me?  I do have 2 months left on my warranty, but I hope to keep mailing my notebook in for support as a last resort.
    thank you,
    steve

    If you are ready to reinstall Windows, try this method:

    If after that your trackpoint/touchpad still don't work, I think one of them (or both) is defective.

  • Satellite L300-215 - Webcam not working

    The webcam on my Satellite L300-215 has not worked since I downloaded the new Toshiba software months ago.
    The Chicony webcam is not even recognised and it will not install the Toshiba software.
    Two hours with Toshiba technical staff, including them having remote access to my computer, did not solve the problem.
    It seems this is a very common problem and I have tried some of the suggestions on postings but with no result.
    Does anybody out there have the answer?

    I have two Toshiba notebooks, Satellite P200D and Satellite A300, both with webcam and everything works well. So I don't agree with statement about very common problem.
    Does webcam works well if your notebook is preinstalled with Toshiba recovery image (factory settings)?
    >I have tried some of the suggestions on postings but with no result.

  • Tecra M3 - touchpad is not working with Windows 7

    I have a Tecra M3 that I have updgraded to Windows 7. The touchpad is not working.
    The Toshiba website does not have Windows 7 drivers for this model. I have tried installing the touchpad driver and TVAP from the A11 model but still cannot get it to work.
    Can anybody help? The audio doesn't seem to be functioning either.

    Hi buddy,
    As Silas wrote, it could be a little bit problematic to find the correct drivers because it doesnt support Vista...
    You should try a touchpad driver from another model like Tecra M4. This should work.
    But Im wondering about this. Basic functions of touchpad should also work without special driver.
    Can you use the touchpad at the moment?

  • Connecting my iphone to wall charger makes my iphone touch not work properly

    I have a iphone 3g and a orignal apple wall charger when i connect my iphone to charger it makes my iphone touch not work properly, but it charges the phone properly.the data cable is also working properly. So can any one help me out here.thanks

    Holy smokes, I thought I was losing my mind, but that's the exact same thing that's started happening to me since this whole 4.3.1 "upgrade" disaster started - hooking it up to the wall charger overnight, wake up in the morning and it's a brick requiring multiple attempts to restart.
    It's also randomly and spontaneously crashing - it'll be on the table or couch beside me, I'll catch movement out of the corner of my eye and look over and see a silver apple.

  • Nokia Lumia 720 Touch not working even after repla...

    Hi ,
    I had bought lumia 720 on 31/05/2013 , but on 28/12/2013 the touch was not working or the touch was working on its own. Since my phone was in warranty then, they replaced the touch free of cost. But again from 20/08/2014 my phone is having the same problem, touch not working. When i showed it to Nokia care, they told that again they need to replace the touch , it will cost around Rs. 7950 (since my phone was out of warranty this time)... My question is, within 1 year 2 months , twice the touch pad has problem. What kind of phone it is .... Please think before buying Nokia touch phones, I think still they are far behind in touch screen technology ( no offense :-)  )....
    Not only me, one of my friend also facing same problem with Lumia 720 ....

    Not beeing familiar with other countries consumer laws and consumer rights, I can only speak for my self and Norway. But as far as I'm concerned I would have expected extended rights for the new parts and the labour. - If however the fault can relate to the parts involved with the mentioned replacement.
    But if this is not possible in your country, there isn't much to do other than repair it for pay or leave it.

  • Is there a fix to touch not working? All updates are done. Intermittent problem

    Is there a fix to touch not working? All updates are done. Intermittent problem

    Do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.
    If that does not help, take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs check it out to make sure there is not a hardware issue.

  • Hp 430 laptop touchpad is not working afternet connecting rj-45 cable

    hp 430 laptop touchpad is not working after connecting rj-45 cable, Please help me.

    Hello 9560030067, and welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see you are having issues getting your printer to be recognized.  I would be happy to help you with that!
    First, I would suggest disconnecting the USB cable, and Uninstalling the Printer Software.
    Once it is uninstalled, reinstall the software.  Be sure not to plug the USB cable back in until the software prompts you to connect it.  Also, when plugging the USB back in, I would suggest plugging it into a USB 2.0 port, not a 3.0 port.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!
