Synaptics Image Pad Being Unresponsive

I’m having trouble with my image pad for my HP Envy 1430-TU Spectre Notebook. Every other day the image pad loses responsiveness from being unable to use “gestures” to scroll and zoom yet still being able to move the cursor and select things, to not working at all. When it stops working completely  I can’t even turn off or on the image pad by tapping the button that does this. Tried re-installing Synaptics PS/2 Port Clickpad driver, but problem was not solved.

Here are some older solutions to touchpad problems. Maybe something will click:

  • My iPod Touch 3rd Gen is having problems with the touch screen being unresponsive, too responsive, freezing and constantly resizing. Is this a common problem? Is there a fix?

    My iPod Touch (3rd Gen) is having problems with the touch screen being unresponsive, too responsive, freezing and constantly resizing. It varies between not responding when I tap the screen and acting as if I double-tap or tap and hold when I tap. Every so often it freezes for a minute or so and then comes back. The scren is constantly changing sizes too such that I often can't see most of the top status bar or other edges. This makes typing almost impossible, ruins most games and generally makes everything difficult, but otherwise the iPod is working correctly. Powering off, shutting down apps, letting it sit have not worked. This has happened once before months ago, but the issue resolved itself somehow. Is this a common problem? Is there a fix?

    Try this for the freezing

  • How can I prevent my images from being copied?

    This is a perennial question, but the simple answer is that you can't. It's impossible.
    Don't believe snake oil adverts for products that claim to prevent images from being copied. Once an image is displayed on a computer, there are numerous ways of copying it. "Solutions" that prevent users from right-clicking or pressing Print Screen can be disabled by turning off JavaScript in the browser; and screen grabbing software can easily make a copy of an image.
    If you want to show your photography on the web, but don't want others to steal your images, consider the following options:
    Add a watermark to your images.
    Embed copyright information in the metadata of your images.
    Save images at low resolution (72dpi is standard on the web, but useless for printing).
    The following image uses all three techniques:
    You can create a Photoshop action to watermark images. Use the File Info dialog box in Bridge CS4 to add copyright metadata to your images.

    I asked a question. Hans was kind enough to give me a solution, and for that I thank him! I have also learned a little more in the process!
    We have already established that the solution stops people right clicking on an image and saving the image (be it in Windows Explorer or not), but it has also been established that it is by no means a fool proof way of protecting images and that there are other ways of copying images from a webpage. However, it is another level of protection.
    Unfortunately, I do not want to watermark my images as I do not like looking as watermarked images myself. I also downsize my images for the web. I was just looking for another level of protection.
    Thanks for the input anyway!

    Hi,
    I would try a Safe Boot first.  (This will take longer than a normal Boot and you will need to Restart afterwards).
    If it were an older OS I would also suggest going to System Preferences > Displays and making sure the display is set to Millions.  (My MacBook Pro does not have this option in Snow Leopard so I did presume Snow Leopard does not have it).
    With some laptops there have been some issues with the cable up the back of the screen pulling loose with regular and frequent use of the lid, but this will not apply to you based on your specs.  (it does take time to appear and is also somewhat rare). However it seems enough contact with the camera can make it appear in System Profiler and power it on but not give a pic.
    If a Safe Boot does not work I would also try a PRAM reset.
    Shut down the computer.
    Restart it holding down Apple/CMD (or ⌘)+ALT( ⌥)+P+R Keys until you have heard three Start Up Bongs.
    This is actually "less" destructive in that it clears less memory items than Safe Boot but they are different enough to warrant trying.
    Do you have an older version of iGlasses installed ?
    The one for Leopard does not work for Snow Leopard.
    Do you have  Web Browser open ?
    This may point to  Google Video Chat Plug-in and Flash Conflict.  It would be rare to allow another app to access the camera even if not displayiong a Pic. 
    (Chrome Installs the Plug-in as does the standalone download).
    Knowing  what "any application" exactly you are trying might help us pin it down.
    Any additional downloaded  apps that can use the camera ?
    Do you happen to have something balck in front of the camera ?

  • Can I Stop my Images from being Copied from my Web Pages

    On some websites I visit, it prevents you from right clicking on the image and saving it. A message pops up saying the image cannot be copied.
    Would any of you kind folk know of a way I can stop my images from being saved from my Dreamweaver web pages?
    Many thanks in advance for your anticipated help!

  • How do I protect images from being downloaded in Muse?

    When creating a slideshow in Muse, how can I protect the images from being downloaded?

    Essentially, you can't.
    If something is available online to view, it can also be downloaded and there is little you can do to actually stop it.
    There are scripts that you can add to your site to disable "right click > save image" BUT someone who really wants the image can get around this using a variety of ways, including creen caps and looking at your code to determine the source where is image is hosted on your server.
    The best that you can do it watermark the images clearly and also imbed data into the image file. It won't stop anyone taking the images, but it clearly tracks the fact that you're the copyright owner. Do take note though, that someone who understands about this, can also remove these bits of data - but your average user wouldn't either know about it, or know how to remove it. This, however is one of the best ways to 'stamp' your ownership to an image.

  • Runtime Images are being loaded only when i move Mouse Over them

    Hi ,
    I am displaying Images on to a Datagrid at Runtime .
    The isssue is that Images are being loaded when i move mouse over the rows of DataGrid
    Please tell me , how to resolve this issue ??
    Thanks .

    If you know the size of the images, have the renderer return measuredWidth
    and measuredHeight that reflects the size of the image (or approximate
    size).  There should be past discussions on this topic.

  • RAW image is being opened in all Adobe programs cropped from left and right!

    I'm already asking this in After Effects community, but this problem is happening in Lightroom as well, and Photoshop.
    My 5Dm3 RAW images are being opened cropped. But Windows Photo Preview opens them completely.
    Please help if you can.

    Geoff the 5D MKIII was introduced about the time of the bug report now marked as "Implemented." I just found this post by Eric Chan on the Photoshop Family site from six months ago and it appears it isn't "implemented" for older camera models, including the Canon 5D MKIII.
    Eric Chan (Camera Raw Engineer) 6 months ago  
    Unfortunately, we can't change the existing 5D3 support (even though technically we know how to do it) because that would post a backward compatibility issue for the images that folks have already shot.  In particular, many 5D3 images that have already been cropped by the user in ACR/Lr would suddenly appear to have a different crop, and that would be far worse.  My suggestion:  If you have a 5D3, don't set the in-camera crop (always leave it to full 3:2 aspect ratio).
    Victoria Brampton suggests (15 days ago) using the DNG Recover Edges plugin-in, and stop using in-camera crop settings.

    Is there another way?

  • How do I protect an image from being downloaded?

    I want to be in a position to prevent images from being downloaded from a muse site. Is this possible?
    David

    Widgets are available from a couple different sources that disable right-click mouse functions on a web page. That prevents someone from right clicking an image and choosing "save image" options. Unfortunately nothing can prevent someone from grabbing a web page image using other methods, like taking screen shots or hacking the web browser's cache.
    Other alternatives:
    • Watermark your images using visible and/or invisible methods.
    • Limit the resolution and quality levels of the images you upload.
    • Bake other visual elements or user interface elements into the images, making visitor saved images either incomplete or just screwed up. They don't get a pristine image to try selling off to some stock photography company.

    Firefox keeps being unresponsive and I have to keep clicking on the main body of the window and wait for it to unfreeze

    It's probably down to one or two plugins (add-ons/extensions).
    Try starting firefox in safe mode and disable the plugins, etc.
