T430 touchpad has stopped clicking

I recently spilled a small amount of soup on my T430's touchpad- dumb, I know. but I cleaned it out as best as I could without taking it apart. However, after a night of letting it dry, the mouse refuses to click. The touchpad works fine, but neither of the buttons are working. Will I need to get the hardware checked out and cleaned in order to use it? And if so, is there any easy way to pop off the mouse buttons to clean under them?

Have you tried to roll back OS to earlier time? Check system restore tool and try to roll back OS two weeks back.
Please post the result.

My trackpad has stopped clicking

I have an older macbook I believe. I thas a solid bottom and is white with white keys. My trackpad has stopped clicking. I can move the mouse but I cannot click on anything. I have tried plugging in an external mouse and I have the same issue. I am not a computer expert so I have no idea where to go from here. Please help. Thanks.

When you say that it has a solid bottom I take that to be a uni body MacBook with a battery that you don't remove. Try resetting the SMC
Newer Mac portables with a battery you don't remove
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.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

TouchPad has stopped working in Satellite L300

Hi Xaxer, hi there,
as I dont know how to post a new topic, I just reply (I apologize for that way).
The touch pad on my L300 has stopped working. (Vista 32 bit). Fn and F9 does not change anything.
USB-Mouse works fine. Downloaded new touch-pad driver.
Touch pad is not shown in the device manager.
What should I do?
Any idea?
How can I check whether the tp-driver is installed properly?
Thanks in advance.
Heinz

> How can I check whether the tp-driver is installed properly?
Go to control panel -> mouse -> last tab (Advanced or Pointing device) -> Advanced button
There you should see all touchpad settings.

My Touchpad Has Stopped Working, Please Help

My touchpad has locked itself. I can't click even with the buttons that are below the touchpad, it doesn't scroll or move, it won't do anything whatsoever. It has done this before, but usually it just works itself out on its own after a few minutes of leaving it alone. But not this time, this time it's been like this for a few days already. I tried to do the F2/F9/F10 solution that was talked about in one of the topics I read, but...pressing F2 doesn't do anything on the splash screen for me, let alone be able to do the other stuff that was mentioned. System Restore also hasn't done anything. I have a wireless mouse for the time being, but I'd rather have my touchpad back if possible because...being a wireless mouse...it basically eats batteries like they're candy...so to speak. >.> So, here's my model's info, I hope you guys can help me with it. Toshiba Satellite C55-A5354Part NO. PSCF6U-04T00CWindows 8.1 64-Bit If more info is needed, let me know and I'll try to find it.

I have turned off auto update, I'm not sure where to go to uninstall an update though, I can turn it off but not uninstall, lol. But the last update was a couple of weeks ago and my mouse has been fine up until like three days ago, so I don't think an update caused it. I uninstalled the driver and let it automatically reinstall twice now, but nothing. Just in case it's helpful, here's the driver info too. Driver Name: Synaptics PS/2 Port TouchPadVersion: 17.0.10.51

Tx2 laptop touchpad has stopped working

Recently the synaptics touchpad on my tx2 1020ea laptop has spontaneously stopped working. I haven't changed anything before this issue popped up. I installed the latest touchpad drivers, and the touchpad started working again. However, after a shutdown it's back to not working again.
There appears to be two different states of non-workingness going on:
1) touchpad is non-responsive but the button to turn the touchpad on or off is still working (going from white to orange), the touchpad shows up correctly in device manager etc. but touchpad doesn't work.
2) where I am now, touchpad still isn't working but the on/off button isn't working either. To make matters stranger in control panel>mouse under the synaptics tab, nothing shows up, everything is greyed out. The Hardware tab in mouse settings shows:
HID-compliant mouse
Manufacturer: micorsoft
Location: on Microsoft eHome Infrared Transceiver (I know this ain't right)
Status: this device is working properly
I'm going to uninstall/re-install the synaptics drivers again, but I'm guessing the same thing will occur, touchpad working till i reboot the computer.
Any thoughts?

So I've been waiting for a reply that hasn't come but today something new and equally bewildering has happened, I restarted my laptop as my touchscreen had stopped working, as it frequently does. After the restart the touchscreen is working again, but for the first time in 2 weeks the synatpics ps/2 touchpad has appeared back in the device manager.
Synaptics PS/2 port touchpad
Manufacturer: Synaptics
Located on: Plugged into PS/2 mouseport
Status: This device is working properly
The synaptics icon also show in my taskbar, the synaptics tab on mouse settings is longer greyed out. It looks like its back to working as it should.
But it isn't, the on/off button has started working again, but the touchpad itself still does not register anything, it's still deader than Elvis, anyone have any ideas what's wrong. Of course this problem would only rear its head 4 weeks after my warranty expired, go figure.

My macbook mouse/touchpad has stopped working. After 5 minutes ,the mouse won't click and I have to shut down. What's wrong?

I have a white macbook, about 4 years old. Every time I use it, after five minutes, the mouse and touchpad stop working. You can still hear the click but it doesn't actually click anything on the screen, effectively freezing the computer. I have to just shut it down. What can i do about this?!? Thanks

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 this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in 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(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Synaptics touchpad 64-bit enhancements has stopped working.

Hi guys,
I recently bought new HP 15-r022tx Notebook PC (Product Number: J6M27PA) which comes with free dos, have installed windows 7 x64 and updated all drivers from hp online, after all latest update i get a error message on startup 'synaptics touchpad 64-bit enhancements has stopped working'.
have tried to configure mouse setting but wen i try to access mouse setting i get a error message 'unable to connect to synaptics pointing device driver'
have uninstalled and re installed the driver from hp support still the same problem.
so after some online search and no luck in any of them i continued using lap by closing the program on the first error message on every startup without any synaptics touchpad functions like two touch scrolling, zooming etc... but some times the cursor jumps around erratically and moves on its own with no contact in the touchpad, click options are not working wen cursor strats to move on its own, after some observation i noticed mouse works fine on every startup(by closing the program on error message without touchpads some special functions) until i right click it (sometimes after first click some times after many clicks) until i right click using the touchpad the mouse seems to be working fine but after i right click the mouse it goes to its own way.
any suggestions guys
thanks you guys.....

Hello Zman07,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I have read your post on how the TouchPad on your notebook computer is behaving erratically, and I would be happy to assist you!
To restore the functions on your TouchPad, I recommend uninstalling the driver from Programs and Features and installing this specific Synaptics TouchPad Driver. This parcel of software should be compatible with your current system.
If the issue persists, I also suggest following this document on Using and Configuring the TouchPad (Windows 7 and Vista). This should help adjust the TouchPad to your preferences.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

Can't get itunes. I get the following message when I click on either the shortcut or the program. It says ITunes has stopped working and I can either check on line for a solution and close the program or just close the program.

When I click on the itunes shortcut or the program I get the following message:
ITunes has stopped working. My two options are: Windows can check on line for a solution to the problem or close the program.
It seems that my entire library is not there. If I sync my ipod will it add it back into my library on the computer?
I've even tried installing again and nothing works. Tried the "repair" and it says that ITunes is loaded but I stil get the above error when I try to open the program.
Thanks

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

Does iTunes not see the phone?
If not, make sure you're running the current version of iTunes.
If you are running the current version and it still doesn't recognize it, see this: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
As for iPhoto, you will have to purchase a newer version. It's not a free upgrade. Or, you can use Image Capture, which is built into OS X, to import the photos.

Why can't I open iTune Store on my PC? When I click on the iTunes Store box, I get the message that the iTunes Store has stopped working. This happens everytime. What is wrong with my download?

My PC is running Windows 7. I have downloaded the new OS Version for iTunes onto the computer. It all works fine from the iPod Touch, but when I click the block for the iTunes Store, I get the message that "iTunes has stopped working". What is wrong? How can I fix it so I can purchase from the store on my PC instead of having to use the small keyboard on the iPod Touch?

There's an issue currently that a lot of us are experiencing in that we all get the error message "iTunes is currently unavailable; please try later"
It's an issue with Apple and we're awaiting an update re this
I've posted a topic in regards to this after having a long conversation with Apple support this morning and will be receiving a call from their tech team tomorrow to run through it further
As it stands iTunes cannot be accessed via ATV's and nor can it be streamed via AirPlay from iTunes to the ATV
However I can access all films/iCloud content via my Mac Mini with no issues!

A magazine's app on my iPad has stopped working. When I open the Newsstand folder and click on the app, the screen dims briefly, then returns to the Newsstand folder. The other app in my Newsstand folder (Wall Street Journal) opens without any problem.

A magazine's app on my iPad has stopped working. When I open the Newsstand folder and click on the app, the screen dims briefly, then returns to the Newsstand folder. The other app in my Newsstand folder (Wall Street Journal) opens without any problem, and this magazine's app opens just fine on my wife's iPad.
I have deleted the app and reinstalled it from the Apple store and that makes no difference. I have also done a hard reboot on my iPad with no result.
Any thoughts about what might be wrong?

Hey everyone in Apple world!
I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP! Yessssss!!!
I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
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 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.
I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process. Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal. No flashing yellow screen anymore!!
(Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
Let me know if this works for you!
