Three Finger Zoom

Anyone here who's having problem with the iPod touch 5th Gen, 3 Finger Zoom?
Before, it does work but a certain point, it stopped recognizing the 3 finger zoom. For me to be able to use the said function, i have to reset all the settings of the iPod then it will be ok but give or take atleast 1 week, it will stop responding to the 3 finger zoom again then I have to reset all settings and it will be a forever cycle.
I also tried testing the three finger recognition in the game OSMOS wherein you have to tap your 3 fingers at the same time to go to the Game Menu when you are at gameplay. And my hunch was right, it does not respond to my 3 fingers.
I also checked the triple click home button function. The Zoom was the only one checked among the items. I tried it but it didn't zoom. I also used the Assistive Touch and still no response.
Do you think it's a hardware or software issue? Any advice will be highly appreciated. Thanks.

I have no sen that problem posted here before

Three finger zoom fatally broken

For years, I have used the three-finger double tap to zoom the screen. It is now fatally broken.
For no reason, the screen zooms in and will NOT unzoom. Three-finger doesn't work. pinch and zoom, nothing. The phone cannot even be restarted, because the red swipe bar isn't visible. The only option is to do a hard reset.
And then after the restart, the screen is still partially zoomed in, although not to the point of being unusable.
I'm astonished this is so badly broken.
Any solutions, anyone?

I cannot replicate the experience you are reporting. Zoom works fine on both by iPhone 5 and iPad 2, both running 8.0.2.
When in Zoom mode, can you drag the screen around with three fingers? A double-tap with three fingers does nothing?

Three Finger Swipe to change Spaces

Hi,
I was wondering if there's any way to set up my macbook air to change spaces using a three finger swipe in the finder. I know I can use a three finger swipe to go forward and backward in safari as well as do some other things and I want to be able to use a three finger swipe in the finder to move around my available spaces. Is there any way I can make this possible?
Thanks,
John

This is now possible using MultiClutch, with one caveat. First, check out this link:
http://wcrawford.org/2008/02/28/everytime-i-think-about-you-i-touch-my-cell/
This works, but ONLY in cocoa applications, which Finder is not. Using MultiClutch will allow you to set up 3 finger swipes both left & right and up & down if you wish, along with allowing you to use rotate & zoom gestures as well in any COCOA application (Hint: for your specific Spaces request, set the gestures to be global binds, and NOT bound specifically to the Spaces application). I've personally set up rotate right & left gestures to move between tabs in Safari, which I absolutely love!
Anyway, because MC only works in cocoa applications, that means you will be able to use the gesture only if your currently selected program is a cocoa app.

One Finger Zoom Plugin For Web & Photo Browser - Multitouch Alternative?
one finger multittouch for 5800xm and n97 very simple to implement zoom/rotate control by doubletapping you set a control point and when you drag the control takes efect need just one hand to controll (multitouch needs two hands to control - you have to hold the device with other hand
develope it now and upload it to Ovi store, make it free or donationware

You can listen to whomever you wish.
But here's why I'm telling you what I am.
I've been doing this type of thing with still images from a Nikon D200 and now D300 and intercutting them to a video shot with a HVX200, and now HPX170 and HMC150 for more than three years.
FCP does not have the controls to achieve a professional result.
More than that, its ease in/out controls jump the image and provide sparse control over the areas of interest and the zoom/pans, among other things.
I love Noise Industries products. I've tested this one. It's better than some.
But the interface isn't conducive to a good workflow, and you need to render to see results.
I respect David's opinions on just about everything.
But I have tried just all of them - FCP, AE, Motion, Still Life, Moving Picture, PhotoToMovie, Lyric Media's product, and this one from Niclas's NI collection, etc.
FotoMagico is inexpensive and produces far better results than anything I've seen. And it is so much easier and intuitive to use.
And I always watch Boise State football.

Three finger to drag not working on some areas of lpx

For example:
These control knobs cannot be dragged with three finger.
Did apple intend to disable this feature on some areas of logic pro x or is it not?
If not, what can I do to enable it?

Use the "Pinch" and "Stretch" motions on your Trackpad and Voila! You can zoom-in and zoom out instantly.
I haven't experienced any issues with the 3-finger drag in Logic whether it me faders, regions, etc. Did you try deleting the Logic Pref file?

Three finger swipe in wrong direction

Hi!
While the two finger swipe/scroll is on "natural", the three fingers still swipe (scroll?) the old "unnatural" way.
Is this only for me? (you can check that by picking "three fingers swipe" and then swipe back&forth in Safari/iCal-weekview/etc.)
What can I do against it?
Background info:
I changed the feature "Swipe between pages" (under touchpad/more gestures) from "scroll left and right with two fingers" to "swipe with three fingers".
Reason: Even on Apple's own Website there is photostreams (or other features with scrollbars) where one needs to scroll left and right with two fingers (to see all pictures, the whole text etc.), but then two fingers also mean to swipe back to the last opened page, so that's what Safari does (instead of scrolling)!
Please read carefully, I get really annoyed when people teach me about how "natural" is more natural or that "Apple engineers know why they did it this way" or some other bull****.
Thank you so much for your help!!

I never knew this to exist in sys preference. Not sure how this would work since you are not highlighting anything, just selecting???

Trackpad three-finger swipe goes to wrong window

I'm using a Magic Trackpad with a MacBook Pro running the current Mac OS 10.8.4. But I've had this problem for at least a year, so I'm guessing it also affects the last couple OS versions at least.
I have the trackpad configured to trigger Back and Forward commands with a three-finger left/right gesture (System Preferences > Trackpad > More Gestures > Swipe Between Pages > Swipe With Three Fingers). I use these gestures to move to the previous or next web page in Safari and to move to the previous or next document in BBEdit and Xcode. Similarly, I also use a three-finger up/down gesture to switch between the header and implementation files in Xcode.
This all works great for a couple weeks, then suddenly something breaks and this happens: if I change the active window by any method (e.g., clicking the window, pressing Command-Tab, clicking the Dock icon), my three-finger gestures will still be targeted to the old window, as if it is still active. If I scroll in the new window with a two-fingered gesture, that will fully activate it and then the three-fingered gestures will be correctly targeted again. I've tried changing the trackpad settings and changing them back, quitting individual apps and sleeping/waking the computer. The only solution I've found to make the gestures work properly at that point is to restart the computer, which is pretty time-consuming given the number of things I'm usually working on at once.
Has anyone else seen this problem, and more importantly does anyone know a solution that doesn't involve restarting? Maybe restarting an individual process from the Activity Monitor?

JimG16,
I know it sounds silly but is the option for three finger swipe still checked.
System Preferences > Trackpad > More Gestures ( Tab ) > Swipe between full-screen apps.
Also on mine if I don't have multiple desktops created, Dashboard turned on, or on App in full screen mode it won't switch between them.
Summon Mission Control ( F3 on my keyboard ) > Along the top do you see Multiple Desktops or Apps in full screen.
Hope that helps,
Weston

Three finger swipe stopped working

My three finger swipe has stopped working for the last week. I have used it for a year and suddenly it is not working. I have tried togging it on and off in the preference pane with no change. Tested it in Safari and FF with no reaction.

Try doing a PRAM reset, the instructions are:
*Resetting PRAM and NVRAM*
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
3. Turn on the computer.
4. Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
5. Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
6. Release the keys.
Regards,
Roger

Three finger gestures not working on Mountain Lion

Since upgrade to Mountain Lion, gestures have become unreliable. Gestures for Mission Control, switching between full screen app, etc. (which are set with three fingre swipes) work sometimes but won't work most of the time. Anyone else facing the same problem?

I had this problem but I found it was the settings that changed when mountain lion was installed.
Mountain lion changed my three finger gestures to four finger gestures when swiping between full screen apps.
I found there were extra settings. Apparently when installing mountain lion my three finger gestures were changed to four finger gestures.

The three finger swipe left and right does not seem to work

Hi
I have been trying to do the left and right three finger swipe that allows you to move between applications to no avail. It just keeps switching between dashboard and one app even if I have 5 apps open at the same time. Snow Leopard has this feature where all the apps opened are shown when you do the swipe and you can choose the one you want. I think this is better but it doesn't work.
Any help will be appreciated.
Antonio

Such spaces actually use very little extra memory relative to the apps you have open to occupy those spaces. I would go out on a limb and say it doesn't matter whether you have one space for every application or all on the same desktop.
The limitation will come from the applications and the data you are crunching on them.
(But that's just a personal view, haven't run into any limits on my ow 4GB Macbook Pro so far)

Java causing three-finger tap to fail

I just recently noticed a really.... REALLY bad bug in Java on the mac. Confirmed it affects Safari and Chrome. Java is messing up the 3-finger tap gesture that looks up the definition of a word (a word tapped with three fingers... for those who are unaware... it's an awesome feature). When you do the three-finger tap gesture, the little pop-up window closes right away, sometimes instantaneously.
I last saw this bug in Lion.
It's now back in MOUNTAIN LION~!!!!
I figured it's Java because I also get the blinking graphics glitches in Safari and when I disable Java and Javascript, I can execute the three-finger tap gesture without the pop-up window automatically closing.
Also noticed this problem only happened after the last Safari 6.0.2 update but it also affects the gesture in Chrome for some really weird reason.

Found the solution to the problem: reinstall JAVA:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572
The link above gives you the standalone Java installer. For Pete's sake... all that digging around. There have been threads on this same problem and people asking how to de-install and re-install Java .... well there's the solution right above!

Two finger zoom in preview doesn't work

Just upgraded to a new macbook pro 2.8ghz.
all working fabulously, except one frustrating difference.
When I hit spacebar on a JPG for example, on my old machine I used to be able to two-finger expand the window to full screen using gestures on the touch pad. It no longer works.
Also, if I hit space bar on a PPT it will show a preview, but also when doing a two-finger zoom on touchpad, it used to expand to full screen on my old machine... now it leaves the window the same size, but expands the file within that set window...so frustrating, beacuse I have to scale the window myself... i want it to go full screen in both instances...
does this make sen

I'm having the same problem all of a sudden. I restarted Chrome and it was fine for two minutes and then it stopped working once again.

Three finger swipe in finder works intermitently

I'm confused slightly. I've got the the generation of MBA just before the new one that came out today with 4GB of RAM 13.3".
I upgraded to OSX Lion today and noticed that sometimes, when switching back to finder, the three finger swipe to go FWD or BCK doesn't work at all. I have to scroll up or down then left or right.
I'm hoping the OS just needs refined a little because it also seems like some of the window animations are choppy as well. Surely this upgrade hasn't made my three month old laptop obsolete.

Ya, I don't know what's causing it. It happens to me sometimes as well. It'll be working just fine and dandy, and then out of nowhere, it decides to stop working for a while or until I restart/logout and in.

Three finger swipe crashes applications (eg Firefox and Spotify)

I use the latest version of Lion (10.7.2) with a Magic Trackpad and ever since I upgraded to Lion the three finger swipe gesture results in crash in several different applications (e.g. Firefox 6+7 and Spotify). The crashes in Firefox is very annoying since I would like to use the gesture as back-forward navigation.
Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

Your suggestion of using the Console helped me to solve the issue. I noticed in the console logs that several applications complained about not being able to reach something related to "Library/InputManagers/MultiClutchInputManager". So obviously I hadn't removed all traces of the input tools I used before.
So I deleted two files and one folder in InputManagers folder (all files were all related to MultiClutch) and restarted the computer. Now after the reboot, Spotify doesnt crash and I can use the three finger swipe in Firefox to navigate back/forward.
Thanks for the suggestions, William Boyd, Jr.!

Three Finger Swipe on Finder

I'm using MacBook Pro Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013
After the install of Mavericks, three finger swipe doesn't work on Finder.
Trackpad Settings is right at how it should be (Swipe between pages is ticked and with Swipe with three fingers)
It works fine on Safari, System Preferences.
Apple took this away perhaps?
What happend to it?

The 2/3 finger left and right swipe doesn't go back/forward in Finder. Unless you were refering to something else?
