Trackpad keeps bringing up various menus

when lying down, with knees bent up, the laptop is almost impossible to use. basically any click that is made brings up a menu. typically if i am working with many windows open and attempt to minimize using the double-click on the top of the application window- i get a various menus (depending on which type of window i am trying to minimize).
my trackpad settings are:
One Finger- Tap to Click- checked
One Finger- Dragging- checked
sounds like others are having problems with the trackpad registering clicks, mine just goes into Menu ****

Just incase anyone else gets this kind of problem I think I know what caused the kernel panic on my MacBook
I wiped my MacBook and reinstalled snow leopard os from scratch. I then put iTunes back and all my photos on iPhoto and all was fine for a week. I then started to install a couple of other software applications and all was fine.
Then I went to do some online banking for the first time since the new install. I was asked to download rapport for added security in which I did. I installed this and within 5 minutes I got the error message come back. I have uninstalled rapport and all seems to be running fine again. Maybe coincidence but I have searched and found others have had problems with MacBooks when they have installed this software.

    Get the redeem code from the KLove page:
    http://www.klove.com/music/store.aspx
    ...and enter it into the Redeem Code box in the iTunes Store.
    You will have to sign in to your iTunes account.
    It worked fine here.  If that doesn't work for you, let us know what went wrong.

    My iPad mini, iOS 8.2 continuously keeps bringing up the message sign into iCloud. However, the account it wants me to sign in to is not mine but my mums, and when i try to delete it it will not let me.

    You might need her to sign in to it and then sign out.

  • Various menus (incl. Netflix) not shown anymore

    I've had the Apple TV for a while and have used it mainly for watching movies on Netflix.  However, today I turned it on and various menus are missing, including Netflix under the Internet menu.
    on the General menu, the software says its up-to date (iOS 4.3).
    The WiFi is working fine.
    I have no clue how to troubleshoot this.

    I just reset all my settings (not a full restore) and the "movies" tab, along with the rest of the tabs in the internet tab (such as netflix) are available once again. No idea what caused this but glad things are working again.

  • Why does my trackpad keep losing connection

    why does my trackpad keep losing connection

    I am using Mountain Lion on a 2011 Macbook Pro and this is happening to me.
    The notebook never used to drop the connection on Snow Leopard or Lion as far as I can remember.  At first it was fine on Mountain Lion as well I think, but after the last couple updates the connection to the trackpad is gone when it wakes from sleep.  Dropping down to Bluetooth and choosing connect does not help.  It must be deleted and repaired each time under sytem preferences and bluetooth settings.  Batteries are fine, Apple rechargables, lights up green when tap button.  I also have an Apple keyboard used for this notebook and that never loses connection.  Just the trackpad, and only after the most recent updates the past month or so.  It pairs fine at first, then the connection is gone and I can't get it back without very inconvenient deleting and repairing.
    I seem to remember it happening shortly after a long update.  I am currently on 10.8.2.

    You can log out of the account on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then tap 'sign out' on the popup - you can then sign in with your account/
    If you synced any of your mum's apps to the iPad from your her computer then they will be tied to her account, so only her account will be able to download updates to her apps

  • I am trying to sync my music from my computer to my iphone 6 but my computer keeps bringing up an error box "computer not authorized" but it is authorized. Please help!

    I am trying to sync my music from my computer to my iphone 6 but my computer keeps bringing up an error box "computer not authorized" but it is authorized. Please help!

    I have a pc and am trying to get my music through my iTunes on my computer.  I didn't have any trouble syncing my iphone 5S but can't get it to sync with my 6. OS 8.1.3
    I open iTunes on my pc, plug in my phone, then I click on the picture of a phone on the upper left hand corner of my music library. Then I get a box of options with sync at the lower right.  I have clicked "automatically sync when phone is plugged in" and have also tried to do it manually by checking specific songs and albums.  Every time I hit sync the box pops up that says, "The iPhone could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPhone.  To authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes store choose Store>Authorize This Computer."
    I took those steps and a box pops up that says "this computer is already authorized."
    I have my recently purchased music on my phone that came through the cloud when I restored my phone. But I want my old music from CD's that I put on my iTunes library in my computer.  I had all of this music on my old phone.
    Thank you so much for your time!  I'm obviously not very good at this!

  • We removed Pages from the computer, but now we can't open Word documents directly. The computer keeps bringing up an alert that it can't find Pages to open the document.

    We removed Pages from my husband's computer, but now when he tries to open documents that were created in Word, we can't open them directly, only through the Word Dialogue box. The computer keeps bringing up an alert that it can't find Pages to open the document.

    Select one of the documents. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Open With panel select Word from the dropdown menu then click on the Change All button. This should fix the problem.

  • I have changed my email address and apple ID online, but the iPad keeps bringing up the old address and will not log into my apple ID

    I have changed my email address, and apple ID online, but my iPad keeps bring up the old address and will not log into my Apple ID

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi there cherylakashortee,
    Out of curiosity, have you tried a battery pull yet? While the phone is on, simply remove the battery, for good measure, wait a full minute, then reinsert the battery and wait for the device to reboot.
    Does that help? If not, let us know what operating system you're running on your phone. You can get this info under Options > Device > About Device Versions, or by typing "myver" in a text box (e.g. email or BBM).
    If you want to thank someone for their comment, do so by clicking the Thumbs Up icon.
    If your issue is resolved, don't forget to click the Solution button on the resolution!
