Trackpad response is failing .. why?

Hello everybody.
I'm sure this problem has come up and again but unfortunately I couldn't find a solution after looking around for 3 days.
My trackpad's response rate has turned terrible. I don't know what happened but I feel like it was because of an update.
I move my finger on the track pad and the mouse on the screen either goes too fast, or too slow, or stutters across the screen. Sometimes my multi-finger functions don't work. This is annoying. Help please!!

I've gotten this exact problem in the last week or two. Sometimes the trackpad is fine, other times it's like treacle, or staccato jumps across the screen. Sometimes I'll have one finger on the trackpad and the window I'm in will respond like I'm two-finger scrolling.
The oddest thing is how inconsistent it is. If it was a hardware problem, I'd expect it to just fail hard, but it works fine sometimes.
I can't remember what the last update I did was, could have been quite recently I've just been mad busy lately. Sorry, I have no solutions; I'm going to have to start using a mouse

    Here's a nifty agorithm to fill an array of primes, using a forever loop with a labeled continue statement, from Horton's Beginining Java:public class MorePrimes
      public static void main(String[] args)
        long[] primes = new long[20];    // Array to store primes
        primes[0] = 2;                   // Seed the first prime
        primes[1] = 3;                   // and the second
        int count = 2;                   // Count of primes found - up to now,
                                         // which is also the array index
        long number = 5;                 // Next integer to be tested
        outer:
        for( ; count < primes.length; number += 2)
          // The maximum divisor we need to try is square root of number
          long limit = (long)Math.ceil(Math.sqrt((double)number));
          // Divide by all the primes we have up to limit
          for(int i = 1; i < count && primes[i] <= limit; i++)
            if(number%primes[i] == 0)             // Is it an exact divisor?
              continue outer;              // yes, try the next number
          primes[count++] = number;               // We got one!
        for(int i=0; i < primes.length; i++)
          System.out.println(primes); // Output all the primes

    Trying to Email Photo Using Iphoto 09: Apple Event Handler Failed, WHY?
    This keeps happening. Please help me solve it

    This one comes up from time to time and it’s caused by a glitch in the AppleScript underpinnings that work in the background. Frankly, I’ve seen no solution for it and suspect that it would require a re-install of the System Software.
    Alternaive:
    Instead of making the email in iPhoto, add the photos to the email in Mail. Use the Photo Browser in the New Message Window and you have full access to the Library.

    You can even resize the pics in the New Message Window as you do in iPhoto.

  • "Cannot get mail, connection to the service failed". why and how do I repair it?

    "Cannot get mail, connection to the service failed". why and how do I repair it?

    Thanks. However...these links are to basic troubleshooting.  Good stuff, except I -- like it seems others -- have multiple email accounts coming into their iPhones (my case, iPhone 5 running latest version of iOS) that until this past Friday evening (September 12, 2014).... worked perfectly, then just all stopped.
    In my case, I also lost access to an internet forum I frequent multiple times daily.  All worked fine, until things abruptly stopped working the evening of September 12.
    Seems like anything with a stored login/password got hosed.
    I went into the profiles to make sure my passwords were still there (thought they may have somehow gotten wiped out), but they were there.  I re-entered them just in case, no change.
    Now just this morning, Sunday September 14, two emails from the same (employer) email account have trickled in.  But nothing from the others (gmail, yahoo mail).
    Spouse is having same issue on an iPhone 5.

    Have you tried all of the troubleshooting here?

    It would also help to head to Settings -> General -> Date & Time and make sure it is set to Automatic.  You could also try using Google's DNS servers as doing so has resolved the issue for a number of users.  Head to Settings -> Wi-Fi and tap the > next to the network you are connected to.  Scroll down to the DNS fields and enter in 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.

  • Application Import Fails - Why??

    I have transferred my portal from Linux (Ver 3.0.9.8.2) to Win 2K (Ver 3.0.9.8.2). All the application imports failed to actually provide the applications. They did however bring in the shared templates that the applications use. I cannot re-create the applications by hand because when I try the portal responds by telling me that they already exist. Subsequent attempt to import them again also states that they exist.
    Looking for them in the portal navigator - they do not exist.
    Looking in wwv_modules$ shows my components.
    We now have an exact copy of our Linux Portal on Win2K except for the fact that it has absolutely no functionality.
    Is there any way that we can fix our new portal on Win 2K before I go ahead and try the same thing on our new Linux Server.

    Carola,
    I have no idea why this is happening. You may send the application export file (or the export file for page 60 only) to [email protected] and I will check it.

  • Network daemon is slow to start and netfs fails, why?

    DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network netfs crond sshd alsa)
    If I have a network filesystem that needs the network (duh) to initialize
    during netfs, it will fail.   Why?  Because network is taking a while
    to actually create the network, and it is doing it asychronously.  What I mean is that
    the network script completes and the boot process then continues to netfs, but
    in actual fact, the network isn't up yet! 
    If I put code in the network script to make it wait for a few seconds before completing,
    in order to allow the actual network to come up, I can get the network to come up
    and be ready before netfs runs.  And netfs then runs fine and starts it's file systems.
    But, why is networking taking so long (like 6 seconds) to start, and why
    doesn't it block during the init process, so dependancies will be assured
    to have it when they run?
    I'm somewhat new to ARCH.  Came from Gentoo, don't remember this being an
    issue over there.

    It's wired, and static IP.
    However, I forgot to mention that I'm bringing up a bridged interface.
    BRIDGE_INTERFACES=(br0)
    bridge_br0=(eth0)
    br0="br0 192.168.0.40 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255"
    eth0="eth0 0.0.0.0 promisc"
    INTERFACES=(lo br0 eth0)
    Perhaps herein is the problem.....

  • DOWNLOAD ITUNES 7.6- RESPONSE "QUICKTIME FAILED TO INITIALIZE, ERROR 2096

    I just tried to upgrade to I-Tunes 7.6. Installation seemed to work, yet I get a response now (when I try to go into I-Tunes)- "Quicktime failed to initialize (error 2096)- please reinstall I-Tunes", and now I can't access I-Tunes at all. I've been browsing the discussion boards for an answer, but haven't located a good response yet. I have Windows XP on a Dell computer. Any solutions would be appreciated!

    Many thanks for your quick reply! However, in browsing through some old discussions (from back in Nov. 2007), I found this response which worked beautifully & I got everything back. Word to the wise...don't upgrade I-Tunes(read below):
    +I was having the same problem, i upgraded to the new iTunes & it wouldn't open cause of an error with Quicktime.+
    +On another topic thread, Rob Austin suggested to go to this website http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktime72forwindows.html+
    +IT WORKS!!! Just delete Quicktime from your computer & download Quicktime from the link & iTunes will re-open. I got all my songs back, everything was the same, even my playlists.+
    +Thanks Rob!!!+

  • Intermittent Trackpad response

    Has anyone experienced problems with the trackpad failing to respond for several seconds after a save, edit or window change? I can't quite characterize it yet as a function of any particular s/w or function but it is really driving me crazy. You never know when it will stop responding for maybe 10 sec's then return.
    G-5 Quad 2.5GHz, MacBook Pro 2.16GHz 2GB   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Hi All
    Even with today's "Apple Keyboard Update 1.0", they didn't update the Trackpad driver, which is a huge problem for me.
    Under XP, using BootCamp, I have no problem at all, of any kind, with the trackpad.
    Under Mac OS X, 10.4.6, with every available update, and with today's update, the driver com.apple.driver.AppleUSBTrackpad is still at Version 1.4.1a1.
    Alpha 1? Are you kidding me?
    The symptoms of the issue are just like at MacInTouch.com, viz:
    Every few minutes, the trackpad goes nuts. This lasts about a few minutes.
    What happens is that only a 1cm wide vertical strip, 3/4s of the way to the right of the trackpad, works. The rest of the trackpad does nothing. At all.
    When you get your finger inside this 1cm strip, the trackpad works, but as if it's on super-hyper-sensitivity mode: resting your finger on it results in an oscillating, twitching, mouse cursor. Move up/down, still ultra jittery. Move left and right (which is very hard, remember: this is a 1cm strip!) and it's ultra jitter mode.
    Then it all goes good, all of a sudden.
    I've tried every combo of settings in the trackpad panel, to no avail.
    So I bought the top of the line, every single option, retail price (!!) laptop, to have a trackpad that is worse than a $2 mouse I can get at the 7-Eleven.
    Bah!
