Trackpad stopped working (Yoga 11s)

Hi,
Can someone help me? my trackpad suddenly stopped working since yesterday but the touchscreen still works. I've tried to on and off my laptop but still does not work. I'm not sure if the update is the one to be blamed.
Thanks

Uninstall the synaptic driver and try running the generic driver (which is installed automatically upon reboot). If it works, then you know it is a diver issue.

Mid 2011 Macbook Air - Yosemite keyboard and trackpad stopped working, the only button that worked was the power button, only one USB port works.

I have a Mid 2011 Macbook Air.
Upgraded to Yosemite last week.
Three days ago I was using my Macbook Air for the first time since upgrading to Yosemite. I had been using my Macbook Air for approximately 30 minutes, I was using safari and the keyboard and trackpad stopped working (would not respond). The only button that worked was the power button.
I rebooted and they were still not working. I plugged in a USB mouse and external USB keyboard, only one USB port would work (the Left USB port if looking at the screen) so I had to swap between keyboard and mouse.
After logging in there is a bluetooth icon at the top of the screen with a sawtooth line through it. Bluetooth is unavailable and the bluetooth icon is missing from the system preferences menu.
If I run a hardware test by holding D (on USB keyboard) at startup it says that no problems are found and at the conclusion of the test the keyboard and trackpad start working again. When I log on the bluetooth is working again.
I shut down the Macbook Air and when I started it again the keyboard and trackpad and right side USB ports were all not working again. I logged in using the USB keyboard and mouse and the bluetooth not available sawtooth icon had returned.
I ran the hardware test again and at the conclusion of the test the trackpad and keyboard started working again.
I have tried deleting com.apple.Bluetooth.plist and com.apple.Bluetooth.plist.lockfile from /Library/Preferences/ and tried resetting SMC and Power Functions but this did not fix the issue. The only thing that seems to work is running a hardware test - obviously I don't want to do this every time I use the computer.
I do not believe any hardware is faulty/damaged - I think it has something to do with bluetooth/Yosemite.
I do not have the Macbook with me at the moment, if you have suggestions that I can try or additional checks/info you require please let me know and I can get back to you.
Thanks,
John

Hi!
I have exactly the same problem, and I can't find any solution.
I can't even track down the root of the problem: the Bluetooth/Wifi module? The trackpad? The keyboard/top case? The logicboard?
I've tried all the usual: SMC/PRAM reset, clean install, kext cache clearing.
Any suggestion is greatly appreciated!

The zooming function on the trackpad stopped working on my Mac Air OSX 10.9.3. I've already checked the trackpad preferences to make sure I didn't inadvertently alter something.

The zooming function on the trackpad stopped working on my Mac Air OSX 10.9.3. I've already checked the trackpad preferences to make sure I didn't inadvertently alter something. It worked fine in the morning then when I woke my computer in the afternoon the zoom no longer worked. I use this function constantly so I hope something is not broken.

Where is zooming not working?

The left side of my trackpad stopped working on my macair

the left side of my trackpad stopped working on my macbook air,how to fix?

1) System Preferences > Trackpad > Point & Click > Secondary click > (make sure it is not set to a corner).
2) Bring your machine in to Apple and have them check to see if your battery is swollen

Center of trackpad stopped working after updating to 10.7.3

I have a 15 inch mid 2011 Macbook Pro model and I have just updated my OS to Lion 10.7.3. from 10.7.1. After the setup was complete, my trackpad stopped working properly. The center of the trackpad does not work and is unresponsive, however, when i touch the right or left sides, it works fine.
Is there a solution to this? I called apple care and they tried resetting my RAM and my management settings but it didn't help.
Let me know if you need anymore information

Here is something to try. Boot into the Recovery HD by holding
down Command+R when booting. Select the get help online option.
It initially opens Safari with a local web page, but you can use
the bookmarks on the bookmark bar or even enter a website.
Many extensions may not be available but it could tell you if
it is your Lion install that is a problem or perhaps a hardware
problem.
If you can browse around in this mode, then it could eliminate
any possible hardware issues. If you still have problems, then
the issue could possibly be hardware/driver related.
Give it a shot and see what happens.

Why does my trackpad stop working, the batteries are fine.

Why does my trackpad stop working, the batteries are fine.

Try expanding your question a little bit.... how is it not working? Just saying it "stopped working" isn't really saying much.
Like does it work sometimes and it intermittendly stops? Is the light on the power button not on?
Does it sometimes not click things? (always remember the actual trackpad buttons are actually on the buttom of the trackpad so you have to give a decent click on the pad to make it work)

HELP! In middle of upgrade to windows 8 and keyboard/trackpad stopped working!

Hey all, new mac user here. Just bought a new macbook air 13" 2014 model. I succedded in installing windows 7 via bootcamp via a usb drive and was in the middle of installing a downloadable windows 8 upgrade (at a preferences page when they ask you to select your favorite color) when my macbook's keyboard/trackpad stopped functioning. I plugged in a usb mouse and that would not work either. I have absolutely no clue as to what to do next. If I had to install some driver or thing please tell me how to cancel the windows 8 install and return to windows 7. Thanks for all your help strangers

I was not able to find any drivers specifically for the web cam. I did find software to use the camera, but that was all I could find.
However, I do have a question about the Windows 8 upgrade process that was used.
Did you do an in-place upgrade or a clean install of Windows 8?
Go back to device manager. Is there anything here at all in an other category indicating it is having some type of an issue?
There are certain events that will need to happen.
Go to the start screen and search for uninstall a program. Select this option in the settings category.
This should take you to the Desktop app and show the familiar uninstall a program feature from Windows 7.
Select add/remove Windows Components on the left.
Is Framework 3.5 checked here? If not, enable this and install it.
Then, install the HP framework which is needed for some HP programs. This is a Windows 7 installation, but it should go through.

Once that is finished, reboot the system.
Let me know what happens.

Keyboard, trackpad stops working after unfolding

I got a brand new Macbook Air the other week.
I noticed that sometimes, after folding the computer (with the OS running), then unfolding it - the keyboard and trackpad are not responding at the login screen. Actually if I press the keyboard it lights up properly but there is no access to the system. The only thing that works is the power button, so every time I have to power down the computer, then back on again.
Is this a know problem or should is my computer broken?

So I did a SMC reset a while ago when the problem occurred again. The computer rebooted...
I'm not sure if this changed anything, because I didn't have any problem again until a minute ago when the same thing occurred again. Of course, I haven't done a Pram reset but I just get the feeling that... something is broken. :-P
What I'm wondering is:
- does this occur to a lot of people (only me?)
- if the above is true, do you all put up with it, or do you try to get a new computer/have it fixed with support?
I did have a problem with my iMac that I bought 1 1/2 year ago. Suddenly the disc drive just plain stopped working (1-3 months after purchase), no suggestions worked at all and there is a thread around here with tons of people with the same problem (believe me, the disc drive in iMacs at least are of very low quality). They suggested to have the computer replaced (as did the woman at the Apple Store) - sure that would be possible if I could put up with not having access to my workstation for a couple of weeks while it's on repair/replace trip. But unfortunately I can't just sit around doing nothing for 2-3 weeks, I need that computer for my job.
I was deeply dissatisfied with Apple's non-handling of the issue, and so were everyone else with the same problem. Eventually the 1 year warranty ended and so here I am with my iMac, disc drive broken.
Sooo, here I am again, with my second Apple computer in life, and am just worried what will happen next. Is this something else that I'll just have to put up with, or will Apple fix it for me, or will I have to pay additional money to have this thing fixed?

X1 Carbon touchpad and trackpad stops working.

Received my new X1 Carbon 2014 this week. After only two minutes of use, the trackpad and toucphpad stopped working.
I hade to use an external mouse, and even after all driver updates it still didn`t work.
If I restart the machine, sometimes the track-touchpad will work, but suddenly it freezes up again (after only minutes of use), and I will have to restart to fix the problem. Have used it for 5 hrs now, and how probably restarted about 30-40 times.
Anyone know what is causing this problem and/or how I can fix it?
//alex

Same issue here.
Bought my X1 carbon 20A7 last month.
The touchpad and trackpoint stop working after a while. Sometimes after minutes of use, sometimes after half an hour. When I close the lid, to let it go to sleep, and wake it up again they both work again. Another interesting (might be a coincedance) issue is that when I wake the laptop up after this has ocurred, the fingerprint reader does not work to log back on.
I have done a fresh install of windows 8.1 and updated all windows and Lenovo drivers.
I hope this gets solved quickly. It's kind of ridiculous for such a premium laptop.
Lenovo?

My MacBook trackpad stopped working randomly today but I didn't do anything to damage it. I just upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 last night, but it worked fine last night. What is happening?

Hi,
So I have a late 2006 1.83 ghz Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook A1185. And last night I upgraded my software to Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8. And then this morning when I went to start doing work on it, my trackpad wouldn't allow me to click on anything. It would only scroll my little mouse icon around, so pretty much making my trackpad useless:/ So then I kind of had a panic attack and rebooted at least 10 times (no joke), and then remembered I had a external mouse I could use to plug in. So I plugged that in, and it worked fine as long as I didn't touch the trackpad at all. And then I got annoyed of that because it started to hurt my wrist, so I took out my battery(6 month old 3rd party battery), and then my trackpad started to work? I was slightly aggravated, and confused. So then I put the battery back in, and it stopped working again. So I am puzzled if it is just I need a better battery? Or to replace my trackpad and keyboard? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, so thank you in advance:)
Thanks

Ok, that's what I have done... I have Snow Leopard Installed, 10.8.6 and it's got Boot Camp 3.0.4... my questionis the Mac Windows Install Drivers you add after installing Windows. Windows looks terribly awkward and I'm guessing it has something to do with the ATI graphics card sofware the mac disk installed. Is is ok to use the one I created years ago? I can't seem to find a place to create a new one using the 10.8.6 and 3.0.4.
When I orignially installed Boot Camp you had to create a disk using Boot Camp that you installed in Windows after the initial OS installation.

Power button not working Yoga 11s

My yoga 11s went into sleep mode while plugged in sitting on my desk yesterday now the power button is not working. The light of the power button and the battery are on, but the screen will not turn on.

Dear aanelson03
Welcome in lenovo community
Most probably the issue is with the power adapter . have you tried the charger with another unit if possible .
i recommend to hold on the power button for approx 15 sec and check if the unit will turn on or not .
if the issue still exist so please contact authorized lenovo service center for checking
Let us know
Thanks

Windows sensor button on monitor stopped working - Yoga Pro 2

I have had my Yoga Pro 2 all of 3 days, and today the sensor button located on the monitor that brings you to the windows start screen has stopped working. When I purchased the laptop, the sensor worked fine - it vibrated when touched and brought me to the start screen. Now, nothing happens. I have installed the 2 updates I was prompted to install, could this be the issue? Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Dear Dettraka
Welcome in lenovo community
Have you tried to reset the machine to the factory setting ?
Thanks

Magic Trackpad stopped working, replacement won't connect

I've been using a Magic Trackpad with no problem since it was introduced 2 months ago. Last week it stopped working. Took it to the AppleStore this morning where (as on my Mac Pro) it seemed to be announcing its name but would not pair. So they replaced it with a new one.
However this will not pair either. Bluetooth preferences says there is a trackpad connected but not paired, even when the trackpad is switched off. I cannot delete the trackpad from the list to try again from scratch. Wireless keyboard and mouse are working fine.
Any thoughts anyone?

Oops, answering my own question: restarting the Mac got rid of the spurious 'connection' and the trackpad then paired OK.

Macbook Air 2010 trackpad stop working when touching case (palm rest)

My MBA 2010 A1369 had demaged keyboard and trackpad by liquid. I got used whoel top case and replace. (not myself)
Seller claimed it is ok but we face one problem. when I touch case (palm rest) trackpad stops responding. When on one side partly when with both hands then completely. Even when touching case from side. Even when case is comered by paper. So it strange behavior.
Both cases were from A1369 model but on mine was black plastic foil over part of keyboard while on other not. So I am not sure there could be some other differences that could cause this.
Would anybody has any suggestion where could be problem? Wrong contact bad insulation somewhere or faulty trackpad.
Thanks a lot.
Frantisek

I reply by myself. Problem was in trackpad. I tried another one and it is ok now. Previous one probably suffer some liquid demage on sides.
