Using Apple's Magic Trackpad in Fireworks

I am using Fireworks CS6 on the MacBook Pro 15inch Retina and I find that pretty much all of the gesture based finctions of the trackpad including 2 finger scrolling navigation, pinch zoom and (Option+ 2 finger) zoom does not work. Is the trackpad's functionality simply not supported or is there a plugin or am I just doing it wrong?
Thanks folks

What was the answer Keith? I'd be interested to know.

  • Anybody using Apple's Magic Trackpad with LR?

    Howdy,
    The magic trackpad has been getting rave reviews from friends. Is anybody finding it to be especially helpful when using LR?

    but only want to see my Lightroom created slideshows.  Possible??
    I don't think so.  ATV's photo sharing only pulls from iPhoto or Photostream as far as I know.

  • Apple new magic trackpad: Am I the only one who can't pinch zoom?

    I'm tryung to zoom in or out using the pinch gesture in indesign CS5
    it works fine on the built in trackpad of my laptop (10.5.8) but on the magic trackpad paired to my new Imac i5 (10.6.4) it doesn't.
    Any ideas anyone?

    Well I've been up since 2am so I hope I get some sleep otherwise I'm going to turn on my iPad and stare at it without being able to read a word...or worse sleep right through FedEx coming by.
    If I happened to have a working printer at the moment I think I'd put one of those pre-signed things on the door. Of course if it's a new driver, as seems to happen frequently, they'll have to call first since they can never find me anyway (I've tried to correct Google maps but the corrections never stay...the funny thing is before Google maps they never had a problem it was easy enough to figure out there was only one house with a number that high, the next closest house being like the equivalent of a block and a half away, but now if its not on the map it can't exist). And yes I've tried putting various signs with the address down on the road but with the high winds, heavy snows, snow plows etc. they never last long or just aren't noticed even when painted in bright red . OK are you asleep yet??? No, okay well then let me again thank Apple for not doing Saturday delivery which isn't available here. That do the trick? Sorry don't know how to be more boring. Well unless you want to talk about Object C or something .

  • How do you select multiple words using a Magic Trackpad?

    I know how to select multiple words with my mouse, but cannot figure out how to do it using my new Magic Trackpad. Here's the deal:
    Let's say you want to select "cannot figure out how to" in the sentence above. With my mouse, I'd place the cursor somewhere over the word "cannot," double-left-click and keep holding the button down. Then, dragging to the right, it would select each word in its entirety as I moved along the sentence. I do this all the time since it is a very quick way to select text.
    Okay, so how do you do this with the Magic Trackpad?
    I try a similar behavior, but it doesn't work. If I double-tap on "cannot," for example, one of two things happens. Either only the word "cannot" is highlighted and dragging does nothing to highlight more text. Or, if I'm quicker with the drag (aka swipe) right, it will select one character at a time starting from the cursor position when I double-tapped and not entire words, as I want.
    I'm stumped. Anyone?

    Jeffrey,
    The only good way seems to be by using the physical click on the Trackpad. Double physical click then drag. Much the way it's done on the mouse.

  • Magic trackpad, Intuos4, Better touch tools and Photoshop issues

    I am using a new magic trackpad with an Intuos4 (most recent update) with Photoshop CS2. I used BTT (better touch tools) to designate upper left click for brush, and lower right click for eraser. Works great (little lag from trackpad) on my 2006 macbook.
    But after several swithces between brush and eraser, my Intuos4 pen stops drawing or erasing. The cursor still moves around, but I can't draw or erase. Is thre something I can do about this?
    I love using the trackpad with my left hand because I don't have to look down from the screen, and can keep my right hand drawing. Really effecient when it works. I checked the wacom forum and they said try moving the two pads farther apart.
    Any insight? I plan on updating computer and software. Maybe this is not a problem with a new iMac and Lion?
    Thanks!!!

    Is there any way to uninstall this update??
    Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
    The brute-force approach would be to reinstall the last version of Mac OS X.
    Another approach, although not necessarily for the faint at heart, is to look in /Library/Receipts/boms ("bill of materials", presumably) for a file named after the update, then look in it for the list of files updated as part of the update. I don't know if there's a user-oriented application that knows how to look into a "bom" file, but I was able to see that information with a "strings" command in a Terminal session.
    One last approach might be to look in /System/Library/Extensions for a "kext" file with a name and/or date that suggests that it was updated as part of the trackpad update.
    Once new and/or updated files have been identified, you could move them out of the directory where they are found. If a file has been updated, it might be important to replace it with the older version of the file, otherwise something important could be disabled.

  • Magic Trackpad: cannot pair; instructions wrong; no "Setup Bluetooth Trackp

    Brand new MacBook Pro 2.66GHz Core i7 running 10.6.3 as received from Apple.
    Magic Trackpad instruction book pg 4 is wrong; there is no "Setup Bluetooth Trackpad" button in the Trackpad preferences pane.
    Tried using the Keyboard pane; it just keeps spinning looking for a device -- but the power light on the Magic Trackpad does blink during this.
    Need the MTrackpad on the left since the computer is on the right & I've ruined my right thumb joint with 20+ years of trackpad use.

    I believe MT needed an update to work. Here is the update but note that you must be on 10.6.4 to apply it. If you just do a Software Update and move to 10.6.5, the support is built in.

  • Magic Trackpad and MAC OS X 10.5.8

    I just purchased a Magic Trackpad. I have Mac OS X 10.5.8. Apparently, I need MAC OS X 10.6.X Snow Leopard for Trackpad to operate.
    Where / How do I update from MAC OS X Leopard to MAC OS X Snow Leopard so I can use my new Magic Trackpad?
    Is there a free download...or do I have to purchase the Snow Leopard software?
    Thanks,
    Ken

    You can purchase Snow Leopard for $29 from the Apple store.
    Do note that Snow Leopard will only install on an Intel Mac.

  • Magic trackpad and mouse

    Can I connect and use both a magic trackpad and usb mouse at the same time?

    Duncan, I think you'll find that you use the the Trackpad so much that the mouse will just sit around unused.  That's what happened to mine.  It's always good backup though.

  • Magic Trackpad Problems

    Trying to use a new Magic Trackpad with an early 2006 iMac (10.5.5), I have found several problems.
    1. At first the trackpad felt as if it clicked when pressed down, now that does not happen.
    2. Initially, all seemed to work, now it only clicks. It will not drag, but scrolls with inertia and the two button click seems to work. It's now wickedly sensitive.
    3. In System Preferences it seems to still be looking for a Bluetooth track pad and mouse.
    I know there was an issue with USB-Overdrive but I do not think I have that. Just checked for new software needed with software update and found none.
    This certainly seems a bit buggy!
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    Art Robb

    Hi - Have you tried deleting the the Trackpad and then re-pairing it.
    You're right that USBOverdrive seems to have given some people grief - often gets a mention on here. It might be worth downloading one of these search utilities: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30079/find-any-file or http://download.cnet.com/EasyFind/3000-2248_4-8707.html and search again. Maybe there's something buried somewhere and either of these apps seems to do a much better job than the built-in search at hunting things down.

  • I have just purchased an Apple Magic Trackpad. I connected it to my Macbook to test it. Fine. But I want to use it with my IMac - and my IMac cannot discover it - even though it is turned on and the batteries are 100%. Why?

    Remove it from the Macbook first. BT devices may only be connected to one thing at a time.
